Chapter 381: Chapter 377: Elemental Well

Holy Relic Tower.

Looking at the materials piled on the table in front of her, Yi Xiaowei said, “The gathering and preservation of the materials are very on point. They can be exchanged for materials of the same grade.”

Bai Qi nodded, asking, “Could they be exchanged for mythical-level resources?”

Although epic resources weren’t just run-of-the-mill materials and held a chance of obtaining super skills, they still couldn’t compare to mythical-level resources.

“Sorry, I can help you exchange rare resources for some epic-level ones proportionally, but mythical resources can’t be exchanged this way.”

Yi Xiaowei looked at Bai Qi apologetically, “Mythical-level resources are not common, apart from members like you who can exchange them with points in the training program, they can only be exchanged for other items.”

“Trade by barter?”

Bai Qi suddenly realized; no wonder why the Holy Relic Tower stored so many mythical resources. Beast Masters could exchange unused resources for the ones they wanted, without the association suffering any loss. It was a win-win situation.

However, the training program’s benefits were indeed generous. No wonder President Qin had said that even Master Sunrise would be envious of them.

“Then, please exchange all for epic-level resources.”

Yi Xiaowei nodded, asking, “What type of attribute do you want to exchange for? Should I keep it the same as before?”

“Keep the others the same and add a few sets of Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth attribute materials.”

Now, of the Six Sword Servants, only the Dark Sword Servant had evolved. The other five were on the verge of evolution, so trading for some attribute materials might be helpful.

“Alright, I got it.”

Yi Xiaowei nodded in understanding and began to operate the computer.

“Also, I would like to use the points to exchange for a mythical resource. Is there a Temporal Department resource in the Holy Relic Tower?”

“Temporal Department?”

Upon hearing this, Yi Xiaowei was startled, asking, “When did you contract a Temporal Department pet?”

“Not yet, I just want to try it for my pet.”

Old Lady Fan was definitely more knowledgeable than him. Since she said that Temporal Department might be useful, Bai Qi naturally wanted to give it a try.

“I’ll check for you. Temporal Department resources are quite rare. There might not be any in the items that can be exchanged for with the training points.”

Yi Xiaowei paused for a moment, saying, “However, if you really want it, you can ask the Tower Master. He seems to be conducting some research now and should come out around noon.”

“It’s fine. It’s better if there is one, but it’s also fine if there isn’t.”

Bai Qi stood aside and waited quietly. After a while, Yi Xiaowei stood up helplessly.

“Indeed, there is no Temporal Department resource. I’m sorry.”

“It’s alright, it was within my expectations.”

Bai Qi let out a sigh, which was actually within his expectations. After all, Temporal Department resources couldn’t possibly be priced the same as ordinary resources, and they weren’t really suitable for student use either.

It seemed that he had to consider other ways.

“Um, would you like to exchange for resources from other Series? Apart from Time and Space, which are somewhat special attributes, we have resources for most of the attributes.”

Yi Xiaowei opened the resource bar, and a long string of data appeared before them.

“There are all the categories that can be exchanged for with training points. There are quite a lot. Do you have any specific direction? I can help you filter.”

“Let me think…”

After some pondering, Bai Qi said, “Help me select some Holy Light Series or basic attribute-enhancing resources.”

Of the five pets, three were already at King level, leaving only Gamma and Delta.

Since the Space-Time resources needed for Delta were not available, he could only choose resources that strengthen basic attributes, like the Source of Life, or resources for Gamma, which were of the Holy Light Series.

“Holy Light Series and enhancing resources? We do have those.”

Yi Xiaowei operated the computer for a while and quickly selected suitable resources for Bai Qi.

[Material Name]: Evil-expelling Holy Silver

[Material Level]: Mythical Level

[Material Introduction]: Concentrated from the blood of Ice Sea Jelly King, a creature from the Holy Light Series, it can effectively drive away the damage caused by dark matter attributes.

…

[Material Name]: Prison Suppression Ivory

[Material Level]: Mythical

[Material Introduction]: Coming from the tusks of the Prison Suppression Demon Elephant, each carries the power of ten thousand pounds.

…

[Material Name]: Indestructible Insect Pupa

[Material Level]: Mythical

[Material Introduction]: Every fifty years, the Indestructible Insect will hide in its pupa to hibernate. The seemingly thin pupa can resist many disasters and attacks, but it can also easily become the prison for the Indestructible Insect.

…

[Material Name]: Light Elf’s Heart

[Material Level]: Mythical

[Material Introduction]: The core formed after the death of a Light Elf. Legend has it that if it’s soaked in a corresponding Elemental Well for a hundred years, it has a chance to revive, although no one has ever succeeded.

…

I … I want all of them!

Bai Qi wiped the corner of his mouth, itching to discuss with Xiang Li about switching and joining the Holy Relic Tower right this instant.

Evil-expelling Holy Silver, it was a blind guess but he knew it could at least grant a DEBUFF removal skill. Though Gamma’s Bloodsucking Aura could absorb most energy damage from things like extreme poison, there was still no defense against curse series skills.

