Chapter 206: Three Rare Materials

Zhou Chu did not even think about it and hurriedly nodded to show his agreement.

He currently had nearly 10,000 Soul Fragments on him; if he fused them at a rate of 10 fragments per Soul Crystal, he could have 1,000 Soul Crystals without any loss.

It seemed that from now on, no matter what difficult problem he encountered, he just had to ask Pantos, which would save him from bumping around like a headless fly.

Nowadays, Soul Fragments could only serve as Zhou Chu's reserve treasury; for the short term, aside from daily necessities, there was nowhere to spend large amounts of money.

Moreover, the 50 million won from the bet during his duel with Chen Bo was enough for his daily expenses.

Even that Soul Cleansing Stone was still lying quietly in the Storage Space of his Life Soul Artifact.

If he ever encountered a situation where he needed a large sum of money in the future, he could just sell that Soul Cleansing Stone, which would be enough to solve his urgent needs.

Therefore, the best way to handle the 10,000 or so Soul Fragments he had accumulated was to fuse them all into Soul Crystals.

Right now, upgrading his Life Soul Artifact to the God-level as soon as possible was the top priority.

At this moment, Pantos pointed at the item list and said, "Master, I might be able to make some modifications to the remains of the Nature God in this Emperor Tomb."

After hearing this, Zhou Chu's heart stirred, and he hurriedly asked, "Modifications? How? Or rather, what changes will there be after the modifications?"

Pantos paused and said, "I won't hide it from you, Master; in truth, those high and mighty gods are all sanctimonious hypocrites."

"On the surface, they preach justice and peace, but behind the scenes, they stop at nothing to achieve their own goals."

"In fact, these gods look down on beings weaker than themselves most of all. To achieve their goals, they usually use unequal, small favors as 'divine gifts' to dismiss those who have done them a service."

"Therefore, this Nature God must be trying to deceive you, Master, in the same way. As long as you help her reshape her remains, once she regains her Divine Power, you, Master, will become a beast of burden for them to drive."

Zhou Chu naturally did not know the hidden agendas of these gods, and after hearing this exposé from Pantos, he did not feel much.

In his view, the evil gods and demons in the Abyss were already on opposite sides, so it was only natural for them to smear each other.

Zhou Chu did not care about these things; his only wish was to be able to make the Nature God serve him.

"I can make the Nature God your contract servant as well, so that even if she successfully reshapes her remains in the future, she will be unable to defy you!" Pantos said immediately.

Back when he obtained the remains of the Nature God in the God-Fallen Land, Zhou Chu had the exact same thought.

"What is the price?" Zhou Chu could not help but ask.

Because he felt that changing the nature of a god's remains was not a simple matter.

Behind all of this, there must be a great price to pay.

Pantos narrowed his eyes slightly, stroked his smooth chin thoughtfully, and said, "Master, wanting to turn the Nature God into your contract servant does indeed require paying a price."

"First, during the transformation process, I need to consume a large amount of Soul Crystals and rare materials to break the original divine restrictions on her remains, and I also need your Soul Blood to refine the corresponding Contract Mark."

"Soul Crystals?" Zhou Chu frowned and secretly calculated his current reserves.

He had originally planned to use the Soul Crystals fused from the 10,000 Soul Fragments to upgrade his Life Soul Artifact to SS-level, but it seemed that would have to be put on hold.

As the saying goes, one should not have the intention to harm others, but one must have the intention to guard against them.

The more beautiful a woman is, the less one should trust her easily.

To prevent the Nature God from going back on her word after gaining Divine Power and becoming the other party's beast of burden, Zhou Chu had to take precautions in advance.

"How many Soul Crystals are needed?"

Zhou Chu frowned and asked.

Pantos held up three fingers and said, "At least 3,000 Soul Crystals, and they must be of the highest purity."

"In addition, some extremely rare high-level materials are needed, such as Star Radiance Stone, Moon Crystal, and Netherfire Core. These materials are very precious and difficult to obtain."

Zhou Chu's expression changed slightly, and he could not help but exclaim inwardly.

3,000 high-purity Soul Crystals was not a small number; he did not even have 3,000 in total right now.

In this case, it seemed he would have to go to the Soul Crystal Mine to dig for more Soul Crystal Raw Stones.

But the Soul Crystal Mine was currently only in the research stage, and as for when it could actually be mined, that was unknown.

Moreover, the three rare materials Pantos mentioned were things Zhou Chu had never even heard of; they sounded very hard to find.

"What are the functions of these materials?" Zhou Chu could not help but feel some curiosity about these three materials.

"Star Radiance Stone can enhance the stability of the Contract Mark, ensuring that the Divine Power cannot break free from the shackles of the contract."

"Moon Crystal can harmonize the energy of the Soul Crystals and increase the success rate of the transformation process. As for the Netherfire Core, it is the key to breaking the divine restrictions; its flames can burn away those stubborn limitations."

"Finally, with your Soul Blood added, even if the god has heaven-reaching Divine Power, she will be unable to break through your suppression and will ultimately bow down to you!" Pantos explained patiently.

Zhou Chu nodded thoughtfully: "Where can these three materials be found?"

Pantos smiled slightly and said, "The first two materials are in the Starry Lake of the God-Fallen Land, while the Netherfire Core requires you to make a trip to the Netherfire Canyon in the Abyss yourself; killing the demons inside gives a chance for it to drop."

"During this time, I will establish the corresponding fusion and transformation device as soon as possible. Once you, Master, have collected these materials, we can begin immediately!"

Zhou Chu pondered for a moment and immediately nodded in agreement.

As his contract servant, Pantos had no reason to deceive him.

Therefore, Zhou Chu could fully afford to take the risk to find these three rare materials.

First, entering the God-Fallen Land required the assistance of the Nature God, and to enter the Abyss, one had to pass through the Magic Source Core in a certain Demon Cave.

These two points were actually not difficult.

However, what Zhou Chu found a bit troublesome was how to obtain more Soul Crystal Raw Stones.

Currently, the military was only researching the mining plan, and it would certainly be impossible to mine the Soul Crystal Mine on a large scale in the short term.

Perhaps Pantos knew a way regarding the Soul Crystal Mine.

Therefore, Zhou Chu asked Pantos about the mining methods for the Soul Crystal Mine.

Pantos narrowed his eyes slightly, pondered for a moment, and then spoke slowly, saying helplessly, "Master, mining the Soul Crystal Mine is not an easy task. Since my previous host bodies did not contain information about Soul Crystal mines, my knowledge of specific mining methods is limited."

"But I do know that the energy in the Soul Crystal Mine is extremely complex, and the distribution of the ore is completely irregular, so ordinary mining methods simply will not work."
