Countless Main God prompts rang incessantly in Zhou Ming's mind, the insane repetition of information dizzying him.
"No, no, it's too much, I can't take it anymore..."
Zhou Ming couldn't help but sigh, trying to filter out the mostly similar repetitive information, and then, he saw different content within it.
"[Sufficient information of the same attribute has been obtained for this item! No further repeated submissions are required, and items of the same attribute will no longer yield reward points!]"
"What does that mean?!"
Annoyed by the noise, Zhou Ming painstakingly queried this message, and this time, he fortunately received an answer from the Main God, not being brushed off with some ridiculous excuse like "insufficient authority."
The Main God's efficiency was terrifyingly high; the sky-full of Gu were recycled in an extremely short time, and the massive amount of information in Zhou Ming's mind rapidly plummeted to zero after a Peak of violent insertion.
However, quite a few Gu remained around him. Zhou Ming casually picked one up, recognizing it as a Dragon Soul Gu, a Rank Four Soul Path Gu. Its exterior was as white as jade, and it lay quietly in his palm, like a fine Dragon-shaped jade pendant.
"Soul Path, Wood Path, Water Path..."
Zhou Ming sighed softly. The answer he received from the Main God clarified the reason for this situation.
He had provided a large number of Gu to the Main God, and the Main God had, in turn, stripped a massive amount of Law fragments from these Gu, gradually piecing together and completing the Law chain of the Gu World.
The Gu of the Wood Path, Soul Path, and Water Path were the ones Zhou Ming submitted the most, so their Law chains were the first to be completed by the Main God, and thus, the Main God no longer needed more Gu of these types.
Among these remaining Gu, aside from a very few duplicate Gu that had been previously submitted, the rest were all Wood Path, Soul Path, and Water Path Gu.
Information on these Gu would no longer be taken by the Main God, but they would still appear on the Main God's exchange list.
This was because the Main God could instantly deduce the Law fragments of these Gu and add them to its database.
Without effort, there is no reward. Since the Main God did not take Zhou Ming's Gu, it naturally wouldn't give Zhou Ming reward points.
However, the Main God's reply also explicitly told Zhou Ming that it could currently only deduce Law fragments—which are Mortal Gu—and could not yet deduce a complete Law—which is an Immortal Gu.
So, while the Main God no longer accepted Mortal Gu of the Wood Path, Soul Path, and Water Path, it still accepted Immortal Gu of these three Daos without issue.
"This time it's Wood Path, Soul Path, and Water Path. The next time there's such a large-scale recycling, more Daos' Law chains will be completed by the Main God, I suppose."
"If this continues, the Gu World's very foundations might be thoroughly studied by the Main God, and the difficulty of invading the Gu World will have decreased by who knows how much."
"Tsk tsk, selling out the Gu World's Laws to exchange for massive benefits from the Main God, I'm practically the Gu World's biggest traitor!"
"But what does it matter? Being a traitor allows me to play both sides, profiting immensely. Even if I'm eventually abandoned by both, it doesn't matter. It's enough to grow stronger before that happens."
"As long as the benefits are great enough, there's nothing that can't be betrayed!"
Calming himself, Zhou Ming began to check his gains from this trip.
Immediately, a dizzying number suddenly appeared before his eyes.
39,775,500!
"Wait, wait! Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands... millions! Thirty-nine million!"
Although he had calculated his earnings beforehand, when this enormous number truly appeared before him, the impact made Zhou Ming feel as if he were floating on clouds, his whole body light, enveloped by immense happiness.
"No wonder all forces desperately want to conquer new worlds, trying every possible way to cooperate with newcomers like me. Such immense profits would drive any Reincarnator mad."
Striving to calm his emotions, Zhou Ming furiously pondered the use of the reward points, his next arrangements in the Gu World, and... his cooperation with Feng Yuanzheng and the others.
"Before our cooperation officially begins, I must secure all the profits from the Mortal Gu sector!"
"The Gu acquisition plan cannot stop. I need to submit as many Daos as possible until I can no longer submit them."
"When they enter the Gu World, hmph, they can rely on their own abilities to snatch Immortal Gu from the Gu Immortals. Even if they succeed, they'll still have to give me forty percent."
"Besides that, there are other benefits, which I can demand from Feng Yuanzheng now."
"Also, I need to urge Feng Yuanzheng, making him think I'm also very eager to start the cooperation, so he'll be more generous with resources. Heh heh, the different time flows between the two worlds have bought me a lot of time, so saying things to express a cooperative attitude is harmless."
Zhou Ming pondered ceaselessly and quickly decided on a plan. He exchanged for a Reincarnation Letter and sent a letter to Feng Yuanzheng.
Besides urging Feng Yuanzheng to quickly prepare for cooperation-related matters, the letter contained an exchange list, all items of which were Rank Eight or above. Zhou Ming's authority was insufficient to exchange for them, so he left it all to Feng Yuanzheng.
The list included exchange items of Rank Ten or above, for which Feng Yuanzheng's authority was also insufficient, but Zhou Ming didn't care; Feng Yuanzheng would always find a way.
A massive project like developing a world was not something Feng Yuanzheng's small team could handle; he simply didn't have the capital for it.
Therefore, after Feng Yuanzheng returned to the Main God Space, he would inevitably report this matter to the legion behind him, and under the premise of securing his own sufficient interests, he would cooperate with Zhou Ming using the legion's power.
At this point, what was asking the big shots in the legion to exchange a few high-Rank items?
However, Zhou Ming also knew that these exchange items were extremely valuable, and Feng Yuanzheng and the power behind him absolutely could not bear the full cost for Zhou Ming. So, Zhou Ming explicitly stated in the letter that he would make up the full payment, with both parties paying a portion. This was also one of the benefits promised to Zhou Ming in the initial terms discussed with Feng Yuanzheng.
The reason for doing this was also to show Feng Yuanzheng's backing forces his capital. Only by letting them see firsthand that he could indeed obtain large profits would they be tempted and eagerly accelerate cooperation with him, and Zhou Ming's demands would also be more easily met.
"It's like a sheep dealing with a pack of wolves, needing to constantly guard against them while trading, lest they devour him, flesh and bone."
Sighing lightly, Zhou Ming opened the exchange list and began to exchange for items he could afford.
"This time, the Main God got a taste of sweetness, so the Gu World must also gain some benefits. Otherwise, by betraying the Gu World so frantically, I might genuinely be targeted and suppressed by Heavenly Will, even if the Venerables want to protect me, I would still have many troubles for nothing."
"Perhaps, I can also use this opportunity to conduct multiple probes to see if my conjecture is true."
