After obtaining the jade pendant, Lu Qingshan gathered the other miscellaneous items together and put them back into a World Ring for safekeeping.
These miscellaneous items, large and small, add up to about a hundred Hunyuan Unit, representing all the assets of the dozen or so directors of the Fire Phoenix Group.
Adding to what he obtained from the previous raid on the Treasure Pavilion, Lu Qingshan could easily open a general store in Ganwu City.
Lu Qingshan had no interest in these broken items; his gaze was fixed on the silver jade pendant.
The sign was made of some unknown material, and inside it was a small world, not very large, mainly consisting of a flat continent.
In the very center of the continent, there is a very wide lake... about ten kilometers in diameter.
The lake water was crystal clear, and even a glance from the surface revealed a chilling coldness.
" Locke Divine Water!"
A smile appeared on Lu Qingshan's face.
This wasn't the first time he had obtained Locke Divine Water, so he naturally recognized it and was well aware of its value.
Compared to this vast lake, the Locke Divine Water I received as a rebate was nothing more than a small puddle.
"I'm rich!"
The Ghost King Avatar grinned menacingly.
This is 6.337 billion Hunyuan Unit of Locke Divine Water, comparable to the entire fortune of King-level Immortal.
With this money, if Lu Qingshan were to participate in that mid-level auction, he wouldn't just be some country bumpkin, but a true top-tier tycoon.
"It's time to leave!"
Having achieved its goal, the Ghost King Avatar retrieved the Machine Race's spaceship and vanished into space.
In the starry sky, Lu Qingshan looked at the palace that had been reduced to ruins by the World Power.
" Nasus, give it a shot!"
He gave the order.
"Yes, Master."
Despite being only a Level 2 AI, Nasus was still able to accurately understand Lu Qingshan's thoughts.
The Star Annihilator Cannon on the Machine Race's spaceship began charging, and moments later, a beam of blue light slammed into the asteroid.
"Boom boom boom--"
After a deafening roar, the asteroid where the eighteen people had just gathered was reduced to cosmic dust. Even the most sophisticated instruments could not find any trace of Lu Qingshan's presence. Destroying the body and erasing the evidence was a skill that the Star Annihilator Cannon was adept at, but it consumed too much energy.
After the asteroid disappeared, the Machine Race's spaceship accelerated through the planetary belt, quickly exceeding the speed of light and entering the Dark Universe.
One year later, Ganwu City
Lu Qingshan met Shang Jie, took the silver jade token from him, and handed over the resources he had purchased over the past year to deliver to the Ghost King Avatar.
Looking at the enormous lake inside the jade tablet, a smile appeared in Lu Qingshan's eyes.
"It was the Ghost King Avatar who made the move. Panxi died before he could even use his plant life form, and the notorious Fire Phoenix Group was wiped out... And this Locke Divine Water... just happens to solve my current financial predicament."
Lu Qingshan is short of money.
Several years ago, when he purchased resources to accumulate Origin Force for the Ghost King Avatar, he only had 20,000 Hunyuan left. Over the years, he used up those 20,000 Chaos Hunyuan and exchanged them for the same treasure, which he just handed over to Shang Jie.
Now I'm penniless, practically destitute.
Lu Qingshan took a small portion from the Locke Divine Water Lake and put it into a World Ring.
Then they went directly to the Virtual Universe Ganwu City Universe Galaxy Bank branch.
He did not go to the counter or the VIP room.
Instead, they went directly to a self-service private room.
As one of the two major banks in the universe, the Universe Galaxy Bank attaches great importance to the privacy of its customers. Some powerful individuals who do not wish to reveal their identities can choose the bank's intelligent services.
certainly.
This service has prerequisites; users must be at least Samsung users to be eligible.
As for the other selected intelligent services, they are essentially pseudo-intelligent services; the intelligence they use is not true intelligence, but merely ordinary Optical Computer.
Lu Qingshan entered his bank card number and multi-dimensional password, and quickly confirmed his identity information.
"Ding ding ding, dear four-star customer, I am Universe Galaxy Bank's Smart Service Butler No. 1688. It's a pleasure to serve you. How can I help you?"
"Don't mention it, I'd like to sell some treasures."
Lu Qing said with a smile.
