Chapter 339: Chapter 245 Spiritual Energy Acquired

Han Qiu’s smile widened upon hearing Ji Xinghuo’s purpose, saying, "I will immediately send a message to the lord, but the lord is currently not at Sky Falling Cliff, you might have to wait a moment."

"Please do." Ji Xinghuo nodded.

Han Qiu took out a silver disc with a diameter of about fifteen centimeters, made of metal, appearing very small in his hand.

He lightly tapped the disc with his finger and began to operate it.

Ji Xinghuo watched curiously.

The electromagnetic induction revealed that the disc’s internal structure was very complex; however, its energy fluctuations were very restrained, clearly a product of Ether Technology that could communicate over long distances within the Star Realm.

"This is a Galactic Interconnection Communication Device."

Seeing Ji Xinghuo’s interest, Han Qiu explained, "It’s a communication device from the Star Alliance that, using relays in the Star Gates across the Star Realm and the Milky Way Galaxy, builds a communication network that spans both realms. Although there is often a delay, it enables ultra-long-distance communication."

He flashed the silver disc in his hand at Ji Xinghuo and said, "It’s also commonly called a ’Star Connection Device’."

Ji Xinghuo was enlightened.

This was the first time he learned about a device capable of inter-realm communication.

To some extent, if Star Connection Devices covered the entire Milky Way, they could enable instantaneous communication between parties light-years apart.

"Must be very expensive, right?" Ji Xinghuo asked.

"I don’t know." Han Qiu shook his head, "This Star Connection Device was given to me by the lord. As for those terms about the communication network, I don’t really understand them, I just know how to operate."

Ji Xinghuo was startled.

He then remembered that Snow Ape Giants were indigenous to the Star Realm’s Alien Race and knew little about physical technology and even less about Ether Technology.

After sending the message, the Star Connection Device gently trembled after about ten seconds.

He glanced at it, "The lord said he will be back soon."

While waiting for Void Spirit Guest to return, Ji Xinghuo suddenly thought of something and asked, "Chieftain Han Qiu, you have been in the Bloody Plateau for many years, do you know where the Gale Beasts roam?"

"Are you looking for the heart of a Gale Beast?" Han Qiu asked with a smile.

Ji Xinghuo nodded, "Yes."

"Then you’ve asked the right person." Han Qiu chuckled, "The whereabouts of Gale Beasts are elusive; no one can pinpoint their exact location. However, we Snow Ape Giants are neighbors with them and understand their habits well; we roughly know the areas where Gale Beasts appear."

"That’s excellent," Ji Xinghuo was overjoyed.

However, Han Qiu then fell silent.

Ji Xinghuo immediately understood, "I am willing to purchase the information about the Gale Beast’s region, please give me a price, Chieftain Han Qiu."

"One Ether Crystal."

Han Qiu held out a broad palm.

Ji Xinghuo immediately took out one of his two remaining Ether Crystals and placed it in his hand. Han Qiu pocketed the crystal with satisfaction and said, "You are a straightforward person." He then handed a simplified map to Ji Xinghuo.

He looked over the map, which depicted much of the Bloody Plateau, and marked several regions in the eastern area where Gale Beasts had appeared.

Han Qiu said, "The areas marked on this map only have a high probability of encountering Gale Beasts, but it’s not guaranteed that you’ll find them."

"I understand," Ji Xinghuo nodded.

Though the map was expensive, it would save a lot of time compared to a blind, carpet search.

Moreover, buying this map could also bring him closer to Han Qiu.

As the representative of Void Spirit Guest and the nominal ruler of Sky Falling Cliff, commanding three thousand Snow Ape Giants, Han Qiu certainly had access to a vast amount of resources, including various information channels. He had detailed knowledge of the eastern Bloody Plateau. Establishing a good relationship with him could only be beneficial.

Of course, he couldn’t seem too overtly utilitarian right now.

The two chatted for over an hour.

"The lord is back."

Han Qiu suddenly stood up and left the hall.

Suddenly, a voice resonated in Ji Xinghuo’s mind, "Han Qiu said you wanted to make a trade with me?"

"Yes, Elder Void Spirit." Ji Xinghuo stood up to show respect, despite not knowing where Void Spirit Guest was, he responded respectfully.

"Are you buying or selling?"

Ji Xinghuo produced a bag and said, "I would like to exchange these 35 Red Emperor Blood Crystals for a Magnetic Spirit Star Core and a Spiritual Ability Species." As he spoke, he poured all the Red Emperor Blood Crystals from the bag onto the table in front of him.

"Oh?"

The tone of Void Spirit Guest carried a hint of surprise, "You truly might become a future Infinite Realm Master, having acquired so many Red Emperor Blood Crystals."

Ji Xinghuo felt an extremely subtle fluctuation sweep over him.

"In half a Star Realm month, your strength has increased this much," Void Spirit Guest exclaimed.

"Just luck," Ji Xinghuo said modestly.

"Haha..." Void Spirit Guest chuckled, "You don’t have to be so cautious, I’ve told you before, I mean no harm to you and won’t disclose your secrets to anyone. Between us, there’s only the fairest trade, along with a bit of goodwill."

Ji Xinghuo expressed his thanks, "Thank you for your appreciation, Elder."

Void Spirit Guest said nothing further, "35 Red Emperor Blood Crystals are enough for the two items you want, I’ll agree to this trade."

Suddenly, ripples appeared in the air before him, and a hole opened in the center, sucking in all the Red Emperor Blood Crystals on the table.

Then, a white pearl the size of a fingertip dropped out.

