They would surely have higher pursuits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regarding such discussions, Qi Sheng swept a glance over them and paid them no further attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Already aware of the changes in Shu Yan's domain, he shifted his gaze to the revenue feedback data.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the current stage, he was mainly investing the returns from Sacrificial Power into the development of the weapon system.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the weapon system was perfected, he would issue a new round of player qualifications on the Monster World official website.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, it was tentatively planned to distribute 500,000 qualification slots externally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The speed of issuing qualifications began to gradually increase as player revenues grew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, the number of contained Primordial Monsters had recently reached 51.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During this period, three new Primordial Monsters had been successfully contained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first monster was a second-generation Primordial: Void Grip, contained by the player \"Shark Is A Little Southern Liang\" in the Colorful Mist Coast region.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was an output-type Fate Soul suitable only for magic-system players.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its characteristic effect was to consume mental power to generate an arm made of void energy at a target location, capable of performing actions such as slapping, grabbing, and crushing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its strength performed admirably in tests conducted by guide-party players.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its advantage was that, unlike Fate Soul characteristics such as Ink Flame or Running Thunder, it had no flight trajectory upon release and required no throwing; it could be generated directly beside an enemy at a long distance, with zero delay in output.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It could also be paired with element-type output Fate Souls to imbue the Void Grip with elemental properties, elevating its damage to another level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Star Vein combination with the most likes on the forum was: Void Grip, Scattered Arrows, Qi Eating, Ink Flame, Running Thunder, Binding, Wither.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Star Vein combination leaned towards functional output.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the demonstration video, a guide-party player raised their right hand, generating dozens of void arms at a point a hundred meters ahead, sliced by the Scattered Arrows characteristic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arcs of electricity wound around the arms, along with fiercely burning ink-black flames.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A single slam dealt area-of-effect bombardment plus elemental strike effects; all test monsters hit were affected by Binding immobilization and suffered continuous damage from Wither.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Capable of both group output and area attacks, its performance was impressive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, players who liked the \"Void Grip\" Fate Soul generally cared less about output damage and more about its instant-cast effect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It could catch the enemy off guard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The second was a third-generation Primordial Monster: Siphon Spear, contained by the player \"Seventeen Withered\" in the Spirit Artifact Valley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just after being contained, this third-generation Primordial successfully ascended to become one of the strongest in the current version.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was also regarded by a large number of magic-system players as a Fate Soul that must be socketed in the late game.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The characteristic effect of Siphon was: Lock onto a perceived target, draw out the target's mental power, and convert it into one's own mental power reserve (the Siphon effect was influenced by three factors: the target's mental power intensity, one's own mental power intensity, and the Fate Soul's level).\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Siphon was not a Fate Soul like Qi Eating that could directly restore mental power, it was one of the few that could enhance the sustainability of magic-system players.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In test videos released by guide-party players, the performance of the Siphon characteristic was extremely brilliant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially when paired with the \"Scattered Arrows\" Fate Soul, which physical players would typically choose, it could perform continuous siphoning and healing on multiple targets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After adjusting the Fate Soul's level and attributes in the test video, a guide-party player attempted to simultaneously connect via Siphon to 100 targets, causing their mana bar to refill to full at a speed visible to the naked eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the shortcomings of the Siphon Fate Soul were also obvious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The characteristic effect was influenced by the target's mental power intensity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the target had strong mental power, one couldn't drain it; if the target had weak mental power, one couldn't drain much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Releasing the Siphon characteristic also consumed mental power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was very easy for mental power consumption to exceed mental power restoration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Secondly, it occupied a precious Star Vein slot yet failed to provide effective output.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in the foreseeable future, this was a late-game Fate Soul whose strength would continuously climb as the Star Vein level increased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Forum players constructed numerous powerful builds centered around \"Siphon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among them, some players suggested that if one couldn't siphon enemies, one could siphon teammates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Have a teammate act as a power bank nearby drinking mental restoration potions, while one siphons the teammate's mental power to quickly restore status and continue dealing output.