Chapter 45: Chapter 44 Exchange_i

Translator: 549690339 |

The following day,

Mu Yuan logged directly into the Tai Xuan Covenant Platform, browsing various exchange items while pondering how to use his 3,000 contribution points.

“60 units of Black Ironstone are worth 3 Soul Crystal Coins. The platform prices it at 300 points too – not expensive, but no discount either,” Mu Yuan considered.

His Elemental Sphere was still not settled, so there was no need to buy this batch of Black Ironstone prematurely. However, he had to set aside these 300 contribution points.

The rest went towards the construction of various ordinary-level Miracle Buildings, which had already consumed all the subsidized Soul Crystals. He also contributed several hundred on his own. His Soul Sand was already running low, and the Mage Tower’s high crystal consumption was still unaccounted for.

He had to exchange for some Soul Crystal Coins.

After some thought, he began searching for remnant souls, sorting them by rank from low to high.

‘Gargoyle Soul Remnant (Rare One Star): 300 contribution points.’

‘Imperial Guard Soul Remnant (Rare One Star): 250 contribution points.’

‘Griffon Soul Remnant (Rare One Star): 350 contribution points.’

Mu Yuan paused for a while before changing the filter to show prices from low to high.

The first to appear was the Goblin Warrior’s Soul Remnant, priced at 199 contribution points.

Mu Yuan:

Then what? Anything lower? Why aren’t there any lower-grade remnant souls available?

Originally, he intended to exchange for some Falcon’s Residual Souls and depending on the situation, exchange for remnant souls of Little Skeletons and Slimes.

However, not to mention the Little Skeleton Remnant Soul, there were no Skeleton Soldier Soul Remnants either.

This isn’t right.

The Tai Xuan Covenant Platform claims that all rarities could be exchanged here, yet he couldn’t find any!

Perhaps the creator of this platform hadn’t anticipated that a lord would use precious contribution points to exchange for one-star remnant souls.

Most lords would only reluctantly use their precious contribution points to exchange for items they couldn’t purchase on the market.

Yet, what could Mu Yuan do? Was he supposed to keep his 3,000 contribution points for an occasion?

Of course, he could directly exchange his points for Soul Crystal Coins and then use Soul Sand to slowly purchase various remnant souls.

Indeed, that was his plan.

So he might as well exchange for some more Soul Crystal Coins.

“But, using all 3,000 contribution points to exchange for Soul Crystals is quite wasteful. Boss Jiang had emphasized that contribution points are hard-earned and new lords don’t have many opportunities to earn them.”

But at this stage, he couldn’t bring rare level treasures into the Eternal World, so what should he exchange for?

Mu Yuan pondered, patiently searching the platform.

His eyes lit up soon enough.

“That’s right, I almost forgot about Breakthrough Material. Gathering these according to one’s capability isn’t easy, and the market has been experiencing continuous demand. It couldn’t be more appropriate to exchange contribution points for it.”

Upon checking, the prices of Breakthrough Material ranged from 200 to 350 contribution points according to type. This includes one primary material and several auxiliary materials.

Presumably because Undead materials are rare, a set of Breakthrough Material costs 300 contribution points.

Whales must have prepared well in advance. If he forgot about this, and became stuck at his level later, it would be quite awkward.

Mu Yuan considered whether he should prepare around three to four sets?

After all, when the Lord’s Trial arrives, would it be safe if his home didn’t have three to four professional level combat powers? He found it too few, but he couldn’t exchange for many.

What he was grateful for was that, given the rankings of Dead Bone, Bone Two, and others, advancing to the professional level wouldn’t be a challenge. It was not like the older players’ three-star soldiers, where advancing to a professional level came with a chance of failure.

A few old players hadn’t been able to make it into the professional level for some time, which was due to this.

“Spending contribution points to exchange for breakthrough materials is actually a minor loss, since you can buy the stuff with soul sand anyway, as long as you’re ready to queue up for a bit.”

“But many old players can afford to buy breakthrough materials, but they can’t buy any rare-level remnantsouls. These are the treasures that are worth spending contribution points on.”

“However, rare-level remnantsouls are of no use to me. And as for other rare-level items…wait a minute, I think I can exchange something. Items of value that don’t need to be sent to the Eternal World, ones that can be used in reality.”

For instance, the most precious ones in Cultivation Sequence Treasures, that could directly enhance a player’s power.

RedBlood Fruit is among the most common ones. He needs something more precious, more remarkable to throw off the disgrace of being called weak. This way, he would feel more secure in reality and wouldn’t lag behind when exploring the outside of the Eternal World.

High-level resources like these are almost impossible to come across.

Soul sand is hard to buy; it’s where spending those contribution points becomes worthwhile.

These are indeed the treasures worth exchanging for.

Mu Yuan went on to search and finally focused on Jiuxuan Cultivation Liquid, a cultivation liquid prepared with various rare-level medicinal materials.

“This way, what I’m planning to exchange includes a lot of soul crystal coins, cultivation liquid, and several kinds of breakthrough materials… Wait a moment, seems like 3000 contribution points won’t be enough!”

Preserving some contribution points for future necessities, Mu Yuan directly exchanged six Soul Crystal Coins and Cultivation Liquid worth 1000 contribution points.

Now he’ll just wait for the delivery.

While waiting, Mu Yuan switched back to the game, ready for the daily grind.

He had his three battle falcons take turns flying towards the north, east, and west.

The main area for exploration was the north.

According to the information he had received, their location as new lords was in the northeastern part of the Tai Xuan alliance. Naturally, the further north they went, the wilder the region they were exploring, which meant richer resources.

However, the further they ventured, the more likely they’d encounter powerful monsters. They remained cautious at all times, scouting the situation carefully.

Mu Yuan made notes in his journal:

‘Based on Battle Falcon’s scout, today we expanded our map range by about three or four kilometers and discovered some new types of monsters: Ghouls, Jackal Men, and Harpies.’

‘These Harpies are enormous… I mean seriously ferocious. They’re a three-star monster, capable of flying and have long-ranged attack capabilities. One of the Battle Falcons almost got taken out. We must not approach that area.’

‘Today’s investigation of the Goblin Camp in the north turned out fruitless. There are too many Goblin Spearmen and they are too alert. Again, Battle Falcon nearly got his feathers plucked. I’ll keep this in mind for Jun.’

‘Falcon Three ventured deeper into the Poisonous Spider Forest and discovered a large number of massive venom spiders, roughly the size of a car. These venom spiders are three-star monsters but their size suggests their level isn’t low. They’re probably level 9 Great Perfection spiders. They’re guarded by smaller venom spiders, and Falcon Three almost got caught in their webs.’

Battle Falcons teeter on the brink of death every day. That’s why they’re known as the “luxuries of the game”.

Mu Yuan sketched on the draft map, marking important locations. He formulated his plan for the next few days.

There’s some bad news from today’s scouting – he lost track of that wandering ogre.

A wandering rare monster in the vicinity is always disconcerting. Fortunately…

‘Notice: Arrow Tower construction is complete. Please check, my lord.’

Finally, after half a day, the two arrow towers were built.

These defensive buildings, standing over ten meters high with a grey base and a brown top, finally appeared in his territory, giving him a sense of security.

After all, it turns out the arrows fired from these towers are even more potent than the ones launched by Bone Two and Bone Three. And they can be fired continually.

But…

Arrows are not free of charge.

Mu Yuan tried and found that the cost was about 100 arrows per Soul Crystal Coin, a bit pricey. He couldn’t afford to use them every day.

“Even though my territory seems safer and my Soul Crystal balance has just increased, why…. why am I feeling things are getting more expensive?”
