"The Royce Family is willing to purchase the Thunder Beast for 40 Mixed units."
After Jett introduced himself, he immediately stated the price.
"40 Mixed units?"
Luo Feng asked, confused by the new currency unit, "Babata, how much is 1 Mixed unit?"
"The Mixed unit is the highest-level currency unit in the Universe, one Rank higher than the universe coin commonly used in the Universe. It's generally used in transactions between World Masters and Immortal."
Babata explained, "1 Mixed unit is one trillion universe coin, which equals 3,300 trillion Ganwu Coin."
"3,300 trillion Ganwu Coin!" Luo Feng was quite surprised.
The cash he had just withdrawn from the backup account left by his teacher was only 100 million Ganwu Coin.
And now, his Stellar Rank Thunder Beast was being offered at a price of 40 Mixed units!
"There's nothing to be surprised about. Ganwu Coin itself is mostly used only in the Ganwu Universe Country, and usually only up to Universe Level."
Babata, who was in the Virtual Universe, curled his lip and said, "Domain Lords and World Masters mostly use universe coin. Only in special circumstances would a World Master use Mixed units."
"Because an ordinary World Master's entire net worth is only about 10 Mixed units, so there are very few opportunities for them to use Mixed units."
"A World Master's entire net worth is only 10 Mixed units?" Luo Feng was stunned.
World Masters were not ordinary; in the Azurewood Empire, they were top-tier powerhouses, capable of sweeping through the Silver-Blue Empire that ruled the Milky Way Galaxy.
He had heard Babata say that Universe Level lifespan was about 100,000 years, Domain Lords about one million years, and World Masters an astonishing 10 million years!
A World Master, who could live for 10 million years, had a total net worth that was actually less valuable than a Stellar Rank Thunder Beast. This truly exceeded his expectations.
"In the Universe, rarity determines value. Space Beasts are extremely rare even in the Ganwu Universe Country."
Babata bared his fangs and smiled, "To be honest, the Thunder Beast is considered cheap among the top-tier bloodlines of Space Beasts."
"The Golden-Horned Beast you Possessed has a Pinnacle bloodline and even a talent Clone secret technique. Its value could cause powerhouses like your teacher to fight over it."
Luo Feng remained silent.
Only then did he truly understand why Babata would say that Earth was very special, extremely lucky, and yet unlucky.
Two Space Beasts were indeed a disaster for Earthlings, but they also represented a huge opportunity!
The Thunder Beast alone was worth 40 Mixed units, and the Golden-Horned Beast he Possessed was of incalculable value. No wonder Babata believed that his future achievements would very likely surpass his teacher's.
Because he was already far ahead of his teacher, who started from scratch, at the starting line, his future was naturally immeasurable!
"The price offered by the little fellow from the Royce Family is very fair."
Babata nodded in satisfaction, "40 Mixed units, enough to purchase about 100 decent quality galaxies, which aligns with the Thunder Beast's value."
"100 galaxies?" Luo Feng was surprised again.
In other words, the Thunder Beast he possessed was valuable enough to purchase 100 Milky Way Galaxies, including Earth.
"The value of a life planet is approximately 700 million Azurewood coin."
Babata said, "That is to say, 10 billion universe coin can buy nearly 50,000 life planets, and 100 billion universe coin is nearly 500,000 life planets."
"And in fact, the price of a galaxy is between 100 billion and 1 trillion universe coin."
Luo Feng fell silent upon hearing this. With his current wealth, the cheapness of life planets was beyond his imagination.
"Don't think 40 Mixed units is too much."
Babata shook his head and said, "It's just that your current strength is too weak, so you don't need that much money. As your strength gradually increases, the amount of money you'll need will be immense!"
"For the Golden-Horned Beast to grow perfectly and quickly, it needs to devour a large amount of metal. The stronger it gets, the more valuable the metal it needs to devour."
"I've calculated that the value of the metal the Golden-Horned Beast needs to devour to grow perfectly from Stellar Rank to World Master…"
Babata paused, then sighed, "It's almost equal to all the cash in the account your teacher left behind!"
"The Golden-Horned Beast eats that much?" Luo Feng was astonished.
"Otherwise, what did you think?"
Babata retorted, "The Universe is fair. A Golden-Horned Beast that grows to World Master Pinnacle can rival an Immortal. To grow perfectly and quickly to the Pinnacle, it naturally has to be more difficult."
Luo Feng nodded at the words.
Through the Legacy memory, he knew how powerful the Golden-Horned Beast was. Not only was it difficult to grow to the Pinnacle, but breaking through to become an Immortal was even more incredibly difficult.
