“Soul Suppressing Bell!”

Lin Yuan picked up the small black bell and examined it over and over.

Among the fifty prizes for this tournament, the Soul Suppressing Bell was the most valuable.

Soul defense weapons were already extremely rare, and with the Soul Suppressing Bell reaching Fourth Rank, it was almost a natural nemesis to Fourth Rank soul illusion class Evolvers.

Lin Yuan caressed the small black bell, his mind stirred, and he infused his soul power into it, beginning the Refining process.

Before long.

The Soul Suppressing Bell vanished and appeared in the sea of consciousness.

“Not bad, not bad at all,” he nodded slightly to himself.

Among the many Evolution Paths, the soul illusion type was the most unpredictable and difficult to defend against.

Especially soul attacks, which ignored physical defenses and targeted the soul directly.

If one didn’t have a soul class defense weapon or a secret technique to protect the soul.

One could only bear soul attacks with sheer resilience.

Bear it and live.

Fail to bear it and die.

With the Soul Suppressing Bell, Lin Yuan’s sense of security had greatly increased.

Though the Martial Path Evolutionary Path had measures to protect the soul.

Having an extra Soul Suppressing Bell for protection was naturally a good thing.

Moreover.

Lin Yuan chose the Soul Suppressing Bell to use it in combination with the ‘Life Fruit’.

If one day Lin Yuan’s physical body were shattered, leaving only his soul protected by the Soul Suppressing Bell.

At that time, consuming the Life Fruit, with its tremendous vitality energy, could rapidly restore Lin Yuan’s physical body, akin to having an extra life.

Thinking of this, Lin Yuan turned his gaze toward another item.

It was a wooden box, and inside was the very Life Fruit.

Lin Yuan picked up the box and gently opened it.

In an instant, a terrifying vitality spread outwards in all directions.

An intoxicating fragrance filled the air, all of which originated from inside the box, from that infant-fist-sized green fruit.

“I really want to eat it…”

Lin Yuan swallowed his saliva. Instinct told him that eating this Life Fruit would be of great benefit.

But that was just instinct after all.

According to the description of the Life Fruit, in the period after eating it, every cell of the body would be engulfed by inexhaustible life energy.

During that time, no matter what injuries one sustained, they would recover at a terrifying speed.

But that was only for that period, after which the effects of the Life Fruit would dissipate, and everything would revert to its original state.

Clap!

Lin Yuan immediately closed the wooden box.

Keeping the Life Fruit open to the air would cause its vitality to dissipate at some rate.

“Hmm?”

Lin Yuan glanced around.

The rich fragrance that lingered when the box was open was also a manifestation of the life force.

“I inhale.”

Lin Yuan took a deep breath. With his constitution, all the air around, including the fragrance emanating from the Life Fruit, was drawn into his chest.

The fragrance was then fully absorbed, the faint vitality lingering around him, giving Lin Yuan a sensation of floating on air.

Lin Yuan savored the experience for a moment, then put away the wooden box.

“Soul Nourishing Jade.”

Lin Yuan picked up the third item.

It was a jade pendant, nearly transparent, that when touched to the skin, allowed a slight energy to fuse into the body, nurturing the soul at an incredibly slow rate.

Although slow, the effect was continuous; as long as Lin Yuan wore it, it would not cease, even if he advanced to Fifth Rank the effect would only weaken.

“What a fabulous treasure,” Lin Yuan carried the Soul Nourishing Jade close to his body.

“Jiuli Liquid.”

Lin Yuan turned his attention to the last item.

Jiuli originated from a Barbaric Wilderness Planet. When the Cosmic Human Alliance conquered this planet, they discovered the natives, using some kind of ritual, produced ‘Jiuli Holy Water’ which had a good enhancement effect on the physical body.

Later, some scholars from Human Civilization improved it, and thus ‘Jiuli Liquid’ was born.

Compared to ‘Jiuli Holy Water’, the effects of Jiuli Liquid were much stronger and had no side effects.

Lin Yuan picked up the Jiuli Liquid.

It was a test tube filled with a light silver liquid that looked quite beautiful and dazzling.

“Jiuli Liquid worth five billion, and also on limited sale? Not available for purchase by citizens below level three?”

Lin Yuan examined it closely.

The highest value he had purchased before was only a single fruit worth seven billion.

And one vial of Jiuli Liquid could purchase seven of those fruits.

“The correct way to use Jiuli Liquid is not to swallow it directly or refine it.”

“Instead, it is to be diluted and used to soak the entire body.”

Lin Yuan went to the bath, adjusted the water level to two-thirds full, then stripped off his clothes and immersed himself.

“They say that using Jiuli Liquid is agonizing, and initially, not everyone on that Barbaric Wilderness Planet could bear the baptism of ‘Jiuli Holy Water’.”

Lin Yuan opened the tube and slowly poured the silver liquid into the bath.

Almost the next second.

Lin Yuan felt his skin start to heat up.

“Is it taking effect?”

He quickly poured the remaining Jiuli Liquid into the bath.

Then he closed his eyes and began to slowly register the changes in his body.

It started with an intense heat.

From the skin, to the flesh, to the organs, to the bones.

Layer by layer, the temperature rose steadily.

Lin Yuan’s expression remained calm; this level of pain was nothing to him.

To others, Lin Yuan was just a twenty-something-year-old genius Evolver.

But in reality, Lin Yuan had lived through three lifetimes, totaling more than two hundred years.

Though he was still far younger than the average age among Fourth Rank Evolvers, adapting to the pain inflicted by Jiuli water was naturally easy for him.

Hiss, hiss.
