Global Era of Star trekking Chapter 1742 - 850: Transaction Results and the Mythical Poisonous Flood Dragon

"A single Golden Rule Fragment isn't nearly enough to secure the Star Core’s Tear..."

Yue Feng clearly valued the Golden Rule Fragment more than the Titan Ancestor Blood offered earlier by the Ninth Rank Titan. As a Ninth Rank Dominator hailing from the Star Moon Universe Civilization, Yue Feng's primary Cultivation paths were originally focused on metal and light. However, upon reaching the Dominator Rank and gaining a vast lifespan, he expanded his research to include various standard laws like earth, fire, and force.

He only avoided the supreme Starry Sea laws of space and time because he lacked the innate talent required to master them. Despite his dedication to these secondary paths, his mastery over them was still significantly inferior to his initial insights and the two Law Amplitudes he possessed in metal and light laws.

Song Chi observed this with total clarity; even though Yue Feng suppressed every ounce of his Power of Laws, he could not hide the truth from Song Chi’s perception.

"Oh?" Song Chi remarked. "But doesn't this Golden Rule Fragment suit your requirements better than that drop of Titan Ancestor Blood?"

The starlight surrounding Yue Feng pulsed unevenly at those words. The realization that his secrets were being exposed made it difficult for him to maintain his composure.

"You—" He started to speak, but he suddenly cut himself off and shifted his tone. "Since you can see through my situation, you must realize that a Light Rule Fragment is what I truly desire. If you can provide one, I will agree to the deal."

Song Chi shook his head, refusing the proposal without hesitation. This Golden Rule Fragment had been looted from Origin Star by an Extreme Ninth Rank Black Wizard of the Wizard Civilization. Even on Origin Star, such fragments were rare. Searching for a specific Light Rule Fragment would be an immense struggle, and he had no intention of undertaking such a task.

However, he had already planned for this. The Ninth Rank Titan of the Overlord Tribe had previously offered a Seven-Colored Strange Object, which was worth more than the Star Core’s Tear. Attempting to trade with only a Golden Rule Fragment was never going to be successful.

"What if I include these two objects?" Song Chi asked. As he spoke, two more items manifested in his palm: a [Ruins Market Walking Rank] and a [Seventh Rank Time Realm Fruit].

As expected, Yue Feng’s eyes lit up with intense brilliance the moment he saw these new offerings. Song Chi let out a silent, internal laugh; he had clearly struck a nerve, and Yue Feng was now on the verge of giving in.

In the current era of "Origin Star’s Fall," the majority of Ruins Market Tokens are controlled by the Titan, Wizard, and Torch civilizations. The few remaining are held by veteran patrons like the Ancient Dwarfs, the Half-Rodent People of the Divine Domain Continent, the Deep Sea Nagas, and the Dark Night Elves. These groups recognize the immense utility of the Wizard Tokens and refuse to part with them. Yue Feng had previously made numerous attempts to buy a token from these clients or petition the Ruins Market Lord, but he was always turned down. Consequently, the [Ruins Market Walking Rank] Song Chi offered was a massive temptation.

Furthermore, the [Seventh Rank Time Realm Fruit] was equally alluring. For a Ninth Rank Dominator who dabbled in various laws, a Spirit Fruit that could instantly elevate Time Law comprehension to 40% was incredibly valuable.

Yue Feng’s eyes darted between the [Ruins Market Walking Rank] and the [Seventh Rank Time Realm Fruit] as he struggled with his decision. Song Chi remained silent, putting no pressure on him. He understood that any resource capable of increasing the success rate of a myth achievement by 20% was priceless to a Ninth Rank Dominator—even if Yue Feng likely had more than one Star Core’s Tear in his possession. Simultaneously, Song Chi was confident that his offer was too good to refuse.

Eventually, Yue Feng broke the silence with a heavy voice. "The [Ruins Market Walking Rank] and [Seventh Rank Time Realm Fruit] are indeed valuable to me, but this is still not enough for a Star Core’s Tear."

Song Chi’s eyebrows twitched, his previous calm fading as his expression darkened. His eyes shifted as he scanned his thoughts, finally settling on one last item.

"How about adding this to the pile?" Before he finished speaking, a stone the size of a palm appeared. Its surface was translucent, with chaotic gases swirling deep within it.

Yue Feng recognized it immediately. "An Intermediate Chaos Mirror Image Stone!"

As a member of the Star Moon Universe Civilization—a premier High-Level Starry Sea Civilization—he was well-acquainted with items like the [Chaos Mirror Image Stone], especially since they had built a unique chaos city within the Chaos Divine Land. This time, he didn't stall. He knew Song Chi had reached his limit. If he pushed any further, the deal would collapse.

He stared at the [Intermediate Chaos Mirror Image Stone], the starlight in his eyes flickering as he calculated the benefits. After a long moment, Yue Feng gave a slow, solemn nod. "Very well. I accept the trade."

With those words, starlight condensed in his hand, and a clear, tear-shaped crystal manifested. It looked as though a miniature Star River was swirling inside it, glowing with a profound light. It was the [Star Core’s Tear]!

Song Chi’s eyes flashed as he reached out to claim it. The instant his skin touched the crystal, a massive wave of Power of Stars flooded his senses, causing his heart to race with excitement.
