Flying through the Dark Universe was very dull. With nothing else to do, Chu Yuan cultivated the entire time.

After his bloodline transformed, his cultivation efficiency advanced by leaps and bounds, and he could feel the pleasure of growing stronger at every moment.

He was deeply immersed in that pleasure, unable to pull himself free.

Eleven days passed in the blink of an eye. The Dragon Abyss returned to the Primal Universe, and a planet shimmering with multicolored light appeared ahead, with two moons beyond it.

"We've arrived at Qiu Long Star."

This was not Chu Yuan's first visit to Qiu Long Star. This planet was far more prosperous than Water Dragon Planet, and even a hundred times more prosperous than the Leinuo Family's ancestral planet.

All because this planet's lord was a Domain Lord Level expert, someone powerful enough to establish a low-level Universe Country.

The Dragon Abyss flew toward Qiu Long Star. Through the external view simulation, Chu Yuan saw Qiu Long Star's multicolored atmosphere.

"Guidance signal received."

Feiluan piloted the spaceship toward the planet's docking port, where countless spaceships were packed together.

There were large transport vessels over ten thousand meters long, as well as private spaceships only a dozen or so meters long.

New Longyuan was a C9-Class Spaceship, so it docked in Zone C.

Chu Yuan disembarked with eight bodyguards and two Flowing Silver Guards. A staff member in a gray uniform, with bull horns growing from his head, flew over and said humbly, "Respected sir, welcome to Qiu Long Star. The docking fee for your C9 spaceship is 900 Black Dragon Coins per year! Stays of less than a year are charged at 900 Black Dragon Coins. Here is your docking card."

Chu Yuan took the docking card and casually tossed over a Ganwu Coin. "Keep the change," he said evenly.

The bull-headed man's eyes lit up at the sight of the Ganwu Coin. He hurriedly caught it and bowed repeatedly. "Thank you, honored guest. May you have a pleasant journey."

Watching Chu Yuan's party leave, the bull-headed man was wild with envy. "Eight Star Level bodyguards, two Flowing Silver Guards, and even a C9-Class Spaceship. He must be the young master of some great family."

"He's so lucky. Why couldn't I have been born with that kind of luck?"

He was merely a planetary level nine warrior, not even qualified to serve as a slave to such a young master.

The party flew for half an hour before finally entering the city. Chu Yuan headed straight for the Rare Treasure Shop.

Inside the shop, a green-skinned attendant wearing green clothes and a green hat saw Chu Yuan's party and hurried over to greet them.

He had worked in this business for two hundred years and had an exceptional eye. He could tell at a glance that this was a young master from a great family-a major customer.

"Respected sir, how may I serve you?"

The attendant bowed and asked with a smile.

Chu Yuan did not look at him. He swept his gaze around and said evenly, "Where is your manager? I have a big deal to discuss with him."

"A big deal?!"

The attendant's heart trembled. He certainly did not think the young master before him was making empty boasts.

"Please wait a moment, sir."

He hurried away, then ran back shortly afterward and said respectfully, "Please come inside to discuss the details, sir."

In the reception room, Chu Yuan met an old man over three meters tall whose face was covered in spots.

The old man bowed slightly to Chu Yuan. "Honored guest, my name is Lan Tuo. I will personally attend to you."

Chu Yuan nodded and sat on the sofa. The Flowing Silver Guards stood on either side of him, while the eight bodyguards stood behind him.

Chu Yuan looked at Lan Tuo and said, "I have a few Tier 3 Force Weapons to sell. If your price satisfies me, I'll sell them all to you."

Lan Tuo's eyes lit up. Tier 3 Force Weapons were hot commodities.

Even the cheapest could sell for billions of Black Dragon Coins, while the most expensive could fetch hundreds of billions.

And there was more than one. This truly was a major customer.

He hurriedly said, "Rest assured, honored guest. I will offer the highest price. May I ask which Force Weapons you have?"

With a sweep of Chu Yuan's hand, ten Force Weapons appeared out of thin air.

