Chapter 3573: Consultation Fee

~30 min read 5,992 words

On the boundless shallow beach, a tall tomb built of rocks stood.

The sky after the rain cleared up a bit, and a ray of sunlight shone obliquely, illuminating only this tall tomb. Such a spectacular sight could only be seen by the final winner, such as Su Xiao.

"Boss, everything is done."

Baham flew over. Behind it, Amu carried the life-support device, which contained Su Xiao's left arm + left shoulder + a small part of his left torso.

Su Xiao sat on a giant rock, examining the gray sphere in front of him. The diameter of this thing was about half a meter. The further inward, the denser the gray, and at the very center, it was almost white. This was the Source of Deathly Silence.

After the Eternal God fell, the Source of Deathly Silence peeled off from its body on its own. Because the Eternal God was defeated in the life-and-death battle, the Source of Deathly Silence also fell into a short period of silence.

This was also the significance of the life-and-death battle between Su Xiao and the Eternal God. After Su Xiao chose to break the seal and kill the god, the Eternal God also made the corresponding choice. In its final moments, it used the Source of Deathly Silence as its power source.

If Su Xiao had been defeated, the Eternal God's shell would have served as a container, continuing to seal the Source of Deathly Silence, giving the living beings of this world a final preparation time, or another powerful person would have stood up to seal the Source of Deathly Silence, or they would have faced destruction.

If Su Xiao had won, then because the Eternal God used the Source of Deathly Silence as its power source, following its defeat, the Source of Deathly Silence would inevitably fall into an unprecedented temporary weakening period. During this period, there was a high probability that it could be permanently sealed into a vessel with proof, thereby completely solving the problem.

This was also the significance of the existence of the Chosen One tradition, Source Stones, the Four Trials, the Supreme Sanctuary, proof, etc.

Facts proved that this method was truly feasible. Su Xiao, Wood, and Zui Yas all unleashed their means, plus the critical elemental affinity to draw lightning; this blow struck the Source of Dead Silence into an unprecedented temporary period of weakness.

Even so, they had to continue to complete the permanent sealing. At most in a day or two, the Source of Deathly Silence would recover. Plus, at that time, without the Eternal God using itself as a container to seal it, the City of Deathly Silence would explode and spread, to the point of completely swallowing this world, turning this world into a huge City of Deathly Silence.

Su Xiao took the Black King's arm guard that Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang had brought back. He turned the release into a fragment form, and then, starting from the wound on the left side of his torso, crystals began to spread, and the release fragments were gradually mixed into it, plus Spirit Shadow Lines acting as the nervous system.

Soon, a small part of Su Xiao's left torso and left arm were made of translucent, light blue crystals. He moved his left hand. Because there were Spirit Shadow Lines acting as the nervous system, the left arm had a certain feeling, but the sense of touch and sensitivity were much worse than the original.

Following his manipulation, the Black King's arm guard unfolded, and with a click, it snapped onto his left forearm, completely wrapping his left hand and five fingers.

Su Xiao flipped through the prompts. When he defeated the Eternal God just now, a pile of prompts appeared. Only now did he have time to check.

【Prompt: Your Promotion Mission · Fifth Ring · Completed.】

Seeing this prompt, Su Xiao remembered that he had a promotion mission. Before entering the City of Deathly Silence, the content of the promotion mission could be described as ring after ring.

But after entering the City of Deathly Silence, this mission appeared with a "This mission has been triggered" and then it was over. Previously, the mission information was scarce, but this time there wasn't even a mission name, and the content, time limit, rewards, etc., were also invisible.

That meant it seemed that after entering the City of Deathly Silence, he could just play freely.

Now it seemed that this promotion mission was actually fine. As the Chosen One, he either chose to leave here and hard-tank the karma of deathly silence, or be crowned as the White King, or become the final winner, or die here.

