Chapter 7

"Did you sell all your luggage?" Li Mo asked, his eyes twitching.

How could this little girl seem so unreliable? First, she ran away from home, then she brought things that couldn't be taken away, and now she has exchanged everything without any hesitation. She really acts decisively, without considering the consequences.

But the little girl fearlessly leaned over to his ear and whispered mysteriously, "Yes, I'll tell you a secret, I got 800 points in total. Hurry up and help me choose something!"

"800?!"

Hearing this number, Li Mo was shocked. The Demon Bone had been in the Wheel Hall for four whole years, committing all sorts of evil deeds, and even with his previous accumulation, his total wealth was only 20,000 points. Now, it was all easily squandered.

What was the identity of this little girl? A bag of luggage could actually be exchanged for so many points? His leather armor and short sword, when bundled together, weren't even worth a single point in the Wheel Hall.

"Wait a moment, I'll help you decide! Don't waste your points recklessly." Realizing that the girl was unreliable, Li Mo didn't want to see her die because of her recklessness, so he decided to help her.

Similarly, facing an unknown world, Li Mo also needed to exchange some items for self-defense. So he summoned the long list of items through his consciousness.

...

The *Huangting Inner Scenery Scripture*, *Buddha Palm* (lacking the Buddha weapon), *Sea Tiger Explosion*, *Zifu Secret Record*, *Great Sun Golden Crow Technique* (with a gift of a Golden Crow tail feather)... These were all top-tier cultivation techniques, which were too expensive for Li Mo and beyond his comprehension, so he passed them.

Further down, there were the *Hun Tian Treasure Mirror* (first seven cultivation routes, lacking the Heavenly Crystal), *Heavenly Demon God Slaying Technique*, *Three Fires Return to the Origin*, *Heavenly Demon Technique*, *Blood Nerve Scripture* (secondary volume), *Hesa Strange Book*, *Six Calamities Forbidden Techniques*... The prices were still too high, and they had some flaws, being too profound, so he continued to pass.

*Indestructible Golden Body*, *Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Origin*... pass, *War God Chart*, *Dao Heart Planting Demon Technique*, *Purple Blood Great Technique*, *Beidou Assassination Fist*... pass, *Nine Yang Divine Technique*, *Nine Yin True Scripture*, *Dragon Elephant Prajna*... The prices finally became cheaper, but he still passed. *Five Tigers Interrupting the Gate Saber*... Well, this one could be useful.

The prices of martial arts before the Innate stage finally dropped.

Li Mo carefully analyzed and summarized. The high-end martial arts and cultivation techniques had no discernible pattern, but he noticed some clues with the lower-level ones. Any technique that didn't reach the Innate stage was generally in the range of a few hundred points. Once there was a chance to break through to the Innate stage or Foundation Establishment, the price would be in the thousands. As for even higher prices, they were beyond his understanding.

In addition, high-level cultivation techniques seemed to be exchangeable in parts. Some required Foundation Establishment as a prerequisite, some were simply the application methods (Seven Major Limits), and some started from the basics and could be cultivated all the way to the end.

Besides these familiar cultivation techniques, there were many he had never heard of, with bizarre and indescribable styles, and their prices were also very high.

For example: *Three Seals of Holy Light Buddha Palm*, *Elemental Indestructible Body* (Water Element), *Lich Life Box Star Breaking Technique* (Four Life Stars), *Spirit Sucking Demon Scripture*, *Flame Lord Indestructible Demon Flame*, *Mad War Demon Mixed Yuan Wuji Four Pillar Techniques*, *Oakwood Nine Transformations*, *Flame Demon Martial Treatise*, *Taiyi Earth Spirit Immortal Slaying Secret Record 1.2 Revised Edition*...

These cultivation techniques, like the *Three Essentials of External Alchemy* in Li Mo's hands, were all modified versions of techniques obtained by the natives of the magic world, combined with the wisdom of the two civilizations, to fit the 'Sithaheim World Rules'.

Li Mo guessed that simply exchanging ordinary cultivation techniques might make them unusable in Sithaheim. They needed to be modified to fit the 'magic plane rules' to continue being used.

However, only those with extraordinary talent and familiarity with both cultivation systems could achieve this. Even if not, one had to exchange basic knowledge to understand the power systems of both civilizations to achieve compatibility.

No wonder the 'modified versions' were more expensive. Behind each such cultivation technique was the crystallization of wisdom from two different power systems, involving a large amount of basic knowledge.

At this moment, Li Mo understood the importance of the *Three Tribulations Scripture* in his hands. It wasn't that it could be directly cultivated in the main world, but rather the process of the collision of the two civilization systems behind this secret technique.

Once he understood the subtle rules, he could also deduce the corresponding 'modified versions' of other 'ordinary cultivation techniques'.

...

While Li Mo was deep in thought, the young man in silver armor suddenly stood up, breaking the strange silence, and said, "Everyone, my name is Andy. Please listen to what I have to say!"

The goblin, hiding there, regretfully looked at Tong En's already empty backpack, then turned to look at the young man, curious about what he would say. It had been over an hour since he was captured in this mysterious Wheel Hall, and he couldn't find a way out, feeling extremely frightened, fearing he would starve to death here.

The drow elf's expression was unpredictable, smiling at everyone, showing no sign of the dark elves' cunning and malice. The half-orc sitting there grunted, looking up at the young man, and the battle axe and wrist decorations in his hand had disappeared, probably exchanged for points.

"Please listen to me. What is this Wheel Hall? I think some of you have already guessed. In the past decade, the material plane has seen a large number of supreme experts who wield mysterious powers, capable of slaughtering demons and countering true gods. The origins of these powers are mysterious, and these experts are tight-lipped about them. I believe the source of these powers is this 'Wheel Hall'!"

Andy said this mainly to explain to Li Mo, the goblin, and Tong En. As for the drow elf and the half-orc, they had heard similar speculations and, combined with their own experiences, it wasn't hard to guess the truth.

In the main world of Sithaheim, the Wheel Hall did not prohibit the use of powers from other worlds, but it did not allow the mention of the 'Wheel Hall' itself.

Therefore, various basic cultivation techniques and alchemy-modified firearms had been widely popularized. Even many mages used seal script, Latin, and Sanskrit as secret languages to write their unique magic scrolls, making them stylish and fashionable, leading the trend of the times.

The principles of these things were completely different from the original magic civilization, and with their widespread dissemination, those who were interested could guess the truth. In the past decade, the Wheel Hall had become an open secret among the experts.

The only regret for these experts was the strict restrictions on entering the 'Wheel Hall', as only beings with special traits had the chance to be selected.

...

Victor, at the bottom of human society, had also heard the legends of the 'new heroes', but they were deified versions. He didn't understand the powers from other worlds, thinking they were some special magical abilities.

However, after Li Mo learned all this, he felt a mix of emotions. His luck was as bad as ever. This infinite flow in the magic world seemed to have been popular for fifteen years, and he had only caught the last train.
