The Fifth Incarnation Arrives

What did 270,000 a day mean?

That was 8.1 million a month.

That was 98.55 million a year... an income of nearly a hundred million!

It was already comparable to an entire year's earnings for a major lineage... and it was pure income, with no costs whatsoever!

"This was only from slaughtering four strongholds... If I went through all hundred-plus of the Meng Lineage's strongholds and slaughtered them all, then that really would be... tsk, tsk, tsk."

Of course, Su Zhan knew that was impossible.

He had succeeded today only because he had caught them off guard, killing so many Martial Artists in one go and reaping a massive haul.

Once they became vigilant afterward, or brought in Martial Master-level help, both his efficiency and income would definitely plummet!

"But I've only harvested four strongholds so far. With the Meng Lineage's arrogance, coupled with the Lin Lineage's counteroffensive momentum, they won't react anytime soon... While I have this window, every one I kill is profit, every day I kill is profit!"

Su Zhan's eyes flashed. "Once I use these spoils to grow stronger, even if they send Martial Masters to protect them, I can kill the Martial Masters too!"

With so much wealth in hand, why worry about his strength not rising quickly?

As long as he exchanged all of it for high-grade pills, Spirit Weapons, Fierce Beast Blood... Su Zhan's strength could undergo an epic leap in minutes!

"Blood Consumption, stop for now."

"Sell off all the spoils we harvested today, along with everything we've accumulated ourselves. Convert all of it into Gold Coins!"

Su Zhan ordered.

Blood Consumption: "Yes, Boss!"

An hour later.

250,000 Gold Coins were in hand.

Obviously, the actual amount had differed somewhat from Su Zhan's estimate... but it was still acceptable.

Including the money he already had, Su Zhan now possessed 260,000.

Next came the spending.

"Fifth-grade Pills, the 10,000-per-pill kind. Give me sixteen first!"

Of his five cultivation methods, four could consume pills, so naturally he had to buy more.

"Two of the cheapest Top-grade Spirit Weapons. 40,000 each!"

That left 20,000 Gold Coins.

"The cheapest B-grade Fierce Beast Blood costs 1,000 Gold Coins per drop. Give me ten drops first!"

"Then one drop of the cheapest A-grade Fierce Beast Blood, at 10,000 Gold Coins per drop!"

Just like that.

All 260,000 vanished in an instant, spent down to the last coin.

"Come on, everyone. Enjoy this delicious feast!"

As Su Zhan silently gave permission.

The next second, the cultivation methods began devouring frantically.

"Ding! Basic Qi and Blood Method consumed 1 of your Fifth-grade Pills. Cultivation accelerated by 100 times. Current Cultivation Multiplier: 509.12!"

"Ding! Nine Heavens Thunder Fire Saber consumed 1 of your Top-grade Spirit Weapons. Cultivation accelerated by 50 times. Current Cultivation Multiplier: 157.91 times!"

"Ding! Gilded Jade Body consumed 1 of your Fifth-grade Pills. Cultivation accelerated by 50 times. Current Cultivation Multiplier: 219.5!"

"Ding! Bloodthirsty Rampage consumed 1 drop of your A-grade Fierce Beast Blood. Cultivation accelerated by 30 times. Current Cultivation Multiplier: 207.96!"

"Ding! Universe Wind Thunder Concealment consumed 1 of your Fifth-grade Pills. Cultivation accelerated by 20 times. Current Cultivation Multiplier: 44.7 times!"

"..."

"Ding! Basic Qi and Blood Method has reached 400 times cultivation acceleration. [Cultivation Method Incarnation—Fourth Stage] unlocked!"

"[Cultivation Method Incarnation—Fourth Stage]: Existence duration extended to 12 hours!"

"Ding! Bloodthirsty Rampage has reached 200 times cultivation acceleration. [Cultivation Method Incarnation—Second Stage] unlocked!"

After one round.

