Chapter 132: Taking the bank to the top
However, David stood still like a pillar, not being affected a single bit by the raging wind that struck his body.
Some distance away, Borrito was forced to close his eyes as it was too much for him. If it weren\'t for Mary\'s strong grip, he would have flown away because of the strong wind.
Mary looked at this scene with a strange gleam in her eyes.
Under David\'s command, the Allheaven canvas shrunk to a pin-sized ball, instantly crushing the shadow stalker to nothingness.
Immediately afterwards, a golden light descended from the sky, enveloping David\'s body under its gentle glow.
Unknown runic symbols appeared one after the other and entered David\'s spiritual space, merging or, to be more specific, entering his Crystallization of Life.
David closed his eyes and floated silently in the air, enjoying the process with a relaxed smile on his face.
He felt unprecedentedly relaxed under the golden light.
The process continued for half an hour before stopping.
Everything returned to normal; the golden light and raging wind disappeared as if they had never existed in the first place.
All of this felt like one surreal dream to David.
"Congratulations, darling! The Light of Laws lasted for so long; your Crystallization of Life would definitely have evolved to a higher grade."
At this time, Mary silently floated beside him and spoke with an innocent smile on her face.
Her eyes seemed to flash with complicated emotions, not understanding anything that had happened a moment ago.
Cultivators with higher-grade Crystallizations of Life would rarely receive an upgrade.
It was difficult to evolve the Crystallization of Life; its grade was high enough.
When she had broken through, the Light of Laws had ceremonially appeared and disappeared in the next second.
But David bathed under the light for so long, which was clearly very unexpected for her.
In the end, she sighed. This time she was not going to care about these pointless things and would focus on living her life to the fullest.
Hearing her words, David raised his eyebrows and suddenly smiled.
Yeah, she was right; his Crystallization of Life had evolved, but only one of them.
David ignored Mary for a moment and looked at the status report with interest.

Remark: Congratulations on your successful breakthrough, but please don\'t forget about the bank.]
Blink had gone through a huge transformation, significantly becoming better in every aspect.
While thinking, David blinked out of existence.
When he reappeared again, it was twenty meters away from his original position.
David didn\'t stop; he continued to dance through the air, appearing and disappearing randomly.
Not following the earlier set limit where he could travel a fixed distance of ten meters.
This fact alone was worth every single damn effort.
The added distance was just a bonus.
As it was a Crystallization of Life, the consumption was minimal.
If he wanted, he could blink for twenty-four hours straight without breaking a sweat.
And other than that, his spiritual space had also doubled in size. This was something that left him greatly surprised.
He had never heard about spiritual space growing at the Golden Core Realm.
Finally, his lifespan had also doubled.
While David was busy thinking, time continued to pass, and soon it was nighttime with the sun setting below the horizon.
The moon had silently taken its place, completely spotless like a serene lake.
David shifted his eyes away from the moon and looked at Mary standing some distance away from him, talking with Borrito in a hushed voice.
The silvery radiance seemed to make her look even more beautiful, like a celestial goddess who had descended on Earth to wipe all the filth away.
David sighed, his eyes filled with profound emotions.
From struggling a few years ago to reaching a point where few could only dream of in their sleep.
Such a change had happened in a matter of years.
You never knew what life had in store for you.
"Let\'s go back, guys." After saying those words, he didn\'t wait for Mary\'s reaction and started to move.
Just as he had taken the first step, he suddenly stopped and looked at the shiny window that had suddenly appeared in front of him with surprise as well as a little nostalgia.
[Mission 1: Make the Bank of Eternal Origin the richest organization in this world.
Status: Accept/Reject
Time limit: hundred years
Reward: Trueorigin catalyst (Note: can evolve any Crystallization of Life by one major rank)
Note: This is a chain mission.]
David didn\'t even bother thinking and calmly accepted the mission as it aligned with one of his objectives.
Moreover, the reward was something that he was also interested in.
"Trueorigin catalyst?" He muttered in a low voice while looking at Mary out of the corner of his eye, hoping that she was not far away from him.
And as he was expecting, after hearing his words, her pupils seemed to widen for a moment.
"Indeed, the Trueorigin catalyst was a real deal," David thought in his head and once again started to move.
Of course, his destination was still the settlement in the Bloodmoon forest.
This time his speed was a lot faster than before, and barely in a moment, he instantly arrived at the top of the settlement and dived straight down towards his room.
Not long after, Mary also caught up with him.

David sat in the room with his eyes closed. At this time, his consciousness was inside the half-closed eyes in his palm, exploring the new features that had unlocked after he broke through to the Golden Core Realm.
[Welcome, esteemed cultivator, Congratulations on your successful breakthrough]
[Your access level has been upgraded to level 3. Continue to work hard in the future]
[Challenge Function has been activated. You can now challenge the cultivators ranked in the Golden Core Realm]
After hearing the explanation, David nodded his head. However, he was not a battle maniac; therefore, he decided to ignore this particular function for now.
His eyes suddenly landed on the mountains of spirit stones lying on the ground.
Instantly, a smile appeared on David\'s face.
If he wanted, he could literally swim in the money, but he wasn\'t childish enough to do that.
Wrong! In the next moment, David jumped toward the mountain and started to roll over the spirit stones.
While David was enjoying himself, the Green Heaven Web voice sounded again.
[Warning! Only ten percent of the goods are left in the inventory.]
"Completely sold again?" David muttered in disbelief.
And in the next moment, he got up and bought over ninety-nine thousand cups of coffee from the bank\'s shop.
Immediately, all of them appeared inside the dark space.
"Place all of them in the inventory," David commanded in a low voice.
A moment after his words, all the cups disappeared.
Now David was once again free to do whatever he wanted to do.
If David wanted, he could flood the market with hundreds of thousands of coffee cups and completely take over the industry, but it would not be worth it.
Moreover, it would attract severe backlash from the already established organizations like Bald Monk Wine Shop.
David refused to believe that there wasn\'t any cultivator with a Crystallization of Life that could easily track him down.
For now, David had to lay low and bide his time.
He still didn\'t understand the world of Green Heaven completely. He had to be careful and not offend some old monster unknowingly.
It would be too pathetic if some old monster suddenly appeared and slapped him out of existence.
David suddenly shivered while imagining such a thing.
So slowly, everything had to be done step by step.
While David was thinking, he suddenly received a message.
[Senior! Congratulations on your successful breakthrough] Sender - Bearer of Azure Light.
"Oh! This fella." David exclaimed. He had almost forgotten about this guy.
In the next moment, he politely thanked the guy for his kind words and left the Green Heaven Web.

[Thank you] Sender - Zenith Immortal
Bearer of Azure Light, Zefyr looked at the short message that David sent him and smiled.
"I wonder what his rank is on the Golden Core list," Zefyr muttered while taking a bite of the extremely orange fruit in his hand.
Suddenly seeing David move out of the ranking, he was also pumped and wanted to break through as soon as possible.
