Bo Yan's heart pounded as he faced the figures of Demonic Cultivation charging toward him.
Judging by the logic Guide had explained, he seemingly had no need to worry about competing with the cultivators of Gold Power World in wealth values.
Players might not be particularly strong in Monster World.
But in terms of growth potential, or even the Power of Rules they had equipped, their value clearly could not be measured simply through wealth values.
The charging Demonic Cultivation might be able to shatter his skull with a single punch.
But that was overwhelming superiority on a physical level.
Now that they wanted to use the Gold Power Rule to compete with him in the dimension of wealth, the situation was entirely different.
In this dimension, Demonic Cultivation had abandoned direct domination and instead calculated combat strength through wealth values.
As a player, the wealth he carried in his pockets could be considered proof of unlimited assets.
It was also his credential for unlimited resurrection, bound to the entire player system.
And any one of the Life Souls socketed into his Star Meridian Slots stood at a Rule-Level height that no amount of resources could measure.
However great their wealth, they could not compete with the "Player Consortium" over whose bank account had the larger balance.
Doing so was practically looking down on the creator of Monster World in the backstory: Brother Emperor Zhao.
It showed far too little respect for Brother Emperor Zhao's mighty power.
If they truly wanted to measure wealth, a single hair from Brother Emperor Zhao could crush this civilization.
He suspected that even scanning and quantifying through the Gold Power Rule probably could not measure the value of a Life Soul.
It was like trying to weigh an aircraft carrier with a steelyard scale.
