Chapter 225 - 145: Crazy Exchange

Chapter 225: Chapter 145: Crazy Exchange

In addition to handling many trivial matters, he had also explored two First Level Secret Realms in rapid, high-intensity succession.

Before heading to Longya City, Zhong Yi planned to rest well for a few days.

The Flowing Soul Soil Zhong Yi had accumulated wasn’t enough to act as a medium for the Resurrection Celestial Lord to absorb the Oasis Mandala and the Vitality Spring.

After taking a shower, Zhong Yi held Lan Po and Ice Glaze and went to bed early.

Lan Po and Ice Glaze purred contentedly in his arms.

Zhong Yi found the sound quite soothing, helping him fall asleep.

Early the next morning, Shen Xuan went to take his Celestial Destiny Seeker rating assessment.

After Shen Xuan demonstrated his ability to make poison erupt instantaneously using his Beastmaster Talent, his rating was immediately approved.

Zhong Yi and Shen Xuan had arranged to go to the Celestial Destiny Society together.

Shen Xuan wanted to use the 15,000 Celestial Destiny Points he had just obtained to exchange for a Poison Absorption Whale Pill.

Zhong Yi, for his part, planned to use his 25,000 Celestial Destiny Points to exchange for some Guardian Beasts worth cultivating or other rare materials.

Previously, when Zhong Yi only had 1,000 Celestial Destiny Points, his options in the Celestial Destiny Society’s Treasure Vault had been very limited.

But now, he had significantly more options.

When Zhong Yi and Shen Xuan arrived at the Celestial Destiny Society, they discovered Ye Futu was hosting Bai Chen.

Before Ye Futu could even speak upon seeing Zhong Yi and Shen Xuan, Bai Chen eagerly approached them, smiling as he spoke.

"Young Master Zhong, Young Master Shen, I didn’t expect to run into you both here. What a coincidence."

"The Inspector from the Celestial Destiny Society headquarters just arrived today, so I assume you both must have received your Potential Points."

"I still have quite a few unused Potential Points. If you see something you like later and don’t have enough points, just let me know."

"I’ll let you use my Potential Points!"

Ye Futu had been a bit curious about what exactly Bai Chen was doing at the Celestial Destiny Society today.

Bai Chen had arrived early this morning and stayed for three or four hours with no intention of leaving.

After all, Bai Chen rarely visited the Celestial Destiny Society, let alone lingered for so long.

Now, Ye Futu finally understood why Bai Chen had come to the Celestial Destiny Society so early in the morning.

Apparently, Bai Chen knew that today was the first time Zhong Yi and Shen Xuan were receiving Potential Points and that they would likely come to the Celestial Destiny Society to trade for resources.

He was lying in wait for Zhong Yi and Shen Xuan to appear.

Bai Chen’s intention to befriend Zhong Yi and Shen Xuan was perfectly clear!

Ye Futu had always been a man skilled at networking and seizing opportunities.

Aside from his deep-seated malice toward the Bizarre, Ye Futu was exceptionally cordial with every Celestial Destiny Seeker.

He was the same even toward the deputies and team members of the Celestial Destiny Seekers.

In Ye Futu’s opinion, it was a very clever move for Bai Chen, a Celestial Destiny Seeker with S-level potential, to put such effort into befriending Zhong Yi and Shen Xuan.

Ye Futu stepped forward to greet Zhong Yi and Shen Xuan, choosing not to expose Bai Chen’s true intentions.

Bai Chen came from the Bai Family and had never been short on resources.

Ever since becoming a Celestial Destiny Seeker, Bai Chen had never used his Celestial Destiny Points.

Although Bai Chen only earned 5,000 Celestial Destiny Points each year, he could lend Zhong Yi and Shen Xuan over thirty thousand points if they needed to borrow any.

Over the years, not only had Bai Chen never used his Celestial Destiny Points, but he had also frequently sold his own resources through the Celestial Destiny Society.

Zhong Yi and Shen Xuan both smiled and returned the greetings to Bai Chen and Ye Futu.

After greeting them, Shen Xuan fell silent.

Shen Xuan disliked socializing and had never considered striking out on his own to build his own faction.

Shen Xuan had always seen himself as Zhong Yi’s servant, and a servant’s only duty was to stay by his master’s side.

’As for social matters, that’s naturally the job of the master, Zhong Yi.’

It wasn’t just Bai Chen who wanted to befriend Zhong Yi and Shen Xuan; Zhong Yi was also interested in getting to know Bai Chen, one of Starlight City’s new-generation Celestial Destiny Seekers.

