Chapter 111: Sowing seeds for future harvest
"Bank of Eternal Origin." David slowly extended his fingers and tried to touch the golden letters floating in front of him.
However, in the next moment, David's hands just passed through the window without touching anything.
David suddenly wanted to laugh at his own actions. What was he even trying to do?
The window had suddenly reminded him of his previous life; some long-forgotten memories appeared in his head out of nowhere in fragments.
David shook his head to get rid of unnecessary thoughts, and in the next moment, he began to instruct the Green Heaven web.
The first thing that he needed to do was to set up rules and regulations for loan disbursals.
After doing that, he set up an entirely different section to sell coffee and other things that he might like to add in the future.
After a couple of back-and-forths, he added them both to his profile.
If anyone clicked on his name on the rankings, they would also be able to access both these pages.
David also realized the importance of having a ranking on the list; his rank would definitely attract a large number of eyeballs to the page.
Next, he flicked his wrists, and a bottle filled with green emerald pills appeared in front of him.
These were the Emerald Serpent Vitality Pills cooked by Sebastian. Now these pills almost had no effect on him. No matter how many pills he took, his Spiritual Space barely grew by a few centimeters; at this point, they were just not worth it.
But that didn't mean they were useless.
Water continued to pour on his body, but David paid no heed to it, right now was he was deep in thought.
Next moment, David's eyes flashed with a strange light; he already had an idea of what he was going to do with the remaining Emerald Serpent Vitality Pills.
In the next moment, he clicked on his friend list.
And started to write a simple-looking message, in not too flowery or arrogant wording.
"I am honored by the fact that the seniors acknowledged me..." As David spoke, the exact same words appeared on the message in real-time.
"...Please! Accept this small gift from this junior."
He sent the message with those words, and a strange smile appeared on his face.
Along with the message, the bottle filled with Emerald Serpent Vitality Pills also disappeared.
Witnessing the sudden disappearance of the bottle, David wasn't surprised as this was one of the features available to only the top hundred cultivators on the ranking.
From this feature alone, one could deduce how much Green Heaven Web wanted the cultivators to cooperate with each other and reach greater heights.
Maybe all these efforts of Green Heaven Web were for giving birth to a new saint similar to the Green Heaven Saint of the past.
While David was busy pondering about the Green Heaven Web's purpose, in an unknown corner of the Green Heaven World, a youth almost naked was sitting on a giant stone beside a lake shore.
The lake was huge, surrounded by sky-piercing mountains from all sides. It was surprising how the the young man managed to get here.
It looked to be a crater-type lake formed by a meteor impact in the past; the lake water was pristine blue with not a hint of impurities in it.
In the youth's hands was a giant fish more than five feet in length and almost transparent in color.
If it weren't for the fish vigorous struggle as it tried to free itself from the young man's grasp, it would be difficult to notice it's presence.
This fish was one of the rare fish in Green Heaven World, the Supreme Enlightenment Clearhaven Fish.
Eating it raw can help a cultivator clear his mind and increase the chances of entering an enlightenment state without any issue.
The young man was none other than the Bearer of Azure Light.
Now that his body was no longer covered in Azure light, it was easier to notice his physical appearance.
His looks were average with a normal build; he almost looked like a countryside bumpkin, with long brown hair that danced wildly in the air.
Below the young man's feet, the mountainous stone started to show clear signs of melting due to the heat that he released unconsciously.
Without wasting any more time, the Bearer of Azure Light swallowed his saliva and took a big bite.
His razor-sharp teeth ripped the flesh apart from the fish's body, and a burst fresh blood dyed his face red.
Chomp! Chomp!
"So tasty," he moaned in pleasure. Just after entering his mouth, the flesh instantly melted and turned into a stream of energy before slowly rushing toward his head.
In the next moment, the Bearer of Azure Light closed his eyes and focused; now was his time to concentrate.
Slowly, the world around him slowed down; everything moved at a snail's pace. Even though he was still holding the fish in his hands, his complete focus was on the world around him.
Slowly, the concepts that he found difficult to understand became easy in his head.
The state lasted for half an hour; in this half an hour, he made rapid progress and surpassed rank ten. His ranking, which was pushed to eleventh because of Ruby, was claimed once again.
After opening his eyes, the first thing he did was enter the Green Heaven Web and check his ranking.
[Here's a ranking of all Foundation Building Realm cultivators.

Zefyr finally sighed with relief, and when his eyes landed on Rank 3, he couldn't stop himself from frowning again.
This monster had suddenly popped out of nowhere and claimed the third rank for himself.
Whatever! It had nothing to do with him.
Just as he was about to exit Green Heaven Web, his eyes landed on the bottles of pills floating in the dark space.
