The Great Xia Dynasty's Longevity Begins with Connecting to the Swallowed Starry Sky

Chapter 171 Big Business, Thunder World
"This auction yielded more than the previous ones, a total of 13 Mixed Yuan Units."

Isadora said with a smile, "No matter what world it is, women and children's money is always the easiest to earn."

When she talked about this, she didn't seem to remember that she was also a woman.

"Our Tiangong Pavilion products not only aid in cultivation, but are also top-notch for skin and mental well-being."

Although for the time being, it only applies to domain lords and below.

However, the auction prices were by no means low.

Furthermore, we've received long-term custom orders, including from several Realm Lords and even Immortal Military Lords.

With Qin Hao's current strength, even with a group of senior sisters and the support of the Illusionary Butterfly King, he is still formidable.

He didn't become so arrogant as to do any kind of business, nor did he become so arrogant as to immediately produce a potion suitable for domain lords, world lords, or even immortals.

This isn't doing business; it's exposing yourself and beckoning to others.

I have a secret technique and a hen that lays golden eggs. Come and take it from me!

The Qianwu Universe Kingdom, with eight hundred kings and nobles.

They should all be able to find out their relationship with the Illusionary Butterfly King.

This will make them wary.

But what about those people under the eight hundred kings and marquises?

Even on Earth, Qin Hao couldn't guarantee that there weren't people who were blinded by lust and greed, who would become greedy at the sight of money.

Therefore, everything needs a balance.

Sending Godwin and Lowe to take action was already a bit risky.

Actually, Qin Hao did have some regrets later on.

Although the Fire Phoenix Group was involved in all sorts of shady dealings, the seventh prince of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, who stood behind the Fire Phoenix Group...

It's highly likely they won't dare to openly support the Fire Phoenix Group.

But the other party is still an immortal.

Although he was only the lowest-ranking Immortal War Lord.

But this was still beyond Qin Hao's ability to handle.

Although the Time Realm Lord Luo is powerful, he can only deal with the Immortal Army Lord and may find a chance to escape.

Godwin is also quite strong; in fact, his strength is comparable to Law's.

Qin Hao thought he should just give up and go to sleep if he thought he could rely on the two of them to deal with the Immortal Army Lord.

If Luo takes action himself, what if he manages to find Qin Hao?

At that time, neither the Illusionary Butterfly King nor the senior sisters were far away.

They were slow to realize the need for support, and were afraid they wouldn't be able to catch up.

Even if Qin Hao had three bodies, he would not be afraid of death.

One's own secrets reside in the true spirit, and are generally difficult to discover.

But one is a fairyland, the other immortal, requiring close observation and study.

Qin Hao wasn't sure if the other party could find his problem.

"We still need to be more careful."

Qin Hao understood that what those realm lords and immortal military lords wanted was merely the maintenance of their skin and spirit.

As for its auxiliary effects on cultivation, it is far too weak to support people at their level.

Isadora laughed and said, "Several immortal military lords have even taken the initiative to add me as a virtual universe friend."

They asked us when we could launch higher-end versions of these beauty products.

Qin Hao glanced at her, showing no arrogance despite the overtures from these immortal military lords.

Instead, he shook his head and said, "For this kind of thing, you also need to have the ability, good raw materials, and the research must also be approved."

Isadora was taken aback, and was about to speak.

Then, as if he had just realized something, cold sweat poured down his forehead.

Qin Hao could tell from her expression that she had come to her senses.

"Do you understand now?"

Isadora nodded, thankfully saying, "Luckily, I didn't let it slip. It seems it really is hard to guard against."

She wasn't even a member of parliament before, not even at the planetary level.

It was only with Qin Hao's help that he advanced to the planetary level and was granted a lifespan of one thousand years.

After arriving in the universe, I've seen more and my ambitions have grown.

But Isadora seems to have forgotten her original intentions.

She herself is not very strong, but Qin Hao, who is backed by her, is now quite powerful and has a powerful background.

But all of these seem like castles in the air.

It could collapse at any time.

What belongs to others is theirs; even if it's your closest relative, you can't rely on it.

One's own strength is the most important thing.

