Chapter 2858 Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower!

Gold and green light swirled around this seed, eventually morphing into a partially tangible imprint on the surface of the seed.

Zhan Lu smiled when he saw that.

With such a change to the Holy Presence Bodhi seed, it meant that Winter was truly a Holy Spirit expert.

However, Winter had enabled the Holy Presence Bodhi to germinate almost too quickly! This speed went beyond Zhan Lu’s comprehension.

After thinking about this, Zhan Lu attributed this to the Holy Presence Bodhi being special or more sensitive to Holy Spirit experts.

Zhan Lu did not link the cause to Winter. After all, if it was because of Winter, it would mean that the holy spirit in his divine kingdom was terrifyingly powerful!

With such power, it was also slightly embarrassing for Fortune Treasure Palace to bestow him with the title of a special honor guest.

Winter toyed with the germinated Holy Presence Bodhi in his hand before tossing it to Zhan Lu.

After examining the germinated Holy Presence Bodhi, Zhan Lu took out a special plant-type fey and handed it to Lin Yuan.

“Young Master Lin, this is a special identification pass that Fortune Treasure Palace gives to our special honor guests. It’s called the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower. It’s a specialty fey of Fortune Treasure Palace. Not only can it keep records, but it can also be used to communicate with Fortune Treasure Palace. It will display the rewards for tasks, and tasks can also be assigned directly through it.”

The plant that Zhan Lu had handed to Lin Yuan resembled an illusion. The crystal was light green at the bottom, and the top gleamed with purple light. It was covered with a bush of roots. The crystal would occasionally move its roots, indicating that this horseshoe-shaped fleshy plant was brimming with vitality.

Lin Yuan was very interested in the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower. The main reason for this was that it could be used as a transmission fey. Although its functions could not match up to that of the Thoughts Letter Paper, it did have the advantage of being able to facilitate communication over long distances.

Zhan Lu mentioned that this was a specialty fey of Fortune Treasure Palace. If this was something that Fortune Treasure Palace only gave their special honor guests, they definitely would not include it in their list of tradable resources.

Lin Yuan received the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower and used True Data to check on it.

This was when he saw that it was only Sovereign/Immortal!

Currently, it was easy for Lin Yuan to use his resources to nurture a Sovereign/Immortal fey. Lin Yuan felt that nurturing the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower would allow him to solve his problem of communicating with Sky City.

Moreover, the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower’s grade could definitely be evolved. This meant that its functions would definitely be able to grow and even become more outstanding.

In order to solve the issue of communicating with Sky City, Lin Yuan only needed to nurture two of the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flowers. Sky City’s other members could communicate using the Thoughts Letter Paper and did not require the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower.

“Mr. Zhan, this Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower should be a child ramet, right? I can sense that it is unidirectionally linked to another Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower but isn’t linked to any other Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flowers.”

Zhan Lu turned to Lin Yuan and replied, “Young Master Lin, you’re right. This is just a child ramet of the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower. It is only linked to the ortet. If you’re interested, I can give you a few young Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flowers. They haven’t been linked to the ortet and can be nurtured into ortets themselves.”

Fortune Treasure Palace was using the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower to contact their special honor guests for their own sakes. They would not allow the special honor guests to contact each other as it would likely cause Fortune Treasure Palace to become excluded from the transactions.

Fortune Treasure Palace would never do something like this that would harm themselves!

When the special honor guests saw the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower, many of them became interested in it, just like Lin Yuan was. Some of them were extremely unreasonable and would even ask them to give them the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower as well as tell them how it was nurtured.

In order to avoid issues, Fortune Treasure Palace permitted the young plants to be given as gifts.

Young Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flowers could indeed be nurtured into ortets. However, it came at an enormous cost and required special nurturing techniques. Fortune Treasure Palace would never reveal such special techniques.

Every powerful faction had Creators who could evolve lifeforms as well as manipulate pure spirit qi and various types of energy. Each Creator had their own unique methods.

Fortune Treasure Palace’s Creators only stumbled upon the method of nurturing the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower by accident.

Fortune Treasure Palace was unafraid of other factions’ Creators studying the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower. They were sound in their confidence and were thus willing to give the young Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flowers to their special honor guests.

Lin Yuan replied with a smile, “Thank you! But might I ask how many chips it will cost for me to trade for a Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower ortet?”

Lin Yuan’s words stunned Zhan Lu. This was the first time he had received such a request.

Technically, the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower was also a type of resource, and it was possible to trade for it using chips!

However, Fortune Treasure Palace’s Creators were unlikely to be willing to nurture another Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower. It also took far too long to nurture one!

Creators held high status in any faction they were part of. Even the strongest faction placed their Creators on a pedestal.

The Creators’ will was more important than profits.

Zhan Lu asked hesitantly, “Young Master Lin, are you really going to use chips to trade for a Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower ortet? If you are sincere, I will submit a request. I’m sure you’re aware that this trade will involve the revered Creators. Even if the deal is made, the timeline will be determined by the Creators!”

After Lin Yuan used True Data to examine the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower, he was able to uncover the method of nurturing the ortet. There was no need for him to trade with Fortune Treasure Palace or bother the Creators that Zhan Lu spoke of.

This was not the first time that Lin Yuan had heard the term ‘Creator’.

Lin Yuan, the Moon Empress, Wen Yu, Zong Ze, Gu Lang, and even the army of Hundred Questions Beasts could be considered Creators.

In truth, Creators were the equivalent of Creation Masters. The only thing that was different was the name of the title.

In the Sky Beyond the Clouds, Creators were more revered than they were in the main world.

This was firstly because of the enormous population in the Sky Beyond the Clouds and the relatively small number of Creators.

