Chapter 446 - 444: Mountains and Rivers in the Palm
Everyone felt like Su Qing was just boasting.
It was far too disrespectful.
"Allowing the entire Eastern Domain to obtain the Star Dao Path."
It was simply too incredible. Besides, Star Fruits weren’t something ordinary beings could consume.
Doing so would cause them to explode and die.
Su Qing chuckled lightly as more and more Star Fruits appeared in his hand.
Until there were over a hundred of them.
Then he put them away.
"As long as I wish it, I can do it."
"Oh, right. A certain someone I fought before seemed to have the ability to replicate things. For him, copying a Star Fruit should be no problem."
Su Qing said softly.
He wasn’t posturing.
He was telling the truth.
His main goal was to make others *think* he was posturing.
That way, his objective would be achieved.
’These Star Fruits are trash to me, but I can trade them for your seed.’
’A Star Fruit worth over twenty million Taichu Coins...’
’...exchanged for this unknown seed.’
’Trade if you want, but I won’t care if you don’t.’
’Because in my eyes, the value of this seed is the same as a Star Fruit.’
This was the hidden meaning.
It was mainly for Qiang Shangli to see.
Everyone was astonished.
Including the World Master.
That was just too many Star Fruits.
They were supposed to be extremely rare items.
Yet Su Qing had produced over a hundred of them.
His financial power could be described as immense.
Qiang Shangli also smiled. "Star Fruits... that could work. Two Star Fruits, then."
"I took a huge risk to find this unknown seed, you know."
In truth, he hadn’t.
But everyone had to add to their bargaining chips.
Su Qing stood to the side, pondering for a long while.
"Actually, we of the Star Rights Race have collected many of these unknown seeds. If you want them, we can make a trade."
"One such rare seed for one Star Fruit. We have seeds much better than the one he’s holding."
Luo Yu said slowly, watching Su Qing’s pensive expression from the side.
Qiang Shangli laughed. "Miss Luo Yu, are you trying to steal my business?"
"Forget it. For the sake of Miss Luo Yu and Miss Luo Qing, one Star Fruit it is."
Qiang Shangli said, his expression reluctant.
The seed was already floating in front of Su Qing.
Su Qing raised an eyebrow, a flicker of joy crossing his face, then took out a Star Fruit and gave it to Qiang Shangli.
"In that case, my thanks."
"I will study this seed well." ’A Treasure Level seed is now in my hands.’
’If it really sprouts...’
Su Qing felt it would definitely bring great benefits.
"Just give up. If this seed requires you to Praise the Sound of Origin, it will never grow."
"Besides, would you dare swallow this unknown seed?" Qiang Shangli said with a sigh.
He himself had studied it for a long time.
But he couldn’t figure out anything about the seed.
He had even invited Heng Yaoyao to study the seed with him.
They had discovered nothing.
"Thank you, but everyone’s research methods may be different," Su Qing said with a light nod and a smile.
He put the seed away.
This seed couldn’t actually be placed inside Su Qing’s Micro Acupoint World, because it needed to absorb information from the Star Sea Great World to grow.
"True. Well then, I wish you luck in figuring this seed out, Su Qing."
"Many thanks."
After the transaction,
the conversation at the gathering turned to some bland matters concerning the Last Life Clan.
Su Qing didn’t want to pay them any mind.
He was just an outsider.
He had already served his purpose as a shield.
The fellow in the corner had stared at him several times.
Su Qing accepted it.
The rewards were great, anyway. In the end,
Luo Yu and Luo Qing led Su Qing to a certain place.
"Su Qing, it seemed like you have a great need for seeds?"
"How about trading for seeds with our Star Rights Race?"
"All you need are Star Fruits for the exchange."
"If that’s possible, then thank you. I need miraculous seeds."
"Of course. The Star Rights Race has many miraculous seeds, but most of them can’t be cultivated."
"No problem. I’m just curious and want to study them," Su Qing said with a smile.
Luo Yu took out a Source Path Cultivation Method
and gave it to Su Qing.
"This is what you’ve earned. Be careful of Yan Jiao."