This is something that allows Qin Hao to stay clear-headed at all times.

The previous Pansy incident was also a decision made on a whim.

But he still had something to rely on; he didn't do it because of his background.

"Alright, now that you know, keep a clear head and constantly remind yourself what you should and shouldn't do. Of course, some immortal military lords might use some tricks on you, so you absolutely cannot neglect your own cultivation."

If you are merely a planetary-level being, when dealing with an immortal warlord...

People will only give you a couple of smiley faces at most, considering your background.

But equality is impossible.

Unless, you are His Holiness's own daughter.

She was extremely favored.

Otherwise, it's best not to overthink some things.

But if she herself is immortal, even if she is only the lowest level of immortal military lord.

Doing business will be much easier for them.

To put it bluntly, the universe is also a world where the strong prey on the weak.

"correct."

Just as Isadora was about to leave Qin Hao's meditation room, Qin Hao called out to her.

He took out a bell while she looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"This is the Clear Sound Bell, which can effectively protect your mind and soul and resist the effects of illusions. Wear it on your body and refine it in conjunction with the Treasure Refining Technique. It will not only effectively resist illusions, but will also be of great help in your daily cultivation."

Isadora took the Clear Sound Bell and felt her restless spirits soothed.

She knew immediately that this was a good thing.

"Yes, thank you, Pavilion Master."

This is a tool I've equipped for my spiritual practice.

With this, you can eliminate distracting thoughts faster and improve the efficiency of meditation.

Isadora is now confident that she can go even further in the future.

Qin Hao's voice came through: "You are all my subordinates, and I hope you can keep catching up."

There are many things for you to do in the future, so please don't neglect your spiritual practice in your daily lives.

"Yes, thank you, Pavilion Master."

"By the way, how is Luo Hua?"

Luo Hua is Luo Feng's younger brother, and compared to Luo Feng's exceptionally high cultivation aptitude...

Luo Hua's aptitude for cultivation was only so-so, slightly better than that of ordinary people.

But compared to geniuses, they're not good enough.

The current "Hidden Talents Project" in Tiangong City has gathered many geniuses.

Luo Hua wasn't even ranked among them.

Isadora was taken aback for a moment, but quickly smiled and said, "Luo Hua did a good job."

However, he mainly works in the investment department.

Typically, a leading group will inspect some projects in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom and then invest in them.

In addition, there are investments in the stock market.

Luo Hua has a real talent for this; the investment department has already started to turn a profit.

This is the report.

As she spoke, Isadora had already sent the report over via the virtual universe.

After a quick glance, Qin Hao discovered that the investment department's profits were indeed quite good.

It should be said that it is extremely good.

The initial investment was only 100,000 Qianwu coins.

They've already started using cosmic currency as the unit of account, which is close to the concept of a hybrid unit.

Although it's true that the stock market is essentially a place to make money.

Retail investors can easily get swallowed up.

However, those with the skills can still discern some patterns from these patterns and thus snatch a piece of the pie from the dealer's mouth.

Moreover, once he becomes powerful enough, he can also become the dealer.

"Good performance, members of the investment department, your bonuses will be doubled this month."

Qin Hao casually issued a document.

Isadora nodded with a smile, and Qin Hao added, "The same goes for the External Business Department. Well then, all members of the Heavenly Craft Pavilion, including the Earth branch, will have their resources doubled this month."

Today, all the proceeds from the auction have finally been received.

Even if all the resources of everyone in the Heavenly Craft Pavilion were doubled, it still wouldn't amount to a single Mixed Origin Unit.

With over 10 billion mixed units in his hands, he's just that magnanimous.

Isadora smiled and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it right away."

At that moment, all members of the Heavenly Craft Pavilion received a message.

"To celebrate the booming business of Tiangong Pavilion, the Pavilion Master has rewarded all members by doubling their resources this month."

In an instant, everyone in the Heavenly Craft Pavilion was in an uproar.

Luo Hua also received the message.

Looking at his email, he saw that in addition to the doubled resources, there was also an extra reward.

"There's another treasure, the Clear Sound Bell?"

This is for them to use in their spiritual practice.

