Devour: Emperor Yan

"Let's go up."

Lin Kun and his group left the underground and returned to the surface.

All of them had smiles on their faces.

In less than an hour, they had acquired over 300 billion Qianwu coins!

This is practically like picking up money off the ground.

"My luck was alright."

Lin Kun smiled and looked around. It was pitch black and silent, with only the vast, boundless land faintly visible.

"These scattered cosmic crystals, found throughout the various realms within the realm, are not numerous. The fact that we managed to obtain 9000 cubic meters this time is quite impressive."

"As expected of a World Lord's World, they've made so much with their first investment." Luo Feng couldn't help but exclaim in admiration. "In the legends of space adventurers, discovering a new world is a sure way to make a fortune! However, the first major excavation of a new world like this is usually an activity that only universe-level, or even domain lord and world lord-level powerhouses can participate in."

The first sum was 300 billion Qianwu coins, a huge sum that far exceeded the wealth of the first Hengxing account that Huyanbo left to Luo Feng, making Luo Feng even more tempted.

The Lord's World truly is a treasure trove!

Even the most inconspicuous cosmic crystals, which they could casually pick up and drink from the surrounding area, were considered incredibly wealthy.

"Hurry up!" Hong said. "Let's continue, and take advantage of this short window of opportunity to make as much as possible!"

"Great, a quick win."

"Walk!"

......

In the time that followed, Lin Kun and his group diligently became like burrowing rats, digging holes everywhere.

Perhaps many other teams also carry energy sensors.

However, most of those instruments and equipment are rather rudimentary in function and not very accurate. How can their effects compare to Babata's detectors?

Guided by Babata, Lin Kun and his group quickly discovered a second location where cosmic crystals were buried underground.

"Money, all this money! It's buried underground, waiting for us to dig it up!" The men's eyes gleamed.

Lin Kun controlled the vines, which wrapped around the fragments of the Red Mixed Copper Mother and quickly burrowed into the ground.

"Dig it up!"

Get rich.

The thrill of finding money is simply captivating.

......

The central area of ​​the realm within a realm must contain the most cosmic crystals.

However, including Lin Kun's team, everyone tacitly avoided going that way.

Nobody's stupid.

Two holy lands, four major organizations, sixteen major families, and various primordial kingdoms, families, and forces across the universe...

These people, united in number and with their overwhelming strength, rushed towards the central area to fight for control.

The competition there is the fiercest, and the rocks there are much harder, just like the Wind and Thunder Mountains in the center of the Thunder World, making it very difficult to excavate.

Chaos, devastation, and difficulty in excavation, among other things.

For a small, independent cultivation team like theirs, it would be much easier to conduct a large-scale search in the outer areas rather than go there to compete.

"The scattered cosmic crystals on the outer perimeter are generally only a few thousand cubic meters in number, but if you collect them little by little and mine them multiple times, the total amount becomes quite astonishing, and it's safe too!"

As Lin Kun controlled the Moyun Vine to burrow underground, he said, "We have high-precision detection equipment. The more we run around and the harder we work, the better the harvest will be."

"That's right, it's safe and easy, you don't have to fight to the death, and you still get something out of it." Hong nodded in agreement.

"Haha, this is the hard work of picking up money," Thor laughed.

"If things continue like this, by the time we leave this time, we'll all probably be incredibly wealthy," Luo Feng said with a smile.

Everyone was in a good mood.

They were not disappointed by picking up scraps on the sidelines, because large sums of money were flowing into their pockets every moment.

This is the third location they excavated.

The first site yielded 9000 cubic meters.

The second place, a smaller one, let's get 6000 cubic meters.

Now, this third location, according to Babata's scan, is approximately 8000 cubic meters.

After a while.

Swish!

The Moyun Vine quickly retracted.

Lin Kun took the spatial ring and used his divine sense to examine it.

"How's it going, brother? How much do you have?" Luo Feng asked.

"It's similar to the results from the Babata probe, around 8200 cubic meters," Lin Kun said with a smile.

"Haha~" Upon hearing this, Luo Feng, Lei Shen, and Hong all showed joy.

8200 square meters, which is equivalent to another 200 billion Qianwu coins in income.

Lin Kun would accurately report the number of each harvest.

Even close brothers should keep clear accounts.

It's best to clearly state the profits from the beginning each time, so that everyone has a general idea of ​​what's going on.

Having clear figures can prevent unnecessary conflicts or unpleasantness from the start.

So they agreed on the allocation plan from the beginning.

Luo Feng was in charge of exploration, and Lin Kun was in charge of excavation. They both put in a lot of effort, so they each received a 40% share.

Thor and Hong are "assistants," each occupying a 10% share.

This allocation scheme is pretty much the same whether it's a space adventure or a martial arts team hunting monsters on Earth.

Thor and Hong naturally had no objections, since they were just there to watch out for each other.

"The harvest from the three excavations has already exceeded 800 billion Qianwu coins, and this has all been done in less than a day," Luo Feng said happily.

Lin Kun and the others also had smiles on their faces.

In less than a day, their team had earned over 800 billion Qianwu coins, which was undoubtedly terrifying; it was like picking up money from the ground up.

"Continue," Hong said worriedly. "We probably don't have much time left. Once the large numbers of people from the various organizations arrive and come in, there probably won't be anything left for us on the outskirts."

Upon hearing this, they all nodded.

A newly discovered world is inherently maddening, and many powerful individuals will die for it.

Not to mention it's a newly discovered world within a world.

A world within a world is far more captivating than any other new world.

"Let's continue then," Lin Kun said. "Let's go to the next place."

Although he knew that due to the intervention of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance, only the Hengxing level would be able to enter the Thunder World.

But by then, their team probably won't have much time left to slowly burrow underground like this.

The harder you work now, the more you'll reap.

......

Time passed day by day.

Many powerful figures arrived at Canglan Star, including cosmic-level beings, domain lords, and world lords.

However, without exception, all these powerful individuals were barred from entering the villa and were unable to get in at all.

Faced with this situation, some powerful figures chose to wait and see, while others wanted to unite and exert pressure together.

After all, this kind of thing can be big or small, and if the person in charge of the site chooses to turn a blind eye, it's not considered a major issue.

However, the person in charge of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance stationed at this location simply said, "If you want to die, go in," and then ignored him and stopped trying to stop him.

But no one dared to move or actually go inside.

After all, we've already come this far!

It's like putting the matter out in the open.

Some things are fine until they're weighed, but once they're on the scale, even a thousand pounds can't hold them down.

Clearly, no one dared to openly break the rules of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance and offend its authority.

They came here for money, not to die.

The Cosmic Mercenary Alliance, one of the five major human powers!

No one can escape the pursuit of such a behemoth after offending it; at least, none of those present could.

So, when the hard approach didn't work, they tried the soft approach.

Since Thunder World is a testing ground for trainee mercenaries, we should just follow the rules.

At present, major forces have begun to urgently mobilize a large number of ninth-level Hengxing troops to first conduct trainee mercenary assessments and registrations, and then march towards Canglan Star in a mighty force.

Meanwhile, within the realm of the world, the star-level adventurers were all in a state of excited frenzy.

Everyone is working hard, making the most of every minute to "make money".

Their efficiency might not be as high as Lin Kun's team, but even if they only manage to obtain 100 cubic meters of cosmic crystals, it would be an astronomical fortune for most star-level adventurers!

Therefore, many star-level adventurers are currently digging frantically.
