[Crooked Mouth Dragon King: Xing, I didn’t expect you to finish him off so quickly. It seems like your strength is at least mid Silver. Are you interested ining to our Administration? We can establish a new Survivor department for you. You can be the leader.]
Zhou Chen was speechless when he saw the message from Li Guofu.
{Star: Don’t talk nonsense. Hurry up and pay!)
[Crooked Mouth Dragon King: Xing, I’m not nagging. The country really needs a talent like you. Think about it carefully and contact me anytime. As for the reward, what do you think about a billion Dragon Country bills?)
[Star: Can you exchange it for Eagle Origin? 100 million Eagle Origin in cash.]
[Crooked Mouth Dragon King: What’s wrong, Xing?! You’re going overseas to develop yourself?!]
Li Guofu was shocked when he saw Zhou Chen’s reply.
[Star: No, I won’t go overseas, but I have a foreign friend who needs money recently. Eagle Origin is easier to use.]
[Crooked Mouth Dragon King: Alright, you scared me. I’ll apply to the higher-ups now. Let’s stay in touch.]
After discussing the payment with Li Guofu, Zhou Chen walked into the courtyard of his house and began to train.
However, what he was cultivating now was not martial arts, but spacews.
Ever since he obtained the Low Gold rank Space Affinity passive skill, Zhou Chen had made it a goal to master the spacews.
His goal was to at least reach the level of the demon lord’s spatial ability and be able to use spatial teleportation and spatial destruction efficiently.
At this moment, Zhou Chen was standing in the garden in his courtyard, fully focused onmunicating with the surrounding spatial power. It did not seem to be very easy.
In fact, if he was willing, he couldpletely use his divine power to control some spacews.
However, his requirements were quite high. If he wanted to be like that demon lord back then, he needed to achieve an extremely efficient control effect of the spacews by just spending a very small amount of divine power. This was not easy to aplish.
Time slowly passed. Zhou Chen’s figure suddenly disappeared from the garden and appeared in the corner of the wall more than ten meters away.
“Sess. The divine power used for the teleportation was very little, but it took half a second. It is too slow.”
Although he had made some progress, Zhou Chen knew that he still needed to invest more time in perfecting it.
“Zhou, it’s already twelve! Come have lunch!” Suddenly, Vera’s beautiful figure appeared on the balcony of the vi.
“Oh? You learned how to cook so quickly?”
Zhou Chen was curious when he heard Vera call him. Vera had only been here for a day or two and had yet to recognize all the home appliances, but she could already cook lunch for him. Zhou Chen had thought he would still be eating in some high-end restaurant today.
He then activated his rtively inexperienced teleportation ability and entered the building. On the dining table in the living room, there were tworge bowls of rice and arge te of green peppers fried meat. The green peppers fried meat was emitting an alluring fragrance, but it looked a little dark.
“Zhou, I saw this earlier. Maybe I ced too much soy sauce. The tools here are really convenient.” Vera showed Zhou Chen a recipe video.
“Alright, let me test it.” Zhou Chen immediately went forward and picked up a piece of stir-fried meat with his chopsticks before putting it in his mouth.
“Not bad. You’re already talented to be able to do this in your first try.”
Although the green pepper stir-fried meat Vera made looked a little off, the taste was okay. It might not be very authentic, but he could not be too strict with her, a foreigner who was making Dragon Country food for the first time.
“That’s great. I’ll study more dishes!” Vera was also very happy to see that Zhou Chen liked it. She picked up the rice bow! and ate lunch with him.
However, she had juste into contact with chopsticks and was not very good at using them. Zhou Chen felt that it was a little funny, so he suggested that she eat with a spoon.
However, Vera was not someone who would admit defeat easily. Even though using chopsticks was very awkward, she still persisted.
During this pleasant meal, Zhou Chen even received a message from a system friend.
It was not Li Guofu, but the rich girl.
[Breeze of Dawn: Boss, do you have any good swords? I’ll buy them for a high price!]
“Looks like this girl wants to develop in the sword path.”
{Star: I remember you have that Frost Sword. Is it not enough?]
