Chapter 851: Choosing the Path
Chapter 851: Choosing the Path
Su Yu looked at Tina and Ailijie and said, "I’m now at the peak of the seventh realm, and I’m planning to gather the rare materials needed for my next breakthrough. I’ll also do some trading to earn some Psychic Coins. Hopefully, everything will go smoothly!"
The "trading" Su Yu mentioned refers to using the vast space of the [Golden Sparrow Dimension Chain] and the advantage of instantaneous long-distance teleportation to transport goods from one region to another, earning the price difference.
It was January 27th, still in the middle of the dimension. For now, he couldn’t make as much profit by trading between dimensions, so he needed to travel more routes to earn enough Psychic Coins.
Tina and Ailijie understood what Su Yu meant by "trading," as he had mentioned it to them before.
Ailijie’s red-and-white skirt hemmed slightly, and she frowned. "But in both the main dimension and the new one, the rare materials are owned by someone, so it won’t be easy to get them, right?"
High-level rare materials are always owned by someone, a consensus in the game world.
For example, the "Heart of the World Tree" is a top-tier material for a Druid to break through their bottleneck.
But these materials are priceless, and no amount of Psychic Coins can acquire them.
If not for Su Yu’s help with the Fairy Kingdom’s busywork, he definitely couldn’t obtain such top-tier materials.
Now, for Su Yu to acquire top-tier materials from major factions will be extremely difficult.
"Don’t worry, I’ve already thought about this," Su Yu smiled at Ailijie.
He took out his [Advanced Scholar Badge] and waved it in front of them. "You shouldn’t forget, I’m a Seer of the Prophecy school. With my seer abilities, I can clearly predict the locations of future rare materials, and even help many tribes solve problems, so obtaining rare materials isn’t as difficult as you think."
Of course, Su Yu wasn’t really a "Seer of the Prophecy school," but he did have a way to find the top-tier materials he needed.
In his past life, Su Yu had made a point of his rare abilities, so he had almost clear to sit alone. He had a special reason for not wanting to meet alone, mainly because it always made him uncomfortable. Su Yu and Ailijie both felt the same way, and he had a clear understanding of the importance of not meeting alone. Su Yu smiled, "Alright, if I need any help, I’ll find Kelthron. He can relay the message to my clone, and my clone will do its best to help you."
"Alright, let’s do it this way, then. I’ll go with Tina first!"
With that, Ailijie waved her little hand in a farewell gesture to Su Yu.
After the farewell, the two left through the teleportation portal to leave the mage’s tower.
Alilijie’s absence left him alone in the mage’s tower, and Su Yu sat left the only one left in the room, his knees crossed on the floor beside the magic array.
He first opened his backpack and carefully counted the number of Psychic Coins inside.
After counting, he sighed softly.
"Ah, only a little over 3.3 billion left. I'm so poor!"
This amount of money was far from enough for his needs.
Even a top-tier seventh-rank heavenly material would cost around 7 to 8 billion Psychic Coins, and that's assuming someone was willing to sell it.
He needed to think of the most efficient trade routes to earn more coins.
Earning around 30 to 40 billion Psychic Coins would be enough to cover his expenses.
...
However, before he started trading, he needed to determine his path of advancement.
When advancing to the eighth rank, every cultivator had to choose a specific path. While it was possible to study multiple paths after reaching the eighth rank, it would require a significant amount of time.
The best way to advance after reaching the eighth rank was to specialize in one path. Only by focusing on one path could he rapidly increase his realm.
Su Yu reviewed his own situation.
He was proficient in the elemental and spatial paths and had a bit of knowledge in arcane magic, which he learned from Khadgar.
Among the four elemental paths, he was most skilled in the water path.
This was due to the enhancement from Bernelina's Tidal Legacy, which gave him an edge in both power and refinement over the other elements.
If Su Yu wanted to study multiple paths, like now, where he needed to balance the four elemental paths and the spatial path, it wasn't impossible, but his progress would be extremely slow.
He might reach the peak of the divine realm in the water path, but the same amount of time spent on all five paths would only get him to the mid-divine realm.
Therefore, he had to choose one path to focus on.
Which path should he choose?
Su Yu fell into deep thought.
...
After about half an hour of consideration, using the process of elimination to rule out the less suitable options, he was left with only two choices: the water path and the spatial path.
The water path had the advantage of Bernelina's legacy.
As for the spatial path, Su Yu also had a legacy, the "Spatial Legacy Crystal," which Xiaotian brought back from the Skrull Star's secret realm.
The "Spatial Legacy Crystal" contained an eighth-rank legacy.
However, the issue was that he didn't know the exact level of the legacy within the crystal.
It was like comparing different divine legacies on the Skrull Star. The legacy left by Plante would be several tiers higher than that left by Sider.
Bernelina Tidal was at the mid-divine realm, and her legacy was well-known and risk-free;
The "Spatial Legacy Crystal" had some risks, but it could be used as a heavenly material during a breakthrough, increasing his chances of success, and it was his favorite spatial path...
It was a tough decision!
...
Despite his long deliberation over the two paths, Su Yu still couldn't make a decision.
In the end, he decided to ask Xiaotian, who had always had good luck.
Xiaotian was online at the moment.
So, Su Yu immediately sent her a message: "Are you there? Are you busy now? I have something to ask you."
He quickly received a reply from Xiaotian, and the message started with an [Angry] emoticon.
Xiaotian: [Angry emoticon] "Su Yu, do you only think of me when you need something? You never bother to talk to me otherwise?"
