Samsara Paradise: Dream Weaver of Connections.

Lin Yi took the painting handed over by Grayxiu and said nothing. He just put it into his personal space.

"Boy, you're not late, are you?" Just as Lin Yi took out a few bags of snacks from his pocket and handed them to Grayxiu, an ancient voice came from the door of the bar.

"No, I just arrived too." Lin Yi waved to Gu Lao and put the drink list aside, indicating that Gu Lao could order whatever he wanted to drink.

"I'll have a glass of Hell's River. The others don't taste good."

As for Grayshu, Aponia beside her gently took her hand and led her into the room.

Gu Lao took the wine glass handed to him by Alicia and drank it all.

As the wine went down his throat, his brows relaxed and his whole body relaxed.

"Great! This wine is still strong enough." There was a hint of satisfaction in the ancient voice, and then his eyes turned to Lin Yi.

"I won't waste my time talking nonsense. Show me the 'Ancient God Seed' you obtained earlier."

"Seed of the Ancient God?" After hearing the ancient words, Lin Yi searched in his personal space for a while. After a moment, a black seed appeared in his hand.

[Seed of the Ancient God (Special Item)]

Origin: Void, Source of Corruption

Item Effect: ? ? ? (Need to pay 100 Soul Coins for identification)

Apart from knowing the name of the Ancient God Seed, Lin Yi knew nothing about its other effects.

But judging from the appraisal fee of up to 100 soul coins, this is obviously a good thing.

Gu Lao took the Seed of the Ancient God from Lin Yi, stroking a ring on his finger, with a hint of hesitation in his eyes.

This ring is a special equipment he obtained in his early years. It can see the true properties of an item through its seal.

However, the cost of using it is extremely high. Not only will it consume soul crystals, but it will also cause wear and tear on the ring itself.

Unless he encountered real "good stuff", Gu Lao would never use it easily.

After all, the maintenance cost of special equipment is ridiculously high, and even a seventh-level contractor like Gu Lao is rarely willing to pay for it.

"Yes, this is what that guy wants." Gu Lao placed the Seed of the Ancient God in front of his eyes and examined it carefully, confirming the main attributes of the item.

"Gu Lao, what is the use of this prop?" Lin Yi asked directly.

In the Samsara Paradise, the types of props are so vast that even experienced contractors may not be able to recognize all of them.

Gu Lao said with a hint of envy: "You are really lucky this time. This thing is the same as the crystal skull you got before. It is a job transfer item."

Gu Lao let out a long sigh and threw the Seed of Ancient God back to Lin Yi.

"Professional transfer item? Is that possible?" After being enlightened by Gu Lao, Lin Yi instantly understood the value of this item.

"That's right. This is the job transfer item of the ancient god system. Moreover, it is an extremely rare divine item, completely different from those sacrificial job transfer items." Gu Lao nodded, and then began to explain the job transfer situation of the ancient god system to Lin Yi in detail.

Most of the contractors of the ancient gods choose to gain power by believing in a certain ancient god, which is equivalent to a sacrifice.

This type of contractor is similar to the contractor in the Sanctuary Paradise, and gains powerful abilities by serving the gods.

However, the mental state of most ancient gods is unstable, and can even be said to be crazy, which makes the sacrifice of the ancient gods a high-risk profession.

Many of the contractors of the ancient gods did not die in battles with their enemies, but were devoured as sacrifices by the gods they believed in.

This high risk causes most contractors to stay away from the ancient god system's job transfer items.

But it must be said that the combat effectiveness after transferring to the ancient god system is indeed very strong. This has also attracted many contractors to find ways to circumvent the belief in ancient gods and thus obtain the power of ancient gods.

Later, a genius from the Sanctuary Paradise invented a ritual that could steal a trace of the Ancient God's power by consuming certain items.

However, this ritual is not without cost - the user will be hunted down by the ancient gods.

This behavior is equivalent to someone using chopsticks to pick up food from your bowl. Anyone would not be able to tolerate such a thing.

But for the contractors, this ritual is much safer than directly worshipping the ancient gods.

Especially the high-level contractors, they are more inclined to compete with the ancient gods for power rather than entrust their fate to the mercy of the gods.

After all, being strong is the only way. What if the god you believe in abandons you one day?

The most fundamental reason why Gu Dao called Lin Yi's Ancient God Seed a "good thing" was that the ancient god to whom this seed belonged - Tyne Zakaria - had fallen.

This means that any contractor who uses this seed to steal the power of Tyne Zakaria will not be hunted down by the Ancient Gods.

Therefore, Lin Yi's job-changing item will definitely sell for a high price. The only regret is that Tyne Zakaria's power characteristics are relatively mediocre, and there is a far cry from the top powers such as mind and darkness.

However, considering that Tyne Zakaria has fallen, this is not unacceptable to many contractors.

The more powerful the power characteristic is, the more ancient gods there are in the area, and the more difficult it is to fight for power. It is not an easy task to snatch power from those guys.

Although Tyne Zakaria's power characteristics are relatively weak, if it can be developed to the extreme, it may not be inferior to those with a higher starting point.