【You have completed the Promotion Mission · End of Deathly Silence (this is the final link of this promotion mission).】

【You have received the following mission rewards:】

1. Ninth-Tier Hunter Permission (After returning to Samsara Paradise, this permission will be activated. After this permission is activated, you will obtain the corresponding branch permissions).

2. Amplification Device (This is exclusive material constructed according to this mission. After being used on the proof, it can increase the probability of the proof permanently sealing the Source of Deathly Silence).

3. Transcendent Badge (Special Equipment).

【Transcendent Badge】

Origin: Samsara Paradise

Category: Special Equipment

Durability: 50/50

Equipment Effect: After wearing this badge, you can selectively enter a Transcendent Native World without consuming corresponding props.

Introduction: As an outsider, you must be cautious everywhere in a transcendent world, especially in some transcendent worlds that are hostile to contractors.

Selling Price: After equipping, it cannot be sold/transferred, etc.

Regarding props for entering a Transcendent Native World, Su Xiao had obtained one before, called 【Blade of Transcendence】.

"Blade of Transcendence (Special Item): Can rely on this item to briefly break open the external spatial barrier of a Transcendent Native World and enter the Transcendent Native World."

Putting away the 【Transcendent Badge】, Su Xiao looked at the 【Amplification Device】 in his hand. This thing was a small ball of pitch-black semi-fluid metal. After he activated it, this liquid metal climbed onto the Black King's arm guard and disappeared into it.

Arriving in front of the Source of Deathly Silence, Su Xiao raised his left hand wearing the Black King's arm guard and touched this source.

There was no light shining brightly or heaven-and-earth-shattering scene as imagined. The Source of Deathly Silence in the silence period turned into gray-white thread-like shapes and was completely absorbed by the Black King's arm guard.

I don't know when, but the black clouds in the sky dissipated, and sunlight scattered down. Looking at the "Hall of Atonement" in the distance, this building that had existed for I don't know how many years was turning into sand and drifting away at a slow speed. Looking at the appearance, in a few days, this building would disappear.

【Prompt: You have triggered the final effect of the Deathly Silence Set.】

【Set Effect 3, Final Gift (Passive): If the City of Deathly Silence completely disappears, the Hunter's Willpower attribute will be promoted to a real attribute.】

【Prompt: Willpower is currently not viewable. If promoted to a real attribute, it can be viewed in personal data.】

【It has been verified that the Root · City of Deathly Silence will definitely disappear within the next few natural days. You have achieved the trigger prerequisite for the Final Gift (Passive).】

【After returning to Samsara Paradise, the Hunter can go to the Attribute Enhancement Hall and complete this Willpower advancement in any attribute enhancement chamber.】

【Real Willpower: When performing a Willpower judgment, this attribute has absolute priority. Even if the party's Real Willpower is significantly lower than the enemy's conventional Willpower attribute, it will bring advantages in judgment and competition. If both sides have Real Willpower, normal judgment will be performed according to the strength degree.】

【Prompt: Real Willpower has high resistance when resisting effects such as charm, illusion, mental induction, nightmare, etc.】

【Prompt: When entering an area with nightmare characteristics, Real Willpower will bring natural ultra-high resistance (the lowest sanity value will be above 1600 points).】

【Prompt: Real Willpower can keep the eroded person awake for a longer time when resisting the erosion of negative characteristic energy.】

【Prompt: When facing the erosion of Abyss energy, Real Willpower can play a relatively good role in keeping the mind clear and persist longer before the mind is eroded by the Abyss.】

Su Xiao had been looking forward to Real Willpower for a long time. Su Xiao didn't need high resistance to charm, illusion, etc. Blade Technique Master naturally immunized against this aspect.

What Su Xiao valued was the bonus of Real Willpower to meditation and the high sanity value it brought.

Back in the Painted World, Su Xiao had experienced the role of sanity value. This characteristic didn't usually manifest itself, but when entering an area with nightmare characteristics, sanity value was both a 'ticket' and a consumable.

