Path of Alchemy Mastery-Chapter 445 - 458: Treasure Exchange
Chapter 445: Chapter 458: Treasure Exchange
Facing the White Tiger Knight exuding a faint pressure, Mu Can also helplessly shook his head.
He no longer had time to study the differences between the White Tiger Knight and the other statues.
Mystic Dragon Nine Revolutions activated, he charged straight ahead. In the time it takes an incense stick to burn, the White Tiger Knight collapsed softly, its light flashed past and disappeared, leaving only a small crystal on the ground.
"This is just one-ninth of it, sigh!" Mu Can sighed, looking at Wang Cai who was still studying the Array around them.
"It’s instant, instant." Wang Cai would become deeply absorbed in his work, whenever they reached a new level, Wang Cai would focus intently on observing the Array on the ceiling.
"You are a dog, why are you meowing like a cat?" Mu Can couldn’t help but laugh and cry at Wang Cai.
"What do you know, do you realize that the Arrays on each floor are different, each serving distinct functions, it’s truly magical."
Wang Cai turned his head to look at Mu Can and said.
"Sigh, saying this doesn’t make you move, you big dumb brute that only knows how to fight." Wang Cai even expressed his disdain in his comment.
"Damn, are you itching for a beating?" Mu Can almost spewed out a mouthful of old blood, this dog was really unreasonable, clearly they were climbing the Sky Tower together, not only was Mu Can responsible for all the fighting, but Wang Cai also mocked him.
"Alright, you only know fighting and I won’t blame you for that. When we return to the New World, I’ll set up a few Arrays for you, then those inside can double their efficiency in cultivation," said Wang Cai confidently.
"Right, and I’ll also carve out a special space specifically for imprisoning those captured evil demons from other domains, and set up some space for you to arrange various Killing Arrays. When we encounter an enemy, I’ll just drag them in and gang up on them," Mu Can nodded and laughed.
No wonder everyone wanted their own personal world, fighting within it basically secured an invincible position.
"Be careful, if the opponent is too powerful, don’t bring them into the New World, otherwise if they rupture your world, you won’t be laughing anymore," Wang Cai threw a dampener, glancing at the proud Mu Can.
"Huh?" Mu Can’s laughter stopped abruptly.
"Your luck is really good; if it weren’t for the Reincarnation Pearl, even if you got a World Seed, you’d need to find Chaos Space to release it, but now, you kiddo are just running around with a piece of world, incomparable to others," Wang Cai looked at Mu Can and commented.
Just as Wang Cai had said, Mu Can had always been lucky.
If he didn’t have the Reincarnation Pearl, he would have needed to reach the Void Level at least to activate his Interface Seed, which could only sprout into a real world if it was in Chaos Seeds, yet Mu Can activated it during his Martial Saint stage and was able to travel around with it, like having a cheat active.
Think about it, the continuous Spiritual Power in the New World was like the biggest supplement, almost allowing Mu Can’s Spiritual Power to never dry up, of course, that would be after that world grows into a real Interface.
"Hehe, luck is also part of the strength," Mu Can smiled sheepishly, wondering if Donghuang would vomit blood if he saw this smile.
"Young man, don’t miss out as you pass by, the treasures you need can all be found here."
"Holy smokes, when did this old man appear?" The sudden voice startled Mu Can, who turned his head and saw an old man sitting next to a stall by the staircase, looking helplessly at him.
"Young man, this old man has collected countless treasures traveling through the north and south, come and see if there’s anything you need," the old man, seeing that he had captured Mu Can’s attention, energetically started hawking his goods.
"I really want to see what treasures you have," Wang Cai was the first to run over.
Mu Can observed the elder, suddenly realizing that this elder, like the Gatekeepers he had defeated before, was probably created by the Three Realms initially, but differently, there seemed to be a soul existing inside this old man.
"Who are you?" Mu Can tried to communicate with the elder, not knowing if it would work, but trying anyway.
"In this vast universe, I have a renowned title, Gabriel."
"That’s a strange name, there are no surnames like Gabriel in the Mortal World," Mu Can looked at the old man, puzzled.
"What do you know, this is a Western surname, you’ll understand when you reach the Supreme Interface, but this old man looks rather foolish and simple," Wang Cai scrutinized the items on the stall, wanting to touch them, but found what seemed to be a protective layer outside.
"Don’t touch if you’re not buying, pay first if you want to see, no cheating here, prices are clearly marked," the elder seemed not to hear Wang Cai’s words, but because Wang Cai touched the protective Array, changed his script.
"I got it," Mu Can was still observing the elder.
"What’s going on here?" Wang Cai vigorously slapped the barrier with his huge paw, but found it completely ineffective.
