Chapter 209: Chapter 208: Special Items! (Please Subscribe)

Entering the lounge, Chen Fan inspected the room to ensure there were no hidden cameras. A series of clicking sounds followed, and Chen Fan returned to his original appearance.

He exhaled a breath, sat down on the leather sofa, and opened the laptop gifted by the association.

He entered his account and password.

Login successful.

Soon, he received two emails.

Chen Fan opened the first one. It was a congratulatory email welcoming him to the Awakened Association.

"An E-level Awakened, huh?"

He glanced at the suffix next to his name.

The so-called E-level referred to those who had initially mastered their superpowers, possessing the combat ability to kill soldiers armed with small firearms in one-on-one situations.

Above that, D-level Awakened could compete against elite squads with advanced weapons, and they could even annihilate the latter.

C-level Awakened were already beyond the capabilities of special forces, with combat power between High-level Fierce Beasts and Elite-level Fierce Beasts. Several C-level Awakened were enough to guard a small human city.

To advance, one must undertake a promotion task independently.

For example, an E-level Awakened wanting to advance to D-level had to take on a D-level task and complete it alone, with observers in the dark ensuring no cheating. Additionally, if an Awakened demonstrated strength beyond their current level, they could be directly promoted by the association without needing to undertake the promotion task.

Of course, the latter was much more challenging than the former.

In reality, these levels were more of an honorary title, commanding respect and fear, without offering substantial benefits.

Because to gain the right to purchase high-level items, everyone had to unlock them through points.

Chen Fan opened the next email.

Indeed, it was a notification of points being credited, 100 points.

"I wonder what I can buy."

With expectations, Chen Fan clicked the marketplace page, and about a dozen categories appeared before his eyes.

Food, daily necessities, cold weapons, hot weapons, protective gear, cultivation techniques, elixirs, materials, special items, etc.

Though similar to the Martial Arts Association, several categories were new.

Instinctively, Chen Fan opened the food category, not expecting much, but was greatly surprised.

Because it wasn’t vegetables, meat, snacks, etc., spanning dozens to hundreds of pages, but rather items he had never heard of before.

Fire Phoenix Fruit, priced at 100 points, slightly increases control over fire elements. Note: First usage is most effective, subsequent uses have diminishing effects until no effect, same applies hereafter.

Ice Crystal Fruit, priced at 100 points, slightly increases control over ice elements.

Wind Spirit Fruit...

"All for enhancing superpowers?"

Shock mingled with disappointment, but Chen Fan’s eyes lit up when he saw the last few lines.

White Jade Fruit: Priced at 100 points, slightly enhances Constitution.

Strength Fruit: Priced at 100 points, slightly enhances Power.

Spirit Rabbit Fruit: Priced at 100 points, slightly enhances Agility.

Scrolling down, there was nothing more.

"No Spirit Attribute?"

Below were endless rows of question marks, evidently, his current points were not enough to unlock them.

"As expected of the Awakened Association."

Chen Fan lightly sighed. The three fruits below were not available in the Martial Arts Association.

And undeniably, the further one unlocked, the better the items, possibly including those enhancing spirit and martial artists’ Primordial True Qi.

After all, some Awakened had body-enhancing superpowers, and some martial artists also practiced martial arts, so items increasing martial artists’ Primordial True Qi wouldn’t be surprising.

"Let’s check out other sections."

Chen Fan had no intention of spending his 100 points right there.

Daily necessities were quite normal.

Cold weapons, similar to the Martial Arts Association, included alloy weapons of various kinds, not just the usual eighteen types but also uncommon ones like the Judge’s Pen and Pen Holder Fork.

The prices were a bit higher compared to martial artists.

With his current permissions, he could only buy weapons up to Tier Two.

Protective gear.

Curiously, Chen Fan clicked on this section.

All were alloy battle armor.

Unfortunately, they were all Tier One.

Priced from 10 points to over 100 points.

Chen Fan found it interesting, as the Martial Arts Association didn’t have such items in his memory.

Perhaps because he hadn’t reached the Meridian Refining Realm to unlock them?

He clicked the cheapest one, costing 10 points, providing protection against one Mid-level Fierce Beast attack.

"Ten thousand for one time."

Chen Fan winced.

A Mid-level Fierce Beast’s purchase price was a few thousand, while this Tier One alloy armor was priced at ten thousand for single-use protection.

A Tier One alloy weapon cost a few thousand to ten thousand.

But one could not deny, its high price was justified by saving lives.

30-point Tier One alloy armor’s effectiveness increased to multiple Mid-level Fierce Beast attacks.

50-point Tier One alloy armor could withstand over ten Mid-level Fierce Beast attacks and one High-level Fierce Beast attack, a qualitative leap.

The 100-point armor could resist three High-level Fierce Beast attacks.

And that was it.

Chen Fan squinted, recalling the protective shield that appeared on Guan Dexi when attacked.

His own attack, theoretically, could penetrate Elite-level Fierce Beast defenses, yet Guan Dexi still blocked it.

