332: book of laws

Luo Ji's words carried a lot of information. If Lin Tianwei's guess was correct, he was likely talking about Blue Star.

The disappeared planet and the Dawn Merchant Guild were the best clues.

Even under these circumstances, Lin Tianwei remained composed, not letting Luo Ji detect any abnormality.

Luo Ji, however, didn't notice Lin Tianwei's unusual behavior. After all, he would never have imagined that the culprit behind the planet's disappearance was right in front of him.

He continued, "However, no matter how hard this Cosmic Beast tried, he could only glimpse a corner of the past using his King Level Time Reversal Talent."

"He saw a forbidden existence that absolutely should not be mentioned lightly, a scene where it completely devoured the planet in one gulp."

"This planet must have become food for this forbidden existence."

"Even if the Dawn Merchant Guild wanted to pursue it, they had no way to do so."

"There's no way they would offend such a forbidden existence over a mere life-sustaining planet."

"The past of this life-sustaining planet also seemed to have been sealed by this forbidden existence, becoming a history that couldn't be spied upon."

"At least according to that Cosmic Beast's description, even if his Time Reversal was raised to Legendary Level, he wouldn't be able to revert the history of this planet."

Thinking of this, Luo Ji sighed and said, "Although the Time Reversal Talent is powerful and can uncover some forbidden knowledge from the river of time,"

"its limitations are quite significant. Even a slight interference requires much greater power to peer into history."

"Once you touch upon a forbidden existence, it might even cause a backlash, leading to your demise."

"Those forbidden existences possess means to strike enemies across time and space."

"This time, although the Dawn Merchant Guild suffered a silent loss and even gifted all the planet's contracts to the Day Tiger Merchant Guild,"

"not offending that forbidden existence can already be considered a blessing in disguise."

"Although the Time Reversal Talent has significant limitations, Melvold is still the Slave I most recommend you purchase."

"Melvold's seller is of the Ward Tribe, and coupled with a low Talent level, barely reaching beginner, his reserve price is very low."

"Conservatively estimated, you only need less than one hundred units of origin to secure Melvold, making him extremely cost-effective."

"Furthermore, although the Time Reversal Talent isn't practical, it is still a time-based Talent, capable of serving as a stepping stone to comprehend the Law of Time."

"It can also produce miraculous effects in certain special scenarios."

"Buying Melvold is simply a sure-win situation."

"After all, such time-based Talents involving the past are extremely rare."

"Even if it's only beginner level, it can still be considered a valuable asset."

"If it weren't for the extremely low probability of comprehending Talent from Slaves, no one would spend a fortune to enhance a Slave's Talent."

"Otherwise, such a high-quality Slave would never appear at an auction."

Although he already knew the outcome, Lin Tianwei was still curious about what power prevented this Cosmic Beast from peering into Blue Star's past.

Star Devouring Behemoth?

No, it absolutely couldn't be him.

After all, the Star Devouring Beast Avatar that ultimately devoured Blue Star was merely a fake played by himself.

The Star Devouring Behemoth didn't even know about Blue Star, so it naturally couldn't have acted to conceal Blue Star's history.

Talent Extraction System!

After much thought, Lin Tianwei ultimately only arrived at this single answer.

Although he didn't know the underlying principle, the good news was that he didn't need to worry about being exposed too early.

Before possessing sufficient strength, revealing one's past was a rather dangerous matter.

After all, who could guarantee that there weren't Cosmic Beasts in this universe capable of attacking one's past self?

Burying the past was always the best option.

Nodding slightly, Lin Tianwei said to the enthusiastically promoting Luo Ji:

"This Talent is indeed interesting. If the price is right, I will naturally make a move."

"One hundred units of origin?"

"That's indeed nothing to me."

Lin Tianwei's words immediately made Luo Ji excited.

He never expected that the first item he recommended would gain Lin Tianwei's favor.

He immediately flipped through the auction catalog and worked even harder to continue introducing other items to Lin Tianwei.

He tried to get Lin Tianwei to buy more items.

Rustle, as the auction catalog was flipped, item after item flashed before Lin Tianwei.

