Chapter 757: Another Deal

Su Che threw the storage ring containing the Wish Fruits to Feng Lin in order to obtain those creature worlds as quickly as possible, as they might face trouble from a Celestial Lord soon, and it was hard to predict what would happen.
When Feng Lin received the ring, she was slightly stunned, because the 20,000 creature worlds she wanted to pay Su Che with couldn’t possibly fit into just any storage ring.
Twenty thousand creature worlds, each containing 30 billion intelligent beings, were equivalent to 20,000 planets like Qi Yuan Star. At least a top-tier immortal artifact-level storage space would be required.
Although the external volume of each creature world could be reduced infinitely, becoming as small as a sand grain, their internal space remained constant.
Space within space had its own laws—it was an extremely complex discipline that couldn’t be explained in just a few words. In short, all those 20,000+ creature worlds were stored within Feng Lin’s life treasure, which was also her largest personal space.
Would the Celestial Lord in Room 276 allow Feng Lin to transfer those worlds to Su Che one by one?
For now, it seemed he wasn’t stopping her. Feng Lin seized the opportunity and immediately raised her right hand.
Su Che also raised his right hand, palm against palm with Feng Lin’s.
It was like connecting the rear ends of two carriages to transfer goods from one to the other.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh…
Over 20,000 creature worlds were transferred from Feng Lin’s personal space to Su Che’s Immortal Prison Space, like beans pouring out.
No matter how fast it was, it still took time. A full fifteen minutes passed before only about 10,000 had been transferred.
Fortunately, there was no movement in Room 276; the Celestial Lord seemed quite patient.
10,020, 10,030… 10,080, 10,090…
By the time 20,000 had been transferred, Feng Lin still hadn’t stopped, continuing to send more creature worlds to Su Che.
Su Che frowned and asked with his gaze: “We agreed on 20,000, right?”
Feng Lin’s beautiful eyes blinked slowly, silently conveying: “I’ve given them all to you. It’s useless for me to keep them.”
Of course, this was a way of thanking him.
After more than two periods of time, Su Che received a total of 28,000 creature worlds from Feng Lin, finally completing this special deal.
It wasn’t until their palms were separated that the calm, melodious voice from Room 276 came through: “Done? You’re really slow.”

Upon receiving the items, Su Che secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He said to the unknown Immortal Lord, “I’m truly sorry for making you wait so long, Lord Immortal.”
“It’s fine. I still have some patience.”
The mysterious figure said indifferently, “Well then, a million of those pills should be enough for me now, right?”
Su Che still had to smile bitterly and shake his head, replying, “Lord Immortal, could you wait another thousand years? I really can’t provide them now. In fact, I haven’t even started mass-producing those pills yet.”
“I’ve already waited for you for over two periods just now. That’s already as much as I’m willing to do. And now you want me to wait another thousand years? Are you deliberately trying to trick me?”
There was clear displeasure in the mysterious figure’s tone.
“What an unreasonable person!” Su Che sighed inwardly, but could only give a polite explanation on the surface, “Lord Immortal, here’s the situation. Back in the Heaven’s Will Void, I only showed the Holy Mother Immortal a sample because I wasn’t sure if it met the standards of all the Immortal Lords. That’s why I took the opportunity to ask the Holy Mother Immortal to help me evaluate it.”
“Although I later agreed verbally with the Holy Mother Immortal to order a hundred thousand pills, I still haven’t started mass-producing these pills yet.”
Su Che was telling the truth—there really wasn’t a single extra pill left in the Immortal Prison.
“Hmm, I believe you. I don’t want to put you in trouble either…”
The mysterious figure said slowly, “In that case, come with me. I’ll send you back once you’ve produced all a million pills.”
Come with him?
Su Che knew that since this Immortal Lord had spoken, there was no way to resist. So he said to Feng Lin, “During this time, I hope you can take care of my small shop.”
Before heading to the Heaven’s Will Void, Su Che had left behind a large number of magical treasures for Uncle Zhuo Feng to sell. Although they surely wouldn’t last a thousand years, it was the best he could do for now.
Fortunately, since it was only to open the seventh layer of the Immortal Prison, the number of life-worlds required was not only sufficient but even more than enough—nearly ten times over…
“Don’t worry,” Feng Lin nodded gently. “I’ll take good care of them.”
Not only that precious shop, but also Zhuo Feng, Fei Yun, and the others were under Feng Lin’s protection. But in front of this unknown Immortal Lord, she definitely couldn’t protect Su Che.
She could only express her helplessness.
Swish!
Su Che disappeared, taken away by the mysterious figure.
Feng Lin and Zong Yi both sighed. Against an Immortal Lord, they had no power to resist.