So then...

No, it was odd; he didn’t seem to be wearing alloy armor?

Chen Fan glanced at the screen’s pictures. This armor covered the entire body, including a helmet.

"Could it be a special item?"

Chen Fan looked back, contemplated, and decided to continue checking sequentially, as there was still plenty of time.

Cultivation Techniques.

This was the category he was most looking forward to.

Upon clicking, various techniques filled the screen.

From Body Tempering, Muscle Refining, to Entry Force, and even Meridian Refining Techniques!

[Qianyuan Skill]

[Innate Skill]

[One Breathing Technique]

...

And more.

Chen Fan’s breathing quickened. This meant he could purchase Meridian Refining Techniques without passing the martial artist assessment.

The prices of Entry Force Martial Arts were comparable to those in the Martial Arts Association.

Wait.

He quickly realized, purchasing resources here seemed to be non-negotiable.

Take the Qianyuan Skill for example, it required 100 points here, while only 80 points in the Martial Arts Association.

"Better first buy all the techniques available from the Martial Arts Association, and come here for those that aren’t." Chen Fan thought.

Though the Martial Arts Association was weaker, it undeniably treated its martial artists well.

The Awakened Association likely had no shortage of powerhouses, and even for them, no discounts applied, signifying equal treatment.

He swept his eyes, finding five to six Heart Methods, priced under 100 points, and probably more beyond.

There were also numerous fist and kick martial arts, cheaper than heart methods, priced between 30 to 60 points.

Chen Fan felt an urge to purchase immediately.

"Let’s look further down."

He took a deep breath and clicked on the elixir section, where a myriad of elixirs appeared.

One-point Health Pill,

Two-point Top-grade Qi Blood Pill,

Five-point Beauty Pill,

Ten-point Top-grade Qi Blood Pill, Low-grade True Qi Pill,

Twenty-point Middle-grade True Qi Pill,

Thirty-point Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill,

Fifty-point Top-grade True Qi Pill,

Eighty-point Spirit Ginseng Pill,

One hundred-point Top-grade True Qi Pill.

There were twenty to thirty types of elixirs, in addition to numerous pill formulas. Even for the same elixir, there were several formulas.

For example, a 100-point Qi Blood Pill formula had a note: This formula cannot refine Top-grade Qi Blood Pills.

Chen Fan frowned slightly.

Obviously, this formula couldn’t be compared to the two kinds he had learned.

If he mastered this Alchemy, the probability of producing Heaven-grade Qi Blood Pills should also increase, right?

After some thought, he dismissed the idea, as Qi Blood Pills currently provided too few Potential Points. He needed to focus on True Qi Pills.

Low-grade True Qi Pill provided 10,000 Potential Points.

One Top-grade True Qi Pill, priced ten times higher, would undoubtedly offer more than ten times the Potential Points, likely surpassing Low-grade Divine Gathering Pills.

"Unfortunately, I don’t have enough points."

Chen Fan glanced at the endless rows of question marks below.

The Qi Blood Pill formulas he purchased from the Martial Artist Association were worth 2 million, equating to 200 points.

The association’s Qi Blood Pill formula must start at 300 points.

The True Qi Pill formula likely started at 500 points.

Returning to the base to refine all the Qi Blood Pills, he had to undertake some tasks to accumulate points.

Continuing down, materials.

As expected, there wasn’t much difference from his imagination, mostly Fierce Beast materials.

Special items.

Chen Fan clicked on it,

Small Space Item: 1 cubic meter storage, priced at 100 points.

Small Protective Talisman: Can withstand one High-level Fierce Beast attack, priced at 100 points.

Small Teleportation Talisman: Can teleport 500 meters, in any direction.

Invisibility Pendant: Grants one minute of invisibility, usable three times, priced at 100 points.

Smoke Bomb: Envelops a kilometer radius in smoke lasting half an hour, priced at 100 points.

...

There were numerous items, extending beyond sight.

Chen Fan looked at these strange items, getting a vague sense that these special items were made by Awakened individuals and sold here?

"Quite something..."

He couldn’t help but laugh.

In this section, only your imagination limited what they could create.

Not many items truly interested him; space items were one.

cubic meter cost 100 points, so 10 cubic meters would be 1,000 points?

He shook his head, knowing it would be clear once he had enough points, guessing was futile now.

Having a general understanding of the association’s resources, Chen Fan’s body emitted a light sound again. He quickly returned to his earlier appearance and, upon opening the door, detected two pairs of eyes looking his way from not far off.

The other party seemed to have been waiting; upon seeing the door open, they approached with a smile.

"Brother, are you new here?"

The tall, thin man leading asked with a smile.

"What do you want?"

Chen Fan frowned slightly.

"Hehe, you must’ve just browsed through the association’s items. How about it? Do you feel there’s too many good things that you can’t afford?"

"So?"

"We have a quick way to earn points, interested in trying?" The tall, thin man winked.
