"The situation is turning grim," one said.
"Hasn't it always been like this?" came the reply.
...
Eagles soar through the sky, fish dart in the shallow waters,...
It really does feel like an adventure game, like playing a game of Gwent.
"Sister Yao, why don't you give it a try?" Li Qianxia urged curiously.
Yaochi smiled and said, "In terms of the quantity of treasures, I have the most, but this competition is clearly about the quality."
"The key question is whether a skill counts as a 'treasure'." Yang Qinglan raised her hand and waved her Ruyi, attempting to use "information reading" on the island, but failed.
Li Qianxia had gathered a lot of information and said, "Each Mist Shadow has its own rules. This Mist Shadow is gambling on treasures, so it will restrict any other means."
After discussing it for a while, the four of them felt that there should be no danger. If things went wrong, they could simply admit defeat, and they wouldn't lose their weapons.
Li Qianxia volunteered and jumped onto the island.
Just in case, she put all her important belongings in Li Changzhou's backpack.
Octopus Mist Shadow was instantly activated, its tone becoming emotional: "Baby, baby!"
Li Qianxia replied: "Aba aba?"
"Baby, baby baby, baby!" Octopus Mist Shadow extended a tentacle, touched it between the two, and a ball of light appeared.
Inside the sphere of light was a stone.
Divine perception is useless; any detection spells fail. But without any means, one can tell that it is an ordinary stone.
because......
[The ordinary stone clutched in the hand of the cosmic collector before his death]
—A light screen like this is displayed above the stone.
"A collector of the universe?" Li Qianxia asked curiously.
Octopus Fog Shadow gave a gentlemanly bow, clearly referring to it.
"A collector of cosmic caliber, it seems he has quite a few treasures," Yaochi said with a smile.
Yang Qinglan said, "Taking out a worthless stone shows that it is very confident in its treasure trove."
Li Changzhou added, "It's like someone who has a royal flush in their hand always likes to play a 3 alone."
Yang Qinglan nodded, indicating that what he said pleased her.
On the island, Li Qianxia was preparing to take out the treasure... At this moment, she suddenly realized the most difficult part of this game - valuation.
How can you ensure that the value of your treasure is higher than that of the other person?
Between a piece of clothing and a stone, clothing is naturally more valuable in human values.
But what about here?
Clothes are made of fabric, and stones are made of stone. Which is more valuable, fabric or stone?
They had to come up with something that would guarantee a win, and to be on the safe side, extraordinary items would be the most reliable choice. But Li Qianxia had nothing on her person; everything was in Li Changzhou's backpack.
I was planning to play a little longer, but it seems I have no choice but to start the experiment right away.
She tried using the skill "Gold Coins and Silver Coins" (Effect: Take a gold coin by aiming at the sun, and a silver coin by aiming at the moon).
It was a success.
A ball of light flew out, standing alongside the stone, and a light curtain appeared above the ball of light as well.
[One of the skills of the primordial goddess sister]
As soon as the [skill] appeared, the [stone] dimmed and turned into a gashapon that rolled to the ground.
Despite the lack of detailed information, Octopus Fog Shadow pointed out its tentacles without hesitation, which were also spheres of light.
"Baby! Baby!" it cheered.
Li Qianxia's [skill] dimmed, turning into a gashapon that fell onto the beach.
Skills can be used as 'treasures' in gambling; Experiment 1 is complete.
Experiment 2...
"I concede."
No response.
There's no way to verbally admit defeat; Experiment Two is over.
Li Qianxia was about to take out a white cropped tank top she bought from BM and imagine what Octopus Mist Shadow would look like wearing it when an idea suddenly flashed through her mind...
She has an experiment she wants to conduct.
She plucked a strand of her own hair.
Experiment 3: Can the body be considered a treasure, and... can a single hair of hers be more valuable than a skill?
Hair flowing out, listed alongside [a skill of the Cosmic Collector].
The light screen appearing on the hair was: [The Primal Goddess's Inferior Primal Hair]
"Aba aba! Why did you add the word 'inferior'? It makes it sound like my hair is bad, aba!" Li Qianxia was very dissatisfied; her hair was perfectly fine.
The light of the [Skill] dimmed, turning it into the third gashapon on the beach.
"Baby, baby baby!" Octopus Fog Shadow was saying something in a fanatical tone, staring at Li Qianxia's hair like a madman.
But it was quick and immediately recognized the value of that strand of hair.
With a flick of its misty tentacles, a finger as white as jade floated in the air.
[A finger of the inferior primordial god]
[Hair] is turned into a gashapon toy and rolls onto the beach.
"They even have something like this?" The three people on the airship were somewhat surprised.
Don't assume that just because Li Changzhou is a true primordial divine body, Yang Tianlu and Li Yuyin are also primordial divine bodies, Li Huoya is a primordial fire tree, Li Qianxia has primordial bloodline, and Tathagata is a primordial golden body of faith, there are many 'primordial' beings.
Throughout the universe, they may be the only living 'primordial' beings.
The octopus in front of me actually has a 'Primordial Inferiority' finger, truly befitting its reputation as a collector of the universe.
The three were surprised, while Li Qianxia on the island was in a dilemma.
What could be more valuable than [the original finger of inferiority]?
It's naturally two fingers.
But for a game, the prize might still be a "stone"—the octopus's burial item before it died, or a "finger"—which could simply be a dead person's remains. Would you cut off two of your own fingers?
She hesitated, and Octopus Fog Shadow sighed as well.
Yaochi understood immediately and laughed, "Even the collector isn't sure about the value of 'Inferior Primordial Hair.' To secure a win, he brought out an 'Inferior Primordial Finger.' This kind of thing is too unappealing to Li Qianxia. It doesn't fit the collector's tactic of enticing his opponent to keep betting."
