Chapter 459 Bridge to the Abyss
Both parties are acquaintances and cooperate many times, so the transaction went very smoothly. Not long after the final settlement, some minor problems arose.
The share of the first two transactions was not large, and the elf girl went to the meeting alone and completed it alone. This time, Li Mo had questions and asked Qiao Latin for advice. In addition, there were a lot of goods and needed to be transported in a "platinum apartment", so he also participated in the transaction.
In the end, he and Blanche had a disagreement over which currency to settle the bill.
After the catastrophe, the distorted astral realm was in line with the old astral realm, and the space-time area expanded infinitely. A large number of broken planets outside the crystal walls and cosmic garbage poured in, causing the old monetary system to collapse rapidly. People living in the distorted astral realm can often hear news about the discovery of pure gold asteroids, which once caused the crazy depreciation of gold (now it has rebounded). As for natural diamonds used in industries, they have long been at the same price as cow dung.
For the main material plane, gold, silver and copper are still mainstream currencies only fifteen years before and after the catastrophe. The view of "gold coins are supreme" is imprinted in the depths of Victor's soul. This led to Li Mo's settlement with gold, silver and jewelry after entering the abyss. The elf girl did the same at the beginning, but every time she calculated the total account, she always found that the property evaporated inexplicably, and finally found the reason.
Ores such as diamonds, gems, jade, artificially synthesized are garbage and cow dung prices. Natural ores need to be divided into two types: the ores mined from the space of the distorted star world and the other world are all slags. Only natural gems produced in the life planet or the "living" plane are valuable.
This type of gem is long-term innate by the will of the planet, and has spiritual charm and can assist in the cultivation and carry magic. Therefore, it is valuable, but it is often inferior to the best when it is difficult to identify. As for magic gems, of course, they are even more valuable.
Gold is different from gems and is divided into two types. Gold mined by the distorted astral realm and transported from other realms is collectively called "new gold". Although they lack spiritual charm, they are important refining materials. The output is huge and the consumption is also huge. The price depreciates but are indispensable.
Another type of gold is all gold in the universe of the catastrophe, and is called "old fiscal qi". When the "Crystal Wall Heavenly Way" divided the two eras of new and old, the gold of the old era gradually exuded a magical aura and became an advanced alchemy material.
The so-called gold coins generally refer to old gold coins. However, the astral goblins with poor character often mint "new coins" mixed with old and new gold to interfere with inferior products. Li Mo suffered many losses and was deceived in this regard.
Above the ordinary "old francisco", there are more rare magic coins and demon coins. This type of currency is no longer ordinary currency, but precious antiques with collection value and special effects, and even secret treasures (lucky gold coins, fate gold coins).
Because the gems and gold market are mixed with fish, and the difficulty in identifying, the exchange rate fluctuates frequently, it is easy to suffer losses and be deceived, and this type of currency is gradually eliminated. The most commonly used trading currency systems now include: the "elixir" on the cultivation side, the "magic metal" on the mechanical side, the "soul trading" on the evil camp, and the most popular "magic crystal" types, and bartering is also very common.
Li Mo insisted on paying the bill with gold coins. He didn't care about the small money he lost, and preferred the happiness of being surrounded by gold, but Blanche firmly opposed it. In the end, Li Mo, who had suffered losses on the "New Coin", was defeated. Blanche asked for settlement with pills and souls, and both sides handed in the money and delivered the goods with the other.
The pills allow her and Li Mo to save time in cultivation and accumulate magic energy to impact the holy realm as soon as possible. The soul is the precious resource required for Li Mo to practice and research.
In the end, tens of millions of gold coins were converted, only three thousand Qing Demon Pills in the Daofei Realm, one hundred ‘soul coins’ made of innate souls, and four complete holy souls.
"I only have so many pills on hand, and I will use my soul to make up for it." Joratin put the payment on the table.
"The alchemy is really profitable! Why are these four souls so valuable?"
When Li Mo saw the fruits of his hard work for a month, he exchanged them for dozens of elixir bottles, a small bag of coins and four glass tubes, and felt like he was losing money.
When Joratin heard his words, he laughed and explained, "You did suffer a small loss with the settlement with the pills. First of all, there are not many alchemists in the abyss who are good at alchemy, so the pills are scarce and expensive than the astral realm. If you transport goods from the outer space, you will naturally have to increase shipping fees and tariffs, which are also not cheap. Secondly, the abyss has been sealed for nearly a year, and the price soaring pills are no exception. However, the 'Qingmo Pill' I provide is the best pill in the Daofei realm. It comes from the hands of the lord of the abyss. The effect is stronger than the pills of the same level. Taking all of them can be worth three hundred years of hard practice."
Qiao Latin's "serious practice" is a Taoist fetus who stayed asleep and stayed in seclusion for three hundred years. In other words, a green magic pill compressed the total amount of magic energy throughput that lasted for a month. It only took two or three days to refine such a elixir, but it was enough to practice for a month. Taking drugs to ascend to immortality is not a false statement.
