The Pope nodded. "That's right. Tier Eight Evolutionary Material—the extract you mentioned—isn't actually too expensive. Once a being reaches God-level, they can no longer absorb Evolutionary Material to gain new skills.
"Tier Seven extracts can still be absorbed by Legendary-level beings. Tier Eight extracts can only be used to craft Divine Artifacts, as ingredients for medicine, or as skill upgrade materials if you happen to find the right person.
"These remaining Shadow Stones we have here are enough to trade for Tier Eight extract."
Su Ze pondered for a moment and said, "If I use one Tier Seven Wondrous Object, would that be enough to cover the cost of using the forging machine?"
"More or less."
"Alright then. I'll leave this Evolutionary Liquid with you to cultivate the Hundred-Change Flowers. But before that, you need to accompany me on a trip."
Su Ze left the Evolutionary Liquid behind, planning to use the Storm Horn to pay the fee for the forging machine.
