This is a cultivation game, but the operation is bad

Deep Sea Dragon Realm - Dragon Shop = Dragon Clan's Money Bag.

Phoenix Domain of Flame Mountain - Phoenix Clan Shop = Phoenix Clan's Money Bag.

Nine Heavens Thunder Swamp - Thunder Shop = Money Bag of the Eight Righteous Thunders.

If the Thunder Department from the Eight Great Gods has appeared, could it be that the other departments also created a hidden map in the Immortal Cultivation Era?

"Damn it, are all those bastards from Heaven going into business to make money off the seas?"

Jiang Liu remained silent for a moment, but he wasn't angry.

Since everyone's going to be fleeced anyway, what difference does it make who fleeces whom?

He preferred being cut by the Eight True Gods rather than being plotted against by the Dragon Clan or Phoenix Clan.

After all, if he doesn't guard the gate after he ascends to heaven, he might very well become a civil servant in one of the eight departments of the Heavenly Court.

So, consider this money as a bribe to the leader in advance.

I spent over a billion spirit stones and gained 200 favorability points with the Thunder Department of the Eighth Gods. If I join the Thunder Department in the future, I'll be assigned dirty and tiring jobs.

Then all that money I gave was for nothing?

Boss, remember me! This money is a tribute from me.

My requirements aren't high. Can I become the Thunder God who delivers tribulations to cultivators?
"200 favorability points is a bit low. I hope that changing to a hidden job will give more favorability points."

Jiang Liu muttered to himself, "Since this is Lei's money bag, I won't hide it anymore."

I'm going to spend a lot of money!

How much does it cost to switch to a hidden job? I'll pay that amount!
The requirements aren't high; just change the favorability rating.

As he pondered this, he focused his gaze on the pop-up window in front of him.

Jiang Liu: “!!!!”

1000% All Attributes!
300% critical damage!

Damn awesome!
This hidden class is awesome! Lei Bu is really going all out to force players to spend money!
"Do it, start!"

Jiang Liu didn't hesitate at all and immediately clicked to start the job change.

[System Notification: The Thunder Immortal Lord Job Change Quest - Thunder Lord Nirvana has begun. It consists of five trials that must be completed in sequence. Each trial has minimum requirements for completion; failure to meet the requirements will result in immediate failure.]

[Trial 1: Body Tempering in the Thunder Source Purgatory - Requires absorbing 100 million strands of primordial lightning in the Thunder Source Purgatory to condense a Thunder Dao Embryo (Minimum requirement: 500 million spirit stones; failure to reach this amount will prevent entry into the Thunder Source Purgatory)]

[Trial Four: Core Activation - Requires sufficient Primordial Thunder Crystals to activate the Thunder-Controlling Immortal Venerable Core (Minimum requirement: 30 billion Spirit Stones; failure to meet this requirement will result in core collapse)]

"Wow, so expensive?"

When Jiang Liu saw the minimum requirements for passing these four trials, he couldn't help but gasp. Even he felt a chill run down his spine.

A minimum of 60 billion spirit stones is required to complete these four trials!

Minimum compliance requirements?
This is the minimum spending requirement, right?

"6000 billion spirit stones. If we discount it by 0.1, that's 60 million spirit stones. I have over 1 million spirit stones, so it's fine."

Jiang Liu did the math, then checked the balance in his backpack, and immediately relaxed.

If you have the money, you can afford to keep it!

[System prompt: Enter Thunder Source Purgatory and begin the first trial?]

【Yes】

With a flash of white light, Jiang Liu's figure disappeared from the spot, and when he reappeared, he was already in a terrifying inferno.

There is no sky, no ground; all around is a rolling sea of ​​purple lightning. The raging primordial lightning moves like a giant dragon, each bolt containing terrifying power capable of tearing space apart.

The air was filled with an extremely dense thunderous power; inhaling it felt as if it would tear apart one's meridians.

[System notification: You have entered the Thunder Source Purgatory. Trial One—Thunder Source Purgatory Body Tempering—has officially begun.]

[Mission Requirements: Absorb 1 million primordial lightning bolts within 1 hour to condense a Thunder Dao Embryo]

[Mission Difficulty: The primal lightning is extremely corrosive. Absorbing 1000 lightning bolts will result in a "Lightning Source Backlash," causing damage equal to 30% of your current health. Without lightning protection, you will be directly killed by the backlash.]

[Thunder Department Support Gift 1: Purchase "Thunder Source Protection Shield" for 500 million spirit stones. It grants immunity to thunder source backlash for 1 hour.]

[Thunder Department Support Gift 2: Purchase "Thunder Source Absorption Acceleration Card" for 500 million spirit stones. Increases the absorption speed of primordial lightning by 1000% for 1 hour]

[Thunder Department Support Gift Three: Purchase the "Thunder Dao Embryo Success Card" for 5 million spirit stones. No matter how many Dao Origin Lightnings are absorbed, a Thunder Dao Embryo will definitely be formed after 1 hour, and the quality of the Dao Embryo will be upgraded to the perfect level.]

