Transmigrated as Investment Banker in Cultivation world

While cultivators needed to stabilize their spiritual space, David was different; he didn't need to go through the same process as the others.

In the next moment, David was already inside his spiritual space, floating silently in mid-air.

Under his watchful eyes, a blue ball of light appeared in front of the Triquetra and started to rotate around it.

However, this scene lasted for barely a moment as, in the next instant, the little blue ball was swallowed by the Triquetra.

Immediately after, the spiritual space seemed to shake violently.

The mana sea below the Triquetra symbol also roared in excitement, sending waves of gray mana flying higher than ever before.

Rumble!

The boundless power of the Triquetra slammed into David's body like an enraged wave, pouring into his spiritual space and causing it to thrum.

The Triquetra, which was filled with numerous crystallizations of life, started to transform, causing his cultivation base aura to immediately begin to rise.

Before, he had already been very close to the peak of the Foundation Building Realm, just shy of the absolute peak. The spiritual space, which had completely stopped growing, also started to show signs of expansion once again.

Under David's disbelieving eyes, the Triquetra became completely golden, and the mana sea below his feet also started to transform, slowly turning from cold grayish color to shining gold.

As if some sort of restriction had been lifted, the space started to grow again madly.

100...

110...

150 kilometers.

"One hundred fifty kilometers long spiritual space…" David thought in disbelief, as well as a little excitement. He had been waiting for this day for a long time, and so he calmed himself down and focused on controlling the sudden influx of golden mana that had started to pour out of the huge gate connecting his body to the spiritual space.

Golden mana filled David's body, filling the dark room with a shiny radiance. From the outside, David's body almost looked like an enormous bulb.

As the shiny radiance filled the room, Mary and Borrito, who were standing guard, looked on in shock. Thankfully, the golden radiance wasn't able to escape the influence of the AllHeaven Canvas.

"What technique is Father practicing?" Borrito shivered as he tried to close his eyes—the radiance was almost going to blind him.

Suddenly, a gentle white light seemed to cover his body, protecting him.

"That... that mana is so pure!"

Mary's beautiful eyes blinked as she fell deep in thought. When she broke through, the golden glow wasn't this blinding.

As the scene continued, she even started to doubt David's words from before.

Under Mary's disbelieving gaze, David's body started to transform. The countless cells in his body began to divide at an unprecedented rate, and the new cells seemed to be filled with golden energy.

His black hair also seemed to flash with a golden color.

The transformation continued, and after three hours, David's body finally stopped glowing and returned to normal.

Rumbling sounds echoed in his mind as his eyes snapped open. At the same time, a boundless stream of energy erupted from within him.

Cultivation base breakthrough!

No longer was he a weak Foundation Building Realm cultivator—he was now a full-fledged expert at the Golden Core Realm.

"It worked," David shouted, his eyes gleaming with strange light. He had managed to break through without needing to merge the laws he had comprehended.

He looked at his body and could instantly feel the explosive strength surging through him. He gently punched the air, and this simple gesture caused it to shake and rupture.

David looked on in amazement, not understanding how this simple action could generate so much force.

"Be careful," Mary's voice suddenly took him out of his thoughts.

David instantly stood up from his sitting position and looked at the sky with a deep, profound look in his eyes.

The tribulation could descend at any moment.

He nodded in Mary's direction and started to walk out of the room.

Understanding his intention, the AllHeaven Canvas automatically merged back with his body without David needing to say anything.

The fight was going to create a huge commotion, so it was better to move far away from the settlement. The chance of someone snooping into his business was high here.

Without bothering to care about the rules, he took to the air as soon as he stepped out of the room.

"Wait for me, darling!"

Mary's voice came from behind. Although she couldn't interfere in the heavenly tribulation, at least she could make sure no one else interfered.

Sitting in a luxurious room somewhere, Lyla turned her gaze away from David's figure.

"Such strong spiritual pressure…" Lyla murmured thoughtfully.

However, at this time, she wasn't the only one to notice David's breakthrough.

"Hmm, interesting... I will have to send a report to headquarters," the old monk muttered with his eyes closed.

These days, he rarely had time to look around—he was too busy trying to find the guy selling coffee.

Meanwhile, David's body had turned into a bolt of purple lightning, moving through the air at a fast speed.

The ground beneath him became nothing more than a blur.

If it weren't for his strong body, David feared he might not have been able to tolerate the air pressure.

A strong shockwave rippled behind him as he cut through the air at great speed.

David suddenly stopped and looked around his surroundings vigilantly.

A green forest filled with blood-colored trees seemed to stretch infinitely, with no living being in sight. The sky was weirdly cloudless.

His surroundings suddenly seemed to have been cut off from the rest of the world.

The Web of Mindfulness was vibrating intensely, but there was no one around David.

Mary, who was following behind David, also stopped and backed away with Borrito in her arms.

Suddenly, David turned his head to look behind him. A dark figure had unknowingly appeared.

"Shadow Stalker," Mary muttered with a serious expression.

A dark, shadowy, formless creature standing eight feet tall loomed behind David, its body shifting like smoke, making it difficult to focus on for more than a moment. Numerous red eyes on its shadowy body were focused on David's figure.

Mary was familiar with the Shadow Stalker, having exchanged blows with it in the past.

The monster was very tricky to deal with.

David stood still in mid-air, the surroundings filled with tension, his complete focus on the shadow monstrosity.

Suddenly, the Shadow Stalker's figure flickered, and the creature vanished from sight, escaping even the detection of the Web of Mindfulness.

In the next moment, David's eyes narrowed, and an exquisitely carved chair appeared in his hand.

The Shadow Stalker suddenly appeared near him in a cloud of black smoke.

David spun around with the chair in his hand, just in time to block one of the creature's tendrils that shot out like a whip. The force of the strike knocked him back, sending him flying through the air.

Before he could stabilize himself, the creature blinked and appeared again on his right.

"Damn it," David gritted his teeth and cursed internally. The Shadow Stalker didn't even give him time to think.

Its attack contained no fancy technique, preventing him from using his cheat, the Crystallization of Life.

But now wasn't the time to think about such minor things.

Suddenly, David's surroundings filled with a heavy fog.

David took a deep breath and tried to find the Shadow Stalker's figure. A bead of sweat rolled down his forehead as he pushed the Web of Shadows to its limit.

At that moment, the air seemed to ripple.

Whoosh!

A dark blur flashed past him. David barely twisted out of the way in time, feeling the unnatural chill of the creature's tendrils brush against his skin.

Purple lightning flashed around his chair as he brought it above his head, just as the Shadow Stalker materialized behind him.

It moved like a liquid shadow—impossible to pin down, vanishing in one spot only to reappear twenty meters away in the blink of an eye.

"Damn it," David muttered through gritted teeth. The creature was toying with him, letting the tension build. The dark forest around him felt suffocating, as though the shadows themselves were alive, ready to swallow him whole. He swung his chair in a wide arc, but it passed through nothing but air.

"Okay, that's enough playing around," David thought with a resigned smile.

He realized that if he didn't use his cheats, he could never defeat such a monster.

Without hesitation, David flicked his wrists, and a huge table appeared in mid-air. However, before it could even fall toward the ground, the AllHeaven Canvas instantly merged with it.

Mary, who was standing far away, looked at this scene with a small smile. She had been worrying for nothing.

For a moment, she seemed to have forgotten how monstrous David could be if he were allowed to have his way.

"Didn't I tell you, woman, before? You were worrying for nothing." Borrito standing on Mary's shoulder also jumped in excitement.
