From the generous rewards granted by the world’s will after placing the Nine Provinces Cauldron, one could clearly see how significant its effect was. If they had another one, the world’s will would likely be fully born.
However, Epic items were extrely difficult to obtain, let alone special items like the Nine Provinces Cauldron, which were of imnse value to the world’s will.
Noah had seen such items before in the trading area.
The prices of special items were incredibly high. Sothing like a micro spirit vein cost at least several thousand contribution points, and its effect was still limited. Perfect-grade items would undoubtedly have a substantial impact, but they were nearly impossible to co across.
After careful consideration, the most cost-effective options were still world shards and world origin.
Both of these could be found in the trading area.
The minimum quality available was Rare.
Returning to the trading market, Noah spent a considerable amount of ti before finally discovering an item.
[Polluted World Shard]
[Quality: Rare]
[Type: Item]
[Contains a world shard infected by demonic energy, covering an area of 200,000 square kiloters.]
Although it was an item of relatively low quality, because it was a world shard, its price was still high compared to other special items. Noah spent 7,000 contribution points to purchase it.
As for the "Polluted" prefix, Noah didn’t mind.
An unpolluted world shard would never be sold at this price, and this one had a sufficiently large area.
If it were a world shard containing spirit veins and abundant world spiritual energy, it would be at least Perfect-grade.
Afterward, Noah traded several Rare-grade items in exchange for another item.
[Pure World Origin]
[Quality: Rare]
[Type: Item]
[Contains a drop of highly concentrated world origin.]
Do not be misled by the fact that it is only a single drop; the amount it contains is substantial.
The chaotic energy converted from a Third-Order Disaster Instance, when condensed, would amount to only one drop.
After checking the ti, more than a dozen hours had already passed since entering the Civilization Convergence Zone. Noah headed to the special area once again.
The System Store was located there, offering a variety of practical items.
For example, interdinsional distress signals.
Once used, they could send a distress signal to other Awakened Worlds. The receiving world could choose whether to provide assistance or ignore it.
There were two types of distress signals: directional and random.
The directional type allowed the user to send a signal to a specific target, usually to request help from allies. After all, even if two Awakened Worlds ford an alliance, their communication was limited to the Civilization Convergence Zone, and the distance between them remained unknown. There was no way to predict when danger might arise.
Ordinary civilizations do not possess the ability to traverse worlds.
With this spatial distress signal, they can seek assistance from allies at any ti.
Allies can then provide reinforcent using cross-world teleportation devices purchased from the System Store, ensuring that their alliance does not beco aningless.
As for the random type, as the na suggests, it sends distress signals to random Awakened Worlds.
The randomness of this type of distress signal is extrely high; it could attract a benevolent civilization or a Breeder Civilization.
Unless they are facing a life-or-death crisis, no civilization would choose to use such an item.
Noah did not purchase either type of distress signal.
Blue Star had not yet reached the point where it needed to seek help from other worlds. Moreover, sending distress signals would expose the coordinates of the Blue Star Civilization, which was a significant drawback.
With the threat of the Dragon Slayers looming, Noah was naturally unwilling to reveal his location.
However, he did purchase a signal receiver; without it, he would not be able to receive distress signals at all. He also acquired several cross-world teleportation devices.
Naturally, Noah bought these items with the intention of carrying out rescues.
It was not out of compassion, but because rescuing other worlds brought tangible benefits, allowing him to earn a certain amount of contribution points.
To purchase a residence in the Civilization Convergence Zone, a certain level of contribution points was required.
So items in the System Store also had contribution point requirents.
Not only that, but accumulating contribution points to a certain threshold could also unlock civilization traits.
Noah also ca to understand the reward system.
Civilizations did not receive rit or contribution points for overcoming Disasters, as this was considered self-preservation, where effort and sacrifice were expected.
However, rescuing other civilizations would grant contribution points.
Accepting missions in the Civilization Convergence Zone to resolve Disasters yields both contribution points and rit.
After leaving the System Store, Noah realized that his ti in the Civilization Convergence Zone was nearly up. He headed to the residential area and rented a small bungalow.
Looking at the bungalow in front of him, which was only about twenty square ters and extrely simple, Noah shook his head helplessly.
"Within a year, I must buy a house here."
Setting this small goal for himself, Noah carried his gains and exited the Civilization Convergence Zone.
[Congratulations to Blue Star Civilization for entering the ranking on the Civilization Pillar. Reward: All residents’ lifespan 100 years, slight increase in cultivation aptitude, 10 large teleportation arrays within the planet.]
When Blue Star Civilization was listed on the Civilization Pillar, a system prompt sounded in everyone’s ears.
"What’s going on?"
"What is the Civilization Pillar?"
"Holy crap, my 90-year-old grandpa jumped out of bed and started doing jumping jacks on the spot. He’s even clamoring to enter an instance."
The entire world was shaken.
Although no one knew how this universal reward had co about, the benefits were simply extraordinary.
Everyone’s lifespan had increased by 100 years, effectively eliminating Blue Star’s aging crisis. Countless elderly people who had been on the verge of death were now radiating renewed vitality.
The improvent in cultivation aptitude also led many to discover that their efficiency in practicing techniques had increased significantly.
"Hahaha, I bet this universal reward is definitely thanks to Great God Noah."
"Is there even a need to bet? Besides Great God Noah, who else could have done this?"
Of course, it wasn’t all good news.
Across Blue Star, many people instinctively looked up and noticed that the clear sky now displayed a new countdown.
[Otherworldly Race (Ghost-Level): 90 Days]
"Huh, another Disaster is coming."
"There are still three months. No need to panic."
Looking at the countdown in the sky, the people of Blue Star remained relatively calm.
Having just experienced a Ghost-Level Calamity, and with tens of millions of Demonized Monsters still lurking in the world’s oceans, they were no longer completely ignorant of such threats. Naturally, they did not panic.
As a Ghost-Level Calamity, the intensity was fixed; at most, Fourth-Order Monsters would appear.
For an invasion of this level, especially with three months to prepare, the people of Blue Star were no longer particularly afraid.
...
Noah opened his eyes and found himself back at his residence.
He first checked his ssages. As expected, there were many unread notifications, so from Rose and others from Roland.
"Did the rewards for the Civilization Pillar ranking arrive in real ti? I thought I would have to wait until I returned for them to take effect."
"A new Ghost-Level Calamity?"
Like most people on Blue Star, Noah remained very calm.
The All Heavens and Myriad Realms were filled with countless Disasters. While Blue Star had been targeted by Demonized Monsters, it would inevitably face threats from other types of Disasters as well.
