Fake Husband of the Glamorous CEO-Chapter 402: Foundation Establishment Cultivator goes to work

Chapter 402: 402: Foundation Establishment Cultivator goes to work

The Foundation Establishment Pill swept across global news segments with an auction sky-high price of 7.8 billion US dollars.

This might be the highest transaction record in the history of auction houses.

Normally, the winner of an auction would keep a low profile, especially considering it’s a Foundation Establishment Pill, for fear of attracting deadly trouble.

But this time, the winner of the auction was the Oil King.

He managed to win the bid from the clutches of the Angsa and Europe forces, which likely made him quite proud.

So he didn’t choose to stay low-key but deliberately leaked the news, seriously annoying both major Western powers.

Because of this, the Oil King also made the global news segments and the power rankings due to being the first Foundation Establishment Cultivator in East Middle, severely boosting his presence.

During an interview, the King took the opportunity to announce his abdication of the throne to focus on cultivation, letting his son Salman take over.

"Forget it, let that old man have his bargain. As long as it’s not those bastards from Europe, it’s fine."

"Besides, even if that old man becomes a Foundation Establishment cultivator, he can’t go to the Arena to earn points because the Foundation Building Channel is full of Dragon Nation’s experts. He won’t be able to defeat them; he would just be handing out points for free, which is useless."

On Angsa’s side, Singh and others in the conference room accepted the fact that they lost the auction.

Not because they didn’t have money, but because the rules of the auction were too stringent.

They wanted liquid cash!

Not assets for collateral!

Despite the Angsa forces and the old European powers having trillions in wealth,

those were market values penetrating various industries, and the actual liquid funds were not that plentiful.

Thus it let the cash-rich oil baron take advantage.

Otherwise, the final price of the Foundation Establishment Pill would have definitely surged past 10 billion US dollars!

David was surprised: "But why would that old fellow abdicate in favor of his son? Logically speaking, as the strongest cultivator in East Middle, it doesn’t make sense for him to abdicate. Is there any trickery involved, do you have any other intelligence?"

Someone from the DuPont Family said, "I did hear something, but I don’t know if it’s true."

Singh: "What information?"

DuPont Family Head: "According to members of the East Middle Royal Family, this king was taken by a previously Ascended Innate Master to work for him in mining."

This statement immediately caught the attention of everyone present.

At the same time, in a video conference in Europe, this news was also being discussed.

William from Windsor Royal Family shared his information, "The news I got from Dragon Nation is that one of the previously Ascended Nascent Souls, who is the Offerant from the He family, seems to have invited this king to mine in his territory."

"Mine what?"

Someone exclaimed in surprise.

William: "A Spirit Stone Mine. It’s said that planets outside the universe have different grades of Spirit Stone Mines. Rumors had it that even without full production, the two Nascent Soul Families can supply their descendants with thousands of Spirit Stones each month."

"This time, the old king follows to the Nascent Soul Territory, it’s probably to work for them."

The head of the Goldfinch family was somewhat tempted, "Is there a specific reward criterion?"

William: "It seems like they give the old king a hundred Low-grade Spirit Stones a month."

Gulp.

On the video conference screen, someone made the motion of swallowing.

The others had only regrettably thought they had lost the Foundation Establishment Pill to the old oil king, but now, hearing this news, their regrets were massively amplified.

A hundred Spirit Stones a month.

At a price of thirty to fifty million RMB each, that’s three to five billion RMB a month.

Though they spent more than 500 billion RMB on the Foundation Establishment Pill, money can be earned back.

But Spirit Stones? You don’t even have a channel to buy them if you want.

You can only slowly earn them through the Arena.

Nearly 12,000 Innate Masters in Europe and hundreds in the Qi Cultivation Stage could only earn less than 100 Spirit Stones a month.

After dividing among the major families, each might get less than 10.

"Damn, we only knew that the Dragon Nation’s Foundation Establishment Cultivators had a hard time flying through space, but we forgot that if a Nascent Soul cultivator takes them to the territory, then the Foundation Establishment cultivators would still be useful."

The other Family Heads were also panicked: "The key point is that we only knew there were various valuable mines on alien planets, but had not realized that included Spirit Stone resources!"

On the other hand, after collecting intelligence, the Angsa forces had a consensus similar to that of the Europeans.

"A hundred Spirit Stones a month could sustain a family. With a normal person absorbing one every three days, it’s enough for three key descendants to absorb throughout the month. The efficiency is definitely thirty times ours!"

They were green with envy!

Compared to the ten or so Spirit Stones each family received per month, and assuming it’s distributed among the young with Spirit Roots, each person would only get one per month!

"If this old king hints to his family that they can supply so many Spirit Stones per month, then the speed at which their family advances to Foundation Establishment will be faster than ours. Then, they could send out a second, third, or even more Foundation Establishment cultivators to work in the Nascent Soul Territory, only further increasing our gap!"

Damn!

They were beginning to feel sick with worry after calculating all the possible chain reactions.

Who could have thought of this?

On the He family’s Offerant side, it was actually Gu Feng who began to open up the Teleportation Array permissions internally, giving them the chance to bring the oil king back to his territory.

Apart from this, he also allowed 48 students to use the Teleportation Array to work part-time for the three Offerants in mining during their free time.

It saved them from the internal competition within the [Arena], where they could hardly earn a few Spirit Stones in a month.

The three Offerants were also happy for these people to shuttle between Earth and their territories, helping them bring some resources back to their old homes on Earth.

When the old king took leave to return to his own country in the first month, he delighted his family members by bringing back 100 Spirit Stones.

Angsa and European powers learned of the old king’s return and sent envoys to visit.

They wanted to understand more about the resources beyond the stars.

The old king shared his experiences in the star territories.

"The outside world has a wealth of cultivation resources beyond your imagination. Spirit Stones are just basic energy crystals hidden beneath the earth, but the many natural treasures that have formed over thousands of years on the surface exceed the energy value of those Spirit Stones. Unfortunately, my Cultivation level isn’t enough. As I passed by some planets, I couldn’t even enter their stellar atmospheric rings."

"However, I performed well, and upon my return, the Lord said there’s a chance he might take a few of us to brave other unknown planets."

"Although there’s some danger, it’s better than us adventuring on our own with a Nascent Soul accompanying us."

Hearing him say this, the other families were even more envious.

They all began to long for the things beyond the universe.