Every cultivation method received a massive increase to its multiplier.

However, after letting the cultivation methods eat just one round, Su Zhan decisively stopped them.

He gave all the remaining Fifth-grade Pills to Universe Wind Thunder Concealment alone!

Though the other cultivation methods were covetous, they knew this was the Boss's grand plan, and every one of them chose to agree... If they could not eat today, then they could just eat tomorrow!

Universe Wind Thunder Concealment: "Thank you, Boss!"

Very soon.

"Ding! Universe Wind Thunder Concealment has reached 100 times cultivation acceleration. [Cultivation Method Incarnation—First Stage] unlocked!"

The fifth incarnation had been formed!

Su Zhan's eyes flickered.

"Lei Yin!"

"From now on, your codename is Lei Yin! You can come out now!"

With a thought from Su Zhan.

A brand-new humanoid phantom outline abruptly appeared beside him... Unlike the other cultivation method incarnations, this incarnation clearly possessed feminine features. Her curves were flawless, full where she should be full and lifted where she should be lifted; calling her figure devilish would not be an exaggeration.

Yet there was also something jarring about her.

Lei Yin was a whole head taller than the other cultivation methods, standing at nearly 2.4 meters!

"It seemed that when Nine Fire and Sanyu rose in grade, their heights increased accordingly... Frenzy Blood was also the tallest one present from the moment he appeared."

"So a cultivation method's grade determines the incarnation's height!"

"If I get an even higher-grade cultivation method in the future, will a giant appear before me?"

As Su Zhan examined her closely.

A streak of white light had already emerged in Lei Yin's eyes, and she immediately came alive... Like the other cultivation method incarnations, she lowered her head and inspected herself carefully, her heart full of disbelief.

Lei Yin: "I really came alive... I can see and touch everything too... Amazing, truly amazing!"

Nine Fire: "That's not enough. Fighting people to the death is the real thrill!"

Sanyu: "Exactly, especially when you bully those little brats beneath your realm... Hehehe!"

Frenzy Blood: "Your aura... Even with No Level, you're this formidable. Earth-grade truly lives up to its name!"

Blood Consumption: "The innate advantage of an Earth-grade truly is extraordinary. No Level, yet your strength is not the slightest bit inferior to ours!"

"Lei Yin, this set of Spirit Weapons is yours!"

Su Zhan directly tossed out a set of High-grade Spirit Weapons he had long prepared. "Get familiar with them first. Once I leave later, wait for my orders before setting out."

"You'll be responsible for Stronghold No. 19. It's a little far away, so you'll probably only make it there today... Start the real slaughter tomorrow."

Lei Yin: "Alright!"

At this moment, Lei Yin had already developed the impulse to obey Su Zhan.

If she had previously been doubtful and resistant... then now that she was truly standing here and could feel everything around her, Su Zhan was practically a god in her eyes!

Naturally, every word Su Zhan said became her highest command!

Su Zhan: "Come on, everyone. Report your respective times now!"

Blood Consumption: "Boss, I only need less than four days now!"

Nine Fire: "Boss, I still need eighteen days!"

Sanyu: "Hehe, Boss, mine dropped sharply to under seventeen days this time. This feels amazing!"

Frenzy Blood: "Boss, I have two days left!"

Universe Wind Thunder Concealment: "Boss, I only need nine days!"

The time was drastically shortened once more.

"Tomorrow, we'll do it again!"

Elsewhere.

The Meng Lineage.

"Four C-grade strongholds were attacked?"

Meng Qianqiu narrowed his eyes. "Did you see clearly who did it?"

"Patriarch, they did not see clearly at three of the strongholds. Only one stronghold saw that it was someone wearing a Black Cloak and a White Mask," the subordinate said with a nod.

"Playing mysterious games."

Meng Qianqiu took a disdainful puff of his cigar. "Pass down the order. Whoever kills this person will receive a reward of ten thousand!"

"Yes!"