"This is the Spiritual Ability Species, take this first," Void Spirit Guest said, "I don’t have a Magnetic Spirit Star Core on hand right now, but I know where to find a Magnetic Spirit, it will be delivered to you within five days. If it takes longer than five days, I’ll return all 30 Red Emperor Blood Crystals to you."

"I naturally trust your word, Elder," Ji Xinghuo nodded and picked up the Spiritual Ability Species.

This was his second encounter.

The spiritual ability species resembled soft pearls, emitting a faint glow.

Information about the alien species popped up before his eyes.

[Alien Species: Spiritual Ability]

[Grade: Transcendent]

[Fusion Success Rate: 99%]

[Upgradeable: Yes]

"It’s the real deal," Ji Xinghuo praised silently. To date, only the rotating magnetic field and the electrostatic field had reached a 99% fusion success rate.

Relying on sheer determination, Anyi and the three of them had entered the Dagon people’s city, killed the Toad Spirit, and acquired the spiritual ability.

Now, he had acquired it as well!

"You must still have some Red Emperor Blood Crystals in your possession, right?"

Void Spirit Guest suddenly asked. Without waiting for Ji Xinghuo to respond, he made an offer, "I can offer a higher price to buy your surplus Red Emperor Blood Crystals."

Ji Xinghuo hesitated a bit.

After exchanging for the Magnetic Spirit Star Core and spiritual ability, he still had 14 Red Emperor Blood Crystals.

These precious blood crystals were not purchasable with money. He wanted to save them for Man Ying, Anyi, and his family and friends so they could all have a chance to fuse with an alien species and enhance their bodies. The blood crystals could also be traded with others for other expansive strange items.

However, since Void Spirit Guest had asked, he still needed to show him some respect and sell him a few more blood crystals.

"What price does the senior offer?" Ji Xinghuo asked.

"One blood crystal for 15 Ether Crystals; how does that sound?" Void Spirit Guest suddenly increased the buying price by half.

As expected of a sharp trader!

Ji Xinghuo secretly criticized in his mind. Void Spirit Guest increasing the price so much indicated that the price of Red Emperor Blood Crystal was far more than 15 Ether Crystals, and there was definitely a lot of room for markup.

Void Spirit Guest could take the blood crystals elsewhere and sell them for dozens of Ether Crystals, perhaps even hundreds.

But there was no help for it; he monopolized the trading channels!

"I am willing to sell four more Red Emperor Blood Crystals to the senior," Ji Xinghuo stated candidly. "The rest of the blood crystals, I will keep for my family and friends."

"Agreed."

Ji Xinghuo took out four blood crystals and placed them on the table.

A void opened up in front of him again, sucking in the blood crystals and dropping out 60 Ether Crystals, neatly arranged, each a standard hexagonal prism, semi-transparent, with faint energy flowing inside reflecting a subtle rainbow light.

So many Ether Crystals piled together looked quite spectacular.

In the Star Realm, they were worth 1.2 billion Ya Yuan!

Ji Xinghuo didn’t reveal his Dimension Stomach and used a bag to pack up all the Ether Crystals, completing this transaction.

"Once the Magnetic Spirit Star Core arrives, I will have Han Qiu notify you."

"Yes, senior."

Ji Xinghuo waited about ten seconds, and since Void Spirit Guest did not respond further, he confirmed that he had left.

Han Qiu entered the hall and said, "The Lord is very satisfied with this transaction. In a few days, when the esteemed guest returns, I will update the trading list for you."

One really needed to spend to see more great items.

Ji Xinghuo was somewhat expectant.

Before leaving, he asked Han Qiu about purchasing some cultivation-supporting potions. Han Qiu recommended a potions store on Sky Falling Cliff, a property under the Snow Ape Tribe. At the store, showing the Sky Fall Order would grant him some discounted prices.

Guided by Han Qiu’s directions, Ji Xinghuo arrived at the store and after selecting, bought ten "Refined Ether Solvents."

The price of one potion was as high as one Ether Crystal!

But its effects were worth the price.

After drinking it, it was equivalent to having a Third Level Ether Sensitivity, enhancing the efficiency of cultivating and absorbing Ether Energy, and lasting about 45 Star Realm Days, which equated to about three months on Earth.

This was almost similar to the effects of Class A Blood Marrow Solution, and it was even more cost-effective.

If it weren’t for the purchase limit, Ji Xinghuo would have wanted to buy more.

He managed to buy ten Refined Ether Solvents in one go because he had the Sky Fall Order, while others could only buy three per Star Realm Year.

Returning to Xia Qingyu’s home, both of them had already woken up.

Seeing Ji Xinghuo return from outside, Xia Qingyu asked, "Where have you been so early in the morning?"

"I went out to buy some stuff," Ji Xinghuo casually replied, noting that he and Misha had finished washing up and were neatly dressed. "Are you guys planning to use the Red Emperor Blood Crystals?"

"Exactly!"

Xia Qingyu’s face was visibly excited. "Thanks to you, I can fuse with another alien species before attempting to become a Legendary Mutant."

"Best of luck."

Ji Xinghuo followed them into the cultivation room. Xia Qingyu was first to use the Red Emperor Blood Crystal and managed to absorb the crystal’s energy without any trouble, enhancing his body and boosting his strength by a notch. Misha also smoothly absorbed a blood crystal.

Both were thrilled and decided to go celebrate at the bar, heading out immediately.

Ji Xinghuo shook his head, took out a Refined Ether Solvent and drank it, quickly feeling the effects of the potion, which were quite impressive.

Then, he immersed himself in cultivation, his Star Power rapidly growing!
