581 Release of the List
In the virtual world.
On the grass, Xu Jingming sat at a table and studied the light lineage of the Primordial Star Conjecture.
It’s very difficult to create a suitable high-dimensional lifeform after becoming a cosmic legend, but some paths are exceptions! For example, Beam Transformation in the light lineage. Xu Jingming came to a realization.
An Origin lifeform’s body was strong enough to begin with! The closer such a powerful lifeform was to the speed of light, the greater the restrictions and obstacles. It even greatly distorted the flow of time.
!!
When one broke through the final limit and reached the speed of light, they would possess all kinds of unimaginable high-dimensional abilities.
Once I master Beam Transformation, I just need a lifeform to completely turn into light using the Primordial Star Flame as a reference and form a Primordial Star Flame body. Then, I can break through to become a high-dimensional lifeform, Xu Jingming thought.
Although the Primordial Star Flame was precious, the Primordial Research Institute had it available for every exchange.
It’s no wonder Xuan believed that he could perfect himself in another 10,000 to 20,000 years. Xu Jingming understood this. It’s just that the path of Beam Transformation isn’t that easy to grasp.
Beam Transformation, Infinite Light, Obliteration Light… The different directions of the light lineage can reach high-dimensional. The more Xu Jingming studied it, the more he felt that the light lineage was expansive. Even the reproduction and growth of countless living beings, plants, and animals in the universe required light.
The mysteries of light fused into every part of the universe.
For example, Infinite Light needed to make one’s body strong enough to be like a miniature Primordial Star. Only by becoming a high-dimensional lifeform could the light it emitted be qualified to be called Infinite Light.
Lv. 10 knowledge was already the most profound knowledge in the universe. He began to have many guesses pertaining to higher dimensions.
Yes, it was all conjectures about higher dimensions. After all, few great scholars who had devoted their lives to science had the mental strength to reach high-dimensional! They could only rely on the information left behind by the Paramounts to make conjectures, and some of the results were conjectures.
With these conjectures and some high-dimensional objects, they could create some terrifying high-dimensional weapons. The most outstanding of them were the forbidden weapons of the human race.
Although the three Paramounts could live in high-dimensional space for extended periods, they clearly didn’t spend their energy on science. This was because reaching the highest level of science required outstanding talent.
In history, the three Paramounts had interacted with great scholars with educational backgrounds exceeding Lv. 150.
Compared to great scholars with educational backgrounds exceeding Lv. 150, the three Paramounts felt that they were illiterate! They had studied for a million years, but they couldn’t compare to the gains a great scholar could achieve in minutes.
Moreover, if they continued studying after their educational levels exceeded Lv. 100, the three Paramounts could sense that it would clearly affect their evolutionary path and create more confusion.
This was why the dean allowed Xu Jingming to reach Lv. 100.
The scientific explanation is really thorough. Xu Jingming was impressed, and a smile appeared on his face. The feeling of absorbing knowledge was indeed wonderful.
He was still quite far from Lv. 100, and he was in the midst of rapid improvement.
Just as Xu Jingming was studying—
Huh? Xu Jingming received a notification.
The Primordial Research Institute’s exchange list? Xu Jingming tapped gently and read it.
The Primordial Research Institute would open up a credit exchange a month later! This exchange list was naturally made public in advance, allowing everyone to make preparations.
Secretary General Blacksky said that more treasures would be released during the exchange. Xu Jingming carefully read the list.
“1: Primordial Fire Bead (only one). Exchange price: 500 million credits. Limited to personal use. The Primordial Research Institute will recover it at the original price after the exchanger expires.”
Xu Jingming was stunned and immediately tapped open for a more detailed introduction.
After the Primordial Research Institute’s dean became a high-dimensional lifeform, he gathered high-dimensional materials and refined a total of 36 Primordial Fire Beads. Every Primordial Fire Bead was like a miniature Primordial Star. He had utilized these 36 Primordial Fire Beads in battle for a long time before giving up on them later on.
It had been exchanged by many members at the Primordial Research Institute historically! Due to the war and all kinds of accidents, 12 Primordial Fire Beads had been completely lost.
The Primordial Fire Bead was refined by the dean, mimicking the Primordial Star. Carrying it daily for observation had the effect of improving the mind.
