King of Creation-Chapter 766 - 756: Multiple Gains at Once?

The small mountain-like pile of mid-grade Spirit Crystals stunned martial artists throughout the bustling first-floor hall of Stars Tower, with some looking at Ye Zhen as if he were a fat lamb ready for slaughter.

Not only the martial artists, but even some shopkeepers in the first-floor hall were shocked by the scene before them.

Of course, the shopkeepers of Stars Tower weren’t surprised by the mountain of Spirit Crystals in front of them; they handled more Spirit Crystals daily at Stars Tower than this pile could ever match.

They were astonished by the actions of this young master, behaving in such a way in front of everyone—isn’t he just asking for trouble?

Every martial artist present in the hall of Stars Tower was not to be trifled with, living bloody lives daily. This large pile of mid-grade Spirit Crystals, totaling close to a million, would certainly stir some desires.

A not-so-distant shopkeeper from Stars Tower couldn’t stand it any longer and urged, "Old Yu, what are you standing there for? Quickly prepare the Demon Cores for this young master!"

The stunned Yua Manager came to his senses, realizing that he wasn’t in charge of unnecessary affairs.

The one who could directly bring out over a million mid-grade Spirit Crystals might be backed by an incredibly powerful entity.

"Young Master, at Stars Tower, our prices for goods are transparent and honest. A Heavenly Level Lower Grade Demon Core is priced at 40,000 mid-grade Spirit Crystals each, a Heavenly Level Middle Grade Demon Core is 100,000 each, and a Heavenly Level High Grade Demon Core is 200,000 each," Yua Manager explained.

Ye Zhen, disguised using the True Transformation Technique as a spoiled young master, did not even blink as he shouted, "All Heavenly Level High Grade Demon Cores you have, bring them here. Also bring all Wind Element Demon Cores of Heavenly Level Middle and Lower Grades!"

"All the Heavenly Level High Grade Demon Cores?" Yua Manager was even more shocked, "Young Master, we at Stars Tower are different from other shops, with a significant inventory. Other shops consider having three or four Heavenly Level High Grade Demon Cores impressive, but our Stars Tower has over thirty in stock!"

"Is thirty a lot? What, are you afraid I can’t afford them?" Ye Zhen’s eyes flipped as another surge of dazzling light emitted from the Low Grade Spiritual Ring on his finger, piling another mountain-like heap of mid-grade Spirit Crystals in the middle of the hall.

This scene startled Yua Manager, and the aura emanating from the two- or three-million mid-grade Spirit Crystals completely alarmed some high-level stewards at Stars Tower.

For example, Deacon Ding, who was on the second floor specially serving senior members of Stars Tower, was drawn by the aura exuded from the two- or three-million mid-grade Spirit Crystals.

A transaction involving two- or three-million mid-grade Spirit Crystals is considered substantial even for Stars Tower, and this seemingly frivolous young master might just have more worth extracting, "Yua Manager, allow old me to take over with this young master!"

Upon arrival, Deacon Ding immediately dispelled Yua Manager, who didn’t dare to utter a word of protest, only serving cautiously on the side.

"How may I address this young master?" Deacon Ding greeted Ye Zhen with a fist salute and a cordial smile.

"Mu!"

Ye Zhen uttered one word, followed by a slight frown, "Before coming, I was told how large Stars Tower is, yet everything is so cumbersome when buying a few Heavenly Level High Grade Demon Cores. Are you still in business or not?"

"Haha, we were neglectful; esteemed guests like you should be ushered into private rooms for VIP transactions—Master Mu, please!" Deacon Ding invited with a fist salute.

The fake Master Mu played by Ye Zhen loosened his brows, finally showing a hint of a smile on his stern face, "Took you long enough to show someone with good instincts at Stars Tower!" He then stomped upstairs directly.

"Master Mu, what about these Spirit Crystals?" Deacon Ding hesitantly asked, looking at the two piles of mountain-like crystals, leaving them unattended?

"Count them!"

"Uh... alright!"

With a casual flip, Deacon Ding took out two empty storage rings and packed away the two mountain-like piles of mid-grade Spirit Crystals, then followed Ye Zhen upstairs, while many martial artists in the first-floor hall watched Deacon Ding disappear into the passage with wide-open, round eyes, unwilling to take their gaze away.

Two or three million mid-grade Spirit Crystals—among the martial artists in the hall, perhaps only ten to twenty percent of them could amass such wealth over ten to twenty years.

As for the remaining eighty to ninety percent of martial artists, they might never accumulate such an extensive amount of Spirit Crystals throughout their lives.

"Master Mu, we have a total inventory of thirty-four Heavenly Level High Grade Demon Cores at Stars Tower. Does the young master want them all or...." Deacon Ding asked Ye Zhen inside the VIP room.

Ye Zhen was indifferent, smacking a voluptuous maid’s round derriere with a loud slap and taking advantage by squeezing it, causing the maid to yelp loudly, almost spilling the tea.

"Hey, the maids used by Stars Tower are interesting. This figure, haha!" Ye Zhen exhibited a lecherous attitude, making Deacon Ding somewhat uncomfortable. Which household was this spoiled young master from?

"Uh... Master Mu, concerning the quantity of Heavenly Level High Grade Demon Cores...."

"All of them. Isn’t that a redundant question? I’ve already said it, all—all of them! Are you suggesting I can’t afford the Spirit Crystals?" Ye Zhen rebuked impatiently, making Deacon Ding stunned.

"Of course not, definitely not; I’ll arrange personnel right away...."

