Chapter 396 - 176: Frenzied Harvest, Massive Resources, Merging Apertures Twice, and New Information on Shi Dang
In an operation where cost was no object, "fairness" was the last thing anyone would consider.
But that wasn’t something he needed to worry about right now.
"Ten times... All right."
Qin Feng quickly made his decision. ’I’ll use up the quota for these ten simple missions first. They’re fast, low-risk, and the accumulated Contribution Points and Reputation will be a decent amount.’
"Hammer, continue accepting Simple-level solo missions."
"Yes, Master."
For the next few hours, Qin Feng became the most efficient, ruthless mission-execution machine.
He didn’t pause for a second. The moment one mission ended, he immediately accepted the next.
His figure appeared in every corner of the Cosmos, traveling via one Subspace Teleportation after another.
Wiping out gangs of Scavengers who survived by pillaging from their nests in abandoned space stations;
Retrieving an Imperial probe that had crashed during a mission, falling into the stormy core of a gas giant;
Scouting a desolate Star Realm for suspected low-level Insect Race activity...
Most of these were straightforward elimination missions. Qin Feng would teleport in, crush his targets with brute force, and submit the mission for completion—the entire process was seamless.
Only a few reconnaissance missions took up more of his time, requiring him to conceal his presence, infiltrate the target area, and gather sufficient intelligence before leaving.
When the notification for the tenth mission’s completion chimed, Qin Feng glanced at his mission panel.
Because the rewards for several of the retrieval and reconnaissance missions were slightly lower than those for elimination missions, his final earnings weren’t a round number.
[Contribution Points Balance: 9,800]
[Warband Reputation Balance: 29,400]
[Competition Points: 10]
Staring at the "fortune" he’d earned in less than a day, Qin Feng didn’t hesitate. He immediately began the long-awaited shopping spree.
’The path to revenge is long and difficult.’
’Every single resource must be used where it can most effectively increase my immediate Combat Power.’
"Hammer, open the Warband Exchange. Purchase the following items."
His commands were clear and precise.
"First, purchase the Level 5 Alloy Long Spear, ’Koi to Dragon’."
[Item Name: Koi to Dragon]
[Type: Level 5 Standard Alloy Long Spear]
[Cost: 5,000 Contribution Points]
"Second, purchase ten Second-level Killing Techniques. Requirements: five spear techniques, five fist techniques, all focused on offense and speed."
[Second-level Killing Technique Manual x10]
[Unit Price: 300 Contribution Points]
[Total Price: 3,000 Contribution Points]
"Purchase."
With Qin Feng’s confirmation, the 9,800 Contribution Points he had just earned vanished from his account.
[Contribution Points Balance: 1,800]
In an instant, that was all that remained.
But Qin Feng felt no regret.
’Good steel must be used for the blade’s edge.’
Next, he would challenge the Warrior Level missions.
The enemies there would be true powerhouses with life force indexes similar to his own—or even higher.
He absolutely could not afford to fall behind in terms of equipment and his arsenal of Killing Techniques.
Having spent his Contribution Points, his gaze immediately shifted to his equally substantial store of Warband Reputation.
"Hammer, open the Warband Reputation Repository."
An exchange list, completely different from the Contribution Points Exchange, appeared before him.
There were no weapons or equipment here, only various rare, top-tier Potions and resources to aid cultivation.
Qin Feng’s gaze locked precisely onto the items he had already planned to acquire.
[Reinforced Type II Spiritual Energy Potion: Cost 800 Reputation/vial]
[Reinforced Type II Deep-Repair Bath: Cost 400 Reputation/dose]
[Reinforced Type II Mental Power Recovery Potion: Cost 500 Reputation/vial]
These were the most efficient cultivation resources, perfectly suited for his current life force index of 3,600!
"Redeem twenty vials of ’Reinforced Type II Spiritual Energy Potion’."
-16,000 Warband Reputation;
"Redeem twenty doses of ’Reinforced Type II Deep-Repair Bath’."
-8,000 Warband Reputation;
"Redeem ten vials of ’Reinforced Type II Mental Power Recovery Potion’."
-5,000 Warband Reputation;
After a rapid series of redemption commands, the 29,400 Warband Reputation he had just earned was instantly wiped out, leaving a paltry 400 points.
The very next second after he completed the redemptions...
VMMMM—
A soft light suddenly flared into existence within his Subspace Storage Unit.
An Alloy Long Spear, its entire body a lustrous, koi-like reddish-gold, hovered silently in place.
The spear’s shaft was covered in a fine, dragon-scale pattern, while the spearhead was forged into the shape of a ferocious dragon’s head with its maw wide open. Its two eyes, inlaid with some unknown type of Crystal Stone, seemed to hold a life of their own as they glinted with a terrifying cold light.
Next to the Long Spear were dozens of futuristic metal vials and sealed containers, all neatly arranged. They were filled with top-tier cultivation Potions that would drive any ordinary Martial Artist into a frenzy.
As for the Killing Techniques, they had been delivered as a data stream directly into Qin Feng’s Subspace Network; he only needed to watch the holographic videos to learn them.
Weapons, Killing Techniques, Potions...
Everything was ready.
* * *
Qin Feng didn’t immediately rush to start the next Warrior Level mission.
’One step at a time.’
Having just acquired a new weapon, new Killing Techniques, and a massive amount of cultivation resources, his current priority wasn’t to rush blindly into battle. It was to convert these external assets into tangible Combat Power as quickly as possible.
Especially the *Great Sun Qi Meridian Method*.
This Cultivation Technique was the only method for cultivating in the Fifth-level Meridian Union Realm.