Zhou Chen remembered that during thest transaction, this girl had said that she had advanced to the middle bronze rank. The quality of the Frost Sword was not bad and shouldst her for a while.
[Breeze of Dawn: That sword was broken by a monster in the previous Survival mission. That’s why I need a new weapon.]
[Star: I see. I don’t have any swords suitable for you right now, but I can forge them. You can customize what you want from me.]
{Star: But I want to be paid in Eagle Origin. Can you manage it?]
The reply came after a few seconds.
[Breeze of Dawn: I can pay Eagle Origin. I want a sharp and durable high bronze sword with corrosion resistance. It will be better if it can deal spiritual damage.]
“This girl’s requirements are quite high. It’s probably very rare to see a weapon with spiritual damage.”
Spiritual damage was very useful in Survival missions because some troublesome enemies like evil spirits could only be damaged with spirit or holy light damage. However, spiritual damage had a wider usage than holy light spells.
[Star: Wait a moment. I have a ready-made sword embryo. I will forge it for you immediately.]
Zhou Chen replied to her and opened his inventory to choose.
He first picked out a very ordinary mid bronze sword from his messy inventory space, and then used a little of his divine power to enhance this sword.
(Demon yer
‘Type: Low Silver weapon
Sharp: Ignores the defense of targets below the low Silver rank.
yer: Attack deals low Silver rank spiritual damage.
Self Repair: As long as the sword doesn’t break, any damage can be restored by itself.]
“F*ck… A mistake. It became a silver weapon.”
After upgrading the weapon in his hand, Zhou Chen realized that he had enhanced it a little too much. He had wanted to make a high bronze weapon, but it had be a silver one.
“Forget it, I’ll sell this.”
Since the weapon had been forged, Zhou Chen did not want to waste it. He sent the weapon information to the rich girl.
[Breeze of Dawn: Boss! This weapon is awesome! But I don’t think I can afford it.]
“Hehe, even a tycoon can’t afford it.”
Zhou Chen knew that ording to the normal price, this rich girl might really not be able to afford it because silver weapons were still priceless. Previously, he had sold the bizarre sword to the Administration for 100 million Dragon Country bills.
“Looks like if Li Hui needs more funds, I can sell some weapons to the Administration.”
It was easy for Zhou Chen to make silver rank weapons. The divine power consumed was quite low.
However, this thought only shed across his mind. If he reallycked money, it was not necessary for him to make weapons for it. There were other methods that were faster and had lower costs.
[Star: This sword costs 14 million Eagle Origin. You can pay in installment. Do you want it?]
Considering that the rich girl might not be able to get the money all at once, Zhou Chen thoughtfully suggested paying in installments.
However, the rich girl’s reply surprised him.
[Breeze of Dawn: I will be able to gather 14,000,000 Eagle Origin in cash today. There’s no need to split it!]
[Star: Ok, prepare for the transaction then. Speaking of which, you weren’t this fast when you gathered ten million Dragon Country billsst time, right? Did your family get a new mine?]
Zhou Chen felt that he had underestimated the rich girl. He had been worried that she would not be able to afford it, but now it seemed like he was too shortsighted.
The rich girl quickly exined.
[Breeze of Dawn: My family has put more value in me recently. My allowance has increased.]
“2h”
Zhou Chen was stunned.
“F*ck! Do the children of the rich have so much pocket money?!”
After this small interlude, Zhou Chen continued to train after lunch. He first received the Administration’s 100 million Eagle Origin cash payment, then received the rich girl’s 14 million,pleting the transaction.
After he gained the funds, Zhou Chen summoned Li Hui and listened to her n for the promotion of faith. He made some adjustments and assigned her the first batch of funds.
Before asking Li Hui to set off, Zhou Chen spent some divine power to increase her strength to the low Silver rank. He had also equipped her with a few pieces of equipment. At the same time, he absorbed her blood into the bizarre book. This was a necessary step. Since Li Hui wanted to work for Zhou
Chen and be a core member, he had to use some means to ensure her loyalty.