However, there are many precautions and restrictions on taking pills, and you must consider resistance and accumulation and removal of erysanthemum impurities. Moreover, the magical energy quality of Li Mo and Blanche is too high, so the effect of this pill will inevitably be greatly reduced. But this is exaggerated enough, far more efficient than practice.
Li Mo secretly thought, not knowing how many pills to eat? Can he cultivate the first month plate? The second month? The third month? How many pills are there for a month plate? How many gold is it worth of a "green demon pill"? How many parts of "abyss factor" are equal to? How many little demons do you have to kill to refine it?
After changing each other, if you want to achieve a small success in the Taiyin Meridian, you may have to massacre more than 100,000 little demons? Well, it's quite cost-effective!
The snake demon did not know Li Mo's thoughts and continued: "As for why these four souls are expensive? It is very difficult to peel off the complete soul. It requires consuming and confining crystals. It must be a master who specializes in this way. Moreover, the level of the holy realm itself is not a weak person, so a complete soul is very precious."
After hearing this, Li Mo nodded in agreement. For him, the soul coins compressed by broken souls were more cost-effective. If it were not for the experiment, he would not trade a complete soul. It was too expensive and not cost-effective. When he grew up in the future, he would also extract more souls and refine his soul to generate income.
...
After the transaction ended, Li Mo and the others did not leave, but instead invited Joratin to have a sumptuous dinner.
While chatting after dinner, Li Mo asked, "Jolatin, I want to ask you something. Recently, there have been riots in all levels of the abyss, which is said to be related to the abyss' self-proclaimedness? We have limited strength and cannot get in touch with the truth of the matter. Can you tell us?"
The abnormal behavior of Bone Eat City and Gray Ear Town is constantly entering the abyss, and adventurers in outer space are constantly entering the abyss, and Li Mo is also curious. What exactly is it that attracts the attention of the entire abyss?
"Don't you know?" Joratin was a little surprised. She didn't know that Li Mo and Blanche were dominating the remote mountain village level, and rarely communicated with the outside world without a channel to obtain such information.
"Actually, this is not a big secret. All levels of the abyss have spread, so it's okay to tell you." Next, the snake demon revealed the inside story that had troubled Li Mo for a long time: "You must know the Reincarnation Palace and the Reincarnation One?"
"Of course!" Li Mo and Blanche nodded at the same time, pretending to be as eager as they were.
"That's simple. The crystal wall is difficult to cross, and the chaos outside the crystal wall and the turbulence of time and space are extremely dangerous, and even the gods are about to fall. However, the "Tao Marking Physical Constitution" of the reincarnation can easily travel through time and space." The snake demon explained.
"I understand these things, I'll talk about the key points." Li Mo urged.
Joratin rolled his eyes helplessly, held his chin with his hands, crossed his hands and knocked on the table with his hands: "Okay! Let me put it simply, treat the reincarnation as a small boat, the chaos and turbulence are a vast ocean, the Hitaheim is a continent, and the alien universe is another continent. The Reincarnation Hall sends ships to and from the two continents through some complex causal relationship. The gods and demons in the main world can also use the small boat to indirectly carry their own goods to the other world."
"Over time, the two continents gradually became connected. At this stage, the Hall of Reincarnation used its own power to create a connection with cause and effect, and the interweaving of aliens. This connection is very fragile. When the Hall of Reincarnation completed its invasion of the alien universe, the main world will use the power of the crystal wall heavenly way to strengthen this connection and explore the power into the other world."
"The 'invasion' at this time is equivalent to building an iron bridge across two continents in a dangerous ocean. And we creatures in the main world cannot transform into boats like Taoist flags, crossing chaos and time and space turbulence. However, they can directly enter the other world through the bridge."
After listening to Qiao Latin's explanation, Li Mo immediately understood the cause and effect! The reincarnationist directly traveled through time and space, constantly forming causal knitting ropes, and finally the Reincarnation Palace locked the trap of another world, and then the main world used the power component bridge of the crystal wall system to complete the real reincarnation invasion, which is the way the hunter world looks like.
The demon lord in the abyss can even temporarily delve his arms into another world and capture the ant king. After the invasion of reincarnation is completed, ordinary creatures in the main world will also have the opportunity to enter the reincarnation world.
"What does this have to do with the abyss self-sealing?"
Joratin thought for a while and said, "How to say it? These bridges are big, small, good and bad. The stronger the strength, the heavier it is. Those ordinary bridges cannot carry heavy strong people. A group of weak people crossed the bridge and entered the other end, and the harvest may not be as high as pay. This time, the will of the Abyss used its own strength to build a bridge that was large enough to lead to a mysterious universe. Therefore, the lords at all levels were boiling and wanted to go to the opposite side of the bridge. As for the abyss self-enclosed? Of course, it is a magician who blocked the outer space. As for other deep meanings, it must be but I don't know."
After hearing this, Li Mo suddenly realized that he was a reincarnation and did not feel that there was anything strange about traveling through time and space. However, the indigenous people who were always trapped in Hitaheim were extremely eager to invade a brand new universe and make a fortune.