Although mentally strong people are not necessarily better at investing.

But when applied to the same person, a mentally strong self is definitely stronger than a weak self.

At this moment, outside the Azure Star.

An E9-class spaceship is currently stationed here.

Luo glanced at the message and smiled.

All the people in the Heavenly Craft Pavilion combined don't have as much contribution points as he alone received.

After all, all of them combined couldn't beat him alone.

The salary of a peak Realm Lord is frighteningly high.

But Luo just smiled and closed his eyes.

He needs to think about how to spend this wave of contribution points.

Yes, he has a strong ability to manage his emotions.

Godwin shared the same idea.

Although he was already a slave to someone else's soul, it didn't stop him from pursuing self-improvement.

"Perhaps, this Heavenly Craft Pavilion is the key to my advancement to Immortality?"

Who doesn't want to improve themselves?
Looking at the world within a world before him, Luo was still pondering how many times he should exchange for the Enlightenment Pavilion.

"No, I already went in once before."

Entering now means insufficient experience and limited improvement.

Opportunities are limited, let's save them for later.

Although 20,000 years doesn't seem like a long time, he has reached the end of his life.

But in terms of time alone, it's still quite ample.

Twenty thousand years is equivalent to the lifespan of 20 planetary planets.

"Thunder City, Thunder World. This person... I think I've heard of him before."

There are still many people stationed in the surrounding area.

"The Black Cloud Society, one of the four major organizations of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire."

"Both holy lands, Black Dragon Mountain and Ice Sea Divine Kingdom, were founded by 'Immortals', and each has many realm lords under their command."

"The Sixteen Major Families".

"And the four major organizations have all arrived."

A world of thunder and lightning has attracted quite a few people.

Indeed, with the death of the Realm Lord, most of his wealth remained in this Thunder World.

The realm lord may not come in person, but the people in these forces will certainly not let it go.

"Is that the Hundred Tigers Tower of the four major organizations?"

Luo suddenly remembered a piece of news.

It is said that the Nuolanshan family, which was previously under the jurisdiction of Baihulou, even wanted to invade Earth, which was under the control of the World Lord.

This is like an old man eating poison; he's courting death.

Even the Hundred Tigers Tower wouldn't dare offend the Heavenly Crafts Pavilion, would they?

Nuolanshan, you're really bold.

Luo quickly recognized the power belonging to Three Axe Mountain; in fact, he was one of the founders of Three Axe Mountain.

However, he has focused more on his cultivation in recent years. After all, if he doesn't break through soon, his lifespan will be limited.

In the past, relying on my qualifications, I had too high an eye and too far a goal.

It's too late to turn back now.

Fortunately, I met the Pavilion Master.

I thought of the Enlightenment Pavilion.

Luo felt full of confidence.

At this moment, in the Thunder World, Luo Feng stored a group of unicorn iron rhinoceros horns into his storage ring.

He immediately used his telekinesis to shout, "Run! There's a squad trying to ambush us from behind!"

"What?" Thor was stunned. "They dare to come and intercept us?"

They are quite strong now.

Although only the three of them were powerful, they also brought a small team of ten members from the Stellar-level Celestial Crafts Pavilion.

Just moments ago, someone excitedly exclaimed, "The Pavilion Master has bestowed upon us double the resources this month!"

Before they could even get excited, Luo Feng warned them that someone was trying to ambush them.

However, at this moment, they were not truly afraid.

They've been space mercenaries for quite some time now, and have participated in numerous battles in space.

Having escaped death so many times, how could they be afraid?
But the battlefield should not be chosen by the other side.

Without hesitation, the group immediately dashed into the nearby forest.

As for the corpse of the one-horned iron rhinoceros, it had already been completely collected.

For those who possess the World Ring, collecting these things is simply a matter of course.

Although time was tight, it wasn't that tight.

In the mountains and forests.

Luo Feng, who was riding the Sky Shuttle, flipped his hand and a shield and an alloy battle knife appeared.

He was also wearing an alloy battle suit made by the Tiangong Pavilion.

Alloy suits and swords are not cheap, and they have a strong amplitude effect.

