Cosmic Trading System

Lin Yun had researched the situation on Earth via the Cosmic Trading System.

Some lifeforms emitted a lot of Spiritual Energy, which generally happens under three circumstances.

First, these lifeforms were very powerful, with strong souls.

Strong souls meant powerful Spiritual Energy, and they naturally emitted more Spiritual Energy than others.

Second, these lifeforms had great potential, absorbing energy from the environment and converting it into Spiritual Energy at a rapid pace, but they didn't know how to integrate this energy into themselves, and so they naturally emitted more.

Third, these lifeforms were special, absorbing energy from the environment and converting it into Spiritual Energy at an exceptional pace, but they found it difficult to integrate this energy into themselves, so they emitted more Spiritual Energy.

The second and third circumstances were similar but fundamentally different. The former indicated great potential but a lack of self-cultivation, while the latter indicated inherently special lifeforms with average potential, who, despite cultivating, wouldn't achieve significant accomplishments.

The second type of lifeforms was not a worry; once guided, they would develop rapidly.

The third type of lifeforms, however, were naturally breeding species.

Intelligent life was a valuable resource...

... and its value lay in their quick absorption and conversion of natural energy into Spiritual Energy, and then naturally emitting large amounts of it.

If a lifeform naturally absorbed environmental energy and converted it into Spiritual Energy at a rapid pace, but lacked significant potential, wouldn't this make it a perfect breedable species?

Their greatest use was to provide a steady stream of Spirit Crystals for cultivators.

In the universe, countless civilizations, countless species, countless strange creatures existed, and so did such occurrences.

The better civilizations treated these lifeforms reasonably...

... whereas the worse civilizations treated them like slaves or livestock.

Human beings on Earth clearly weren't the first type.

As for whether they were the second or the third type, Lin Yun wasn't sure.

At the moment, his strength wasn't sufficient. Once he became stronger, he could explore deeper.

However, whether they were the second or third type, one effect would always occur.

That was, the environment these lifeforms lived in would be rich in various resources.

Spiritual Energy was a fascinating energy form of the Cosmos, especially in terms of accelerating the growth of life.

One thought could flower a million blooms; one thought could bare a million trees. This was a feat easily achieved by those with immense Mental Strength.

Microorganisms were also lifeforms, and Spiritual Energy also promoted their growth. Many resources evolved through the constant cycles of these microorganisms.

Billions of humans on Earth, who emitted terrifying amounts of Spiritual Energy daily, accelerated the evolution process everywhere, even though it wasn't purely Spiritual Energy.

Like oil... natural gas... coal…

Even, gold... silver... iron ore... copper ore...

And so on.

Whether humans on Earth were the second or the third type, Earth was definitely a treasure trove.

Lin Yun sighed inwardly.

Upon realizing that there were countless civilizations in the cosmos and that humans were potentially one such existence, he felt both fortunate and a sense of urgency.

Were other civilizations in the cosmos to discover Earth, it would be hard to predict what would happen.

Regardless, he had to grow stronger, and quickly.

...

As the days passed...

Everything was developing in a positive direction.

Qingyun Hotel was fully renovated and was full almost every day.

To create a hierarchy, Lin Yun didn't limit the standard configuration of each room to just the massage tub. Some higher-tier rooms were also equipped with massage chairs, offering comfort on par with the massage tubs. These two elements combined to create the ultimate enjoyment for guests traveling.

For those who didn't want to use the hotel's massage tub, some rooms were fitted only with massage chairs.

In addition to these features, there were also minor touches.

For instance, an air purification and circulation system.

Many hotels have underwhelming air quality, but the air in Qingyun Hotel was incredibly fresh.

The feeling inside a room at Qingyun Hotel was akin to being immersed in nature, a sensation unmatched by other hotels.

There was also a starry sky setting.

With a single click, the entire room would light up like nightfall with distant stars twinkling overhead, shooting stars occasionally glimpsing by — all of it felt lifelike.

With a gentle breeze and fresh air, lying in bed felt as though one was nestled under the starry sky in nature. Glancing around, subtle hints of faraway landscapes could be seen. Some rooms displayed mountains, others forests, grasslands, or waterfalls. These scenes offered guests immense relaxation.

Of course, rooms with such amenities weren't cheap, costing tens of thousands per day.

Compared to the tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands for presidential suites at five-star hotels.

Such room rates were not unacceptable.

He was sure that once someone stayed in such a room, they would be smitten.

Feeling as though one was in nature but also in the city, the fusion between urban and natural was overwhelmingly attractive.

With over two hundred rooms, the daily income was three to four million, like a small gold-eating beast.

The unique features of Qingyun Restaurant were not limited to its delicious food. There was also an array of fine wines. Naturally, these were beverages that Lin Yun had purchased from the Cosmic Trading System. Not cheap at all, the cheapest bottle cost tens of thousands while the more expensive ones were upwards of millions.

The most expensive wines, priced at tens of millions per bottle, were mainly used for show.

In case a wealthy patron desired them, he wouldn't run short.

Naturally, these various wines corresponded well to their respective price tags.

While Lin Yun didn't usually drink, he occasionally indulged in a beverage that enticed him. Naturally, when he drank, he only drank the wines priced in millions at Qingyun Restaurant.

He didn't price these wines too high.

Because in the Cosmic Trading System, these wines already cost five Spirit Energy Points a bottle.

Based on Lin Yun's calculations, five Spirit Energy Points were equivalent to over a million.

However, Lin Yun had priced the Spirit Energy Points relatively low.

If we consider the price of an exceptional jade piece instead, five Spirit Energy Points would be worth more than a hundred million.

Of course, the price of an exceptional jade piece was an exception and could not be considered the standard.

The value for a Hundred day Foundation Pill that had a significant effect was only ten Spirit Energy Points each.

From this, one could ascertain the rarity of this wine.

Naturally, the wine's price was justified. The taste was excellent, and long-term consumption even aided in Martial Arts practice. Although it didn't compare to the Hundred-Day Foundation Pill, it was also quite effective, worth the tens of millions just for this point.

In the Cosmic Trading System, anything beneficial for cultivation was not cheaply valued. Lin Yun believed it should be the same on Earth.

Although Qingyun Restaurant wasn't large, its turnover wasn't inferior to that of Qingyun Hotel, with daily sales reaching millions. Moreover, there was an increasing trend, making it another small gold-eating beast.

Lin Yun estimated that in a few days, Qingyun Restaurant and Qingyun Hotel would bring him tens of millions of profits daily.

This profit was terrifying. Many super companies didn't even make this much profit.

Such was the charm of luxury goods and their tremendous profits.

Of course, this was also due to Lin Yun's purchases, which had virtually no cost, and the good business of Qingyun Restaurant and Qingyun Hotel.

In any case, the reputation of Qingyun Restaurant and Qingyun Hotel gradually spread in Shen City's upper-class society.