An evolver from the Primordial Star lineage had a chance of using high-dimensional powers when using the Primordial Fire Bead.
The Primordial Fire Bead contained the nine core mysteries of the Primordial Star Conjecture. It had many abilities such as visualization, defense, enemy killing, and escape. As it was originally used by the dean, one needed to cultivate the Primordial Star Conjecture to an extremely high level before they could use high-dimensional powers. The threshold was extremely high, but once it was successfully used, its might was extremely great.
…
The explanation was quite long, and it made Xu Jingming’s eyes turn red.
This is a miniature Primordial Star, and it was refined by the dean, so it’s naturally most compatible with the Primordial Star Conjecture. Xu Jingming didn’t hesitate. I have to get it.
Usually, the most expensive exchange is only 100 to 200 million credits. Did he deliberately prepare a Primordial Fire Bead for me? Xu Jingming also thought about it. After all, Blacksky had raised the matter.
Moreover, not many people could afford 500 million credits.
Thankfully, my contributions are now number one, so I have the right to choose first. Xu Jingming didn’t need to look at the subsequent treasures; he was certain that the Primordial Fire Bead was necessary!
Xu Jingming continued looking at the other treasures.
“2: Abyss Fire Lotus Seeds (5). Exchange price: 200 million credits. Everyone is limited to one.”
Xu Jingming’s eyelids twitched. 200 million credits? The price is really high.
He immediately opened the detailed introduction.
Abyss Fire Lotus Seed: A lotus seed that grows in the high-dimensional space’s Abyss! It has the effect of blocking external forces and protecting the mind. It can nourish the mind and greatly increase all aspects of the mind. An Abyss Fire Lotus Seed can nourish the mind of a Lv. 10 Origin lifeform for about a thousand years.
It can greatly increase the mind in every aspect? It can last about a thousand years? Xu Jingming was tempted.
When acquiring knowledge and high-dimensional powers, one could break through in a flash of inspiration.
What was a flash of inspiration? In fact, it was also an aspect of the mind.
I have to get one, Xu Jingming thought.
“3: Cosmos Mirror (only one). Exchange price: 150 million credits. Limited to personal use.”
The Cosmos Mirror contained a miniature universe! It was more suitable for evolvers of the spacetime lineage. Of course, it was most suitable for evolvers of the Mirror Domain lineage.
Xu Jingming read the introduction of the Cosmos Mirror and thought to himself, Not many people in our Primordial Research Institute focus on the spacetime lineage, and the powerhouses of Spacetime Island have more suitable high-dimensional weapons. This one is more like something prepared for Senior Brother Jane.
The treasures released by the research institute would also consider what the official members were good at, what they needed, how much credit the members had, and so on.
For example, the Primordial Fire Bead! Its true value naturally exceeded 500 million credits, but because it was for internal members, this was its price.
Many precious treasures were, in a way, half-sold and half-gifted to internal members. For example, Xu Jingming’s Primordial Battle Armor #9 was a gift! This was because Xu Jingming—who had just broken through—was too poor to afford it.
...
“4th: Black-star Primordial Battle Armor (100 in total). Exchange price: 100 million credits. Everyone is limited to one set. Limited to personal use.”
This was the Primordial Research Institute’s battle armor second only to the numbered ones.
“5: …”
…
“59: Heavenly Fire Needles (10 in total). Exchange price: 50 million credits. Everyone is limited to one.”
A single-use high-dimensional weapon containing a wisp of the Primordial Star Flame! Its might is terrifying upon activation. Reminder: If the Heavenly Fire Needle can’t touch the enemy, it naturally won’t be able to unleash its effects.
Xu Jingming’s eyelids twitched. Contaminated with the Primordial Star Flame? The consequences are terrifying.
…
“100: Primordial Star Flame (300 wisps in total). Exchange price: 30 million credits. Everyone is limited to three wisps.”
Without a doubt, Xu Jingming definitely wanted to exchange for the Primordial Star Flame.
Lv. 10 Origin lifeforms of the Primordial Star lineage who had some ambitions would possess at least one wisp of the Primordial Star Flame.
...
…
“182: Body of Fire Cosmic Fruit (only one). Exchange price: 12 million merits. Limited to personal use.”
