Son of Nature: "Then I'll send you five more?"

Son of Nature: "As for payment, just send me one after you finish making the steel armor."

Son of Nature: "There's no need to load it with too many weapons. I'm only using it for my collection, after all."

Richest Man in the Lighthouse: "OK!"

Tony Stark said nonchalantly.

"Ding, group member Son of Nature sent an exclusive Red Packet."

"Ding, group member Richest Man in the Lighthouse claimed your Red Packet."

Son of Nature: "I compressed the Spirit Energy into beads and placed a protective membrane around them. If you want to use one, just eat it."

Son of Nature: "For ordinary people, one bead should be enough. There's quite a lot of Spirit Energy inside, and digesting it requires a great deal of time."

Since Spirit Energy was, in a sense, also part of nature, he had a certain degree of control over it. For Bai Xuan, gathering it into clusters of Spirit Energy or even compressing it into Spirit Energy Beads was not difficult.

After all, he might trade with other Chat Group members in the future. Since it was trade, he naturally had to prepare suitable goods.

Spirit Energy Beads were the easiest thing he could offer at the moment.

They were effective for all the current Chat Group members. They could repair the body, prolong life, and strengthen one's physique.

Richest Man in the Lighthouse: "OK!"

Ordinary Group Owner: "@Son of Nature, you can actually compress Spirit Energy into beads?! Wouldn't that require extremely high cultivation even in a xianxia novel?"

Ordinary Group Owner: "This is an artificial version of a Spirit Stone!"

Bai Xuan's world had only recently undergone a Reiki Revival, yet he already possessed such powerful strength?

Son of Nature: "Spirit Stones? I really hadn't noticed until you mentioned it. Fundamentally, they're both things formed from condensed Spirit Energy. The only differences are the amount of Spirit Energy and the quantity of impurities."

Son of Nature: "The Spirit Energy Beads I condensed should contain only Spirit Energy itself, without impurities. If converted into Spirit Stones, they would probably be comparable to Top-Grade Spirit Stones, though the amount of Spirit Energy they contain definitely isn't nearly as vast."

He used [Nature Authority] to gather and compress "Spirit Energy." Unless the essence of "impurities" was also Spirit Energy, they could not possibly appear within it.

"Ding, group member Son of Nature sent nine Red Packets."

Son of Nature: "@all members, each Red Packet contains three Spirit Energy Beads."

Son of Nature: "Although your strengths differ, the gentle power of Spirit Energy should be useful to all of you to some extent."

Son of Nature: "Especially the group owner and Daigo. You two are the weakest, so Spirit Energy Beads will be most effective for you."

Son of Nature: "Headache.jpg"

Son of Nature: "I suddenly remembered that the group owner is a Spirit Energy Insulator. Although I placed a membrane around the Spirit Energy Beads to ensure you can absorb as much Spirit Energy as possible, it's hard to guarantee that for a Spirit Energy Insulator."

Son of Nature: "Also, @Uchiha Dance King, as far as I know, Spirit Energy should nourish the soul as well. Whether that's true or not, Madara can try it. It should have some effect."

Ordinary Group Owner: "I don't know whether it'll work, but once I become a big shot someday, I'll definitely look after you, Bai Xuan."

Ordinary Group Owner: "Touched.jpg"

"Ding, group owner Ordinary Group Owner snatched your Red Packet."

Boil Daigo Into Soup: "Plus one."

"Ding, group member Boil Daigo Into Soup snatched your Red Packet."

Worst Spirit: "Thanks."

"Ding, group member Worst Spirit snatched your Red Packet."

Be My Son: "Gurararara, I'm truly growing more and more impressed with you, Bai Xuan. Are you interested in becoming my son?"

"Ding, group member Be My Son snatched your Red Packet."

Uchiha Dance King: "I'll remember this favor."

"Ding, group member Uchiha Dance King snatched your Red Packet."

Golden Flash: "Spirit Energy has an extremely strong ability to nourish the body? Then it should be quite useful for Kushina."

"Ding, group member Golden Flash snatched your Red Packet."

That Is How It Is Meow: "Meowth, Jessie, and James can each have one, meow."

"Ding, group member That Is How It Is Meow snatched your Red Packet."

Dongfang Bubai: "I owe another favor."

"Ding, group member Dongfang Bubai snatched your Red Packet."

Glory of the Northern God: "Woof woof woof.jpg"

At that point, all nine Red Packets had been snatched up.

Boil Daigo Into Soup: "Every one of you said something before claiming a Red Packet. I'm embarrassed being the only one who just said 'plus one.'"

Ordinary Group Owner: "@Richest Man in the Lighthouse, I'll send you what you're about to encounter first."

Ordinary Group Owner: "You need to finish building the steel armor as soon as possible."

"Ding, the group owner sent a Memory Copy."

An hour later, Tony had finished watching the entire Memory Copy of Iron Man 1, his eyes filled with complexity and disbelief.

He had never expected to be betrayed by Obadiah, the man he had regarded as an uncle. He had given Obadiah more than enough trust, even handing over most of the power of Stark Industries to him. Obadiah had also made enormous profits by selling weapons.

Even so, he had still been unsatisfied. He had even wanted to kill Tony and become the master of Stark Industries.

Heh.

If he had not already conceived the prototype of the steel armor in his mind and successfully built it back then, he would probably have died at the hands of those mercenaries.

Worst Spirit: "Setting the plot aside, the armor itself is mediocre."

Worst Spirit: "No wonder Bai Xuan only wanted it for his collection instead of using it as a weapon."

Judging by the strength displayed in the story, it was not even as strong as those people from the AST Agency. Well, actually, they were about the same. Both could be dealt with effortlessly.

Be My Son: "Its technology is comparable to Germa 66's, but it truly is too weak. It can't even withstand one of my punches without the Tremor-Tremor Fruit's enhancement."

Uchiha Dance King: "Useless external power."

That Is How It Is Meow: "It's pretty interesting, meow, but it's not quite enough for catching Elves. It could be modified, meow."

That Is How It Is Meow: "Turn it into a big robot, meow."

Richest Man in the Lighthouse: "???"

Richest Man in the Lighthouse: "This is only the earliest version of the Iron Mecha. Of course it's weak."

Richest Man in the Lighthouse: "But as long as I optimize it a little and replace some parts and materials, its power will increase severalfold."

Richest Man in the Lighthouse: "Don't underestimate the power of technology!"

A vein popped on Tony's forehead. And you people from comics had the nerve to talk? Was cheating in anime on the same level as cheating in reality?
