Transmigrated as Investment Banker in Cultivation world

Chapter 196: New project

David instantly knew how to use his new Crystallisation of Life.

The use of his new ability was simple - it allowed him to split his thoughts into two, enabling him to do two completely different things at the same time.

David was satisfied with his new ability, and anyway, he wasn't in a rush to Breakthrough.

Immediately, he used the ability and his thoughts got split into two, one focusing inside his Spiritual space while the other looked for the strongest person in the city.

Once more, under David's eyes, the world around him turned pitch black like a night sky, with several stars twinkling, making the scene look eerie but absolutely beautiful at the same time.

All of these stars represented strong experts in the Nightblade city. Most of the stars were similar to footballs; however, there were two which were as big as small cars.

One was slightly bigger and the other a little smaller in comparison.

The small one was at the center of the city; this star probably represented the leader of the Truth Seeker Formation organization.

The next moment, he focused on the bigger star, and his gaze unconsciously landed on the building of the bank.

This surprised David a little bit.

"Wait a minute..." Suddenly, he stopped and looked at the small sweet shop beside the bank.

And immediately, his eyes flashed with understanding.

So the strongest expert in the Nightblade city wasn't from the Truth Seeker Formation organization but from this small sweet shop.

This development left him a little intrigued.

......

It was snowing heavily today. The skies of Green Heaven World were completely covered with a thick patch of clouds, not letting even a sunray pass through.

A gloomy atmosphere had started to grip the world of Green Heaven as if the world was in great pain. This was especially felt by cultivators who were very close to the world limits.

A heavy feeling enveloped their hearts; it was like a giant boulder weighing down and gripping their hearts tightly. Of course, the low-level cultivators were completely unaware - they continued to live their daily lives as usual, fighting, killing, finding pleasure in sensual activities.

Thousands of kilometers, or maybe tens of thousands of kilometers below the land surface.

Contrary to what one might think, this place was filled with complete and absolute darkness, like the deepest darkness in one's heart - absolutely frightening and cold.

Suddenly, the darkness ripped and two figures appeared, one slender and the other ferocious and charismatic.

One was the world-renowned Divine Might Heavenly Emperor, and the other was a figure of unknown origin.

The eyes of both figures were filled with a hint of dread, which was quite surprising and even frightening to some extent. These two figures stood at the absolute peak of the world; what could even make them feel afraid?

"Why is it decaying so fast?" Divine Might Heavenly Emperor spoke with a hint of confusion in his voice.

Although the other figure didn't say anything, it was clear from the look on her face that she too was moved by the changes.

After the world source was taken away by the Green Heaven saint, the world didn't immediately collapse but was able to sustain itself, relying on the remnant aura left behind by the core. But now slowly it was also disappearing.

And if the remnant aura completely disappeared, the first to collapse would be the Manifestation of Transcendental rules. This would be something that the world would not be able to bear, as the Green Heaven Web was the life breath of the world - if it collapsed, the world would also collapse with it.

"You, woman, think of something. I am not good at these things," Divine Might Heavenly Emperor spoke with a resigned look on his face.

Most of his expertise was in the field of fighting. He just knew one or two things about everything, but he could do nothing to solve the problem in front of him.

So he could only rely on the only Grade Six Alchemist in the whole world, the head of the Alchemist Organization, the most beautiful... the most graceful, embodiment of elegance herself.

Natalia Nox Raven!

Divine rolled his eyes and looked at the woman beside him.

Natalia Nox Raven seemed to have understood Divine Might Heavenly Emperor's thoughts and coldly snorted.

Just as she was about to make fun of the emperor, suddenly she sensed something. Not just her - even the emperor seemed to have sensed the same thing. Both of them turned their heads to look at one particular mountain covered with a thick sheet of snow.

.....

On top of a mountain, the space suddenly seemed to contract and ripple like the surface of water.

The monsters who were mindlessly roaming here and there seemed to have gotten afraid and started fleeing in every direction with their tails tucked between their legs.

Those who dared to get close to the disturbance were turned into clouds of smoke and disappeared.

Slowly, a white portal filled with otherworldly energies opened, and two beautiful girls with cold expressions on their exquisite faces walked out. Behind these two women was a confident young man.

"Is this the legendary Green Heaven World?"

"Legend has it, the world is named after our Ancestor Green Heaven?" The girl dressed in a fiery orange gown spoke with a clear look of disdain in her eyes. When she said these words, she looked at the blonde-haired girl beside her with a subtle but provocative look.

From what the girl dressed in the fiery gown had gathered, the blonde girl was from a lower world with extremely poor qualifications.

However, the blonde girl, dressed in simple clothes, didn't react to her words as if she hadn't heard them at all.

The confident young man noticed the actions of the girl in the fiery red gown and frowned.

"Junior sister! Behave yourself. Don't always try to provoke Junior sister Emilia," the young man warned in a stern tone.

While Arthur was speaking, he secretly glanced at Emilia's figure. Seeing her expression remained unchanged, he let out a breath filled with relief.

Emilia's blonde hair danced wildly in the air; her green eyes seemed to be filled with mysterious emotions.

"According to the information provided by the mission hall, this world is already on the path of destruction and might collapse in fifty years. We have to move fast," Arthur spoke with a hint of solemnity in his tone. This time the mission was extremely crucial and important; he couldn't afford to dilly-dally.

Although fifty years might be an extremely long time for mortals, for cultivators like them, it was nothing more than the blink of an eye.

"Let's find the person responsible for causing the disturbance, then we will talk about anything else," Arthur said those words, and in the next moment, his body seemed to glow with intense fiery light followed by a loud explosion, and his body disappeared.

Boom!

The mountain on which the three of them were standing a moment ago also disappeared, collapsing inward in a giant explosion with snow and other frozen particles flying in every direction.

.....

"Small Sun village." Arthur looked at the signboard hanging in front of the entrance and muttered out loud.

The Small Sun village barely seemed to have changed in the past few years; it was still as lively as ever with dozens of people coming and going. None of them seemed to notice the presence of the three otherworldly individuals.

"Emilia, start moving. We need to find the source of disturbance fast," Arthur commanded in the gentlest way possible.

Emilia nodded her head wordlessly, ignoring the puzzled look in the eyes of the girl dressed in the fiery gown.

.....

"So how is the development going?"

David placed a cup of coffee in front of Sebastian and asked with an expectant look on his face.

He was already back in the Bank of Eternal Origin; for now, he had refrained himself from investigating the sweet shop any further.

Before leaving for the Crouching Tiger city, he had asked Sebastian to work on a new project.

According to David, this new project could become another source of income for him. Find more to read at M V L

Hearing David's inquiry, a look of contemplation appeared on Sebastian's face, as if he was trying to gather his thoughts.

In these few years, Sebastian had barely changed; time seemed to have left no mark on him. If it wasn't for his Peak Nascent Soul realm cultivation, David would have started doubting if something was wrong with him.

David waited for an answer, and his thoughts drifted somewhere else, thinking about pointless things.

'Sebastian was an old monstrosity, and he still can't control his facial expressions,' David wondered why.

According to him, old monstrosities like Sebastian and Mary should have stone-cold facial expressions, barely showing any emotions.

But on the contrary, they liked to show their emotions very beautifully and vividly.

While David was lost in thought, Sebastian cleared his thoughts and started to eloquently speak.