In the Paradise of Reincarnation, the strength of power is not absolute; the key lies in how the user uses it.

After listening to the ancient explanation, Lin Yi stroked the Seed of Ancient God in his hand. The dark lines glowed under the dim light of the bar.

Gu Lao chuckled and patted Lin Yi on the shoulder: "You are lucky, kid. However, the power of the ancient gods is no joke. Even if the ancient god to whom this ancient god seed belongs has fallen, no one can guarantee that his power will not plant any hidden dangers in your body. The ancient gods represent weirdness, uncontrollability, and even madness. No one can say whether this thing is a blessing or a curse."

Lin Yi nodded. Of course he understood what Gu Lao meant.

The power of the ancient gods is indeed strong, and can even allow people to reach great heights overnight, but the risks that come with it are equally deadly.

In the Paradise of Samsara, any power gained comes at a price.

"But..." Gu Lao changed the subject, "I do know a few contractors who are interested in the ancient god system. They might be interested in this thing."

Lin Yi raised his eyes to look at Gu Lao and asked directly: "Gu Lao, how much do you think this thing can be sold for?"

Gu Lao shook his head, with a hint of uncertainty in his tone: "It's hard to say. After all, items like the Ancient God Seed are not normal job transfer items. Even if someone wants to use it to transfer to the Ancient God, they need to go through an extremely complicated ceremony. And that ceremony... is not something that anyone can complete."

"To be honest, this is the first time I've handled something like this, so it's hard to give it an accurate value."

Lin Yi lowered his head thoughtfully, his fingers tapping unconsciously on the surface of the Ancient God's Seed.

He suddenly remembered something, and a hint of curiosity flashed in his eyes: "Guo Di, the ritual you just mentioned..."

Gu Lao waved his hand and interrupted Lin Yi directly, with a warning tone in his voice: "Don't even think about that ceremony, the risk is too great. The reason why those contractors I told you about wanted to change their jobs to become ancient gods is because they failed when they were promoted to a higher level, and they were forced to choose another way. Otherwise, who would be willing to take such a big risk to touch the power of the ancient gods?"

"Okay, I've already sent a message to those guys to come over, and they'll be here soon." Gu Lao said, picking up the wine glass on the table, shaking the amber liquid in the glass, and smiling again on his face, "Now that we're done with business, let's have a drink."

Lin Yi also raised his glass and clinked it lightly with Gu La.

The moment the wine glasses collided, there was a crisp sound, and the two men picked up their glasses and drank them all.

After two glasses of wine, the door of the bar was pushed open again with a slight "creaking" sound, breaking the brief silence.

Two figures walked in from the door, the leader was a burly man with bulging muscles, each muscle containing explosive power.

He carried a huge battle axe on his back, with a few traces of wet blood visible on the axe blade.

Following behind him was a thin man, his face as pale as paper, with a sinister look in his eyes. He was wearing a black robe and looked like a dark wizard.

However, Lin Yi noticed that the auras of the two people were very unstable, and they had obviously suffered some kind of irrecoverable injuries.

"Gu Lao, where are the things?" As soon as the burly man entered the room, his eyes were directly locked on the location of Lin Yi and Gu Lao, and there was a hint of urgency in his tone. In fact, the two belonged to the same small adventure group.

In the previous world, their team fell into an extremely dangerous situation.

Out of the six-person team, only two of them managed to escape.

Although the two successfully returned to the Samsara Paradise, they found that their injuries were extremely serious, even beyond the scope of their authority to resolve.

If they want to completely solve their problems, they must obtain deep treatment permissions.

What's worse is that in their current state, if they continue to enter the world to carry out missions, it would almost be tantamount to seeking their own death.

But without entering the world, they cannot gain access to deep healing.

This dilemma plunged the two into deep despair.

So, they began to frantically search for ancient god-related job-transfer items in the trading market, hoping to achieve a turnaround through this extreme method.

Although the power of the ancient gods is dangerous, it can at least allow them to gain powerful strength in a short period of time, and may even be able to use it to solve their own problems.

For them, this is their last hope.

“The thing is here.” Lin Yi placed the Ancient God’s Seed on the table, but there was a hint of scrutiny in his eyes.

Gu Lao smiled, breaking the brief silence, and introduced: "This is the physician, the holder of the Ancient God Seed. These two are Black Axe and Shadow Crow."

The burly man Black Axe nodded and said, "Name a price. This thing is very important to us."

"Equipment or skill scrolls from the healing, abyssal, or technical categories are all fine, but the quality cannot be too low."

After hearing Lin Yi's answer, Shadow Crow said sinisterly, "This requirement is too vague. What do you mean by the quality cannot be too low? Give us a specific standard, otherwise how can we know what you want."

Black Axe echoed from the side, with a hint of impatience in his tone: "Just tell me what kind of equipment and skill scrolls you want."