[System prompt: It is recommended that you purchase at least option 1, otherwise the mortality rate is 99.99%]

Jiang Liu: “.”

Another 15 billion spirit stones!
Oh no, I don't think I can afford to lose the little money I have in my pocket.
Jiang Liu's lips twitched slightly, but in order to successfully change jobs, he gritted his teeth and bought them all.

Thunder God, look at me! My name is Jiang Liu!
[You have spent 5 million spirit stones to purchase the Thunder Source Protection Shield]

[You have spent 5 million spirit stones to purchase a Thunder Source Absorption Acceleration Card]

[You have spent 5 million spirit stones to purchase the Thunder Dao Embryo Guaranteed Success Card]

[System Notification: Lightning Source Protection Shield activated, immune to lightning source backlash]

[Lightning Absorption Acceleration Card activated; original lightning absorption speed increased by 1000%]

next second.

Countless bolts of lightning surged into Jiang Liu's body like dragons, making him shine ten thousand times brighter than an incandescent light bulb!
[Original Lightning Absorption Progress: 10 million/1000 million (1%)]

[Original Lightning Absorption Progress: 30 million/3000 million (1%)]

[Original Lightning Absorption Progress: 60 million/6000 million (1%)]

[Original Lightning Absorption Progress: 100 million/1 million (1%)]

In just 30 minutes, Jiang Liu absorbed 1 million primordial lightning bolts, which was the result of purchasing the acceleration card.

1 million in 30 minutes! Damn, you can't finish it if you don't buy!

[System Notification: The Thunder Dao Embryo Success Card has been activated; a perfect-grade Thunder Dao Embryo is being condensed.]

[System Notification: Perfect-grade Thunder Dao Embryo successfully condensed; Trial One completed]

[Reward: Lightning Attack +100%, Lightning Defense +100%, Unlock Skill - Lightning Source Protection, consumes 50 Spirit Stones to generate a lightning source shield that can absorb 2000% of the user's own defense, lasting 20 seconds]

[First Trial Reward: +100 Raibu Affinity]

[System notification: The second trial, "Ninefold Divine Thunder Tribulation," has begun. Enter now?]

First trial complete! Directly to the second trial!

Enter!

Jiang Liu's mind stirred, and he instantly teleported into the tribulation space, surrounded by booming thunder and system notifications.

[System Prompt: The Ninefold Divine Thunder Tribulation is about to begin. The intensity of each tribulation increases tenfold. Please proceed with caution.]

[Thunder Tribulation Gift 1: Purchase "Thunder Tribulation Weakening Card" for 100 million spirit stones each. Each card reduces the intensity of a single thunder tribulation by 50%. Maximum purchase of 9 cards]

[Thunder Tribulation Gift 2: Purchase a "Thunder Tribulation Offset Card" for 200 million spirit stones. This card can directly offset one level of thunder tribulation. A maximum of 9 cards can be purchased.]

[Third Gift for Thunder Tribulation Transcending: Purchase a "Thunder Tribulation Resurrection Card" for 3 million spirit stones, which allows for one resurrection on the spot.]

"Emmm, so expensive, what a rip-off!"

Jiang Liu looked at the three large gift packages in front of him and couldn't help but sigh deeply.

What could he do?

Can he not buy it?
"The weakening card costs 1 million spirit stones, but we don't know the strength of the lightning tribulation. If it's weakened but still kills me, then it'll be a huge loss."

Jiang Liu muttered to himself, "Since we're going to buy, we might as well be generous!"
9 Lightning Tribulation Cancellation Cards!

One billion spiritual stones!
A generous offer of 1800 million spirit stones!
Leader of the Thunder Department, look at me! I've offered another 18 billion spirit stones!
It's not that I can't survive the tribulations of lightning; I just want to make offerings!
[System Notification: Tribulation Offense Cards (9 cards) have been activated. The Ninefold Divine Thunder Tribulation has begun.]

In an instant.

The sky above Thunder Source Purgatory suddenly changed color. The originally churning purple sea of ​​lightning was stirred up by an even more terrifying force. The dark clouds instantly gathered into a huge vortex. The center of the vortex was pitch black, and countless golden lightning bolts shuttled and condensed within it. The pressure they emitted caused the entire Thunder Source Purgatory to tremble violently, and even fine cracks appeared in space.

boom!
With a deafening roar, the first massive bolt of lightning shot straight down from the vortex of dark clouds. This bolt of lightning was ten meters in diameter, golden in color, and wrapped with black destructive lightning. Wherever it passed, space was torn open, leaving a long passage!

From the sky!

Just as it was about to strike Jiang Liu, a golden light suddenly burst forth from Jiang Liu's body, completely neutralizing all the lightning tribulation energy!
The first tribulation has been neutralized; the second tribulation is about to begin.

