In Chapter Four

, Xu Ming rummaged through the four chests in the corner, finding

countless pearls, jade, gold ingots, and various gold and silver jewelry inlaid with gemstones. The sheer size of the chests alone meant that even if they were only filled with

wood, each chest would weigh over a thousand jin (approximately 500 kg),

let alone the metals like gold and silver. At sixteen years old, he was already quite tall for his age in this world

, roughly 1.68 to 1.7 meters in Earth's real-world units. Yet,

the edges of the chests reached his chest and abdomen, requiring him to stand on tiptoe to reach anything.

These four wide, long, and tall chests were more like

oversized . And this treasure room clearly contained more than just these four chests; in another corner

, there were five more chests—one large and four small—though these were noticeably smaller than the ones in the chests.

Just as Xu Ming was racking his brains about

what , the system offered him a solution. The system could recycle these treasures,

exchanging them for system money and system points. However, this didn't align with the system's principle of recycling power, so the

exchanged money and points had to be spent immediately afterward, or exchanged for items

through the system's shops and mall.

The exchanged items could only be objects, or special privileges like "one-time immunity to death,"

not abilities, skills, experience, or other intangible things. In other words, besides

choosing Resident Evil 3
world created by Yuan Hai and his own warlord TV

series (which proved useless since he had his own healing stones

), he could only exchange for martial arts manuals or divine weapons from the martial arts online game world created by Meng Fanyong

.

Fortunately, while this forced transaction prevented Xu Ming from wasting these treasures,

it also forced him to spend all the system money and points he had saved. Therefore,

the system was very generous with the exchange rates: 30 silver ingots of 50 taels each could be exchanged for 3000 system money,

20 grape-sized pearls for 5000, six 10-tael gold ingots for 8000,

and a seven-inch square piece of flawless white jade for
10,000. For every 100,000 system money exchanged, one system point would

be awarded .

After his frenzied buying spree, Xu Ming thoroughly cleaned the four boxes, even prying off

the copper strips, now covered in green rust, used to reinforce the boxes. He

then exchanged these strips, along with several ancient bronze mirrors from one of the boxes, for
between 100 and 1000 system money.

However, after exchanging more than half, reaching 1.1 million coins, he had already secured
the immunity from death . Although if he hadn't used it this time, whether taking it to the dream world, the next mission world , or the real world, he would still need to pay 100,000 system coins per world. However, since his main objective couldn't be achieved this time, he had to leave this world first, so his mother's soul would still be trapped inside. Therefore, he would return to this world next time, and this ability was bound to his soul . So, as long as his soul entered this world again, he wouldn't need to pay the 100,000 coins again. He had already considered this, which was why he bought this item early on, which wasn't always available in the system shop. Although, because these dream warriors' souls were possessed and fused into the bodies of people who died or no longer existed in the mission world, the necessity of survival upon entering the mission world varied depending on the final mission objective. In some cases, one's own death (whether from old age , illness, or death in battle) can be a way to complete the ultimate goal. For example, Ding Haifeng, who chose to settle in the dream world, had two solo missions, one allowing death and the other allowing completion through death. However, others weren't as lucky, at least not Xu Yang. He had to live to complete the objective and exit the world freely. Otherwise, death was death, and the dream system wouldn't save him. This was different from fighting in the dream world, and the system hadn't explained the differences, nor were they foolish enough to think the system would answer their questions. Although after choosing a world, following the predetermined path of the system's objective would prevent major risks as long as they didn't forcibly violate, disrupt, or attempt to reverse the world's style, Xu Yang Therefore, he felt that spending one million yuan was still necessary . If he didn't need it this time, he could prepare for the next one, or even spend . Then, he exchanged and spent money simultaneously. After spending 20,000, 40,000, and 50,000 coins respectively, he obtained a personal storage space bound to this mission world. One was a gun storage space in the form of a dart pouch , containing a bomb launcher from *Resident Evil 3* that he bought for 60,000 coins . He also spent an additional 10,000 coins to have the system modify the gun so it could be reloaded at any time, and then bought 70 more rounds of ammunition and put them into the gun's ammunition storage space. There was also a disposable S &W 500 revolver that he bought for 10,000 coins, which came with 10 rounds of ammunition and would disappear one minute after firing all 10 rounds or the first shot . The second was a money space that could only hold gold, silver, and other valuables, existing in the form of a pouch that could be hung on the waist or tucked into the pocket. Inside were some high-value pearls, gems, and jade that Xu Ming had selected , as well as some gold and a small amount of silver. The third type is a storage space prepared for storing equipment, items, and martial arts manuals . It doesn't have an external form; you can simply reach into a hidden pouch in your robes.

Or he could simply reach into any pocket and pull out the items from his spatial storage.

Having exchanged most of his money here, Xu Ming deliberately kept a lot unspent, and didn't buy any weapons, equipment, or martial arts manuals from the world Meng Fanyong

had visited . This was because the large and four small

chests on the other side were clearly much smaller than the treasure chests here, obviously containing high-end items recognized by the system. If there

were any valuable items, he would have to use money and points to redeem them.

