1 HOUR LATER.
"What a good riddance." Alex muttered to himself as he watched the departing silhouettes of the cultivators that he captured earlier.
The backs of the departing cultivators were hunched, as if there was something massive pressing on their backs right now.
Alex did not comment anything about this, as he knew that he was the reason these cultivators were feeling this kind of burden.
"You should all remember what I told you to do." Alex thought to himself as his eyes focused on the backs of the cultivators. "You know what will happen if you don't. Hehehe…"
"Alex, you are looking villainous right now. Please stop smiling in that creepy way." Alina chided behind Alex as she shook her head.
Alex, who heard Alina talking to him, beamed up as he realized that Alina is actually talking to him now!
"Alina!"
"Hmph, don't think that just because I am talking to you now that I have forgiven you already." Alina said to Alex as she crossed her arms. "I am still angry at you, and it will not be easy for you to appease me!"
"Hehehe, I know, I know." Alex said as he ignored Alina's warning. "Oh, I am actually planning to cook steak later. What meat do you want me to use?"
"…Boar meat."
"Oh, seems like Queen Mother's story earlier has triggered your taste buds."
"S-shut up! Just cook it like you promised later!"
"Hai, hai. I will cook it with pleasure…" Alex replied merrily as he watched Alina turn red from embarrassment.
After having his fill on teasing Alina, Alex looked at both Queen Mother and Professor Frances, who were staring at Alex with seriousness in their eyes.
Upon seeing their look, Alex knew that these two are already ready to proceed onwards.
"Okay, okay. Now that we have sent out those cultivators, I think it is time for us to upgrade our strengths." Alex said as he poked Asteria, who was sitting beside him. "Oi fairy, show us the goods already."
"Ha?"
"I said, show us the Items that we can buy."
"Oh that. Just… wait a minute. Let me finish this smoothie first."
"…"
"Slurp slurp slurp."
"…"
"Slurp, lick, lick, slurp."
"…"
"Lick, lick, slurp, slurp."
"…"
"Slurp. Burp! Argh! That was great! I want to drink more of that! Hooman! Please give me one mor-"
"Asteria, the goods."
"Fine, fine. Why are you always this strict to me?" Asteria grumbled as she touched Alex's forehead. Her body then glowed, which was followed by Asteria reciting all of the Items that Alex can buy.
[[Essence of the Blue Moon]] --- 30 Years
[[Essence of the Yellow Moon]] --- 30 Years
[Essence of the Green Moon]] --- 30 Years
[[Essence of the Red Moon]] --- 30 Years
[[Tome of Divine Might]] --- 30 Years
[[Pearl of Endless Void]] --- 30 Years
[[Sword of Indomitable Will]] --- 30 Years
[[Tower of Afterlife]] --- 30 Years
[[Superhero Cultivation Body]] --- 5 Years
These are the Items from the last world, which are fortunately still available here.
As for the next 4 Items, these are the ones that became available here in this world.
[[IMMORTAL CULTIVATION TECHNIQUE]] --- 150 YEARS OF LIFESPAN OR 750,000 CONTRIBUTION POINTS
[[SUPREME ART OF CHRONOMANCY]] --- 120 YEARS OF LIFESPAN OR 600,000 CONTRIBUTION POINTS
[[WISDOM TREE BLOODLINE]] --- 140 YEARS OF LIFESPAN OR 700,000 CONTRIBUTION POINTS
[[DIVINE LIFE MANUSCIPRT]] --- 75 YEARS OF LIFESPAN OR 500, 000 CONTRIBUTION POINS
"…." Once Alex had received the list of Items, his eyes narrowed as he analyzed all of them.
"Right now, I am highly tempted to buy the Immortal Cultivation Method." Alex thought to himself as he cupped his chin. "Even if it will be my 3rd major power, I think it won't detriment me. Actually, it could even be of great help to me! There is a chance that I can use Immortal Cultivation to create a stable link between my Esper Power and my Abyss Ability!"
