One million divine crystals, a sum of wealth enough to rival the entire fortunes of most ordinary Archimmortals, had landed in Wu Yuan’s lap just like that. Even without aiming to make money, wealth came knocking on his door. 0

Of course, Wu Yuan knew that such opportunities were rare. Firstly, it was not Astral Lord Long Xing’s true self facing danger. Few Astral Lords were willing to pay a hefty price to save a mana body. The vast majority would rather let it perish and slowly nurture a new mana body or ether body. For Astral Lords, time was not a precious commodity.0

Secondly, Astral Lord Hao Chi's quick agreement and eagerness to assist wasn't due to the divine crystals, but more so Wu Yuan himself.0

This is the first time I've asked him for help, which is equivalent to owing a favor. Wu Yuan thought to himself. In the future when I become powerful, if Astral Lord Hao Chi faces any difficulties and needs my help, I'll have to assist him as well.0

This was karma, which he would need to find a way to resolve in the future.0

Archimmortal Long Xing's willingness to pay ten million divine crystals is also because he doesn't want me to owe too great a karmic debt. Wu Yuan mused.0

If Astral Lord Hao Chi had offered his assistance for free, the karmic debt incurred would have been truly immense. But paying ten million divine crystals made the situation entirely different. Ordinary Astral Lords couldn’t ignore such an enormous fortune.0

I've never asked...3
