Chapter 153: In Front of the Paywall System, Anyone Is Poor
The current amount of System currency he possessed was no longer the same as when Cui Heng had just walked out of the Beginner’s Space.
Although his main goal had always been to collect the seven emotions of all living beings to nurture a Nascent Soul, he did not relax his collection of system currency.
From Juhe County to Lu County, then to Changfeng Prefecture City, he had also gone to other places a few times.
Actually, every time he arrived at a place, he would pay attention to the things that might contain the foundation of civilization and the accumulation of time.
He transformed the aura on it into currency.
To this day, the System’s currency has become quite abundant.
He had more than two million!
[Currency: 2,127,8569.5]
The biggest gain was provided by the Wang Family of Langya.

As one of the Seven Distinguished Families that had been passed down for more than 3,000 years, the artifacts and antiques stored in their clan could be said to be huge. They contributed more than a million coins in one go.
More than two million coins seemed to be a lot.
However, Cui Heng calculated that if he entered the Beginner’s Space for just five days every month…
He would spend it all in two months.
After all, every time he entered, the expenses would increase by ten times. It was too much.
Returning to the Beginner’s Space and cultivating inside was ultimately an unattainable dream.
Of course, the Beginner’s Space had already been upgraded to a Grotto-Heaven World.
Thinking of this, Cui Heng suddenly asked the System, “Is there a way to let me stay in the Grotto-Heaven for a long time?”
(Hello, Respected Host! Welcome to the Omnipotent Immortal Cultivation System. This System will serve you wholeheartedly and protect your path of cultivation.]
[In the current package mode, the conditions for the host to enter the Grotto-Heaven are: You have five chances to enter the Grotto-Heaven every month, each time for a day.

[Grotto-Heaven Half-Year Tour:…]
[Grotto-Heaven One Year Tour:…]
The corners of Cui Heng’s mouth twitched slightly as he closed the system notification on the spot. Even with his late-stage Golden Core realm heart, it was difficult for him to withstand this sadness that came from poverty.
The cost of entering the Grotto-Heaven was too exaggerated.
If he wanted to stay inside for two months, he actually needed 25 million coins.
And his entire fortune was only about two million coins.
As for the option to upgrade the package, he directly skipped it. Not to mention the price of 1 billion, he did not even have the qualifications to buy it in a short period of time.
“To think that I planned to go into seclusion in the Grotto-Heaven for 49 days after collecting the Seven Emotions.” Cui Heng pinched his temples, feeling a headache.
When the Light of Seven Emotions reached a height of seven feet, he would have completed this stage of cultivation. Next, he would have to enter seclusion for 49 days to let his Golden Core nurture spirituality and activate to form a Nascent Soul. Only then could he break through to the Nascent Soul realm.
During his seclusion, Cui Heng had to devote himself fully to it. He could not be disturbed by the outside world at all. Otherwise, all his efforts would be in vain and he might even face the calamity of death.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, he should find someone who could be absolutely trusted and was powerful enough to guard the place of seclusion to prevent anyone from disturbing him.
Or he could find a place that was absolutely safe and could ensure that he would not be disturbed.
With Cui Heng’s personality, he was naturally biased towards the latter option.
The first thing he thought of was to enter the Grotto-Heaven to break through.
That was definitely the safest place.
However, he did not expect the cost to be so shocking
“Fortunately, these two million coins were only collected from a few places. If I can collect from the entire Great Jin, it should be enough to last me two months.”
When Cui Heng thought of this, he felt much more relaxed.
However, in order to avoid a situation where he could not collect the last bit of currency, he felt that he should use it sparingly before he gathered 25 million coins.
He had to at least maintain 200,000 coins temporarily, which was a fraction of the current currency.
Although this bit of currency was insignificant compared to the cost of staying in the Grotto-Heaven for a long time, it was enough to use for the normal consumption of the existing package. “For safety’s sake, I should buy a Primary Grade Dao Robe first.” Cui Heng thought to himself.
(Primary Grade Dao Robe: A Dao robe with relatively weak Dharmic powers. It is warm in the winter and cool in the summer. It can drive mosquitoes, bugs, and dust away. You can change the style of the clothes at will. It can withstand a maximum strength attack from an Early-stage Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator.)
[Selling price: 100,000 coins (Complete version)]
The clothes on his body were actually condensed by his Dharmic powers. The material was far superior to any cloth from the mortal world and even contained the power of the Golden Core. At the same time, it could also warm him in winter and cool him in summer, repel mosquitoes and insects, and change the style of his clothes.
Cui Heng valued the fact that he could withstand the greatest attack of an early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator the most.
