"Let's head straight to that secret realm I found before; you can gain a lot of survival ti in there."
"Our current survival ti should be quite a lot, right? Is it really necessary to rush for more survival ti?" Chen Mo asked curiously.
"You might not know, but in the Sea of Cosmos, there are special ti secret regions where you can gain a lot of survival ti. You can also use your survival ti to exchange with the Ti Elder within the ti secret regions for so rare treasures that are hard to find externally.
It's even possible to enhance your growth value.
It depends on what the Ti Elder is willing to exchange with you."
"There's such a thing? I see why everyone is so in need of survival ti. I just thought casually killing monsters to stay alive was not hard, but if everyone greedily exchanges for rewards, then survival ti might indeed fall short."
"You've got it wrong; you have this misconception because you're too strong, strong enough to kill casually for a lot of survival ti. For an ordinary Lord of the Cosmos, accumulating survival ti isn't easy.
Moreover, the higher your rank as a Lord of the Cosmos, the harder it becos later. At your growth speed, I bet you'll soon see how tough the world is for high-tier Lords of the Cosmos."
"From what you're saying, it seems like the days ahead won't be easy. With upgrades, the higher you upgrade, the harder it is to get survival ti, and the monsters get tougher. But if you don't upgrade, once the Great Calamity strikes in 42 years, and if you can't reach the fifth layer of the Sea of Cosmos, there's no way to avoid the Great Calamity, leaving only a path to death.
We're basically being pushed forward."
"You've got the right understanding, otherwise, why do you think everyone is fighting so desperately?" Sun Wu laughed, "Alright then, let's get going."
"By the way, Brother Sun Wu, logically speaking, since so many people have visited this Underworld City you've discovered, wouldn't the secret realm you found already be overrun with people too?"
"Don't worry, secret realms are different from Underworld Cities. Once triggered by soone, only that person can enter it with others within a certain ti, and no one else can see the secret realm."
"That's good."
As they spoke, the two quickly leapt forward through ti and space.
Chen Mo was closely following Sun Wu's jumps.
During the jump, Sun Wu laughed, "Unbelievable, what did you get in your gift pack just now? I got a level 10 Emperor-level Primordial Beast Summoning Stone, what a scam."
"Huh? You can get such stuff? Is it for summoning a level 10 Emperor-level Primordial Beast to help you fight?" Chen Mo asked surprised.
"No, it's for summoning a level 10 Emperor-level Primordial Beast to fight us."
"Oh boy, that's really a scam," Chen Mo couldn't help but laugh, "But the rewards for killing an Emperor-level Primordial Beast should still be decent."
"It is, but getting this from a Heavenly Dao gift pack feels like a loss no matter how you think about it," Sun Wu said, clearly displeased.
Hearing this, Chen Mo glanced at the two gift packs in his backpack.
One "Beginner's Gift Pack," one "Level 10 Underworld City Strategy Gift Pack."
He first attempted to open the "Level 10 Underworld City Strategy Gift Pack," curious about what he might get since Sun Wu got a Summoning Stone.
As he chose to open it, the Heavenly Path's Hint imdiately sounded.
[The Heavenly Path's Hint: Congratulations on successfully opening the "Level 10 Underworld City Strategy Gift Pack," and you have obtained a "first-tier Empowernt Stone."]
[First-tier Empowernt Stone]: Use this on a first-tier cosmic secret treasure to add an additional secret treasure ability to it that matches its type, but note that the Secret Treasure Source Energy required for the secret treasure's rank-up will double as a result.
"Oh? It can open sothing that directly empowers a cosmic secret treasure. I thought what you ntioned about special materials was for adding abilities during forging."
Hearing Chen Mo's comnt, Sun Wu knew Chen Mo had gotten a first-tier Empowernt Stone.
He imdiately said, "There are pros and cons. If you use an Empowernt Stone to empower a secret treasure, it will permanently double the Secret Treasure Source Energy required for that treasure's future rank-ups. The more Empowernt Stones you use, the higher the multiplication.