Lin Yi was not moved by their attitudes: "For the healing system, at least you need a high-level healing scroll that can instantly heal serious injuries, or equipment that can continuously heal and has a purification effect. The technical system is simpler, it can increase the attack speed, or have skill scrolls or equipment with special attack effects. In general, it cannot be lower than epic quality. The same goes for the abyss system, it cannot be too bad."

After hearing Lin Yi's explanation, Ying Ya's expression instantly darkened, and a trace of anger that was difficult to conceal emerged on his pale face.

"Boy, you have a big appetite." Black Axe gritted his teeth and said, "You really don't want to sell it, right?"

Lin Yi spread his hands and said, "You two, you know the value of this Ancient God Seed. It is a job transfer item for the Ancient God system, and the Ancient God it belonged to is dead. The conditions I offer are already very reasonable."

Gu Lao nodded and said helpfully, "Yes, the doctor's condition is indeed not excessive. If you really want it, then show some sincerity. Otherwise, I believe that there will be other contractors willing to take it over soon."

Seeing what Gu Lao said, Black Axe and Shadow Crow also understood that this item was indeed very popular.

The two looked at each other, a trace of helplessness flashing in their eyes.

They indicated that they needed to discuss privately before making a decision.

The two of them did have a high-quality abyss skill scroll, but the quality of this skill scroll was not low. If they used it to exchange for the ancient god seed, it would undoubtedly be a loss-making deal.

No matter how stupid Shadow Crow is, he would never do such a stupid thing.

The two of them huddled together, whispering, and occasionally glanced at Lin Yi and Gu Lao, as if they were weighing something.

"What do you mean? Do we really have to take out that thing?" Black Axe's voice revealed a strong reluctance. They had fought hard to get that item in the last world. For it, the entire adventure group almost fell into an irretrievable situation.

Now that he had to hand it over easily, Black Axe was naturally unwilling to do so.

For this thing, the entire adventure group was nearly wiped out. Now they have to hand it over so easily. To be honest, Black Axe is really unwilling to do so.

"What else can we do if we don't use this thing? Are we really going to go bankrupt? Besides, you and I both know the side effects of Abyss items, otherwise I would not have chosen the Ancient God system." Shadow Crow's words revealed his determination.

"Okay, now that you've said that, I won't say much."

After the discussion, Shadow Crow walked over to Gu Lao, took out a skill scroll from his arms and handed it to him.

When Gu Lao saw the items that Shadow Crow took out, he first rubbed his eyes and then took a breath.

"The value of this item is far beyond the reach of epic items. The Seed of the Ancient God you just took out is merely an important item in the job transfer ceremony. If you want to exchange it for this scroll, you must pay the difference." Shadow Crow stared into Lin Yi's eyes. He knew in his heart that since Lin Yi could take out the Seed of the Ancient God who had died, it meant that the Ancient God was very likely to have fallen into Lin Yi's hands.

In this case, why not take this opportunity to use this skill scroll to exchange for more resources related to the ancient gods.

Lin Yi's eyes fell on the scroll on the table. When his gaze swept over the effects on the skill scroll, a huge wave of emotion suddenly rose in his heart.

Now there was only one thought in his mind - he must get this scroll!

[The Fetal Movement of the Void Nest], [Lies of a Thousand Maws], [Whispers of the Ancient Gods].

After taking out all three items related to the Ancient Gods, Lin Yi looked at Shadow Crow: "Two Ancient Gods skill scrolls plus an epic staff, is that enough?"

"Not enough." Shadow Crow's answer was crisp and clear.

After hearing Shadow Crow's answer, Lin Yi looked at Gu Lao.

Gu Lao sent a message to Lin Yi through the friend list: "Don't look at me, your offer is indeed low. This scroll is an extremely precious item even among the seventh-level contractors. In order to obtain it, Shadow Crow and Black Axe must have paid a considerable price."

As a seventh-level contractor, Gu Lao could naturally see the quality of [Pure Energy Activation].

This is a Holy Spirit-level Abyss Skill Scroll, and its value far exceeds that of ordinary epic items.

It has to be said that Lin Yi was extremely lucky this time to meet Shadow Crow and Black Axe, two people who were forced into desperate situations.

Otherwise, such good things would never be his turn.

"Can other equipment match it?"

"Okay, but don't fool me with those rubbish equipment." There was a hint of impatience in Shadow Crow's tone, but he did not refuse.

After all, he was also extremely envious of the three ancient god items that Lin Yi had just taken out.

As long as you successfully transfer to the ancient god system, these items can be immediately converted into instant combat power.

Lin Yi nodded, then took out [Eye of the Void], [Bewitching Crown], [Heart of the White Bird] and two dirty boxes from the storage space and placed them on the table one by one.

As a legendary reconnaissance equipment, the value of [Eye of the Void] is not inferior to that of general epic equipment.

Shadow Crow's eyes swept across the items on the table, quickly estimating their value in his mind.

After a moment, he nodded and pushed the skill scroll on the table towards Lin Yi: "Deal."

The deal was done, and Lin Yi pushed the items on the table to Ying Ya. For Lin Yi, this deal was definitely worth the money. (End of this chapter)