This is an upgraded version of the Black Armor Set; when worn, it can enhance their strength.

Even if a cosmic-level being arrives, they can still escape with Congrong.

So there's absolutely nothing to be afraid of.

The other two were the same, and the ten-person team had already been formed.

"What kind of organization is the other side?" Hong asked.

Luo Feng shook his head: "I'm not sure, it's probably Baihulou."

Hong hesitated for only a moment before saying, "Then let's fight back."

Tiangong Pavilion is not afraid of others.

Today, the Heavenly Craft Pavilion also has two peak Realm Lords in charge.

And behind it all lies immortality.

Qin Hao gave them a strong sense of security, so they didn't have to be afraid of the forces in Black Dragon Mountain.

"Then let's fight back."

They have enough confidence.

They are now two-star mercenaries in the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance.

This shows how many battles and adventures they went through.

"Babata, how strong is that team?"

Among them, Babata possesses the most advanced detection equipment, so there is no easier and more direct way to obtain information than by questioning Babata.

“Twenty-seven Rank 9 Stellar-level beings, twelve Rank 6 Stellar-level beings, and seven Rank 3 Stellar-level beings,” Babata said.

Wow, this team isn't bad at all.

But it doesn't matter, they are stronger.

"The other side is moving very fast, and the distance is closing, 2.8 kilometers... 2.6 kilometers..." Babata kept informing Luo Feng.

Hong quickly said, "In that case, there will be three of us to deal with those ninth-tier stellar-level beings."

As for the others…

"Form the array. The Ten Directions Grand Array taught by the Pavilion Master can link the ten of us together and condense all our power into one."

Let's trap the others first.

These ten people are not geniuses; they are just ordinary stellar-level individuals.

With Qin Hao's guidance, they are certainly among the best geniuses.

But they've just advanced and haven't had time to consolidate their gains.

I came out with Hong and the others this time partly to gain experience.

How can you become a master without experiencing hardships?

"They're here, be careful."

An unexpected battle broke out, thanks to Luo Feng and his men's deliberate planning.

The three were highly skilled and daring, and they surrounded twenty-seven ninth-tier stellar-level beings, with each of them taking on nine of them.

"How brave!"

The experts from Baihulou were so angry that they laughed instead.

Entering the world of Thunder doesn't necessarily require you to take action to gain benefits.

You get things quickly and in large quantities from others.

As long as they are powerful, they can do this.

Baihulou is one of the four major organizations in Heilongshan.

Besides the other three, there are two other holy lands, which even the sixteen families cannot afford to ignore.

No, perhaps only two are more troublesome.

Who are these people?
They actually dare to launch a killing spree?

“I really don’t know the heights of the world.”

Luo Feng, enraged, laughed: "Come on, let me see what true power is."

The Luo Feng at this time is completely different from the Luo Feng at this time in the original work.

His golden-horned behemoth had been at the cosmic level for quite some time, and his understanding of the Law of Gold had already been fed back into this human avatar.

Just now, Luo Feng also received a message from Qin Hao.

They asked him when the Demon Slayer Clan's clone was conceived.

This time, Isadora went to the auction and even obtained a portion of the Demon Slayer Clan's organizational structure.

Although other accounts will require a long negotiation period.

In particular, the business dealings with realm lords and immortal military lords require Isadora to negotiate with utmost care.

So it took quite a bit of time.

However, the organization of the Demon Slayer Clan was handed over to him immediately.

At this point, the Demon Slayer Clan clone will be ready to be conceived in about two years.

And this time can be further shortened.

Because the Qianwu Universe Kingdom possesses treasures that can accelerate time.

This was something he had only ever seen on Earth in novels.

In the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, their numbers are not small.

It's just that ordinary people don't need it and can't afford it.

But Luo Feng himself had used it.

At this moment, his golden-horned behemoth clone, or rather his main body, was already inside.

"Actually, it will be ready to conceive in about a month."

During this period, his understanding of spatial laws also made significant progress.

Therefore, once contact began, the opposing stellar-level ninth-order unit did not gain any advantage.

They are still at a disadvantage.