"As for Chronomancy, Wisdom Tree Bloodline, and the Divine Life Manuscript, I have the feeling that they won't mesh that well with me." Alex thought as he shook his head. "Maybe it's just my opinion, but I think these 3 Items will be more suited for my companions…"
Alex then nodded to himself, as he convinced himself that he was making the right decision here. "Yes, I have a feeling that I should just get the Immortal Cultivation Method…"
Of course this decision could be wrong, but Alex has the feeling that it will not go that way.
After mulling about these new Items, Alex turned back his attention on the old Items.
He first focused on the Four Essences of the Moons, which was at the top of the list.
"The four essences of the moons…. If I buy them all now, I reckon that something special might happen too." Alex thought to himself as he remembered the overbearing effects of the moon powers. "Yeah, maybe I should buy them now…"
"But should I really buy them all now?" Alex suddenly hesitated as he remembered something important. "Wait a second… there is actually no need for me to buy them."
Alex's eyes then gleamed as a sly smile appeared on his face. "Why use my Lifespan when I can just use Greed to take the powers of a Devourer and a Red Moon practitioner at the Four Moons world? Yes, I can do that!" Alex shouted inwardly as he started to feel impressed with his deduction. "If I do it this way, I can save 60 Years of Lifespan! For someone like me who has to be careful with my Lifespan, saving 60 Years is a good thing!"
After he made a decision on these Essences, Alex then ruminated on the next 4 items in the list.
"As for the Items like the Tome of Divine Might, Sword of Indomitable Will, Pearl of the Endless Void, and Tower of Afterlife, these Items sounds like real objects to me." Alex muttered as he could see that these Items were not powers or techniques, but rather, material objects. "They could provide me a massive boost in an attribute, which will be helpful to me. Hmm… which one should I buy from them?"
"Then there is this Superhero Cultivation Body." Alex thought to himself as he looked at this Item. "I lost interest on buying it at the last world, since I was busy of reaching Grade 7. But now, maybe I should take interest in this already…. After all, Asteria said that buying one might be of great help to me."
Alex's eyes then narrowed once more as he remembered the kinds of superpowers that he can get from buying the Superhero Cultivation Body.
[Temperature Control]
[Friction Manipulation]
[Momentum and Flux Dispersion]
[Silica Control]
[Sound Manipulation]
[Turbulence Induction]
[Cat Summons]
[Lockpicking]
As he recalled this list in his mind, Alex's lips closed into a thin line as he let out a subconscious nod.
"In this list, the only powers that I am interested in are either [Temperature Control] or [Momentum and Flux Dispersion]." Alex thought to himself as he scrunched his nose. "However, I am sure that I can only choose one from these two. Buying two, according to Asteria, will just result in my death."
Once he had finished reviewing all of the available items, Alex let out a laugh as a greedy expression appeared on his face. "So… these are all the items that I can buy. Hmm, which one should I buy that will give me the greatest boost in this world?"
"…." Alex then went silent as he thought of every possible power combination that he can make with the current items.
"…"
With his strengthened mind, it only took Alex a few seconds to find the best power combination for him.
"Oi Asteria." Alex suddenly shouted out as he picked up the blonde fairy. "How much lifespan do I still have left?"
"You spent an extra 73 days at the Four Moons world, and then you spent 12 hours in this world." Asteria said as she pushed away Alex's hand. "Then you earned 150 Years from 'destroying' the Green Moon, and 75 Years from the Red Moon."
"Asteria, why the hell are you sounding doubtful when saying that?"
"Then you obtained 200 Years as compensation for the sudden hiatus. Then you spent 100 Years of Lifespan to arrive at this world." Asteria said as she ignored Alex's retort. "Combine that with your remaining lifespan, and you were left with around 330 Years and 1 Month of Lifespan."
"Holy f**k!" Alex exclaimed as he shook his head dazedly." I thought I got a lot of Lifespan, but as it turns out, I actually got a lot of it!"
Behind Alex, his allies were looking at himwith opened mouths, as if they were also shocked with what they just heard.
