At this moment, Han Xing's territory of over a thousand square meters was once again piled high with all kinds of materials.

Over a hundred thousand Spirit Cores alone had formed a two-meter-tall small mountain. The spiritual energy they gave off had nearly turned into mist, leaving anyone refreshed after just one breath.

Meiqiu was excitedly hopping around atop the small mountain of Spirit Cores.

It was the little fellow's first time experiencing the bliss of being knocked senseless by delicious food.

Every now and then, Meiqiu opened his mouth and swallowed a huge bite of Spirit Cores, at least a dozen at a time.

Han Xing let him eat as much as he wanted. With the sheer number of Spirit Cores in that pile, Meiqiu would not be able to finish them even if he ate for years!

However, after only a few bites, the little fellow could not eat anymore.

As if stuffed to the brim, he contentedly found a patch of grass, flopped down, rolled onto his back, and fell into a deep sleep.

The sight made Han Xing's mouth twitch.

"Tch, I thought you could eat more than that."

Han Xing began sorting through his gains.

So far, all twelve hundred-plus bottles of Life Elixir he had made had been sold, bringing in a massive amount of materials.

Yet there was still a huge shortage in the market.

As such an important recovery item, many people wished they could stockpile several more bottles. There had never been enough Life Elixir to go around among all the survivors, and now supplies had become even tighter.

Although it was already nighttime, Han Xing continued working overtime to make Life Elixir.

His Spirit Core reserves were more than sufficient, so he used up all his remaining Spirit Spring Water in one go to make Life Elixir.

Seven thousand bottles of Life Elixir, at ten seconds per bottle, came to seventy thousand seconds—nearly twenty hours.

For the entire next day, Han Xing did nothing else. Every time he made a bottle, he sold it immediately.

Other than occasional breaks, he spent all his time trading with the other survivors.

In the first hour, he traded away over six hundred bottles of elixir.

In the second hour, he traded away over thirteen hundred bottles of elixir.

Huge quantities of materials kept pouring into his account.

The day came to an end.

Finally, after the seven-thousandth bottle of Life Elixir was sold, Han Xing stopped trading.

That was because his supply of Spirit Spring Water had run dry.

Over eight hundred liters of Spirit Spring Water had produced more than eight thousand bottles of Life Elixir, seven thousand of which had been traded for all kinds of materials.

When the survivors in the Chat Channel saw that Han Xing had not listed any Spirit Spring Water for a long time, many of those waiting eagerly suddenly had a bad feeling.

At that moment, Han Xing said in the Chat Channel, his voice somewhat hoarse, "Everyone, the Life Elixir is sold out. I can't keep up with the raw materials here, so I can't make any more Life Elixir."

Hearing Han Xing say this, the survivors who had failed to trade for any were instantly filled with regret.

Many of them still had not gotten any Life Elixir.

At that moment, someone carefully asked, "Star God, is there really none left?"

Han Xing replied, "That's right. One of the main ingredients needed to make Life Elixir has run out. Once I find more of that main ingredient in the future, I'll make more."

"Besides, I've already traded over seven thousand bottles of Life Elixir, enough for many people to open up the current area boss."

"You should be able to get other recovery items from those bosses, which should basically be enough for everyone left to open up this area."

In truth, Han Xing still had over a thousand bottles of Life Elixir in reserve.

But he did not intend to take them out. After all, everyone had selfish motives.

He would inevitably get injured in future battles. If that happened, he did not want to put himself in danger because he lacked Life Elixir.

Hearing Han Xing say this, many survivors expressed their understanding.

At that moment, someone said, "Star God, you've worked hard. We will remember your kindness!"

Han Xing smiled and shook his head. "It was just a trade. What kindness are you talking about?"

However, that person smiled and said, "Star God, you're really not very honest. You say it was only a trade, but we've all taken it to heart."

"These past two days, you've practically been trading Life Elixir with us without sleeping or resting, indirectly saving who knows how many lives. That includes mine."

The person said with a bitter smile, "Without your Life Elixir, I might have already been killed by that monster..."

His words earned the agreement of many people, who responded one after another, "Yeah, I only got this life back thanks to Star God's Life Elixir. It's been far too hard since coming to this world..."

"Me too..."

"Come to think of it, this is already the second time Star God has saved us from disaster. Most of us in District 107 owe him a huge favor!"

"That's right. Star God is without a doubt the savior of District 107. If anyone dares question him again, I'll go after them!"

"I hereby announce that the Xinghe Divine Sect is officially established as of today. I'm its first believer. Who else wants to join?"

Seeing them getting more and more outrageous, Han Xing hurriedly interrupted, "Stop! Cut it out with all that mushy stuff. I just wanted to trade with you for supplies. Keep making things awkward, and I'll stop selling altogether!"

"Haha..."

Laughter filled the Chat Channel.

Han Xing shook his head and was about to close the Chat Channel.

Just then, a private message appeared.

The other party was named Cyclone Potato.

Han Xing vaguely remembered that name.

The moment he opened the private chat, Cyclone Potato excitedly said, "Dad! I still haven't traded for any Life Elixir!"

Han Xing's face immediately darkened.

"Don't fucking call me that. Since when did I have a son as old as you?"

Cyclone Potato quickly said, "Star God, you don't understand! You saved my life when I was at my lowest point. You're like my reborn parent, so calling you Dad is perfectly reasonable!"

Seeing that he still wanted to continue, Han Xing immediately sent a trade request.

After directly putting up ten bottles of Life Elixir, Han Xing ignored his exaggerated screams and closed the private chat.

Only then did Han Xing feel that the area around him had finally become quiet.

After two days of nonstop work, he was finally able to relax, and a powerful wave of drowsiness and exhaustion washed over him.

Han Xing shook his head and forced himself to stay alert.

He intended to finish counting his gains before resting. Besides, there was still one thing he had not done.

Looking at the several small mountain-like piles of materials in his territory, Han Xing's breathing became rapid again, and even much of his drowsiness was driven away.

"This time, I really made a killing!"

After his excitement subsided, Han Xing began taking inventory.

The biggest gain from this trade was naturally Spirit Cores. They were simply too versatile and had practically become the universal currency of this world.

After deducting the Spirit Cores consumed to make Spirit Spring Water, he had gained a total of 253,764 Spirit Cores.

Then there was another pile of relatively precious material: mithril.

Both Blue Gear and purple gear required it to craft, and it would likely be needed in large quantities later on as well.

After counting it up, he had gained over sixteen thousand pieces of mithril.

As expected, there was strength in numbers.

The three of them had taken the top three rewards and each opened one Silver Treasure Chest, yet they had only managed to gather fewer than fifty pieces of mithril.

After trading with all the survivors in the District 107 channel, he had directly gained over ten thousand pieces!

He had made a killing!