Simply put, a nightmare area is a small-range, ultra-high-risk area. Measuring it from a game perspective, this is a super dangerous small dungeon.

After entering a nightmare area, sanity value will continuously decrease, which feels similar to consuming Mana. Conversely, in a nightmare area, one can often find large treasure chests in certain places inside.

These types of treasure chests are fixed on the ground and cannot be moved by any means; they can only be opened on the spot.

The reason why this is so is because the composition of a nightmare area is intertwined with dreams, souls, thoughts, etc.

It is usually dominated by the dreams of a certain person or all residents of a small town. In people's subconscious, they will put treasures in safe places. This is also why there are often large treasure chests deep in nightmare areas, and there are treasures inside when opened.

As for fighting the nightmare area's guardian boss, don't even think about it. Not to mention that it's completely unbeatable, they are the companions of this nightmare area, or simply the nightmare of this nightmare.

Even if you beat them, it's useless. The guardian boss in the nightmare can regenerate without limit. Conversely, the intruder only has one life. If the spiritual body dies in the nightmare, the physical body in the real world becomes a shell without consciousness.

Of course, there are exceptions. If the intruder's sanity value is too high, there will even be situations where the guardian boss in the nightmare doesn't dare to provoke the intruder.

Also, don't underestimate these guardian bosses. Take a look at the Lamp Sister in the Painted World—that is, she was cleaned up by the Old Knight; otherwise, the Lamp Sister in the "Nightmare Ward" is an unsolvable existence. Even if she was cleaned up later, the Lamp Sister is also immortal unless the nightmare area is removed.

Not considering nightmare areas for now, whether one can find such places in the future depends on luck.

Su Xiao tried to check the attributes of the Black King's arm guard, but the result was as expected: this equipment was in a state of transformation and could not be viewed.

He estimated that the Black King's arm guard's promotion to Origin-level should be stable. What kind of ability would appear, there was no way to judge now.

Compared to abilities like Deathly Silence Descent, Su Xiao hoped more that "Undying Will (Passive)" could be retained. The ability to exempt the near-death state was truly too easy to use.

This ability not only made Su Xiao fearless of the sharp decrease in mobility brought by near-death, but instead made the near-death state his third stage with the most powerful attack ability.

Just now, when he was in the third stage, he slashed the Eternal God until it had no power to fight back. Although he couldn't persist for 10 seconds before he ran out of energy, for other enemies, this time of less than 10 seconds would have already been slashed to pieces by Su Xiao.

Su Xiao checked the prompt at the very bottom. This was the kill prompt for the Eternal God.

【Prompt: You have killed the Eternal God.】

【You have obtained World Seed (Using it in any world will obtain a "huge amount" of World Source).】

【You have obtained Divine Bone × 1 (Origin-level).】

【Prompt: This item is notarized by Samsara Paradise.】

【You have obtained God Hunter · Title (★★★★★★★★★).】

【You have obtained Origin-level Treasure Chest · Eternal.】

Su Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at the content of the prompt. One, two, three, four... seven, eight, nine. Hmm, it was a nine-star title. After confirming this point, the wounds all over Su Xiao's body didn't hurt much. This was the first time he had obtained a nine-star title.

【God Hunter】

Origin: Samsara Paradise

Quality: ★★★★★★★★★

Category: Title · Rare.

Title Effect 1: God Slaughter (Passive), when confronting divine units, will additionally deal 15%~30% true damage.

Prompt: The intensity of additional damage will be determined according to the strength of the divine unit.

Title Effect 2: God Hunter (Passive), you who successfully beheaded the Eternal God have a natural deterrent effect on all divine units below the Ninth Tier, causing them to retreat.

Prompt: All miracle power, or curse power, etc., derived from divine units below the Ninth Tier will be ineffective against you.

Prompt: Divine units of the same tier as you will also have a certain probability of failing when performing rulings or divine curses on you (the probability is judged according to the comprehensive strength of you and this divine unit).

