After a few days of leisure, Lin Yun once again closed himself in for cultivation.
Each breakthrough in a major realm is a hurdle. After breaking through to the Star Realm, his rate of progress began to quicken again.
Two months later, a total of four points of golden light were born in his dantian, and around the golden Dan, like four points of stars, he had already stepped into the mid-stage of the Star Realm.
'It's been almost a year since I left Blue Star...'
Having stabilised his realm, Lin Yun opened his eyes and spoke softly.
It had only been a little over two years since he obtained the Cosmic Trading System, and a year was too long.
The Holy Mother should have already entered the Immortal Realm, the Celestial Realm, or even the Outer Heaven.
The spiritual energy transmitted from Blue Star had remained unchanged.
From this perspective, Blue Star should be fine.
If it had been fine for a year, then it should really be fine.
Perhaps, this is the result of the Holy Mother's conversation with those powerful beings from the immortal and heavenly realms.
Obtaining nearly 300,000 spiritual crystals every day, he obtained more than 100 million spiritual crystals from the Blue Star in total this year, which also allowed Lin Yun to witness the power of time.
This year, the humans on Tian Zhu Xing also provided him with more than 3 million spiritual crystals, which, although not much compared to his current assets, was still a considerable amount.
In short, Xing Lan was very satisfied.
In addition, Lin Yun invested in developing some industries on Tian Zhu Xing and collected resources in the surrounding area, which also earned him a lot of income, a total of more than 50 million spirit crystals.
In addition, Lin Yun earned income from doing business.
In this year, Lin Yun's income has already exceeded 200 million spirit crystals.
It can only be said that the more assets there are, the larger the investment and the greater the income.
Lin Yun has assets of more than 170 billion, and this is still after he set aside a sum of money to purchase a robot with the strength of a Level 10 cultivator. Add to that the fact that some resources have not been realised and investment has not been liberalised, and that investment has only just begun with a small amount invested, and that is why there has been so little gain.
Otherwise, if all of the 170 billion assets were invested, there would only be 2 billion a year, and even apart from the spiritual crystals provided by the humans of the Blue Star and the humans of the Tian Zhu Star, there has only been an income of around 1 billion, which is simply not enough.
The main reason is that their expenses are also very high.
The Blue Star humans practice very quickly, and Lin Yun's practice speed is not slow either. The stronger the strength, the more resources are consumed. Not to mention that they practice so quickly, the resources consumed are also astronomical.
This year, Lin Yun, the people around him, and his subordinates have consumed a total of more than 3 billion spirit crystals. Calculating like this, the assets of more than 170 billion yuan will only be enough for them to spend for about 50 years.
In fact, this is not the way to calculate. As their strength increases, the resources they consume will become even more terrifying.
At that time, their annual consumption may be several times or even dozens of times what it is now.
Now, there is already a sign of this. The consumption in the first month is already three to four times that of the last month.
...
There are also four seasons on Tian Zhu Xing.
Spring goes, autumn comes, flowers bloom and fall.
Soon, another year passed.
'Huh?'
On this day, Lin Yun was practising within the battleship when suddenly he looked up and looked into the distance.
Hoo—
He stood up and the next moment, he had disappeared, but he had entered the core control room.
He saw a message come from a screen.
Hundreds of billions of li away, three battleships were flying this way.
'Finally back?'
Lin Yun whispered.
According to the information fed back from his battleship, all three of these battleships are of Level 6 technological civilisation, and they are all the best battleships of Level 6 technological civilisation.
'It seems that this powerful being from the Tian Zhu Star has gained a lot in that place...' Lin Yun's eyes flashed with a sharp light as he sighed slightly.
In fact, everything on the universal trading system is relatively cheap. For a normal technological civilization, without the existence of someone like the owner of the universal trading system, the value of a supreme battleship of level 6 technological civilization is not low, not to mention three of them.
It is estimated that even in that level 6 civilization, it is a force to be reckoned with.
'Originally, I was thinking that I didn't need to buy the robot with the strength of a Level 10 cultivator, but now it seems that I have to buy it.' Lin Yun shook his head.
The further one goes, the more difficult it is to cultivate. A year has passed, and he has only just barely cultivated from the mid-starlight realm to the pinnacle of the starlight realm.
Currently, his strength is only comparable to an average Level 9 junior cultivator, and he is no match for even a slightly skilled Level 9 mid-level cultivator.
