These are probably all the materials in the Chi Gu Family's resource library that meet Lin Chuan's requirements.
As for others, there might be some, but they are mostly private collections of certain individuals and cannot be acquired through contribution points.
After careful consideration, Lin Chuan finally decided to exchange for them.
One pair of Flash Wing Dragon Pattern Butterfly Wings, 300 contribution points.
Ten pairs of Phantom Hidden Lizard Eyes, 100 contribution points.
As for the remaining 100 contribution points,
Lin Chuan asked Qian Gu Lidai if he could exchange them for some scraps of Phantom Winged Beast materials, such as a drop of blood crystal, a tuft of fur, or a piece of nail scale.
Logically speaking, this was not allowed.
It wasn't that 100 points was insufficient for exchange.
For ordinary scraps, a few hairs, or a nail-sized scale, 100 contribution points would be enough.
The key was that Phantom Winged Beast, a Wang (King)-Rank mid-level demon's material, required a very strict internal review process to exchange.
Normally, Chi Gu Family members who wanted to exchange for related resources needed to write a paper application, clearly stating what the materials would be used for and their relevant purposes in the application, and only with the approval of a family elder could they exchange for them.
Lin Chuan was not a member of the Chi Gu Family, so it was impossible for him to write an application, let alone truthfully explain the purpose, which would be very troublesome.
Qian Gu Lidai had no choice but to call Qian Gu Zhengxiong for instructions.
Qian Gu Zhengxiong was also a bit hesitant about this matter; it wasn't a huge deal, but it wasn't small either. After all, what Lin Chuan wanted wasn't crucial materials like a heart, but just some scraps. However, these were still valuable materials from a Phantom Winged Beast, and if other elders in the family used this to criticize him, he would be very uncomfortable.
“Little friend Lin Chuan, are you determined to obtain the Phantom Winged Beast materials?”
He let Lin Chuan take the call, and on the phone, Qian Gu Zhengxiong asked seriously.
“Not determined, but if possible, I still want them.”
Lin Chuan replied.
Qian Gu Zhengxiong pondered for a while.
If Lin Chuan were just an ordinary Beast Master, Qian Gu Zhengxiong would definitely have refused.
However, the abilities Lin Chuan displayed during his previous battle with Qian Gu Shu were truly promising, with limitless potential. While it was hard to say if he would become a Heavenly King or quasi-Heavenly King, a professional elite was certain.
Given Lin Chuan's background as an innocent commoner, he was highly likely to become a high-ranking official in the Star Rock Federation in the future, making him worth investing in and befriending early.
“Little friend Lin Chuan, do you have anything new and interesting there? Some books from the Star Rock Federation would also be fine.”
Qian Gu Zhengxiong hinted.
Exchanging with contribution points required going through the Chi Gu Family's internal exchange channels, which would be very troublesome.
But if it was a private transaction, it would be much simpler.
However, private transactions also required proper methods and a justifiable reason, such as reciprocating a favor.
Lin Chuan immediately understood the hint.
He didn't have anything new.
But he did have quite a few books from the Star Rock Federation.
“Senior, I have a law book here that was just newly released this year by the Star Rock Federation.”
“Oh, oh, oh, I like that! Laws are good. Good laws and regulations are the guarantee of social stability and development.”
From the other end of the phone came Qian Gu Zhengxiong's eager and happy voice.
And so, Lin Chuan and Qian Gu Zhengxiong reached a deal.
Half an hour later,
Qian Gu Zhengxiong looked at the book on the table, “Human and Spirit Beast Marriage Law,” and fell into contemplation, always feeling that something was amiss.
100 packs of fantasy mushroom.
10 pairs of Phantom Hidden Lizard Eyes.
1 pair of Flash Wing Dragon Pattern Butterfly Wings.
1 drop of Phantom Winged Beast blood crystal.
These were all the materials Lin Chuan exchanged for.
To retrieve the materials, there was also an inventory registration, signature authentication, and so on.
Lin Chuan wouldn't accompany them through these tedious procedures; Qian Gu Lidai would handle them on his behalf.
Lin Chuan left the Thousand Valley Secret Realm and returned to his five-star hotel room.
As evening approached,
Qian Gu Lidai personally delivered all the materials Lin Chuan had exchanged for.
Upon receiving the materials, Lin Chuan eagerly began to inspect them.
High-grade spirit beast materials, especially those from critical parts,
Usually carry inherited skill experience memory fragments, but there's also a small chance they don't contain memory fragments, which is purely based on luck.
Before opening the blind boxes, Lin Chuan had Wan Wan give him a luck buff.
Ultimately, Lin Chuan's blind box results:
Among the 10 pairs of Phantom Hidden Lizard Eyes, 6 pairs possessed memory fragments and could be used as inheritance and reincarnation auxiliary materials, while the other 4 pairs did not and were merely ordinary consumables.
Three of them had the Illusion Eye skill inheritance.
The other 3 pairs had Clairvoyance.
Clairvoyance.
An Illusion Attribute, reconnaissance-type skill.
Its effect is to see through objects blocked by obstacles. Whether it can see through depends on the skill's proficiency and the nature of the obstruction.
For example, if blocked by a thin ordinary wooden board, even an entry-level Clairvoyance can see through it.
But if blocked by a stone, it would require ordinary-level Clairvoyance to see through.
And if the obstruction is something with extraordinary energy,
Then, to successfully use Clairvoyance, a higher skill proficiency is required, and the spirit beast's own level must also be sufficiently high.
