The Strongest Businessman

"But, first, I'll break through to the 10th level." Dylan quickly collected the 100 or so Deca-Stones that were piled up and simultaneously crushed them.

*Zwooosh*

The pure energy from the Deca-Stones were immediately absorbed by the energy vortex within Dylan's Supreme Core and was transmuted into his own spirit energy! The moment he fully absorbed it, the vortex swelled as it entered a tipping point and increased in size by two times its' original size.

*Zwooosh*

Following that, the energy vortex within his body send out spirit energy to every ounce of his body! As soon as it entered his Spirit Veins, it immediately opened five more!

*Clank* *Clank* *Clank* Clank* *Clank*

With the newly opened spirit veins, Dylan had a total of 100 spirit veins unlocked within him! With that, Dylan had successfully entered the initial stage of the 10th level of the Spirit Veins Realm!

"Hahaha! Finally back at the 10th level! I never expected that some of the tribulation lightning to invade my body! It was a good thing though!" Dylan joyously said. He initially thought that it would take him a month more to successfully return to his original state but who would have thought that the Heavenly Tribulation was also a blessing in disguise that gave him enough energy to break through!

After celebrating for a brief moment, Dylan opened his eyes and grabbed the silver stone which emitted starlight!

"It's time to absorb this Millenial Stone! I wonder what function it would give me!" Dylan quickly crushed the Millenial Stone in order to discover it's function!

"Amazing!" Dylan stared in awe when he saw the stone turn into tangible threads of pure energy!

"It's an energy stone like the Primal Stone and the Deca-Stone but neither of which was able to create such a scene!" Dylan dumbfoundedly thought!

Normally, when a Primal Stone and Deca-Stone, the energy within will enter the hand where it was crushed and permeate into the body. However, the Millenial Stone differs for it contained an energy so pure that it was virtually tangible!

"Each thread... is equal to 10 Deca-Stones?!" The threads multiplied from being 10 to 100 and continued to reproduce until it reached number of a shocking 1000. The threads overlapped with one another and covered Dylan's entire body! It wrapped Dylan's entire body like a cocoon!

Dylan could not believe his eyes as he witnessed such a miraculous thing! If he were to convert 1 Millenial Stone then it would be worth 10000 Deca-Stones!!!

Little did he know, that the threads also has covered his entire body! His real self and mental persona were now wrapped within a cocoon of energy threads!

After a few minutes, the cocoon-like object which surrounded Dylan slowly disappeared and showed a handsome young man. The energy threads seemed as though they were being absorbed by the skin of the young man. This strange phenomenon occurred in both the real world and Dylan's mindscape!

Within Dylan's Supreme Core, a massive vortex of pure energy that was at least 1000 times bigger than before was intensely rotating and was being​ constantly converted by the Supreme Core! Subsequently, Dylan's cultivation skyrocketed!!

From Initial 10th level straight to Pinnacle 10th level!!

If Dylan were to calculate how much Deca-Stones, he would need to cross the Initial to Intermediate, it would be 1000! To Intermediate to high would be one thousand six hundred stones! Two thousand five hundred stones to reach the peak! Lastly, 4900 Deca-Stones to reach Pinnacle from the Peak stage!!

A total of 10,000 Deca-Stones!!!

"This-this... Hahahaha, amazing!! If I am able to get just 30 of these stones, I would be able to fly across the entire Ancestral Veins Realm!!" Dylan calculated with madness!! His eyes shone while envisioned a route for him to be able to quickly gain the 30 Millenial Stones.

But, amidst his calculations, he realized an essential factor to get the amount of Millenial Stones he needed.

Customers!

To acquire such an amount of Millenial Stones, he would need to serve at least 1,000 customers a day! By his current means of serving customers and planning, it would still take three whole weeks to attain such a number. After 3 weeks, would he only be able to serve 1000 customers a day!

To get the necessary amount, he would need about 30 days or an entire month!

If he wanted to gain more customers in day to day basis, he would need to change his plans. But before this notion took over, Dylan stopped himself by pausing his mind for a second and practiced deep-breathing techniques to calm himself down.

"I can't let greed get the best of me. I need to calm down I need to stick to my plan or else, the outcome of everything will be the same as replaying what happened in Soaring Cloud City!" Dylan reminded himself to not repeat the same mistakes he did in the past.

