350: Talent Scroll
It has to be said that the virtual world is truly an incredibly wondrous existence.
Even virtual items replicated one-to-one can still make Beasts feel exactly the same as when looking at real items.
It was precisely because of this that Armor was able to sense a familiar aura from this seemingly ordinary auction item.
A familiar aura, similar to that of a remnant?
Doesn't this indicate that the Mental Power weapon before him is also part of the Talent: Core Code (Transcendence)?
Under Lin Tianwei's gaze, Pan Di began to lavishly praise the Mental Power weapon in his hand.
Unlike the low-level Mental Power weapons Lin Tianwei had encountered before, this Mental Power weapon was clearly not simple.
It was entirely black and incredibly pure.
A Cosmic Beast tried to extend its Mental Power towards this Mental Power weapon,
but found that its Mental Power entered the weapon without any obstruction, easily merging with it.
Not only that, under the drive of Mental Power, this Mental Power weapon began to change wildly, eventually transforming into the shape it imagined.
And it could continuously change its appearance with his Mental Power.
Whether a sword, a shield, or a spear… This was a Mental Power item of extremely high grade, possessing an extremely high compatibility with Mental Power.
Considering that Armor also seemed to have the function of transforming into a Mental Power weapon after upgrading, Lin Tianwei was not at all surprised why the remains of a Mech Clan member would become a Mental Power weapon.
Although Lin Tianwei did not insist on the Talent: Core Code (Transcendence), since it appeared before him voluntarily, he had no reason to miss it.
After spending five thousand units of yuan crystal, Lin Tianwei easily acquired this “Mental Power weapon.”
It has to be said that the closer it got to the end, the higher the quality of the auction items, and the more excellent items appeared.
Facing these auction items that might be helpful to him, Lin Tianwei accepted all comers and began to bid wildly.
Time-type Slave? Talent: Time Acceleration (Intermediate)? Acquired for five thousand units of yuan crystal!
Special planet? Possessing extremely high strength and able to change its form at will? Acquired for eight thousand units of yuan crystal!
Time Crystal? Containing a large amount of time energy? Acquired for ten thousand units of yuan crystal!
...Under the rapid consumption of yuan crystal, Lin Tianwei's possessions also rapidly increased.
Finally, this auction also reached its end, and the last auction item appeared.
It was an ancient scroll, appearing to be made from the flesh and blood of some Cosmic Beast.
The front was inscribed with strange patterns, looking incredibly eerie.
Although he couldn't understand the meaning of these patterns, Lin Tianwei could feel energy from them.
A peculiar energy, an energy Lin Tianwei had never perceived before.
If he had to classify it, it was quite similar to the Talent energy Lin Tianwei possessed.
Just then, Pan Di spoke, saying, “This auction has finally reached its end. This scroll before you will be the last auction item, and also the most valuable item in this auction.”
“As you can see, this is a Talent scroll, a Talent scroll full of mystery and power.”
“It is no ordinary item, but a treasure containing a large amount of law comprehension and Beast essence, capable of easily allowing the user to comprehend the powerful Talent recorded on it.”
“Even though the true power of this Talent scroll is still in a sealed state, we can still feel a majestic power from it.”
“The moment one comes into contact with this power, it feels as if countless powerful Cosmic Beasts are roaring within it, waiting to be awakened and released.”
“The reason for such magical effects is that the craftsmanship of this scroll played the most crucial role.”
“The material of this Talent scroll is extraordinary, meticulously refined from the flesh and blood of countless Cosmic Beasts. Every drop of flesh and blood contains the power and wisdom of Cosmic Beasts.”
“These Cosmic Beasts, whether soaring among the stars or lurking in the depths of black holes, are all powerful Cosmic Beasts, possessing powerful Talent abilities.”
“Refining the flesh and blood of these Beasts into a scroll destined this scroll to have magical effects.”
“The scroll itself is not simple, and the ink used to outline the patterns is even more the essence of this Talent scroll.”
“This ink is not as simple as it looks; it is a mixture of the spirits and yuan crystal of countless Cosmic Beasts.”