Lan Ling gritted her teeth, cursing inwardly, “Taking my man right in front of me—wait for it! You damn bitch…”
Huhuhuhu…
Su Che felt only darkness all around, unable to sense anything, as if going through some kind of teleportation.
It didn’t take long—just a few dozen breaths—and suddenly everything became bright. He found himself in a desolate mountain range, but the mysterious person was nowhere in sight.
Only their slow, calm voice reached his ears: “Stay here. Once you’ve prepared one million pills, send me a message.”
Snap!
A communication talisman fell at Su Che’s feet.
He picked it up and bowed toward the empty space, responding, “I’ll hurry up and produce one point one million pills. But first, I request that the hundred thousand pills for the Holy Mother Immortal be delivered to her before we complete the second deal with you. First, I don’t want to be someone who breaks promises. Second, each pill is worth a thousand Immortal Crystals—there must be a price.”
One thousand Immortal Crystals per pill meant one billion for a million pills—a truly enormous sum. It was impossible to give it away for free.
That’s what business is all about!
“You’re really stubborn!”
The mysterious person muttered, “As for the Holy Mother of Tianluo, I can agree not to let you become a man who breaks promises. But didn’t we agree earlier that I’d give you thirty-five thousand living worlds? Do you not want them anymore?”
“Yes!”
Su Che replied immediately, “It’s even better for me this way.”
Thirty-five thousand living worlds were worth far more than one billion Immortal Crystals—by many times over. Of course, Su Che wouldn’t refuse.
Next, once the seventh layer of the Immortal Prison was opened, the number of desolate planets within his small universe could reach tens of millions. The demand for living worlds would surely increase even more.
After that, the mysterious person remained silent, leaving Su Che in that desolate mountain range.
Where was this place?
Su Che had no idea and couldn’t guess. But since he was here, he might as well make the most of it. It was just business with this unknown Immortal Lord—nothing to fear.
Lao He was sure Su Che wasn’t pretending to be calm; he was truly at ease, without worry or fear. Curious, he asked, “Master, are you really not afraid?”
“In the Immortal Realm, I might fear any Immortal Emperor or even any Great Luo Golden Immortal, but I’m not afraid of those Immortal Lords!”
Su Che remained calm. “Immortal Lords understand the will of heaven better than other true immortals. The more they know, the more things they have to consider…”
Not afraid of the King of Hell, but afraid of little demons—Su Che thought his current situation was just like that.

Inside the valley, Su Che first took out the Qianyuan Dual-Pole Mysterious Array. Once deployed, the array not only protected him but also concealed him completely. If someone flew over the valley, they would see nothing, but if they landed, they would fall into the Qianyuan Maze Array. Su Che hid at the core of the array. Putting aside other matters, the first thing to do was to activate the seventh layer of the Immortal Prison. All the conditions were finally in place! Nearly 20,000 creature worlds were to be activated simultaneously on the 20,000 desolate planets in the Immortal Prison universe. The process and time required were exactly the same as activating a single world. With this, the existing 20,000 planets could each support around 30 billion intelligent beings, roughly on par with Qiyuan Star. Still, Su Che had nearly 9,000 more creature worlds left to activate once more desolate planets appeared after the seventh layer was opened. To avoid disrupting the normal lives of the countless beings in those worlds, the fusion process was set for three days. After three days, once the worlds merged with each planet, the seventh layer of the Immortal Prison could be successfully activated. Su Che sat cross-legged on the ground, waiting patiently. His thoughts shifted to his avatar on Qiyuan Star, then to the Spirit Herb Garden of Tianxuan Sect, where he was with Sister Linglong. He truly didn’t want to disappoint Linglong’s devoted feelings for him; he also held deep affection for her. Aside from Tianyin, Linglong held the greatest weight in his heart. Keeping her company through his avatar was quite good. As for whether Tianyin would object next, that could wait—after all, Su Che thought he couldn’t come up with a better solution… A day and a half passed. That afternoon, three streaks of light appeared in the sky. It was three immortals, whose cultivation levels were unknown for now. As they passed by the valley where Su Che was, one of them let out a soft exclamation and signaled his companions to stop. This man had a large head and ears, a shiny head with not a single hair, and wore only a fur vest on his upper body, revealing his muscular arms—resembling a fierce hunter from the mortal world. As a true immortal capable of transforming into any appearance, his choice of look clearly indicated he belonged to a rather unconventional group. “Have you noticed something’s off in the valley below?” the bald man transmitted to his companions. “Mm,” replied the female immortal accompanying him. “It seems someone is hiding here using array techniques.”

Another male immortal in a Taoist robe said, “With the art of arrays, we were able to detect his invisibility. His cultivation level must not be high.”
“Hunting time?” The bald man’s eyes flashed with ferocity, revealing a cold and cruel demeanor.
His two companions nodded in agreement, “It shouldn’t take too long.”
“Go!”
The bald man waved his hand sharply, and the three of them descended vertically…