Title Effect 3: Hunt and Seize (Passive), this ability can be triggered after slaughtering a god.

Maximum storage capacity: 0/5.

Introduction: After wearing this title, you will be defaulted to holding a "Hunter Badge" and can accept commissions or issue commissions in the "Hunter Guild."

Selling Price: Cannot be sold

The rewards for killing the Eternal God were exceptionally generous. However, this was not the full harvest. In the Supreme Sanctuary, there should be several more vaults.

Arriving in front of the Supreme Sanctuary, Su Xiao discovered that the main body of this building had been half-blasted away by the World Thunder, and it was still drifting away as sand at a very slow speed.

Entering it, Su Xiao discovered that the originally locked temple gate had been opened. In such a short time, mottled rust had appeared on the gate.

Entering the temple, he saw a large area of scorched black on the temple floor; it was the World Thunder pouring in from the skylight.

Zui Yasi and Wood were not there, leaving only Gulu lying on the ground. Seeing this scene, Su Xiao felt a bit suspicious in his heart. He had already learned just now that Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang had helped Gulu carry quite a bit of World Thunder, but the other party hadn't woken up yet. This thunder resistance was simply too weak.

Flipping Gulu over and injecting an active life potion, Gulu's slender eyebrows trembled, and then she slowly opened her eyes.

Just waking up, Gulu immediately sat up and said angrily: "Where is Zui Yasi? Where is Zui Yasi?!"

"..."

Su Xiao didn't even need to think to guess the general situation. After defeating the powerful enemy, the half-dead Zui Yasi and Wood, who had only one breath left, got up from the ground with difficulty. Among them, Zui Yasi punched Gulu unconscious.

Gulu didn't understand the deep friendship between 'good teammates.' It was already this time period, and if she didn't guard against it, it would be abnormal not to get punched.

"Revenge!"

Gulu was furious. She basically didn't cooperate or team up with others unless she met someone she liked, such as a girl named Biting Cat she had met before. They had teamed up for a period of time.

"Can you beat him?"

Baham said with a wicked smile.

"Of course I can't beat him."

Gulu said particularly hard-headedly. This choked Baham until it couldn't speak. It was the first time it had met someone who said they couldn't beat someone so hard-headedly.

"Wait until my profession's final stage awakens."

Gulu said, deciding to endure it first. But the more she thought about it, the angrier she got. Her gaze looked at Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, and she asked something in a low voice.

Not long after, Gulu came to the inner side of the temple, stopping at five forks leading to the underground vault. She held a metal bomb that looked like a metal pineapple, pulled the pin, and threw it into the passage where Zui Yasi was. This thing didn't have much power, but it was cheap, and it was enough to avenge the punch.

Not long after, a muffled sound came from inside. Gulu, with one hand on her waist, showed a happy smile on her face. But in the next second, a black tentacle suddenly protruded from the wall behind her and slammed toward her back like a straight punch.

Gulu sank into the wall. A moment later, she sniffed her nosebleed, took out another pineapple-like metal bomb, and threw it into the passage where Zui Yasi was. The next moment, there was another muffled sound inside.

A few seconds later, Wood, wearing a tattered dark purple suit with wisps of scorched smoke coming from his skull, walked out of this passage, his ghostly green pupil flames staring at Gulu.

"Eww~"

Gulu retreated half a step with a guilty conscience. In turn, Zui Yasi walked out of another passage with a faint smile on his face.

Su Xiao wasn't in a hurry about the share of the vault. At this time, Amu had already organized the harvest in the vault connected to the middle passage. Five passages connected to five vaults.

Caesar had emptied one. This was understandable. Although Caesar didn't participate in the battle, Caesar had contributed a lot in the manufacturing of artificial Source Stones, and before Amu was on the Abyss battlefield, Caesar had provided life-saving recovery potions.

Therefore, Su Xiao had no opinion on Caesar taking one share. Zui Yasi and Wood also had other cooperation with Caesar, and the two of them had no opinion on Caesar taking one share.

