Chapter 502 - 482: Ten Thousand Calamities Atlas

Chapter 502: Chapter 482: Ten Thousand Calamities Atlas

Zhang City’s heart skipped a beat when he saw the name. It was a Top-Grade Healing Potion!

"This..."

Healing Potions were a type of cure-all Potion, and their core ingredient was the Water of Life.

They were made by continuously diluting the Water of Life and adding other materials.

They were divided into Low Level, Middle Level, High Level, and top-grade, with the pure Water of Life having the strongest healing effect.

Their prices increased with each tier.

A single bottle of Top-Grade Healing Potion was worth over a million Xia Country Coins.

It could restore a Martial Artist’s stamina, heal physical injuries, and activate the body’s self-healing factors.

It was more than enough to heal the injuries on Zhang City’s body.

Although he was a teacher at Tianhai No. 2 Middle School and earned over a million a year, he could never bring himself to spend that kind of money on a bottle of Top-Grade Healing Potion.

At this thought, Zhang City’s heart filled with gratitude for Lin Qi.

’I’m just an ordinary teacher, yet Lin Qi was willing to spend a fortune of over a million on a Potion to heal me.’

...

WHOOSH!

On the highway, Lin Qi sped along in his new, million-coin luxury car, heading home.

’With the Top-Grade Healing Potion, Zhang City’s injuries can finally heal completely.’

’He has too many children of his fallen comrades to look after. If I just gave him the money, he probably wouldn’t bear to spend it on himself.’

’It was better to buy the Top-Grade Healing Potion and give it to him directly. Besides, as an SSS-rank genius, I get a 50% discount.’

Of course, he hadn’t actually spent any money, because this Top-Grade Healing Potion was a gift from someone at the celebration banquet.

He had no use for it, so it was perfect to give to Zhang City.

He had many similar items that he could give to his other teachers.

...

After the college entrance exams, the public’s excitement gradually faded.

The attention of the Xia Country People returned to Tianzhu Country.

After two days, the losses in Tianzhu Country’s Bangalore City were tallied and announced.

A total of 4,500 Martial Artists were sacrificed, over 50,000 ordinary people died, and 250,000 were injured.

The economic losses from the breach of the War Base were even more immense.

It also made the entire world feel the terrifying destructive power of a Level 10 Calamity Beast.

「Martial Arts Calendar, Year 2048, June 12.」

A Super Large Disaster Beast Tide erupted in the White Eagle Federation’s state of Alaska.

A Level 10 Calamity Beast appeared once again, drawing the attention of countries all over the world.

"According to our latest report, yesterday, Imperial Capital time..."

"...at 2:00 a.m., the Polar Fortress in the White Eagle Federation’s state of Alaska was breached after a one-hour siege."

"Three types of unknown Ninth-Level Calamity Beasts and one confirmed Level 10 Calamity Beast appeared in this Super Large Disaster Beast Tide."

"It has now been six hours since the Space Gate opened."

"The Level 10 Calamity Beast was hunted by six Ninth Realm Martial Artists and managed to escape into the Otherworld, but not before severely injuring two of them."

"The six Ninth-Level Calamity Beasts that appeared with it were all killed, including the three unknown types."

That morning, Lin Qi was eating breakfast with his parents, watching the latest news broadcast.

His father, Lin Zhen, sighed.

"Another Level 10 Calamity Beast has appeared. That’s two of them now."

"Ordinary War Bases simply can’t withstand an attack from a Level 10 Calamity Beast. You need Ninth Realm Martial Artists."

"They lead Ninth-Level Calamity Beasts in their assaults. Unless Ninth Realm Martial Artists team up to kill them quickly..."

"...ordinary thermal weapons can’t even break their defense."

His mother, Fang Huiyi, also looked worried.

"Now Tianzhu Country and the White Eagle Federation have both been attacked by Level 10 Calamity Beasts. It’s only a matter of time before it’s our turn."

Lin Qi nodded.

"Don’t worry, Mom. Our Xia Country is different from the others."

"We have much greater combat power; we won’t end up in a situation like theirs."

Although Lin Qi was also quite worried, he could only comfort his parents.

In other words, all he could do was make himself stronger.

After breakfast, his parents went to the company to continue their business discussions with the Xu Group.