"Stop slapping, if I’m not wrong this barrier should be connected to the entire Sky Tower, you can’t break it," Mu Can spoke up.
"So, what exactly is going on?" Wang Cai, seeing so many treasures, was itching uncontrollably, dying to take them all away and store them in the New World.
"This old man should be like the Gatekeepers we defeated before, all parts of this Sky Tower, but this old man is probably responsible for selling and exchanging treasures," Mu Can voiced his conjecture.
"Let’s just try and see, shall we?" Wang Cai pulled out some Spirit Crystals and a Demon Crystal, all placed before the elder, but the elder didn’t even cast a glance his way.
"Fair price for both young and old, announcing a grand clearance sale of treasures obtained from traveling across the Four Seas." The elder kept calling out on his own.
Mu Can took out two crystals from his pocket.
These were crystals left on the ground after he defeated a Gatekeeper, and not every Gatekeeper left behind such crystals.
Indeed, when Mu Can took out the crystals, the elder’s expression finally changed.
The face that previously had no expression now finally switched to a full-faced smile looking at Mu Can.
"Does this young hero need anything? Honest prices, no deception here at my shop."
"What do you have here?" Mu Can knew these crystals from defeating Gatekeepers must have some use, but he hadn’t anticipated this particular one.
"Take a look." The elder waved his hand grandly and the barrier over the stall instantly disappeared.
Seeing the barrier disappear, Wang Cai quickly stretched out his large paw, trying to grab a treasure.
"Ah ah ah ah ah..."
A big black dog, its fur standing on end and giving off bursts of meaty fragrance, suddenly appeared beside Mu Can.
"Don’t touch if you’re not buying." The elder didn’t even look at the electrocuted Wang Cai, speaking coldly.
"Hahaha, got a shock, didn’t you?" Mu Can laughed heartily; this dog had been acting rather inflated lately, so a little lesson wouldn’t hurt.
"How much is this?" Mu Can gently picked up a palm-sized boat and asked.
"Drifting Flying Boat, priced at 3 Divine Crystals." Unlike Wang Cai’s fate, Mu Can picking up the flying boat didn’t end with a shock, probably because he was holding what they called Divine Crystals.
"What’s its use?" Mu Can felt it must be similar to other flying boats, but anything placed here couldn’t be ordinary.
"Activated by Spiritual Power, its flying speed matches the full speed of Void Level flight," explained the elder.
"Give me a Divine Crystal." Wang Cai asked Mu Can for a Divine Crystal.
With a large paw clutching the Spirit Crystal, he then picked up an item next to it—a umbrella.
"Old man, how does this work? How much?" Wang Cai had no fondness for this old man, although he lacked a soul, he remembered everything the old man had done to him.
"Thousand Mechanism Umbrella, priced at 5 Divine Crystals, can withstand Void Level attacks, immune to all attacks below Void Level," the elder gave out the price honestly without targeting Wang Cai this time.
"You don’t need to hold a grudge against him; they all operate based on pre-set rules. You get shocked if you don’t have Divine Crystals," Mu Can said, looking at Wang Cai grinding his teeth in annoyance.
"Um, let me try if I can just take it away." Wang Cai’s eyes shifted, speaking out.
Wang Cai, not one to be at a loss, had just been shocked quite unnervingly, and had already thought of getting back at him.
This Thousand Mechanism Umbrella might not be much in the Supreme Interface, but in the Three Realms, it’s considered a treasure.
A Cultivator holding such an umbrella would almost be invincible; immune to all attacks below Void Level, and there are no Void Level beings in the Three Realms now.
"Can’t take it, seems like it’s integrated with the entire Sky Tower," Wang Cai tried hard for a while but eventually gave up.
If one wanted to take it, they would have to collect the entire Sky Tower, but clearly, that’s impossible.
"Don’t worry, the Lord of the Three Realms has definitely calculated everything, there’s no way he would let you take it away so easily," Mu Can looked at Wang Cai and said.
To obtain the treasures inside, one must follow the rules of the Sky Tower, honestly fighting up one level after another, collecting Divine Crystals.
"But there’s one problem, I’ve fought up to here, and have only collected three so-called Divine Crystals, hardly enough to exchange for the better treasures here." Mu Can still had something he couldn’t understand.
Such items aren’t guaranteed drops, how could they be used for trading?
If one’s luck isn’t good, even if they fought through the entire Sky Tower, they might end up with just a few, then what’s the use?
But the elder did not answer his question, just quietly sitting there, waiting for Mu Can to pick a treasure.
"Let’s go." Mu Can put down the treasure in his hand and left this level with Wang Cai.
