Transmigrated as Investment Banker in Cultivation world
Chapter 66: Successful breakthrough!

The Spiritual Space finally stopped growing when it reached a staggering length of 5 kilometers—five times that of an average peak Foundation Building Realm expert!

David looked at this scene with astonishment. Although he had guessed his Spiritual Space was going to be large, he had never imagined it would grow to such an extent. It was monstrously huge.

Now that the changes had stopped, he could finally observe his Spiritual Space in peace. It resembled a large black lake because of the liquid mana. Even though he had an illusory body, David could still feel the familiar sensation of wetness.

The large gray pillar at the center, along with a couple of other pillars, were like world trees supporting his Spiritual Space. A little ecosystem seemed to have formed inside, with the rotating symbol in the middle filling the space with mana while the pillars absorbed the excess energy, balancing it.

David felt like a child watching an excavator working for the first time; given the opportunity, he could watch this scene forever. But alas, he couldn't. After taking one last glance, he shook his head and opened his eyes in reality.

Now it was time to face the tribulation.

As soon as David opened his eyes, he felt the tremendous change his body had undergone. He clenched and unclenched his fist, looking at it in amazement. He had a feeling that if the same girl attacked him now, he could just vaporize her with one punch.

"This is my own body, right? Or did I transmigrate again?" David jokingly thought, and paid the required money to the system for a status report.

In the next moment, a window displaying his stats appeared in front of him.

David smiled in satisfaction when he looked at the lifespan column. Now he could enjoy his wealth for a long time. A sheepish smile appeared in his face at the bank's remark. It wasn't that he didn't want to; he was just too busy with one thing or another.

Outside the dome-shaped bowl, dark clouds had started to gather, with multi-colored light flashing from time to time.

Somewhere near the Crimson Wall, in a huge hall, a middle-aged man suddenly stopped speaking and looked in the direction where David was breaking through with a frown on his face.

"Who might it be?" the middle-aged man thought for a moment and signaled his subordinate to continue.

"Yes, Captain."

"It was the Requiem Shadow who died, and she was most likely killed by a Golden Core expert."

Hearing the subordinate's words, Captain Nile's frown deepened.

"Now an unknown Golden Core expert," Captain Nile thought while lightly tapping the armrest of his chair.

The subordinate, who had just opened his mouth, didn't say anything else and kept his mouth shut.

Captain Niles forehead was filled black lines.

A Golden Core expert had appeared in the area under his watch, and he didn't even realize it. If such news were to spread, he would become a laughingstock.

Meanwhile, David looked at the twitching monster lying in one corner with disbelief.

In the next moment, the monster died and soon turned into particles of light before disappearing.

"It was so easy," David muttered in a low voice.

He had high expectations for the tribulation, but the monster had died in one punch. He didn't get the opportunity to use his chairs…Ahem! Weapons.

It wasn't that the monster was weak; it was that he was just too strong for someone at Rank 1 of the Foundation Building Realm.

The situation was similar to a class test: while looking at the question paper, some people would feel fear, while other students would easily solve all the questions without even trying and score full marks.

After all, the purpose of the heavenly tribulation wasn't to kill; it was just a test to check if the cultivator was worthy to hold the Crystallisation of Life. In case he failed, his Crystallisation of Life would be taken away and given to someone more suitable.

Simple as that.

David shook his head and decided not to think much about it.

"Shrink."

With his command, the Allheaven Canvas separated itself from the bowl and disappeared back into David's palm.

The bowl returned to its normal size and fell to the ground.

David picked it up and placed it inside his storage ring. He had a feeling that the bowl would be useful in the future.

"Thank you for protecting me, Origin." David walked near the Origin Guard and spoke in a grateful voice.

The Origin Guard seemed to understand his words and nodded in acknowledgment.

On closer look, the Origin Guard also seemed to have changed. David could now clearly tell that the Origin Guard had grown along with him. However, it wasn't surprising given that the Origin Guard was originally at the peak of the Foundation Building Realm when he was only at Body Refining Realm Rank 1.

So he might never surpass the Origin Guard in cultivation, or so he thought.

After some time, he flicked his wrist and placed the Origin Guard back in the inventory and started to walk back toward the Crimson Wall.

David took one step and instantly appeared hundreds of meters ahead.

"What the—!" David thought incredulously. Such speed, and he wasn't even using Purple Thunder yet.

Suddenly, David had an itch to fight. He prayed for someone to attack him so he could test his combat powers.

However, no one seemed interested in attacking him. After a couple of minutes, he appeared near the Crimson Wall.