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This proposal even received likes and rewards from \"Shen Wang.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was originally just a gimmick build; the player who posted the idea was merely having fun on the forum and had never intended to use it in actual combat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in Shen Wang's eyes, this gimmick build became an effective strategy that could significantly enhance his command capabilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every time he conducted war command, he needed to prepare a spatial bag full of mental restoration potions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Constantly drinking potions also affected his command efficiency.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But with the Siphon Fate Soul, things were different; bringing a power bank alongside would eliminate the step of drinking potions, allowing him to focus entirely on commanding the player legions in battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among these, the Star Vein combination with the most likes on the forum was: Binding, Siphon, Qi Eating, Mental Shockwave, Wither.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Star Vein combination seemed ordinary, yet players who tested it regarded it as the strongest single-duel Fate Soul of the version.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was built primarily around the Binding Fate Soul; in the demonstration video, a guide-party player used Binding to forcibly immobilize the target, performing continuous Siphon stacking combined with Wither damage strikes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the target showed signs of breaking free, they would deliver a Mental Shockwave to continue the immobilization and siphoning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This kept the target in a permanently immobilized state, resulting in excellent single-duel performance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shortcomings were also obvious: the output was too low.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It lacked the versatility of functional support and the burst damage of output players.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It could only rely on the continuous effects of Wither and Siphon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Apart from being strong in single duels, it was good for nothing else and unsuitable for use in war modes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was only suitable for lone-wolf players challenging monsters stronger than themselves in the wild, but the kill efficiency was extremely low.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The last Primordial was an unexpected harvest by the player \"No More Lifting Blade\" while fishing in the Ascension Sea Region; only after pulling it up did they discover it was a golden dragon fish from head to tail.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What surprised this player even more was that the analysis revealed it to be a fifth-generation Primordial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The name of the Primordial Monster's characteristic was \"Gold Coin\"; the analysis description stated it could absorb positive extra benefits through the flow of wealth qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This description was extremely vague, leaving forum players baffled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, the Guidance gave a clear answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The so-called flow of wealth qi referred to actively participating in economic activities, such as trading or investing, which could generate a flow of wealth qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And positive extra benefits referred to earning profits, not losing money on deals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the current stage, there was only one gameplay style suitable for players to adapt to the \"Gold Coin\" characteristic: raising Fat Peach, which could be regarded as a form of value investment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Socketing a level 1 Gold Coin Fate Soul granted an additional 8% revenue, stored in the form of wealth qi power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the value reached 100 Sacrificial Power, it could generate one Gold Coin, which could be sacrificed at any time to exchange for Sacrificial Power for use.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After learning the clear usage method of the Gold Coin characteristic, forum players experienced a wave of excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They believed they could gain extra benefits in the Trading Hall by exploiting a bug; with 8% each time, infinite cycling would yield endless Sacrificial Power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the reality was that the back-and-forth reselling trading model was incompatible with the Gold Coin characteristic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason was simple: many trading models in the Trading Hall were not positive-revenue transactions, as there were percentage commissions deducted from the principal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even without commissions, it was difficult to form a flow of wealth qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was because the Gold Coin characteristic required naturally formed energy; players needed genuine value exchange and emotional investment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When players normally listed goods for sale and they were sold via transaction, they could obtain a flow of wealth qi, receiving extra \"Gold Coin Power\" as cashback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if one approached it with a \"grinding\" mindset, colluding with other players to engage in back-and-forth reselling, no flow of wealth qi would be generated; in fact, even upon the first listing before any reselling began, no flow of wealth qi would be generated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The judgment standard was established by the rule characteristics of the \"Gold Coin\" Fate Soul, leaving no possibility of any bug exploitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it could be exploited, in fact, Qi Sheng would want to exploit infinite Gold Coins even more than the players, to exchange them for Sacrificial Power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, the method of grinding orders was not feasible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After learning the correct usage method from the Guide, the popularity of the Gold Coin Fate Soul plummeted on the forum.