Chapter 944

"Can I exchange it for a Stellaron?"

Herta also couldn't help but ask. Just a while ago, she happened to seal a Stellaron.

Now that the Stellaron had been studied and it was boring, if it could be exchanged for spirit stones, it would be considered making the best use of waste.

"Don't even think about it."

Old Yang laughed:

"No matter who you go to, you won't be able to exchange it."

"Cultivators don't recognize the so-called precious treasures in your mouth. If they are not useful for cultivation, they are waste."

"Besides, we don't have many spirit stones ourselves."

"Even if we went to other worlds to loot a wave some time ago, those spirit stones are not enough for us to use for long."

"Cultivators have an endless demand for spirit stones."

"Their own cultivation, setting up array formations, shopping, etc., all cultivators wish they could break one spirit stone into ten."

"Besides, you are not cultivators. Even if you hold spirit stones, they are useless. If you buy things, with your scientific means, you won't be able to research anything."

Seeing the two's firm attitude, the crowd didn't ask any more questions. Old Yang handed them a batch of spirit coins.

"There is still about an hour before the auction starts. You can go shopping."

"These spirit coins are a gift for you. Anyway, they are also circulated outside by our Shushan disciples."

Herta's eyes lit up, and she took them.

"That's so embarrassing. Ruan Mei, go! Let's go shopping!"

"Teacher!"

Asta looked at Herta who had run away without a trace somewhat awkwardly and whispered:

"Sorry, Teacher she..."

"It's okay, go."

Otto said with a smile:

"Keep an eye on them. Although in this auction house, no one dares to make a move even if trouble is caused."

"But cultivators are very vengeful. Once you are targeted, you might be cursed as soon as you go out."

Hearing this, Asta was somewhat worried and left in a hurry after saying goodbye.

Before long, only Otto and Old Yang were left here. Otto glanced at Old Yang and said with a smile:

"You're quite fast."

"Likewise."

Old Yang snorted, looking at Otto with some annoyance.

"If it weren't for the importance of the master's affairs, I would never travel with a guy like you."

"Don't say that, old friend. At least we are now fellow disciples, and I have turned over a new leaf."

"Doesn't Buddhism say, put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot."

Old Yang snorted.

"That's why I don't like Buddhism. And you and I are both cultivators, there's no need to talk nonsense."

"Buddhism is also a character that must be repaid. Putting down the butcher's knife and becoming a Buddha on the spot is just a plaque advertised by the small Buddhist sects in the lower realms."

Otto nodded seriously.

"No problem. Then I will tell Elder Alice that you, Walter, hate Buddhism?"

"Hmph!"

Old Yang was speechless, snorted, and said again:

"Did you see it?"

"Who are you talking about? Herta? Ruan Mei? Or someone else..."

Otto asked casually. Old Yang frowned slightly.

"You don't have to play dumb. I know your plan. If you didn't see it, could you be so friendly to a few mortals?"

Otto smiled and looked at the few people in the distance.

"As expected of the Star Rail universe that the master specifically named. There really are a lot of geniuses..."

"They don't have divine bodies, but if I'm not mistaken, the worst ones are at least peak-grade single spirit roots."

"The rest are basically heavenly spirit roots and special constitutions."

"If others were to discover this, they might immediately take them back to Shushan."

Otto was somewhat amazed; although his talent was also a divine body that topped the world, but...

Seeing so many geniuses all at once still made him sigh.

The Tree Sea World is truly extraordinary.

To be honest, if it weren't for seeing the talent of these people, Otto wouldn't have bothered to bring them here himself.

Otto himself was an arrogant person, and after cultivating immortality, that arrogance was carved into his bones.

The only people who could catch his eye, besides powerhouses, were geniuses; of course, there were also Kallen and Theresa.

What he was doing was what others would do; these people's talents would inevitably lead them to join Shushan.

In fact, it was very likely that they wouldn't need to wait until a hundred years later to be recommended by others.

Moreover, with the strength they currently possessed, they were at least at the late stage of Refining Qi into Spirit.

Making friends in advance and expanding one's connections could be considered a stable investment that wouldn't lose money.

Didn't Aether often do this kind of thing?

Even now, Ei still owed Aether a favor.

Although Aether had become a direct disciple and didn't need to use this favor.

But Otto and the others needed it.

Shushan also had factions.

Especially these core inner sect disciples.

For example, Otto had a very good relationship with Bai Zhu, Xue Yue, Diluc, Kaeya, and Jin Yi of the Peng Bird Clan.

They were in the same faction.

Old Yang was in the faction of Tesla, Einstein, Yi Ming, and Kamisato Ayato.

Grouping together for warmth happened everywhere.

It was just that their current group was a bit worse compared to others.

They could be considered a second-tier group in Shushan today.

The first-tier groups were still Lady Ningguang, Miss Keqing, Immortal Liuyun, and others, as well as Lisa, Jean, Furina, and so on.

Although a group didn't mean anything, it had to be said that the stronger the small group, the more resources and opportunities there were.

Their group was currently at most at the early stage of Refining Qi into Spirit, lacking some decisive power.

Lady Ningguang and her group had good relationships with Miss Ganyu and Xiao.

Lisa and her group had good relationships with Aether and his group.

To put it bluntly, Otto and the others were also recruiting people for their own groups in advance.

Taking advantage of the fact that Herta and the others hadn't started cultivating immortality yet and no one else had noticed.

For now, the best choice was naturally to invest in advance.

Otto and Old Yang looked at each other and saw each other's little thoughts.

"Each using their own methods, fair competition?"

Otto said lightly, and Old Yang sneered:

"Fair competition? It's truly rare to hear such words from your mouth..."

"Do you accept?"

"Why wouldn't I?"

The two looked at each other again and said no more.

Not far away, Himeko and the others were leisurely moving through the many stalls.

Ruan Mei was focused on shopping; whatever she saw, as long as she could buy it with spirit coins, she would buy it immediately.
