I Only Wanted to Level Up, but I Became the Richest Person

Mi Li bound herself to a [Spend to Progress] System. Every month, the System gives her a huge amount of spirit stones. As long as she spends them all before the settlement date, her cultivation level will rise. The more she spends, the higher it gets. “Is there really such a great deal? Doesn’t that mean I’ll be breaking through the void in no time?” She took in a beggar woman from the street and spared no expense in cleansing and reshaping her meridians. But the woman turned out to be the former Valley Master of the Medicine God Valley. From then on, Mi Li had a stunning beauty by her side, equally skilled in medicine and poison. She bought a failing general store, expecting to lose money. But it turned out to contain an immortal-grade sword. Once word got out, the store’s unsold goods were snapped up by thousands, and demand far exceeded supply. She took over an ocean-going fleet, determined to lose every last coin this time. Instead, she stumbled upon the [Illusory Sea Secret Realm], which opens once every thousand years. She made a fortune just selling tickets. She bought an entire feudal kingdom, certain it would bankrupt her. Instead, she foiled the schemes of the demonic cultivators and saved a million lives. Mi Li: “System, how about a deal? I’ll give you eight million top-grade spirit stones. Can you help me establish my Foundation?” +++ An Unofficial Little Skit +++ Reporter: For this interview, we’re honored to welcome the most powerful person in the world, the Moonlight Sect Master, Keeper of the Treasure Vault, Chairwoman of the Endtime Merchant Guild, Helmswoman of the Ocean-Crossing Fleet, Founder of the Cloud Spirit Network, Immortal Mi Li. Let’s give her a round of applause. Mi Li: (Awkwardly) You don’t have to say such a long list of titles. Reporter: We hear the sacred beast Dark Phoenix has just completed its ninth rebirth. Congratulations, Immortal. Mi Li: (Pouting) I don’t know it that well. Reporter: Rumor has it that the Poison Doctor Immortal, the Wraith King of the Netherworld, and the Demon Lord of Cold Province have started fighting over you again. Mi Li: (Disdainfully) That has nothing to do with me. Reporter: What about the love confessions from the Sword Venerable Guardian, the Ruined Bladesman, the Furnace of All Things, and the Little Divine Farmer? Mi Li: (Firmly) We’re just friends. Reporter: All right, could you share some cultivation tips with low-level cultivators? Mi Li: I must reiterate. (Seriously) I’m innocent and weak. I only established my Foundation last week. Really. My dream is to keep spending money. Please stop giving me money. Reader’s Guide: Lots of male supporting characters, with one-sided crushes. The heroine shines on her own. Theme: Even when life is difficult, face it with a positive and optimistic attitude~
