The Strongest Businessman 10 Chapter 10: Cosmic God

On the first page, the introduction of the manual has been written:

" I, Cosmic God, known to be the Conqueror of Galaxies, crowned strongest among my peers, roamed the cosmos and developed the ultimate technique. I used rivers of time as my water, the vast space as my earth, grasped heaven and earth with nothing but my hands, and used galaxies as commodities for my own business. All others bowed down before me for I am supreme, endless, and invincible."

The words written in the manual was extremely overbearing and exuded a true expert's dominance. He used time as his drinking water, used space as his stepping grounds, and used galaxies as commodities?! How amazing was that? What was overbearing? This was overbearing!

The words contained a vast and mighty aura far superior than anything he has felt before. He was overwhelmed by this but he gritted his teeth and quietly endured. Just the faint aura was enough for him to feel suffocated. "I need to endure it" he thought relentlessly. He advanced one more page and prepared himself for another wave of mighty residual energy left behind by the Cosmic God. He needed to endure but he just can't.

Just a single page was already terrifying. The illumination of the characters within the page was blinding. His body had the impulse to close the book.

"No if I crumble in the face of a single page, how am I able to become the strongest in this world?!" He roared and he forcefully opened his eyes. He has finally seen the characters written within:

"Making the stars and galaxies of the heavens to obey my every command, the earth will crumble with a single wave of my hand, the vast space will bend and the rivers of time will halt according to my will. In my presence, millions of warriors will kneel. Nothing will be able to stop my dominance and in the Peak of the Cosmos I will eternally stand!!!"

Those words reverberated in his mind. It overwhelmed him with overbearing aura. His body absorbed vast amounts of natural energy but it was not in a noticeable manner. The absorption was subtle as though the flow of natural energy just changed directions.

In a hall of a palace far away from Soaring Cloud City, an elderly man noticed something different.

"What was that!" The elderly man noticed.

"Oh, the natural energy flow just changed. There is nothing to be worried about the sudden change in the natural energy flow. It happens every month. Although it happened just a bit earlier, there has been many instances of early change in energy flow throughout the history of the kingdom lest in my time in the throne, there has been several times that it happened." The middle aged man reminisced as he sat in his throne with six different colored gems on the top.

From what he said, he seems to imply that he is a king. With the royal robe with 6 colors and a crown of six gems, these two things can only be in the possession of the King of the Six Mystical States.

"Calm down, Chancellor Merkel" the King said.

"You are right, Your Majesty. I was being paranoid. But I felt an extremely powerful aura in a moment. Maybe I was just being overthinking, Your Majesty. Please forgive the insolence of this humble servant." Chancellor Merkel apologized.

"There is no need for that. You are my trusted aid. It's okay." the King smiled.

"I am unworthy of your compliment, Your Majesty." Chancellor Merkel bowed.

"How is the Competition? Is it going per schedule?" the King inquired.

"It is going per schedule, sir. Half a year from now, it will begin and we will be able to find the man that will be able to heal Princess Elizabeth." Chancellor Merkel answered.

"Hopefully" the King prayed. It was unknown whether what he said was an answer or just a thought that slipped through his mind. His eyes wandered off in midair as though he was in deep thought.

Back in the Gardenford Restaurant, a young man was sitting crossed legged and was silently absorbing energy from his surroundings. In his mindscape, he was experiencing extreme pain as though he was being bended and warped to another place. Then, suddenly the excruciating pain stopped.

Feeling better from the numbing pain he just felt, he opened his eyes as he saw an unfamiliar place. Then, he saw a young boy who cultivated day and night. He experienced and past through countless of storms. He got unceasingly stronger as he trampled countless geniuses under his feet. He became so strong that he could conquer galaxies.

This man was devilishly handsome and a perfectly engineered body. He was a man that countless women would have sought for even the most peerless beautiful maiden would fall in love in first sight of him. He had a distinct feature to him and it was his silver white haired and space black eyes. The two may seem in contrast but they strangely complimented each other in a captivating manner. He was the true epitome of handsomeness.

In his peak, he conquered countless of galaxies and immortal empires. He never made a sect but he had thousands of allies. Each one was the strongest in each of their respective homelands. He even went and sold the galaxies he conquered that he found boring to countless powers. His supreme dominance was displayed to those who were evil as he vanquished them from existence. He was also extremely interested into business as he made different types of businesses to pass his time.

"Could.. he be... the Cosmic God?" Dylan doubted. He was unsure why he was seeing the legend of such a great person. But the deeds he had done was inscribed in the introduction of the "Cosmic God's Business of Galaxies". But in truth he was shocked by what he saw such might was the thing he wanted to achieve.

The scene changed as it unfolded another scene in his eyes.

"Wait... Isn't that the MANSION?!" With the appearance of the mansion now he was more than certain that the legend of the person he witnessed was none other than the Cosmic God.