"That’s right. Yan Jiao has been staring at you a lot."
"You should be careful when you leave the Taichu Daoist Palace."
"No problem."
Su Qing said with a smile, then put away the Source Path Cultivation Technique.
A Cultivation Method for the Curse Dao Path.
Su Qing was quite pleased with it.
"If you want to trade, you can find me outside my residence. This is its location." An image showing a location within the Taichu Daoist Palace appeared in Su Qing’s hand.
He let Luo Yu and Luo Qing memorize it for a moment.
"Of course. We’ll come find you within one Taichu Month."
"Mm, let’s part ways here then."
Su Qing nodded and smiled.
...
「Inside Su Qing’s world.」
It was still nighttime; the time in the Taichu Daoist Palace was synchronized everywhere.
So this was normal.
The Flower Sea was also very beautiful at night. When a gentle breeze rustled through, some of the flowers that naturally glowed in the dark would sway gently, resembling a Star Sea in the night sky.
Su Qing still had things to do.
He memorized the entire Cultivation Method for the Curse Dao Path of the Source Path,
then put it away.
His Dao Artifact was not yet complete.
Plus, there was the seed he had just obtained today.
Su Qing placed the Infinite Seed to the side.
He let it slowly absorb information from the Star Sea Great World.
Su Qing then continued working on his Dao Artifact nearby.
Another ten days or so passed.
Su Qing finally let out a breath.
’Good thing this clone of mine is almost the same as my main body.’
’Otherwise, I really wouldn’t have been able to create a Dao Artifact like this.’
[Mountains and Rivers in the Palm: Tier Ten Top Dao Artifact. A world created from the Power of Space-Time. Can shrink to the size of a mustard seed or expand to the size of a Small Thousand World. The space-time within its mountains and rivers is completely under the user’s control. The scale of the internal landscape cannot be altered.]
[Upgradeable via Synthesis]
The Dao Artifact now appeared in Su Qing’s hand, looking incredibly lifelike.
He had wracked his brain and paid the price of this clone being unable to advance its cultivation,
all to imbue this Mountains and Rivers in the Palm with control over space-time.
Inside was a space the size of a Small Thousand World.
Control over space-time...
...it had one major benefit:
the issue with plants.
He could make them experience an extremely long period of time in an instant.
However, this required Su Qing to use his own Magical Power, and he couldn’t extend the time indefinitely.
A Dao Artifact would only show its effects when its owner used it.
Just because the Dao Artifact had no limits didn’t mean Su Qing’s own abilities were limitless.
At most, Su Qing could make the flow of time inside fast-forward by a hundred years at once.
That is, a ratio of one second to one hundred years.
It was still quite slow, because this Dao Artifact was not yet perfect.
Su Qing felt that a thousand years in a flash should be possible.
The Dao Artifact was still the limiting factor.
Su Qing couldn’t make any greater improvements right now.
He could only hope that his main body would reach the Dao Flower Realm by consuming fruits and cultivating.
His current limitations...
...only allowed him to refine Tier Ten Dao Artifacts.
’But I have the Synthesizer.’
Su Qing thought about refining eight more of these Mountains and Rivers in the Palm.
Then he could synthesize them.
The result would definitely be much more powerful than what he had now.
...
「Several days later.」
Su Qing had only just managed to create one Mountains and Rivers in the Palm
when someone came looking for him.
Su Qing had a feeling it was Luo Yu and her sister, because they had an agreement to trade Star Fruits and seeds.
Sure enough.
As expected, it really was Luo Yu and Luo Qing.
’This pair of beautiful sisters are always together.’
’It’s really strange.’
Su Qing didn’t mind.
"Welcome. Care to come in and have a look?"
Su Qing said with a smile.
"Then let’s go inside to talk."
Luo Yu nodded.
The moment they stepped inside,
a world with a completely different style entered the two women’s eyes.
"Whoa~" Luo Yu exclaimed in amazement.
Luo Qing also stood beside her, eyes wide as she gazed at the surrounding Flower Sea.
Under the sunlight, the Flower Sea was truly beautiful.
