Chapter 993 Treasure hunting

lightsΝοvεl ƈοm Lex was slightly taken aback by the revelation, though a part of him was relieved that at least Mary was humanoid. What if her original race had been some kind of spider? That would have been creepy.

"So you want to recreate a Celestial body?" he asked, while still mainly focusing on pulling out the necklace.The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))

"That's not possible, at least with your current realm. To do that, my newborn body would have to be at the minimum in the Celestial realm, as you call it. No, I'm just trying to recreate a body that has the potential to grow back into that. While I cannot recreate a body with that minimum cultivation level, I can create one that has the same potential and talent, if not somewhat greater, of a newborn Celestial. That way I have the hope of returning to my peak one day."

"Any tips for me, as a former Celestial?" he asked, almost joking. He knew she was severely limited in what she could do.

"The only relevant advice I can give you right now is not to underestimate the Mythical beings of this realm," she said, very seriously. "Although they will be limited by their cultivation realm, their bodies and their abilities should absolutely not be underestimated. They are called Mythical for a reason. There is a reason why they are the ones who leave behind legends."

Lex nodded. But at that point he finally pulled out the necklace from the bowl, causing the milky liquid to recede from the absolute tip of the bowl.

He felt a tinge of nervousness as he reached out to grab it. It seemed like too much to hope that the first item he searched for would be useful for the system, but he still could not help but hope.

Unfortunately, it was as he expected. Even when he grabbed the necklace, which was surprisingly heavy, there was no notification from the system.

Once again, he put it in the Gift shop and learned that it was a relatively brittle metal, but one that was an excellent spirit energy conductor. Perhaps it could be used to make some kind of useful alloy. A good engineer or weapon manufacturer could find a good use for it. As it was, he saw no immediate personal benefit he could gain from it so he left it in the Gift shop for the price of 1 million MP per gram. Even if he did not see the value in it did not mean it was worthless. After all, everything in this new realm was extremely rare.

The next place he teleported to was a small pond on an island surrounded by a lake. There were countless strong beasts patrolling the island, as if they were guards keeping an eye out for intruders.

But the strange, metallic liquid that made up the pond still did not give any reaction, though Lex soon found out that it was not a liquid, but a collection of countless microscopic parasites that were controlling every living being in the vicinity.

He was tempted to destroy the pool for a moment, but then decided against it. Until he gained a better understanding of the food chain and many intricate environmental systems in the Midnight realm, it was best he avoided making any drastic changes.

Like this, Lex continued to teleport to countless places of interest across his new territory. As demoralizing as it was not to get a single reaction from the system, he somewhat expected it. After all, how could items and materials that the system needed be easy to find?

Along the way, at the very least, Lex began to collect countless valuable treasures that would drive ordinary people insane. From fruits that could regrow limbs, to elixirs that could turn a mortal into a cultivator instantly, to life saving and even life threatening treasures, he gathered many.

But, over the period of the first 18 hours, he still did not find anything that could help the system recover. He was starting to get concerned, but the system itself had stated that the chances of something in the new realm being able to help it recover were high, so he was not ready to give up so easily.

He returned to the Inn to get some rest and analyze his approach and come up with better ideas. It did not help that, for whatever reason, in this new realm, he was getting exhausted quicker.
