Chapter 668: Breathing Earth Loom

The reason no one bid fiercely, even though it was a legendary expandable treasure, was because it was useless.

Besides being a little more fertile than ordinary soil, the Breathing Earth Loom offered no other benefit.

If they wanted land, with the vastness of the universe, they could have as much as they wanted.

As for fertility, it could be easily solved by various technologies.

Thus, hearing this seller dare to set the price at 80 quadrillion, everyone couldn’t help but advise Nash against it.

"Anyway, it’s 80 quadrillion. Or you can also wait until the time is up; who knows if you can buy it for only 3 quadrillion?" Popo didn’t care about the bystanders and said.

To get this Breathing Earth Loom, their team was nearly wiped out.

Wanting to regain their footing, he had to sell it for as much as possible.

"10 quadrillion. I can take the item now; otherwise I’ll just wait it out." Nash offered after a bit of thought.

Looking around, it seemed no one held interest in the treasure.

However, just to be on the safe side, Nash wanted to buy it as quickly as possible.

"Impossible. 50 quadrillion, and I’ll also tell you where we got it!"

"Why would I want to know where you got it? With the vastness of the universe, I may never be able to go there." Nash shook his head.

10 quadrillion was already the limit; any more and it was better to wait 3 days and bid with the others.

Still, hearing Nash’s offer, many still advised him against it while offering their merchandise.

"Why are you even here? If you’re not buying, go as far away as possible." Popo shooed the others away.

"Good, sir. This is an expandable treasure; even the most ordinary could fetch up to 100 quadrillion! If we weren’t in the wild void area, I wouldn’t sell it so cheaply." Popo persuaded Nash.

Indeed, while they said the Breathing Earth Loom was useless, it was relative.

In this wild, void area full of unowned resources, it was nothing but a dirt block.

However, in a civilized society where every dirt, rock, and blade of grass was someone’s property, it was a heavenly treasure.

With limitless, expandable, nutrient-rich land, it could do wonders in a civilization.

"Fine, I’ll increase it to 30 quadrillion. Take it or leave it." Nash said after a little thought.

Based on Popo’s words, Nash suddenly thought of a crucial thing: food!

Although land was abundant, the power of technology was limited.

After all, it can’t turn a rock into land that can be planted.

While this might not be an issue for a while, in thousands or tens of thousands of years, fertile land was a treasure everyone would vie for.

Nash knew the key to this wild void area was the power of will.

To grow the power of will, the population was indispensable.

And what are the three major needs of a population? Food, water, and shelter.

Having the Breathing Earth Loom, Nash could directly solve two of them!

Meanwhile, hearing Nash’s offer, Popo finally paused to think.

"30 quadrillion..."

Although not too high, it was enough to recoup the loss of their team.

Furthermore, getting it on the first day of the trade, Popo could use the funds to buy many more things.

"What do you think? I still have other things to buy; I’ll go back after you think it over." Nash said, looking at the list of items he wanted, disappearing one by one.

The first day of the trade was full of treasures that made his eyes light up.

However, unlike the Breathing Earth Loom that no one wanted, the others were snapped up in a second or were fiercely bid for.

If Nash were to buy them directly, he would have to spend an enormous amount of money.

Especially since his competition was not just high-level teams but also the top-level ones.

Unable to afford most items, he could only concentrate on the most important.

Finally, after a hard struggle, Popo relented and decided to sell the item to Nash for 30 quadrillion.

"30 quadrillion it is... I will also give you the information as promised."

"That’s good."

Without another word, Nash took out the money and paid for it.

Receiving the storage ring filled with a void source crystal, Popo was unable to hide the smile on his face.

It was the first time he had seen such a large amount of money. With it, he could buy many treasures that might turn their situation around.

Taking out the mound of dirt smaller than a person, he gave it to Nash along with the information about where they found it.

"Happy transaction."

"Hmm, see you around."

Getting what he wanted, Nash began to move to other places.

His goal this time was to buy materials to upgrade their mother core ship to the Tier 8 realm.

These rare materials were not cheap, coupled with their quantity. Nash began to spend tens of quadrillions to get a complete set.

As for buying a mother core ship himself, Nash didn’t even dare to compete.

Just the materials for a Tier 8 mother core ship alone cost hundreds of quadrillions, much less a complete one.

Seeing their prices, he knew it would take them over a hundred years to barely afford one.

In that case, it was better to fix what they had.

After the materials, Nash went to the Mechanical Race side to buy battleships and large-scale defensive weapons.

On the way, his guide began to show him various models to choose from.

"It’s really cheap."

Looking at the various models and their prices, Nash couldn’t help but doubt if it was even real.

He thought each Tier 8 battleship would cost tens or even hundreds of trillions, but here they were at most a few trillion, with some even costing hundreds of billions!

One had to know that even the Tier 6 Neon Battleship he sold cost 10 billion.

Yet such a battleship, a key force in the wild void area, was sold so cheaply!
