50 million!?

Even with all the hard work of Hu as a middleman between the two realms, including the rare and hard-to-sell Lightning Crystal and the various lethal magical Law Artifact that haven't been sold yet, the total value of his assets is probably less than 20 million.

Of course, if you factor in the premium, it will be even higher. For example, although it's 1000 Spirit Coin for a Low-Grade Spirit Stone...

A Mid-Grade Spirit Stone 10,000 Spirit Coin, but if you actually spend 10,000, you're unlikely to find a single Mid-Grade Spirit Stone on the market. Even if you do find one, it will likely be a defective product, let alone a Spiritual Qi enhanced version like this one.

But even with a 50% premium, turning 20 million into 30 million, what's going on with the other side!?

If he remembered correctly, this "Electronic Wooden Fish" was barely able to pay its employees' salaries before his second transmigration.

How did they make 50 million just by reselling it?

Even robbing a bank wouldn't be this fast.

Hu Mang quickly checked the authenticity of the news. After browsing through the web, he confirmed that it was a message from "Demon Metropolis Finance," so the message was most likely true.

"Influenced by the craze for online cultivation methods, major internet giants have entered the fray, acquiring numerous Cultivation Method software programs with corresponding functions. Riding this wave of popularity, many acquisitions of Cultivation Method software have occurred during this period, including some high-quality mergers and acquisitions, such as the revitalized Electronic Wooden Fish software."

"But Professor Ma, this price seems to differ from other mergers and acquisitions in the industry, and there's a lot of discussion about it online."

From the perspective of a trending online app, especially one that's already past its prime, it's not worth the price. However, conversely, if we consider only the effects of the Cultivation Method, "Lesser Bodhi" ranks among the top three Cultivation Method apps. Most importantly, the "Lesser Bodhi Method" itself has almost no side effects, and many Cultivation Method have even imitated it, creating a school of thought called "auxiliary Cultivation Method."

"In terms of price alone, given the current situation where giants are all entering the market, it's not uncommon to see acquisition prices with premiums of two or five times the original price, let alone ordinary premiums. Currently, the acquisition price for ordinary Cultivation Method software is around 30 million. Under normal circumstances, we would expect the acquisition to be completed between 60 million and 150 million."

150 million!!??

"But the prerequisite is that it needs to have tens of millions of users."

"But Professor Ma, the software rankings for 'Electronic Wooden Fish' have remained consistently in the top three for the past ten days or so, and have largely stayed within the top ten."

Professor Ma looked at the host with a subtle expression.

"But you also need to understand that all the popular software rankings are based on data provided by those internet giants and tech companies. In fact, these lists themselves are just one of the niche markets they control. In my opinion, the reason why the founder of 'Electronic Wooden Fish' chose not to leave at a high position is largely due to the intensity of market competition, the increasing number of similar Cultivation Method software, and the psychological factors of his previous entrepreneurial failures. Of course, the professional capabilities of the Divine Sense Negotiation Team are also beyond doubt."

Although the words were phrased tactfully, the host immediately understood what the other person meant and quickly changed the subject.

"Okay, Professor Ma, next let's talk about the impact these Cultivation Method software programs have on our own cultivation. One theory is that in the future, we cultivators won't need to cultivate anymore; we can just download cultivation software directly."

"I don't think the impact will be significant. Firstly, these kinds of online Cultivation Method software only provide a more efficient way to practice Hu Mang couldn't hear what the other person was saying anymore; its mind was filled with thoughts of 30 million, 60 million, and 150 million."

That's all my money!!!

Hu Mang took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the urge to go to Demon Metropolis. He first drank the water by his bedside in one gulp. After regaining his senses, he exhaled and opened the Electronic Wooden Fish software he had downloaded earlier. He wanted to try out what this "Lesser Bodhi" was all about.

A moment later, Hu Mang withdrew from the "Divine Sense internet access" function, stroked his chin, and had a subtle expression.

"So-called Bodhi State of Mind is actually a composite of precepts, wealth accumulation, and purifying karma, mixed with the effects of the Lin Character Instruction' and 'Jie Character Instruction —a low-end version, no less."

According to the software description, the "Lesser Bodhi" function "will provide users with a more immersive and distracting State of Mind for spiritual practice."

This auxiliary effect will be canceled once you exit the software.

In this online environment where the quality of online cultivation Cultivation Method and software varies greatly, this kind of auxiliary cultivation Cultivation Method is undoubtedly...

This will give users more peace of mind.

At least it won't have any side effects.

Especially this type of Cultivation Method that "eliminates distracting thoughts and eliminates bad karma".

"However, the effect wasn't as good as I'd imagined, only about 30% to 40%. According to the forum, it's about 20%..."

Many people only experience a 30% success rate, perhaps because they lack the blessing of the Buddhist merit and reincarnation system.