Clairvoyance and Illusion Eye, plus the buff skill Mental Focus.
Theoretically, these three skills can form a Combination Skill, Eye of Disillusionment, whose effect is to see through illusions. However, in practice, it also depends on the spirit beast's comprehension and special training methods. This will be discussed later, as the next research project for Sakura.
Flash Wing Dragon Pattern Butterfly Wings.
As a core critical material from a commander-rank high-level demon, it has a very high probability of possessing inherited skills.
Lin Chuan was not 'unlucky' to win the lottery; instead, he was very fortunate.
The pair of Flash Wing Dragon Pattern Butterfly Wings he exchanged for contained a large number of memory fragments and could be used as reincarnation material.
Fortunately, the memory fragments contained within were also a very rare and powerful skill among basic Wind Attribute skills, even more powerful than ordinary Combination Skills: Raging Wind Turbulence!
Raging Wind Turbulence, an environmental field skill, its effect is to turn the surrounding area into a storm environment.
Any non-Wind Attribute spirit beast or demon in the storm environment will suffer continuous damage.
Some small-bodied, light-mass spirit beasts and demons might even be unable to stand firm in such a stormy field, being swept up into the sky by the strong winds, continuously taking a large amount of damage. If some small spells like Stone Throw, Fireball, or Ice Cone were added, the damage effect would be even more terrifying.
Finally, and most crucially,
That drop of Phantom Winged Beast blood crystal.
It was like the sci-fi briefcase used in movies to preserve valuable items.
Lin Chuan entered the password he received from Qian Gu Lidai and opened the briefcase.
Inside was a deep red, small bead, similar to a glass marble.
Holding it in his hand, Lin Chuan closed his eyes and used his Reincarnation talent to perceive it. Black and white invisible energy slowly enveloped and touched the blood crystal.
Suddenly, Lin Chuan saw many memory fragments.
A forest filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, bathed in soft light, like a fairyland.
A demon with a dragon's head and a horse's body stood on a high slope, watching a group of various demons chasing and playing in the open space ahead.
Among these chasing and frolicking demons, Lin Chuan saw Little Tail's figure, very active. Little Tail would sometimes play with another cat-like spirit beast, and at other times, he would be like a silly roe deer, bouncing back and forth.
The scene flashed by.
It then turned into the Phantom Winged Beast's life memories of shuttling and running through the forest, and flying with its light wings in the sky.
Silence, regret, but also relief.
The silence was because the memory scene Lin Chuan saw confirmed his guess: this Phantom Winged Beast was indeed Little Tail's relative, perhaps an older brother or sister.
The regret was that this drop of blood crystal did not contain any skills.
The relief was that it had memory fragments, meaning it could be used as reincarnation material.
Currently, Lin Chuan's Beast Master talent, Reincarnation, has reached Tier 2, allowing him to invest 2 auxiliary materials during reincarnation.
The Flash Wing Dragon Pattern Butterfly Wings, plus this drop of Phantom Winged Beast blood crystal.
These were the reincarnation materials Lin Chuan prepared for White Snow.
Now, he just had to wait for White Snow to awaken from her slumber and reach Tier 2.
...
One month later.
Mist Forest, Light Realm.
The Light Realm, originally filled with ghosts, darkness, and Demon Attribute, like a terrifying forest, was now full of the aura of light.
Soft, warm light illuminated the entire secret realm.
The skeletons of demons and humans slowly melted away like snow under the warm, gentle light.
Crouching beside the lake in the middle of the Light Realm, the Light Unicorn gazed at the lake.
The once black and turbid lake was now clear and transparent.
The terrifying dark shadows and the huge dragon shadow Lin Chuan had once seen were also gone.
Katori Chion, a 20-year-old woman in a white dress and a frilly straw hat, as if on a spring outing, silently appeared beside him.
“It's been a long time since I've seen a scene like this.”
Katori Chion spoke, her voice filled with emotion and nostalgia.
On the other side, the 6-year-old female imp Katori Chion and the 4-year-old doll Katori Chion were chasing and playing in the open space nearby, having a great time.
The Light Unicorn gazed at the two little ones playing, its calm eyes rippling slightly.
Once upon a time, its offspring also chased and played like this.
Its 118th son, born from it and a small, lovely White Winged Dragon, named Senchu Ryoma, had the most hope of returning to its ancestral form and evolving into a new generation of Light Unicorn. It was here that he cared for his younger siblings.
Unfortunately, everything was but a fleeting memory.
“Then you should take a good look, this kind of scenery might be the last time it appears in Dongyang.”
The Light Unicorn's calm voice resounded.
Katori Chion nodded slightly, even taking out her camera and filming as if no one else was around.
While filming, Katori Chion asked,
“How long can you maintain this state?”
“The last 2 years of life force are all concentrated and consumed in advance. If I don't fight, I can last at least 3 months. If I fight in my peak state, a maximum of 2 hours.”
“Two hours.”
Katori Chion murmured, her voice somewhat complex.
Her black, pupil-less eyes gazed at the Light Unicorn, her gaze filled with emotion.
A legendary holy spirit, yet it had come to this day.
“What about you? How are your preparations?”
“Everything is ready.”
...
This day,
Lin Chuan was very happy because Guo Guo had reached Tier 2.
At the same time, White Snow also awakened from her slumber, reaching Level 19.
Also on this day,
Deep within the Mist Forest, an anomaly quietly occurred.
The mist spread outwards, tinged with a faint black.
The sky was gloomy, filled with oppression.
A drizzling black rain began to fall.
