I’ll make up for what you lose elsewhere—what do you think?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, Yan Qi displayed a skill book.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its name was Summoning Contract Basic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a subclass of Contract Basic, similar to the difference between Chu Danqing’s former Summoning and Paleobiology Summoning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Danqing thought briefly, then nodded: “Fine.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet inwardly he felt resigned—he had indeed once hoped to obtain a Contract Basic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But hoping was one thing; his economic strength didn’t allow it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, since it had come to him, Chu Danqing didn’t hesitate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, finding one himself would cost even more, and this Summoning Contract Basic suited him better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least it was related to Summoning, not purely Contract—upgrading it wouldn’t cross systems.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now for the Spirit Beast Codex—I’ll trade you an Excellent-tier Summoning skill. What do you say?” Yan Qi said, pulling out another skill book.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After checking its attributes, Chu Danqing nodded in agreement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The skill was called Crimson Pact. Its effect: when the user’s HP drops, summon creatures gain +1% to all five stats per 2% HP lost, stacking up to 10 times. Simple and unadorned, yet pure numerical power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was exactly the skill Chu Danqing needed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“For the rest of these items, I’ll trade you an Excellent-tier Summoning Spirit Gear. The surplus value will cover your Talent Book,” Yan Qi said immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Chu Danqing didn’t hesitate—he completed the transaction at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Judging from these three items, Yan Qi had clearly put in effort—he must have paid a heavy price to acquire them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By the way, one thing to warn you: after you complete the assimilation, the spirit beast and you will share fortune and misfortune—if it dies, you’ll suffer backlash,” Chu Danqing reminded him afterward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What if it gets severed mid-bond?” Yan Qi’s eye twitched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No need to worry. Armor Spirit Beasts have one trait: extreme resilience. You can repair it afterward,” Chu Danqing said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The drawback was unavoidable, but Armor Spirit Beasts were built for brute force—there were plenty of ways to compensate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, weapons could be destroyed too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, I get it. Feels like I got the worse end,” Yan Qi sighed, but inside he was nearly ecstatic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What’s this? Some sword cultivators are even more extreme—they live or die with their swords.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet they still charge around stabbing people with flying swords.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Heaven-Defying Tyrant Spear’s upper limit is Excellent-tier, but Yan Qi’s ceiling isn’t just Rank 1—he’s confident he can raise it higher.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More importantly, the Paradise system classified the Armor Spirit Beast as both Gear and Permanent Summon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That means he gains not only the gear’s stat bonuses, but also the Armor Spirit Beast’s feedback, plus the 10% bonus from his Talent: Purple Mansion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Effectively, one piece of gear provides three types of effects simultaneously, with a sentient spirit that protects its master and fights autonomously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t think he couldn’t see the flaws—if he keeps reinforcing the Heaven-Defying Tyrant Spear through forging, strengthening, and enchanting, he can make it one of his core systems.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he got all these benefits with zero flaws, Yan Qi would worry Chu Danqing was tricking him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Qi left immediately. Chu Danqing then notified the next buyer: the agent and the Longhu Alliance’s Rank 1 regional manager.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During this process, Chu Danqing learned the skills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>——\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Summoning Contract Basic: LV.MAX】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Skill Effect: Increases summon creature intimacy by 10%, increases summon contract strength by 10%】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>——\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Crimson Pact (Passive) LV.1: For every 2% HP lost, summon creatures gain +1% to all stats (stacks up to 10 layers)】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>——\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Ring of the Spirit Princess】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Type: Gear · Ring】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Quality: Excellent】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Durability: 100\u002F100】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Mana +10000】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Spirit’s Radiance (Active): Consume 10% mana and 1 unrepairable durability point to grant yourself and all summons 3 seconds of invincibility.

The original Blood Oath Pact had both Contract and Summon attributes; though later refined, it seems even better suited now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Looks more suited for allies—I’ll check later if other skills can be built to complement it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Still, I spent heavily—I only have 7,000 Paradise Points left.” Chu Danqing’s eye twitched, but luckily, for the Spirit Beast Codex: Jade Spirit Dragon set, he’d specified he wanted Paradise Points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, he wouldn’t have had enough to upgrade his skills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This set could easily fetch 100,000 Paradise Points plus five Excellent-tier items.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The most valuable item was the Talent Book: Purple Mansion—alone, it was worth at least three to four Excellent-tier items.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s why they were willing to trade with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Talent Books and Basic Skills occupy the same status—only suitability matters, no depreciation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They are strategic items that retain value.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>About ten minutes later, the agent arrived with a woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hello, you can call me Mei Zheng. Could you show me the attributes again?” the woman introduced herself and asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing she wanted to inspect the goods, Chu Danqing didn’t hide anything—he displayed everything openly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Complete set. Acceptable for trade,” Mei Zheng confirmed immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By the way, I was referred by Qingchi,” Chu Danqing said, recalling he’d been told he could get a referral bonus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Qingchi?” Mei Zheng frowned, then opened the Longhu Alliance faction panel to check: “Ah, a Reserve-level regional manager.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He’s currently on a trial mission—he won’t be able to give you the bonus in time. If you don’t mind, I’ll just add the bonus directly,” Mei Zheng said at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Danqing’s expression turned odd: “Talking about referral bonuses so bluntly—isn’t that inappropriate?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mei Zheng explained: “No issue at all. Longhu Alliance isn’t some small faction—it’s an official rule.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“All major factions have this rule. The Paradise encourages it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We don’t lack these resources. If you survive and later acquire better resources, come back to us—we all benefit.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just one Basic Skill or Talent Book can bring a powerful member into a faction, whose future returns far outweigh the initial investment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, if you’re short-sighted, the Paradise will correct your desire to grow stronger by exploiting members.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Paradise’s population base is its strategic advantage; to develop it, monopolies, exploitation, and lack of upward mobility are forbidden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only a healthy environment and culture can unleash countless strong individuals from its vast population.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dimensional Apostles’ individual combat power is indeed the lowest among all Paradises—but that doesn’t mean the collective can’t fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, how does the bonus work?” Chu Danqing asked curiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Usually Paradise Points or consumables. I recommend the Excellent-tier potion produced by Longhu Alliance and Life-system Apostles—it restores 100% HP instantly and grants 30 seconds of invincibility.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Many Longhu Alliance members have used it to turn the tide and survive their trials.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Since your items are high-value, I’m giving you this instead of a set of Fine-tier potions,” Mei Zheng said, pulling out the potion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No thanks. I need Paradise Points. Just convert it into points for me,” Chu Danqing refused outright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t lack healing—especially now that Da Bai had three heads, with no-cooldown healing skills and Level 3 Multicast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His healing speed was like a Gatling gun—if Da Bai were a spellcaster instead of a support, Da Gu wouldn’t even be relevant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mei Zheng looked slightly surprised—she’d never met anyone who refused—but quickly regained composure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then I can only give you 10,000 Paradise Points,” Mei Zheng said, displaying the trade item: “This is the price you requested. Check what you’d like to exchange.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After carefully reviewing it, Chu Danqing said: “No need. Deal.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1527,"2026-06-20T00:54:41.633Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","3eebcb0c838b58ce3685475df9b33e7442050a53fe5326d7858ed8213070b758","dimension-park-i-am-the-summoning-apostle-chapter-293","dimension-park-i-am-the-summoning-apostle-chapter-291",305,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdimension-park-i-am-the-summoning-apostle-cover.jpg"]
