Two minutes later, the balance of spiritual crystals on the cosmic trading system had reached 135.
At this point, the spiritual energy in the trading space had almost been refined.
Only a small amount of spiritual energy remained, enclosing a faint white light that was pulsing slightly.
Lin Yun knew that this faint white light should be the spirituality of this spirit object.
It is also the most precious thing about this spirit object.
Lin Yun did not refine the remaining spiritual energy because he wanted to maintain the existence of this spirituality.
Although this spirituality has no consciousness, it has a sense of life. Losing a large amount of spiritual energy greatly reduced its sense of security. At the moment, it was slightly beating, as if it were afraid.
'Detect...'
Lin Yun ordered.
'Level 2 spirituality...'
Soon, the Universal Trading System gave the result.
Level 2 spirituality?
Lin Yun was pleasantly surprised.
Many newly born spiritualities have no rank, as they are not very stable, and their value ranges from a few to tens of spiritual crystals depending on the situation.
Once they reach a rank, such spiritualities become more stable, and are worth at least hundreds of spiritual crystals.
If they perform better, they can be worth more spiritual crystals, but not much more.
However, once they reach the second rank, such spiritualities are worth at least thousands of spiritual crystals.
Thousands of spiritual crystals...
How could Lin Yun not be excited?
He is now at a time when he is most lacking in spiritual crystals.
Not to mention a thousand or more spiritual crystals, even just a thousand can make a big difference.
'You found a spiritual object? Have you put it into the trading space? What level of spirituality does it have?' At this time, Xinglan sent a message, also surprised.
'Level 2 spirituality,' Lin Yun quickly replied.
When he discovered the spiritual object just now, he sent a message to Xinglan to ask.
'Second-level spirituality? You're really lucky, you can sell at least more than a thousand spiritual crystals!' Xinglan said happily for Lin Yun.
'However, it's not cost-effective for you to sell it, because it can be used to increase the upper limit of the equipment that absorbs and refines spiritual energy,' Xinglan said after a pause.
'It can be used to increase the upper limit of the equipment that absorbs and refines spiritual energy, what do you think?' Lin Yun asked.
When he was just looking up information on spiritual objects, he saw that it said that spiritual objects had many uses, but he didn't look at each one in detail to see what exactly they were.
'Let me put it this way. On the Universal Trading System, an item that can absorb and refine the spiritual energy of ten million people is worth about 5,000 spiritual crystals. If you buy one of these items and fuse a second-level spiritual energy into it, this item can then absorb and refine the spiritual energy of 20 million people,' Xing Lan mused.
'Is there really such a thing?' Lin Yun exclaimed in surprise.
Because recently, he had no plans to purchase a spiritual energy absorption and refining device, he had never paid much attention to information in this area, and he really didn't know about this.
However, he knew that a device that could absorb and refine the spiritual energy of ten million people would not have a large upper limit on the amount of spiritual energy emitted by each person.
The humans on Xinglan could absorb and refine the spiritual energy of ten million people, and the humans on Blue Star could also absorb and refine the spiritual energy of ten million people.
The main thing is to establish ten million special channels.
He didn't expect that if he fused a second-level spirituality into such a device, it would allow the channel to increase by ten million more. Doesn't that mean that if he buys one of these devices, he can use it as two devices?
'If that's the case, there's no harm in selling this spirituality. The worst that can happen is that you'll have to buy it back in the future when spiritual crystals become available. At most, you'll just have to spend a bit more spiritual crystals,' Xinglan nodded and said.
'The reason I said it's a pity for you to sell it is because this spirituality was generated by someone from your side. Then, after it is integrated into the device, it absorbs and refines the spiritual energy of people from your side, and the efficiency should be able to be increased by about 30% to 50%. You should know that the efficiency of this kind of device in absorbing and refining spiritual energy cannot be compared with the Universal Trading System. What is the difference in efficiency between 30% and 50%...
'Over time, it adds up to a significant number!'
'If you sell it now, it will sell well. But when you have spiritual crystals in the future and want to buy this spirituality again, it will be difficult!'
Xing Lan said solemnly.
'There's such a thing...'
Lin Yun was surprised again when he heard Xing Lan's words.
Blue Star was too big.
It would be too costly for the Universal Trading System to keep expanding the scope of absorbing and refining spiritual energy.
In the end, he would probably still buy equipment that absorbs and refines spiritual energy, so the efficiency of such equipment is very important.