Luo Feng's swordsmanship is extremely powerful.

This is the Turtle-Snake Sword, passed down from Qin Hao's teachings. Its greatest strength lies in using the opponent's force against them, defeating the strong with the weak, and winning with fewer troops.

Facing a group attack, Luo Feng was not at all strained.

His methods as a spiritual master need not be concealed.

They were not intimidated by the fact that the other side had more people.

Because they all possess the peak of the stellar level, just one step away from advancing to the cosmic level of the Moyun Vine.

Plant life plays a very strong supporting role for them.

"Damn it, what the hell is going on?"

It was clearly just a small team, with less than half the number of them.

Moreover, their cultivation levels are inferior to theirs.

As a result, they were still at a disadvantage?

This was far beyond their wildest imagination.

"what!"

Luo Feng was the first to break the deadlock.

His tortoise-snake sword protects him from harm and can also inflict damage on his enemies.

Besides, his mental techniques are impossible to guard against.

Soon, a ninth-tier stellar-level being was killed.

Everyone else heard this and felt angry.

"How dare you! You actually dared to kill someone from our Hundred Tigers Tower."

What difference would it make if I killed you?

Hong made a soul-like movement, and light emanated from his body.

Those around were momentarily stunned.

Although she regained consciousness, she still couldn't see Hong's movements clearly.

Or rather, what they see may not be the truth.

In an instant, three ninth-tier stellar-level beings were split into two groups.

It fell to the ground, but wasn't completely dead yet.

However, they never discovered how they died until they were completely dead.

Thor was getting anxious. Luo Feng and Hong had already broken the deadlock, so how could he fall behind?
The Thunder Domain opened, and bolts of lightning struck down, paralyzing the bodies of the others.

Thor took the opportunity to use lightning to stimulate his muscles, making his body more active.

"Lightning Strike!"

Then, five stellar-level ninth-tier units were slashed down.

It can be said that in that instant, everyone unleashed their most powerful and secretive abilities.

After Thor finished killing his nine enemies, he turned around and, with a smile, asked his boss and Luo Feng if they needed any help.

Those two had already finished off their opponents and were now engaged in battle with the others.

Ok?
Really perverted.

Thor said something without saying a word, and then joined the battle.

"Not bad, second brother. Your strength has improved quite quickly."

Hong made a joke.

Thor felt a bit withdrawn.

He did indeed improve very quickly, thanks to the magic weapon made from the Thunder Crystal that Qin Hao had given him.

However, Luo Feng and Hong did not possess magic weapons of this level.

But their rate of improvement was surprisingly fast.

That's true, although the treasures they obtained were not as good in quality.

But the number is definitely not small.

Especially Luo Feng.

Having inherited the account of the Meteorite Star's owner, I gained a considerable amount of wealth in mixed-element units.

Babata gave him a lot of advice and helped him purchase a considerable amount of resources and treasures.

The other ten ordinary members of the Heavenly Craft Pavilion looked at Luo Feng and his two companions with expressions of shock and envy.

Too strong.

Although he may not be as good as the Pavilion Master, he is below the Pavilion Master, except for the two honored guests.

Luo Feng and his two companions must be the most powerful, right?

Luo Feng said, "Don't just stand there. These people must have sent out the message before they died."

Let's pack up quickly and leave.

The next time they come here, it won't be such a small team.

"Next time, the people coming will probably be at the cosmic level, right?"

"Didn't they say that cosmic-level areas are not allowed to enter?"

"Where there's a will, there's a way. Don't pin your hopes on that, but we don't need to worry too much either. We've never been afraid of guerrilla warfare. Besides, this enhanced Black God Set is too powerful. And with the Cloud Vine, we don't need to worry too much."

"Well, let's just consider it a test for us. I've found that my martial arts have improved again."

"And my path as an illusionist has also made considerable progress this time. I believe that I will not be afraid of any enemy, no matter how strong they are."

"Come on, it's all cleaned up."

"Leave quickly; there's no need for a direct confrontation. However, I think it's best to report it first."

"That's right, quite a few people have come to the Hundred Tigers Tower outside. We also need to consider the follow-up issues."