Time Acceleration?

Time Deceleration?

star gleam stone?

Primordial Life Planet?

Faith Life Planet?

A galaxy full of mineral deposits?

...Countless items were presented before Lin Tianwei's eyes under Luo Ji's description.

The various miraculous uses even made Lin Tianwei feel an urge to buy, buy, buy.

At the same time, Lin Tianwei couldn't help but sigh, saying how wonderful it was to have origin.

These expensive items all possessed value commensurate with their price.

Arbitrarily bidding on one item would at least accelerate cultivation speed.

These items were even only a part, the most top-tier part, of this auction.

Besides these, there were also a large number of scarce resources to be sold at this auction.

However, due to their lack of uniqueness, they did not appear in this auction catalog.

It was clear that even such a dazzling array of auction items was still insufficient to satisfy Lin Tianwei's needs.

As the 'big shot' in Luo Ji and Tore's eyes, he was actually just a newcomer to the universe.

In terms of knowledge, he was extremely lacking.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Tianwei opened his mouth to describe his needs to Luo Ji, saying:

"I need knowledge, a large amount of knowledge, knowledge that can help me understand the universe better."

"Whether it exists in the form of items, Slaves, or treasures, any knowledge will do."

Luo Ji was not at all surprised by Lin Tianwei's request.

To some extent, knowledge was also an incredibly valuable cultivation resource, no less valuable than these treasures.

However, Lin Tianwei was a big shot, a big shot whose strength had reached the Cosmic Level.

He already possessed sufficient knowledge reserves, a super big shot capable of creating his own cultivation techniques.

The knowledge he needed naturally couldn't be ordinary knowledge.

It had to be extremely rare and special knowledge.

It might even be knowledge about the comprehension of laws.

This kind of high-end knowledge basically only existed within inheritances and could not be freely circulated externally.

For a moment, Lin Tianwei's request actually stumped Luo Ji.

After a moment of hesitation, Luo Ji finally operated on his terminal again.

In a short while, an ancient book was projected by Luo Ji, who said:

"This is a Law Book. I believe Lord Zeta, you also recognize it."

"It records insights into laws, which should be very suitable for Lord Zeta's needs."

"Although this isn't a rare Law Book, only recording insights into the Law of Power, its value is still considerable."

"Even the lowest level one is worth one unit of origin."

"One unit of origin doesn't sound expensive, but I don't recommend Lord Zeta use Law Books."

"The law insights provided by a single Law Book are negligible, requiring a huge quantity to improve one's comprehension of a certain law."

"Especially for Cosmic Beasts who have already used a large number of Law Books, the law insights provided by a single Law Book are almost insignificant."

"Perhaps even comprehending ten thousand Law Books wouldn't improve one's comprehension of laws."

"Compared to that, it's more cost-effective to purchase some treasures that can enhance one's strength and temper one's body."

"Only when their divine body can no longer be improved will Cosmic Beasts choose to comprehend laws."

"They improve their strength by comprehending laws."

Thinking of this, Luo Ji sighed and said, "It's a pity that Law Books are only produced in the Law Arena."

"The Law Arena was founded by Venerable Tianhai as a tool to cultivate geniuses for this universe, only allowing Cosmic Beasts under a hundred years old with a certain level of strength to enter."

"To materialize a Law Book requires an even more terrifying expenditure of points than directly comprehending a Law Book."

"Very few genius Cosmic Beasts would ruin their future by choosing to materialize Law Books to exchange for origin or yuan crystal."

"This makes Law Books extremely difficult to obtain."

"Otherwise, comprehending a large number of Law Books might be the best way to improve law comprehension."

"Perhaps only those great God-Kings would have the financial resources to infinitely comprehend Law Books."

"It's a pity that for such great figures, the help a Law Book can provide is negligible, making it a somewhat useless existence."

"So, although Law Books seem powerful, very few Cosmic Beasts actually buy them."

"General trading markets usually have some in stock."

Law Book?

Law Arena?

Lin Tianwei felt that he really lacked understanding of this universe; there were too many things he didn't know.

At the same time, he also realized that Luo Ji seemed to have misunderstood his meaning.