He only explored three layers of the nineteen in the Twilight Tomb. Who knows, he might encounter ferocious beasts with curse series skills in the remaining layers. The Evil-expelling Holy Silver might work miracles

Prison Suppression Demon Elephant, he had heard about this ferocious beast. It was said to be a terrifying creature living on the barren outskirts in the south, eating countless food daily. Wherever it went, whether beasts or humans, all were eaten as its food.

But these creatures mostly lived alone and their numbers were quite limited. Otherwise, if an Emperor emerged among their group, it might cause an extinction disaster in this world.

The reason the Prison Suppression Demon Elephant could rule freely was due to its mutant constitution and gigantic power that could overwhelm everything.

If Delta could smoothly absorb its ivory, he would significantly increase his power, regardless of whether he received a Super Skill or not.

Although Delta primarily relied on the Void attribute in battle, brought about by the magic of Echo, its own basic physique drove it.

Only when the basic attributes like strength, speed, and body condition were strong enough, could the Void Echo exhibit corresponding strength.

Though Bai Qi had been training Delta towards a Hexagon Warrior, it would be just as great if Delta could enhance his power drastically in any single aspect.

The Indestructible Insect Pupa and Prison Suppression Ivory were akin, one enhancing strength and another bolstering defense. For Delta, proficient in close combat, both choices were desirable.

However, what Bai Qi cared about the most was the Light Elf’s Heart.

Light Elf, he longed for it ever since he saw President Qin summoning one. If Gamma had not unexpectedly gained the Holy Light attribute, Bai Qi could hardly assure he wouldn’t entertain other thoughts.

If one looked at the description of the Light Elf’s Heart, it seemed to suggest the possibility of reviving the Light Elf?

Although the attribute somewhat overlapped with Gamma, making a contract with a purely supportive elf didn’t seem too bad?

“Are you thinking about reviving this Light Elf?”

Seeing Bai Qi’s expression, Yi Xiaowei instantly guessed his thoughts.

“Uh, was I that obvious?”

Bai Qi scratched his head, then looked at Yi Xiaowei expectantly, “Do you know how to revive it?”

“I do, and it’s complete, but… it’s useless now.”

Yi Xiaowei mercilessly shattered Bai Qi’s fantasies, “Elemental Elves used to be a major race in this world, not too different from the Dragon Race. But when the Elemental Wells they relied on for survival disappeared, they lost their ability to resurrect or nurture new tribe members, gradually reducing in number.”

“After all, the cores of Elemental Elves… are exceptionally valuable materials.”

Yi Xiaowei shrugged his shoulders. Bai Qi instantly understood and his face fell with regret.

“So without the Elemental Well, this can only be used as a material, right?”

“That’s right.”

“Alright then.”

Bai Qi sighed, looking at the four materials displayed on the screen, feeling more agitated than before.

It was a shame he was short of just a thousand points. It felt like he could reach the target by slaying just two more ferocious beasts.

“Damn it, from this day on, beasts and I are natural enemies!”

Bai Qi gritted his teeth in the dark, swearing solemnly. He meticulously examined each resource once again and after reflecting for a moment, said, “I choose the Light Elf’s Heart.”

While all four resources were great, considering that the Silkgrass might evolve into a king-level creature, choosing the Holy Light series to balance Gamma’s Power of Holy Light and Evil Power could potentially train Gamma into a king creature as well.

Among the two resources, the Light Elf’s Heart pivotal for nurturing a new Light Elf, was clearly more valuable.

Although he may miss out on an Evil-expelling Super Skill, considering the performance of President Qin’s Light Elf, the Light Elf’s Heart might grant similar skills.

“It’s a pity I can’t make the selection in person. It wouldn’t be so troublesome then.”

Bai Qi smacked his lips with some regret while Yi Xiaowei quickly completed the operation.

“Alright, the selection is done. Let’s go collect the Light Elf’s Heart first. The Epic-level resources you ordered should be ready by then.”

After shutting down the computer, Yi Xiaowei prepared to take Bai Qi out to collect the resources.

“Wait a minute, I have an item and I don’t know what metal it is made of. I’d like to ask you.”

Bai Qi stopped Yi Xiaowei, taking out the Death Lock.

“A lock chain?”

The moment she saw the Death Lock, Yi Xiaowei’s eyes glittered with a peculiar light. She swiftly put on her full set of tools, snatched the chain from Bai Qi’s hand, and ran to the side to investigate it.

“Uh, I’m kind of regretting not going to exchange my resources first.”

Abandoned by Yi Xiaowei, Bai Qi sighed with resignation. Yet, he was very aware not to interrupt Yi Xiaowei, finding a small corner to meditate in peace.

…

“Found it!”

Finally, just when Bai Qi was running out of patience, Yi Xiaowei made a discovery. Clutching a thick book, she ran to Bai Qi.

“This metal is not natural, it is an alloy. I haven’t fully analyzed its components yet, but I found the main material.”

With that, Yi Xiaowei pointed to an image in the book.

“Bright Spirit Gold? A special metal only found in the Western Region’s Ghost Gobi?”

Western Region again?
