Mystery Descends: My Exchanges Are Not Equal

The continuous promotion of the World Guardian put Wang Teng in a great mood.

Now, his Comprehensive Combat Power has reached 21,900 points.

He's another step closer to the goal of 30,000 combat power.

Speaking of which, this Ghost King of the Moon Exploration Ancient Town is the second true Profound Tier powerhouse he has killed!

Of course, without his many methods to restrain the Ghost King, a bloody battle would have been inevitable.

After all, their combat power was quite equivalent, and Wang Teng was even at a slight disadvantage.

However, the Ghost King was just a Low-grade Foundation Establishment.

Encountering a Middle-grade Foundation Establishment would be somewhat terrifying.

By the way, I wonder what kind of mysterious entity is behind this Ghost King?

To be able to control a low-grade Foundation Establishment Ghost King must be extremely terrifying, perhaps a Middle-grade Foundation Establishment powerhouse.

Wang Teng's heart tightened, thinking it was not wise to linger here.

Right now, he doesn't have the confidence to confront a Middle-grade Foundation Establishment being.

He wondered if the mysterious figure behind the Ghost King would arrive in time.

He'd better hurry and leave.

This Moon Exploration Ancient Town is becoming increasingly eerie.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly went forward to collect his spoils of war.

A moment later, he had finished collecting them.

A Gold-level Blind Box, a peculiar placement Token, and a grindstone-sized piece of blood-red wood.

He glanced at the blood-red wood.

[Ghost King Soul Wood: Red Mythical-level Item, with special uses.]

This information left Wang Teng confused.

However, a Red Mythical-level Item is generally a precious treasure.

Wang Teng no longer hesitated and contentedly stored it in his Storage Space.

Then, he hurried back to the plaza.

There are still many spoils of war waiting for him to collect there.

Returning to the plaza, he saw the ground littered with blood-red wood pieces.

Those blood-red wood pieces were left by the howling Evil Ghosts, each about three inches long, looking like aged old wood.

He was always curious about what these wood pieces were.

During the battle with the Evil Ghosts earlier, there was no spare moment.

At this moment, he went up to pick up a piece of blood-red wood to examine it.

[Soul Wood: High-level resource, can be used for Artifact Refining, also for constructing various buildings.]

Not bad! Not bad!

So these are high-level resources!

This time the information even listed the resource's uses.

Clearly, they are material resources with a wide range of applications, naturally valuable.

Immediately, Wang Teng began collecting.

In no time, he finished collecting, obtaining about a thousand pieces of Soul Wood.

It was indeed a bountiful harvest!

Wang Teng was very satisfied.

Speaking of which, on this trip to the ancient town, he not only harvested a large batch of Soul Wood resources, but his Level and Reputation Value also significantly increased.

Currently, his Level is 17 at 14%, and his Reputation Value is 990 points.

The progress of the World Guardian has also reached Level 6 at 6%.

Combat Power soared to 21,900 points.

Acquired the B-level Talent Dark Harvest.

The overall strength has undergone an all-round upgrade.

"Finally done! Next, I'll gather some Spiritual Spring Water, then I should head back."

Wang Teng murmured to himself and walked towards the Spiritual Eye Spring ahead.

This ancient town under the gray mist was eerie and cold.

Even though the Ghost King and Evil Ghosts have all been eliminated, Wang Teng remains cautious.

Because he knows there's a stronger entity behind the Ghost King.

Wang Teng pondered as he moved toward the Spiritual Eye Spring.

Soon, he reached the side of the well and took out his dark green small bottle—the Heaven-Controlling Bottle, preparing to collect the Spiritual Eye Spring Water.

The Spiritual Eye Spring can only be constructed with authorization from a Level 5 World.

Such as the Celestial Court World, which doesn't have the permissions to construct it yet.

And the Spiritual Eye Spring draws in Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi, producing a set amount of Spiritual Spring Water daily.

Roughly, 100 units of Spiritual Spring Water are produced daily.

Now, with the Spiritual Eye Spring long unattended, the water remained filled to about 500 units of Spiritual Spring Water.

Once the Spiritual Eye Spring water reaches 500 units, it automatically stops producing to prevent overflow.

500 units of Spiritual Spring Water is not a trivial amount.

However, the Heaven-Controlling Bottle in Wang Teng's hand, although small, could accommodate vast volumes.

Even a billion units of Spiritual Spring Water could be stored in it.

At once, he was about to start collecting water.

"Hmm?! Right, didn't I obtain a placement Token?"

At this moment, Wang Teng seemed to recall something and hurriedly took out a shimmering, golden Token from the Storage Space.

It was released after the Ghost King of the Moon Exploration Ancient Town was killed.

[Spiritual Eye Spring Placement Token: Red Mythical-level Item, using this token grants one-time permission to place a "Spiritual Eye Spring."]

[Note: The move distance cannot exceed a hundred miles.]

Not bad! Not bad!

This turns out to be a permission token to relocate the Spiritual Eye Spring.

It makes sense, as the Ghost King was the Realm Master of the Moon Exploration World Dungeon and had control over all public buildings in the Moon Exploration Ancient Town.

Currently, this Moon Exploration World Dungeon is reduced to the size of the ancient town, with only one Spiritual Eye Spring and an intact teleportation array among public buildings, the rest being destroyed.

This time, killing the Ghost King and dropping a permission token wasn't particularly unexpected.

Oh, if he uses the placement Token, relocating the Spiritual Eye Spring to within his power's range, wouldn't it become a Celestial Court resource?!

Thinking of this, Wang Teng was overjoyed and found it feasible.

But the next second, he realized something.