However, after Xu Yang opened the first small chest and glanced at it, he tossed the chest and its contents

aside . Inside were some nautical charts marking trade routes,

hydrological data around several commercial ports of the Chrysanthemum Kingdom and the Martial Dynasty, some topographical maps, and several

contacts and codes left by the original noble family in the Chrysanthemum Kingdom for their trade wars.

The problem was that just counting the death of that noble's illegitimate son, more than 120 years had passed; if you added

the time since this treasure was acquired, it would be even longer. Whether the trading post still exists or has changed owners

is unknown; even if it still exists, its owners must have changed hands three generations ago. In the past hundred years, both the Chrysanthemum Kingdom and the East China Sea

have experienced frequent earthquakes, significantly altering the terrain. Most of the original trade routes and sea routes have either been altered or completely abandoned.

Furthermore, due to river siltation and changes in the coastline, port hydrological data is utterly useless.

Moreover, even if everything inside is correct, Xu Yang simply doesn't have enough time to use

it to build his own power. What he needs to do now is wait for the Dream System to complete its calculations and

issue his first-stage "target mission" so he can complete it and exit the mission world, reducing the system's power

consumption. That said, even if he doesn't need to exit quickly, following the original plan, these

things are still of no help to him, even if they were all useful. Therefore, this box is essentially

full of junk.

The second, smaller box, when opened, surprised Xu Ming slightly.

Inside this small box was a thin booklet with the words "Lesser Yin Divine Skill" printed on the cover. Xu Yang had encountered this martial arts manual

in a game before; it was among the top five martial arts manuals in the mortal realm,

the best of several different martial arts manuals issued by the royal family to nobles who married into the royal family. It was unexpected that this

guy who instigated a slave rebellion and went into hiding would actually manage to obtain a martial arts manual issued by the royal family to their relatives.

Although it wasn't the complete

version , this woodblock-printed version still contained martial arts techniques sufficient to rank

among the top ten internal martial arts in the world. Moreover, because this woodblock-printed version had a lower level of internal martial arts,

it also included appendices on a series of techniques such as lightness skills, footwork, swordsmanship, whip techniques, combined whip and sword techniques, and

techniques for using both simultaneously, as well as some descriptions of hidden weapon techniques.

If this were taken to the martial arts novel world that Xu Yang planned to visit after this world ended,

it would be a treasure that would cause a bloodbath in the martial arts world, easily ranking among the top three comprehensive

martial arts masterpieces. Even now, for Xu Yang, this thing is still very valuable. Originally, for

the people of this world, such a printed manual, with its profound and obscure language, no illustrations, and requiring a royal

tutor to easily understand and learn, would be quite useless.

Moreover, although the technique is quite powerful, its practice does not live up to its reputation as a "divine skill

." Even with a royal tutor translating the manual and providing careful instruction,

most talented and gifted imperial relatives would need six months to get started, three years to achieve minor success, five years to master it

, and ten years to become proficient. However, for the dream warriors with the system behind them, these difficulties and

obstacles do not exist. Therefore, this manual is more suitable in Xu Yang's hands than in the hands of anyone else in this world

.

The system agreed, as evidenced by the exorbitant price it set for the manual:

a full 100,000 coins. While it only required system currency, not points, it was still an exorbitant price. However,

the system then offered a condition: this 100,000 coins could be paid in a single payment to take the manual to

any world other than Earth's real world, including the vast dream world. Even the attributes

cultivated from could be acquired at a cost of 10 coins per attribute point,
a one-time

payment that was permanent. These attributes could even be brought into Earth's real world, though their effectiveness would be reduced to

one-tenth , requiring another payment.

Judging from the manual's effects, it could be placed in a cultivation slot and upgraded using cultivation points. The manual is divided into seven
levels. Each

level grants +2 to Constitution, +2 to Strength, +140 to Internal Force, +4 to Sword

Mastery, +4 to Whip Mastery, +3 to Hidden Weapon Mastery, and +1
to Lightness Skill. Every two levels grant a permanent

3-point damage reduction, with the seventh level providing a 5-point reduction.

A 9mm
pistol, while ignoring all non-

armor-type defenses in a mission world, only inflicts a mere 10 points of damage per bullet on non-vital areas.

If Xu Ming masters all seven levels, he can ignore such pistol shots on all non-vital areas in any mission world

.

Therefore, Xu Ming immediately redeemed the manual with 100,000 gold and added it to his

cultivation slot. Although it requires 1000 cultivation points to upgrade one
level, he felt that the higher the reward

, the harder the upgrade, which was reasonable. Therefore, he was overjoyed to find such a high-quality item in a treasure he hadn't held much hope for

. With a beaming smile, he smugly continued to rummage through the remaining

large and two small boxes.