As Xinglan said, the efficiency can be increased by 30% to 50%, which is a significant difference over time.
In particular, Lin Yun is clear that the humans on Blue Star emit a lot of spiritual energy, and this 30% to 50% loss of efficiency is even greater.
Although, he can now easily obtain a second-level spirituality.
Next to this spirituality, there are two more, and the ranks of those two spiritualities also don't seem low.
But he wasn't sure if he could easily obtain such things in the future.
After all...this place was said to be where Laojun once preached, and this person was the ancestor of Taoism and was very famous throughout the world. Who knew if the reason for the generation of these few spiritual essences had anything to do with this?
If it was related to this, then it would not be easy for him to find spiritual essences of this level again.
After all, there were not many people of Laojun's level in the entire history of the world.
Thinking about this, Lin Yun hesitated a little.
'I have a solution here. You sell me this spirituality, and I will keep it for you first. When you have extra spiritual crystals on your side, I will sell it back to you,' Xinglan said with a smile.
Hearing Xinglan's words, Lin Yun's heart stirred.
He had just checked, and what Xinglan said was indeed true.
The solution Xinglan proposed was indeed a good one.
'In that case...will this delay Brother Xinglan?' Lin Yun said with some embarrassment.
'Haha, we are pretty familiar with each other, so this is no trouble. I just obtained a large amount of spiritual crystals, so I don't lack them for now. These spiritual crystals are just sitting here with me, so I might as well let you take them and use them for development. The owner of our universe trading system, if we want to continue to develop and progress, multi-party cooperation is a direction. Today I'm helping you, and maybe one day, you'll need to help me.' Xinglan laughed.
'In the future, if Brother Xinglan needs help in any way, just let me know,' Lin Yun nodded.
'Unfortunately, you have only just obtained the Universal Trading System and haven't yet passed the one-year novice period. The system has judged that it is still unstable, otherwise I could lend you some spiritual crystals,' Xinglan sighed.
'Even now, when I purchase your items, I cannot pay more than 30% above the average price of those items. Once you have passed the one-year novice period, there will be no such restrictions.'
'I have analysed it on my end, and the average price of spirituality of your quality on the universal trading system is currently just over 1,150 spiritual crystals. A price higher than 30% would be just over 1,500 spiritual crystals. I will spend 1,500 spiritual crystals to buy it, so that you can also have more funds for development,' Xinglan said.
'This is already very good, thank you, Brother Xinglan,' Lin Yun smiled.
Speaking of borrowing spiritual crystals, after hearing the rules from Xinglan earlier, he came up with a "good idea": buying resources from other places and selling them back to Xinglan at a high price. However, Xinglan told him that this method would not work. The Universal Trading System was not a vegetarian, and all their conversations and transactions were conducted through the Universal Trading System, which could detect this completely.
He had just analysed the price of spirituality using the Universal Trading System, and all the data was indeed as Star Blue had said. He knew that Star Blue really wanted to help him.
Soon, Lin Yun completed the transaction with Star Blue.
At the same time as the second-level spirituality was transmitted, Lin Yun obtained 1,500 spirit crystals.
'1,500 spirit crystals, I can learn about the intermediate futures market on Blue Star...'
Lin Yun took a deep breath.
This was really a windfall.
Originally, he had planned to spend most of his funds to purchase various resources and then exchange them for enough spiritual crystals.
In that case, he might not be able to exchange for enough spiritual crystals, and even if he could, he would be very short of them.
Now, however, there was no need.
Fifteen hundred spiritual crystals would not only allow him to learn about the intermediate futures market on Blue Star, but the rest would also allow him to spend a long time on martial arts training.
For the time being, he had no rush to learn it.
Lin Yun looked up and looked at the two large trees at the entrance to the temple.
A flame of excitement flickered in his eyes.
He wondered what level of spiritual energy these two spiritual entities had. If they were still at the second level, or even higher, he would be rich.
A third-level spiritual entity, as he had just found out, was worth at least ten thousand spirit crystals.
'Brother, the spiritual energy in our bodies can be absorbed by you, so please don't take us with you...'
'If you don't take us with you, we can still help you absorb spiritual energy here...'
Spirit bodies have very keen senses. The two spirit bodies sensed that the spirit body in the statue of the god had disappeared, which made them very scared. The two spirit bodies said timidly, their voices trembling a little.