Not only did the mansion it was a hundred times bigger than what it was in his mind. It was much more grand and extravagant. The pillars were much more refined, the flowers were much more exquisite, everything was better. It felt like the upgraded version of the mansion.

"I guess it should be named the Cosmic God Mansion then, shouldn't it?" Dylan decided to name the mansion this way to commemorate the previous owner of the mansion, Cosmic God.

"I wonder if the mansion would look like this if I am able to unlock it." He mumbled to himself.

In the Cosmic God Mansion, Cosmic God with his comrades were enjoying a banquet. Cosmic God was holding two beauties comparable to Princess Elizabeth, no, they were even more beautiful and enchanting compared to Princess Elizabeth. But of course, Princess Elizabeth is still young. She may even surpass this two once she reaches maturity. Just from this scene alone, one could see that Cosmic God had multiple wives. He had two more wives that was in his back and occasionally talking and laughing with him.

"Hahaha, I never would have expected that Cosmic God was a womanizer." Dylan laughed.

The banquet had also sorts of exquisite and delicious delicacies, beverages and fruits. The food filled all the way to the end of that one hundred meter long pure gold long table. Even the chairs were made of pure gold. Not only was it pure gold, it had countless jewelries decorated all over the table and chairs. Cosmic God having conquered countless galaxies looted unimaginable wealth, Dylan could just imagine how wealthy Cosmic God was.

"I would be rich if I could sell just a single one of those. It would be so good to be that rich." Dylan'sbusinessman instinct kicked in and felt dismal because he knew he was unqualified to enter the mansion yet.

"Oh, how Heavens is playing tricks on me" Dylan complained. But he consoled himself because he knew he would be the one in possession of such a treasure in the future and he also knew with his strength having such a treasure would only bring him his own impending doom.

Suddenly, a long explosion was heard outside of the mansion occurred.

*BOOOOOM!!!*

Shocked by this, Cosmic God and his comrades quickly got out of the mansion.

Outside, an army of cultivators that was millions in numbers readied for battle. There were 8 distinguishable figures in front. Each one of them exuded an aura that was stronger than Cosmic God. When they sighted the Cosmic God exiting the mansion, they immediately charged to him and locked him down.

The Cosmic God's companions tried to provide assistance to him but to no avail, the millions of cultivators blocked them and started charging towards them. They were outnumbered by approximately 1000 to 1. The four peerlessly beautiful wives of Cosmic God were also preoccupied by the hindrance of four God level beasts. Although they wanted to help their beloved, they needed to defeat these 4 beasts.

A war that shook the Cosmos occurred. The battle lasted for days. The millions were reduced to one hundred thousand but Cosmic God's allies were thoroughly depleted of their energy reserves. They could only resort to self-destruction that reduced the numbers of enemies to ten thousands. Their loyalty and friendship that they shared with Cosmic God was until the death. Such strong bonds were truly envious.

The four wives already killed their god level beast opponents but were blocked by the remnants of the army. Since they were also depleted of their energy reserves, they could only resort to self-destruction that killed over twenty thousand cultivators. The army remaining was only ten thousand cultivators while the 8 strongest figures was only 4. Slaying four stronger opponents while being sieged by eight would be an almost impossible to task to do. Such terrifying and tyrannical strength was amazing.

At his last moments, Cosmic God looked elsewhere. The army did not notice peculiarity from the actions of the Cosmic God and thought that it was just him surveying them but Dylan thought differently because he felt or more like he knew that the Cosmic God was staring at him.

The Cosmic God's lips moved slightly as it transmitted... towards Dylan?! But, the army did not thought of this peculiar; they even thought he was using a last resort skill incantation so they prepared themselves as they changed.

The words that were transmitted to Dylan were:

"Successor... Avenge my comrades.... my wives... and me."

Dylan was shocked because Cosmic God was able to transmit a message to him even though they were eras apart but on further thought, it does make sense because Cosmic God can bend and halt space and time according to his will.

Cosmic God burned his life force and ignited his cultivation to raise his strength to an unprecedented level. He knew he could only maintain this strength for a brief moment so he focused everything he had in one slash of his sword. Seeing this, the army hastened their advance with the lead of the four great experts and struck out their strongest attack. He used that one strike to eradicate his opponents but caused him to dissipate at the same time.

"BAAAAAANNNGGG!!!!"

Cosmic God killed all of his opponents but died in the explosion because he did not have even a scrap of energy left so he was vaporized by his own attack.

The attack caused Dylan to feel a moment of excruciating pain but after a while the pain slowly faded as he slowly opened his eyes.

The entire experience might have felt long but it was only a little over 10 minutes that passed in the real world. With the sun shining, he looked up to the clear blue sky and swore.

"Master, Disciple will do his best to avenge you and everyone you loved and cared" Dylan clasped his hands and bowed. He kowtowed three times to acknowledge Cosmic God as his Master. He looked in the sky and a resolute glint appeared in his eyes.

"To become the strongest!"
