I've seen people beg for money, but I've never seen anyone beg to give money away. The chief, experienced as he was, had never encountered such an oddity as Fang Jueyu before.
But judging from his demeanor, it was clear he wasn't joking. After confirming multiple times, the chief decided to accept Fang Jueyu's goodwill.
Fang Jueyu handed over the prepared source code to the chairman. This particular source code wasn't encrypted, while the one used in that game was encrypted. As long as he didn't want to, no one could access the core code of this technology.
As for those financial transactions, Fang Jueyu eagerly transferred the funds. Acquiring Ma Teng's shares cost 200 billion US dollars, constructing the servers cost over 100 billion US dollars, and this time he spent over 300 billion US dollars. In just a few days, Fang Jueyu spent more than 600 billion US dollars, and his available funds finally dwindled to less than 200 billion US dollars!
When Fang Jueyu saw this thrilling string of numbers, he couldn't help but shed tears of joy. After much effort, he had finally completed a significant part of this mission.
During the acquisition of Ma Teng's shares a few days ago, Fang Jueyu made a big splash, greatly increasing the completion of his first-stage permission mission. Now, the completion rate was as high as 77%.
"Xiao Yi, submit the large task!" The previous incident with Gu Yi still left a shadow in his heart, and he was afraid that an unexpected situation might conjure up a few billion US dollars again, wasting all his recent hard efforts to spend money.
"Evaluating the task, completion rate 69.7%, reward first-stage permission mission completion 23.23%!"
"First-stage mission completed, now unlocking level one permissions!"
"Holy crap!" Fang Jueyu cheered. He couldn't believe his luck at just barely completing the permission unlock task for the first stage!
"Hahahaha!" A burst of laughter, like that of a fool, suddenly came from the villa.
"Quick, quick, Xiao Yi, tell me, what features does this level one permission unlock?" Fang Jueyu asked impatiently.
"There's quite a lot! The first three chapters of the Potential Guiding Technique are fully unlocked, and your ancestors have left many aids for practicing the Guiding Technique, which will surely surprise you."
"Fantastic!" Fang Jueyu clenched his fist, as from now on, he would no longer have to rely on Gu Yi all the time; he could handle it himself from now on!
"And? Can I contact my parents now?"
"Of course you can. I left a subsystem in each host. Although it only has one-tenth of my functionality, it's still powerful enough. I can contact those subsystems anytime."
"Does that mean I can contact my grandfather, my grandfather's grandfather, and all my ancestors?"
"Exactly!" Xiao Yi said, "Host, you might not know, but all the hosts from 99 generations ago are still alive and well!"
"What? They're all still alive?" Fang Jueyu was shocked. If anyone were to see their ancestors from a hundred generations ago one day, they'd probably be too scared to sleep, right?
"How is this strange?" Xiao Yi scoffed, "Once you've trained to the third chapter of the Potential Guiding Technique and become a Divine Ability User, your lifespan will be extraordinarily long. Living past 2,000 years is a breeze."
"The Potential Guiding Technique has nine chapters in total, and theoretically, once all nine are mastered, you can even achieve infinite life. My first host nearly mastered the seventh chapter and lived for hundreds of thousands of years without issue."
"Amazing!" No adjective could match the straightforwardness of those two words.
"Xiao Yi, help me contact my parents? It's been months, and I really miss them."
"Sure! But it might take a few minutes, so in the meantime, you can check out the features unlocked by level one permission." Xiao Yi directly uploaded a stream of information into Fang Jueyu's brain.
There were indeed numerous permissions at this stage. Besides the Potential Guiding Technique, there was a wealth of resources and even a lot of high-tech information. Previously, Fang Jueyu had to beg for these from his ancestors, but now the databases of the first few levels of civilizations were fully unlocked.
Any one of these items could change the world, and making a fortune was only a matter of time. No wonder the Fang Family's ancestors could easily accumulate such a vast enterprise.
However, the Potential Guiding Technique was the most valuable. It was a culmination of countless intelligent civilizations' wisdom, capable of fundamentally changing organisms for rapid evolution and enhancement.
The universe was filled with an invisible energy known as Cosmic Source Energy in the Potential Guiding Technique. Ordinary humans couldn't utilize this energy, but it was omnipresent.
Those deemed superpower users were modified by Cosmic Source Energy either innately or through acquired means, thus gaining extraordinary capabilities.
Hidden Elementers and Source Energy Users differed, as they autonomously absorbed Cosmic Source Energy, strengthening their genes and unlocking tremendous power, which was why the disparity in power between superpower users and Hidden Elementers was so vast.
Under normal circumstances, feeling the existence of Cosmic Source Energy was immensely challenging for a person, but that applied only to ordinary people. The Fang Family's ancestors had long resolved this issue.
"Is it this red pill?" In Fang Jueyu's private space was now a mountain of pills accumulated by his ancestors over millennia.
The red pill, called the Gathering Energy Pill, gathered vast amounts of Cosmic Source Energy nearby. Although it couldn't be directly absorbed, it allowed one to perceive its presence more easily and intuitively.
Fang Jueyu swallowed it in one gulp, and the pill dissolved in his stomach, sending a warm sensation throughout his body, especially his eyes, which suddenly emitted a peculiar purple glow.
"Is this the Cosmic Source Energy?" Fang Jueyu observed an array of dark purple light dots around him, akin to countless specks of dust floating nearby.
The method for practicing the Potential Guiding Technique was now automatically stored in Fang Jueyu's brain, and he began trying to absorb these dark purple light dots following this method.
When the first light dot began merging with his cells, an incredibly euphoric sensation nearly sent Fang Jueyu into a blissful trance—it was like a leap in the level of life itself!
Unknowingly, he entered a profound mystical state, and his body grew stronger in a manner imperceptible to the naked eye.
"Hey, hey, hey? Furry son? What are you doing? Ignoring us now?" Xiao Yi had somehow already connected to the subsystem left with Fang Huai, and a holographic projection appeared before Fang Jueyu.
These were two figures Fang Jueyu was deeply familiar with, his father Fang Huai and his mother Cao Lan. They were on a fascinating planet, one full of futuristic vibes, and both Fang Huai and Cao Lan wore clothes quite different from Earth's style.
"What are you yelling about? Try yelling at my son again and see what happens?" Cao Lan smacked Fang Huai on the head, "Don't you see our son is practicing the Potential Guiding Technique? If you wake him and something happens, I swear I'll beat you!"
Fang Huai clutched his head with a look of grievance, as his status in this household seemed to progressively decline.
"Let's wait. We're in no hurry."
"But the owner of Scatter Planet invited us to dinner tonight," Fang Huai said.
"Let him wait! Two-thirds of their planet's industries belong to our Fang Family. If he dares to complain, we'll cut off their energy imports from other planets next year!"