“The spirits of Cosmic Beasts record their profound insights into the origin of the universe.”
“When these spirits and yuan crystal are mixed together, they form a unique ink that can not only record the Talent abilities of Cosmic Beasts but also stimulate the potential of the target.”
“The combination of the two, along with special crafting methods, created this seemingly simple Talent scroll.”
“If it were just a simple accumulation of quantity, making a Talent scroll wouldn't seem that difficult.”
“After all, Cosmic Beasts, in the universe, are neither too many nor too few.”
“But to complete a Talent scroll of a certain level, one must follow a strict and intricate crafting process.”
“Don't underestimate this small Talent scroll; it requires at least one hundred Cosmic Beasts with similar Talents to complete its creation.”
“These Cosmic Beasts are carefully selected; their Talent abilities must be powerful and stable to be used in making a Talent scroll.”
“Of course, the sacrifice of these Cosmic Beasts is worthwhile; they have passed down their powerful Talents through the Talent scroll.”
“In other words, they achieved immortality in this Talent scroll in another way.”
“Talent scrolls come in many grades and categories, and this type of Talent scroll is the best of the best.”
“Judging by the powerful energy this Talent scroll possesses, its grade is not low. Conservatively estimated, the grade of this Talent scroll has already reached the Transcendence level.”
“Transcendence-grade Talent scrolls are extremely rare in the Sirius Star Region, enough to move any Cosmic Beast.”
“Of course, the grade of the Talent is important, but the type is equally important.”
“The value of a Talent scroll depends not only on its grade and energy intensity but also on the type and practicality of the Talent ability it records.”
“The Talent recorded in this Talent scroll is Strength Enhancement, which can be said to be one of the most practical Talents.”
“Whether in combat or cultivation, it can bring great help and advantages to the holder.”
“In addition to being simple and direct, the versatility of the Strength Enhancement Talent is incredibly high, almost usable by any Cosmic Beast with a physical body.”
“Alright, the introduction is complete. The bidding for this Talent scroll officially begins.”
“The starting price is five thousand units of yuan crystal, and each bid must not be less than one hundred units of yuan crystal.”
“I hope everyone can seize this opportunity and cherish this Talent scroll that can bring about a qualitative leap in strength.”
“If you miss this opportunity, it will truly take thousands of years to encounter such a good Talent scroll again.”
Pan Di's eyes were full of excitement; even he hadn't expected that a Cosmic Beast would be willing to put such a powerful Talent scroll up for auction.
Glancing at the mark in the lower right corner of the Talent scroll, a tiger head mark, Pan Di instantly realized.
This Talent scroll originated from the Day Tiger Merchant Guild.
As the largest supplier of Talent scrolls, it was normal for the Day Tiger Merchant Guild to produce Talent scrolls of such grade and quality.
He just didn't know why they were so short on money that they would be willing to auction off such a great treasure.
However, these were not Pan Di's concerns; what he cared about most was how high a price this Talent scroll would fetch.
This auction was different from previous ones, as a Cosmic Beast nicknamed “Source Essence Bro” appeared.
With his push, this Talent scroll might be bid up to a sky-high price.
As for whether Source Essence Bro would be interested in this Talent scroll, Pan Di was not worried at all.
He really couldn't imagine any Cosmic Beast that could refuse such a powerful Talent scroll.
Things indeed went as Pan Di expected; as soon as his voice fell, the atmosphere of the entire auction became frenzied.
The numbers flashing wildly on the huge bidding panel represented the madness of countless Cosmic Beasts.
It was obvious that not a few Cosmic Beasts were interested in this Talent scroll.
Many Cosmic Beasts even came to this auction specifically for this Talent scroll,
this Talent scroll that could grant them powerful Talents.
Even if it meant losing everything, even if it meant incurring huge debts, they would buy this Talent scroll.
However, compared to the frenzy of other Cosmic Beasts, Lin Tianwei seemed rather uninterested in this auction item.
Talent scroll?
Lin Tianwei had no shortage of Talents and simply didn't need to bid on any Talent scrolls.
Not to mention that he already possessed this Talent; even if he didn't, he would prioritize other more cost-effective ways to acquire it.