Xu Jingming’s heart stirred when he saw this. He immediately checked the details—he was indeed the one who had sold this cosmic fruit to the Primordial Research Institute. The research institute had taken one out for public exchange.
…
“200: Guardian (limited to 10 pieces). Exchange price: 10 million credits or 1,000 trillion cosmic dollars. Everyone is limited to one piece.”
…
“300: Evolutionary Guide (limited to 100 sets). Exchange price: 5 million credits or 500 trillion cosmic dollars. Everyone is limited to one set.”
The Evolutionary Guide was the scientific crystallization of the human race; it could assist humans in an efficient evolution via scientifically-tested methods. With the guidance of an Evolutionary Guide, an ordinary human was almost certain to become a Lv. 8 cosmic lifeform! It was just that the probability of becoming an Origin lifeform was negligible.
Evolutionary Guide? Xu Jingming naturally knew that the human race had been studying ways to increase the probability of becoming an Origin lifeform through technology.
The more Origin lifeforms there were, the higher the chance of nurturing high-dimensional lifeforms.
The cost of producing an Evolutionary Guide with humanity’s present state of technology was high, and they only had the confidence of guaranteeing a Lv. 8 cosmic lifeform. They had not made any breakthroughs on going from Lv. 8 to Lv. 9.
Therefore, an Evolutionary Guide was a little useless; it was not worth spending 500 trillion to nurture a Lv. 8 cosmic lifeform.
Of course, as long as the Evolutionary Guide was maintained appropriately, it could be treated as a family heirloom.
500 trillion for one isn’t expensive. If I have the chance, I can buy one, Xu Jingming thought. He would definitely focus on the other treasures first. It wouldn’t be too late to exchange for the Evolutionary Guide if there were any left.
*******
After the official members received the Primordial Research Institute’s exchange list, it naturally quickly spread.
The 17 top factions’ slightly well-informed Origin lifeforms learned of this list.
Many large corporations and large families knew about it. They wanted treasures even if powerful Origin lifeforms didn’t value them—even the cheapest Evolutionary Guide was a family heirloom for a large family.
“Has the Primordial Research Institute gone crazy?”
“It’s amazing to have one Abyss Fire Lotus Seed released in the past. There are a total of five this time?”
“They are even offering 300 wisps of the Primordial Star Flame! It was usually limited to 100 wisps.”
Many Lv. 10 Origin lifeforms sensed that the quality and quantity of treasures released by the Primordial Research Institute had increased comprehensively.
…
“Abyss Fire Lotus Seed!” The thin Inzel looked at the exchange list and instantly targeted the Abyss Fire Lotus Seed.
The Primordial Research Institute is actually willing to release the Abyss Fire Lotus Seed. This is the first time in 50,000 years that they have released one. Inzel’s eyes burned. I have to obtain it at all costs.
His strength was ranked in the top few in Eternal Academy, but that was the strength he obtained from falling into the abyss.
But if one’s mind fell into the abyss, the corruption would only be greater.
The Abyss Fire Lotus Seed can help me withstand the corruption of external forces and nourish my mind, allowing my comprehension to improve in every aspect, Inzel thought. If it can be used for a thousand years, I might be able to break through to become a cosmic legend.
…
Abyss Fire Lotus Seed? Another powerhouse from Eternal Academy, Lancel, also had his eyes on it. This is a rare treasure that’s very suitable for our Abyss lineage.
…
“Abyss Fire Lotus Seed?”
…
“Abyss Fire Lotus Seed?”
These five Abyss Fire Lotus seeds stirred the minds of many top powerhouses in the cosmic human race. After all, their mental strength would undergo a comprehensive transformation that lasted for a thousand years. Perhaps they could use this opportunity to break through their bottlenecks and become cosmic legends.
Who could resist the temptation of breaking through to become a cosmic legend?
The three strongest factions would occasionally release Abyss Fire Lotus Seeds. The last time they released them was more than 50,000 years ago.
Compared to the commotion caused by the Abyss Fire Lotus Seeds, not many people cared about the Primordial Fire Bead ranked first. This was because it was only suitable for the Primordial Star lineage. Secondly… it was too expensive.