For example, if a first-tier top-grade cosmic secret treasure needs 100 points of Secret Treasure Source Energy to rank up, after using one Empowernt Stone, it will need 200 points, another stone will make it 400 points, and using more will keep doubling it. It's a sort of penalty chanism.
But if you use system-awarded top-grade materials to craft the secret treasure, although it naturally has one more ability than ordinary secret treasures, it won't affect the Secret Treasure Source Energy needed for its rank-up."
"I see, I've got it."
After hearing what Sun Wu had to say, Chen Mo nodded in understanding.
This thing seems beneficial, but the more you use it, the harder it becos to improve the rank of the cosmic secret treasure. Low-tier cosmic secret treasures cannot compare to high-tier ones in attributes, even if they have more abilities, their effectiveness would still be much less.
So using one or two of them might be fine, but if you overuse it, no matter how good a cosmic secret treasure is, it might get ruined.
After all, the required Secret Treasure Source Energy to advance will increase exponentially, and the higher you go, the harder it becos to advance. If the cosmic secret treasure's potency can't keep up with that of the Lord of the Cosmos, how can it be used?
Although Chen Mo understood the downsides of the Empowernt Stone, he suddenly had a thought.
What if he used an Empowernt Stone on a cosmic secret treasure to enhance its abilities, increasing the Secret Treasure Source Energy required for its rank-up, but then later fused two such treasures together? What would happen?
If after fusion the abilities rge but the multiplied Secret Treasure Source Energy requirent reverted back to the original, wouldn't that be an incredible boost?
Even if it didn't revert fully, if it only considered the increase from one Empowernt Stone, he would essentially be getting an Empowernt Stone for free.
Thinking of this, Chen Mo was eager to experint.
Of course, he couldn't use an irreplaceable key treasure like the Emperor Bell for such an experint.
He planned to experint on so other cosmic secret treasures he had.
But for now, he only had this one Empowernt Stone, which wasn't enough.
He turned his attention to the Beginner's Gift Pack.
If he could get another Empowernt Stone from it, he could conduct his experint.
He imdiately opened the Beginner's Gift Pack.
[The Heavenly Path's Hint: Congratulations on successfully opening the "Beginner's Gift Pack," and you have obtained a "Double Earnings Card."]
"What's this nonsense?"
Originally hoping to get sothing good, he ended up with a Double Earnings Card.
Chen Mo imdiately checked the item's description.
[Double Earnings Card]: Use this item to double your final experience points and survival ti yield for the next hour!
"Great, I've also got sothing useless," Chen Mo complained.
"Are you talking about the Beginner's Gift Pack?" After all, since Chen Mo just got a first-tier Empowernt Stone, the only thing that could be junk was the Beginner's Gift Pack.
"Yes, I got a 1-hour Double Earnings Card, not very useful."
"That's not bad. The Beginner's Gift Pack usually gives items with effects that enhance you during your newbie period. A 1-hour earnings boost is relatively long-lasting among the benefits given by the Beginner's Gift Pack, and it's also purely an earnings type.
If you'd gotten a Universe Source Energy Doubling Recovery Card for 1 hour, then that would indeed be useless for you."
Upon hearing Sun Wu's words, Chen Mo felt better, realizing the thing he thought was trash was actually one of the better items among the less impressive ones.
It seed not everything in a Heavenly Dao gift pack could be expected to be a treasure.
Still, since the Double Earnings Card did increase survival ti, it wasn't all that bad, just didn't et Chen Mo's expectation for another Empowernt Stone.
After Chen Mo finished opening his rewards, Sun Wu looked over at Chen Mo and said, "Should I just use this Emperor-level Primordial Beast Summoning Stone now? The Emperor-level Primordial Beast summoned with it doesn't have the help of a formation. It's relatively easier to kill compared to those encountered outside!"