The Cloud-Breaking Blade was a Tier 4 Force Weapon. Selling it would attract too much attention, so he would not sell it for now.

Chu Yuan had also kept a suit of Dark Flame Armor and a Fire Prison Blade for his own use, bringing out all ten remaining weapons.

"Storm Blade, Thunder Pattern Armor, Purple Lightning Blade, Cloud-Piercing Shuttle... these... these are all top-grade Tier 3 Force Weapons!"

Lan Tuo sprang off the sofa in excitement, completely unable to remain composed.

He scanned the ten weapons with the device on his wrist.

[Beep. Storm Blade condition: intact.]

[Beep. Purple Lightning Blade condition: intact.]

[Beep. Thunder Pattern Armor condition: intact.]

"Honored guest, all ten Force Weapons are intact. Our Rare Treasure Shop is willing to purchase them at market price."

Lan Tuo said respectfully, "The Storm Blade, hundred million Black Dragon Coins; the Thunder Pattern Armor, hundred million Black Dragon Coins; the Purple Lightning Blade, hundred million Black Dragon Coins; the Cloud-Piercing Shuttle, hundred million Black Dragon Coins..."

"For ten Force Weapons, the total is 2.5 trillion Black Dragon Coins."

"Too low."

Chu Yuan shook his head slightly. "I want 2.6 trillion. Also, convert it into Ganwu Coins for me."

"Well..."

Lan Tuo hesitated for a moment, his star level eight brain working at lightning speed to calculate the profit.

There's never any trouble selling Tier 3 Force Weapons, and their prices rise like boats on a rising tide. If we keep them in the shop for a few hundred years, we can make at least several hundred billion Black Dragon Coins in profit.

Having finished his calculations, Lan Tuo no longer hesitated. He nodded. "All right, 2.6 trillion Black Dragon Coins it is. Converted into Ganwu Coins, that's 2.6 billion."

Chu Yuan finally showed a trace of a smile. "Deal. Let's sign the contract."

Once the contract was signed, the ten Force Weapons belonged to the Rare Treasure Shop, while Chu Yuan's account gained the enormous sum of 2.6 billion Ganwu Coins.

"Besides the Force Weapons, I have some other treasures. I might as well sell them all to you too."

Chu Yuan handed over a Space Ring containing metal ores, various materials, spirit fruits, and some other miscellaneous things.

Chu Yuan had kept the treasures useful to him. As for the rest, he might as well dispose of them all at once.

After taking the ring, Lan Tuo swept through it with his Spiritual Force, then nodded. "I can offer 360 billion Black Dragon Coins for these."

Chu Yuan smiled. "Three hundred and sixty billion doesn't sound good. Round it up to a whole hundred million."

Lan Tuo gave a helpless, wry smile. "Sir, they really aren't worth that much. We wouldn't have any profit left."

Chu Yuan could not be bothered to haggle with him and said directly, "Four hundred billion, take it or leave it. If you agree, make it quick."

A trace of helplessness appeared on Lan Tuo's face. "All right, 400 billion."

The two signed another contract, and another 400 million Ganwu Coins entered Chu Yuan's account, bringing his savings to three billion Ganwu Coins.

"Sir, this is our shop's membership card. You can enjoy a twenty percent discount on future purchases here."

Lan Tuo presented a membership card with both hands.

Chu Yuan accepted it and nodded. "I want to buy spaceships. List the information on C5-class spaceships."

"Certainly, sir. Here are all the types of C5-class spaceships."

Lan Tuo opened a virtual screen filled with various types of C5-class spaceships. "I recommend this one, the Dazzling Light Series C5-X model. It is 138 meters long and 92 meters wide, with a maximum flight speed in the Dark Universe of 1.4 times the speed of light. It offers the best value of all C5 spaceships, at only 600 million Black Dragon Coins each."

"I'll take it. Give me five hundred."

Chu Yuan placed the order decisively, buying five hundred C5 spaceships for only 240 billion Black Dragon Coins after the discount.

Afterward, Chu Yuan took his bodyguards straight to Qiu Long Star's largest slave market.
