With godlike talent from the start, how did he become invincible?

Chapter 65 Purchasing Property in Sunset City

[Current remaining upgrade points: 33944 - 400 = 33544].

Inside the backpack, 20 ordinary gold coins flashed and transformed into 20 [Purple Gold Coins] that shimmered with a pale purple light.

[Purple Gold Coin]: 20

But this is not the end.

Lin Tian used the [Purple Gold Coin] upgrade again without any cost.

[Ding! This is a free use that increases [Purple Gold Coins] by 20]

[Ding! Upgrade successful! You have obtained 20 Crystals]

The purple-gold coins on the panel then changed to crystal coins [Crystal Coins: 20].

This was the first time Lin Tian had upgraded the currency to this level.

He quietly took out a crystal coin from his backpack and examined it carefully in his palm.

This coin is about the size of a thumbnail, warm to the touch, with a flowing luster inside, radiating a faint energy fluctuation that is refreshing and invigorating.

【Crystal Coins】

[Description: Contains pure energy; absorbing this energy can slowly increase one's attributes, with the effect decreasing as more energy is absorbed.]

Isn't this just like the spirit stones in the world of cultivation?

Lin Tian was slightly startled; he hadn't expected that crystal coins could actually enhance attributes. This was an unexpected discovery; he could try absorbing them after the transaction was completed.

He raised his hand, displaying the dreamlike crystal coin in his palm to Deacon Huangpu Yunhe, his tone calm and unwavering:

"Lord City Lord, may I use this currency for settlement?"

The moment Lin Tian took out the crystal coins, a glint of light flashed in Huangpu Yun's eyes, and for the first time, his face showed undisguised surprise.

He leaned forward slightly, his sharp gaze fixed on the crystal coin in Lin Tian's hand. After a full two seconds, he slowly leaned back in his chair, giving Lin Tian a meaningful look:

"Crystal coins... Of course. I didn't expect you to possess such a rare and advanced currency. According to the common rules on the mainland, 1 crystal coin can be exchanged for 100 purple gold coins or 10000 gold coins, but usually no one uses crystal coins to exchange for gold coins. Are you sure you want to use it to pay?"

"Sure."

Lin Tian nodded, his tone unwavering, and then continued,

"In addition, I need to purchase two housekeepers and six shop assistants to manage the two shops respectively. Please calculate the costs together and deduct them from the payment."

Huangpu Yun looked at the steward beside him.

The butler was already stunned by the appearance of the crystal coins. He only came to his senses when he heard the question and hurriedly calculated: "To purchase two senior butlers and six skilled shop assistants, the total contract fee will be about 1000 gold coins. Since it is a lifetime contract, the price will be higher, while the cost of hiring is much cheaper."

Lin Tian agreed.

Huangpu Yun pondered for a moment, then spoke:

"In that case, the total price of the three properties after the discount is 130500 gold coins, plus the employment fee of 1000 gold coins, for a total of 131500 gold coins."

"You can cover the entire cost by paying 14 crystals, leaving you with 8500 gold coins. Would you like to exchange these remaining 8500 gold coins for regular gold coins or purple gold coins?"

"Exchange them all for purple gold coins," Lin Tian said without hesitation.

Gold coins are no longer cost-effective for him; he can easily upgrade his purple gold coins and turn them into crystal coins.

"Okay." Huangpu Yun nodded to the steward.

The steward suppressed his excitement and carefully stepped forward. He used a specially made velvet cloth to carefully collect and count the fourteen crystal coins, and then counted out 85 purple-glowing [purple gold coins] and handed them to Lin Tian.

Lin Tian then took out the remaining 6 crystal coins.

"Can all six crystal coins be exchanged for purple gold coins?"

"Alright." Huangpu Yun nodded to the steward again.

Lin Tian then handed the remaining 6 crystal coins to the steward, who then counted out another 600 [Purple Gold Coins] and gave them to Lin Tian.

After the transaction was completed, the deacon solemnly handed Lin Tian three antique-looking brass keys, each engraved with runes corresponding to the address:

"Lord Lin Tian, ​​these are the keys to your three properties. Your hired butlers and shop assistants will be in place by noon tomorrow, and they will report directly to their respective shops and residences."

"Thank you for your trouble." Lin Tian took the key, feeling the cool touch of the metal, and felt reassured.

The transaction was complete, and the purpose of this trip had been achieved. Lin Tian stood up and bowed to Huangpu Yun again: "Thank you for your convenience, City Lord. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave."

Huangpu Yun, with a gentle smile on his face, also stood up:

"Go, young man. Sunset City welcomes a strongman like you to settle here. I hope you will create even greater glory on this land in the future. If you encounter any difficulties, you may come to me again."

"I will keep in mind the Lord's words."

Lin Tian cupped his hands in greeting again, then turned and left the study under the guidance of the guards.

Stepping out of the city lord's mansion, the afternoon sun shone brightly, casting a warm golden glow on the magnificent buildings of Luoxia City.

Lin Tian stood on the high steps and took a deep breath of the air of freedom.

Without pausing, he quickly determined the direction and set off, walking briskly towards the west of the city, towards the secluded residence that had just become his, with a sense of eagerness.

His steps were steady and quick, and he had already begun to plan what to do next:

Upgrade the new skill [Explosive Fireball] to test the effect of [Crystal Coins] absorbing attributes.

as well as,

Enjoy this first private space that is entirely yours in the world of battle for supremacy.

Of course.

That old, run-down little place in the starting village doesn't count!

.......

Lin Tian walked briskly through the streets of the western district of Luoxia City. The deeper he went, the quieter the surroundings became.

Unlike the hustle and bustle of the main streets of the city, this area is mostly high-walled courtyards with shady trees, exuding a low-key luxury and tranquility.

His destination was at the end of this street.

A tall blue brick wall encloses a sizable area. Two heavy black lacquered wooden doors, engraved with intricate cloud patterns, are tightly closed. Two stone lions stand solemnly in front of the doors, and above the lintel, an ebony plaque hangs empty, waiting for its owner to name it.

This is his first home in this world.

Lin Tian took out the corresponding brass key, and the ancient runes on the key resonated faintly with the keyhole on the door.

He inserted the key and gave it a gentle twist.

"Click".

With a soft click, the door lock opened.

He pushed open the heavy door, and the view before him suddenly opened up.

Upon entering, one is greeted by a spacious courtyard with a clean and tidy bluestone-paved ground. A few unnamed lush green plants dot the corners, and there is even a small rockery and a small pond with clear water where a few koi carp swim leisurely.

Behind the courtyard stands a magnificent Chinese-style mansion with white walls, black tiles, upturned eaves, and three stories. It is decorated with carved beams and painted rafters, exuding an ancient charm.

He closed the door behind him, shutting out the noise from the outside world, and strolled into the house.