Lin Qi returned to the Martial Arts Room to prepare for his day’s Cultivation.

He looked at his phone, where everyone in a group chat was discussing the matter. They were all geniuses from rich and powerful families.

They had access to more information. The first piece of news was that the major War Bases had already begun expansion and renovation.

The plan was to use harder metals, even at a higher cost, to withstand the impact of a Level 10 Calamity Beast.

Meanwhile, in the small group chat with his teacher Mu Hong, his senior, Liang Tai, mentioned that many Martial Artists had recently arrived at his station, the Black Dragon Base.

There were even quite a few High Realm Martial Artists among them.

He had even seen two Ninth Realm Martial Artists.

Lin Qi put down his phone, ready to begin his Cultivation. But before that, he needed to buy a new Spiritual Power Cultivation Method.

"Little Chan, open Red Dome House!"

"Yes, Master!"

A projection of Little Chan, dressed in a blue robe, appeared. She raised a delicate hand, and a screen materialized.

Lin Qi quickly swiped through the interface, logged into Red Dome House, and entered the [Cultivation Technique] module to perform a search.

[Cultivation Technique] → [Spiritual Power] → [High Level]

He clicked confirm, and the page refreshed, revealing several Cultivation Techniques.

[Advanced Spiritual Power Technique (16)]

Lin Qi glanced at the number. There were only 16 techniques, ten with a Four-star rating and six with a Five-star rating.

And these 16 Spiritual Power Cultivation Methods already comprised more than 90% of all Spiritual Techniques in the world.

Compared to High-Level Source Energy Techniques, creating a Spiritual Power Technique was much more difficult.

Lin Qi’s gaze quickly locked onto the six Five-star rated Spiritual Power Techniques.

Starry Sky Visualization Technique, Ten Thousand Calamities Atlas

Green Heaven Lotus Observation Method, Nine-Layered Tower Visualization Technique

Infinite Sea Observation Method, Ten Thousand Swords Visualization Technique

...

Lin Qi briefly scanned the list, his eyes settling on the Ten Thousand Calamities Atlas.

[Ten Thousand Calamities Atlas, Category: Spiritual Power, Rating: ★★★★★, Price: 200 million Xia Country Coins (No discounts applicable), Note: Red Dome]

...

Judging by the name, the Ten Thousand Calamities Atlas was the advanced version of the Thousand Calamities Atlas.

He clicked on it to view the Secret Manual’s description.

The Ten Thousand Calamities Atlas was divided into six minor realms, three fewer than the Thousand Calamities Atlas.

It began with visualizing a Seventh-Level Calamity Beast fighting against a hundred other Seventh-Level Calamity Beasts, then progressing to battling a thousand, and eventually even ten thousand of them.

The highest realm involved visualizing an Eighth-Level Calamity Beast fighting against ten thousand other Eighth-Level Calamity Beasts.

As for visualizing a Ninth Realm Calamity Beast, it seemed no one had ever achieved it, as the required Spiritual Power was simply too immense.

The creator of this technique also stated that this was merely a theoretical realm.

Just reaching the sixth realm was enough to possess the Spiritual Power of a Ninth Realm expert.

Lin Qi didn’t hesitate and placed the order directly.

’Two hundred million Xia Country Coins. The price is truly steep.’ If it weren’t for the 180 million Xia Country Coin subsidy he received every month, he really couldn’t have afforded it.

[Fingerprint Verification Successful]

[Payment Successful!]

[Student Lin Qi, your copy of the Ten Thousand Calamities Atlas will be delivered to your door tomorrow.]

...

Turning off the projection, Lin Qi checked his current net worth.

[Phone Balance: 530 million Xia Country Coins]

A total of 530 million Xia Country Coins, plus a monthly subsidy of 180 million, and over several tons of Level 7 Disaster Beast Flesh and Blood.

This was enough to sustain his daily Cultivation, but he had a feeling that this amount of money might not be enough.

Next, he still needed to purchase a High-Level Source Energy Technique.

That would be another huge expense.

Therefore, after breaking through to the Seventh Realm, he would also need to step onto the battlefield to hunt Calamity Beasts and earn money.

After some simple contemplation, he cleared his mind of distracting thoughts and began his Marrow Refining cultivation.
