Apocalypse: Infinite Evolution Starts from Attribute Allocation

"Oh, tell me." Wang Ye raised his eyebrows.

He already knew that the Lucky Race was hiding a secret.

The Undead Lord's senses could not be wrong.

The Lucky Race must have something akin to the Immortality Crown, something related to the Immortality Race.

Tribe Leader Hao Aiji took out a large black fragment filled with cracks, formed from countless smaller shards pieced together.

The edges didn't quite match up. Instead, they were held together by the unique law strength of the heavenly path of death.

"Undead bell tower?" Wang Ye instantly understood.

This must be the glazed bell tower that the Lucky Race had mentioned earlier, appearing in a land of anomalies.

After it shattered, many Innate Realm Essence appeared, sparking a scramble among various races.

The Lucky Race had an amusing approach.

Lacking the strength to seize the Innate Realm Essence, they instead aimed to snatch fragments of the bell tower.

And in doing so, they did stumble upon something.

Indeed, their luck held.

Wang Ye could sense the powerful death energy contained within the black fragments.

It felt very similar to the Immortality Monarch!

But it was incomplete, and there was something distinctly different about it.

The fragments contained a powerful willpower!

The Immortality Monarch did not.

To be precise, his willpower might have fused with the divine item, the Immortality Crown.

Wang Ye's eyes flashed with a gleam.

Good stuff!

There were two possibilities.

One, the black fragment, like the Immortality Crown, contained one of the Guardian Gods of the Immortality Race.

But this being was more powerful than the Immortality Monarch, at least stronger than the peak of the strongest expert!

The strong willpower Wang Ye sensed was a fusion of the divine item and the willpower of the Immortality Race.

Or, there was some other hidden mystery!

Suddenly, Wang Ye's heart skipped a beat.

He could feel the fear emanating from the Undead Lord.

Even if it was only contained within the black fragments, just a small amount of pressure and residual willpower was enough to make him feel cornered!

This was very different!

It was a completely different feeling compared to facing the Immortality Monarch!

This thing was truly extraordinary.

Swoosh!

Tribe Leader Hao Aiji put away the black fragments.

He stared intently at Wang Ye.

"So, what kind of clue is this?" Wang Ye scoffed.

Tribe Leader Hao Aiji replied, "I don't know the specifics, but if we could acquire more bell tower fragments, perhaps we'd find some clues."

"That's just a possibility," Wang Ye shook his head. "It might just be an ordinary divine item from the Immortality Race."

Tribe Leader Hao Aiji shook his head, "This is not an ordinary divine item!" He pointed to the red exclamation mark above his head. "Our ancestors told us this must be a sign of good luck!"

"So, we just happened to run into you."

Wang Ye was surprised, "How does that connect?"

Tribe Leader Hao Aiji explained, "Of course, because most of the bell tower fragments were taken by the Golden-Winged Divine Race, but we happen to have the core piece of the divine item."

"If we can put them together, I believe the secret of the land of opportunity will be revealed!"

"This is just your wishful thinking," Wang Ye pointed to the Immortality Monarch. "My Immortality Race follower has not reacted to the divine item fragment."

"If it were truly as you said, how could he remain so calm?"

Tribe Leader Hao Aiji was momentarily stunned.

He glanced at the Immortality Monarch, who was surrounded by a thick aura of death, and indeed, there was no reaction at all.

His confidence in his judgment wavered slightly.

But he would not show it.

"If you don't need it, I could sell it to another member of the Golden-Winged Divine Race," Tribe Leader Hao Aiji suggested. "I'm sure they would be interested."

"Perhaps," Wang Ye said with a smile. "It does have some value, but not much. Once our Golden-Winged Divine Race army arrives, sweeps through the three chaos races, and takes over the entire land of opportunity, these things won't matter anymore."

"So, you're saying that because we want too much, you don't want to cooperate?" Tribe Leader Hao Aiji asked.

"I think we could explore a different form of cooperation," Wang Ye proposed.

"I'm not interested in profit-sharing." Tribe Leader Hao Aiji was blunt.

He wasn't interested in vague promises. He wanted something tangible.

"In that case, how about direct cooperation?" Wang Ye suggested. "We share information and move together, and if we find an opportunity, we each rely on our skills to claim it."

"No." Tribe Leader Hao Aiji refused without hesitation.

Knowing that the Golden-Winged Divine Race army was on its way, fighting for the opportunity would be foolish.

Even with the protection of the Golden-Winged Divine Race, he was afraid that they would turn on them in the end.

It was better to quit while ahead.

"I see." Wang Ye mused. "Let me think about it. 10,000 chaos crystals aren't out of the question."

"Oh?" Tribe Leader Hao Aiji's eyes brightened.

"It's just that I don't have that many right now." Wang Ye spread his hands. "I'd have to wait until I get back to the Great Bliss Divine Domain and ask my father for them."

"This..." Tribe Leader Hao Aiji hesitated.

"What, you don't trust me?" Wang Ye asked with a disdainful smile. "It's fine if you don't want to cooperate, but you cannot question the integrity of the Golden-Winged Divine Race."

"You can go to the Great Bliss Divine Domain and ask around. I am King Jin Jiaodai, and I have always been a man of my word. I value my commitments above all else!"

"I'll consider it," the Tribe Leader Hao Aiji said.

...

Glazed Ice Realm.

The five strongest experts of the Lucky Race stood in a circle.

"What do you think?" Tribe Leader Hao Aiji asked, maintaining a democratic approach.

"I'm just worried that the Golden-Winged Divine Race will take everything for themselves and turn hostile in the blink of an eye," Hao Jia said hesitantly.

