With such a huge amount of wealth, it's best to sell these things and convert them into cash as soon as possible.
"Let's go, let's leave the secret realm first and return to Qiulong Star. Once we're settled, we can slowly tally up and distribute the spoils from this trip."
Lu Ming made a decision.
Without further delay, the four entered their respective spaceships.
They flew towards the edge of this star field.
……
Half a month later, on the planet Qiulong, in the private palace of planetary lord Heya.
A powerful barrier rose up, completely isolating the inside from the outside.
In the center of the main hall, various treasures radiating powerful energy fluctuations or strange luster were piled up like mountains, almost filling half of the hall.
The hall was filled with a dazzling array of rare materials, including Ink Meteorite Mother Gold Ore, Void Crystal, Nine-Aperture Poison Lotus, Earth Fire Core, Phantom Demon Dove Feathers, and many other precious materials, all radiating a brilliant glow that illuminated the entire hall.
Looking at this "treasure mountain" before him, even though he was a veteran domain lord with extensive experience, he couldn't help but feel a little breathless.
"The value of these black meteorite mother gold alone is immeasurable. Add to that all these other treasures... to be honest, in all my years of life, this is the first time I've ever seen so many precious treasures gathered together at once."
Carlos, Manji, and Shadowsocks all beamed with the joy of their achievement.
Chapter 19 Preparing to Farm Money
Manji scratched his head and said.
“Heya, the items are good, but how to divide them is a big problem. These items are diverse and vary greatly in value, some of them are even rare and priceless. If the four of us divide them by piece, we might argue for years and still not be able to divide them evenly, which would only damage our harmony.”
Carlos nodded in agreement.
Yingsuo succinctly replied, "Cash would be best."
Lu Ming looked at Heya and said, "Heya, we've discussed it. We'd like to ask you for a favor. You can pack all these treasures together and entrust the Cosmic Galaxy Bank to conduct a professional appraisal and auction. They have extensive channels and can maximize the value of these treasures. After everything is converted into Chaos Units, we can then distribute them according to their total value. This is the fairest and most hassle-free way."
Entrusting all the treasures to the reputable Cosmic Galaxy Bank is undoubtedly the safest and most professional choice.
Having Heya, the lord of the Dragon Star and someone who deals more with banks, handle things on their behalf would save them a lot of trouble.
Heya agreed without much hesitation.
"Haha, no problem! Leave it to me! This is easy to handle. I guarantee a good price!"
Time flies, and a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
Throughout the year, with Heya's full efforts and the powerful support of the Cosmic Galaxy Bank, the precious treasures from the secret realm were sent in batches to top auctions in the Qianwu Cosmic Kingdom and other prosperous places in the human territory.
Each auction caused quite a stir, especially the astonishing quantity of Ink Meteorite Mother Gold, which attracted many weapon-refining masters and large forces to compete for it.
On this day, Heya once again invited Lu Ming, Carlos, Manji, and Yingsuo to his main hall.
Unlike a year ago when the hall was filled with treasures, now only a virtual screen emitting a soft light floated in the center of the hall, displaying a long string of heart-pounding numbers.
"Everyone."
Heya wore an uncontrollable smile, and his voice rose slightly with excitement.
"All the treasures have been sold out, and the final net profit after deducting bank commissions has been calculated."
The four people's eyes immediately focused on the bold, enlarged number at the bottom of the screen.
Total Profit: 269 Mixed Units
Despite being mentally prepared, a collective gasp still filled the hall when the number was actually displayed before their eyes.
Mixed unit!
This is a commonly used unit of currency for large transactions between immortal gods!
One Primal Unit is equivalent to one trillion Cosmic Coins!
269 Mixed Yuan Units means that this is a terrifying fortune of up to 269 trillion Cosmic Coins!
Many ordinary immortal gods may only have a few dozen or even a few hundred Hunyuan units in their entire fortune.
The gains they made on this expedition have surpassed the total wealth of many immortals!
"269 Mixed Units..."
Manji muttered to himself, pinching himself hard to make sure he wasn't dreaming.
Carlos and Shadow Shuttle were also stunned, their eyes wide with disbelief at the astronomical figure.
Although Lu Ming was in the highest mental state, his heart still beat faster than usual.
After the initial excitement, the most crucial step is the distribution of profits.
Heya looked at the four people and said solemnly, "The profits are here. How to distribute them still needs to be discussed and decided by you all."
