Swallowing the Stars: Starting with Optimizing the Five Hearts Towards the Sky

Chapter 558 Sorting Out the Harvest, Anchoring System Energy Units

The Cosmic Sea, a primordial miniature universe.

In the Origin Space, Chen Yuan opened his eyes, and with a thought, retrieved his gains from the Optimization Space.

The first chapter of "World Life Forms," ​​a special inheritance of the Great Dao of Life and Matter!

The Primordial Heart, which increases affinity with all Great Daos.

It assists in creating secret methods and analyzes the Great Dao diagram.

And the Tower of Destruction, a defensive treasure of the God Emperor level containing the killing intent of a God Emperor and the complete source of destruction.

Oh right, and there's also a Hunyuan Crystal as an extra bonus.

"Quite a harvest!"

Chen Yuan licked his lips. With the help of these treasures, he could greatly increase his efficiency in the future, whether it was cultivating the Great Dao, creating secret techniques, or tempering his will.

Of course, in addition to these top-tier treasures, he also collected a great many spiritual fruits and divine materials to aid his cultivation. If provided in unlimited quantities, these resources would be enough to support his cultivation to the ultimate God King realm.

Including techniques for crafting magical treasures.

With that in mind, he immediately began to allocate the whereabouts of these treasures.

First is the Heart of Chaos, worth 100081 reward points.

As soon as he took out the treasure, the entire primordial space trembled, generating an instinctive desire to devour this perfectly round crystal.

Yes, the Heart of Chaos not only has the power to tempt life, but even his universe desperately desires this treasure. This is not because his universe has developed consciousness, but because everything has an instinctive desire to devour it.

Not only the universe, but even every bit of Chen Yuan's own spirituality was urging him to absorb this treasure as soon as possible.

The only thing that remained unaffected was his honed willpower and mental fortitude.

"Tsk tsk, as expected of a treasure worth 100,000 reward points, it is indeed extraordinary."

No further proof is needed; the attraction generated by bodily instincts speaks for itself.

Without hesitation, Chen Yuan pressed the round crystal that was radiating dazzling light into his chest, letting the various spiritual entities within his body frantically vie for the primordial matter within it.

At the same time, his physical body became increasingly translucent, and his already "perfect" divine body evolved once again.

"The transformation of the body by the Heart of Chaos is gradual, so the speed will not be fast."

Through feedback from his physical body and spirituality, Chen Yuan learned that it would take his body approximately three thousand years to fully digest the Primordial Heart.

However, since the power of primordial chaos is of a higher rank than the Great Dao, it is also unaffected by time acceleration.

"It's alright, at least it's the time of the primordial universe. If it were the Origin Continent, it would be three thousand days."

He shook his head, letting his body slowly digest the power of the Primordial Heart, and then looked at his other gains.

This time, instead of choosing the expensive items, he picked up the least valuable one.

Hunyuan Crystal!

Faced with this treasure that also contained the power of Hunyuan, his primordial space trembled slightly, barely showing any reaction. As for his physical body and spirituality, they were busy absorbing better power and didn't care about the power of Hunyuan Crystal at all.

"It seems that these ordinary primordial energies are also beneficial to the development of the universe?"

"But let's not rush into testing it."

He shook his head. He wasn't exchanging for Hunyuan Crystals for cultivation; his main purpose was to anchor the value of the system's energy.

The current system uses a unit of energy called "Source of the Great Dao," which is equivalent in value to the Chaos Stones of the Origin Continent. In other words, one hundred million Sources of the Great Dao are equal to one grain of cosmic sand.

As Chen Yuan's strength increased, his energy reserves also rose rapidly.

During this period, he would occasionally send his clones to the Flamewind Guild and Thunder Merchant Guild to sell various rare materials, and then convert the sold cosmic sand back into energy reserves to earn the price difference.

Because the treasures sold each time are different, the profit margin varies each time, but it generally stays in the range of 5 to 10 times.

Over the past ten days or so, Chen Yuan's accumulated energy reserves have become astronomical, exceeding trillions even when converted into cosmic sand.

It is foreseeable that his energy reserves will continue to expand rapidly in the future. Even if they are limited by the reserves of the two major chambers of commerce and cannot increase exponentially as before, the value of mere cosmic sand will certainly not be able to measure his true reserves.

Therefore, finding a new anchor for the system's energy is an urgent matter, and Hunyuan Crystal is the most suitable item for this purpose.

As the most mainstream currency outside the cage, and also the highest currency in the endless Hunyuan space, Hunyuan Crystal is extremely valuable. Even God Emperors at the peak of their power still use it, making it the perfect material to anchor the value of system energy.

"And I'm also very curious about the exchange ratio between Chaos Origin Crystals and Cosmic Sand."

Chen Yuan asked quietly, "Is it based on the merit-based exchange ratio, with one Chaos Origin Crystal worth three hundred billion cosmic sands, or is it based on some other ratio?"

The result is obvious.

After refining the Hunyuan Crystal, he quickly calculated its true value by observing the increasing numbers in the system's reserves.

"One hundred billion!" Chen Yuan said with absolute certainty, "The energy difference between cosmic sand and primordial crystal is one hundred billion times!"

He finally understood the value of the Hunyuan Crystal and also realized how much water was mixed in with the merit system of the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom.

It's not hard to understand; when the quantity of currency reaches a certain level, its value will inevitably decrease.

Even though the cosmic sand contains chaotic energy, which would prevent its value from falling too drastically, in the eyes of the higher-ups on the Origin Continent, this low-level energy has little value left.

The truly valuable things are the various resources and treasures that have been greatly reduced in production due to the end of the world.

Therefore, the exchange system established by the two ancient kingdoms prohibits the direct exchange of cosmic sand for treasures; instead, one must contribute value to the ancient kingdom.

During this period, the value of merit and the exchanged goods will inevitably become unbalanced, and a premium is quite normal.

"Fortunately, I didn't convert it into the value of my contributions."

Chen Yuan shook his head slightly, "Otherwise, although it may be easy for a while, once I'm outside the cage, my flawed value judgment will definitely cause me a great loss."

Misjudging the value of the Hunyuan Crystal would very likely lead him to make a wrong transaction, and the losses would be huge, since the outside world is not as small-scale as the Origin Continent.

With this in mind, Chen Yuan had a sudden inspiration and gave the system energy a new unit of measurement: the Hunyuan Unit.

Well, it's actually just a plagiarized version of the Primal Universe's Chaos Unit; he just couldn't be bothered to think about it anymore.

The value of one Hunyuan unit is equivalent to that of one Hunyuan crystal, which is self-evident.

After updating the units of measurement, the energy reserves section on the panel will change to:

[Energy Reserve: 14.7 Hunyuan Units]

This is equivalent to 14700 trillion cosmic sands and 14700 trillion trillion sources of the Great Dao. This is the result of his buying and selling resources over the years.
