Cao Fengqi's Transcendent Shelter

"The forging blueprints are all too low-level. There are only eight level 7 forging blueprints, all for melee weapons. There are also three level 8 forging blueprints: a sword, a scalpel, and a repeating crossbow."

"It's possible that Spark also obtained forging blueprints similar to the Holy Light Cannon, but they just haven't put them on the trading platform."

Cao Fengqi carefully examined the various items on the Spark Guild's trading platform.

Very rich, a lot.

However, items at level 7 and above are relatively rare.

However, the fact that level 7 weapons and equipment are available for trading on the trading platform proves that the Spark Guild is quite powerful.

There are many more items below level 7. Among level 6 items, there are quite a few healing pills, and even some level 6 pills that can increase attributes.

"This level 6 pill requires a level 7 White Serpent Spirit Grass in exchange, and I don't have any of that."

Overall, the most valuable items on the entire trading platform are those that can increase attributes, followed by souls, which can be traded for most items.

"There are some level 2 and 3 items here that can increase attributes; you can trade some for souls."

Cao Fengqi flipped through the pages and gained some understanding of the Spark Guild's trading platform.

There are many items available, after all, more than two million people can trade on it.

Besides some resources, there was an abundance of other items, such as household goods, bicycles, soul-powered vehicles, and other miscellaneous goods.

Cao Fengqi looked at the souls in his hand: 21 level 6 souls and 7 level 5 souls.

"It's not a small amount; if I absorb it all, it will increase my physique by over a hundred. However, increasing my physique by over a hundred still won't be enough to kill those Wraith Remains. I'd better find or forge a powerful extraordinary weapon."

"At least... some of these souls should be reserved to craft level 7 arrows."

Cao Fengqi muttered to himself, then looked at his mother and sister-in-law beside him, and took out one level 6 soul and seven level 5 souls, giving them to them. "Mom, here, take these souls. If you have nothing to do these next few days, you and your sister-in-law can buy some items that the family needs on the trading platform or in the market."

"Hmm? So many souls? Your souls alone could significantly boost your dad's and the others' extraordinary experience."

Liu Xiuxiu took them and, upon seeing the levels of these souls, exclaimed in surprise.

"You can improve your strength and Transcendent Sequence experience points on your own; we're not counting on you anyway."

Cao Fengqi said to his mother, "Buy more good things, useful things, don't be stingy."

"..."

Hearing this, Cao Jiancheng opened his mouth, somewhat unconvinced, and said, "What do you mean you don't need us? We are superhumans, after all, and quite useful."

"Alright, Dad, stop being rebellious. I don't have time to help you improve right now."

Cao Fengqi smiled and waved to him, "Good luck to you guys."

Even my father isn't as strong as the Xiaotian Dog.

No, the Xiaotian Dog could take on more than a dozen of him.

He's not currently interested in raising his father and sister-in-law; mainly because he doesn't have enough energy left for himself.

Once you have enough souls, you can give them to upgrade.

"..."

Rebellion?

Cao Jiancheng's face darkened upon hearing this. "So you're rebelling against the Heavenly Gang?"

Okay, okay!

"Hmph, we don't need your help, Fengqi. We're already quite capable."

Just then, my sister-in-law came out of the kitchen, smiling broadly, and gestured to them, "Come on, dinner's ready."

"That's right, fortunes change every thirty years, don't underestimate an old man's poverty!"

Cao Jiancheng echoed this, grinned, and walked over.

"..."

Cao Fengqi walked over with a smile.

After having a pleasant meal with his family, he went straight back to his room.

After entering the Lost Land and taking a look around, he shook his head slightly in frustration and withdrew.

There is no way to deal with it!

"Oh right, I almost forgot about Transcendent Source Metal."

Cao Fengqi patted his head, thinking of Source Metal, and immediately took out the Heavenly Mystery Box that had been opened.

A radiant, extraordinary stone came into view.

Cao Fengqi out and picked it up. The entire piece of Transcendent Source Metal was soft and fluffy, as if it had a life of its own.

With a thought, he probed into it with his spirit, and a wondrous sensation came over him. The Transcendent Source Metal slowly connected with his spirit and his soul.

The soul contract is complete.

He sensed something and placed the Transcendent Source Metal on the ground.

The Transcendent Source Metal, no bigger than a fist, under his control fused into the metal like a large droplet of water, slowly spreading outwards.

It is devouring and merging the metal in the Cao Family's sanctuary.

Under Cao Fengqi's astonished gaze, the entire room was swallowed by the Source Metal. He had a strange feeling that every corner of the room was within his perception.

He could even open a door in the wall in front of him with a thought.

"Is this the Transcendent Shelter?"

He raised an eyebrow and manipulated the Source Metal to continue spreading. After the entire Cao Family sanctuary was devoured and merged by the Source Metal, he was able to sense everything in his home.

Cao Jiancheng sat on the edge of the bed chatting with Liu Xiuxiu about his childhood with his siblings.

The sister-in-law of Dabao Xiaobao was in the room with them.

At this moment, it seemed as if the entire shelter was an extension of his body.

A thought struck him, and he looked at his shelter again, where a message appeared.

[Transcendent Shelter: Cao Fengqi]

[Sequence Level: Stronghold]

[Normal Defense: Level 2]

[Mental Defense: Level 0]

[Shelter System: None]

[Special Shelter Buildings: None]

[Overall Rating: Tier 1 Ordinary Stronghold]

[Note: Level 9 is the maximum. Currently, it can only provide shelter from wind and rain and protection against common evil spirits and beasts. It cannot be moved and has no attack system or special buildings.]

"This is?"

Cao Fengqi raised an eyebrow as he looked at the information about his shelter.

"The Transcendent Shelter actually possesses a sequence? And its sequence level is Stronghold? Interesting."

"Currently, my shelter's basic defense is only level 2; level 9 is the maximum?"

"This overall defense and overall rating is way too low."

Cao Fengqi watched, muttering to himself.

The Cao Family's sanctuary is now only built with level 5 metal, and he now clearly understands that what affects the ordinary defense of a sanctuary is the thickness of the metal.

Simply put, even though both are shelters made of level 5 metal, some shelters have walls that are 1 meter thick, so naturally they offer higher defense than shelters that are only half a meter thick.

The defense level of a shelter is not related to its size, but to the thickness of the metal and the shelter's defense system.

"I don't have a shelter system at all, but I do have an 8th-level power drive disk, though I don't have the Five Elements Pearl to officially activate it."

"What are special buildings?"

Cao Fengqi muttered to himself, he understood some of the defense and attack systems, but this shelter's special architecture...

Are special buildings training rooms?

"Could there be a special building like a forging room?"

"Then... are there any buildings related to battle pets? If so, it would be a huge improvement to my sanctuary."

Cao Fengqi's eyes flickered as he speculated.

He now has an advantage that no other Transcendent Shelter has: battle pets.

He can currently contract 27 battle pets. If he can contract even more in the future, each powerful battle pet will be equivalent to a powerful superhuman.

It can bring him, and the Transcendent Shelter, great power.

"But... it's tricky. We need to explore and find these things ourselves within the Lost Land. We still need to conquer Cangxuan Town as soon as possible, and then go to the main cities and even some places like the royal city."

"There are the homes of great nobles there; surely there are treasures related to the sanctuary."

He was thinking to himself.

However, the thought of how to deal with the last of those Wraith Remains gave him a headache.

After racking his brains for a long time without any clue, and sensing that Dabao and Xiaobao had already fallen asleep, he could only secretly go to his sister-in-law and call her over so that the two of them could discuss it together.
