Lighthouse Richest Man: "In the past, didn't we discuss various worlds' energy systems? We once speculated whether natural chakra and spiritual energy shared commonalities. In our research, spiritual energy is a universal power."
Lighthouse Richest Man: "This doesn't mean it can grant wishes if sufficient in quantity—but that it can perfectly integrate into any world system."
Lighthouse Richest Man: "Whether Madara Uchiha's and Minato Namikaze's chakra, or Whitebeard's Haki, it can perfectly adapt."
Lighthouse Richest Man: "It's incredibly gentle, producing no rejection with any substance."
Lighthouse Richest Man: "If ghouls consume humans as food because human bodies contain substances they need, then spiritual energy can substitute for the substance in human flesh to satisfy ghouls."
Ordinary Group Leader: "Is this analysis useful?"
Lighthouse Richest Man: "No."
Ordinary Group Leader: "..."
You spent all this time saying useless things.
Lighthouse Richest Man: "Shrug.jpg"
Lighthouse Richest Man: "I'm just stating my viewpoint."
Lighthouse Richest Man: "Anyway, with Angel Civilization helping her, whether the analysis is useful doesn't matter, right?"
Since ghouls were products created by human technology, Angel Civilization resolving this would definitely be extremely easy.
Before then, Touka Kirishima could completely purchase ingredients nourished by spiritual energy from Brandon White's and the Group Leader's worlds.
The prices weren't expensive anyway.
Ordinary Group Leader: "True enough."
Ordinary Group Leader: "@White Rabbit, you can rely on check-ins to obtain points first, or hunt some ghouls and recycle them for points. Though I don't know if this tomato is from Brandon White's world or mine, either way it's not expensive."
Ordinary Group Leader: "Huh, wait."
Ordinary Group Leader: "Does the tomato in the image have a mark?"
Su Yunxiao suddenly noticed the tomato Touka Kirishima posted had a faint numerical symbol. However, it was very light—easy to miss without careful observation.
If she wasn't mistaken, the number should be 142?
Lighthouse Richest Man: "There does seem to be one. Does this tomato have some special meaning?"
Lighthouse Richest Man: "Special cultivation?"
Looking at the chat group's note, this tomato grew in places with extremely rich spiritual energy. It could indeed be the result of careful cultivation.
Child of Nature: "This symbol..."
Brandon White looked at the 142 in the image, froze momentarily, then shifted his gaze to the tomato plants carefully tended by nearby Pikachu.
Currently, two Pikachu were using markers to write numbers on unripe tomatoes.
His index finger lightly touched the void. A bright red tomato fell into his hand—identical to the tomato Touka Kirishima drew.
"Pika?"
"Pikachu!"
Seeing Brandon White take a tomato, Pikachu tilted their heads in confusion.
Thinking Brandon White wanted to eat tomatoes, they plucked what they considered the highest quality ripe tomatoes one after another, running to Brandon White's side and happily presenting them with both small hands.
"Pika pika!"
"Thank you."
Brandon White didn't refuse, smiling as he rubbed these Pikachu's heads.
Because the small world's area was vast, when previously purchasing Pokémon, he hadn't been stingy with points and bought many.
The number of Pikachu wasn't small either.
Though not every Pikachu loved sweet-and-sour tomatoes, the vast majority showed tremendous affection for them.
So he'd specifically planted tomatoes in one area of the small world.
Actually, it couldn't really be called planting—just casually scattering seeds. Spiritual energy would handle the rest.
However, perhaps because they liked them, these Pikachu spontaneously cared for these tomatoes. Each Pikachu even had their own tomato seedling.
Number 142 belonged to one Pikachu.
Ice Queen: "Image.jpg"
Ice Queen: "Power even more formidable than Demon's Extract! I can feel its terrifying potential!"
Ice Queen: "Energy in the air is constantly merging into my body!"
Ice Queen: "Though slow, my strength is genuinely increasing!"
How long had it been—how long since she'd felt her strength progressing?
Not that her potential had reached its limit, but Demon's Extract had been developed by her to a very deep degree. Further progress—even the slightest—required enormous time.
[Talent: Extreme Ice Phoenix]
[Note: One of the strongest abilities born in the Spiritual Energy World. Even without deliberate cultivation, will reach the world's pinnacle through time's nurturing]
Ordinary Group Leader: "Holy crap, what the hell?!"
Ordinary Group Leader: "One of the strongest abilities? Even without deliberate cultivation, will continuously grow stronger with time until reaching the world's pinnacle?"
Ordinary Group Leader: "Even cheats can't be this broken, right?!"
Ordinary Group Leader: "Are you gambling with your life?!"
What concept was the Spiritual Energy World's pinnacle?
Setting aside Brandon White's world that just underwent Spiritual Energy Revival, even her world was only in the mid-stage of Spiritual Energy Revival. Current top-tier powerhouses' strength was still far from their peaks!
Yet even now they could easily destroy planets and survive in space.
They indeed hadn't touched the Solar System's planets, but outside the Solar System, they'd fought powerhouses from other planets. During battle, they'd destroyed a planet larger than Earth!
Though due to spiritual energy causing world rule changes, technology progressed slowly—even regressed considerably—they lacked related videos ensuring authenticity.
But this was official information—symbolizing humanity's powerhouses entering a new strength phase.
Mid-stage could already destroy stars. What about late-stage?
Forget the universe—exploding the Solar System should be possible, right?
Such a talent—Esdeath drew it in one go?
This luck—so envious, so jealous!!!
However, "Extreme Ice Phoenix"—she'd never heard of this ability in her world. So it was from Brandon White's world?
"Chen Bing's ability, huh? Decent luck."
Seeing the talent Esdeath drew, Brandon White couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
Excluding himself, whether Skyler Quinn, Chen Bing, or Firewing—their talents ranked among the world's strongest tier.
In the future recorded by the Annals of History, besides Brandon White, these three were the Spiritual Energy Era's supreme powerhouses.
Not just humanity—the future was an era of myriad races contending. Countless races, different civilizations would all emerge.
Through long exchanges, battles, and fusion, one race created a ranking based on all powerhouses' talents and strength. The ranking held only ten positions. Only the strongest of all races qualified for placement.
Chen Bing's name prominently occupied one spot.
