#257 - Chapter 257: Using the Longevity Fruit to Drain

At this moment, Shen Xingyan, feeling a bit cheerful, immediately placed 50 kilograms of perfect + quality peonies in the counter for a trial run.

He directly set the price of the peonies at a flat rate of 120 silver coins per kilogram, almost on par with the sold-out price in the Xingyuan Mall.

For the purpose of quickly recovering funds, Shen Xingyan did not consign all of his peonies here, but decided to sell the other 500 kilograms of peonies directly to Xingyuan Mall at a price of 80 silver coins per kilogram.

Although this might seem like a loss in the short term, sacrificing a lot of gold coins, if viewed from a long-term perspective, extracting Origin Energy into the real world sooner would accelerate the progress of his 'Force of Balance,' thereby allowing him to acquire attributes faster.

The value of these attribute points far outweighs the current losses.

“I wonder if these peonies used for the trial run can be sold? And how long will it take to sell them?

If the final payment time isn't too long, then I can reluctantly wait a little longer; more gold coins mean more Origin Energy points extracted. I still need to grasp the degree in between.”

Shen Xingyan nodded slightly, thinking this in his heart, but didn't pay much attention, only waiting for the final result to appear before making a judgment.

Then, he slowly walked out of the general store and onto the street outside.

At this time, what was in front of him, rather than a street, was actually just a slightly wider path. The number of professionals walking on the path was surprisingly as scarce as people in a market in the real world.

Such a situation is unique within the safe zone, which has a large base of professionals, which shows how remote it is.

When some professionals passed by Shen Xingyan's place, they stopped with interest after seeing the sign 'There is a General Store,' but didn't even bother to take a look, and continued walking forward.

After all, from the outside, Shen Xingyan's general store had nothing outstanding except for its name, and even gave people a feeling of disgust at first glance.

Regarding this, Shen Xingyan could only shake his head with a wry smile, knowing in his heart that if he wanted to attract more people to buy things and increase the speed of his efficient fund recovery, he really needed to have some unique features!

With this thought in mind, he strolled around a bit and found that many of the shops on the street were closed. Occasionally, there were a few that were open, but they were empty.

He guessed that the owners of these shops had the same idea as him, trying their luck and placing items that weren't in a hurry to sell there, waiting for a destined person, while also peacefully acting as absentee owners.

However, Shen Xingyan was different from them. They might be truly lazy, but Shen Xingyan really didn't have the time.

With the time spent watching over the sale of things, he didn't know how many attribute points he could have already increased!

And from the perspective of acquisition channels, there was also a difference between them.

Shen Xingyan's shop was a reward from the Xingyuan World, while their shops were all purchased with heavy money and special props. In comparison, they seemed to be squandering.

And Shen Xingyan, who didn't know much about this, had a general psychological expectation in his heart after observing the shops on the entire street, and at the same time, he was even more certain of his own ideas.

After returning to the general store, Shen Xingyan directly took out the Longevity Fruit and placed it in the most conspicuous place on the shelf, while setting it to viewing mode and applying a key protection function to it.

“Using the Longevity Fruit to attract traffic involves a certain risk. After all, my Longevity Tree was announced to the world some time ago. That person will inevitably associate it. For the sake of prudence, I have to disguise myself three times when I come here next time.”

Shen Xingyan thought this in his heart, and at the same time, set the store's long-term business hours and turned on the reminder function after a successful sale, before taking out the key and returning directly to the professional space.

After selling all the remaining peonies to Xingyuan Mall, he also obtained 40 gold coins.

Regarding these gold coins, Shen Xingyan only admired them for a moment before spending them all without any hesitation, and at the same time, he extracted 4 Origin Energy points into the real world.

He looked at Wangcai and the others, who were still easily dealing with the fierce attacks, nodded with relief, and then stopped staying any longer, directly 'going offline' in place, and his consciousness returned to the real world.

At this time, Shen Xingyan, whose consciousness had returned to his body, was not in a hurry to stand up, but opened his attribute panel and looked at his Origin Energy attribute column.

After seeing that the Origin Energy attribute had already reached 54/54, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth:

“Now I have an Origin Energy limit of 54 points. When I use the Perception skill this afternoon, my Comprehension value will increase by 27 points.

Compared to yesterday, the Comprehension value has increased by another 2 points. Today's skill growth rate should increase by a large margin again!”

Shen Xingyan became increasingly satisfied with the current rate of improvement of the 'Force of Balance.'

Then, he didn't continue to 'stay in bed,' directly teleporting to the underground training room, and the movements of the 'Force of Balance' were also displayed, and his whole person was immersed in a kind of charm.

But what he didn't know while he was exercising was that his 'There is a General Store' in the Xingyuan World was welcoming its first customer at this time.

On the remote street, a second-generation young master from Base No. 3 was strolling around the street, enjoying his leisurely time.

When he saw the name and appearance of 'There is a General Store,' he, who was used to seeing all kinds of high-end places, also felt it was interesting, and then walked in directly.

After seeing that there was no one inside, he was also used to it. After all, the shop had this kind of privilege, and the shop owner wouldn't use it for nothing.

Just as he was listlessly scanning the shelves, preparing to continue strolling, his body suddenly froze in place.

Item: Longevity Fruit (Perfect +)

Value: For viewing only

Quantity: 1

Attribute: After consumption, the user can increase their lifespan by 2.46 years. Undead can increase their soul origin by 2.46 stars (sharing is ineffective).

Note: A fruit condensed from Xingyuan power and life force, with infinite effects.

“Longevity... Longevity Fruit? A fruit that can increase lifespan by 2.46 years, how... how could it appear here?” The second-generation young master felt like his whole body was exploding at this moment.

Then, he subconsciously pounced on it, but was bounced back by a layer of diaphragm, which made him feel a little pain, and at the same time, he instantly woke up.
