Chapter 241: Tips for Choosing Numbers! Nationwide Lottery Fever!

After reading the update introduction, all cultivators immediately entered Cloud Flash Pay.

They were filled with anticipation and curiosity about the lottery feature.

One million top-grade spirit stones.

This number was enough to make any cultivator excited.

The homepage of Cloud Flash Pay didn’t change much.

The top still showed the balance and estimated interest, but below the transfer function,

there was a new lottery section.

Everyone eagerly clicked to enter.

At the top of the lottery section, a countdown timer was displayed.

“Countdown to next draw: 23:57:43!”

A quick calculation revealed the draw time was at noon tomorrow.

Below the countdown, there was a “Buy Lottery” button.

Many cultivators immediately clicked the button.

Upon clicking, a purchase popup appeared in front of all the cultivators.

It included an introduction to the lottery gameplay.

Below were ten number input boxes.

Cultivators were drawn to the gameplay introduction.

For two low-grade spirit stones, they could buy one lottery ticket.

They needed to choose ten numbers from one to one hundred.

If all ten numbers matched the drawn numbers, they would win the top prize of one million top-grade spirit stones.

There were also second, third, and fourth prizes.

Even the lowest consolation prize was ten low-grade spirit stones.

Understanding the introduction, all the cultivators were wide-eyed, some even standing up in excitement.

Matching the ten numbers with the drawn numbers to win one million top-grade spirit stones?

That’s too easy!

Even if they didn’t win the top prize,

the second prize of one hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones, the third prize of ten thousand top-grade spirit stones, and the fourth prize of one thousand top-grade spirit stones,

were tempting enough for anyone!

These were life-changing sums for most cultivators.

And now, for just two low-grade spirit stones, they had a chance to win.

In the face of such an opportunity for sudden wealth, no cultivator could remain calm.

Countless low-level cultivators, looking at the huge prize, had their faces flush with excitement.

They were already thinking about how they would spend such a huge sum if they won.

And it wasn’t just the low-level cultivators.

Even the top cultivators in Great Yan Province, including Nascent Soul powerhouses, were excited by the lottery prizes.

One million top-grade spirit stones.

Even for a Deity Transformation powerhouse, it was an astronomical number, let alone for them.

One million top-grade spirit stones would satisfy all their cultivation resource needs for the entire Nascent Soul Realm.

With one million top-grade spirit stones, their cultivation levels would soar.

They could easily buy the top-tier Dao artifacts they couldn’t afford before.

Most importantly, winning this one million top-grade spirit stones didn’t involve any risk.

Just two low-grade spirit stones for a chance to win one million top-grade spirit stones.

It was too easy.

Every cultivator was now attracted by the lottery prizes.

What if they won?

This was the only thought in every Great Yan Province cultivator’s mind.

After calming their excitement, they looked at the number input boxes below the gameplay instructions.

Each of the ten input boxes could hold one number.

On the right side of the input boxes, there was a small random selection button.

Clicking it would randomly fill the input boxes with numbers.

After choosing their numbers, they could click to purchase.

But they could only buy lottery tickets using Cloud Flash Pay.

There was no other option.

This frustrated many cultivators.

After the 2% discount promotion ended, many had withdrawn all their spirit stones from Cloud Flash Pay.

They didn’t trust their spirit stones to be stored elsewhere.

But if they had known about the lottery feature, they wouldn’t have withdrawn their spirit stones.

They would have at least kept some in their Cloud Flash Pay accounts.

Now, they had chosen their numbers but couldn’t place an order.

That’s a potential one million top-grade spirit stones.

If the numbers they thought of were drawn, and they hadn’t bought the ticket, they would regret it for life.

Depositing spirit stones!

Even if it’s just for the lottery, they must keep more spirit stones in their Cloud Flash Pay accounts from now on.

Closing the purchase popup, at the bottom of the lottery section, there was a “My Numbers” section.

It showed the numbers of the tickets they had bought.

If their numbers won, Cloud Flash Pay would notify them directly.

And the winning spirit stones would be credited to their Cloud Flash Pay account within an hour.

No action required.

It was simple and convenient.

Looking further down, at the bottom of the page, there was a live video similar to the Cloud Flash Pay online classes.

The video title was “Live Draw.”

This brightened the eyes of all cultivators.

They had been curious about how the lottery draw would be conducted.

Would the Sacred Land randomly give out ten numbers?

No one expected a live draw.

Everyone immediately clicked to enter.

Although it wasn’t the draw time, the live stream was already active, showing a scene to all the cultivators.

The video showed an immortal mountain, with spiritual energy and birds flying around.

It was a scene of celestial beauty.

At the foot of the mountain, there was a pond.

The pond was clear and transparent.

All the cultivators could see that there were hundreds of Mystic Turtles in the pond, hiding in their shells.

Most of the Mystic Turtles were motionless, a few were turning over.

Two Mystic Turtles were together, doing something strange.

