Chapter 728: Chapter 324: Millions of Contribution Points, Instructions Before Departure (Seeking Monthly Pass)_2
Uh… you, my friend, always manage to fit in wherever you go.” Jack Clark glanced at Justin Welan, then a smile spread across his face, “I’ve seen General Bland.”
Sheehan Bland laughed heartily, “Student Clark, no need to be so formal. Earlier, when you had your breakthrough, Marcellus Larry sent me a message, inviting you to visit Base No.1. He said that the item you requested is ready.”
“Ready?” Jack’s eyes suddenly lit up.
Clearly, his Life Crystal had arrived.
“Everyone, I’m heading off to Base No.1 for a bit.”
After saying goodbye to everyone, Jack’s figure flashed and he instantly vanished from the spot. As soon as he left the Frontline Small Town, a sonic boom roared.
Compared to the silent and transcendent movement, Jack preferred this overbearing feeling of charging through the air, shattering everything in his path.
Soon, Jack arrived outside Base No.1 and from afar, he could see the huge Silver Vortex rising a kilometer high, sending out invisible ripples.
Within Jack’s slowly emerging golden vertical pupils, intense Spatial Fluctuations filled the area for tens of kilometers around the entire pathway.
In contrast to the seabed pathway controlled by the Base Dragon Giant Beast Empire, the Eastern Summer’s pathway was larger, more stable, and had a greater carrying capacity.
During the days of his Closed-door Cultivation, nothing unusual had happened beneath the sea.
It seemed that the Black Oblivion King, that Mythical Giant Beast, still hadn’t noticed the changes here.
But that was to be expected. These Mythical Giant Beasts once in Hibernation could sleep for several months, half a year, or even a decade at a time. To them, the concept of time was very slow.
And that was the norm.
Because for these beasts, hibernation was cultivation.
As their size increased, the consumption of an Extraordinary Creature like a Giant Beast during its regular activities was also quite exaggerated, requiring a substantial amount of biological energy.
And this energy came from the Heavenly Energy they absorbed.
Therefore, reducing activities could lower daily consumption, effectively enhancing their cultivation growth rate.
As for the hunting and devouring of other Giant Beasts, significant improvements generally came from hunting those of the same rank due to the difference in quality and quantity.
After transcending to level eight as an Extraordinary Creature, with each level raised, the disparity in the body size of the beasts became several to more than a dozen times larger, and the energy contained in their flesh and blood was even more disparate.
Thus, an Eighth Level Beast devouring a Level 7 Colossus wouldn’t see a significant improvement unless it was continuously devouring in large quantities.
As for hunting and Devouring peers, very few beasts did this.
Because no beast could ensure a guaranteed win against the other. Without fighting, no beast would know how strong the other’s talent was, and what if it got killed and devoured in the fight instead?
Therefore, after reaching level nine, the beasts would only fight if there was a visible benefit. Otherwise, even if there was a conflict, it’d usually just involve a show of dominance and then stop it there.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
They’d rather spend the time sleeping than fighting, absorbing more Heavenly Energy to increase their strength.
As for the Thunderflame Emperor Dragon that hunted peers as if they were nothing and dared to attack those a Major Realm higher, such a monster had only appeared once in many years in the sea.
However, after reaching level nine, the growth of the Thunderflame Emperor Dragon had also slowed down.
The immense physique, tens of times stronger than its peers, gave it the power to Suppress beasts of the same rank, and with several Top Tier Talents, it became invincible within its rank.
But due to its overwhelmingly powerful body, every meter of growth consumed a massive amount of energy.
This explained why, after hunting several early-stage Level 9 Beasts and heading to the North Ice Sea Area to devour a large number of Level 7 and 8 beasts, and three Early-stage Level 9 Beasts, it only managed to break through to Mid Level 9.
In such circumstances, there wasn’t enough energy to maintain rapid body growth, let alone accumulating Evolution value.
And as it progressed from Mid Level 9 to the late period and then to Level 9 Peak, its needs became even greater; it felt like it might need to devour a Mythical Giant Beast to achieve that.
For example… the Black Oblivion King.
Musing, Jack passed through several security checks and quickly arrived at the central Office Building of the base.
Indeed, the center of Base No.1 was a hundred-meter-tall Office Building, and Marcellus Larry’s office was on the top of the thirty-third floor.
Strange, why do they all like thirty-three floors?
Intrigued, Jack passed two more Identity Verification processes before taking the elevator up to the top floor, which opened directly into a spacious office.
At that moment, Marcellus Larry was sitting behind a large desk, looking down at a document in his hand.
Marcellus Larry looked up and, upon seeing Jack enter, smiled and said, “Jack, you’ve arrived at the perfect time. Take a look at this, it’s the resource allocation list for your upcoming cultivation.”
As he spoke, Marcellus Larry pushed the document and a Space Bracelet across the table, adding, “Our Human Race has always placed great emphasis on nurturing the new generation, especially those with outstanding talents, who receive even more resource allocation.”
“The reason is simple: only geniuses can turn those resources into strength in a short amount of time and achieve the greatest effect.”
“As for those with average talents, even if they obtained the same resources, they could only absorb them slowly, achieving only two or three tenths of the effect.”
“As the most talented of the new generation, you will not be an exception here. These resources should be enough for your cultivation up to the Nine-layer Late Period.”
Marcellus Larry knew that Jack’s talent was average at first, barely achieving Foundation Establishment after half a month. Therefore, in the beginning, he only practiced low-level Cultivation Methods, and his resources couldn’t compare to those of other geniuses of the same period.
Telling him this now was to prevent any lingering resentment or dissatisfaction in his mind from those days.
Jack also picked up on the implication of his words and replied with a smile, “I understand what you’re saying, king. With the Federation’s limited resources right now, it’s impossible to take care of everyone.”
