Swallowing the Stars: The Puzzle of Everything!

Chapter 99 Cooperation with the Two Realm Lords

So there really isn't one?

On the rooftop of cultivation residence number 0290028981, Perseus looked at the inscriptions around him. There were claw techniques, sword techniques, spear techniques... The laws attached to them were diverse, but there was no sword technique as he had imagined. He couldn't help but shake his head, and a look of "I knew it" appeared on his face.

"Forget it, there's no need to be so fixated on 'Bloodstained'."

After all, there is already a shortened version of the Chaos Monument.

The relationship between these two is that of formulas and specific question types.

While the simple 'formula' is rigid, it is sufficient for comprehending the essence of spatial laws. However, in order to completely replicate the Chaos Monument, the energy crystals used as materials are still somewhat insufficient.

"We can have a chat with Meng Sui!"

When Meng Sui suddenly received a communication request from Perseus, he was a little surprised, wondering what the former wanted to talk to him about.

Upon learning about a series of special commodities such as life crystals and gravity potions, and that Perseus wanted to cooperate with him, this human genius became serious.

"Is this deal simply about seeking cooperation with me?"

"I also contacted Xinglan."

Meng Sui clearly didn't have much of an impression of the previous fox-human realm lord.

However, the potential revenue from this deal is quite substantial. Perseus provides the technology, while he provides the connections. With the two working together, the deal can proceed.

"This also creates a problem for subsequent transportation."

"I have immortal servants."

Meng Sui gave Perseus a deep look, silently elevating the importance of this collaborator even further.

"Then why did you come to me?"

"The Mengnian Clan is a royal family, which can endorse the cooperation, but Meng Sui, you wouldn't be foolish enough to give up your own interests..."

"I can't." A smile appeared on Meng Sui's face.

This was the first time he had made friends from another ethnic group.

Regarding the collaboration, as Perseus said, he had the ability to endorse his friend.

The premise is that the final return can justify his expenditure.

"Let's talk in detail when we meet."

This time, Meng Sui took the initiative to place it at his cultivation residence, numbered 0290028981.

When he arrived, Xinglan was also there. Subsequently, the three of them finalized various matters regarding this collaboration.

First, there's the input and output of various commodities... the top priority is, of course, the Life Crystal Core.

This treasure works similarly to nutrient solution, although it is indeed much more expensive than ordinary nutrient solution, it can provide an instant boost – this is the advantage of life crystal core.

Other types of Force weapons and armor also have their own advantages.

This time, Perseus selected products with special effects that were slightly better than ordinary Tier 5 equipment, such as secondary imitations with a 100% success rate in flying circles and domain treasures that could form a 'pseudo-law kingdom'... Meng Sui and Xing Lan were also unaware for the first time that Perseus actually had so many side businesses.

He's both a pharmacist and a treasure refiner.

"So, are you able to manage running so many routes at the same time?"

This is a question that both Meng Sui and Xing Lan have.

Perseus gave an answer that was far beyond what one could have imagined.

"I have a secret technique for creating clones."

"Furthermore, you can also use this clone technique."

Their breathing suddenly became heavy.

Both Meng Sui and Xing Lan have powerful backers. As members of royal families or human branches with venerable figures within their clans, they are well aware of what the clones represent.

They simply hadn't had the opportunity to acquire their own clones before.

If it were truly possible to create clones...

"Could you describe what kind of clone technique it is?"

"The secret technique I acquired is called Dual Mind Beast Body."

Perseus explained the principles of the dual-spirit beast body to the two of them in detail.

Soon, Meng Sui noticed the blind spot.

"Does this mean that the beast tamer and the beast master must be in sync?"

"This is troublesome."

"But I have another way."

Following Perseus's gaze, the two turned to look at the Time Demon Butterfly.

"So you mean this demonic butterfly..."

"Yes."

"Among the plant life I studied, there is a special kind of Soul-Binding Wood. It cannot be propagated through other means. It can only be mutated by the co-fusion of two existing plants. The probability of mutation is only 0.01%. I tried countless times before I barely managed to cultivate one plant."

"This Soul-Binding Tree eventually produced three Soul-Binding Tree Seeds."

Perseus soon had two more seeds in his hand.

Its entire body is emerald green with a strange fluorescent glow, but it has no life force and can only be activated by the infusion of spiritual power.

However, if it is a card before it has been fully formed.

【Samsung Heterogeneous Energy Plate - Soul-Binding Wood Seed - Secondary Level 10+】

[Description: After being infused with spiritual power, a special mark is formed that can exert a powerful restraint on life forms at or below the level of a Realm Lord, retaining 70% of their comprehension and aptitude, causing a permanent and irreversible change in their thinking, and making them loyal to the subject who planted the Soul-Binding Wood Seal... This mark can be inherited through bloodline.]

[Note: The secondary Soul-Binding Wood Seed retains traces of the original Soul-Binding Wood Seed's spiritual power, making it undetectable by means inferior to willpower. It can merge into the depths of the user's soul, reducing the user's resistance to illusions cast by the source by 99.7%.]

Perseus looked at Mengsui and Xinglan, but did not immediately hand over the Soul-Binding Wood Seed to them.

"The limit of the Soul-Binding Wood Seed's control is a hundred times the level of life."

"If you want my Soul-Binding Wood Seed, I'll give you 3 Chaos Yuan, plus the 'Dual Mind Beast Body' secret technique, which will cost you 2 Chaos Yuan..."

"I'll buy it/I want it."

No one really refused.

Including Xinglan.

Although he couldn't just casually come up with the funds like Meng Sui, he could still seek help from his backer—a powerful fox-person who had been granted a title.

That was his great-uncle.

In the long history of the fox-people of the Desolate Peak Universe Kingdom, only one Xinglan has emerged, who not only has the hope of breaking through to immortality but also has the possibility of leaping to the rank of marquis.

Now that he has encountered such a treasure that can "enhance talent," he is determined to obtain the Soul-Binding Wood Seed, no matter the cost.

Both of them were clearly fooled by Perseus.

They thought there would be no danger in Chaos City, little did they know that Perseus was playing a trick on them.

The good relationship between the two parties now means that this collaboration may be able to proceed smoothly for a period of time.

When the truth finally comes out, Perseus will naturally show these two naive guys what it means to get something for nothing.

The specific profit-sharing arrangement was finally determined.

The three companies provide the raw materials together, Perseus provides the technology, and the remaining sales channels are handled by them, plus each person invests 10,000 yuan.

"I'll take 20% of the remaining profits," Xinglan said, choosing to back down.

Meng Sui glanced at Perseus, "I take 40%... no, 35%, the remaining 45% is for Perseus."

The three then discussed the follow-up arrangements in detail.

Finally, after agreeing to hunt Chaos Beasts together later, the two left one after the other, preparing to find a suitable place to cultivate and settle down.
