The Cockroach-like Girl Is My Beast-Chapter 426 - 397: Gifts and Top-Secret Information
This is because the Six-star Celestial Gate involves the transformation of talent, Sea of Spirit, and Contract Technique, which is a certain degree of finalization.
Take Kong Guofeng as an example.
He has a Purple Talent, but he did not complete the broken Dao Mark before becoming a True Man. He only completed one full Dao Mark upon ascension and engraved a second Dao Mark with True Intent fifty years later.
But if he were to go back and make up for his foundation, it might take a hundred years to even come close to building a second one.
Yet the Lin Guang before him is at least able to stack his foundation Dao Marks to six, or even higher, in the future.
This is why geniuses are the most treasured assets of each sect, why the annual provincial and national competitions can attract the attention of these True Men and giants, and they are even willing to invest substantial resources.
—Because as long as they are talented enough, no matter how many resources they consume at the mortal stage, they can double the return after breaking through to Six-star.
Whether in terms of the cost-effectiveness of resource investment or the combat power they can possess in the future, the more astounding the genius, as long as they do not fall, they can bring multiplied returns in the future.
The reason why the major sects and families are strong and have been passed down for so long is largely because they have the means to evolve their geniuses’ talents, making them leap forward from an already high starting point, transcend themselves, and have enough Divine Objects and resources to use these means.
However, it is imaginable that these means are often unreplicable, generally come with consumptive requirements, or require a massive amount of resources, hence being the absolute core competitiveness of each sect and faction.
Moreover... there is a limit to this engraving. Once the limit is reached, it can’t go any further.
Otherwise, why would Lin Qingxuan choose to break through Six-star with six Dao Marks?
Is it because he doesn’t want more?
He is even currently stuck at the Six-star Peak, perhaps because he is trying to mend his foundation—because it’s even harder to make up for when reaching Seven-star due to its vast scale.
Kong Guofeng showed a serious expression: "Then..."
In the next moment, he waved his right hand, and twenty-six blue-purple cards appeared on the coffee table.
These cards looked like bank cards with the Great Xia Bank logo, but with fluctuations similar to the Ring of Void.
Lin Guang recognized these cards.
They are indeed bank cards, but in fact, they are also fine Spatial Spiritual Artifacts issued by the Great Xia Bank, available in blue and purple, corresponding to Tier Four and Tier Five, respectively. Although the space is small, they can contain high-level Spiritual Materials and Spiritual Artifacts, specifically for carrying valuable things.
Some bank cards are even custom-made; for instance, Lin Guang immediately noticed a purple card engraved with the symbol representing the Jiang Family’s Mystical Technique, "Wave Unceasing."
"These are gifts from the families of those geniuses you saved. Since you were unconscious before, they left them with me."
Kong Guofeng reported an astonishing wealth: "Over six hundred Tier Four Spiritual Materials, eighty-two Tier Five Spiritual Materials, nineteen Six-star Spiritual Materials, all of blue grade and above, plus several Ethereal Crystals and a total of over forty-six million Credit Points."
"Hiss—"
This time, it was Lin Guang’s turn to gasp, even Vishdair’s jaw was about to drop. She grabbed Lin Guang’s shoulder and shook it for a long time: "*Kazdail’s curse* A bunch of rich tycoons!"
She struggled together with Lin Guang during the hardest times, knowing that during their most impoverished days, Lin Guang hesitated over the cost-effectiveness of buying a Tier Four Purple Spiritual Material and finally chose a True Waterfall for ten thousand Credit Points to awaken her Beast Soul Awakening ability.
Over forty-six million Credit Points!
More than four billion Daxia Coins!
And even without mentioning the money, with so many Spiritual Materials, if traded, they could buy several Six-star Divine Objects!
"Credit Points don’t really matter much, as advanced resources generally don’t use Credit Points as currency. Many forces have their own exchange methods, which also require permissions and similar things."
Kong Guofeng seemed somewhat unsatisfied, slightly frowning: "On average, not every force gave Six-star Spiritual Materials, and there wasn’t a single piece of Tier Seven Spiritual Materials, which I actually think is a bit less."
"But those are complete strategic materials, and most of these forces, although they have vast assets, they have also spent a lot of resources nurturing this generation of geniuses, and their liquid assets aren’t particularly abundant. Taking out this much at once is already quite good."
"More importantly, there are also their gratitude and friendship. It’s not hard to ask some True Man to take action, and it doesn’t cost much."
"Wherever you go in Fenghai Province in the future, there should be people welcoming you with open arms."
"You’ll forever be the highest-grade customer in their various industries."
Kong Guofeng hinted: "In the future, if you want to discuss cooperation or have research results that need monetization, it will be much more convenient."
—Lin Guang also has the title of Intermediate Researcher, and there is a high chance that he is a "Spirit-Touched."
"And this is what you requested."
Kong Guofeng waved his hand, and a palm-sized object appeared in Lin Guang’s hand, which was a golden amber with a tiny flame flickering inside.
[Name: Heaven-Burning Flame (Sealed)]
[Introduction: The top-tier, Tier Five Purple Spiritual Material, predominantly formed from the essence of a quasi-Beast King that failed to advance to Tier Six, sealed with a Secret Technique, extremely valuable.]
[It’s said that the Beast King almost succeeded in advancing in its lifetime, and if released, it could burn the entire azure sky.]
[Hint: It can be used for the evolution of "Vishdair," with a very high compatibility.]
Vishdair’s attention was immediately drawn, even through the amber, she could feel the terrifying power inside.
Lin Guang also understood: "Could this be..."
"Yes." Kong Guofeng’s lips curled slightly, "This is the Spiritual Material the Jiang Family offered in exchange for the Cold Water Dragon King’s Eyes."
Vishdair instantly showed an excited expression.
This means that once that Heart of the Earl of Purgatory is obtained, Lin Guang can begin preparing Vishdair’s body for evolution.
"That’s about it."
"Director Kong, thank you for making this trip for me."
"No need for that, it’s what I should do."
Kong Guofeng sighed, "Publicly, I should be glad I gave you the spot, for without you at Celestial Ladder Mountain this time, perhaps twenty geniuses of Fenghai Province would have fallen there."
"But privately, I did put you in such a dangerous situation, and if I didn’t do anything for you, I really wouldn’t feel at ease."
He looked at Lin Guang: "If you decide to use your talent, then not only these Spiritual Materials now, but I will also mobilize all the resources I can from Great Xia."
Of course, Great Xia also has such means to engrave Dao Marks and may be willing to let Lin Guang use them.
However... that itself is a massive resource consumption.
Since Lin Guang has his own inheritance, with highly efficient absorption.
Wouldn’t it be better to exchange these resources for something else directly?
Lin Guang took a deep breath and then exhaled: "Thank you, True Man Kong."
Kong Guofeng recalled something and suddenly spoke: "By the way, the Spirit Alliance might also assist you to some extent."
"This force... is mysterious, although not big in Zhen Sheng City, it seems to have members everywhere."
"Moreover, they have favored you and started investing in you from a very early time."
"If needed, use this resource as well."
"Don’t be afraid of indebtedness, sometimes the more you owe, the less others want anything to happen to you."
Lin Guang paused for a moment, then slightly nodded.
"Oh, and there is one last thing."
In the next moment, he suddenly took out a thick stack of documents and handed them to Lin Guang.
The three young women, including Lin Guang, were slightly stunned.
"These are the materials about the otherworldly catastrophe that I gathered using all my contacts and resources."
Kong Guofeng’s expression became slightly grim: "The information also contains top secrets about a certain giant."
