336: Just have hands?

If a treasure is too high-level and you don't have the corresponding strength, you might not be able to handle it.

This arm, after all, belonged to a Cosmic Level Three Long-Arm Tribe member, and with the Long-Arm Tribe's essence concentrated in the arm, it was naturally extraordinary.

Without immense strength, there was no way to even begin consuming it.

This is also why many Cosmic Beasts choose to transplant such external objects.

While it might turn them into grotesque monsters, it allows them to gain terrifying strength.

Such a Flexible and powerful arm could definitely elevate one's strength to the next level.

However, this very arm, considered a treasure by ordinary Cosmic Beasts, was merely food in Lin Tianwei's eyes.

The tougher this arm was, the higher its nutritional value, and the more qualified it was to become Lin Tianwei's food.

The terrifying energy contained within it even made Lin Tianwei drool.

No matter how tough this arm was, it couldn't truly withstand Lin Tianwei's teeth.

Talent: Sharp Teeth (Supernatural)!

The Supernatural-level Sharp Teeth Talent activated, coating Lin Tianwei's fangs with a cold glint.

Lin Tianwei's fangs were Reinforced at this moment, becoming even sharper.

He bit down again, but this time the arm couldn't resist Lin Tianwei's attack.

Like tofu, it was effortlessly cut by Lin Tianwei's Sharp Teeth, turning into fish meat to be butchered by the tiger.

Crunch.

That was the sound of bone shattering.

The Sharp Teeth were enough for Lin Tianwei to tear off a piece of the tough arm, and soon a segment was bitten off and completely swallowed by Lin Tianwei.

It wasn't delicious; it even had a slightly bitter taste and contained a large amount of poison.

Eating things indiscriminately can easily lead to an upset stomach; this principle applies everywhere.

Even a species like the Long-Arm Tribe, which isn't skilled in using poison, still contains terrifying toxins in its body.

Especially the toxins contained in this arm; even a Star-level Nine Cosmic Beast couldn't easily withstand them.

Talent: Poison Resistance (Supernatural)!

Lin Tianwei was not only powerful, but his body also possessed a Supernatural-level Poison Resistance Talent.

The toxins contained in this arm naturally couldn't poison Lin Tianwei.

After only a slight chew, it quickly turned into dregs and was swallowed by Lin Tianwei.

Although the taste wasn't great, it was indeed rich in nutrients.

The moment it entered Lin Tianwei's stomach, a chain reaction began.

Talent: Fast Digestion (Supernatural)!

Talent: Mental Food (King)!

Both major Talents began to exert their power simultaneously, causing the food to be broken down and absorbed the moment it entered Lin Tianwei's stomach.

It didn't even need to pass through the intestines for absorption; it immediately transformed into specks of energy, beginning to Reinforce Lin Tianwei's body.

"Ding, congratulations Host! Talent: Mental Food (King) is effective. After eating, Strength attribute +100,000! Constitution attribute +100,000! Agility attribute +100,000! Mental Power attribute +50,000!"

It must be said, this arm was truly good.

Although it was a bit unpalatable, just one bite boosted Lin Tianwei's attributes significantly.

The pleasure of this rapid attribute increase made Lin Tianwei feel incredibly comfortable, unable to stop, and he took a second bite of the arm.

Under Luo Ji's astonished gaze, Lin Tianwei began to devour the arm as if he were eating a pig's trotters.

This kind of thing completely shattered Luo Ji's worldview.

At first, he thought Lin Tianwei was just joking when he said he bought it to taste.

How could a Cosmic Beast buy such a treasure, such a priceless treasure, just to eat it as food?

Yet, Lin Tianwei not only bought it but also ate it decisively and with relish.

At the same time, Luo Ji was astonished by Lin Tianwei's eating speed.

After all, this was no ordinary food.

It was an arm that contained the entire essence of a Cosmic Level Three Long-Arm Tribe member.

Even if one could eat it, digestion would take a very long time.

Some Cosmic Beasts with weaker strength couldn't even digest such a terrifying thing.

Instead, they would be corroded by the arm's flesh and blood, turning into chaotic and unconscious sludge.

But looking at Lin Tianwei's relaxed and carefree eating movements, it was as if the arm in front of him wasn't a Long-Arm Tribe arm, but the most ordinary arm imaginable.

How could Luo Ji not be shocked?

Just like that, under Luo Ji's astonished gaze, Lin Tianwei devoured the entire arm, gaining a significant boost to all his attributes.

