Chapter 500: Battle Credits Are Most Important!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
There was only a single sentence describing this cultivation technique.
The heavens and earth transform with a point of the Lightning Immortal’s finger!
It sounded overbearing, but in reality, there were other cultivation techniques which were described in an even more overbearing manner. In addition, the records of the Lightning Immortal Transformation on the jade slip were sorely lacking.
That made Wang Baole hesitate, but as he thought about how dependable Little Missy had always been, he decided to exchange his battle credits for this cultivation technique. Even though Little Missy didn’t act consistently regarding the Dark Artifact, Wang Baole still felt that it was probably better for him to not offend Little Missy now that he was on the ancient greenish-bronze sword.
Therefore, seemingly having arrived at a decision, he checked the number of battle credits needed to exchange for the cultivation technique and immediately used a thousand battle credits to unlock it. The moment it was unlocked, his mind buzzed noisily. The shocking aura released from the jade slip rushed into his mind directly, and the complete cultivation technique surfaced and was branded into it.
This Lightning Immortal Transformation consisted of four levels and one technique!
The four levels were similar to the initial-, mid-, late-, and perfected stage of Core Formation. As for the technique, it would be the unique technique for a Core Formation cultivator to break through to the Nascent Soul stage!
The first level was Lightning Complementation!
This level was simple. Once successfully cultivated, one could complement lightning and thunder on their physical bodies as well as their Dharmic treasures in order to boost their powers and numb others. It would be extremely impressive once it was unleashed.
From the second level onwards, things become more mysterious. The second level was named Lightning Avatar, and in reality, it was an avatar formed from lightning. The avatar would carry part of the power of the original person, and once it self-detonated, it would be highly lethal.
The third level was known as the Lightning Escape. True to its name, it used the Thunder Art to further boost one’s speed, which by itself was already very fast. It would allow the person cultivating it to reach an astonishing speed. In addition, there was another divine power to the third level, and that was that it could interchange instantly with the Lightning Avatar cultivated from the second level, having a shape-shifting effect to a certain extent!
It could be said that after reaching the third level of the Lightning Immortal Transformation, it would be difficult for one to be killed by their peers. In terms of speed or how bizarrely flexible everything was, it was sufficient to make anyone who cultivated it unpredictable!
The fourth level was known as… The Lightning Immortal Point!
As the last level of the Lightning Immortal Transformation, it could only be cultivated by someone who had perfected Core Formation realm cultivation. Its combat power far exceeded that of the previous three levels and could be viewed as the most powerful trump card of the cultivation technique!
Such an astonishing Lightning Dao cultivation technique should have been cultivated by many people in theory. However, despite there being people who were cultivating it, they weren’t present in large numbers. That was because there were two restrictions to this cultivation technique. The first was that one had to choose the Lightning Dao when they were at the Core Formation realm, that way they could smoothly transition into cultivating the Lightning Immortal Transformation after reaching Core Formation realm.
The second restriction was about the incompleteness of the cultivation technique. It lacked a defined method to achieve a breakthrough, and without it, it would be extremely difficult to break through from Core Formation realm to Nascent Soul realm, making it far more challenging than the other cultivation techniques.
Those two factors made both its price and the number of people cultivating it low. After all, there were seven to eight other similarly powerful cultivation techniques like the Lightning Dao on the second story. There were some which were even more powerful, exceeding that of the Lightning Dao cultivation technique. However, those cultivation techniques needed an exorbitant amount of battle credits, in the tens of thousands.
What tempted Wang Baole most was another cultivation technique named Lightning Thearch’s Arrival. It was one of the most expensive cultivation techniques on the second level, requiring hundreds of thousands of battle credits.
Everything here requires battle credit… After leaving the Vast Expanse Techniques Chamber, the skies had already turned dark. The sky was transformed by the astonishing array formation on the ancient sword, and day was switching to night. It was now changing towards night time.
Even though there were changes in the color of the sky, the hot winds that blew were still dry. That made Wang Baole, who was looking at his battle credit balance that had now returned to zero, shut his eyes.
Daily cultivation requires exchanging battle credits for pills!
Creating Dharmic Armaments requires exchanging battle credits for materials!
Obtaining cultivation techniques also requires battle credits!
Advancing in rank to become Federation President requires battle credits more than anything!
D*rn it… Perhaps finding a girlfriend in this Vast Expanse Dao Palace also requires battle credits! Wang Baole shook his head. He was determined to obtain battle credits, as they meant everything. However, before that, he still needed to understand more about the Vast Expanse Dao Palace and find time to cultivate the Lightning Immortal Transformation.