"Don’t be in such a rush, Deacon Ding, come, come, let’s discuss something, shall we?" Ye Zhen pulled Deacon Ding closer to him.

Deacon Ding was taken aback, "Please go ahead, Master Mu."

"Deacon Ding, I just bought several million Mid-grade Spirit Crystals’ worth of things, can that maid over there accompany me for ten days or so? Let me, hehe..." Ye Zhen, disguised as Master Mu, rubbed his hands and laughed lewdly.

Deacon Ding was instantly shocked, he never expected this Master Mu in front of him to make such a request, truly a spoiled brat of spoiled brats, "Master Mu, this matter, I’m really unable to help you. Although this maid is employed by Stars Tower, she’s also a Martial Artist who reached the Spirit Summoning Realm. freewёbnoνel.com

Once her Cultivation breaks through to the Spirit Transformation Realm, she regains her freedom. This, I really cannot..."

Before Deacon Ding could finish, Ye Zhen became angry, abruptly slapping Deacon Ding on the shoulder, "Damn it, you’re not going to be stingy like this, are you? It’s just a maid, yet you’re making excuses?

I’ll pay ten thousand Mid-grade Spirit Crystals to have her for a month!"

"Uh..." Deacon Ding was stunned again, he suddenly realized this young master was very difficult to serve.

"Still won’t do, twenty thousand Mid-grade Spirit Crystals!"

"Forty thousand?"

"Sixty thousand?"

"Eighty thousand?"

"A hundred thousand?"

As the price increased to a hundred thousand Mid-grade Spirit Crystals, Ye Zhen’s expression suddenly turned cold, "Deacon Ding, you’re not playing with me, are you? A hundred thousand Mid-grade Spirit Crystals wouldn’t get me a Spirit Summoning Realm woman? With a hundred thousand Mid-grade Spirit Crystals, I could simply put out a bounty and kidnap several Soul Sea Realm beauties, couldn’t I?"

At this point, Deacon Ding was utterly shocked too, spending a hundred thousand Mid-grade Spirit Crystals for a Spirit Summoning Realm woman, that’s too reckless, right? A hundred thousand Mid-grade Spirit Crystals would be enough to cultivate a Soul Sea Realm Martial Artist.

Of course, Deacon Ding also witnessed the obstinacy and recklessness of this Master Mu, hurriedly nodding with a bitter smile, "Master Mu, in this matter, I can only agree to ask for you, but autonomy lies with the maid. If she doesn’t want to, I can’t force her..."

"Now that’s more like it!" Ye Zhen laughed heartily, winking at Deacon Ding as if he’d found a kindred spirit, laughing while appreciatively patting Deacon Ding’s back, "Deacon Ding, rest assured, after this is done, I’ll generously reward Deacon Ding!" He finished with a knowing look.

Deacon Ding wore a bitter smile on his face, feeling a bit like a pimp.

"Fine, fine!" Master Mu said, "I’ll go extract those thirty-four Heavenly Level High Grade Demon Cores, please have a seat, I’ll be right back!"

"Alright, make sure to bring all the Wind Element Demon Cores within the Heavenly Level Middle Grade and Heavenly Level Lower Grade, as well, don’t worry about me being short on Spirit Crystals!" Ye Zhen shouted towards Deacon Ding’s departing figure.

Once Deacon Ding’s figure was completely gone, the spoiled demeanor and lewd smile on Ye Zhen’s disguised Master Mu face instantly disappeared, replaced by seriousness, and a faint ripple of Divine Soul Waves.

Within the Divine Soul Waves, Ye Zhen’s Divine Sense attached to the omnipresent Earth Spiritual Power in the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, quickly extending out. In less than half a breath, his Divine Sense had attached to those tiny Earth Spiritual Powers embedded tightly in Deacon Ding’s back, smaller than dust by several magnitudes.

Then, Ye Zhen’s Divine Sense followed Deacon Ding’s steps, moving along.

The tiny Earth Spiritual Powers embedded in Deacon Ding’s back, smaller than dust by several magnitudes, were driven in by Ye Zhen when he slapped Deacon Ding’s back vigorously during the maid purchase.

Taking advantage of the humorous slapping opportunity, these Earth Spiritual Powers that can attach Divine Sense were embedded, which was Ye Zhen’s chance because only this way could Ye Zhen silently discover the exact location of the Stars Tower Treasure Vault.

The Stars Tower is most famous for selling the world’s treasured items for a living; all Martial Artists know that Heaven and Earth Treasures, rare artifacts, and spiritual objects are endlessly abundant inside Stars Tower, but very few know the most impressive thing about Stars Tower is the means of protecting these treasures.

The design of the Stars Tower Treasure Vault is nearly perfect; the process of extracting treasures from the Vault is incredibly complicated and exceedingly stringent, triggering an alarm immediately if there’s any procedural error.

Up to now, among more than a hundred Treasure Vaults of the Stars Tower across the True Profound Continent, in these several hundred close to a thousand years, only three successful robberies have been recorded.

Two of them, reportedly had insiders colluding with outsiders to succeed.

As for the third time, it was an outright crushing robbery, reportedly triggered by an elder from the Stars Building offending a particularly terrifying being.

All of this was shared with Ye Zhen in a casual conversation by Hai Luoshuang, the Stars Tower Master from Black Dragon Domain, when Ye Zhen was still in Black Dragon Domain.

And the reason Ye Zhen disguised as Master Mu today was to do something big, to play a big game with multiple gains in mind.

Of course, compared to Ye Zhen’s idea of robbing the Stars Tower Treasure Vault, the focus of Ye Zhen’s plan is even more astounding! (To be continued.
