Floating Island - Triple S Talent-Chapter 545: Duplikasi, God Essence - High Tier

[Void Chest]

An ancient container artifact forged from the core of a collapsed star. The Void Chest stores the purest Law Seeds without risk of contamination or decay. Its interior is a pseudo-infinite space perfectly isolated from all dimensional fluctuations.

Type: Spirit Artifact

Grade: 5-Star

Essence Capacity: 13,000,000

Abilities: (Seed Preservation), (Soul Resonance), (Dimensional Isolation)

Lein gazed at the artifact's attributes with a satisfied expression. To him, the Void Chest's value wasn't just in its ability to store Law Seeds. Its dimensional isolation capability was extraordinary—an invaluable asset in scenarios requiring stabilized space or protection for rare artifacts.

"I'll buy them. Please prepare everything," Lein said calmly. His voice was light yet firm, as if the decision had been made long before he even finished speaking. "I'll take a look at the other items," he added, glancing at the other goods neatly displayed on the long table.

The old man beamed, satisfaction clear on his face. Selling two high-grade artifacts in a single day was a massive achievement—something that rarely happened even in an entire month. He knew that after today, his life would change drastically. A promotion within the Nova Consortium seemed almost within reach.

However, the old man failed to notice one crucial thing: Lein was deliberately stalling. He was patiently waiting for the cooldown of his duplication ability to end, preparing for the next step with unwavering focus.

Time passed slowly. Fifteen minutes later, Lein finally approached the old man again. "I'd like to exchange one million regular God Essence for high-tier God Essence," he said casually.

Once the transaction was completed, Lein's internal system immediately triggered a notification.

[Initiating duplication (God Essence - High Tier) x1,500,000. Confirm? Y/N]

"Yes," Lein answered silently without hesitation.

Without a sound or any visible signs detectable to anyone in the universe, over a million units of high-tier God Essence materialized directly into Lein's private spatial ring. No one, not even the old man, realized the explosion of wealth that had just taken place right before their eyes.

Yet Lein wasn't in a hurry to spend his newfound fortune. Together with Efan, he continued browsing the room, inspecting every artifact available. He sought artifacts that weren't just immediately useful, but also valuable bargaining chips for future deals. With this strategy, Lein wasn't just strengthening himself—he was expanding his wealth to near-infinite levels.

More than an hour passed. After a strict selection process, Lein successfully purchased over a hundred artifacts. Seven of them were 5-star Spirit Artifacts—rare treasures that were hard to come by even in the Dominion's markets.

Standing at the cashier counter, Lein and Efan waited quietly as the old man carefully checked each artifact, removing the shop's authenticity seals one by one.

"The total is 187,000 units of high-tier God Essence, Young Master Lein," the old man said respectfully after finishing his calculations. His eyes gleamed with hopeful anticipation.

Lein didn't even blink upon hearing the amount. With a casual yet decisive gesture, he pulled out a pitch-black pouch from his spatial ring. It looked plain, but its contents were anything but ordinary—200,000 units of high-tier God Essence, far more than the price he needed to pay.

"Keep the change," Lein said nonchalantly, his voice making it sound as if he was giving away a mere coin. At the same time, he calmly retrieved the spatial ring now filled with hundreds of Spirit Artifacts, as if the magnitude of the transaction didn't weigh on his mind at all.

The old man opened the black pouch with trembling hands. When he saw the amount inside, his eyes widened in disbelief. His breath caught in his throat, and his face turned blank in shock. He looked at Lein with an expression that was half confusion, half fear. "Sir, are you... are you sure? This is too much," he said hoarsely, nearly stammering.

Lein merely cast him a brief glance and nodded slightly. "Accept it. Today is your lucky day," he said simply, then turned around with Efan and began walking toward the exit without further conversation.

However, just as they were about to reach the door, the old man called out from behind, half-shouting, "Sir, wait!"

Lein and Efan halted. They turned around to see the old man jogging toward them, slightly out of breath. With deep respect, he bowed and extended a platinum token with both hands.

"Please accept our Caravan Token, sir. From today onward, you are our honored guest," he said sincerely, his voice filled with gratitude.

Lein stared at the token for a moment before offering a faint smile. He accepted the token without much ceremony and tucked it away into his spatial ring. "Thank you," he said briefly, before turning once again and leaving the shop alongside Efan.

Outside, their plans were already set. Together with Efan, Lein intended to visit several other places to purchase essential items for the construction of the Divine Sky Realm—a massive project that would require countless resources and special artifacts.

A sleek white robot, designed with smooth mechanical motions, awaited them at the exit. As Lein approached, the robot activated, projecting a holographic map and offering the fastest routes to various key locations. With mechanical efficiency, the robot guided them through the trading district, pointing out stores and auction houses that housed rare items which might be useful to Lein.

Their journey continued well into the afternoon. Lein and Efan visited numerous markets, auction halls, and specialty shops, evaluating each item with the scrutiny of a general inspecting his arsenal before a major battle. They didn't just collect Spirit Artifacts—they also acquired Manifestation Lands, special zones where world laws could be condensed to accelerate cultivation.

By the time the sun dipped behind the towering city spires, Lein and Efan finally concluded their long journey and returned to Invictus Sect.

All preparations were now complete—especially for Lein's breakthrough to the King Realm. He had secured seven additional Law Seeds along with several dozen square kilometers of Manifestation Zones.

With this foundation, he could advance to King Stage 9 without encountering any significant obstacles—it was only a matter of time, perseverance, and a bit of patience to see everything through.
