Exotic Battlefield: I Can Activate Dual Talents

Chapter 1034 - 632: Shocking IO

Regarding the promotion through the golden key as a secret method and treasure, Lu Lin definitely doesn’t want to.

In fact, it’s not whether he wants or not; it’s that his current Cultivation is insufficient, unable to refine the golden key.

Moreover, the light of the golden key has been absorbed quite a bit by the broken knife. These energies are exactly the same as Lu Lin’s Golden Body Sutra energy, so for Lu Lin, the effect is not as significant as imagined.

Could it be that for cultivators from the ordinary world, aside from self-mutilation with secret methods and treasures, there’s really no other option?

When Lu Lin raised this question, Ma Lin shook his head resolutely.

"Definitely not."

"Hmm?"

Not? If there’s another way, why didn’t you say so earlier? Why wait for someone to ask, squeezing it out like toothpaste, a bit at a time.

"Don’t rush. This method, when told, seems like a fantasy. In this world, no one can accomplish it."

"Go ahead and tell me."

Ma Lin saw that Lu Lin was indeed curious. Thinking it might be some solace for a cultivator from the ordinary world like Lu Lin, yet he didn’t know whether after hearing it, Lu Lin would hold a sliver of hope or be utterly hopeless.

"There’s a legend among the many main worlds that people from the ordinary world typically can’t successfully advance to the Gang Member Level, let alone later learning cultivation methods to enhance their level and realm. But Providence is compassionate; complete hopelessness isn’t possible."

"The Cosmic Rules have left a glimmer of hope for all the cultivators of the ordinary world."

"As long as your flesh can achieve the Power of a Hundred Dragons, you can change your body’s essence, Cultivation to Gang Member Level smoothly, a natural progression. Moreover, if someone truly achieves this, even in the main world, they’re considered a child of the world. Future promotion to Sect Master Level won’t be difficult, possibly even to Supreme Level!"

"Power of a Hundred Dragons?" Lu Lin murmured.

"Yes, exactly, Power of a Hundred Dragons. But brother, this is just a legend. At least in our Cang He World, there’s never been a case of an ordinary world cultivator achieving it."

"Alright, I’ve told you quite a bit. Can you sell me some Glittering Gold now?"

"Of course."

Lu Lin concealed his inner shock, cheerfully taking out a piece of more than six pounds of Glittering Gold and handed it to Ma Lin.

Ma Lin almost immediately discerned the weight of this piece of Glittering Gold, accepting it with a mix of awe and nervousness, "Brother, this piece is too big. I do need it very much, but...but..."

Ma Lin struggled for a long time but couldn’t articulate his hesitations.

A piece of more than six pounds of Glittering Gold, in the Cang He World market, it would be impossible to purchase for even 60,000 gold, let alone 120,000 gold.

Such a large piece of Glittering Gold could inflate to ten times its value.

Six pounds of Glittering Gold would have to be sold for at least 600,000 gold, and still, it would be a rare find. Who among ordinary people would have such a large piece of Glittering Gold and be willing to sell it? Even if they didn’t use it, it would be treated as a family heirloom, hoping a genius might emerge in future generations who could make use of this piece of Glittering Gold.

"Not enough money, right?"

"No worries."

"Just give me a promissory note."

Lu Lin said with a smile.

Ma Lin looked at Lu Lin in disbelief, saying this was hardly different from giving it to him for free.

Could an ordinary scavenger, at best an ambitious one, really come all the way to Cang He World to find him?

"Brother, you... you..."

Ma Lin felt deeply embarrassed for having initially entertained thoughts of robbing Lu Lin.

"It’s okay, we’re just making a fair trade. I give you a piece of Glittering Gold, you give me an equivalent reward. Even though this reward cannot be realized immediately, we both agree, and what others say doesn’t matter."

"This, this..."

Ma Lin felt immense gratitude. He opened his Space and finally found a piece of paper after a long search.

To express his thanks to Lu Lin, he wrote down a huge number.

Since he couldn’t actually repay Lu Lin, he hoped that when Lu Lin saw this promissory note in the future, it would bring him a little joy.

"Year, Month, Day, Ma Lin of Gu Feng Academy owes... Brother, what do you go by?"

"Lu Lin, Lu as in land, Lin as in forest."

"Alright, owing Brother Lu Lin 600,000 gold, expressing deep gratitude. Should Brother Lu Lin ever come to collect, I will do my utmost to repay, Ma Lin, Year, Month, Day."

After writing the promissory note, Ma Lin immediately branded it with his Spirit and Soul imprint before Lu Lin could respond.

It appeared so sincere.

Even if, one day, Lu Lin really had the chance to come to Cang He World and sought out Ma Lin, who would be busy with something unknown, Ma Lin might not be able to repay the amount, but he would surely treat Lu Lin well.

Lu Lin only intended to cut the guy some slack, but to his surprise, Ma Lin first offered such a high amount and then branded the Spirit and Soul imprint before he could even react.

A sincere person, indeed.

The goodwill between the two surged.

Thus, with money exchanged for goods, Ma Lin received a six-pound piece of Glittering Gold, and Lu Lin obtained a promissory note.

Both were very satisfied.

"Alright Brother Lu Lin, our teacher will come to fetch us in two days; I’ve got to get to the meeting point."

"Thank you so much this time."

"No, no need..."

"Thanks? Ma Lin, what are you thanking for?!"