The second tribulation of lightning has been neutralized.

The third tribulation of lightning has been neutralized.

The power of spending money is unleashed!

The ninefold lightning tribulation left them completely unharmed!

[System Notification: Ninefold Divine Thunder Tribulation Completed]

[Second Trial Reward: Unlock Skill - Wrath of Thunder Tribulation, consumes 100 million spirit stones, summons a ninefold thunder tribulation phantom, deals 1500% thunder damage to enemies within a 3000-meter radius, and inflicts paralysis for 5 seconds]

[Second Trial Reward: +100 Raibu Affinity]

[System notification: The third trial, "Trial of the Thunder Gods," has begun. Enter now?]

Great!
Another 100 points of favorability with Raibu!
400 favorability points!

If I keep spending like this, will I suddenly become a leader in the Thunder Department?

Jiang Liu thought to himself with delight, and couldn't wait to begin the third trial.

【Enter】

[System Prompt: The Thunder Gods' Pantheon has 99 floors, each guarded by a projection of a Thunder God. The projections' strength increases from the early Tribulation Transcending stage to the Great Ascension stage. Defeating the projection allows you to advance to the next floor.]

[Lightning Department Support Gift 1: Purchase "Projection Weakening Privilege" for 200 million spirit stones, which can weaken all projections by 50% of their overall combat power]

[Lightning Department Support Gift 5: Purchase 'Layer Skip Privilege' for 1 million spirit stones. After death, you can skip one floor directly, up to a maximum of 30 floors.]

[Third Gift from the Thunder Department: Purchase "Projection Instant Kill Privilege" for 500 million spirit stones. This allows you to instantly kill one layer of projection, with a maximum of 30 triggers.]

"Three privileges, 12 billion spirit stones, the floor-jumping privilege and the projection instant kill privilege can help me pass through 60 floors."

Jiang Liu considered his own combat strength. He had already managed to clear level 60, so clearing the first 39 levels shouldn't be a problem.

buy!
[Enter the Pantheon of Thunder Gods?]

【Enter】

A flash of white light, and Jiang Liu's figure appeared in a magnificent palace.

This palace is entirely forged from ancient thunder crystals, standing tens of thousands of feet tall. The roof is carved with countless lifelike phantoms of the Thunder Gods, as if they might step down from the roof at any moment.

The palace has 99 floors, stacked one on top of the other, reaching straight into the clouds. Each floor exudes a terrifying pressure, which is the aura of the Thunder God's projection.

In the main hall on the first floor, a phantom figure dressed in silver armor and wielding a thunderous spear slowly emerged.

This projection was eight feet tall, with a cold and stern face. It was surrounded by pale purple lightning, and the lightning spear in its hand exuded a chilling killing intent. Just by standing there, it gave people an incomparably powerful sense of oppression.

"Five Elements Revolving Sword!"

[You have defeated Lei Bu's junior officer and entered the second level.]

Jiang Liu stepped into the second level. The guardian projection of the second level was still a junior general from the Thunder Department, but his strength was much greater than that of the first level, but the result was still the same.

"Five Elements Revolving Sword!"

You have defeated Lei Bu's junior officer.

You have defeated Lei Bu's junior officer.

You have defeated Lei Bu's junior officer.

10 floors, 20 floors, 30 floors.
When he reached the 40th floor, Jiang Liu was too lazy to do anything and simply activated his floor-jumping privilege.

You have skipped 40 floors.

You have skipped 41 floors.

You have skipped 42 floors.

After he used up his tier-jump privilege, he started using his instant kill privilege.

[You are using the projection flash sale privilege]

[You are using the projection flash sale privilege]

[You are using the projection flash sale privilege]

He didn't even glance at the projected BOSS on the 99th floor before it was gone.

This is the power of spending money!

[System notification: Third trial completed]

[Third Trial Reward: Lightning Damage +200%, Lightning Defense +200%, Unlock Skill - Pantheon Thunder Punishment, consumes 1000 million spirit stones, summons the phantom of the Thunder Gods, deals 1000% lightning damage to enemies within a 10000-meter radius, and instantly kills enemies whose level is one major realm lower than the user.]

[Third Trial Reward: +200 Affinity with Raibu]

"The skills rewarded from these trials all cost money."

Jiang Liu glanced at the skill unlocked in the third trial and felt that it wasn't a skill, but rather an invocation of a god!
It looks like it's his skill, but in reality, the 1000 million spirit stones it consumed were for the Thunder Department.

What skill?
It's clearly just summoning a god, but the immortals, wanting to save face, have simply put on a facade of skill.

"Being an immortal is great; you can earn 1000 million spirit stones just by casually casting a lightning bolt."

He thought to himself with a hint of bitterness.

It takes one to kill nearly 1000 monsters to farm 1000 million spirit stones, while the Thunder God only needs to cast a single skill.

hateful!

It's incredibly profitable!

No wonder so many people want to ascend to immortality! (End of Chapter)