According to his experience, the difference in strength between an early-stage Golden Core cultivator and a peak-stage Nascent Soul cultivator was extremely huge. The greatest attack of an early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator could probably crush him like an ant.
Even if he was about to nurture a Nascent Soul, it would be bad if he encountered a Nascent Soul level attack before that.
100,000 coins.
It was only worth 10 percent of what he got from the Wang Family of Langya!
(Currency: -100,000]
Cui Heng immediately felt a cooling sensation on his body. The Primary Grade Dao Robe was already on his body. The texture was indeed much better than clothes condensed from Dharmic powers. It was very comfortable to wear.
Moreover, after putting on this Primary Grade Dao Robe, he made an unexpected discovery.
“This robe seems to be imprinted with the power of extremely brilliant runes. It’s of a higher level than the power of a Golden Core and is more spiritual. Is this the power of a Nascent Soul realm expert?”
This way, he could completely study the runes contained in this robe and begin to study the power of the Nascent Soul realm in advance, thereby reducing the difficulty of cultivating to the Nascent Soul realm.
It was an unexpected joy. “Yes, this 100,000 coins is worth it!” Cui Heng affirmed his decision in his heart again. He looked at the other package options and thought for a moment before saying in a low voice, “Where’s the Yellow-scarved Strongman?”
[Currency: -1000]
In the next moment, a burly man more than five meters tall dressed in yellow martial arts clothes with dark golden skin appeared out of thin air. His entire body was filled with muscles like a small mountain.
Then, he suddenly knelt in front of Cui Heng.
Whoosh!
The ground suddenly trembled.
“Greetings, Master Immortal!” The Yellow-scarved Strongman cupped his fists and bowed.
Cui Heng was silent for a moment before he chuckled. “It’s been a while, old buddy.”
The Yellow-scarved Strongman did not respond. He remained kneeling there. Cui Heng’s smile deepened when he saw this. He felt as if he had returned to the days when he was cultivating in peace in the Beginner’s Space. He smiled and said, “Get up.” Although he knew that the Yellow-scarved Strongman did not have true intelligence and would not respond to his greeting, he still said so.
After all, in the 300 years in the Beginner’s Space, the Yellow-scarved Strongman had accompanied him the longest.
However, because Cui Heng had summoned the Yellow-scarved Strongman from the courtyard of the State Overseer’s Office, the huge commotion just now immediately attracted several people.
Liu Yiyun, Zhang Shuming, and Liu Litao all ran over.
“Ancestral Grandmaster, are there enemies attacking?”
“Exalted Immortal, what happened? The ground seemed to have shaken just now?”
“Lord Overseer, what…”
However, when the three of them arrived and saw the five-meter-tall dark gold Yellow-scarved Strongman, they were all stunned.
Especially Liu Litao.
He was the last to arrive. When he saw the Yellow-scarved Strongman, he did not even finish speaking. He froze on the spot and could not say a word.
In the eyes of the three of them, the Yellow-scarved Strongman was like a god.
His entire bodies emitted an unattainable aura, making them feel like ants compared to him.
In fact, it was true.
This Yellow-scarved Strongman’s cultivation was equivalent to the early-stage Foundation Establishment realm. In the Nine Realms of the Immortal World, he was a Third Realm Deva.
To a Deity Realm expert, it was already an unimaginable existence.
“Ancestral Grandmaster, this is?” Liu Yiyun mustered her courage and asked in a low voice.
“You can say that he’s my servant.” Cui Heng smiled and said, “He got lost earlier and has just been found.”
Then, he said to the Yellow-scarved Strongman, “You can go back first.”
“Yes, Master Immortal!” The Yellow-scarved Strongman knelt down again.
Its voice was loud and clear, like thunder in the ears of Liu Yiyun and the others. Then, they saw this incomparably tall giant disappear.
He disappeared into thin air and was gone in an instant!
The three of them looked at each other, their hearts in turmoil.
Liu Litao only had one word in his mind.
“Immortal!”
Lord Overseer was indeed an Immortal. He had unbelievable power and methods!
Liu Yiyun and Zhang Shuming were both at the Deity Realm. They had a deep understanding of cultivation and had a general understanding of disappearing into thin air.
Human Immortals and Earth Immortals definitely could not do such a thing, not even Devas.
Could that giant be a Heaven Immortal or even a Heaven Monarch?
If that was the case, then…
The two of them looked at Cui Heng again. They had heard it clearly just now. The Yellow-scarved Strongman called Cui Heng”Master Immortal!”
An existence suspected to be a Heaven Immortal or even a Heaven Monarch actually called Cui Heng “Master Immortal”!
What did this mean?!
