David casually swaggered his way out of the restaurant, holding the sweets in his hand.
"Why hasn't she returned?" David muttered. Of course, he was thinking about Riley White. Even after months, she still hadn't updated him about the information he demanded from her.
That woman was too playful to have kept him waiting for so long.
"I will have to teach her a lesson when she returns," David snickered. He also wanted to ask if she was interested in working as an adult star.
Although the revenue generated by selling coffee cups was trendous, he still felt that just by relying on it alone, he couldn't reach the top. He still thought of other ways to rack in a ton of money.
While thinking, David took a bite out of an orange pastry made from exotic ingredients.
While enjoying the delicious pastry, he paid the bank the required amount, and a window displaying his stats appeared in front of him.

Remark: Congratulations on your successful breakthrough, but please don't forget about the bank.
Tsk, tsk!
Looking at his status report, David clicked his tongue in frustration. He was incredibly annoyed.
In all this ti, his comprehension of the Greater Law of Annihilation had only increased by 0.002 percent.
And that too only because of the sudden return on investnt that he had received.
He was still too far away from the Golden Core Realm Rank 4. But he had a general idea: as long as his comprehension of the Greater Law of Annihilation reached Embryo form, he would be ready for the Nascent Soul realm.
At Nascent Soul, a cultivator's fighting power underwent incredible change.
It was at this realm that they unlocked the miraculous Divine Force and Divine Domain, acquiring the ability to kill enemies from kiloters away.
Truly miraculous and beyond a mortal's comprehension!
Soone as powerful as David still couldn't fathom how all of these things worked, similar to how an ant could never fathom the vastness of the universe.
"I need to work on that too," David muttered as he glanced at the Crystallization of Life that he had extracted from Sophie.
"Demon of Fate."
Every ti he tried to use it, the world around would be filled with countless multicolored strings, gently intersecting with each other.
David had no idea what these lines represented, and the bank also didn't give him a clear explanation.
However, David had been able to find so similarities with Golden Eyes.
The Demon of Fate was most likely an evolved version of the Crystallization of Life, like Golden Eyes.
While thinking, David was back inside the bank. David felt refreshed after a short trip outside.
Imdiately, David's eyes landed on Lucas sitting on the floor like a statue.
David shook his head, not understanding how these people managed to do this.
In the next mont, he turned his head away and ignored him.
It was ti to fortify his Spiritual Space; he didn't want the situation like last ti to occur again, where he had to buy a pill.
Sitting on a nice-looking chair, David sent a strand of his consciousness towards the half-opened eyes on his palm.
Imdiately, David's consciousness appeared inside the dark space. The space seed even larger than ever before.
By a rough estimate, David felt that it stretched for at least a hundred kiloters.
Below his feet were mountains of spirit stones glowing lightly in the sa space.
[Welco, esteed cultivator!]
Green Heaven Web politely greeted him. This ti, its voice seed to be slightly strange, as if it was trying to woo David.
"Hmm! It appears I am ranked high on the list," David said. That could explain Green Heaven Web's behavior.
His high ranking was to be expected. Even with a 200-hundred-kiloter-long spiritual space, if he couldn't make it to the top 10 or sothing, it would be strange.
Just like the Foundation Building Realm cultivators list, there was also a list that ranked all the Golden Core Realm cultivators present in the Green Heaven World.
However, David wasn't in the mood to check the list for now.
David ignored everything else and searched for the technique.
Imdiately, the description of the technique that he was searching for appeared in front of him.
[Nine Star Heaven Locking Formation
Rating - 4.7
Price - 10 Million low-grade spirit stones
Sales - 100 million]
Without even blinking his eyes in contemplation, David purchased the technique. Ten million spirit stones were nothing for him now.
As soon as the transaction was completed, David felt the world around him fade, and he appeared on top of a mountain peak.
Imdiately, David noticed he wasn't alone; there was soone else in front of him.
A huge, broad-shouldered figure, dressed in a long black robe, was floating silently in the distance.
His eyes seed to contain the sun and the moon, making it difficult for ordinary people to make direct eye contact. Seeing his figure, one could clearly feel the man was soone who had witnessed the rise and fall of eras.
Before David could think about anything else, a commanding voice filled with incomparable majesty echoed on top of the mountain.
"Watch closely! I will demonstrate once."
Imdiately, David understood this man was going to demonstrate how the technique works.
Suddenly, nine humongous stars appeared around the man and started to revolve around him like planets revolving around the sun.
The mountain top was lit up with bright light. David was forced to close his eyes as the light was too piercing.
It was as if the sun had descended on the earth, allowing the earth to witness its full glory.
Suddenly, David felt the light around him dimming.
When he opened his eyes again, he was back in the dark space inside the half-opened eyes.
"Heh!" David gawked in confusion, not understanding what had happened.
Were they expecting him to learn the technique this way? David felt the thod was too crude and unreliable.
"Esteed cultivator, you still have two uses left. You can try again."
Green Heaven Web seed to have understood his thoughts and tried to cheer him up.
But after hearing Green Heaven Web's words, he was even more confused.
What did it an, two chances left? He didn't rember renting the technique.
He had bought it.
[Esteed cultivator...]
Green Heaven Web once again started to explain in a patient voice.
"What greedy bastards!" David sighed and muttered. He could witness the technique only three tis, or if he wanted to watch again, he would have to pay once more.
"Who needs demonstrations anyway!" David scoffed while rolling his eyes. It appeared he wasn't the only one chasing money.
However, he wasn't completely dissatisfied, as he still got the complete manual. If he had the ability, he could cultivate the technique on his own.
Once he went through his recent experience once again, his eyes flashed.
He had finally understood how this business model worked.
Cultivating such a grand technique without proper guidance was stupid and ti-consuming.
Anyway! David shook his head and went through the technique's content.
"With Nine Suns, I protect the nine directions..."
David read the text out loud. The wording looked deliberate and vague, not completely conveying the creator's thoughts.
But at this ti, David felt the tattoo on his neck quiver as if resonating with his words.
Imdiately, a cool sensation flooded his mind, and the words which were previously incomprehensible beca easy to understand.
In a matter of minutes, David had a basic understanding of the technique.
In reality, David released a breath of foul air and summoned his status report to look at the changes.

Indeed, a new technique had appeared on his status report, making David incredibly excited. Although David had a rough understanding of it, he still couldn't begin cultivating as he needed to collect so materials first.
Suddenly, a window seed to have blown open in the huge hall.
Sitting so distance away from David, Lucas finally opened his eyes after months.
Seeing David looking in his direction, Lucas got up from his sitting position and nodded.
David also smiled in acknowledgnt and didn't say anything.
Ti passed, and it was the morning of the next day.
David's bank had finally received its first custor after a long period of ti.
