A World Worth Protecting Chapter 802

Chapter 802 - The Exchange of Life Essences!

Exchange Life Essences? Wang Baole was stunned. He felt that the statement was a little weird. He secretly thought that the exchange of life essences was extremely dangerous. Moreover, essences involved the core of one’s soul and couldn’t be easily traded away…

Thinking to that point, Wang Baole was a little cautious and was about to control his Dharmic Battleship to leave. But just as he was about to leave, a wisp of aura similar to that of the stone golem patriarch suddenly spread forth from within the star system. Not waiting for Wang Baole’s expression to change, the second and third wisp of Planet realm auras congruent to that of the Sovereign Patriarch also spread forth.

Like a sun paired with two moons, they engulfed the entire star system. Luckily, the three mighty figures’ auras were gentle, and their suppressive forces were restrained. However… they still shook Wang Baole’s soul.

Why are there so many Eternal Star realm individuals? Including this place, I’ve already met two during my journey! Wang Baole felt his mouth go dry. He was quickly pondering in his mind whether to continue using his senior brother’s name or to try using his Dao Scripture to scare them. Meanwhile, the three auras trapped Wang Baole there. As the nearest vine to him shook slightly, seven to eight silhouettes flew out from within the fruit planet under the vine and stepped onto a leaf.

The leaf quickly spread and neared where Wang Baole was.

Wang Baole blinked and secretly sighed. Since the three auras had trapped him, Wang Baole didn’t dare to forcefully leave. So as he felt depressed in his heart, he tilted his head to stare at Little Wu.

Little Wu felt confused after being stared at. After being stunned for a while, he didn’t know how he bothered his daddy and felt indignant in his heart.

Wang Baole also didn’t know why he wanted to stare at Little Wu. But after doing so, he felt more comforted in his heart. After coughing, he stopped considering how to leave. Instead, he flew out of his Dharmic Battleship with a flick of his body, gazing at the approaching leaf and the seven to eight cultivators atop it.

Those cultivators looked similar to humans, but their ears were a little long, making them look like rabbits. Their bodies also looked very strong, with each of them having round waists and large arms. While the muscles on their bodies were like jumping mice and startled people, they also made it easy to neglect their gender…

The seven to eight cultivators who looked like strong men were actually all female. As for their cultivations, their leader was a Spirit Immortal, while the rest of them were at least early-stage Soul Conduits. At the same time, not only did they not have any enmity towards foreigners on their faces, they were actually somewhat fanatical. After nearing, they all looked at Wang Baole.

Being looked at like that by those females, Wang Baole felt a strange palpitation in his heart. Therefore, he quickly cupped his fists and spread his Divine Sense.

“Chen Qing civilization envoy, Long Nanzi, greets his fellow Daoists.”

The Divine Sense was the best way to break past the language barrier. Wang Baole learned this from his multiple expeditions. As his Divine Sense spread out, the vine leaf the females were on also stopped within the cosmos in front of Wang Baole. The Spirit Immortal female leader atop the leaf sized up Wang Baole as a smile appeared on her face.

“Welcome to the Vine civilization, you can call me Ling Shan.”

A smile was often the easiest and most direct communication method when strangers came into contact for the first time. Sometimes, it could convey many different meanings and was often quite effective. But because the smile was overly fanatical, Wang Baole couldn’t help but feel nervous. So he tested the waters by asking a few questions.

The several females from the vine civilization answered each and every one of Wang Baole’s questions. Such sincerity made Wang Baole even more nervous. But he gained a deeper understanding of the star system more or less.

The vine civilization was indeed a matriarchal civilization. Although there were male cultivators there, they were a minority in terms of both numbers and status. At the same time, the vine civilization was spread across the Never-Ending Clan’s star domain like dandelions. They spread out to become tribe-like small civilizations of various sizes and were part of the few neutral parties. They didn’t actively participate in battle, but if someone messed with them, all of the tribes would gather together to unleash a counterattack.

This place was one of the vine civilization’s many tribe star systems. Towards Wang Baole’s arrival, they were very enthusiastic. They even invited Wang Baole to head to one of the planets to rest.

At first, Wang Baole decided not to go. However, being engulfed by the auras of the Eternal Star realm and Planet realm mighty figures, he had no choice but to agree. He stored his Half-Dharmic Battleship, brought along Little Wu and the donkey, and stepped onto the vine leaf.

Worried that the donkey couldn’t control its mouth and would eat something it wasn’t supposed to, thereby bringing trouble to himself, Wang Baole thought for a moment and stored the donkey, who was visibly excited, into his storage bag.

Little Wu is fine, this child doesn’t eat anything he sees. Wang Baole coughed. As he was about to ask the females more questions, their gazes turned towards Little Wu, and their eyes became visibly brighter. There were even some who were whispering to one another. This scene made Wang Baole feel displeased in his heart. As for Little Wu, he was also visibly trembling with fear. Looking towards Wang Baole, he wanted to speak, but he stopped himself.

