474 The Trade (2/2)

”I am already a True Divine. Since the war is coming, does it matter if I increase my cultivation as an Illusionary Divine dream master? Unless it can allow me to breakthrough to the 7th Tier...”

Fang Yuan shrugged his shoulders. ”Therefore, I want to change for something more useful to me!”

”Alright, just name it, I'll give you anything as long as I have it!”

Fiery Dragon Child could not take his eyes off the crystal as though he was gazing at a beautiful lady.

”I won't take advantage of you. I just want War Credits!”

Fang Yuan smiled and stated his request.

”War Credits?”

This request was unexpected but reasonable.

Since the 5 Grand Organisations came together, they had created a War Credits Rewards. They would assign missions to dream masters and reward them for their accomplishments. The 5 Grand Organisations had taken out many valuables for the dream masters to exchange with their War Credits, including their unique techniques, secret spells or even treasures.

Unfortunately, Fang Yuan had not contributed much to the war and therefore did not have much War Credits.

However, things were different for Elder Smelter.

Such an aggressive person would have fought at the frontline and had earned himself a considerable amount of War Credits.

”Alright, it's a deal!”

Elder Smelter clenched his teeth and agreed to Fang Yuan's terms.

He knew that although Fang Yuan would ask for an astronomical amount of War Credits, the fact that Source Crystals were extremely valuable to the point that even Sages would use it for themselves made the trade worth it. Furthermore, Source Crystals were not available on the War Credits Rewards.

If Elder Smelter were to miss this opportunity, he might not come across it in the future.

”Great!”

Fang Yuan nodded his head and tossed the crystal across.

”Hehe!”

After the trade, Elder Smelter started to examine the valuable Source Crystal in his hands and fell in love with it. ”It seems like you have reaped quite a lot of rewards from your previous dream-traversing experience... I wonder what could have attracted your attention on the War Credits Rewards?”

Looking at Elder Smelter, it seemed like he was now interested in Planet Earth Realm and might just hop into it if not for the war.

Without fear, Fang Yuan replied. ”I'm collecting!”

”Collecting?”

”Mmm, among the rewards on the War Credit Rewards, the price of the treasures which could be used to restore one's energy or recuperate one's injury are spiking. On the other hand, records or long-term techniques or even research information are dirt cheap due to the low demand. Some of these techniques are secret techniques... It is only human nature to have the lack of foresight. In this war, the allied forces will surely be victorious and in the near future, the price of all that I have just mentioned will surely spike!”

Fang Yuan calmly explained himself.

”Oh? Interesting, interesting indeed!”

Elder Smelter seemed a little interested as he nodded his head. However, he started to shake his head. ”Although this is a path for you to get rich, looking at the intensity of the war, which low-tiered cultivator will be able to assure himself that he will be able to survive? Therefore, as soon as one gets War Credits, it will only be wise to exchange for treasure which will be able to ensure one's survival. If any of the treasures were to attract my attention, I will already exchange for it to use it. Also, you need to have a lot of War Credits with you, otherwise the profits you will be getting will be insignificant...”

The group of elders were extremely experienced and Elder Smelter could immediately think of the pros and cons of Fang Yuan's plan.

”Fang Yuan, you have a strong foundation and great foresight. I admire you for that.”

Fiery Dragon Child paid his farewell. ”If you have trades of such nature in the future, please look for me and I will make sure that you are satisfied.”

”Thank you!”

Fang Yuan took his leave and left the tent. Looking at the War Credits on his inscription plate, he started to snicker to himself. 'After all that, Elder Smelter must be laughing at me for initiating such a trade. However, it doesn't matter to me. It is already a bargain for me to gain all these War Credits by trading away a possibly problematic Source Crystal.'

With the help of the Dream Realm, it would only take a single thought for the exchange of information, research materials or even secret techniques.

Fang Yuan did all of these in preparation to leave the 5 Grand Organisations.

After the war, regardless if others were to find out about Planet Earth Realm or the 8 Gates Sword Array, Fang Yuan would most likely have to stay hidden and therefore, he had to prepare for that.

'Before thinking about victory, I need to consider defeat... In the worst scenario, if the allied forces are to be victorious and if they realise my secret, I will need to disappear as far as I can go... Of course, a more probable outcome is that I will be hunted down by a sage and if that is the case, all preparations will be futile.'

Fang Yuan casually thought about the possible outcomes as he unknowingly entered another area.

In there, a deity-like young lady was already waiting.

”Elder Extreme Darkness...”

Fang Yuan smiled sneakily. ”Do you want to engage in a trade?”

...

It was nightfall.

Fang Yuan, who had just reaped a huge amount of War Credits from both elders was now wandering in the Dream Realm, quickly browsing through the War Credit Rewards.

”In becoming a True Divine and a 7th Tier Illusionary Divine dream master, I have already consumed most of my resources...”

He gazed at the streaks of information and started to exchange for those he felt interested in.

”For any building to be built, the foundation is the most important! I shall not think about the path after True Divine. More importantly, I shall perfect my cultivation as a dream soldier master and my knowledge of arrays. From there, I can perfect the 8 Gates Sword Array, and create the 9th Tier of the Illusionary Divine stage!”

Fang Yuan quickly exchanged for the relevant information and paid most attention to information regarding arrays.

After all, this not only concerned his future cultivation but also his survival!

The theory proposed by Sage Changli on the 9 Heavens and 6 Earths stemmed from the creation of arrays. The battle among sages was also through these two gigantic arrays and therefore, Fang Yuan knew that he had to pay close attention to it.

”I still need to find out some insider information about the happenings in the royal family...”

Fortunately, time passed at a different rate in the Dream Realm as compared to the outside world. Also, Fang Yuan could top his War Credits up with his contribution points and therefore, without any reservations, Fang Yuan spent everything.