Hu Mang actually knew that the Heavenly Gate had the power of "merit evolution," but this power of "merit" was firmly in the hands of the upper echelons of the Heavenly Gate.

"The Five Virtues Five Fortunes?"

The Hu Mang muttered to itself.

Without the transformation of Buddhist merits, the effect is naturally greatly reduced.

But then again, why was he able to cultivate the complete version?

Hu Mang quickly figured out the reason.

Essentially, he cultivates the Buddhist teachings of the Azure Mysterious Realm and bears the karma of that realm, unlike other Heavenly Gate people who can only accept the karma of the Heavenly Gate.

Unlike just over ten days ago, this software is now incredibly popular; a quick browse reveals numerous user comments.

These comments aren't just idle chatter; they're suggestions for the next version update.

Even if it doesn't reach tens of millions of users, it's highly likely to have several million.

"By the way, it's not like we really didn't sign any agreements, is it?"

Thinking of this, Hu Mang quickly jumped out of bed and hurriedly asked his adoptive father.

A dozen minutes later, the Hu Mang returned, baring its teeth, and sprawled out on the blankets, sinking into the covers.

That's it! There's really no hope left! No agreements were signed, and we won't get a single penny!

The cheap dad is just an artificial intelligence; if you don't ask, he naturally won't remind you.

Why didn't I think of that before?

By the way, at that time, my family was trapped in the Demon-Subduing City and was almost killed. We barely managed to escape and were only thinking about counterattacking. I didn't have any other thoughts at all.

Although Hu Mang was very interested in Xiao Qianqian, he was, after all, a character who had experienced life and death, and when he said he had let go of it, he really had let go of it quite a bit.

I deleted the Electronic Wooden Fish, planned to take another nap, and then this matter would be settled.

I scrolled through my phone and suddenly stumbled upon a missed call. I let out a soft "hmm" and dialed it back.

Although it's past nine o'clock, for programmers, that's legitimate business hours and not considered a nuisance.

In a core business district of Zhongshan Holy Land, there is a mountain gate of an online sect. In fact, it is an entire building dedicated to cultivation.

With various types of Spiritual Qi channels available, who needs to extract Spiritual Qi from deep in the mountains and forests?

This entire building belongs to the Mystic Shield Sect, a new type of internet sect.

At the reception desk on the thirteenth floor, a phone suddenly rang.

The receptionist glanced at the nameplate on the phone cabinet and saw it belonged to Wang Zeyu; she immediately had an idea.

The young woman picked up her phone, headed straight for the office area, and quickly asked a familiar face.

Where is your Director Wang?

"Wang Zeyu? What do you want with him in that core office?"

"I have his phone number."

"So what if he is?" The colleague looked the other person up and down, then grunted, "You want to date him?"

"What, you can't?" the receptionist said shrewishly.

"He's technically good, but not physically. He might be your type, but you're definitely not his type."

The little girl swiftly executed a finger technique she didn't know how to use, then headed straight for the central office. In ancient times, this would generally be called Seclusion Chamber, but modern cultivation methods have been updated countless times, and the flaw that could lead to Qi Deviation due to interference during cultivation has long been fixed.

The receptionist glanced through the window and then knocked on the door.

"Come in."

The younger sister pushed the door open and entered.

Wang Zeyu wasn't the only one in the office; more than thirty light screens lit up simultaneously, like nodes in an array, illuminating the entire space brightly and transparently.

On the left screen, the original code of the talisman is quietly arranged, while on the right is the translated Spiritual Qi programming language, with densely packed runes and numbers stacked layer upon layer, like a precisely operating magic array diagram.

Occasionally, if a logical error occurs, the screen will suddenly flash a scarlet warning light.

The chaotic runes crackled and hissed, tiny arcs of electricity leaped from the edge of the screen, and a few wisps of dissipated Spiritual Qi spilled out from the display boundary, lingering briefly in the air before vanishing.

Several talisman programmers calmly raised their hands, their fingertips lightly touching the error node: they skillfully traced back the rune logic.

Edited and removed redundant array parameters, and fixed the hidden loopholes in the restrictions that allowed spiritual energy to overflow.

On the corner of the table, several blank rune chips for testing floated in mid-air, emitting a faint glow. Whenever a piece of code was completed, someone would import the rune program into it.

The chip lit up instantly, and the corresponding magic array shimmered, transforming into a complete digital talisman that projected a miniature array phantom into the air.

If the underlying architecture is fine, this test array will function normally.

"The final round of adjustments is here," Wang Zeyu said, his voice slightly tense. "Everyone, stay alert."

Then he turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Your phone number." The receptionist shrank back slightly.

Wang Zeyu was taken aback, then said, "Oh, thank you."

He took the phone, glanced at the caller, paused slightly, then nodded to the other person and walked directly into an office next door. The door slammed shut, leaving only the receptionist, who had been trying to curry favor, stamping her foot and leaving unwillingly.