The remaining four shares, judging from the current situation, Su Xiao occupied the majority, but also didn't occupy the majority. The reason was that there was really a Black Maple Tree seed in the vault.

This was discovered when Wood and Zui Yasi were looting a vault together. Seeing this tree seed, Zui Yasi and Wood both thought that Su Xiao should really develop prophecy-type abilities.

If the total harvest included this Black Maple Tree seed, then Su Xiao occupied the minority. If not, Su Xiao occupied the majority.

The situation now was that Su Xiao was blocking the main passage where the five passages converged. To get out, this was the only way. And that Black Maple Tree seed was in Zui Yasi's hand.

The two people opposite were both silent. The reason why the division of spoils was so harmonious this time was mainly because the three of them were too severely injured. Although it seemed they all still had combat power, they were actually on the verge of half-death. The backstabbing knife was really not held very steadily.

"I have no interest in that tree seed."

Hearing Su Xiao's words, Zui Yasi and Wood both felt a thud in their hearts. The two of them brushed past Su Xiao from left and right, but they walked a long way without waiting for a knife slashed at their backs.

The two stopped and looked at Su Xiao suspiciously, then confirmed that Su Xiao was really not interested in the Black Maple Tree seed. Not long after, the two disappeared at the end of the main passage.

"Oh roar, you guys were quite harmonious when dividing the spoils..."

Gulu just finished speaking.

Boom!!

A muffled sound came from outside. Su Xiao turned his head to look at Gulu and said: "What did you say?"

"No, nothing."

Gulu listened to the roar outside and knew without thinking that the other side had entered the pleasant backstabbing link.

In Su Xiao's view, the Black Maple Tree seed must be Zui Yasi's. Wood grabbing it was more about negotiating conditions, such as sharing a few percentages of the Black Maple Tree's output, rather than taking it back to the Void to plant. This Black Maple Tree was most suitable to be planted in the Meteor Star.

Su Xiao walked along the passage toward the vault, and Gulu followed behind. Who would refuse to visit the vault? On the way, Gulu said:

"Hey, your promotion mission is completed, right."

"..."

Su Xiao turned his head to look, and found that Gulu wasn't asking himself, but asking Sheng Shi. Besides, ever since Gulu called Su Xiao 'hey hey hey' before and was hung on a tree by Su Xiao once, she didn't dare to call Su Xiao like that anymore.

"Over-completed. I originally only needed to collect the Church Stone Tablets to complete the Ninth-Tier promotion. Now the mission completion rate has reached 729%."

"7... 700-plus? You made a big profit."

"Luck is also a part of strength, isn't it."

Sheng Shi said with a bit of gentleness. It could be seen that her mood was quite good.

As the strongest Eighth-Tier healer, Sheng Shi was undergoing the trial for promotion to Ninth Tier. This wasn't worth being surprised about, or rather, she should have taken this step long ago. She chose to accumulate for a period of time before.

Su Xiao didn't care about the conversation between the two. When he walked into the vault, Amu and Baham had already organized the harvest. The total was as follows:

【You have obtained Soul Crystal (Complete) × 165.】

【You have obtained Soul Crystal Core × 42.】

【You have obtained Soul Residue × 1502.】

【You have obtained Soul Residue (Large) × 137.】

【You have obtained Dark Stone × 10 (Abyss product).】

【You have obtained Abyss Blood (Abyss product).】

【You have obtained Soul Library Entry Voucher (After paying this voucher to the Soul Library · Administrator, you can obtain permanent Soul Library entry qualification. This qualification belongs only to the individual and cannot be transferred).】

Seeing a large amount of Soul Residue, it would be a lie to say he wasn't regretful. This was 1000-plus Soul Crystals (Complete) and 100-plus Soul Crystal Cores. This kind of substance, once not preserved well enough, would gradually turn into residue after a long time and finally drift away completely.