The hall fell silent.
How to fairly distribute these 269 mixed units is indeed a problem.
After a moment of silence, Carlos spoke first. He looked at Lu Ming and said sincerely, "Without Old Lu, we would never have achieved such a great harvest during this exploration of the secret realm. Not to mention the final Inkfall Mother Gold Mountain, without Old Lu's Lightning Vine, we would have been powerless to mine it; just considering the encounter with the three Domain Lord-level ferocious beasts, even if Old Lu had easily dealt with them all by himself, we wouldn't have been able to obtain any treasures, and it would have been uncertain whether we could have escaped unscathed. In terms of merit, Old Lu should be ranked first! I propose that Old Lu take 40%!"
Although Manji was rough and boorish, he was also reasonable and immediately agreed.
"Carlos is right! If it weren't for Lao Lu, we probably wouldn't even have a hot bowl of soup! I agree, Lao Lu takes 40%, and the rest we four will split!"
Yingsuo succinctly replied, "Agreed."
Lu Ming pondered for a moment.
Forty percent is 107.6 mixed units, which is an absolute fortune.
But after thinking for a moment, he spoke.
“I appreciate your kind intentions. Forty percent is too much. We are a team, and the harvest cannot be divided like that. How about this, I will take thirty percent, and you can split the remaining seventy percent equally.”
Lu Ming voluntarily reduced his share mainly because he still managed to gain a life fruit tree.
Its value is also very high.
It's not unreasonable to say it's worth more than ten Hunyuan.
It wasn't that he didn't want to take it out; the main thing was that he planned to offer the tree as a sacrifice to return it.
Seeing Lu Ming's resolute attitude, the group looked at each other and finally nodded in agreement.
"Let's do as Lao Lu says!"
Thus, the allocation plan was finalized.
Lu Ming: 30%, 80.7 mixed units.
Carlos, Manji, Shadowsor, and Heya divided the remaining amount equally.
Through Heya's actions, the vast wealth was transferred to each individual's Cosmic Galaxy Bank account.
Looking at the long string of zeros in their accounts, everyone's face broke into a genuine smile. This exploration of the secret realm had come to a successful conclusion!
Each of them instantly became one of the richest people in the universe.
Domain Lord level, who could come up with so much money!
Hahahahaha!
After the wealth was distributed, everyone was satisfied.
This sudden windfall requires time to digest and plan.
With so much money, their strength will increase significantly.
Carlos, Manji, and Shadow Shuttle took their leave one after another, as they needed to return to their own territories to make good use of these resources to enhance their strength or manage their influence.
Heya was even more eager to develop his Qilong Star.
Lu Ming bid farewell to everyone and boarded his Azure Bird spaceship, leaving Qiulong Star.
The spaceship sailed smoothly through the dark universe. Lu Ming sat alone in the control room, his mind focused on his body.
His attention wasn't entirely focused on the huge sum of 80.7 Mixed Yuan Units that had just arrived in his account, but rather on the system panel in his mind.
[Sacrifice Return System]
Host: Lu Ming
Realm: Ninth Rank of Domain Lord
Available sacrifice attempts: 2 (automatically replenished 1 attempt per year)
Items already sacrificed: body, lightning vines...
[Sacrifice] [Warehouse] (Empty)
"It really can be accumulated."
Lu Ming looked at the "Available Sacrifice Times" display showing 2 and a knowing smile appeared on his lips.
During the year he waited for the auction results, he deliberately did not use the newly refreshed sacrifice opportunity, just to verify whether the annual sacrifice opportunity could be stacked.
It seems that the system does not limit the number of attempts, which is good news.
"However, in this world of Devouring Stars where time is often measured in tens of thousands of years or epochs, whether it is refreshed once a year or not is not actually that significant."
Lu Ming quickly calmed down.
For powerful individuals who often secluded themselves for hundreds or even thousands of years, a year is indeed a short time.
"Two chances...perfect."
A glint of light flashed in Lu Ming's eyes.
"The Life Fruit Tree we harvested before will inevitably be used once, and the next time..."
He already had a plan in mind.
The Tree of Life is of immeasurable value, and as a sacrifice, the rewards returned will be astonishing. This will be the focus of his first sacrifice.
As for the last time, he planned to sacrifice his own spaceship.
Regardless of the final outcome, he will sell it, and then add all his current wealth, plus the wealth from the sale of the spaceship.
Buy, sacrifice, and resell!