Secondly, unlike in the main world, the Sky Beyond the Clouds’ Creators did not appear in public often.

In order to grow, Creators needed to use many resources. They preferred to remain in a stable faction from which they could receive a steady supply of resources.

Hence, the resources produced by the Creators all went to the factions and rarely landed in the hands of outsiders.

As a result, Creators enjoyed high statuses both in the outside world and in their own factions.

Aside from possessing high positions, the Creators would also not be endangered by the fighting between factions.

When two factions were locked in a bitter battle, the Creators could choose to join the victorious faction if their original faction was defeated. Their status and treatment would not differ much.

Moreover, Creators were usually very powerful because they were the ones producing the resources.

There were numerous large factions led by creators.

“You don’t have to submit any requests. I’m just a little interested in the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower. You can just give me the young Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flowers.

“I heard there are many treasures in Fortune Treasure Palace. I would also like to buy a batch of resources. Why don’t you take me around to browse the resources? Now that I’ve received the title of special honor guest, I should be able to receive the associated discount, right?”

Zhan Lu let out a sigh of relief. It would be best if he did not have to trouble the Creators! He might be in charge of one of the branches, but he still needed to show the appropriate respect to the Creators.

“That won’t be an issue. Fortune Treasure Palace’s rarest resources are displayed on level five and above. I will take you directly to browse level six. If you see anything you like, just let me know! How many chips do you intend to use?”

Zhan Lu remembered Lin Yuan saying that he wanted to strike a large deal with Fortune Treasure Palace. By asking Lin Yuan how many chips he wanted to spend, he would be able to get a sense of the scale of the transaction!

Lin Yuan raised his hand and made the hand sign for ‘1’.

Zhan Lu hurriedly asked, “Young Master Lin, are you going to spend 10,000,000 chips?”

Zhan Lu had assumed that he meant 1,000,000 chips. Lin Yuan had expressed that he wanted to strike a large deal. If he was referring to a deal that was only worth 1,000,000 chips, it would be a disappointment.

10,000,000 chips was not an overly large amount. After all, one needed to spend 30,000,000 chips to be considered Fortune Treasure Palace’s special honor guest.

Lin Yuan shook his head.

Just as Zhan Lu was about to up the amount to 100,000,000 chips, he heard Lin Yuan say softly, “Exchange 1 billion chips for me. If this isn’t enough for the final deal, I can spend more resources to exchange more chips.”

1 billion chips!? To Zhan Lu, this was already a sufficiently large amount.

Only foundational resources could be traded for Fortune Treasure Palace’s chips.

1 billion chips worth of resources was a giant transaction!

Yet, Lin Yuan was going to change 1 billion chips at once and even declared that this might not be the end of it.

Zhan Lu had managed many branches but had never come across a special honor guest as wealthy as Lin Yuan. contemporary romance

Even the most powerful and wealthy special honor guests were also exceptionally cautious when it came to spending their resources.

If his branch received such an enormous batch of resources, he would definitely receive rewards from the headquarters.

“Young Master Lin, I will help you to exchange the chips right now. Is it possible for me to take a look at the resources that you intend to trade for the chips?”

As the trader, Zhan Lu had to verify all the resources that Lin Yuan offered for the trade. If Lin Yuan’s resources were not up to scratch, Zhan Lu would have to supplement the disqualified resources out of his own pocket!

Zhan Lu had made such mistakes in the past and paid the price. As a result, he was now extremely careful when it came to assessing resources.

Lin Yuan took out two large rust-colored wooden chests that gleamed with the soft sheen of jade.

To Zhan Lu’s eyes, these two jade-textured red camphor chests were luxury items.

This was firstly because the pattern of the engravings was very intricate. Secondly, it was due to the jade-textured red camphor.

Red camphor required a much higher concentration of spirit qi to become fully jade-textured.

In order for red camphor to become jade-textured, they needed to absorb spirit qi that only Grade 6 Creators could concoct.

Fortune Treasure Palace only had one Creator who was Grade 6 and above.

These two jade-textured red camphor chests caused Zhan Lu to be even more bedazzled by Lin Yuan.

Zhan Lu intended to report this situation to the headquarters.

However, was there something wrong with the brain of this Grade 6 Creator? Why did they use the pure spirit qi they had painstakingly concocted on something as useless as wood?

“These contain crystals that contain pure spirit qi. The spirit qi in these crystals is constant. You can set a price for each of these crystals and tell me how many chips they’re worth. Then, you can take a quantity that is the equivalent of 1 billion chips.”

Zhan Lu had shown off Fortune Treasure Palace’s might and capabilities to Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan now needed to do the same. He needed to flex in front of Fortune Treasure Palace to elevate his position in their eyes.

It had not been easy for him to obtain an excellent source of resources, and he hoped that he would be able to rely on them long-term.

Zhan Lu took a step forward and opened one of the jade-textured red camphor chests.

The chest that he opened was filled with crystals that were each around the size of his eyes. The crystals were white and milky. No aura could be sensed from their surfaces.

But once he used his spiritual energy to penetrate the crystals, his soul was instantly enveloped by the pure spirit qi. His soul now felt incomparable comfort.

The crystals in these two chests were all genuine foundational resources!

The level of spirit qi was that which was concocted by Grade 4 Creators.

If he was going to set a price for such a crystal for an ordinary guest, Zhan Lu would price it at 1,500 chips per crystal. This was an acceptable exchange rate!

However, Zhan Lu and Lin Yuan were not simply going to trade. Zhan Lu also wanted to use the trade to win Lin Yuan’s friendship.

Zhan Lu touched the spirit qi crystals in the chest and fell into deep thought.