Su Xiao checked the attributes of 【Dark Stone】 and 【Abyss Blood】. The content was as follows:

【Dark Stone】

Origin: Abyss.

Category: Permanent Buff Item.

Usage Effect: After use, can permanently increase one's main attribute (determined by the situation of the current main attribute, deciding the improvement range. The lower the current main attribute, the higher the improvement brought).

Prompt: This item only takes effect upon first use.

Introduction: A wonderful thing produced from the Abyss.

【Abyss Blood】

Origin: Abyss.

Category: Dangerous Item.

Usage Effect: Divine blood boosted by high-purity Abyss energy, possessing powerful Abyss erosiveness.

Introduction: Important material for the Wolf Knight team.

【Dark Stone】 was a rare good thing, and 【Abyss Blood】, in Su Xiao's view, this harvest was very important. He had already thought of what the Wolf Knights were using this thing for.

The final 【Soul Library Entry Voucher】, this thing wasn't discovered in this vault but was found on Caesar's side. It was interesting to say why he didn't want this thing—Caesar had actually suffered a loss there and could no longer enter the Soul Library.

Su Xiao didn't leave the vault immediately. It was still safe here. After sitting cross-legged on the ground to recover from his injuries, he picked up a wooden box, scooped out 30-plus Soul Crystals (Complete) and a few Soul Crystal Cores from a metal box on the side, closed the wooden box, and threw it to Gulu. He had no interest in how she fell into the temple. After participating in the battle, it was useful. Since there were spoils, it was that simple.

Not long after, Gulu left this vault to look elsewhere to see if she could find some good things.

In the vault, after resting for a while, Su Xiao felt that his injuries had recovered by at least 30%. The reason he didn't return to Samsara Paradise directly was because there were other things he hadn't done yet.

The mining duo was still in the High Wall City. They couldn't enter the City of Deathly Silence. Plus, before coming to the City of Deathly Silence, the workshop in the High Wall City had promised that if they could return, they were willing to provide a set of equipment.

The workshop's attitude was that they didn't intend to directly support the Chosen One faction, but to stay on the sidelines between the Chosen One faction and the Academic faction, becoming the final winner at the lowest cost.

The workshop hadn't thought that Su Xiao and the others could return. Under such circumstances, if Su Xiao didn't return to take a set of Immortal-level equipment, it would be sorry for the workshop's 'painstaking efforts.'

Idle and bored, Su Xiao checked his talent ability · Hunter Shadow.

【Hunter Shadow】

Talent Effect 1 (Passive): To be activated.

Prompt: Need to go to the Law-Extinguishing Shadow Inheritance Hall and touch the "Awakening Tablet" to activate this ability.

Prompt: The Law-Extinguishing Shadow Inheritance Hall has been destroyed. The Awakening Tablet is currently located in the Holy Light Paradise. The Hunter can exchange for this item through 1000~1200 ounces of Space-Time Power, which needs to be notarized by the Tree of the Void during the period.

Talent Effect 2 (Passive): After killing an enemy, your Devouring Core will absorb the enemy's source energy that hasn't dissipated yet, using it to convert into Soul Energy. When Soul Energy reaches 100%, you will obtain 1 Law-Extinguishing skill point.

Prompt: This skill point is reflected after being notarized by Samsara Paradise and can improve Law-Extinguishing abilities (because Talent Ability 1 is not activated, Law-Extinguishing skill points cannot exert their full use).

Existing skill points: 30 points.

Having accumulated 30 Law-Extinguishing exclusive skill points, after returning this time, Su Xiao could push the Green Steel Shadow ability to Lv. 89. From this, one could see the strength of this Law-Extinguishing unique talent.

However, the first characteristic of this talent required the "Awakening Tablet" to be activated. The problem was that the Awakening Tablet was in the Holy Light Paradise and required 1200 ounces of Space-Time Power to buy.

This was truly too expensive. Su Xiao's way of obtaining Space-Time Power was completely based on fate. After pondering for a moment, he used his Hunter permission to consult whether there were other ways. Originally, he was just trying, but who would have thought that a prompt would appear.