As for the incompleteness of this cultivation technique, Wang Baole didn’t concern himself too much about it. He was very confident that there would definitely be a way. After all, throughout his entire life, he had fought on with his own efforts.
With that thought, Wang Baole raised his head, proudly thinking about how he had achieved everything by himself despite having a strong background and powerful people supporting him.
“Little Missy, I will have to depend on you for the breakthrough technique that is lacking.” Wang Baole sent a voice transmission to Little Missy in his mind. He then returned to his residence, and before sitting with his legs crossed to begin cultivation, he took out a bag of snacks from his storage bracelet. He licked it several times, before putting it back, as he couldn’t bear to finish it.
There’s another major issue… I must find out if there are any snacks for sale on this ancient greenish-bronze sword…
Time passed by slowly as Wang Baole engaged in cultivation. Soon, half a month went by. During that period of time, Wang Baole cultivated the Lightning Immortal Transformation on one hand, and on the other, he found out more information about the Vast Expanse Dao Palace and the ancient greenish-bronze sword. At the same time, the group chat with all the Federation Seedlings as participants became the main channel where they exchanged information.
Even though everyone had some reservations, and there were conflicts that occurred occasionally, everyone understood that they only had each other to depend on being so far from home.
Therefore, everyone shared the information that they had obtained in the group chat. With everyone’s efforts, they all came to gain a better understanding of the ancient greenish-bronze sword and the Vast Expanse Dao Palace.
For example, there were approximately four hundred islands in the entire Vast Expanse Dao Palace, and there were a few million people in total. At the same time, of these four hundred islands, other than the central Dao Palace main island, the other islands were classified according to levels. The best islands were controlled mostly by Nascent Souls, some by Core Formation realm cultivators, while the rest were distributed between the Foundation Establishment realm cultivators and True Breath realm cultivators.
The quality of the islands depended on the amount of Spirit Qi they contained and produced. The Federation Seedlings were scattered on different islands, and while some were secluded, resources could be easily obtained. As for the other Federation Seedlings, they might have been arranged to be under the lead of Core Formation realm cultivators, but the amount of resources they could obtain was also significant.
It seemed that Feng Qiuran put in great effort in making the arrangements. On one hand, the Federation Seedlings were under the protection of the Light Faction. On the other, in terms of obtaining resources, there was no great difference regarding how much one could get. Only people like Kong Dao and Zhao Yameng, who had an advantageous background, could obtain slightly more resources needed for daily cultivation.
Wang Baole was initially not anxious. However, after half a month had passed, and everyone assumed their own roles on the islands they were on, he grew nervous. After all, until now, he was still living in the suite, and the arrangement by the sect hadn’t been made known to him.
What is going on… Wang Baole felt troubled. He wanted to find out about the situation, but as it was his first time here, he didn’t have friends in the sect. Furthermore, he had spent most of his time so far cultivating, obtaining most of the information through the group chat, and therefore didn’t loiter outside much.
Waiting like this won’t work… After three days, upon realizing that there was still no arrangement being made known to him, Wang Baole thought about whether he should make use of the time to earn some battle credits.
Therefore, he ended the cultivation process and left his residence. According to the maps, he found the specified location where one could take on missions released by the Vast Expanse Dao Palace. It was a large stone stele standing in the middle of the valley in the Vast Expanse Dao Palace.
Looking from afar, the suppressive force was large, with numerous runes shining brightly on it. A peculiar suppressive force emanated from it, forming a visible wave that spread continuously.
When Wang Baole arrived, there were already many Vast Expanse Dao Palace disciples present there. They were either taking on the missions or were choosing them. The entire place was buzzing with activity.
At the same time, there was no need to physically touch the stone stele. As long as one was within range, they could make use of the suppressive force and waves emerging from the stone stele to take on a mission. Therefore, as Wang Baole neared and entered the valley, his mind buzzed, and numerous options for the missions appeared in his mind.
There were so many missions of various categories. Some involved collecting herbs, some involved finding materials, while some involved creating Dharmic treasures. Every mission gave a different amount of battle credits as a reward. After browsing through it, Wang Baole realized that most of the missions didn’t give many battle credits, and there weren’t many that gave battle credits above two digits.
So little? Wang Baole frowned. He realized that it was challenging to obtain battle credit. Therefore, he began to look at the higher level missions and noticed a trend.
The missions that gave the most battle credits involved obtaining an identity token. No detailed descriptions were given, with the only instruction being to head towards the body of the ancient greenish-bronze sword that was buried in the sun. One was to obtain the identity tokens of ex-Vast Expanse Dao Palace disciples and exchange them for battle credits.
This mission was posted officially from the Vast Expanse Dao Palace and was valid all year round.