That powerful person from Tianzhuxing reached the mid-stage of the ninth level more than five hundred years ago, and now, he is at least at the late-stage of the ninth level, and it is likely that he is at the pinnacle of the ninth level, or even...higher?
After all, the other party actually possesses three ultimate warships of the sixth level of technological civilisation, which is somewhat unexpected.
Generally speaking, the size of one's assets represents one's capabilities.
'If that is the case, I am afraid that a robot with the strength of an average tenth-level cultivator is still unable to deal with the other party,' Lin Yun mused.
Then...let's buy a robot with the strength of a mid-level Tier 10 cultivator!
Soon, Lin Yun made a decision.
Robots with the strength of a Level 10 cultivator have been on Lin Yun's radar for some time now. He has tried talking to some shopkeepers, but they have all been very cold and indifferent, as if they don't care whether he buys or not.
The standard price for a robot with the strength of an Level 11 cultivator on the Universal Trading System starts at one trillion spirit crystals. Perhaps it is this price that makes the shopkeepers selling robots with the strength of a Level 10 cultivator feel aggrieved?
Why is the standard price on the universal trading system a hundred times lower for a robot with one level less power?
Anyway, a robot with the power of a Level 10 practitioner is almost the top technology in this universe, mastered by very few people. A robot with the power of a Level 11 practitioner is unaffordable for most people, and they are reluctant to buy it, so they can only buy a robot with the power of a Level 10 practitioner.
Among them, there are no shortage of wealthy people.
At this price, if you don't buy it, there are plenty of people who will.
Lin Yun talked to a few people, but didn't continue the conversation.
He finally chose a shop that was willing to give him a 98% discount and decided to buy the robot there if he bought it.
During this period of time, many of Lin Yun's resources were sold in various ways, and he had nearly 30 billion spiritual crystals.
'Hum——'
As Lin Yun paid the bill, a minute later, a robot appeared in his trading space, dressed in a fiery red outfit. This was the style of the shopkeeper, who did not accept custom orders.
The appearance is also very different from that of a Blue Star person. He has pointed ears, several blood streaks on his forehead and face, and two slightly protruding horns on his head, not long, only three or four centimetres, mixed with long purple hair, not easy to notice if you're not paying attention, like decorations.
No choice, cheap goods, other shops can accept buyers to customise their appearance, perhaps this is the reason why this shop can offer a 98% discount?
However, time was urgent, and Lin Yun did not have time to customise it. As long as the quality was not bad, it was fine. After all, the appearance of the other party was not much different from that of a human from the Blue Star, and it was still quite pleasing to the eye.
'You are from the Realm of the Fiery Sun, so I will name you Yangyi!' Looking at the man in front of him, Lin Yun nodded and said.
'Thank you, master, for bestowing this name upon me,' Yangyi bowed and smiled.
'Well, these three warships are our enemies later on, so get ready,' Lin Yun said, nodding and looking at the three warships on the screen.
These three warships were accelerating through space at a very high speed. In just a short while, they had already travelled two to three billion kilometres. At the current speed, they would reach the Tian Zhu Star in about half an hour.
'Lin Yun!'
'Boss!'
'Brother!'
At this time, Xinglan, Xia Qingqing, Zhao Gang and the others received the message and also began to rush over one after the other, shouting.
'Three ultimate warships of a sixth-level technological civilization?'
Subsequently, they noticed the data on the screen and were shocked, exclaiming in unison.
Obviously, the strength of this fleet also exceeded their expectations.
'Well, I have already purchased Yangyi, who has the strength of a mid-level Tier 10 martial artist,' Lin Yun nodded and looked at Yangyi beside him.
'A robot with the strength of a mid-level Tier 10 martial artist...'
Upon hearing Lin Yun's words, Xing Lan and the others were shocked again, and they hurriedly looked at the red-clad man next to Lin Yun.
Lin Yun had actually purchased a robot with the strength of a Level 10 cultivator.
Moreover, it was mid-Level 10.
This was a super expert...
Unlike Lin Yun's appearance and aesthetic sense, for a while, Xing Lan and the others looked at Yangyi and no matter how they looked at him, he looked cool.
At the same time, their hearts also eased slightly.
Such a formidable master has already been bought, so there shouldn't be any danger in this regard.
