When Lin Yun returned to the Middle East base, it wasn't yet dawn.
At this point, he had only been away for six or seven hours.
That was less time than his last trip to India.
The base was quiet.
Lin Yun's hovercar, suspended in the air, observed for a while before setting off for India again.
He was still in the early stages of development and needed Spirit Crystals everywhere he went.
He couldn't waste such a huge opportunity to acquire Spirit Crystals. In India, he could obtain seven hundred Spirit Crystals a day. Here, his Cosmic Trading System's ability to absorb and refine surrounding spiritual energy was wasted.
There were only a handful of people within ten thousand meters of this place.
"If only I hadn't chosen this development path earlier..." Lin Yun shook his head.
Initially, he didn't know that humans on Earth expelled so much spiritual energy each day, and he didn't expect to be frequently separated from crowds of people.
It was also unexpected that he would acquire some degree of spirituality on Earth so quickly. After integrating some professional devices to absorb and refine spiritual energy, the efficiency was almost comparable to his Cosmic Trading System's ability to absorb and refine surrounding spiritual energy.
Now, he needed to figure out a way to utilize the Cosmic Trading System's ability to absorb and refine surrounding spiritual energy so that it wouldn't go to waste.
Keeping him in a densely populated city was not a solution.
15 minutes later, Lin Yun arrived at the same city he had visited last time.
It was the same small courtyard as before.
No one had come to the small courtyard.
As Lin Yun entered the city, the balance on his Cosmic Trading System account rapidly increased.
"This operation, although I didn't rely on my personal martial power in many situations, some were still exerted. Those grandmasters were all very powerful..."
In the courtyard, Lin Yun began practicing his boxing moves while muttering softly.
Just by watching those martial art grandmasters, he had learned a lot.
The things those grandmasters had shown were not possessed by machines with Huajin abilities.
Now, he began to digest these gains one by one.
The man on the other end of the phone was Lang Jiuping.
"Uh..." Lang Jiuping was at a loss for words.
With such exciting news, shouldn't you be excited too?
Why are you so calm?
Don't try to act so cool!
"But, I didn't expect you guys to find out so quickly. Judging by the phone number you're using, you're not in the country, are you?" Lin Yun said again.
Ever since the incident at the Royal Club, he had ordered some custom cell phones through the Cosmic Trading System.
If someone was to make a call, he could quickly get the exact location of the caller, and he could also gather some information about nearby communication devices.
However, he couldn't tell Lang Jiuping about this directly.
"In the world of Spirit Seekers, a lot of them are martial artists, and this incident has spread like wildfire. In two battles, you wiped out twenty martial arts grandmasters... Those were grandmasters..." Lang Jiuping hurriedly said, getting excited again as he continued.
He couldn't help but get excited about this. As a Spirit Seeker, he had seen a lot, and because of that, he knew how powerful a grandmaster could be and how much influence one could have.
If a martial arts school or family had a grandmaster, it was like having a pillar, and many martial artists had to look up to them.
If an organization had a grandmaster, then no one would dare to underestimate them, including some of the less high-ranking officials.
To wipe out twenty grandmasters in less than two days was astounding.
This time, Lin Yun didn't interrupt Lang Jiuping's speech and listened until he was finished.
But Lang Jiuping didn't say much more before quickly getting to the point and laughing, "Well, Mr. Lin, sorry, I got a bit carried away there. I called to tell you that we've obtained a spirit-item that possesses high spirituality. We are also in contact with several other spirit-items that have high spirituality. We should be able to get them in a couple of days. How about we plan the trade?"
They didn't have a lot of funds and could only obtain one spirit-item that possessed high spirituality. If they couldn't trade their high spirituality spirit-item quickly with Lin Yun, they wouldn't be able to obtain the next few high spirituality spirit-items.
However, they couldn't tell Lin Yun about this either.
"Sure, where are you? I'll send someone to get the item and pay the billion-dollar fee on the spot," Lin Yun nodded slightly.
"Uh... We are in America... Will that work?" Lang Jiuping paused, quickly reported a location and asked hesitantly.
"I have someone there on business. Wait there for ten minutes, and he will arrive. By the way, you do have the item with you, don't you?" Lin Yun asked with a faint smile.
"The item isn't with us, but it's close by. I'll have someone fetch it right away," Lang Jiuping immediately replied.
It was a ten-billion-dollar item, the entirety of their assets. How could they carry it around carelessly?