"What the f**k Alex! How did you get that many Lifespan!" Professor Frances shouted out as she took a deep breath. "Do you know how many Items you can buy from that?"
"Impressive, Alex. It seems like you have lucked out when Emperor Litch possessed you." Queen Mother commented quietly as she munched on some chili. "You must take care of your enormous Lifespan. Please do not use it to buy useless things."
"…Hmph, at least you gained something great from that Emperor B*tch." Alina muttered as she let out a sigh. "If you did not get this many benefits from him, I will surely be rioting now!"
"Hehehehe, you don't need to flatter me already." Alex hastily said as he raised his arms. "Sure, I might have gotten this many Lifespan, but once I am done with my purchases, I will also lose a lot of them."
"Ho? So have you made your decision then, hooman?"
"Of course I did. Why do you think I went silent earlier? It's for making my decision!" Alex replied as he shook his head.
"…Just state what you want to buy hooman. I can sense your excitement right now."
"Okay, here I go then." Alex replied as he took a deep breath.
He then closed his eyes for a few seconds as he did a last-second review of the items that he will buy.
Once he had made sure that he made the right choice, Alex let out the breath that he had been holding as he said,
"Please buy the Immortal Cultivation Body, the Superhero Cultivation Body with [Temperature Control] as its power, the Sword of Indomitable Will, the Pearl of the Endless Void and the Tome of Divine Might." Alex rapidly said, which made Asteria blink twice. "Oh, and how much will it cost if I have to make Professor Frances to be my Companion?"
"W-wait a second hooman. Okay let me see here… Okay here it is. So, since Professor Frances is considered to be Queen Mother's offspring, her original cost, which is 15 Years, had been reduced to only 3 Years of Lifespan…"
"Only 3 Years? Hehehe…if that is the case, then add that to the list too."
"Noted." Asteria replied as she gave Alex a greedy look. "So are you sure about all of this already, hooman? You can still change what you want to buy."
"I won't change my mind now. So please, just give them to me already."
"Hehehe, you were the one who said that, okay?" Asteria replied happily as she started clapping. "So as for the price… The total cost of the Items you will buy will be around 245 Years. Combining that with the 3 Years for making Professor Frances your Companion, will result in a grand total of 248 Years of Lifespan!"
"Just shut up and buy them already." Alex said as he rubbed his forehead. "I don't need to see your happy face right now. It just pisses me off for some reason…"
"Hehehe, how could I not be happy? You are now starting to be a great customer!"
"…"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

Alex replied as he took a deep breath.He then closed his eyes for a few seconds as he did a last-second review of the items that he will buy.Once he had made sure that he made the right choice, Alex let out the breath that he had been holding as he said, "Please buy the Immortal Cultivation Body, the Superhero Cultivation Body with Temperature Control as its power, the Sword of Indomitable Will, the Pearl of the Endless Void and the Tome of Divine Might." Alex rapidly said, which made Asteria blink twice. "Oh, and how much will it cost if I have to make Professor Frances to be my Companion?""W-wait a second hooman. Okay let me see here Okay here it is. So, since Professor Frances is considered to be Queen Mother's offspring, her original cost, which is 15 Years, had been reduced to only 3 Years of Lifespan" "Only 3 Years? Heheheif that is the case, then add that to the list too.""Noted." Asteria replied as she gave Alex a greedy look. "So are you sure about all of this already, hooman? You can still change what you want to buy.""I won't change my mind now. So please, just give them to me already.""Hehehe, you were the one who said that, okay?" Asteria replied happily as she started clapping. "So as for the price The total cost of the Items you will buy will be around 245 Years. Combining that with the 3 Years for making Professor Frances your Companion, will result in a grand total of 248 Years of Lifespan!""Just shut up and buy them already." Alex said as he rubbed his forehead. "I don't need to see your happy face right now. It just pisses me off for some reason""Hehehe, how could I not be happy? You are now starting to be a great customer!"""