The two spirit bodies' voices were very childish, and they sounded so scared, which made Lin Yun feel a bit speechless, as if he had a sense of guilt.
'You say that you can absorb spiritual energy while staying here? The spiritual energy you absorb is emitted by those who come to burn incense?' Lin Yun walked over to the large tree that he had not checked earlier and said.
He placed the palm of his hand on the tree and sent out his spiritual energy. A blue light appeared under his spiritual perception.
No wonder, the spirit entity of the previous large tree called it Xiaolan.
It turned out that the colour of this spirit entity was blue.
Lin Yun suddenly understood.
'Mmm, brother is so smart, that's what it is!'
'Brother is really so smart!'
Two spiritual bodies rapidly pulsed, and a childish voice came from them.
Lin Yun laughed.
These two spiritual bodies actually knew how to flatter.
I really don't know how they were born.
'Your name is Xiaolan, right? You don't move for now...' Lin Yun paused and said.
No matter what, he first tested the level of these two spirits, and then he would talk.
'Okay, brother, Xiaolan won't move...' Xiaolan said timidly.
Under Lin Yun's spiritual power, the blue light quieted down.
'Detect...'
Lin Yun ordered.
A special fluctuation covered the blue light.
Because this was not in the trading space, this took a little longer.
After about half a minute, the special fluctuation emitted by the universal trading system disappeared.
'Level 1 spirituality...'
The result came out.
'Huh? Only level one?'
Lin Yun was stunned. He couldn't believe it.
This spirit had such a high level of intelligence, so how could it only be level one?
The white light in the tree earlier was similar to this blue light, so its level of spirituality couldn't be level one as well, right?
Thinking this, Lin Yun even walked over to another large tree and placed his palm against it.
Half a minute later, the result came out.
Sure enough, the spirituality within this white light was also level one.
The spiritual energy of these two entities was both ranked as first-class.
Lin Yun was speechless.
However, upon closer inspection, these two spiritual energy sources did seem to be very different from the white spiritual energy source in the statue of the god. They were far less powerful than the white spiritual energy source, so it wasn't too strange that they were ranked as first-class.
It seemed that the spiritual energy of an entity was not necessarily ranked higher just because it was more intelligent.
However, the difference in value between first-class spiritual energy and second-class spiritual energy was huge.
Second-class spiritual energy was worth more than a thousand spirit crystals.
First-level spirituality is worth just over a hundred spiritual crystals, and at most just over a hundred.
'Brother, are you done? Can Xiao Bai move yet?' Just then, the spiritual body that Lin Yun had just tested timidly asked.
'Okay, you can move,' Lin Yun said with a smile when he heard this.
To be honest, seeing that the intelligence of these two spiritual bodies was so high, he really didn't want to sell them.
Perhaps it was not bad to detect now that they were first-level spiritualities.
At the very least, he didn't have to decide whether to sell them or not.
The two spirit bodies had the voices and wisdom of children, and if he really sold them, it would give him a feeling of trafficking underage children.
More than a hundred spirit crystals were quite a lot, but he wasn't too short of them.
Especially since he had already obtained more than 1,600 spirit crystals.
Right, these two spirit bodies said that he could absorb the spirit energy from them?
Perhaps he could gain some more spirit energy.
'I absorb the spiritual energy from you, this shouldn't have any effect on you, right?' Thinking this, Lin Yun asked as he thought of something.
'No effect, we only need very little spiritual energy to sustain our existence,' the spirit entity called Xiaolan said hastily.
Hearing the spirit entity's words, Lin Yun let out a small sigh of relief.
If, absorbing the spiritual energy from these two spirit entities would have an effect on them, he really wouldn't be able to bring himself to do it.
It seems that the way these two spirits survive is similar to that of bees.
They normally collect a lot of honey, but a lot of it is not necessary. Even if some of it is harvested, it will not affect the survival of those bees.
'Okay, Xiaobai, don't move, I'll absorb the spiritual energy from you...' Lin Yun nodded and said.
Since absorbing this spiritual energy will not affect the survival of these two spirits, he will not be polite.
Since this is not done in the trading space, the process will be a bit more troublesome.
Lin Yun placed the palm of his hand against the tree and slightly released a spiritual energy to contact the white light within.
Soon, streams of spiritual energy followed the spiritual energy he released, continuously entering the trading space.