Although this attribute increase was merely a drop in the bucket compared to his attributes, which exceeded a hundred million.

But as long as he kept eating, Lin Tianwei would continue to grow stronger.

The most overpowered aspect of this skill was its lack of obvious limitations.

Swallowing the last bite of flesh and blood, Lin Tianwei said with some regret, "This arm really tastes good."

"It's just a pity there's only one; it's really too little, not even enough to fill a gap between my teeth."

"If I could have five at once, that would barely be enough to satisfy me."

It was rare to encounter food that suited his palate, yet he couldn't eat his fill, which left Lin Tianwei somewhat regretful.

Especially the Tenacity of the arm, which even made Lin Tianwei recall the feeling of gnawing on wild pig trotters.

It was a rare experience.

It was just too little, making the tiger feel somewhat unsatisfied.

The speaker had no intention, but the listener took it to heart.

Lin Tianwei's seemingly unintentional sigh was heard by Luo Ji.

After a moment of hesitation, Luo Ji said, "If Lord Zeta needs more similar food, it's not impossible."

"In fact, when I bought this arm, I specifically inquired with the seller whether they had more goods."

"I keep every word Lord Zeta says in my heart and remember it well."

"Unexpectedly, the other party didn't directly deny it, only saying 'it's quite difficult.'"

"According to my understanding, 'quite difficult' actually means there's a chance, but... it'll cost more!"

"Of course, a small matter like money is absolutely no problem for Lord Zeta."

At this point, Luo Ji couldn't help but marvel at Lin Tianwei's immense strength and abundant wealth.

It even gave him the illusion that several thousand units of Origin were worthless.

In fact, if it weren't for Lin Tianwei's extravagant spending, the seller wouldn't have relented.

Wealth moves hearts!

Blue Star is a microcosm of the universe; principles that work on Blue Star also apply universally.

It was precisely Lin Tianwei's extravagance that made the seller see profit, prompting him to leave his contact information.

Luo Ji's words immediately piqued Lin Tianwei's interest.

If he could buy such excellent food just by paying a little more, he wouldn't mind.

Thinking this, Lin Tianwei nodded and said, "Luo Ji, help me contact the seller."

"I am very interested in his goods."

"More money? That might be the easiest difficulty to overcome."

When he said this, Lin Tianwei's face practically screamed "I'm loaded."

This also gave Luo Ji a lot more confidence.

With Lin Tianwei standing behind him, he naturally wouldn't back down.

Without further hesitation, he immediately began to contact the seller who had previously sold the arm, right in front of Lin Tianwei.

Almost the instant Luo Ji initiated the communication, it was successfully connected.

Perhaps the other party was also waiting for Luo Ji's call; otherwise, he wouldn't have proactively revealed that the matter was merely 'difficult' rather than 'impossible.'

An entity capable of selling body parts of Cosmic Level powerhouses naturally couldn't be weak.

At the very least, he was a Cosmic Level One powerhouse.

Such a powerhouse might be beneath Lin Tianwei's notice, but he was an existence Luo Ji could only look up to.

Taking a deep breath, carefully organizing his words, Luo Ji spoke:

"Lord Udo, hello, I am contacting you regarding the purchase of the Long-Arm Tribe arm."

"Last time you said this matter was somewhat difficult; may I ask what is needed to overcome these difficulties?"

Despite this, Luo Ji did not appear overly humble.

Lin Tianwei behind him was his greatest backing, allowing him to calmly face a seller capable of selling Cosmic Level Three prey.

However, it was clear that the other party had no intention of humoring Luo Ji. After a moment, a cold voice came from the other end of the terminal, saying:

"Since it's a difficulty, it's naturally not something a small fry like you can solve."

"Let the real buyer speak with me."

"My time is precious; I don't have time to waste on you."

Udo's voice, though cold and ruthless, was entirely factual.

Facing a transaction of this level, Luo Ji had no decision-making power whatsoever.

In fact, in this transaction, Luo Ji's mission had already ended the moment he contacted Udo.

Given Udo's strength, he couldn't possibly look down on Luo Ji.

Even if he represented the Lotus Slave Market, even if he possessed Star-level Nine strength.

But in front of a Cosmic Level powerhouse, all of that was just fleeting clouds, completely insufficient to capture Udo's attention.

Luo Ji never expected the other party to show him no respect at all, and could only look at Lin Tianwei for help.

He had no right to make any decisions for Lin Tianwei.

Without refusal, Lin Tianwei took the terminal from Luo Ji's hand.

However, Lin Tianwei's expression was clearly not too good.