The Intelligent Life that serve the bank's VIP members are highly advanced, almost indistinguishable from normal intelligent life forms.
Please show the products you wish to sell.
With Lu Qingshan's permission, Nasus displayed the Locke Divine Water he was going to sell.
Intelligent Life No. 1688 glanced at it and said, "Dear four-star user, the amount of Locke Divine Water you provided is approximately 2 cubic kilometers. Our Universe Galaxy Bank's purchase price is 17.2 million Hunyuan Unit..."
"I need consignment services..."
Upon hearing the price quoted by the bank's automated system, Lu Qingshan immediately shook his head. "Universe Galaxy is dishonest; they're going to pocket the difference!"
The value of Locke Divine Water is approximately 8.9 million Hunyuan Unit. This is the price at the auction. In reality, it would be even easier to sell. His two cubic kilometers should be worth 17.8 million Hunyuan Unit, but the bank only offered 17.2 million. Don't underestimate this small fraction; it's still 600,000 Hunyuan Unit!
It's worth noting that a few years ago, when Lu Qingshan participated in a mid-level auction, he only had 210,000 Hunyuan Unit. These 600,000 Hunyuan Unit are three times his entire fortune at that time!
Only those who have experienced poverty will learn to be frugal.
"Dear four-star user, our Universe Galaxy Bank consignment service charges a service fee of 0.1%. We will then contact users who are interested in purchasing, or handle the matter through medium or high-level auctions. This may take up some of your valuable time."
The intelligent system seems to still want to salvage the situation.
"Let's consign it, I'm not in a hurry..."
A service fee of one-thousandth is only about 20,000 Hunyuan Unit, which is much less than 600,000. Lu Qingshan didn't want to lose so much for nothing.
He wasn't in a hurry to repay the debt, so there was no need to get the money quickly. Besides, given the reputation of the Universe Galaxy Bank, this money wouldn't ultimately run into any problems.
"Okay, dear four-star customer, please leave your contact address and we will send someone to pick up the goods. Alternatively, you can deliver them directly to any branch of the Universe Galaxy Bank, and we can forward them to you."
Lu Qingshan left behind his manor at the Ganwu Dojo.
Now that he is a disciple of the Ganwu Country Lord, it's not a big deal for him to expose some resources, especially since the Universe Galaxy Bank won't leak its customers' privacy.
Even if someone sees it, all they'll know is that Lu Qingshan had a transaction with the bank.
The Universe Galaxy Bank is very efficient.
On that day, a World Lord Origin Law Recognition, along with a group of employees from Galaxy Bank, arrived at the location designated by Lu Qingshan and respectfully took away the Locke Divine Water.
Just three days later.
Lu Qingshan learned from the bank that the goods he consigned had been sold to a five-star user from another Universe Country, who most likely intended to use them to cultivate his own plant life.
After the transaction was completed, Lu Qingshan received payment of 17.78 million Hunyuan Unit in his account.
The consignment price was set by Lu Qingshan himself, using the previous auction price found in Nasus's database.
With the money deposited, Lu Qingshan's account was instantly upgraded again, making him a five-star user of the Universe Galaxy Bank.
He also received an invitation to a high-level cosmic auction, but this auction was not scheduled for several hundred years from now, so even if Lu Qingshan was interested, he wouldn't have the opportunity to attend in the short term.
With the money, Lu Qingshan entrusted the bank and the Universe Mercenary Alliance to purchase the treasures accumulated by the World Lord's Origin Force.
In addition, the treasures needed for the evolution of Star-Eating Grass were also on his purchase list.
With so much Locke Divine Water, it's a certainty that the Star-Eating Grass will reach the World Lord Ninth Stage. Lu Qingshan plans to let the Star-Eating Grass evolve again.
His requirements weren't high; 108 vines were far too few. The Immortal Star-Eating Grass he wanted to cultivate would require at least 300 vines.
With 300-Vine Star-Eating Grass, there's a certain chance of breaking through to Immortal by investing resources. However, with 500 or 1000 vines, Star-Eating Grass that breaks through to Immortal is comparable to becoming King Rank, making it too difficult to cultivate and the success rate too low.
A minimum of 300 is guaranteed; we'll see if we want to keep pushing!
