Transmigrated as Investment Banker in Cultivation world

Chapter 182: Moving out

David, someone who hated wasting time, immediately purchased two void stones from the web, each costing one thousand-mid grade spirit stones.

His hands were shaking when David settled the payment; this might be the first time he had spent such a large amount of money.

However, what needed to be done must be done. At this thought, David's eyes turned resolute, and he no longer hesitated.

In few minutes, the transaction was complete and the stones appeared in his hand.

"Here are your two void stones. Do you need anything else?" He calmly said and handed the two milky white stones that were flickering with ethereal white light, as if the world around them was melting.

Mary was shocked looking at the two white stones in her hands. She clearly knew how expensive these two stones were, which is why she hadn't taken David seriously when he said he would arrange the void stones.

But after some time, a smile appeared on her face. David was so capable, that's why she liked him in the first place.

While she placed one of the void stones in the center of the formation, it immediately lit up, and a low hum reverberated throughout the building.

David's eyes also lit up at this scene; half of the work was done. Next, it was time to move to the nearest city and set up the same formation there.

Mary didn't immediately get up but started to inspect the formation closely.

"Hmmm! Someone needs to monitor the formation for some time."

Teleportation formations needed some time to stabilize, during which the formation master had to keep an eye on them in case the formation became unstable.

Hearing Mary's worries, David frowned. He wanted to quickly rush toward the nearest city, but now he couldn't because of this.

Mary seemed to have guessed his thoughts and smiled.

"Don't worry, the work is not much, even Borrito can do it. It's just that we need someone to guard this place," she patiently explained with a smile on her face.

Hearing her words, David nodded and hurriedly called Borrito and the Origin Guard outside the city.

He wasn't worried about leaving the bank defenseless; there were still some reliable people like Ruby inside the bank. However, his greatest assurance was the fact that fighting inside the city was strictly prohibited.

So, as a result of all these factors, he wasn't worried too much.

It didn't take long for Borrito and the Origin Guard to arrive.

"Father! What is this place?" Borrito immediately asked while surveying the building, as if he owned the place.

His small, petite figure quickly moved through the large hall, and a trail of invisible smoke had filled the air.

David didn't pay attention to the arrogant duckling; his eyes were on the gigantic Origin Guard, who quietly stood beside the entrance like a loyal guard.

After David's breakthrough, the Origin Guard's cultivation had also naturally increased by one major realm; now the guard was at the Body Integration stage.

Its outward appearance had also changed; numerous runes glistening with terrifying power had appeared all over the guard's glossy black armor, and the runes were like snakes that occasionally twisted and turned.

The air seemed to have become a little oppressive due to the guard's presence. Feeling the undulating wave of pressure hitting his face made David frown.

The difference between the Void Refining Realm and the Body Integration realm was really huge. If it wasn't for the fact that the pressure wasn't directed at him, David might not have been able to stand still.

Witnessing the appearance of the Origin Guard, Mary's eyes shook. No matter how many times she looked at the guard, the shock in her didn't disappear.

Just some years ago, the Origin Guard was at the Golden Core stage, but now it was at a realm that Mary could only look up to for now.

The guard gave her a terrifying feeling, as if it wanted, it could end her life in a single breath. Even with her hundreds of thousands of years of experience, she would not be able to survive.

In front of absolute power, experience could amount to nothing.

Mary took a deep breath and focused on her task; there was no need to worry about anything as long as David was here, the guard wouldn't attack, and this was something she was completely sure of after years of observation.

Soon, she was almost done with the formation. At this time, she decided to call Borrito.

"You keep an eye on this formation all the time and don't let it destabilize."

Borrito hurriedly nodded, and he was also looking forward to seeing this formation in action.

After giving a couple more instructions to Borrito, David left with Mary closely following behind him.

They flew through the blue skies of the Green Heaven World at a leisurely pace.

David's expression was calm and natural, as if he was taking a stroll. After achieving the Void Refining Realm, flying was as easy as breathing.

Even at this leisurely pace, he covered tens of kilometers in minutes. If he had wanted, he could have increased his speed by a large margin, but he didn't, as Mary would be unable to keep up with him.

"How is his speed so fast?" Mary suddenly frowned and thought with puzzlement.

Mary was already having a hard time keeping up with David's leisurely pace. If it continued like this, she would be left far behind.

Without even turning his head back, David noticed her predicament and decided to slow down.

He couldn't help but sigh, seeing her condition. Among the three old monstrosities, her cultivation seemed to be the worst.

Seeing him slow down, Mary's expression eased, and a tender look appeared in her eyes.

'Although darling might not show it, he really cares for me in his heart,' Mary joyously thought, with sweetness rising in her heart.

David seemed to be oblivious to her thoughts and was busy minding his own business.

The journey was bound to take some time. The Green Heaven World was unimaginably huge, and as a result, the distance between each city was even more exaggerated. It might take months of continuous journeying for a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator to reach the nearest city. If the plight of a Nascent Soul cultivator was like this, there was no need to say anything about the lower-realm cultivators.

Even when some Nascent cultivators ventured out, there was still the threat of constant death, as terrifying monsters roamed the land.

It wasn't rare to encounter monstrous beasts at Void Refining Realm and above.

Such a barrier had become a huge obstacle in the free movement of people, maybe this was also the reason behind the existence of the Green Heaven web.

David's head was filled with countless thoughts while moving, and suddenly, he remembered something and loudly shouted.

"Do you know the sound transmission techniques?" His voice, filled with the terrifying energy of a cultivator at the Void Refining Realm, caused the air around him to vibrate.

Mary didn't speak but only nodded her head, and in the next moment, a voice sounded in his head.

"I know it; do you want to learn it?" David immediately smiled and nodded at her words.

Seeing him nod, Mary also smiled and flicked her hands.

Immediately, a bunch of unknown information appeared in his head.

After taking a look, David realized it was a sound transmission technique, and without wasting any time, he immediately learned it with an excited expression on his face.

"Hey! Mary, what do you know about the Immortal Cultivators?" David decided to ask. These days, he was starting to become more and more vigilant, as he felt the Green Heaven Saint would appear at any time to settle the grudge.

"Why are you even asking? Although your strength has increased, you're still far from the Immortal Realm."

David immediately became excited; this wasn't the first time he had asked her something like this, but all the time in the past, she had remained tight-lipped. She was in the mood to talk, and that's why she spoke so much.

And indeed, David was right. After witnessing David's strength just now, Mary was impressed.

However, before he could continue the conversation, he was hit by a notification.

Hesitating for a moment, as he was in the middle of the conversation, David decided to take a look.

[Regretfully! You lost one of your clients today. However, the Bank of Eternal Origin can never suffer a loss.

Even if he died, the client will have to pay back somehow, therefore his soul was captured. You now have the following options, keep in mind that you can only choose one.

1 - Extract the Client's Crystallion of Life (The Supreme Deducer, Grade - Heavenly King)

2 - Extract Loc's memories from his birth till his death.

3 - Any item that the client owned in his lifetime.

4 - Do Nothing, let the compound interest do its thing and decide again when the Client dies in his next life.

Please note that capturing the soul and imprisoning it requires a large amount of mana, and you only have five hours left to make a choice.]

David's eyes narrowed as he carefully considered the options presented to him. This was a delicate situation that required his full attention, and he could not afford to make a hasty decision.