Just like that, under the invitation of this place’s female cultivator, Wang Baole brought Little Wu to the nearest fruit-like planet. That place wasn’t very different from a real planet. There were mountain valleys and rivers, the air was clear, and Spirit Qi was abundant. Green plants covered the entire planet, causing the place to be covered with fog perennially, as though it was a paradise.

Through the fog, one could faintly make out many treehouses on the ground. Besides that, Wang Baole also saw the mountain ranges on the planet. They even contained some minerals that were extremely valuable in the Divine Eye civilization. There was such a huge amount of minerals that many were exposed to the elements.

At the same time, many trees bore fruit. Although Wang Baole didn’t do much research on elixir refinement, he still saw what some precious herbs looked like in the Divine Eye civilization’s ancient literature. With a simple sweep of his gaze, he actually saw seven to eight different extremely valuable medicinal fruits.

So rich! Wang Baole’s heart beat faster. After blinking, he pondered about whether he could trade for some here.

Bringing this thought with him, Wang Baole also saw some winged children on the way to the planet. Their little faces peeked out from the fog occasionally as they looked towards Wang Baole and company curiously before quickly going back into the fog. As they did so, sounds of frolicking spread in waves.

This scene would make anyone’s soul calm down unwittingly. Wang Baole also heaved a sigh of relief. He noticed that the general atmosphere of the vine civilization was the same as what he scouted out previously. According to the records of the ancient literature that Wang Baole read in the Divine Eye civilization, when meeting such kind civilizations, so long as one didn’t do anything taboo, they would normally not be in any danger.

This was actually true. Wang Baole was invited onto that planet and entered a palace meant for welcoming guests on one of the mountain peaks out of the many mountains. When he entered, spirit fruit, wine, and other delicacies that Wang Baole hadn’t seen before and couldn’t name but felt could be eaten were served by the vine civilization’s female cultivators.

Those female cultivators still all had huge arms, round waists, and majestic auras. After becoming used to it, Wang Baole’s previous feelings of shock and fear lessened. So after pondering for a moment, he cupped his fists courteously while speaking towards the Spirit Immortal female who received him.

“Senior Ling Shan, is it possible to trade for some materials here?”

Hearing that, the Spirit Immortal female laughed. After raising her right hand, a jade slip appeared in her giant hand, and she passed it to Wang Baole.

“Fellow Daoist Long Nanzi, while our vine civilization remains a neutral civilization, we also provide fair trade deals for visitors from all civilizations. So long as you have enough plant stones, you can exchange them for any of the items listed here.”

After hearing that, Wang Baole’s eyes shone. After taking a look at the jade slip, his heart unwittingly beat faster. Truly, the types of items listed in the jade slip were so comprehensive that it exceeded his knowledge. He hadn’t heard of many of the materials listed inside.

And every type had a corresponding number of plant stones required to exchange for it. It could range from one to thousands and even to hundreds of thousands. The most expensive item of all was an Eternal Star Pill!

It was worth more than three million plant stones!

Wang Baole blinked, raised his head to look at the female, and asked courteously, “Senior Ling Shan, may I know the exchange rate between plant stones and Spirit Stones?”

Faced with Wang Baole’s inquiry, Ling Shan smiled and shook her head while saying, “Fellow Daoist Long Nanzi, Spirit Stones cannot be exchanged for plant stones. Plant stones are an item unique to the vine civilization. There’s only one way to exchange for them. That is… exchanging for them using your life essence!”

Status: Ongoing Type: Author: , Released: 2018 Native Language: Chinese
By the year 3029 CE, Earth’s technology has developed rapidly, borders no longer exist, and Earth has been unified, marking the beginning of the era of the Federation. At that time, a huge sword flew from the heavens, piercing the sun and causing a huge sensation on Earth. Perhaps because the scabbard of the sword was already in tatters, countless shards have broken off from it following the collision with the sun and spread across the universe. Many of these shards have landed on various places across Earth. With the arrival of the bronze sword and its shards, a new unlimited energy source has suddenly appeared on Earth. This energy source has since been named Spirit Qi. Spirit Qi is like air, thick in some places and thin in others. As the Federation and other factions gather more shards, they discover more information on cultivation, pill refinement, Spirit Stone refinement, and other techniques. The words on the shards have an ancient feel to them, making it a trend for people to use ancient language. The appearance of Spirit Qi rapidly makes the original energy sources obsolete and has completely changed people’s lives. Not only has the Spirit Internet been formed, Spirit Qi has also changed the course of Human Civilization, causing the world to enter a civilization of cultivation. This would later come to be known as the Spirit Inception Era.
