Chapter 351

"But…"

The elegant young man paused, then said: "Your life essence treasure is fused with your soul's origin, unlike ordinary treasures—I don't know which chaotic rare materials are suitable for nurturing your life essence treasure, especially since it's a set treasure, requiring even more complex materials and uncertain ratios; you'll have to experiment gradually yourself, which is quite troublesome…"

Lin Qing suddenly said: "Mr. Hongnuo, I have a membership card for the Chaos Trading Guild."

"You?" The elegant young man exclaimed in surprise.

Only an Eternal Being has the qualifications to apply for a membership card at the Chaos Trading Guild.

Below the Eternal, only those nearly invincible terrifying chaotic beings could possibly become members of the Chaos Trading Guild.

"I obtained it by accident."

Lin Qing said: "But I just got it, and haven't used it yet—I don't know if the Chaos Trading Guild can find the chaotic rare materials I need?"

"Lucky you," the elegant young man smiled. "Since you're a member of the Chaos Trading Guild, it's much easier—you just apply to enter, request to view all chaotic rare materials accessible to ordinary members, and use your life essence treasure to sense each one individually; you'll naturally know what you need, then absorb them on-site."

"That convenient?"

Lin Qing couldn't help asking: "I heard the Chaos Trading Guild operates across all transcendent-level human civilizations—where exactly is it?"

The elegant young man smiled: "Once you activate this membership card, you'll understand."

He didn't elaborate, but immediately said: "How much chaotic rare material in cosmic sand value do you need? I'm carrying some already—materials I don't use alone are worth tens of millions of cosmic sand."

"Then give me chaotic rare materials worth fifteen million cosmic sand," Lin Qing said. "I also need some for my cultivation technique, and might even forge another set of cosmic treasures for my avatar."

"Alright."

The elegant young man nodded slightly, quickly separated a portion of chaotic rare materials, sealed them all inside a space crystal, and handed it to Lin Qing: "These are all materials I don't use—they're worth about 150,000 points at the Chaos Trading Guild."

"Thank you, Mr. Hongnuo," Lin Qing said immediately.

Chaotic rare materials aren't something you can just buy—only Eternal Beings can survive eternally in the Chaos and gather them easily.

But for those below the Eternal, the price becomes unpredictable—it's normal for it to be several times higher.

Moreover, for Eternal Beings, cosmic sand is counted in hundreds of millions; some crucial materials are considered cheap even at tens of billions of cosmic sand, making cosmic sand's role far less significant.

So Eternal Beings generally prefer barter—even lower-grade chaotic rare materials can still be exchanged for points at the Chaos Trading Guild.

And Hongnuo was willing to trade cosmic sand for cosmic sand—he was clearly helping him.

Moreover, he might have drawn the enmity of someone like Like Yu Gong; if the latter chose to distance himself, that would already be more than generous, let alone continue helping him.

"It's nothing."

The elegant young man shook his head slightly and said: "If Like Yu Gong insists on dragging me into this, I was already unable to avoid it when I gave you the Heaven-Roof Cosmic Light Essence—I'm planning to retreat into the Chaos anyway, seeking peace, so why not help you further?"

He laughed and patted Lin Qing on the shoulder: "If you ever become a figure like a Duke, won't I have made a fortune?"

Lin Qing understood—he knew the man was just joking.

He had heard that figures like Dukes were rarer than Ultimate Beings!

Even Ultimate Beings treat them as equals—clearly, they're extraordinary.

"Well, I should go."

The elegant young man looked at Lin Qing: "I'm preparing to leave the Realm of Kings—I'll return with progress, no longer needing to fear Like Yu Gong's threat."

He said no more, then traversed space and vanished.

Lin Qing sighed inwardly, but now had a clear goal.

Since he originally wanted to become a disciple of Your Majesty, the Light King, becoming an Eternal Being was merely a small goal.

Even the weakest of Your Majesty, the Light King's registered disciples, are peak figures among Eternal Beings!

Perhaps some among them rival Like Yu Gong in power?

Achieving the Ultimate is too distant—he dares not be so ambitious yet—but with the Illusory World Annihilation, if he becomes an Eternal Being, perhaps he can become a figure like a Duke!

…

"Chaos Trading Guild."

Lin Qing pulled out the black card covered in intricate patterns, attempted to imprint his soul's mark, and began pouring in power.

The next instant—

A vast, formless, boundless rule descended abruptly, completely enveloping him.

Immediately after, as space-time twisted, Lin Qing vanished from his original spot and reappeared inside a gray, misty temple, where outside, endless dark currents surged, resembling thick, viscous gray fog.

Outside the temple clearly lay the Infinite Chaos.

Lin Qing could even sense the Infinite Chaos's aura slowly eroding him, though the erosion inside the temple was minimal.

Low-grade chaotic beings could barely survive in regions near the edge of the universe, where chaotic energy was thin; once they ventured deeper into the Chaos, they risked being unable to resist the erosion.

"He moved me from the Realm of Kings straight into this temple within the Chaos?"

Lin Qing couldn't help being startled inwardly.

This spatial manipulation clearly surpassed his understanding—even surpassing the prowess of Eternal Beings!

"Welcome to the Chaos Trading Guild, esteemed member."

As a calm voice sounded, golden light streamed into the temple, coalescing into a faint, blurry golden figure.

"Since this is your first visit to the Chaos Trading Guild, I can give you a general overview of our services."

The blurry golden figure said: "First, the Chaos Trading Guild has fixed prices for all known chaotic rare materials and is willing to purchase them, assuming the risk."

"Second, the Chaos Trading Guild lists all purchased chaotic rare materials for sale—anyone with sufficient points may buy them."

"Third, our guild also purchases and lists for sale the bloodlines of all chaotic beings."

"Fourth, ordinary members may purchase only items labeled 'Ordinary.'"

After clearly listing the rules, the blurry golden figure paused and said: "Members may request at any time to view all listed items."

Lin Qing paused, then said: "Show me everything."

The next instant, the blurry golden figure flicked his finger, and streams of golden light materialized mid-air within the vast temple, revealing countless rare materials emitting strange auras, even including bloodline divine crystals.

The variety was immense—certainly numbering in the hundreds of millions!

Beneath each item, there were also lines of textual annotations.

Lin Qing reached out a hand, and a small, exquisite nine-tiered pyramid materialized at his fingertip, as he immediately released his Natal Universe Treasure.

"Go," Lin Qing said. "Let me know if you find anything you need."

The Universe Treasure already possessed a spiritual nature; although he had not deliberately cultivated a weapon spirit, such simple commands were still within its capability.

The next moment, this exquisitely crafted nine-tiered pyramid immediately darted joyfully toward the countless Chaos precious materials floating in midair.

Lin Qing, meanwhile, turned his gaze to those Bloodline Divine Crystals extracted from the bloodlines of Chaos creatures.

The lowest grade was still the bloodline of a third-generation Chaos creature, with selling prices generally around two thousand points, while the purchase price was eighteen hundred points.

"Buying the bloodline of a third-generation Chaos creature with Cosmic Sand in the Kings Realm generally costs over two hundred thousand Cosmic Sand, right…"
