Chapter 674 - Magical Energy Bank (2/2)
“Oh, uncle. Mother said I shouldn’t simply reveal to others the details of my ability. However, you and one other person are the exceptions,” said Hong Hu seriously.
“Oh, one other person. Let me guess, could it be the true owner of this arcane realm?” asked Ren Ruofeng, relieved.
“Yes, that handsome uncle,” replied Hong Hu, nodding her head as she did.
“Huh, why are you calling him uncle when he obviously looks so young?”
“No, I think he’s more than 30 years old. His youth and yours are different,” replied Hong Hu firmly.
“Huh, you have quite an eye.” Ren Ruofeng could understand slightly that the girl was right. “Very well, then tell me about your ability.”
“Okay. I’m currently cultivating a divine ability that’s circulating in the outside world. It’s called ‘Nine Transformation Golden Core Technique’ and I’m already at the second transformation, converging the Qi!” exclaimed Hong Hu proudly.
“What?” Ren Ruofeng was shocked beyond belief. “Why didn’t your mother ask you to cultivate the divine ability of your ancestors?”
“Oh, Mother said that many don’t know the true value of this divine ability that is circulating in the outside world. It fits the Heavenly Axiom of this world well, and it will be able to converge the power of all beings in the future. This ability has great potential, far exceeding the divine ability that my ancestors have passed down. Although cultivating that divine ability is fast in the beginning, not to mention powerful too, there are some flaws that will always appear, which makes this ability incomparable to that,” said Hong Hu.
“I see. We might have known about the formidability of this divine ability for a while, but we’ve far underestimated it,” said Ren Ruofeng as he shook his head.
This ability did not discriminate between Cultivation Proficiency. As long as you were a human, you had a chance. All that was different was the level of difficulty one would encounter.
Furthermore, the most important thing was that once a person had cultivated either magical energy or internal energy, they would still be able to trade with others…
Essentially, a person would be able to freely convert their magical energy, which could only be used on themselves before, into power sources like diesel for trade.
The more it was developed as time progressed, the more powerful it would be and the more significance it would hold.
The one who had made this ability public was the Venerable Dragon God, which only served to prove that his open-mindedness was beyond compare.
If it were some other mighty being, they might have cultivated a large number of ding furnaces 4 in their personal arcane realms to be used as fuel cells.
“Hmm, since that’s the case, you better do your best in cultivating it. If there’s anything that you don’t know, feel free to ask me.”
“There’s nothing that I don’t know, since everything’s really easy to understand. Everything was written in extreme detail, as if the author was afraid that nobody would be able to understand it. On the other hand, that ancestral divine ability was far too vague, as if they were afraid that everyone would be able to understand it. Besides that, it doesn’t fit any other incantations, so cultivating them is beyond impossible. Mother said that the minds of the people that had created this ability can only be compared to the saints of the Upper Realm.”
…
At the same time, the System had overheard Ren Ruofeng and Hong Hu’s conversation, and was complaining about it to Fang Ning.
“Mr. Rich Boss, I feel like I’ve suffered a great loss again. If I had known, I wouldn’t have released ‘Nine Transformation Golden Core Technique’ for free…” complained Fang Ning.
“Alright, alright. You weren’t this upset when you were receiving the award from the Heavenly Axiom. Besides, the most valuable things don’t have a price,” deadpanned Fang Ning.
“What do you mean? Are you saying that there are more benefits in store for us?” asked the System, who already felt a business opportunity arising.
“You’re so sensitive. And here I wanted to tell you about this later,” said Fang Ning, rolling his eyes. “I’ve seen that ability of yours before. They want to trade internal energy, and it’s possible between two parties. However, haven’t you noticed that it’s possible if they want to trade on a small scale, but virtually impossible on a large one.”
“Oh, I understand. Now that you’ve mentioned it, it really is so. If somebody wants to make a purchase, they’ll need to make a one-to-many collection. Each collection takes an extremely long time, and they probably won’t even be able to collect from a lot of people in their lifetime. However, if we use too many people at the same time, it’ll cost too much. What are your plans?”
“It’s simple…” answered Fang Ning, “we’ll just need to build a Magical Energy Bank. You need to craft a tool that will allow containment of Magical Energy, as well as allowing people to store and extract Magical Energy as they please. Nobody is as credible as Vigilante A, and the follow-up to the ability isn’t finished yet, so nobody has any competitive strength yet. Then, we’ll make it so that we will only give them the follow-up to the ability if our bank reaches a certain number of transactions. This way, everyone will visit our bank for trading.”
The System was instantly excited beyond belief, and praised incessantly, “As expected of your wild imagination. It’s no wonder you were so willing to distribute the ability despite being such a stingy person. You’re right, free things really are the most valuable…”
