Exchange

Yun Xi never even considered going out into the wilderness to hunt monsters and level up to gain free attribute points.

With her current strength, she could wander around the wilderness, but actively hunting monsters would be pure suicide.

Even though she had infinite resurrections, the Rebirth Divine Stone required a price. Wasn't it better to stay alive?

Perhaps, besides the twenty days of closed beta testing, she could try studying on Blue Star?

A rumble from her stomach brought Yun Xi back to reality.

Given that eating in the Godfall Continent only offered coarse wheat cakes and dark bread, which were not only unappetizing but also cost money, Yun Xi decided to log off and return to Blue Star.

After a simple meal, Yun Xi also topped up her account with today's 648 yuan, adding 641.52 Copper Coins to her system account.

Yun Xi's current Copper Coin balance was 651.42 + 9.99 [Main Quest 1 Reward] + 99.9 [Main Quest 2 Reward] + 641.52 = 1402.83.

That's right, whether it was Copper Coins from system rewards or those she recharged herself, all currency entering the system account would automatically have one percent deducted.

Glancing at the time, it was noon in the game, which was midnight on Blue Star.

From noon on Blue Star until now, Yun Xi hadn't rested for a moment. Now that she had eaten, her brain was even more drowsy.

She didn't force herself any longer. After washing up and changing into her pajamas, she buried herself in sleep.

Yun Xi woke up early, ate an egg, and then checked her phone for news about "Godfall Continent."

After yesterday's events, all the players in Godfall Continent had 'disappeared,' or rather, the officials had completely blocked any news related to the 'truth of Godfall Continent.'

All ordinary people thought it was just a game.

Even Yun Xi's biological parents in this life hadn't replied to her, likely having ignored matters related to it.

Flipping through her phone carefully, she was very surprised to find that Gu Shian had actually sent her a text message earlier.

[Yun Xi, it's best to register an account and log in for this game. I won't harm you.]

Below it was an image, which was the game icon for Godfall Continent.

Gu Shian had sent her this message before the server opened yesterday, but Yun Xi had been too preoccupied with Yu Jinxiang and Tu Jiaojiao to notice his text.

Gu Shian's message contained a lot of information.

Information 1: Sending this message before the server opened meant that he had likely been reborn.

Information 2: In this timeline, Yun Xi was his recently abandoned fiancée, yet he was still willing to give her a kind reminder. Perhaps their future relationship would be good?

Not to mention anything else, even before Yun Xi's own rebirth, she and Gu Shian were good comrades-in-arms.

With a plan forming in her mind, Yun Xi silently categorized Gu Shian in the same way she did Yu Jinxiang and Tu Jiaojiao.

[Gu Shian, I've logged into the game. Thank you for the reminder.] Yun Xi sent him a reply, attaching her in-game ID.

He didn't reply, but Yun Xi didn't mind. Gu Shian probably hadn't logged off yet.

Closing her phone, Yun Xi didn't rush to log into Godfall Continent. She directly sat cross-legged on the living room carpet and attempted to learn the Light Control Technique.

She needed to confirm whether Blue Star could be used to learn magic at this stage, so she could better plan the upcoming month.

To Yun Xi's delight, the Inheritance Crystal had already bound itself to her, and she could open it on Blue Star to view its contents, which naturally included the spell patterns of the Light Control Technique.

She could also mobilize the Spiritual Energy within her body. However, unlike in Godfall Continent, Blue Star currently had no Spiritual Energy. After exhausting her own Spiritual Energy, she would have to log into Godfall Continent to replenish it.

This was indeed a problem, but it was also very simple to solve: absorbing the Spiritual Energy from Spirit Crystals could replenish her consumption.

Spirit Crystals were the common currency of Godfall Continent, such as Yun Xi's Red Crystal.

Yun Xi directly opened the system panel. She had previously recharged 10,200 Red Crystals to obtain the system's soul protection. After deducting the handling fee, she had 98 Red Crystals left in her system account.

Within the system account, the currency system could be exchanged downwards but not upwards.

This meant that in the system account, one Red Crystal could be exchanged for one hundred Purple Crystals, but Purple Crystals could not be exchanged for Red Crystals.

Her current total system account balance was 98 Red Crystals - ... - 1402.83 Copper Coins.

Without hesitation, Yun Xi directly chose to exchange one Red Crystal downwards.

Although Red Crystals were extremely precious, equivalent to a year of the system's soul protection, Yun Xi couldn't afford to be stingy now. For her at this moment, improving her strength as quickly as possible was the most important thing.

After a series of operations, Yun Xi's currency balance became—97 Red Crystals - 99 Purple Crystals - 99 Blue Crystals - 99 Green Crystals - 100 White Crystals - 0 Gold Coins - 0 Silver Coins - 1402.83 Copper Coins.

By consuming just one Red Crystal, she now possessed a variety of colored crystals.

Among them, White Crystals contained 100 points of Spiritual Energy, and one hundred White Crystals would be enough for her to use for a period of time.

Of course, since she could log into Godfall Continent to recover Spiritual Energy during the ten days of closed beta testing, Yun Xi wouldn't waste White Crystals during this period.

Upon logging back in, the morning on Blue Star corresponded to the nightfall in Godfall Continent.

As soon as she opened her eyes, Yun Xi realized something was wrong because there was... no light before her.

The small wooden house had windows. Last night, the bonfire outside had illuminated almost the entire room.

But now, it was pitch black outside the window.

Although Yun Xi was not familiar with the Shuyu Plains, 'night must have firelight' was common knowledge in Godfall Continent.

If the spiritual flames in a village or town center were extinguished, it would mean...

Yun Xi shuddered at the thought.

Just as she was about to click to go offline for safety, the fire suddenly flared up again, and a slight argument could be heard from outside the door.

"Hada, didn't I tell you to replenish the campfire fuel promptly? Where were you just now?"

"Father, I really didn't do it on purpose. Just now, the flames suddenly burned faster, and I couldn't react in time."

"Suddenly burned faster?"

"Father, the spiritual flame just went out for a moment. It shouldn't be a problem, right? Grandpa is so powerful, he definitely won't..."

The young man's voice gradually lowered, a sense of despair slowly creeping in.

"You'd better pray it's fine." The middle-aged man's voice carried a tone of disappointment.

"I'll go find your grandfather. You stay here and guard. Remember, you absolutely cannot let the spiritual flame go out again!"

Yun Xi fell silent for a moment.

From the conversation between the father and son, she could deduce that a slightly higher-level strange creature had definitely approached the village recently, otherwise the spiritual flame wouldn't have suddenly accelerated its burning rate. As for the 'grandfather' mentioned by the middle-aged man, he was likely the village chief, the most powerful person there.
