Even so, as long as the incarnation of Dawn appears, many fifth-tier apostles still grit their teeth and buy it despite the pain, and even take off their equipment to pay for it.
This is......
Li Xia quickly understood the crux of the problem.
Because of its own reasons, the guild is no longer able to mass-produce avatars in the world of Extinction, nor can it produce the Dawn needed for avatars.
What's being sold now is likely inventory, so there will naturally be a premium.
The purpose of an incarnation is to enter the world of oblivion to complete preliminary tasks and then undergo trials.
The highest difficulty level in the original trials is obviously very difficult to complete, but there is also a normal difficulty level.
According to Li Xia's estimate, it's probably only about 70% to 80% of the original body. A powerful apostle should still have a chance to complete it.
There is still hope for the apostles at the upper level of the fifth rank to complete this task.
In the halls of power, the biggest mistake is to look only at the panel data.
In reality, an apostle who can unleash 80% of his power is already considered extremely powerful.
To perform at 90% is to be a top-tier apostle; to perform at 100% or even beyond the limit, aside from a sudden power surge, is to be like Li Xia.
Therefore, achieving 70-80% of the original body is quite difficult, but there is hope.
And the light seems to be reviving, and is vying for control with those agents.
Some people with photosensitive eyes can do things when their attention isn't focused on them, but they can't do them now.
In the long run, this is a good thing. Virtual avatars are harmful in every way and have no benefits whatsoever.
The true incarnation is the path an apostle should normally take.
The three little ones wandered around for a while, then realized that Li Xia hadn't followed, so they led the other two back.
Aowu deftly slipped on a pair of sunglasses and said smugly, "Boss, there's nothing much to see outside. Let's go, there's a VIP area inside."
There's a VIP area? Li Xia withdrew his gaze; there really wasn't much to see outside. The only redeeming qualities were the wide variety and low prices.
He followed Aowu into the black market and saw a rather exquisite door, as if afraid that others would not notice it.
There were two other people standing at the door. When they saw Aowu from afar, smiles appeared on their faces.
"Master Long, you're here again! And this is—"
On ordinary days, Aowu had brought people here before. It had a high status in this black market, so it was naturally allowed to bring people in.
Sometimes Awoo drinks at the Bull and Horse Club and gets to know their owners through these summoned creatures.
If these apostles have any needs, Awoo wouldn't mind helping them with a small favor or two.
It has plenty of money and good products, so it can get along well anywhere.
'Loyal and Righteous Master Long'
It's not just him bragging; Grandpa Long truly has the power to command a large following within the hall, especially among low- to mid-level casual disciples and their small teams.
That's why Aowu is able to collect a lot of information. Whether it's useful or not, he collects it first, just in case it comes in handy someday.
Xiao Long did a lot of work behind the scenes, and he never mentioned it to Li Xia. Li Xia only found out today that Ao Wu had been quietly doing a lot of work behind the scenes.
He let out a snort: "This is my boss, he wants to come and see him today too!"
"Oh, it's Third Master."
Their eyes lit up immediately.
Who exactly is Awoo's owner? This is something that black market dealers have always been very curious about.
Li Xia rarely shows his face, and even when hinted at indirectly, he keeps his mouth shut, at most using "three" as a substitute, refusing to reveal anything else.
The key point is that this little dragon has a lot of good stuff, the quality of which is exceptionally high, and he is very generous with his money.
They are very extravagant when it comes to buying things, only looking for high-quality items, and even when buying materials, they buy them in large quantities.
Although they cannot directly sell items to lower-level players, they do exchange information with them.
Aowu had always been like this in the earlier stages, and was quite famous within the black market.
According to their previous calculations, to achieve the level of purchase volume and shipments of Aowu, there must be an elite team behind it.
The number of people may not be large, probably around 20, and their ratings will be at least A+ or S.
Looking at it today, they seem a bit unsure.
In fact, Li Xia is quite famous; on the contrary, his fame is quite widespread, but it only exists within a very small circle.
For example, those guilds that hate him to the core, and even the agents know of his existence.
The only problem is that the acting guild can't touch him because of the temple's restrictions, and the guilds of the same rank can't touch him either. They've tried a few times and died horribly, so they don't dare to make a move.
How could they possibly spread Li Xia's fame?
Of course, black market dealers can't be traced.
The door swung open with a bang, and two people gestured: "Please."
Li Xia stepped inside and found that it was a small room with several stunningly beautiful female employees waiting there.
Upon seeing him arrive, they greeted him with a smile and presented him with a robe and a box.
He took the robe, opened the box, and found a very simple mask inside.
He draped the robe over his shoulders and slipped the mask on. He didn't know what the mask was made of; it was incredibly lightweight, and it adhered to his face without him even noticing.
The little dragon's robe was clearly specially made. It was tucked inside the dragon egg and floating in mid-air. Once the robe was on, it looked just like No-Face from Spirited Away.
After they had all put on their robes, the beautiful women led them to the other side.
Open the small door of the castle, and a dark passageway unfolds within.
Aowu whispered, "Actually, it's just a gimmick. It looks mysterious, but there's not much good stuff in it."
The apostles of the Temple of Light are incompetent.
