Survival for All: I can deconstruct projections and synthesize everything.

At seven o'clock on the morning of the ninth day, before dawn in the misty world, Lin Xiao was awakened by a commotion outside.

Lin Xiao rubbed her head, got out of bed, pushed open the door, and looked at the bustling sounds outside.

On the street outside, there were more than a dozen stalls belonging to the Grass Spirit Clan.

Lin Xiao scratched his head as he watched this scene. It was obvious that this was aimed at him, after all...

Even the Grass Spirit Clan can't leave the barrier, isn't it obvious who these stalls are for...?

Lin Xiao felt like she had a lot of complaints she wanted to vent, but she couldn't get them out.

This thing looks like something Sheng made; she'll probably appear soon.

"Hey! Xiao! You're awake. How are you? This is our Grass Spirit Clan's market. Want me to show you around? Oh dear, you came too late yesterday. I was planning to show you around the market anyway, oh dear..."

Lin Xiao watched Sheng talking to himself, speechless.

However, Lin Xiao was indeed curious about what special products the Grass Spirit Clan had, since he had actually seen some first and second-tier items from a distance.

Lin Xiao took two steps forward and arrived at the first stall, looking at the three grass products displayed there.

【Binding Rope, Tier 2. Forcibly binds monsters of Tier 2 and below for 5 seconds. After 5 seconds, the rope will disappear.】

[Rain-Praying Grass Stem, Tier 2: Can induce a light rain in an area of ​​10,000 meters by 10,000 meters, lasting for five minutes.]

【Mist-Dispelling Grass Ball, Tier 1: When held in hand, it automatically dispels mist within a one-meter radius】

Looking at these things, Lin Xiao had only one thought in his mind: "What are all these things?"

The fog system indicates these are tier 2 items, but judging from their effects, one can only bind the ghost for 5 seconds, while the other can cause a light rain. The area affected is quite large, but a five-minute rain probably won't even dampen the ground...

The last Tier 1 item can only dispel the fog within a meter. What's the use of that meter? It's likely that other fog creatures won't even be able to spot you when they suddenly appear.

Lin Xiao looked at the other stalls and found that they were all things that were outstanding in a certain aspect, but extremely useless.

"Sheng, don't you have any good stuff here?"

"What's wrong with these things...?"

Upon hearing Lin Xiao's question, Sheng immediately became anxious, but the members of the Grass Spirit Clan who were setting up stalls lowered their heads somewhat embarrassed.

Upon seeing this, Sheng lowered his voice.

Then, Lin Xiao saw Sheng wink at someone, and that person immediately ran into a house and brought someone out.

"Third tier?"

Lin Xiao looked at the grass spirit clan member and saw that he had also taken out two items made of grass.

[Leaf of Judgment, Tier 3. When wielding it, one can see through the lies told by creatures below Tier 3, and when attacking a lying creature, damage is increased by 10%.]

"Hey, this is great stuff! It can tell if someone is lying to you!"

[Life Grass Seed, Tier 3. When planted in the ground, it can continuously supply life force to surrounding plants, even reviving withered and dead plants.]

"Hey, what a pity, this Life Grass Seed only works on plants."

Lin Xiao looked at the Life Grass Seed's ability; the ability to bring the dead back to life was already an extremely abnormal ability, but the limitation of being confined to plants somewhat affected its effectiveness.

"Sheng, I'll take both of these. Can you calculate how many source crystals they cost?"

Sheng awkwardly stuck out a finger.

"Ten thousand? That's acceptable. After all, third-tier items sold by spirit merchants are 5000 source crystals each if there are no flyers."

"what?"

"No, no, wait a minute, Xiao! I meant one thousand Origin Crystals!"

Lin Xiao's hand, which was about to take out the Source Crystal, suddenly froze, and she looked at Sheng in disbelief.

"Are you sure you didn't misread it? It's one thousand?"

"Yes, it's one thousand!"

Hearing this, Lin Xiao gave Sheng another deep look, then changed his tone and asked, "Have you thought it through? Are you sure it's one thousand source crystals, and not ten thousand?"

Hearing Lin Xiao's question, Sheng became conflicted. Even the members of the Grass Spirit Clan looked at Sheng with a strange expression, as if hoping that Sheng would say more.

After all, their clan is truly lacking in source crystals, especially the Grand Elder, who cannot afford to delay any longer.

Dan Sheng glanced at her clansmen, apologetic on her face, then looked at Lin Xiao with utmost seriousness and said, "Yes, that's right, it's one thousand source crystals!"

"Okay, in that case..."

As Lin Xiao spoke, he took out the source crystal belonging to the thousand points and handed it to Sheng.

Sheng looked at the source crystal in her hand, her eyes sparkling, but she didn't dare to look at her clansmen.

She also knew that as long as she mentioned the number 10,000, Lin Xiao would take it out.

Moreover, that's 10,000 Source Crystals! 10,000 Source Crystals is enough to increase the strength of their entire Grass Spirit Clan several times over, and may even extend the life of the Great Elder by another hundred years.

But Sheng's intuition told him that if she really said the number 10,000, she would regret it very much, and it would even affect the survival of the Grass Spirit Clan.

"But this reason probably won't convince the tribesmen..."

In Sheng's opinion, a thousand source crystals was already a lot more than she had paid.

In her view, it was just a lie detector and a tool that could only be used on plants. Even if it was a third-tier tool, it wasn't worth any source crystals.

The Grass Spirit Clan member who had just taken out two Tier 3 items slowly stood up and came to Sheng's side.

"Sheng, lift your head!"

"Uncle Rui..."

Sheng slowly raised his head and looked into Uncle Rui's serious eyes.

"Sheng, remember one thing: you are the successor to the Grand Elder. Everything you do is for the survival of our clan, so... have confidence in the choices you've made!"

Sheng looked at Uncle Rui with some surprise. There was no blame on his face for her choosing a thousand source crystals; there was only a look of trust in his eyes.

"Go, hand over these thousand Origin Crystals to the Grand Elder. He is now the foundation of our clan's strength!"

Sheng nodded, clutching the thousand source crystals tightly in his arms, and ran towards the Grand Elder's residence.

Lin Xiao looked at Sheng, who had run away, with a strange expression on her face.

"Hello Xiao, my name is Rui. Thank you for taking care of Sheng recently."

As Rui spoke, she bowed to Lin Xiao.

"Uncle Rui, right... I'd like to ask, what are the uses of Source Crystals? Why do you need them so much?"