"The Golden-Horned Beast is only Stellar Rank now. It will take a long time to grow to the Pinnacle, so thinking that far ahead is useless."
Babata stroked his chin, "After some time, I'll find a way to get you a backer. You can't go it alone in the Universe. Master suffered losses in that regard."
"Backer?" Luo Feng asked curiously, "What kind of backer?"
"You don't need to know for now. Let's sell the Thunder Beast first."
Babata then said, "Tell the little fellow from the Royce Family that you'll sell it to him for 40 Mixed units."
"Understood." Luo Feng nodded.
...
In the luxurious reception room.
After Jett stated the acquisition price, he didn't say anything more.
For a transaction involving a Thunder Beast, Luo Feng, a Planetary Level, likely couldn't make the decision on his own; he would need to get approval from his teacher or the Family power behind him.
Therefore, he didn't rush, but waited quietly.
Not long after, Jett heard Luo Feng's voice.
"The price is very reasonable. I agree."
Luo Feng first nodded, then asked, "How do we proceed with the transaction?"
"Is the Thunder Beast on you?"
Jett's peripheral vision swept over the world ring on Luo Feng's hand. "If it's not on you, you can have someone send the Thunder Beast over, or give me an address and I'll send someone to pick it up."
"Once confirmed, I will transfer the money to your designated bank account."
"The Thunder Beast is on me." Luo Feng said, "Shall we trade now?"
"No problem." Jett smiled, as if he had expected it. "If there are no other valuable items in the world ring you possess, I can purchase it as well."
"No." Luo Feng shook his head.
"Why?" Jett was a little puzzled. "This would make the transaction very convenient. You can just go to the Treasure Hall and buy a new world ring."
"This world ring was given to me by my teacher. I cannot trade it to anyone else." Luo Feng's attitude was firm.
Of course, he wouldn't hand over the world ring. It contained not only the sleeping Thunder Beast, but also his sleeping second brother Thor, and numerous treasures from hall master yunmo's.
Leaving aside the many weapons, armor, and world rings left by various powerhouses inside, the value of hall master yunmo's alone was extremely high, far beyond what the Thunder Beast could compare to!
"So that's it." Jett understood upon hearing this and no longer brought it up.
The master-Disciple relationship in the Universe was very close, only slightly less so than father-son or husband-wife relationships, and far closer than families separated by many generations.
A world ring gifted by such a close person held great sentimental value, not something that could be measured by money.
In Jett's view, for Luo Feng, a Planetary Level, to be able to obtain a Thunder Beast, his teacher behind him must be at least an Immortal, and possibly even a Pinnacle King-level Immortal.
Aside from his identity as a Royce Family member, his background truly couldn't compare to that.
Of course, he was also quite curious as to why Luo Feng, a Planetary Level, would be taken as a Disciple by an Immortal.
"I was presumptuous."
Jett bowed slightly in apology, then said, "How about we conduct the transaction in the underground training ground of the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company branch? The space there is large enough."
"Okay." Luo Feng nodded.
According to Babata, with the reputation of Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company and the Royce Family, they wouldn't kill someone for 40 Mixed units and seize their treasure, so he could trade with confidence.
"Follow me."
Jett rose and led the way, with Luo Feng following behind him.
...
From the third floor of Spirit Medicine Hall, Luo Feng followed Jett, walking all the way towards the central Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company branch building.
Along the way, whenever he saw staff members of the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company, Luo Feng noticed curiosity and surprise in their eyes.
It seemed they were very curious about his identity.
He understood this; those staff members were curious about his identity because the person leading the way was a member of the Royce Family!
"Jett, I have a question about Soul-Nourishing Potion." Luo Feng suddenly remembered the question about using Soul-Nourishing Potion.
"Go ahead." Jett turned his head slightly to respond.
"Can Soul-Nourishing Potion only be taken by Planetary Level cultivators?" Luo Feng asked, "If so, how many bottles can be used at most?"
"It seems your teacher only recently finished his seclusion and hasn't paid attention to the latest research results of the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company."
Jett said as he walked, "Whether it's medicine for healing the Soul or medicine for improving Divine Soul will, both are relatively or very expensive."
"For example, the Soul Healing Potion used by Planetary Level cultivators costs 30 million Azurewood coin, and the Soul-Nourishing Potion costs 300 billion Azurewood coin. None of these are affordable for ordinary Planetary Level cultivators."
"Soul-Nourishing Potion can be used not only by Planetary Level cultivators, but if you want to buy more Advanced Soul-Nourishing Potion, such as for Stellar Rank, you have to go to the sixth floor of Spirit Medicine Hall, and for Universe Level, it's the ninth floor."
"Because Soul-Nourishing Potion can enhance Divine Soul will, it has drug resistance, which is clearly different from Soul Healing Potion."