At this point, one could also see how much of a bug Lin Tianwei's Talent extraction system was.
It could easily grant Lin Tianwei the Talents that other Cosmic Beasts only dreamed of.
The only thing that interested Lin Tianwei was the mark on this Talent scroll, that tiger head mark, representing the Day Tiger Merchant Guild.
This familiar image made it hard for Lin Tianwei not to let his imagination run wild.
After a moment of thought, Lin Tianwei ultimately dismissed the mark with a smile, thinking to himself that he was overthinking things a bit.
It was perfectly reasonable for the Day Tiger Merchant Guild to use a tiger head as its mark.
Lin Tianwei would not be so arrogant as to think that he was the only tiger in the universe.
After all, Cosmic Beasts also possess biodiversity, and it was perfectly reasonable for Cosmic Beasts similar to tigers to appear outside of Blue Star.
So, this was simply a coincidence, an irrelevant coincidence.
For his current self, improving his strength was the most important thing.
Going to the Day Tiger Merchant Guild for something unsubstantiated would truly be a waste of time.
Luo Ji, who stood beside Lin Tianwei, clearly didn't know Lin Tianwei's thoughts. Seeing Lin Tianwei in thought, he assumed Lin Tianwei was very interested in this Talent scroll,
and immediately explained, “Lord Zeta's eye for quality is truly excellent. This Talent scroll is definitely a gem among Talent scrolls.”
“However, the price is destined to be outrageously high.”
“After all, this is a world that values Talent; Cosmic Beasts without powerful Talents are destined to have no future.”
“It is precisely because of this that powerful Talent scrolls are priceless; every time they appear, they cause countless Cosmic Beasts to scramble for them.”
“Some Cosmic Beasts even save their yuan crystal and yuan crystal for most of their lives, just to buy a high-level Talent scroll for themselves.”
“To be honest, the Day Tiger Merchant Guild's actions this time are a bit irrational.”
“Such a good Talent scroll should be sold in the Sirius Star Region; it's impossible to get a good price for it in the Extremely Cold Universe.”
“However, it's also fortunate that the Day Tiger Merchant Guild made such a foolish mistake, giving Lord Zeta the opportunity to acquire this Talent scroll.”
“Conservatively estimated, this Talent scroll can fetch a price of at least two hundred thousand units of yuan crystal.”
“Although it's a sky-high price, this Talent scroll is worth that sky-high price!”
Facing Luo Ji's recommendation, Lin Tianwei seemed somewhat noncommittal, saying, “I'm not interested in this Talent scroll.”
“Since this is the last auction item, it's time to leave.”
“How will the auctioned items be delivered?”
“Please complete the delivery as soon as possible, so I can leave this troublesome place early.”
Talent: Danger Perception (Legendary) was still continuously sending warnings to Lin Tianwei.
Although Lin Tianwei was not afraid, it was a matter of urgency to acquire the items he had auctioned for as soon as possible and make himself stronger.
Luo Ji looked at Lin Tianwei with some surprise; he never imagined that Lin Tianwei would disdain the Talent scroll that countless Cosmic Beasts were scrambling for.
He then realized that this Lord must already possess Talent: Strength Enhancement (Transcendence).
Otherwise, how could he possibly disdain this Talent scroll?
Is Lord out of money?
How could Luo Ji believe such nonsense? He didn't even entertain that thought.
Since Lin Tianwei was not interested in the last auction item, Luo Ji saw no need to stay, and said very decisively:
“Although this auction is held in the virtual world, all the auction items have already been sent to Lotus Planet.”
“The items Lord Zeta auctioned for were already sent the moment payment was made.”
“Calculating the time, even the last item Lord auctioned should have arrived.”
“Logging off now would be just in time to check them.”
“Although the Lotus Auction wouldn't stoop to faking auction items, necessary inspections should not be omitted.”
As a member of the Lotus Slave Market, Luo Ji's allegiance was quite biased.
He had completely put himself in Lin Tianwei's shoes when looking at the problem.
Normally, he would definitely thump his chest and declare that products from Lotus were absolutely genuine. (End of Chapter)
