553 The Bug Race’s Hiss
“Country Lord is wise!” Alice flattered him with a sweet smile and said, “The current situation is that because of the huge threat of the bug race, the other races can live in peace with our human race. However, if the threat of the bug race is no longer present, I think that with the morality of these foreign races, they will immediately turn against us. There might even be conflicts between them due to past grudges and conflicts.”
Li Xiang nodded and said, “Indeed. It’s already astonishing that these foreign races can live in peace with each other. Without external pressure, they’re just a bunch of motley crew. It was only a matter of time before something went wrong. Therefore, under such circumstances, the human race naturally has to make early plans and prepare for a rainy day. Otherwise, we’ll be killed by the foreign race!”
Before he came, Li Xiang knew it was difficult for the human race to get along with the foreign race. At first, he did not know how to start from scratch, but he did not expect to be rejected before he even managed to begin. He did not even need to find a reason.
Because of this, he did not immediately go to the gray wolves. Instead, he swallowed his anger and left with the human race.
He felt even more fortunate. Otherwise, he would have to make a big scene in the city and inevitably waste some time.
…
Three days passed by in a flash.
In the past few days, the frontier trade in Ice City had become increasingly popular.
New foreign races would arrive daily, and all kinds of rare treasures and precious resources would gather in the Kingdom of Dawn.
Large amounts of materials were being sold, allowing foreign races to exchange them for Star Coins. Some foreign races even came here just for Star Coins, exchanging all kinds of precious and natural treasures for Star Coins without hesitation, which significantly accelerated the promotion of Star Coins.
Many foreign races had already experienced the benefits of Star Coins, which was why they were so generous.
Absorbing the energy within could speed up one’s cultivation and even improve comprehension.
Such an increase was desirable to transcendents of any level. This was almost equivalent to a divine weapon cultivation amplifier. However, their effect was not inferior to those medicinal pills that could increase one’s skill.
Although some potions and elixirs had better effects than Star Coins, the key was that there were no hidden dangers when absorbing Star Coins, and one could obtain them continuously.
Those potions and elixirs could not be compared to the Star Coins in value and quantity. Their universality was also on a different level.
This was the most crucial time.
Especially after the Star Coins were used as the currency for transactions, even the Huge Boulder City began to use the Star Coins as the currency for settlement. It completely replaced the previous messy currencies of various forces and bartering. It became almost a cooperative exchange using Star Coins.
Many foreign races were jealous of the magical function of the Star Coins, and they wanted to find a way to make them.
However, no matter how they tried, the methods and treasures they used, they could not figure out the actual structure of the Star Coins.
People even used special tools to contact the true God to analyze the mystery of the Star Coins, but they all failed in the end.
Everyone was shocked by the mystery of the Star Coins.
These currencies were entrusted with countless people’s various desires and thoughts. Naturally, therefore, they were messy.
The currency was also naturally incomparably filthy. If not handled well, it could pollute a person’s spirit and obscure one’s spiritual intelligence. The core divine restriction of the Star Coins could gather all kinds of distracting thoughts and desires in the world. If the Star Coins were allowed to circulate for a longer time, they might even taint the divinity of the true God.
If one were not careful and allowed these distracting thoughts and desires to emerge, it could lead to the fall of a true God or even death.
From this, one could see the power of the Star Coins.
And the fact that Star Coins could speed up cultivation speed and efficiency frustrated countless intelligent foreign races.
No matter how they tried and how they forged the coins according to the shape of the Star Coins, the coins they generated were far from the Star Coins.
Regarding materials, these cultivators had the same idea as Li Xiang. They all used crystals that contained heaven and earth vitality. However, the meditation room itself was no different from crystals. One was a crystal, while the other was a Crystal Coin. Although they were the same size, a Crystal Coin’s heaven and earth vitality were much less than that of a Star Coin.
The Crystal Coin was incomparable in terms of exquisiteness and the various buffs for cultivators. However, compared to the Star Coins, it was not worth mentioning at all.
This was something that the foreign race did not know. Star Coins could be recycled and directly condensed on the Money Tree. Then, they would absorb heaven and earth vitality again and recover to their original state. After that, they would be recycled and circulated continuously.
If they had known this, it would make them even more desperate. This was impossible for them to achieve.
Since they could not forge it quickly, all the foreign races had to increase their efforts to store more Star Coins. As a result, the number of rare treasures and precious resources they used was tremendous, and the number of Star Coins they could exchange for was also quite large.
However, this was nothing to Li Xiang. With the Money Tree, he did not have to worry about the number of Star Coins. He was only afraid that the foreign races would be unable to use them up.
With the support of an endless stream of faith and wish power, the number of Star Coins was uncountable.
Of course, in the face of such a huge benefit, some people played dirty tricks and set their sights on Li Xiang.
However, Li Xiang, as the Lord of Dawn, was able to defeat the Alliance of Gods’ siege. Therefore, it would not be easy to deal with him.
Moreover, there were angels, Giant Dragon, and even a Supreme demon in Ice City. With such a setup, even if they wanted to launch a sneak attack, they would not be able to find an opportunity. So, in the end, they could only give up on the idea.
Roar!
One morning, a sharp cry suddenly came from the other side of the Heavenly River.
This screech carried a terrifying will that could destroy everything, causing everyone to fear and feel oppressed.
It was as if an incomparably terrifying disaster was about to erupt around them instantly. People were agitated and panicked instinctively.
“What a terrifying mental power. It can even shake my divine soul and the Starlight Shrine in my sea of consciousness. If not for the Starlight Shrine suppressing my sea of consciousness, I would have been dazed for a moment!”
The warriors of Ice City were also shaken by the sound and could not help but groan. Some of them with weaker mental power had blood flowing out of their eyes and ears.
“My head hurts!”
“What’s going on? I can’t even control my body. This roar is too scary.”
“This is an attack aimed at the soul!”
Many of them were pale and had cold sweat on their foreheads. They could not react and could only stand in place with great effort, holding their posts with willpower.