"Each person can use a maximum of three bottles of Soul-Nourishing Potion. The first bottle has the best effect, the second bottle's effect is greatly reduced, and the third bottle's effect is negligible."
Jett turned and smiled, "Let me remind you, according to the follow-up records of the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company, the special effect of Soul-Nourishing Potion is most likely to take effect when the first bottle is consumed."
"Understood." Luo Feng nodded, not surprised by this.
Soul-Nourishing Potion had drug resistance, so the effect would sharply decrease from the second bottle onwards, and the possibility of the special effect taking effect would naturally also sharply decrease.
"Luo Feng, ask him if three bottles of Soul-Nourishing Potion can be taken in a short period of time." Suddenly, Babata's voice sounded.
"Take three bottles?" Luo Feng's eyes lit up at the words.
Although the efficacy of Soul-Nourishing Potion would sharply decrease, continuously taking three bottles in a short period of time seemed to maximize the probability of the special effect taking effect.
So, Luo Feng, with the idea of giving it a try, asked Jett.
"Haha, that's a very good idea. Many people had this idea before."
Unexpectedly, Jett laughed when he heard this question. "Do you know what happened to those who continuously took Soul-Nourishing Potion in a short period of time?"
"What happened to them?" Luo Feng suddenly felt a bad premonition.
"If they were lucky and their Divine Soul will was strong enough, their Soul would be severely damaged."
Jett's smile faded, "If they were unlucky and their Divine Soul will wasn't strong enough, their Soul would directly shatter!"
Luo Feng was shocked upon hearing this!
"Damn! Is Soul-Nourishing Potion that wicked?" Babata's eyes widened in the Virtual Universe.
"The dosage of Soul-Nourishing Potion is the optimal dosage determined by the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company after countless experiments."
Jett sneered, "When the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company sells Soul-Nourishing Potion, we also inform users of the precautions for taking the medicine, but there are always people who think they are very smart and capable, and can withstand larger dosages."
"But in fact, very few people survive taking two bottles of Soul-Nourishing Potion in a short period of time, and even fewer survive taking three bottles!"
"Damn! Good thing we met someone from the Royce Family. They know secrets that ordinary Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company staff don't."
Babata shrieked, "Otherwise, it would have been big trouble!"
Luo Feng frowned and asked, "Babata, you should know the taboos of Soul-Nourishing Potion, right?"
"Cough, cough, how could I?"
Babata coughed twice to cover his embarrassment, "I was just thinking of increasing Thor's dosage to see if he could make the special effect of Soul-Nourishing Potion take effect."
"Babata!"
Upon hearing this, Luo Feng's expression immediately became serious.
"Don't be angry, I was just joking." Babata chuckled awkwardly.
"Don't make such jokes again!" Luo Feng's expression remained serious.
"Understood, understood." Babata nodded repeatedly.
After learning about the usage requirements and restrictions of Soul-Nourishing Potion from Jett, Luo Feng stopped asking questions and simply continued to follow him.
...
About ten minutes later.
Luo Feng, led by Jett, arrived at the underground training ground of the Universe Artifact & Potion Refining Company's Azurewood Empire office building.
In the spacious training ground, with a maximum diameter of several kilometers, Luo Feng and Jett stood side by side.
"Alright, you can release the Thunder Beast now." Jett said with some anticipation.
"Okay."
Luo Feng nodded slightly, then communicated with his world ring.
Buzz!
World fluctuations appeared, and a massive beast, over two hundred meters long, with most of its scales white and adorned with blue-red lightning patterns, appeared out of thin air in the empty training ground.
This white beast lay quietly, and although its aura was extremely weak, it still brought the oppressive feeling of a top predator to the two people present.
"Thunder Beast!"
Jett's eyes glowed slightly. "It's a Thunder Beast whose Soul was severely damaged and is in a deep sleep, but there's no danger to its Life."
Space Beasts have strong vitality. If an ordinary Stellar Rank cultivator suffered such severe Soul damage, their Soul would likely gradually weaken until it shattered.
However, the Thunder Beast, in such a severely damaged Soul state, continuously repaired its Soul by sleeping. This was also why Luo Feng carried it with him and didn't dare to leave it on Earth.
If he left the Thunder Beast on Earth and his journey to the Universe was delayed for some reason, the Thunder Beast might awaken and destroy Earth!
Jett didn't immediately put the Thunder Beast into his world ring. Instead, he turned to Luo Feng and said, "Luo Feng, send me your bank account."
"My bank account is…" Luo Feng stated his bank account.
In just over ten seconds, Babata, who was in the Virtual Universe, received an email…