Zhong Yi had a good impression of Bai Chen, and there was no harm in being on good terms with him.

Furthermore, the Bai Family specialized in cultivating plant-type Guardian Beasts.

Since Zhong Yi was cultivating a Gardener Worm, there might be opportunities to collaborate with the Bai Family in the future.

The Gardener Worm was just a new beginning, not the end.

With Zhong Yi’s cultivation, the Gardener Worm would eventually evolve into a Summer Worm.

"Young Master Bai, we did come here today planning to exchange for some resources from the Celestial Destiny Society’s Treasure Vault."

"Since you’ve made the offer, if we’re really short on Celestial Destiny Points, Ah Xuan and I won’t hesitate to ask."

With that, Zhong Yi turned to Ye Futu.

"Elder Ye, we’ll have to trouble you to show Ah Xuan and me the available resources today."

"I saw a Poison Absorption Whale Pill in the Treasure Vault last time I was here, and Ah Xuan needs it."

"Elder Ye, could you please help Ah Xuan exchange his points for the Poison Absorption Whale Pill first?"

Ye Futu had heard a bit about Shen Xuan’s situation and knew he had a Poison Attribute Order Beast.

For a Poison Attribute Order Beast, a Poison Absorption Whale Pill was indeed an excellent material.

"Lord Suide achieved an SS Level potential rating. The 15,000 Potential Points he has are just enough to exchange for one Poison Absorption Whale Pill."

"In the last few days, there have only been seventeen transactions for items worth over ten thousand Potential Points."

"The Poison Absorption Whale Pill wasn’t among them, so it’s definitely still in stock."

After Ye Futu deducted the Celestial Destiny Points from Shen Xuan’s account and handed him the Poison Absorption Whale Pill, he then began showing Zhong Yi the available items in the VIP room.

"Lord Su Sheng, you have 25,000 Potential Points. Should I quickly browse through all the items under 25,000 points for you?"

"Or do you already have something specific in mind that I can help you exchange for now?"

"The Fairy Flashing Phosphorus Flood Dragon’s Dragon Crystal that you mentioned last time is currently out of stock in the Treasure Vault."

"We just exchanged contact information. If a Fairy Flashing Phosphorus Flood Dragon’s Dragon Crystal shows up in the Treasure Vault, I’ll use my authority to acquire it for you immediately and then notify you to come pick it up."

Zhong Yi smiled, thanked Ye Futu, and then said,

"You should have a good stock of Flashing Pearl Fish. I’d like to exchange for twenty."

Shortly after arriving in the Guardian Beast World, Zhong Yi had acquired a Sea Rong Wood Sea from a Fantasy Tier Peak Bizarre. That creature’s Deceit Beast had been a Blood Thread Puppet.

Even back then, Zhong Yi had wanted to raise some Flashing Pearl Fish in the Sea Rong Wood Sea.

The Sea Rong Wood Sea would provide an excellent habitat for the Flashing Pearl Fish.

Keeping Flashing Pearl Fish in one’s Soul Base accelerates the recovery of Soul Power.

In the game, Flashing Pearl Fish could be bought directly from the shop with Gold Coins, costing 30 RMB each.

If you bought the minor and major monthly passes, you would get one or two free Flashing Pearl Fish for every 30-day login streak.

In the game, the Flashing Pearl Fish was a dime-a-dozen Guardian Beast.

But in the actual Guardian Beast World, the Flashing Pearl Fish was extremely rare and almost completely monopolized by the top factions.

Even well-established factions had to pull strings with the top powers just to acquire them.

When Zhong Yi was here last, he had seen that each Flashing Pearl Fish cost 300 Potential Points to redeem.

In terms of Alliance Coins, a single Flashing Pearl Fish was worth over ten million.

A typical Guardian Beast Master with ten million Federation Coins would spend it all on cultivating their Guardian Beasts. Who would waste so much capital just to slightly boost their Soul Power recovery speed?

"Lord Su Sheng, we have plenty of Flashing Pearl Fish in stock."

"Among our current stock of Flashing Pearl Fish, I recall that several are pregnant females."

"These pregnant females cost the same number of Potential Points as the regular ones. I can help you select the pregnant ones and pair them with a few males."

"If you’re willing to hire a Fifth Level Creator to help raise these females, you should be able to harvest quite a few Flashing Pearl Fish fry."

The reason Flashing Pearl Fish are so expensive is that breeding them requires the resources of a Five-finger Creator.

Four-finger Creators can’t concoct the necessary Water Source Potions, so they can’t help the Flashing Pearl Fish eggs hatch.

That’s what makes the price of Flashing Pearl Fish so high!
