Chapter-3

After completing his meditation and some exercises, John took a refreshing bath and had a simple meal, as he had invested all his money in the stock market. With a few minutes left until the stock market's opening, he grabbed a small notepad and carefully jotted down the names of the companies he intended to trade with. It was going to be a day of buying, selling, and longing stocks.

As the clock struck 6:30, John eagerly logged into the trading software. His eyes widened with amazement as he saw the price of the company he had invested in had surged nearly tenfold and was still climbing. He knew he had to act quickly.

After just ten minutes, the company's stock reached its market cap, and John wasted no time. He swiftly withdrew all his money, having earned 50 times the amount he initially invested. In the end, he had made nearly 100 million dollars, and while he had to pay a 1% processing fee for the trading and another 1% to the bank for the leverage, he still walked away with a hefty 98 million dollars.

His remarkable success didn't go unnoticed. His trading account was promoted to the coveted master level, as he had earned more than 50 million dollars in a single transaction. This promotion allowed him to take leverage up to 500 times the original amount.

John didn't rest on his laurels. He put all his money to work, investing in various companies and utilizing the maximum 500 times leverage for intra-day trading. By the end of the day, he had amassed nearly 5 billion dollars in profit.

But John wasn't just focused on accumulating wealth. He continued with his meditation techniques and regular exercises to improve his physical strength. Day by day, he inched closer to reaching the peak of the first stage, a feat that would typically take years or even decades for others to achieve.

As the weeks passed, John's fortune grew exponentially. By the end of the week, he had accumulated more than 50 billion dollars, yet he hadn't withdrawn a single dollar from the trading software. The AI-run platform provided a level of anonymity that even the government couldn't penetrate, keeping his transactions and earnings hidden from prying eyes.

John decided it was time to secure his wealth. He planned to withdraw some money and establish his own bank, where he could store his vast fortune away from public scrutiny. This way, no one would be able to access his accounts without his permission.

With his wealth steadily increasing and his mastery of the first stage of power well within reach, John laid out his plans. He intended to stay in his current apartment until he reached the pinnacle of the first stage, and then he would relocate to City A, where he would set his grander ambitions into motion.

Two months had passed since John's rebirth, and his progress had been nothing short of astonishing. He had reached the peak of the first stage a month earlier and had just broken through to the second stage. However, he soon learned that on this planet, cultivation could only reach the third stage according to the world's rules. Fortunately, this restriction didn't concern him much, as no one had even crossed the first stage, and many remained stuck in the first peak stage due to the lack of a proper meditation technique.

In these two months, John's wealth had soared to over 300 billion dollars through his successful trading endeavors. He had also been promoted to a master-gold rank in his trading software, granting him the privilege of taking leverage up to 600 times and storing any amount of money in his account. However, if he wanted to use his vast fortune, he needed to transfer it to other banking accounts.

On this day, he withdrew 300 million dollars, splitting it between two bank accounts, each holding 150 million dollars. His plan was to relocate to City-A. John had established one of the finest online real estate agencies and intended to purchase a villa in an upscale area, ensuring peace and security.

He swiftly acquired a luxurious villa in one of the city's most prestigious neighborhood for 100 million dollars. With the deal finalized, all he needed was to visit the villa community's office and collect the agreement copy.

John packed his belongings, deciding to carry only some clothes and his trusty old laptop and mobile phone to City-A. He also needed to apply for citizenship in his new home, a straightforward process requiring proof of property ownership and his current identification. Within a mere 10 minutes, he had obtained his new citizenship.

John had no intention of selling his first house; it held sentimental value for him. Leaving his apartment building behind, he hailed a taxi to the airport. He paid the fare through his mobile and proceeded to purchase a first-class ticket to City-A, savouring the experience as it was his first time flying in such luxury. 

Upon landing in City-A, John faced a stricter immigration procedure than he had encountered in City-F. Nonetheless, he navigated it successfully, and then called for a taxi to take him to the villa community office, where he collected his key card and various documents. Despite his simple attire, the office staff treated him with respect.