Although Luo Ji lacked strength, he was, after all, representing Lin Tianwei in discussions with Udo.

Since the other party showed him so little respect, he wouldn't be blamed for returning the favor. He immediately said coldly:

"I am the buyer of the arm."

"I'd like to know just how difficult these 'difficulties' you speak of really are."

Udo was somewhat surprised; he never expected Lin Tianwei to be so disrespectful.

The other party was requesting an item from him, and his strength was far inferior to his own, yet he dared to be impolite.

His already cold expression grew even colder.

In his opinion, anyone seeking to buy a Long-Arm Tribe arm could not be truly powerful.

Even if they barely reached the Cosmic Level, they would definitely be at the very bottom.

After all, true powerhouses wouldn't bother with such seemingly powerful but ultimately useless treasures.

Udo completely looked down on Cosmic Beasts of this caliber.

If he hadn't known that the other party was wealthy, possessed a large amount of Origin, and had purchased a significant amount of goods in the market.

Just based on the tone Lin Tianwei used to speak to him, Udo would have already cut off the communication.

Even so, Udo was still furious.

After silently repeating "This is a rich fat sheep" several times, he finally calmed his mood.

In fact, due to his super extravagant display earlier, Lin Tianwei was quite famous in the market now.

Everyone knew that a super rich Cosmic Beast had arrived in the market.

He was not only generous but also uninhibited, often purchasing items at the highest market price.

This behavior was the epitome of a fat sheep, attracting the covetous gaze of countless Cosmic Beasts.

Udo was one of the many Cosmic Beasts coveting Lin Tianwei.

He felt that since Lin Tianwei was now begging him to buy his items, it would be a disservice to his good luck not to extort a hefty sum.

Some Cosmic Beasts are just like that—they want it all.

They clearly wanted to earn more Origin from Lin Tianwei but put on a sour face, looking down on Lin Tianwei immensely.

In this situation, calling it 'hatred of the rich' would be an exaggeration for Udo.

Udo, seething with anger, grew even more impatient, and his tone became increasingly impolite, sneering:

"How difficult? Hmph, if you're not an idiot, you should know the difficulty of hunting a Cosmic Level Three Cosmic Beast."

"It seems I overestimated your strength; you probably don't even know what Cosmic Level Three strength means."

"I'm too lazy to waste words with you. Three thousand units of Origin for one arm, and for each additional arm, the price increases by an extra one thousand units of Origin."

"You're really lucky; other sellers might not offer such a good price."

Good price?

Lin Tianwei felt as if the other party was treating him like a gullible fool to be fleeced.

Not only did the price skyrocket, but he also adopted a condescending tone.

Anyone unaware would think Lin Tianwei needed to beg for his mercy, to beg him to sell the items.

This was utterly preposterous!

He truly wondered how such a foolish Cosmic Beast managed to survive in the universe.

Udo's situation was a perfect example of inviting one's own demise.

Even with Lin Tianwei's good temper, he was still furious at such an arrogant Udo, and he let out a cold snort, saying:

"Hunting a Cosmic Level Three prey? Isn't that something anyone with hands can do?"

"Still difficult? That's utterly ridiculous."

"Since Mr. Udo has no sincerity in trading, there's no need for us to continue negotiating."

Without hesitation, Lin Tianwei directly hung up the communication.

He felt that speaking another word to Udo would be a waste of time.

However, he immediately realized that the terminal in his hand wasn't his own, but Luo Ji's.

Lin Tianwei naturally wasn't afraid of trouble.

But if he caused Luo Ji to offend Udo, then he would feel somewhat guilty.

Thinking this, Lin Tianwei said with an apologetic expression, "Luo Ji, I'm truly sorry."

"Because of me, you offended a narrow-minded Cosmic Beast."

"If the other party takes it out on you, and the Lotus Slave Market cannot provide you with shelter, you can come to me."

Everything in the universe has cause and effect.

Since Lin Tianwei caused Luo Ji to offend Udo, he was naturally willing to provide Luo Ji with shelter.

Although he didn't know Udo's exact strength, he assumed that a Cosmic Beast foolish enough to act this way couldn't be too powerful.

If the other party really dared to cause him trouble, then he wouldn't mind tasting what a powerhouse's flesh and blood tasted like.

Especially the most delicious energy core.

After digestion, it could not only provide Lin Tianwei with a large number of attribute points but also dramatically increase Lin Tianwei's Mental Power attribute.

Just thinking about it made the tiger anticipate it.
