Chapter 821: Vol V Chapter 181

“This is such a magical treasure!” Sui Xiong couldn’t help but exclaim in satisfaction as he observed the gem which had completely transformed.

“This treasure’s power… it’s almost unlimited. This must be the secret behind great Divine Powers, what a sight to behold!”

It was rare for Sui Xiong to hold anyone in high regard, but at this moment, he was fully filled with admiration for the God of Virtue, who had created this treasure. Sui Xiong had seen many treasures in his life and created quite a few too, some of which had been extremely powerful. For example, the strongest treasure that he had created would be the “main brain” of his God Kingdom, which was a powerful computer that could sustain tens of thousands of peoples’ simultaneous surfing while powering complicated computer games. If this computer were to be returned to Earth during the time period where he was born, every country in the world would be fighting over it. However, when compared with this gem that the God of Virtue had created, it was as good as nothing. Sui Xiong certainly didn’t have the ability to create something as magical as this!

He could create treasures by harnessing his energy and directing it towards the treasure’s user. This was similar to the good luck tools or nectar bottles that he had seen before in his fairytale books. If his magic was slightly more advanced, he could even use his created treasures in unthinkable ways. For example, to create his individual world or to come up with a task solving system. In any case, no matter what, this energy was not infinite, and no matter whether he used it directly or harnessed it externally, it could not be used forever.

However, this gem was able to override this concept as it possessed infinite energy that did not require any external energy source. Furthermore, the power it possessed was rather strong!

Exactly how strong was it? Well, ever since Sui Xiong found out how to use it correctly, he had been testing the gem’s limits. When he was training with the gem, as he did not have the correct operating skills then, the gem had revealed some of its own strength. When let loose, it turned the Dragon of Chaos’ lair into earth-shattering chaos. The ability of this gem was clearly shown in its self-repairing abilities as well as its utilization of minimal energy to heal the Dragon of Chaos and transform his lair.

The unfortunate thing was that currently, the gem has stopped self-repairing. Although it had a huge crack that it was unable to fix, that was not its internal issue. That was a crafty ploy by the Goddess of Life in the past. The truth was that this crack actually did not exist. Or rather, it existed but not directly on the gem.

This crack existed on the Main Plane where it turned into an enchantment.

That’s right! The crack was the Main Plane enchantment that the gods had discussed and studied to no avail over the last few years. It was a ferocious killing weapon that went beyond low-level Divine Powers and could kill with a single strike of lightning!

This time, Sui Xiong had finally found it and understood its usage. Actually, it was this treasure, or rather, one could say that it manifested in this treasure.

the Goddess of Life’s was ingenious, and up till now, Sui Xiong was still unsure as to how she had achieved this. She had transformed this treasure into an enchantment that could protect the Main Plane, and yet, at the same time, the treasure still existed as a solo entity, its original usage totally unaffected.

Scientifically speaking, this was absurd! The enchantment was powerful and almost reached the level of a great Divine Power. Even if it was created by the God of Virtue for his priesthood, with the creation of the enchantment, its remaining power should be reduced. Yet, this treasure could freely show its powers without any issue… well, other than the deep crack on its surface. The crack was visible at times and invisible at other times and was unfixable no matter what, giving off the impression that it was a natural flaw.

All the magic took place at this crack. If Sui Xiong could examine it properly, he was sure that he would truly understand the power of this treasure, putting him on par with “Chaos.”

In the past year or so, Sui Xiong had been doing just that, but to no avail. He had wanted to continue his research. However, once the treasure had self-repaired, its inner surface suddenly became extremely smooth, and it gave off an ethereal feeling as if it contained nothing. This prevented Sui Xiong from observing it further. This was especially so as the energy that had been continuously flowing out had suddenly stopped, and it had regained its original look of being untouched.

No, that was inaccurate. Its glossiness was clearly different. Previously, it looked shabby and worn out, like it was stuck together with glue. Now, it looked sturdy and new.

I rather it stay old and shabby! Now, with its new structure, I can’t even borrow its energy anymore! I really wonder what the Goddess of Life did at the start to make this object so sly…

As Sui Xiong stretched lazily, he slowly thought about this treasure. To him, it felt rather stingy. There was so much it could offer, and every minute of its usage was probably worth thousands of coins. Yet, it was so unwilling to offer its services—how petty!

Of course, Sui Xiong knew that that was a rather toxic mindset. The wealth of others was theirs to spend, and whether or not they wanted to use it for charity or not was their personal freedom, not something others could judge. For example, some charity leaders converted charities into businesses in the past. He had felt that this was not right and extremely dishonest. However, once Professor Cheng had found out about it, Sui Xiong was immediately admonished.

“Sui Xiong, do you think these charity leaders owe you money?”

“Of course not.”

“In that case, do they owe the public money?”

“I guess not.”

“Since they do not owe anyone, how is the fact that they are willing to help others a bad thing?”

“But they’re using these charity businesses to earn money!”

“Do these earnings affect their willingness to help others at the same time?”

Sui Xiong was speechless.

“I know that there’s a certain celebrity who is extremely charitable and has many rich people supporting him. He traveled to India to donate to the temples as well as backed political campaigns in America… What do you think about this? Does being purely charitable mean one shouldn’t care about religion or politics?”

Sui Xiong could only accept defeat.

Now, he thought about this incident and smiled.

The idea of purity was theoretical but rather subjective. One had to consider it from several angles to decide whether one was good or evil.

Just as he was focusing on his nostalgia, the gleaming gem suddenly lit up slightly. While Sui Xiong did not notice it, the Dragon of Chaos saw it but did not think much of it.