Seeing the Mystic Turtles, everyone was puzzled.

The Heavenly Origin Sacred Land had suddenly started raising Mystic Turtles and even set aside two immortal mountains for them, causing a sensation and curiosity in Great Yan Province.

The price of Mystic Turtles had tripled.

But why were Mystic Turtles shown in the live draw?

What do Mystic Turtles have to do with the lottery?

Curious, they clicked the draw rules in the top right corner of the live stream.

Understanding the draw rules, all the cultivators were stunned…

The Heavenly Origin Sacred Land was using Mystic Turtles for the draw?

Throwing spirit fish at the peak, the first ten Mystic Turtles to reach the peak would determine the draw numbers.

Looking closely, the numbers were clearly engraved on the Mystic Turtles’ backs.

Each Mystic Turtle had a different number on its back.

They were really used for the draw.

At this moment…

countless cultivators across Great Yan Province were both amused and exasperated.

Previously speculating about the Mystic Turtle’s abilities, such as alchemy or divine beast bloodline, turned out to be their own imagination.

Heavenly Origin Sacred Land simply valued the Mystic Turtle’s innate resistance to divination for lottery draws.

Many cultivators who had bought Mystic Turtles were now frustrated.

But the most frustrated ones were undoubtedly the major factions.

They had followed the trend, spending large sums to buy a bunch of Mystic Turtles.

It turned out that Heavenly Origin Sacred Land was just using them for lottery draws.

Now they were stuck with them.

Mystic Turtles were not useful.

Their meat was particularly unpalatable, with a lingering fishy taste.

It was a total loss…

Below the live broadcast room of the lottery draw, there was a familiar barrage input box for the cultivators.

Immediately, countless comments flew across the screen.

“Darn, I bought a total of ten Mystic Turtles. I need to contact the Beast Sect’s customer service to see if I can return them!”

“My divination skills are very powerful. I thought the first prize was within reach and easily calculated it, but I never expected Heavenly Origin Sacred Land to use Mystic Turtles for the draw. It’s simply absurd!”

“Did you see the grand array on the immortal mountain? It’s an anti-divination array. Combined with the Mystic Turtles, no cultivator can deduce the draw numbers, so no one can cheat.”

“Look, number 40 Mystic Turtle has strong limbs. It must be fast. I must include number 40 in my ten numbers…”

“The draw is tomorrow at noon, and those two Mystic Turtles are still doing that. I’m definitely not choosing their numbers. They won’t have the energy to reach the peak tomorrow.”

“No, I think I should buy those two numbers. They’ve exhausted their energy and must be the hungriest. Smelling the spirit fish, they’ll run the fastest!”

“At a glance, I feel number 99 Mystic Turtle is extraordinary…”

“I should buy the ten Mystic Turtles closest to the peak. They have the advantage of proximity.”

“I think you’re all making sense. I’ve decided to buy more tickets to increase my chances of winning.”

In no time, countless cultivators began discussing how to choose numbers in the live broadcast, each with their own seemingly rational ideas.

Even many Nascent Soul Realm experts from major factions were intently watching the Mystic Turtles, contemplating the numbers most likely to win the grand prize.

Many cultivators had already decided on their lottery numbers, showing confident expressions as if the grand prize was within reach.

After the update of the Little Spirit Communicator, Immortal Net Weibo had already exploded.

The word “lottery” undoubtedly topped the trending searches.

Its popularity was through the roof.

“I already bought it! My numbers will definitely win the grand prize. I’ll be checking out mansions in the city center tomorrow.”

“I bought one too. Please, heavens, let me win! My talent is poor, but with a million high-grade spirit stones, I might have a chance to achieve the Nascent Soul Realm.”

“I bought ten tickets directly. I’m not greedy, I just want to win one second prize. That way, I can win back my junior sister.”

“Darn, I also chose my numbers, but I don’t have any spirit stones in my Cloud Flash Pay account because I withdrew them all. I’m going to deposit some now. If I miss out, I’ll regret it for life.”

“Haha, serves you right for not trusting the Heavenly Origin Saint Master and withdrawing your spirit stones. Regret it now, don’t you?”

“Even if you don’t buy lottery tickets, you can still deposit your spirit stones into Cloud Flash Pay. The new random discount feature is very useful. Every payment can get a discount. I just bought a lottery ticket and got it for free, without spending a single spirit stone.”

“I’ve bought four lottery tickets, but each time only got a 0.01 discount. My luck is so bad!”

“I’m really looking forward to the draw tomorrow. I won’t be able to sleep tonight. If I win, I definitely won’t tell anyone and will secretly spend it all…”

The launch of the lottery stirred a huge wave across Great Yan Province.

Countless excited cultivators, feeling that wealth was within reach, hurried to deposit their spirit stones.

Long queues formed in front of the Heavenly Origin Pavilions everywhere…

and the prize pool of the lottery grew rapidly.