Li Hui headed to the southeast to promote the Lord of Benevolence’s faith. After two days, Zhou Chen opened the space passage and brought Vera back to her hometown. Vera wanted to promote the Lord of Benevolence’s faith here as well.
After Zhou Chen spent some time preparing the necessary funds and supplies for her, she began to busy herself. Zhou Chen also began to cultivate again.
A monthter.
“This Martial Dao Human Immortal realm is really difficult to figure out. I feel like it will take a long time if I just keep training like this.”
The most important thing in Zhou Chen’s cultivation was still martial arts, but his progress was still stuck in the Great Martial Dao Grandmaster realm.
He had tried to use his divine power to increase his cultivation level, but even when his Godhood’s divine power was full, it was unable to fulfill this wish. This was because a huge amount of divine power was needed to advance to the Human Immortal realm. With Zhou Chen’s current mini Godhood, it
was impossible.
As for his cultivation of the spacews, it was progressing quite smoothly. He was much more proficient in using spatial teleportation than in the beginning, approaching the level of that demon lord. He had also developed spatial destruction, and it could already be used inbat.
“I wonder when this final mission will begin. The system has not given any details yet.”
His cultivation realm was stuck, and there was no news about the final mission. Zhou Chen felt a little depressed.
“In addition to persisting in cultivation, I should engage in some actualbat. I also need to expand my believers to get more faith. When I have enough divine power, I will try to erge Godhood.”
Zhou Chen was taking two paths at the same time. His main focus was on the martial path, and his goal was to be a Human Immortal. He did not rx after obtaining the fake Godhood and nned to upgrade it.
This upgrade was not easy. He needed to prepare more than ten sets of full Godhood divine power and some divinity materials.
“Thave enough faith energy at the moment. Vera is in charge of managing and developing the churches in the other worlds. It’s also going smoothly for Li Hui back in Blue. The Authorities I have are also continuously providing me with divine power, but I don’t know how much time I have to
prepare. I have to speed up.”
Zhou Chen had already made some gains from the previous arrangements. His control over the spacews had be much stronger. He had already built a fixed teleportation gate for Vera to travel between the few worlds of the Gods. Even the consumption of divine power to return to Blue had
decreased greatly. On Blue, after Li Hui’s efforts and his strong support, he had already obtained several batches of believers in some less-developed and chaotic areas. The faith power provided was bing abundant.
However, this was not enough. Zhou Chen did not know when the final mission would begin. He had to increase his strength as soon as possible.
“Let’s go to that world to develop. Although that is a technological world, it has the potential to develop faith.”
After thinking for a while, Zhou Chen took out the Inteary Transmission Gate and used a firearm as an aura marker. He injected divine power and opened a passage to a world he had been to before.
It was the ce where he took this firearm: the Apocalypse World.
At this moment, a barrennd appeared behind the Inteary Transmission Gate. On the ground, a huge and terrifying towering tree monster was slowly moving. Every time it moved for a distance, it would leave terrifying pollution on thend.
“Cmity Grade monster?”
Seeing that it was the Cmity Grade tree monster that he had previously avoided, Zhou Chen’s fighting spirit increased.
“Back then, this monster forced me to flee with just its aura. Now, it’s time for revenge.”
Zhou Chen was very sure that this monster, which he had thought to be invincible back then, was no longer his match.
However, he could not be too careless, because he had to consider the rejection and suppression of the world.
“Tm not from this world. Without the system’s help, my strength will definitely be slightly suppressed. However, everything is ready. Let’s go!”
After thinking about it and confirming that there was no mistake, Zhou Chen directly stepped through the gate. He arrived in front of the towering terrifying tree monster.
“As expected, it feels like there is a mountain on my body. The stronger I am, the greater the suppression I will suffer.”
As soon as he entered the world, Zhou Chen realized that the situation he had expected had urred. This world was rejecting him, but he did not panic. He used some of his divine power to ease his condition so that he would not feel too ufortable.
Then, he cast his gaze at the Cmity Grade tree monster that was approaching with ferocious branches that covered the sky..