【It has been verified that the Hunter can already be promoted to Ninth Tier and is about to be able to enter a Ninth-Tier world.】

【Yes/No to use 50 ounces of Space-Time Power to consult detailed information about the Law-Extinguishing Shadow · Awakening Tablet (location, current status, etc.).】

【This consultation includes World Teleportation Permission and Brand Disguise Permission, but does not include Coordinate Locking Permission.】

【If you need to enjoy Coordinate Locking Permission, this consultation fee will increase to 350 ounces of Space-Time Power.】

Seeing these prompts, Su Xiao's eyes seemed to brighten a bit. Taking out 1200 ounces of Space-Time Power for the Holy Light Paradise was a transaction, while spending 50 ounces of Space-Time Power for Samsara Paradise was... going to rob?

After Su Xiao thought carefully, he basically determined that this was definitely going to rob, especially the first prompt. He consulted about the "Awakening Tablet," but the first prompt was that he was about to be promoted to Ninth Tier and could enter a Ninth-Tier world.

Did this mean that the "Awakening Tablet" was in a certain Ninth-Tier Native World of the Holy Light Paradise?

Thinking of this, Su Xiao chose to pay 50 ounces for consultation, and a large amount of information appeared before his eyes.

First, the "Awakening Tablet" was in a Ninth-Tier Native World called "Golden World," which was a world belonging to the Holy Light Paradise. Only contractors of the Holy Light Paradise or a small number of contractors of the Apocalypse Paradise could enter it.

It could be said that it was a world very rich in resources among Ninth-Tier Native Worlds. Plus, although the danger there wasn't low, it wasn't high either, which led to the keys to enter the "Golden World" not being easy to buy. Unless one was willing to pay a higher price, it was impossible to get one.

Because Su Xiao only paid 50 ounces of Space-Time Power for the consultation fee, this fee only included teleportation permission and brand disguise permission. The most expensive Coordinate Locking Permission wasn't included.

This coordinate was very difficult to obtain. Even if one had the world key to the "Golden World," only contractors of the Holy Light Paradise could use it. People from other Paradise factions

Coordinate locked...

Su Xiao thought of one thing. He had to complete this before returning to Reincarnation Paradise. This was a setup that could potentially save 300 ounces of Space-Time Power.

Taking out a blank contract parchment, Su Xiao pricked his index finger and first outlined the mark representing the Tree of the Void on it. Afterward, he flipped the parchment over and outlined the 'ф' mark on the back, which represented Reincarnation Paradise.

The next second, Su Xiao's bloodstains completely dyed the back of the parchment red. The 'ф' mark outlined earlier could no longer be seen, but this mark truly and certainly existed.

Completing the preliminary drafting, Su Xiao took out a fountain pen and began writing on the contract. After finishing the first layer, he began writing the second. Before long, after a total of 15 layers were written, he pressed them back together into one sheet.

It had been a long time since he had made this kind of camouflage-type contract, so it was inevitable to be a bit rusty. The previous record was 17 layers; without camouflage, he could split it into more than 30 layers.

Su Xiao took out two 【Dark Stones】 and used this drafted contract parchment to wrap both 【Dark Stones】 inside. No one would ever sell supplies like 【Dark Stones】.

As Su Xiao gripped it tighter and tighter, the red parchment wrapping the two 【Dark Stones】 gradually merged into the two 【Dark Stones】 and disappeared.

Su Xiao checked the origin of these two 【Dark Stones】; it had changed to Abyss/Dark Continent. That was no problem. The problem was the attribute line below the effect.

A soul coin appeared in Su Xiao's hand. He flicked the soul coin up, and the next second, a hand grasped the flying soul coin.

"My dear friend, what is the matter for which you seek Caesar?"