After a short breather, Dylan collected his thoughts and calmed his heart. "So, with my plan, it would still take me two months, huh? Just like what I had predicted earlier. To cross the Awakened Spirit Realm and enter the Origin Realm, I would need 50 Millenial Stones which would take me another month because by our third month of service, my store would be able to entertain about 1,500- 1,700 customers per day."

"Three months to reach Origin Realm from Pinnacle of Spirit Veins? Hehehe, even the geniuses in the Mystical Clouds Country can't hope to compare with this speed." Dylan confidently said.

If anyone were to here Dylan's words right now, they would agree without hesitation because it was virtually impossible!

Usually, once a person reaches the pinnacle of the Spirit Veins Realm, he/she would be able to absorb spirit energy directly. Once a person reaches the Awakened Spirit Realm, one would need to daily absorb spirit energy the convert it into your own power. The accumulated power would then be compressed in order to advance in strength. This refined energy is also used to strengthen and develop one's Avatar. It was much more when one crosses the Origin Realm.

A person needs to refine his spirit energy tens of times before converting it to Origin Energy. To reach the Origin Realm, a person needs to convert his energy to at least 2% to reach Initial 16th level Origin Transmutation Realm!

This type of routine would typically need 200-250 years for a normal cultivator with sufficient talent can do. A once in a hundred year genius would only take 50 years to do so. A thousand year genius would take about 10 years. However, an extremely rare ten thousand year genius would only take 1 year to do so!

But Dylan's​ speed only requires him a quarter of the rare ten thousand years genius! Dylan's talent would fall to an even more terrifying category of talent which was the hundred thousand years genius!

"Putting that aside, the Millenial Stone is an extremely miraculous stone! Hehehe, this only makes me anticipate the next function of the mansion even more!" Dylan's eyes sparkled with excitement as he thought of this.

Suddenly, he heard a knocking sound.

*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*

"Sir Dylan!"

"Sir Dylan!"

...

"Did something happen?" Dylan heard different voices outside while they were continuously knocking on the door. The voices contained urgency and worry which prompted Dylan to exit his mindscape quickly.

He opened his eyes and stood up. He moved to the door and opened it. "What's the matter? Did something happen?"

"Ahhh!" The moment he opened the door, the girls that were suspended near the door feel forwards and screamed.

"Ehh?" Dylan was shocked but he was unable to react fast enough to dodge the girls who were falling towards him. He also fell backwards with his back laid flat on the ground

*Thud*

"Ouch!" Dylan let out a moan as waves of girls fell on top of each other.

"It hurts like hell!" Dylan suffered the full brunt of the combined weight of the girls but amidst that pain, Dylan could also feel heaven-like softness from his right arm, chest and left arm.

'Is this?!' Dylan suddenly realized what type of scenario he was in. 'A typical shoujo scenario where the girl falls on top of the MC?!'

At that moment, Dylan's otaku side emulated the entire scenario which made him completely picture what was currently happening to him!

'No, I mustn't.' Dylan controlled himself from his otaku desires as he shook his head and calmed himself down.

"Waaah!" Veronica, a black-haired 17 year old white-skinned beauty cried.

"Sir Dylan, we were so worried about you just now! Waaah!" Mary's tears flooded Dylan's sleeves.

"We thought something bad might have happened to you!" Beverly sobbed after saying those words.

The other girls on top of Dylan and the ones standing started crying abruptly!

"Why are you all crying? " Dylan found it baffling that they cried without even saying any reason.

"It's because we felt successive explosions of energy within your room! We thought someone might have launched an attack and tried to assassinate you! That's why we rushed to your room to check on you, sir." Larry explained briefly.

"Oh." Dylan then realized that he had unknowingly caused too much of a disturbance. Due to his excitement, he forgot that when breaking through his cultivation technique would affect his surroundings. So, the moment he advanced his level, he made his employees worry again.

"There, there. Stop crying, girls. Can't you see that I'm alright? I am so sorry to alarm you again. I unknowingly brokethrough and as I have told you, my technique attracts too much attention. That's why those explosion of energy occurred." Dylan really felt guilty. When he found out about the tribulation lightning remnants and the Millenial Stone, he completely forgot about the conspicuousness of the Cosmic God Manual.

"You're really not hurt?" Marie, who was one of the girls who was standing, asked timidly.

"Really." Dylan smiled.
