Hearing this, both Hong and Thunder God focused all their attention on Luo Fan.
[Mission: Perform the first eleven forms of the Ninety-Nine Thunder Blade ten times. Reward: +1 proficiency to the first eleven forms of the Ninety-Nine Thunder Blade]
Luo Fan took a deep breath and began to demonstrate the first eleven forms of the Ninety-Nine Thunder Blade.
The speed at which he performed the secret technique was not fast, in fact, it was even somewhat slow.
This was mainly to allow Hong and Thunder God to see more clearly.
Because his proficiency had already reached perfection…
When Luo Fan performed the first eleven forms of the Nine-Nine Thunder Blade now, he could already do so with complete ease.
He performed them ten full times.
However, even though his movements were slow, performing them ten times still took less than ten minutes.
At this moment, Hong and Thunder God were watching with rapt attention.
Especially Thunder God, his eyes were filled with excitement.
He kept muttering to himself in a low voice:
"Wrong, wrong... it turns out it should be like this!"
Hong's reaction was the same, his eyes were incomparably bright at this moment.
Soon, after completing the ten demonstrations, Luo Fan stored the battle blade back into the system space.
His proficiency had also increased by one point.
This also showed just how terrifying Luo Fan's improved comprehension had become.
Just by performing the Ninety-Nine Thunder Blade ten times, he had gained one point of proficiency as a reward.
Moreover, aside from the mission reward, if Luo Fan practiced dozens more times, he could also raise his proficiency further on his own.
This was also the reason why, in just a few days, he had raised the proficiency of the tenth and eleventh forms to perfection.
Although Luo Fan had already finished his demonstration.
At this moment, Hong and Thunder God were still immersed in their own thoughts.
Luo Fan did not disturb them and simply continued practicing on the side.
After a while, Hong was the first to come back to his senses.
Although the correct force-exertion method from the universe had also given Hong some insights.
This inspiration was ultimately not as great as what Thunder God had gained.
Seeing this, Luo Fan, after completing the required ten demonstrations for the mission, also stopped.
The two of them moved aside and sat down, speaking in low voices.
"Do you plan to make your improved secret technique publicly available for sale?"
Hearing this, Luo Fan didn't hesitate and nodded.
"Yes, I do have that idea."
As for the matter of improving Earthlings' strength, Luo Fan agreed with it as well.
Hearing this, Hong nodded, a trace of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.
"In that case, I'll give you two options."
"First, you can place the secret technique on the platforms of multiple forces, just like my Doomsday or Thunder God's Ninefold Thunder Blade."
"At that time, each faction will give you a share."
"Because your secret technique has a very high force-exertion level, and since you've also reached the Planetary level..."
"Oh, Planetary level is the realm above Warlord, you should already know that, right?"
At these words, Luo Fan nodded.
Hong saw Luo Fan nod and wasn't surprised. He continued speaking.
"The profit share will be about fifty percent."
"As for the half-price purchases by the major factions, that portion will be deducted from their shares."
"With your secret technique, compared with the current ones, it should be worth over a trillion."
"However, there won't be many who can afford that."
"So, I recommend pricing it at five hundred billion."
Hearing this, Luo Fan did not respond, but instead asked:
"And the second option?"
To him now, Earth's money was less useful than toilet paper.
At the very least, toilet paper was softer.
"The second option is to sell the secret technique directly to the Extreme Martial Hall and the Thunder and Lightning Martial Hall."
"Thunder God and I will give you things that don't exist on Earth, or extremely rare consumables and one-time items as compensation."
Hearing this, Luo Fan replied without hesitation.
"I choose the second option."
"But, can I pass the secret technique on to others?"
"You can. Ten slots should be enough, right?"
Luo Fan nodded, agreeing to this arrangement.
After all, Hong possessed certain things that Earth's money could never buy.
Those were far more useful than any amount of Earth's money.
What did Luo Fan need Earth's money for?
To lie on it and sleep?
Even now, he could already do that.
So, he chose the second option.
Hong wasn't surprised either.
He tapped on a black armguard on his wrist, and a three-dimensional virtual projection appeared before Luo Fan.
From top to bottom, there were many items.
Including Spirits of Grass and Wood, the Black God Set, and three types of fighter jets.
Each was marked with a price.
The unit was star.
"Star is just a unit I set myself."
"For you, I'll give you a quota of 100 stars. Take a look for yourself."
A hundred stars was equivalent to dozens of Spirits of Grass and Wood, or five Wood-Ya Crystals.
In the original story, Hong's purchase price for Wood-Ya Crystals from Luo Feng was twenty stars each.
From the pricing, two stars for a King-level fighter jet, one star for a portion of Dragon's Blood, one star was roughly worth about one hundred billion Huaxia coins.
Of course, this couldn't truly be converted.
Looking at the items listed, Luo Fan curiously asked:
"Master, do you buy Spirits of Grass and Wood?"
Hearing this, Hong was slightly surprised, but nodded.
"The price for each Spirit of Grass and Wood is different. However many you have, I'll take them all."
Luo Fan didn't immediately take out the Spirit of Grass and Wood.
Instead, he carefully looked through the exchange list.
1. Dragon's Blood: 1 star
2. Black God Set: 5 stars (7 stars if bought by someone above the Wargod level)
3. Fighter Jets: King-class 2 stars, Universe-class 15 stars, Primordial-class 60 stars
4. Basics of Spiritual Force Masters: 3 stars
…
33. Tun Tiansuo (Escape Shuttle): 30 stars
…
55. Ancient Civilization Coins (various): 0.5 star
…
67. Ancient Civilization Gravity Room: 90 stars
"Master, I want the Ancient Civilization Gravity Room, Basics of Spiritual Force Masters, a Black God Set, a Tun Tiansuo, one Primordial-class intelligent fighter jet, and those Ancient Civilization coins."
[Mission: Obtain an A-grade Gravity Room, Introduction to Cosmic Spiritual Force Masters, a Black God Battle Suit, a Tun Tiansuo, an A3-class fighter jet, and several alien coins.
Reward: B-grade Gravity Room, Detailed Explanation of Spiritual Force Masters, a Tier-2 Battle Suit, a Tier-4 Spiritual Force Master weapon, a B9-class interstellar warship, 10,000 Qianwu Coins, and 10 Cosmic Coins]
When Luo Fan saw the rewards from the system, his eyes instantly lit up.
He was rich now!
There was even a B9-class interstellar warship!
Every single one of these items was immensely valuable!
Hong explained slowly:
"Normally, the Black God Set costs 5 stars for a Wargod-level warrior. But they'd need to re-enter the Ancient Civilization Ruins to get another piece, then sell it to the Martial Hall at full price."
"That ruin can't be entered by planetary-level warriors, so it ends up costing a lot more."
"I'll count it all as 190 stars. As for those alien coins, I'll just give them to you."
The exchange list's pricing was very different from what things cost in the wider universe.
Although Luo Fan didn't recognize the alien coins, he was sure they were worth far more than Spirits of Grass and Wood, or even Dragon's Blood.
The most expensive item on the list was undoubtedly the Tun Tiansuo (Escape Shuttle).
But since Hong himself couldn't use it, he was likely planning to unload it cheaply on Luo Fan.
As for those alien coins, on Earth they were practically useless, less valuable even than a single Spirit of Grass and Wood.
That was why their price seemed so strange.