As Li Xia reached the end of the dimly lit corridor, her eyes gradually brightened as she looked at the scene before her.
In the dark alleyways, in the Victorian style, old buildings...
The uneven brick road was filled with weeds crushed by car wheels, and the sky was unusually dark, with a thin mist like a veil.
The streets flowed by, and in the narrow alleyways sat figures wrapped in robes, huddled in the shadows, with a cloth spread out in front of them.
Various kinds of goods were displayed on the shelves, and some people walked silently in the alley, barely speaking even when buying and selling things.
Yes, yes, that's exactly the feeling!
Aowu, still familiar with the way, led the way, and Li Xia carefully examined the surrounding stalls.
In terms of quality, it is indeed a level above others, but as Aowu said, overall it is still the same and not particularly amazing.
Although there were slightly more gold-tier equipment, he only glanced at them a few times before realizing that these were all items that only had a certain rank, and basically all of them had one or two very powerful debuffs.
Overall, it's stronger than orange-tier gear, but still weaker than regular gold-tier gear.
"Boss, I've already contacted him over here."
Awoo led them to a stall.
The person remained inside, making no response even when someone came.
Li Xia squatted down, bent over, and scanned his stall, but didn't find anything she wanted.
Just as I was about to ask Xiaolong if there were any code words or gestures, Aowu said in a carefree manner, "I'm here, where's the stuff?"
The man woke up as if he'd been electrocuted, ripped the cloth off his head, stood up, and greeted them warmly, "Come in, come in."
Li Xia: .........
He turned and walked towards the small building on the second floor behind him, and pushed open the door.
"I was busy contacting business people and sending messages, so I didn't notice you guys had arrived. Sorry."
The interior decoration of the small building is completely different from the exterior, and it is quite exquisite and comfortable.
This is clearly both his business premises and his residence.
Li Xia hadn't really thought about where the employees would live.
It seems that people live in different places depending on their industry.
Just like Madaro, who usually resides in the small courtyard of his forging area.
He poured a cup of tea for everyone before sitting down and saying with a smile, "We've got something in mind for what you wanted, but the price they're asking is very high."
Aowu frowned: "How tall?"
Black Sands said apologetically, "The offer will be at least 50% higher than what you originally expected."
Aowu was stunned for a moment, then slammed his hand on the table: "Are you kidding me? It's just an entrance ticket to a world, we've done that before, isn't this price a bit outrageous?"
As soon as he said that, Li Xia immediately knew what Aowu wanted to do this time.
Madaro had told him before that there was a world with very rare minerals, which were both energy minerals and rare minerals, and that they would be beneficial to Asgard. The little tiger might also like them.
The importance of the Five Elements Origin is growing stronger. Besides providing high-level materials, the Origin Essence it provides is equally important, even at its maximum level.
For example, the method that Li Xia mastered after two or three years of hard work in the previous cycle—"using emotions to stimulate liver wood and clear qi, which then transforms into fire"—can also be used in attacks.
The terrifying punch he delivered in the Black Beast World that shattered the mental barrier was a result of channeling the essence of wood into his fist, transforming it into a fire fist with formidable power.
However, this will also deplete the gauge that Li Xia has already accumulated; for example, the punch from the Wood Origin destroyed a bit of it.
Therefore, in addition to providing himself with bonuses, these five elements also become a resource for him, a resource consumed when unleashing his ultimate move.
"Master Long, listen to me first." The black marketeer waved his hand. "As you know, in worlds like this, the entrance tickets are controlled by the guilds. How can ordinary people get in?"
Moreover, this world is different from the others. Other reward worlds at least have some danger, but in this world, it's easy to go in and take out some ores.
As long as you don't mess around or do anything wrong, it's a job with lots of rewards and little work.
Therefore, this coupon was given out by someone in the guild and is completely illegitimate.
He not only wants to eat it himself, but also shares it with others, which inevitably drives up the price.
Li Xia nodded and asked, "What price did they offer?"
"The other party wants to offer a Time-Space Silver Coin, or something of equal value."
"Damn, are you robbing me?"
Awoo was stunned for a moment, then flew into a rage.

Chapter 6 Seeing the Demonic Eye
"A 50% increase? That's a whopping 250% increase!"
If it's Time-Space Copper Coins, wanting one or two is acceptable.
After all, although this thing is scarce, the boss has plenty of it. Most importantly, the boss has a stable supply of Time-Space Copper Coins.
But silver coins are different. Even if there are channels to exchange them, it depends on whether anyone is willing to exchange them.
Some apostles received silver coins, but it was a waste to use silver coins to instill skills with low proficiency; it was better to exchange them for copper coins.
Or they might simply want to pursue the infusion route for two skills, which is why they'd consider exchanging for silver coins, or exchanging them at the guild.
However, there are transaction fees, and they are not low.
What's more, the other party directly asked for silver coins, were they being too forward?
That's just an admission ticket! A ticket to the world!
"Silver coins are definitely out of the question."
Li Xia calmly said that the other party was asking for an exorbitant price.
Actually... there are just more people wanting a share of it...
The shady dealer was clearly helpless; he had never seen business done this way before.
"I also inquired about it. After that apostle became a mid-level manager, he replaced all the people on his line with people of the same ethnicity as him."