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Embedding a Generation Five Fate Soul in its early stage requires an investment of thirty thousand Sacrificial Power; not only does it fail to provide any combat power increase, but its characteristic effect is also extremely useless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least at the current stage, it is very difficult to obtain excessive returns through the Gold Coin Fate Soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the forum players put it: If I have thirty thousand Sacrificial Power, I would rather use it to strengthen my abilities and hunt stronger monsters than embed a Gold Coin, which is far more useful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the eyes of many players, the Gold Coin Fate Soul is not even as powerful as the recently contained Void Grip and Siphon Fate Souls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the forum players all understand one principle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether a Fate Soul is powerful or not is never fixed; since the Gold Coin is a Generation Five Fate Soul, it proves it has very high development potential.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps in the near future, the Gold Coin Fate Soul will shine brilliantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Colorful Mist Coast, Starry Sea Domain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A small boat cut through the waves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the boat, a figure holding a fishing rod sat on a chair woven from vines, legs crossed and propped on the gunwale, wearing a straw hat to block the sun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the fishing rod vibrated; he suddenly sat up, exerting force with both arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He began to contend with a large fish beneath the sea surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They say the Fishing Faction consists of casual players, but Zhong Yi did not think so.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without strength, how can one reel in a big fish?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Activating the Crimson Gang Qi Fate Soul, the muscles in his arms tightened until blue veins surfaced; he exerted force suddenly, and a crimson-red large fish leaped out of the water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Take my punch!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His right fist, coiled and tensed, struck out suddenly, smashing the crimson-red fish into a mist of blood that filled the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Challenger prompt sounded in his mind immediately after.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After making a choice, the scattered flesh and blood of the collapsed fish suddenly contracted, condensing into fish meat that fell down, which Zhong Yi caught using his Crimson Gang Qi Fate Soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next second, it was listed on the Exchange.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This strange fish had a hunting level of 12; it was a relatively common sea fish species in the Ascension Sea Domain, with limited value.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No analysis was needed; a single glance allowed him to judge its value.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the result of practice making perfect; every old angler had a clear price list for their catch in their heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sitting back down on the vine chair, he picked up the straw hat that had fallen to the ground and placed it back on his head, continuing to wait for the next big fish to take the bait.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze swept toward the guild chat box minimized in the upper left corner of his vision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guild he belonged to was very famous, known by forum players as one of the Three Great Mo Sects: Solitary Fishing on the Cold River Snow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The brothers inside could be called inventors, having turned simple fishing into something spectacular.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every so often, a new invention would appear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, the recently developed set of Evil Fishing Techniques; even someone as experienced as him found it particularly unorthodox.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This gameplay style was called the Self-Sacrifice Fishing Technique, which had no requirements for fishing gear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It only required Fishing Faction players to embed the \"Star Shift\" Fate Soul; once the bait was bitten, the stars and moon would shift, the big fish would come aboard, and the player would go into the sea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It required no contest of strength, nor any skill in playing the fish, truly a one-hit kill among fishing gameplay styles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were many other outrageous gameplay styles as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for Zhong Yi, he preferred this ordinary fishing Cultivation Mode he was currently using.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What he enjoyed was the fun of contending after the prey took the hook.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the players in the guild group were exchanging notes on today's haul, a chaotic battle of various fish catch photos, which Zhong Yi found extremely annoying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was because everything he had caught today was of ordinary quality, with no prey worthy of showing off or acting cool.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, a comment from a guild brother caught his attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ni Xuanliu: Brothers, is there any potential in the recently contained Gold Coin Fate Soul? At level 1, it gives an extra 8% yield; we list fish meat for trade every day, so I feel that embedding one will eventually pay for itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiong Ding: Stop joking; embedding it costs thirty thousand Sacrificial Power. The daily profit you earn isn't even enough to upgrade fishing gear, let alone seek extra returns. My suggestion is not to embed it in the early stage; consider it in the late stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wan Xiang: Fishing returns fluctuate too much. Assuming you can stabilize a daily profit of 300 points of Sacrificial Power from selling fish meat, the extra yield from the Gold Coin Fate Soul would be 24 points. With an early investment of 30,000 Sacrificial Power, it would take you 1,250 days to break even.