He only wanted the most ordinary knowledge about this universe, but Luo Ji had interpreted it as high-end knowledge.

Indeed.

Lin Tianwei's situation was special.

No one would have known that this exceptionally powerful Siberian Tiger actually needed the most ordinary knowledge in the universe.

After pondering for a moment, Lin Tianwei finally decided to abandon the idea of directly acquiring knowledge.

There were many ways to acquire knowledge, but exposing his ignorance was clearly not a good choice.

Possessing the Talent: Mental Contract (Extraordinary), he could easily obtain the memories of contracted Cosmic Beasts.

Although these memories weren't necessarily reliable.

For Lin Tianwei, who only needed basic knowledge, it was sufficient.

Thinking of this, Lin Tianwei directly skipped the idea of buying knowledge and put forward his second request, saying:

"Although I don't lack origin, accumulating Law Books now is indeed not a good choice."

"Let's put this matter aside for now."

"Luo Ji, if I want to refine my body and make it stronger, what suitable treasures would you recommend?"

Finding treasures that could enhance his physical strength was also one of Lin Tianwei's main goals for this auction trip.

As his strength increased, the enemies Lin Tianwei would face would also become stronger.

Under these circumstances, quickly improving the strength of his main body and increasing his base strength was already an urgent matter.

Otherwise, even if Lin Tianwei's Talent was further strengthened and the bonus coefficient was higher,

if the base was too low, his strength would ultimately be nothing more than a mirage, not worth mentioning.

Treasures for body refinement?

This question once again stumped Luo Ji.

This wasn't because there were few treasures for body refinement; on the contrary, there were too many, and Luo Ji had no idea where to start recommending.

After a moment of thought, Luo Ji once again operated on his terminal, and soon a powerful arm was materialized.

Although this arm didn't look muscular, and even appeared somewhat delicate, without Claws, it inexplicably gave a sense of power.

Even as a mere phantom, it still gave a sense of being extraordinary.

It even made Lin Tianwei feel as if delicious food was right in front of him.

This was probably the impulse humans felt when they saw a pork hock.

The moment this arm was materialized, Luo Ji began his introduction, saying, "This arm belongs to a Cosmic Level Three Long-Arm Tribe member."

"The arm, as the Long-Arm Tribe's strongest part, can be said to be the essence of their entire body."

"Using a special method to transplant such an arm onto oneself."

"As long as it can be used with Flexibility."

"Although it cannot instantly give a Cosmic Beast Cosmic Level Three strength, it can definitely elevate one's strength to a higher level."

At this point, Luo Ji paused again and added, "If Lord Zeta doesn't like the appearance of this arm, there's another way to Reinforce oneself."

"Completely devour this arm, integrate it into oneself, and make it part of one's own strength."

"However, this requires some powerful Star Devouring Talents to cooperate, and the specific effect it can achieve is unknown."

"The Reinforcement effect is far inferior to the first method."

Transplanting food onto himself? This was clearly not a good option.

Becoming grotesque was secondary; in severe cases, it could even contaminate Lin Tianwei's origin.

Turning Lin Tianwei from a Siberian Tiger into a monster.

A grotesque monster.

It was even possible that his consciousness would be Infected along with it.

The body tissue of a strong individual?

That was truly not something that could be casually transplanted.

Even without consciousness, instinct alone would be enough to cause trouble for the transplant recipient.

Compared to that, Lin Tianwei was more inclined to simply eat it.

After all, he himself possessed the Mental Food Talent, which had reached King Level.

After digesting and absorbing this arm, his own attributes would definitely receive a significant boost.

Although doing so might seem like a waste of resources.

Origin: 264875!

Looking at his six-figure origin, Lin Tianwei indicated that he could be capricious with his origin and didn't mind buying a few pork hocks as snacks for himself.

If the hard-earned origin wasn't for consumption, then it would be meaningless.

Thinking of this, Lin Tianwei slowly spoke, "This arm looks very delicious."

"One thousand origin per arm? The price is quite fair."

"I'll take five to try the taste first. If the effect is good, I'll buy more." (End of Chapter)
