In Qi City, China.
Thanks to the blessings of the Dragon God, the city that was originally barely a second-tier city, had become the focus of the world, the darling of the media, a favorite of the tourists, and the first choice of the wealthy when they went hunting to homes...
Unfortunately, with the haze of the moon crisis growing increasingly worse, the glory of this city not far from the coast faded rapidly. Only a few wealthy people who had absolute confidence in the Dragon God still stayed here.
The Son of Heaven, William, was one such person.
He watched as the bell rang in the year 2019 and the moon crisis approached. The sea level rose every day, and many coastal cities had built dams and moved inland.
He still took his darlings with him leisurely, partying every day and driving around, free from restraint.
Today, his uncle Robert brought a young white boy along with him and visited his villa.
"William, come out for a bit, I want to introduce you to someone. His name is Azhari, he wishes to have your investment..." A small smiled appeared on Robert's stern face. He turned a blind eye to his nephew's extravagant lifestyle as long as he gave him money...
He pointed at the young white boy behind him and introduced.
"Hello, I'm William Robert. Mr, Azhari, what do you want me to invest in?" William's complexion looked a little pale. It seemed like he was unable to stand to work all night and day. The damage dealt to his body was not simple at all.
"Oh, I obtained a mysterious Eastern ability. It's very exquisite and profound, but it requires a lot of investments to obtain results..." Azhari said enthusiastically, his body full of energy.
"Oh, then you should cultivate diligently. The future of America lies in you youngsters' hands." William completely ignored the so-called 'mysterious Eastern ability' and simply clapped the other on the back in encouragement.
He had forgotten that he was only a few years older than this youngster.
"Well, I heard from Mr. David that you'd be very happy to invest in anything that's beneficial to the USA's cultivation industry, which is why I'm here today." Azhari quickly said.
"Yes, that's part of my duty, so of course I am. Today, we're facing an unprecedented change in the past five thousand years. People who have money must contribute money, just like how people who have power must contribute power, and people who have land must contribute land. Regardless if the land is from the North or South, or if the people are young or old, we must all do everything in our ability to keep the candle flame of human civilization alive." William covered up the red lipstick mark on his collar and said seriously.
Azhari nodded repeatedly and waited for William to finish speaking before hurriedly taking out a proposal and handing it to him respectfully.
William's brows furrowed slightly and tempered his patience. He took the proposal and flipped it open.
'On The Feasibility and Prospect of Using Monkeys to Cultivate the Nine Transformation Golden Core Technique. '
He quickly flipped the pages and frowned, "This is too unethical. Raising monkeys to cultivate their Core and then killing them to retrieve that Core, how's that different from those shameless people who feed on monkeys' brains to cultivate themselves?
Saying this, he looked at his uncle Robert. He did not believe that Robert had not seen this beforehand.
Robert lightly shook his head and said coldly, "William, the life you're leading is too comfortable. You don't know that America is already suffering from internal and external problems! You're still thinking about animal ethics at this point in time? You should know that we're not the hegemons of the Earth like we were in the past, but lowly animals that have to start from scratch! We've fallen back to the bottom of the food chain. Above us are demons, devils, deities, buddhas, gods..."
Robert was born a secret agent. Although he had Morality, he still had the bearings of an iron-blooded soldier in his bones. In a critical moment like this, he would not hesitate at all.
William was dealt a direct blow by his uncle. His breath shortened with his guilty conscience.
He pondered about it, 'Forget it. It's not like they're using humans to cultivate'. Otherwise, he would never agree to them. After all, he had the title of the Son of Heaven.
'It'll just be like funding scientific research. There're many areas where monkeys are used for experiments in scientific research. ' He thought in a self-deceiving way.
"In that case, I'll invest 50 million USD for now..." William suddenly stopped himself, "No, this ability seems a little evil, so I'll have to ask the big boss first."
"Hm, you're right." Robert was speechless.
In situations like these, that person would have the most say in the matter.
William immediately drove his BMW. The other cars were too high-profile, so he switched to a more environmental-friendly one.
Taking the two men with him, he personally drove all the way to Vigilante A's villa in the north. He was familiar with the road and after reporting his name, an entranceway appeared in the concealment array, allowing the car in.
Coincidentally, Vigilante A was at home cultivating. Vapour hovered over his body as if he was in a sauna.
When he heard the purpose of their visit, Fang Ning did not beat around the bush and simply handed them a USB flash drive.
"This is the perfect version of that Nine Transformation Golden Core Technique ability. I consumed a great deal of energy and integrated the experience of worlds along with my sweat and blood in order to accomplish it. Also, if there're any matters like these in the future, you don't have to drive here anymore, just ask me directly through QQ." Fang Ning said casually.
"Thank you, Venerable One, " The three acted like they had hit the jackpot.
William was the savviest and gave him a gold card in return.
Everyone had a tacit understanding on how much money was in that card.
The System sighed, "This guy really saved me. He alone can help me solve the problem of money."
"Yeah, a just cause attracts much support. Sir System, you should learn from him too. Don't just oppress me." Fang Ning said weakly.
"Oh, right, why did you tell them to contact you on QQ earlier? Don't you always use WeChat instead?" The System freely changed the topic.
"That's because I just want to..." Fang Ning rolled his eyes.
"No, it's because you added too many people on WeChat, and are lazy to reply them one by one." The System hit the nail on the head.
"Yeah, yeah, I'm too lazy to reply them. You reply them next time, since you have threads anyway." Fang Ning continued to cultivate.
He practiced the Dragonization Ability every day and had already managed to learn it. This ability was indeed vastly profound and mysterious after Sir System perfected it.
The Nine Transformation Golden Core Technique was a godly technique for ordinary people, but it could not even begin to compare to the System's three main kernel abilities.
The Dragonization Ability was a technique that it started cultivating long ago. The System had long since perfected it. However, since Fang Ning slacked off and stopped cultivating after just a tiny taste, he did not go any further.
In other words, in the two months he painstakingly cultivated to impersonate the Dream Incarnation, his Dragonization Ability improved, which gave him a profound comprehension of this skill. Cultivating the ability to the peak would be unpredictable.
It was completely not something that could be compared to the Nine Transformation Golden Core Technique that the System made up till the seventh layer before stopping.
...
At this time, as if they had just received a treasure, William and the other two men crowded in front of a computer and opened up a PDF file.
William was not interested in the technique because cultivation was too tough. He knew that in order to cultivate awaken powers strong enough to protect himself with, he had spent countless hard work and passionless nights.
However, he could not put down this ability after reading the first two chapters.
He could buy magical energy using money?
Magical energy was originally exclusive to each person. However, with this mysterious and extraordinary power, it could be freely exchanged as if it was a product?
That was possible as long as everyone cultivated this ability?
"I've decided. I'll invest 3 billion USD to promote this ability free of charge so that all Americans can are able to learn it!" He said righteously.
"Hehe, I thank you on their behalf." Robert said in gratitude.
Currently, he was deeply shocked by Vigilante A's wisdom. His wisdom was indeed as vast as the ocean. Was there anything in the world that could hold him back?
With one move, what was originally a bloody storm turned into a free market.
For the first time, he was optimistic about the unknown future.
Perhaps this nephew of his was really smart and only appeared slow-witted. He was never pessimistic, always lived in the present, and knew how to seize opportunities as they came. This time, he might really be able to rise.