Caesar, smirking, was already standing beside Su Xiao. Upon learning of Su Xiao's request, Caesar's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

"My dear friend, modifying the attributes of an item, this, this, this, I really have no way to do it."

"This is an item after secondary processing. The attribute notarization will not be as strict as the original version."

Su Xiao spoke. He often concocted potions, so he naturally knew how much difference there would be between the original data of an item and the data presented by a personal processed product. The former absolutely could not be changed—any method would be useless—while the latter could be slightly manipulated.

"How about I try shrinking this line of text?"

"..."

Su Xiao did not speak; he tossed a small bottle containing 5 ounces of Space-Time Power to Caesar. Caesar took it with a beaming smile.

A moment later, Su Xiao used a small microscope resembling a monocular telescope to check the prompt below the 【Dark Stone】 effect. The prompt was still there, just a bit smaller.

Removing this prompt and shrinking it were of completely different natures. The former was impossible to achieve, while the latter had some room for operation.

Su Xiao walked toward the outside of the treasury. After exiting the Supreme Sanctuary, he 'ran into' Gulu.

After preliminarily judging the aura and confirming that Saint Poetry's faint soul fluctuation was still there, Su Xiao said to Gulu: "After going back, help me run an errand."

"Run an errand to the leader's side?"

"Yes."

"Not going."

Gulu's thought in her heart was that if she could get some benefits, she would get some. If the guy opposite her wanted to beat her up, then she would immediately change her words and say she would go.

Su Xiao took out two 【Dark Stones】 and said: "This is the reward."

"Rest assured! The matter will definitely be handled for you."

"..."

Su Xiao tossed out the two 【Dark Stones】. Strangely, Gulu raised both hands to catch them. Even more strangely, she was actually gnashing her teeth while looking at her left hand.

Gulu grabbed one 【Dark Stone】 with both hands simultaneously. The one in her left hand disappeared immediately. Gulu's eyes widened a bit, and she said: "Saint Poetry!"

Alas, the item had already been split away by Saint Poetry. Gulu had no good way to deal with it. In fact, Gulu did not know that this time she had borrowed Saint Poetry's light to obtain one 【Dark Stone】.

Su Xiao walked toward the Atonement Hall. After walking quite a distance, he opened the team communication channel. In a situation where only he, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Baham, and Amu could hear, he said to Baham: "Contact the Goblin Chamber of Commerce in a while. Have them get a key to the Golden World. The price is negotiable."

"Boss, are you going to sell it to Saint Poetry?"

"Yes."

"But wouldn't this be too obvious? She is a contractor of Holy Light Paradise. After we return to Reincarnation Paradise, if we want to sell her something, we first have to make ultra-long-distance contact, then list it on the Tree of the Void's auction house, and only then can she buy it. This..."

As Baham was talking, it suddenly remembered one thing. It slapped its bird leg and said: "That's right! After the Ninth Tier, there is a public trading area gathering place. Let Benny 'coincidentally' sell the Golden World key to her there. She just promoted to the Ninth Tier; there is no better place to go than the Golden World to make a fortune. It is not considered very dangerous, and there are huge gains, making it easier to stabilize her footing in the Ninth Tier. After Saint Poetry gets the Golden Key, she will definitely go to the Golden World in the next world. By then, we only need to track her..."

As Baham spoke, it became convinced of where the next world progress would be: going to the Golden World to seize the "Stele of Awakening." To be precise, it was to take back the "Stele of Awakening." That originally belonged to the Law Breakers; it was created by the Law Breaker faction with huge capital, and the cost was even greater than the "Talent Awakening Device."

However, before going to the Golden World, after returning to Reincarnation Paradise this time, Su Xiao had to go to the Arcane Eternal Star first. That side had warmly invited him, as the Saint Flame Alchemist, to attend the Arcane Magic Festival held on the Arcane Eternal Star.

All along, having received various 'care' from the Arcane Eternal Star, Su Xiao would of course go this time. Not only would he go, but he also had a big gift to give to the Arcane Eternal Star.