"I don't think so," Hao Yong replied. "The Golden-Winged Divine Race cares about their reputation. Besides, the particular Golden-Winged Divine Race member who's willing to cooperate with us doesn't seem to hold much power, at least not at first glance."

"No, he has a very strong background," Tribe Leader Hao Aiji said. "I've never seen a Golden-Winged Divine Race member of the High Dimension Lord possessing wings comparable to a chaos saint treasure."

"And he has the strongest expert as a subordinate. He's not an ordinary member of the Golden-Winged Divine Race."

"But his subordinates are just a regular human and a Spirit race ordinary Supreme level," Hao Yong pondered aloud. "Plus, there's one peak Supreme level undead creature and an Immortality Race strongest expert. Not very impressive."

"They were probably injured in their battle with the three chaos races," Tribe Leader Hao Aiji suggested. "That's why he mentioned reinforcements are coming, but he doesn't want to waste time waiting."

"What do you think, Hao Da?"

"I think it's worth a try," Hao Da said after a moment of thought. "We could gain a decent reward, strengthen our race relationships, and expand our network. There's no downside, and we can retreat anytime if things go south."

"But what if he doesn't have the payment in the end?" Hao Jia expressed concern. "Wouldn't that mean we worked for nothing?"

"Just the divine item that can summon the strongest expert of the Immortality Race is worth more than 10,000 Chaos Crystals," Tribe Leader Hao Aiji replied. "And his wings, which are on par with a chaos saint treasure, must have cost far more than 10,000 chaos crystals."

"There's no need to worry about that. He must be wealthy."

"Moreover, someone of his status in the Golden-Winged Divine Race wouldn't jeopardize their reputation over a mere 10,000 chaos crystals."

King Jin Jiaodai not only has the surname 'Jin,' but has also earned the title of King within the Golden-Winged Divine Race.

"This is our lucky break!"

...

Glazed Cottage.

"You want to work with the Lucky Race?" Saber King Ancient asked.

"It's free combat prowess. Why not?" Wang Ye responded.

"Do you even have 10,000 chaos crystals to pay them?" Saber King Ancient inquired.

Wang Ye grinned. "I don't even have one Chaos Crystal in my pocket."

Saber King Ancient was speechless.

Ling Shu interjected, clearly unable to hold back, "Isn't that lying?"

"How could it be?" Wang Ye shook his head. "I don't have it now, but that doesn't mean I won't have it later. Once we're out of the land of opportunity, who knows? I might have it by then, and I can pay them off. It's just like taking a loan."

"But what if we don't obtain the opportunity?" Ling Shu asked.

"Then it's obviously because they brought me bad luck. I'd have to settle the score with them!" Wang Ye said with a serious face, then his tone changed. "Anyway, it was King Golden-Horned who made the promise to them. What does that have to do with me, Wang Ye?"

Ling Shu was left speechless.

Wang Ye chuckled. "Besides, with the Lucky Race joining us, we now have six strongest experts."

"Their combat prowess might not be top-tier, but at least they're a decent small force. We won't need to worry much when facing other high-dimensional races."

"The only ones who could pose a real threat to us are the Golden-Winged Divine Race and the three chaos races."

"We've pretty much secured our ticket to compete for the land of opportunity."

"But they're still discussing it. I don't know if they'll agree," Saber King Ancient remarked.

"They will." Wang Ye smiled confidently. "They still have the fragments of the bell tower, the core component of a divine item. It's incredibly valuable. They won't just give it up and leave. They wouldn't be able to bear it."

"But they could sell it to other races?" Ling Shu suggested.

Wang Ye laughed and said, "Only the Golden-Winged Divine Race and the three chaos races would be qualified to buy it. It's not that easy to sell."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Besides, unverified information like this doesn't fetch much."

"Not to mention 1,000 chaos crystals, even 100 chaos crystals would be difficult to get."

"They think they're fooling me into being a sucker."

Ling Shu nodded in understanding.

No wonder the Spiritual Empress wanted her to learn more from Wang Ye.

Was he cunning? Shameless?

"It's the ability to play a bad hand well." Ling Shu realized.

Anyone could play well with a good hand.

Like the Golden-Winged Divine Race, they have enough power to crush anyone in their path.

But Wang Ye, who started with nothing, was still able to gradually gain a foothold in the vast Primitive Cosmic Sea.

Now, he even had a chance to seize the opportunity in the land of opportunity.

That was true ability.

And that was exactly what the Spirit race needed.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Wang Ye winked at Ling Shu.

Swoosh! Ling Shu turned her head away awkwardly. "Nothing."

She then disappeared in a flash.

Wang Ye glanced at Saber King Ancient, who looked equally baffled.

"I hope the Lucky Race brings us good fortune," Wang Ye said with a smile to Saber King Ancient. "This is our first battle in the Primitive Cosmic Sea, and we must make a resounding statement!"

"To prove the strength of the humans from the origin cosmic!"

...

It didn't take long.

The Lucky Race didn't hesitate much and soon gave their answer.

They agreed to cooperate!

However, they stated they would only help within their capabilities and would withdraw immediately if they encountered a fatal danger.

Wang Ye accepted the terms.

10,000 chaos crystals for the service of the five strongest members of the Lucky Race and the rights to 33 Supreme levels.

It was a hefty price.

"But at least, for now, it was free, wasn't it?"

What happens after was a matter for the future.

And besides expanding their combat prowess, they also obtained something the Lucky Race might not even realize the value of themselves...

A core fragment of the undead bell tower!
