Chapter 1606 - 1119: Taken from the People, Used for the People

Chapter 1606: Chapter 1119: Taken from the People, Used for the People

It felt as if the system sensed his difficulty and thoughtfully popped up a new prompt—

[Detected a large number of ownerless items needing identification. Would you like to expend ten years of lifespan to automatically categorize them?]

Jiang Yuan: ...

Ugh! The system knows I’ve been absorbing lifespan lately, with a balance accumulated over eighty million years, so I don’t care about this small amount of life, do I? Ten years of lifespan isn’t too greedy; I can easily earn it back by absorbing an evil cultivator.

The expenditure doesn’t even count as a fraction, it saves quite a bit of time and effort, which is fairly worthwhile.

Clicking confirm, the progress bar slowly moves forward, and he watches as heaps of "little mountains" swoop and fly around! The sky is filled with various magical artifacts and treasures flashing by, leaving colorful brilliance that resembles countless meteors falling all at once.

The progress bar ends after five minutes, categorizing into several piles based on type.

"No wonder the Little Demon Cultivators who join the Commerce Association immediately fall from grace, they really have money!" Jiang Yuan exclaimed while looking at the spoils from collecting over two hundred thousand demon cultivators, piled high with Immortal Jade.

For a normal demon cultivator to have one or two pieces of Immortal Jade is already extremely rare. Yet, these demon cultivators from the Commerce Association barely have spirit stones, all they have are piles of millions of spirit stones and Immortal Jade! Awfully wealthy!

And this is just for attending an Immortal Alliance meeting, not going to an auction or other spending event; carrying this much Immortal Jade with them, they are truly dripping with wealth.

Stepping forward to touch, automatic pickup directly into the account.

As the sound of gold coins tinkled next to his ear, the original account balance of only ten million began to roll wildly.

"Two billion! Three billion! Holy moly!" Jiang Yuan nearly lost count of how many zeros there were for the first time, staring for a while as the account balance raced toward the hundred billion mark, suddenly understanding why money could corrupt the cultivator’s daoxin.

The Demon Realm Alliance directly governs over ten thousand prosperous cities, and anyone who holds a bit of power in the alliance accesses spirit stones counted by tens of millions or billions.

Just a slight flick of a finger, skimming off the top, would be enough to live comfortably for several years.

The entertainment ways and methods of cultivators, compared to the real urban life with cell phones and computers, are absolutely a lower dimension suppression. With money, they can live and play more enjoyably in the prosperous world!

To resist the temptation, not engaging in graft, tying down a wandering heart, that daoxin is truly steadfast.

[Achievement: Account balance first exceeds one billion. Reward: Lucky lottery +1]

"System, can we negotiate to let me pay to do tasks? How about it? You see, when my lifespan broke through ten million, you didn’t give me a reward." Jiang Yuan had already lost count of the zeros; he just felt this money could absolutely max out the Fuyun Space and Crystal Palace!

Last time when the lifespan broke through a million years, there was a universal celebration gift package given, increasing the lifespan of all contracted members by a hundred years. Now, breaking through ten million with not a peep, he has reason to suspect the system, avoiding giving too much frequent rewards, pretends ignorance.

In the end, the account balance stopped at one hundred and twenty billion, Jiang Yuan became numb to the digits, and added a sentence, "The achievement reward for breaking through a hundred billion still hasn’t been given!"

No response, just a gigantic, ornate lottery wheel appearing in front of him.

"How about we negotiate? Not allowing payment, and lacking two achievement rewards, simply give me an accelerator during the lottery!" Looking at the pile of new "fuel," he self-negotiated: "With an accelerator, I can complete the main tasks faster. It’s good for both of us, isn’t it?"

Jiang Yuan paused and shouted, "I’m drawing now! Give me an accelerator, and it’s definitely a win-win!"

He pressed the button to start the lottery.

The flashy lottery wheel began to spin gradually with cheerful music.

The wheel’s speed slowed more and more, his heart couldn’t help but rise; today’s prize is directly tied to the system connection.

If he really got the accelerator, it would mean the system is fully aware of everything about him and just feign ignorance. This matches the style of Mr. Li after he died, where the system still jumped out to condemn;

But if he didn’t get the desired accelerator, it means the system refuses to communicate, and never negotiates, he’d have to give up on this idea in the future.

[Congratulations on winning—Accelerator! Already stored in Storage Bag, click to claim and use.]

[Accelerator: Divine Artifact for yard construction. You can add spirit stones or other high-value items as fuel, choose directional acceleration, including but not limited to agricultural, pastoral, workshop manufacturing, cooking, etc., production lines.]

Accompanied by dazzling electronic fireworks exploding in his line of sight, the pop-up prompt made Jiang Yuan burst into laughter, "Thanks a lot! It would be even better if I could pay!"

Good to negotiate, there’s a long road ahead; reasoning and emotional appeals, occasionally allowing a minor reprieve shouldn’t be difficult.

With the construction divine artifact in hand, he looked at the nearest pile—all chicken ribs, magical artifacts, lifebound weapons, and the like, classified particularly clearly by the system [Disassemblable Group]; the larger pile named [Scrap Fuel Group].

As Jiang Yuan bypassed the scrap group, the smile on his face froze for two seconds, "Damn! Is this borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha?"

A special collection of over a thousand storage bags marked as [Human Support Plan Gift Group].

He examined closely and said with a twitching corner of his mouth, "Alright, anyway these things are useless to me, things above the Wilderness should belong to the Human Race, also can be used for them."
