Chapter 127: The Black Hearted System Prices? A Visit to the Handyman Disciples Area

After a long while, Yu Liang finally recovered from the sheer shock of the Tier 9 introduction.

Instead of feeling despair at the insurmountable gap between his current realm and the peak of existence, he actually found himself in an absolutely good mood. Knowing that the ceiling of power was this high meant that his potential was truly limitless.

He has new goals now. The heavens were not the limit, they were just the starting line.

Calming his racing heart, he mentally commanded, ’Show me the purchasing interface. How do I buy these things?’

The screen rippled, and a new set of rules appeared.

[ Purchasing Rules: ]

[ 1. Miscellaneous Items can be purchased directly using Spiritual Stones ]

[ 2. Items can also be purchased using System Points ]

[ Exchange Rate: 1 System Point = 100,000,000,000,000 (100 Trillion) Low Grade Spiritual Stones ]

Yu Liang’s smile instantly froze.

His mind went completely blank as he stared at that string of zeros. He quickly did the math in his head.

The exchange rate for spiritual stones was fixed. 1000 Low-Grade Spiritual Stones equaled 1 Mid Grade Spiritual Stone. 1,000 Mid Grade Spiritual Stones equaled 1 High Grade Spiritual Stone.

Which meant... 1 System Point was equal to 100,000,000 ( 100 Million ) High Grade Spiritual Stones!

He currently had about 0 ( Zero ) of any Grade Spiritual Stones in his spatial ring.

That wasn’t even a fraction of a single System Point.

Looking at that astronomical exchange rate, a strong, overwhelming urge to curse the system surged in his chest. ’100 trillion?! You’re robbing me! Even the most black hearted merchant in the world wouldn’t dare charge this much! You black hearted, exploitative—’

He opened his mouth to let out a string of profanities, but Yu Liang instantly snapped his mouth shut, swallowing the curse back down his throat. ’Wait a minute. This prices... seems about right, actually. Considering how rare these resources are, I guess I shouldn’t have expected them to be cheap.’

The price wasn’t actually unreasonable. The resources listed in the system store were clearly far beyond what Yu had encountered in the outside world. Even the Lower Tier items were made from materials that were extremely rare and the Higher Tier ones were treasures he couldn’t even properly identify. If anything, expecting them to be cheap just because they came from the system was unreasonable.

The system wasn’t selling some ordinary cultivation resources.... Well it is but expect that every item had a value far beyond what ordinary cultivators could imagine. Once he thought about it carefully, the prices no longer seemed outrageous. They were simply proportional to the rarity and value of the resources themselves.

If cultivators knew that such treasures could be obtained simply by spending enough spiritual stones, the entire cultivation world would probably go crazy. They would sell whatever they could get their hands on just to exchange it for resources of this level. Some might even sell their homes, inheritances, treasures, and everything they had accumulated over their entire lives.

There would always be people desperate enough to go even further, willing to sell their freedom or even themselves if that was what it took to obtain a chance at treasures that could completely change their fate.

He took a deep, stabilizing breath, forcing his emotions to settle. Once his mind was clear, he looked at the items again, this time focusing on their actual price tags.

The High Tier items weren’t priced in billions of System Points; they were priced in the Trillions. For example let’s take a look at [ Physique ] section.

[ Azure Spirit Physique ] — 1 Trillion System Points

[ Heavenly Thunder Physique ] — 3 Trillion System Points

[ Nine Yang Golden Physique ] — 10 Trillion System Points

[ Ancient Battle Physique ] — 30 Trillion System Points

[ Void Spirit Physique ] — 100 Trillion System Points

[ Celestial Star Physique ] — 300 Trillion System Points

[ Chaos Spirit Physique ] — 1 Quadrillion System Points

[ Primordial Battle Physique ] — 3 Quadrillion System Points

[ Heavenly Dao Physique ] — 10 Quadrillion System Points

[ Immortal Origin Physique ] — 30 Quadrillion System Points

[ Myriad Dao Physique ] — 100 Quadrillion System Points

[ Primordial Immortal Physique ] — 1 Quintillion System Points

[ Immortal Heaven Physique ] — 1 Quintillion Points

[ Eternal Chaos Godbody ] — 1 Quintillion Points

[ Eternal Divine Physique ] — 10 Quintillion System Points

[ Chaos Origin Divine Body ] — 100 Quintillion System Points

[ Primordial Heaven-Devouring Physique ] — 100 Quintillion Points

[ Supreme Primordial Physique ] — 1 Sextillion System Points

[ Transcendent Dao Physique ] — 1 Sextillion Points

And many more. At first glance, it seemed impossibly expensive. But each is more heaven defying than the previous one and as he went further while reading the functions of the cheaper ones, yet still heaven defying items that required System Points, his perspective completely shifted.

He checked the "lowest" tier of System Point items, which were priced between 100 and 200 SP.

[Tier 5: Soul Washing Lotus Seed]

[ Price: 100 SP ]

[ Function: Completely purifies the soul, removing all heart demons. Guarantees a 100% success rate for the next major realm breakthrough without any inner demon interference ]

[Tier 7: Void Shifting Compass]

[ Price: 150 SP ]

[ Function: A one time use artifact. Allows the user to instantly teleport across a distance of up to ten thousand miles, completely bypassing all spatial locks, blood tracking and formations below Tier 8 ]

[ Tier 7: Dragon Elephant Marrow Cleansing Pill ]

[ Price: 200 SP ]

[ Function: Restructures mortal flesh into a divine body. Grants the physical strength of 100 Tier 3 Mid Grade Elephants Spirit Beast and grants absolute immunity to all Tier 3 and below elemental and physical damages ]

Staring at these three items, Yu Liang’s eyes grew incredibly bright.

He finally realized that his money and his future points would be spent very, very, very well.

No amount of money in the world could buy these things. They literally defied the heavens itself. He thought back to his interactions with Mei Hua. Even with her immense wealth, her vast background and her access to the continent’s top notch auction houses, during their conversation he had never even heard of her mention such items.

The world had similar concepts, like cleansing pills or teleportation talismans, but their functions were a million times worse and came with massive limitations.

These System Store items were practically flawless. They were the true treasures of the higher realms.

"Even if it costs millions of points... it’s worth it," Yu Liang muttered, his greed and ambition fully ignited. "I just need to earn more points."

With a thought he offset the system panel, the blue light faded from his vision.

He stood up and stretched his body. He had been cooped up in his courtyard for too long. It had been several months since he last visited his friends in the Handyman disciples’ area.

It was time to go see them and catch up.

But more importantly, he needed to figure out how to earn System Points like crazy.

The system’s rebate function was the key.

He needed to spend massive amounts of wealth to trigger the rebates and convert them into points.

"I need to go on a shopping spree continuously from now on," Yu Liang smiled. "Or better yet, I need to find a way to spend on anything."

Adjusting his robes, Yu Liang pushed open the door and stepped out into the sunlight, heading toward the lowest, most impoverished area of the Cloudwater Sect.
