Chapter 105: The Elite Soldier of the Flourishing Tang Empire

The Elite Soldier Token!

It was palm-sized, entirely made of blue iron. On it were painted picturesque landscapes spanning thousands of miles, along with rotating sun, moon, and stars, showcasing the glorious scenery of the divine land.

Amid these vast landscapes and celestial bodies stood a small blue iron figure. It held a golden spear and a sword, looking both fierce and majestic. Most of the figure’s body glowed with white light. Once the entire figure shone white, it meant it was time for a promotion. The bearer could exchange it for a better token and gain greater authority.

Beside the blue iron figure was a row of jumping numbers. At that moment, the number read 1000, meaning 1000 Flourishing Tang Points. These were rewards given by the Flourishing Tang Empire to Primordial Warriors who completed tasks.

Members of the Flourishing Tang Empire could use Flourishing Tang Points to exchange for things they needed from the empire’s armory: Credit Points, luxury cars, mansions, land, companies… even airplanes, cannons, tanks, aircraft carriers, various powerful combat weapons… as well as Yuan Crystals, Yuan Power Weapons, and the latest researched Origin Force Cultivation Methods. Almost anything one could imagine could be obtained with Flourishing Tang Points.

Flourishing Tang Points were also extremely valuable. One Flourishing Tang Point was worth about ten thousand Credit Points. That meant after completing this Three-Star Quest, Jiang Xincheng’s 1000 Flourishing Tang Points could be directly exchanged for 10 million Credit Points—and they were in high demand but short supply.

Basically, no member of the Flourishing Tang Empire would use their hard-earned Flourishing Tang Points to get Credit Points, as that was considered wasteful. They would save the points and use them to acquire precious treasures they needed from the empire’s armory.

This single Three-Star Quest not only allowed Jiang Xincheng to pass the assessment and become a full member of the Flourishing Tang Empire, but it also nearly filled up the blue iron figure with merits. He only needed to complete one or two more tasks to be promoted to Leader of Ten.

Additionally, there were the 1000 Flourishing Tang Points, worth over 10 million Credit Points. This showed the generosity of the Flourishing Tang Empire. This intelligent system was never stingy; as long as one could complete the tasks it assigned, they would receive astonishing rewards.

In just a few days, Jiang Xincheng had leapt to become a millionaire with assets exceeding ten million. It had to be said that the rewards from the Flourishing Tang Empire were truly impressive.

On the back of the Elite Soldier Token was a small, exquisite Handheld Computer. Using it, one could check the tasks issued by the Flourishing Tang Empire at any time and decide whether to accept them or not. The higher one’s status, the greater the authority on this Handheld Computer, and the more resources of the Flourishing Tang Empire they could control.

Internal data, real-time tracking, investigating detailed information of certain citizens, controlling the Department of Public Security in some areas, giving orders to certain military units… even launching a nuclear attack on a city. As long as one had sufficient authority, a member of the Flourishing Tang Empire could use this Handheld Computer to do many terrifying things, almost like an omnipotent god.

Once someone possessed all the authority of the Flourishing Tang Empire, they could control this Divine Artifact, secretly dominating half of the Shenxia Alliance and influencing the entire planet, becoming an emperor-like figure.

Wolf’s Gaze!

Wolf’s Gaze was an energy weapon, slightly larger than a palm, entirely black, with a ferocious wolf head on it. The wolf’s eyes emitted a green glow, capable of shooting a beam as thick as a thumb, with considerable lethal power.

This was a low-level energy weapon independently developed by the Flourishing Tang Empire. Its lethality was comparable to the strongest pistols on the market. It was one of the standard-issue weapons for members of the Flourishing Tang Empire. It could be replaced, but only if one had Flourishing Tang Points and sufficient authority.

Fine Steel Sword!

The name Fine Steel Sword sounded very ordinary and common, but it was actually a Yuan Power Weapon accidentally forged by ancient blacksmiths. Once infused with Primordial Force, it could cut through jade and metal, boasting terrifying offensive power. It was also standard equipment given to new members by the Flourishing Tang Empire, worth at least a million Credit Points, showing the excellent treatment the empire provided to its members.

As an Elite Soldier-level member of the Flourishing Tang Empire, Jiang Xincheng also had authority no less than that of a second-level civil servant. He could command the Department of Public Security at any time, or direct ten police officers or soldiers, making them follow his orders and assist him in completing tasks.

He could overdraft over ten million Credit Points in emergencies, learn about new developments in the alliance, have priority when taking buses or planes, directly investigate civil servants below the third level, and enjoy benefits like free travel on buses and planes. These privileges were extremely generous.

While enjoying so many rights, members of the Flourishing Tang Empire naturally had to fulfill certain obligations. For example, they had to complete at least one task every three months, obey some mandatory tasks issued by the empire at critical moments, and protect the interests of all citizens of the Shenxia Alliance…

Rights and obligations were balanced. However, upon closer comparison, the obligations were not too heavy compared to the rights enjoyed. That was why the Flourishing Tang Empire attracted countless Primordial Warriors from the Shenxia Alliance to flock to it.

Being able to join the Flourishing Tang Empire was an honor in itself. For Jiang Xincheng, having the status of an Elite Soldier in the Flourishing Tang Empire meant he could be considered a successful person. If he returned to his hometown, he would be a big shot who could influence events.

Smiling slightly, Jiang Xincheng headed toward the small courtyard he rented. However, remembering the stunned expression of Centurion Shi Jiewen when he learned that Jiang Xincheng had completed the Three-Star Quest of killing the Ruthless Poison Nun Lou Haiyue, a bright smile crossed Jiang Xincheng’s lips.

Probably no one had expected him to complete this Three-Star Quest so quickly. Jiang Xincheng quickened his pace. It was time to go back and pack up properly. Next, he needed to make a trip to Gaozang Province.

The Mutated Yuan Crystal, Stone of Wisdom, should appear in Gaozang Province around this time. He couldn’t miss it. If he went too late, the Stone of Wisdom might be eaten by that foolish boy, which would be such a waste.

With the Stone of Wisdom, once he absorbed its wondrous power, his comprehension would greatly increase, and his Spiritual Sense realm would advance by leaps and bounds, entering a brand new level.

With improved comprehension, he could more easily study Devouring the Cosmos and prepare to break through to higher realms. Moreover, it was time to study the Silkworm Devours the Sun Chant. He was almost at the peak of the Thousand Refinements Spirit Tempering Method. To make his Spiritual Sense grow faster and stronger, he had to practice the Silkworm Devours the Sun Chant.

The Stone of Wisdom was extremely important to Jiang Xincheng, so he absolutely could not miss it. After all, in his previous life spanning decades, a treasure like the Stone of Wisdom had only appeared once and never again. If he missed it, it would be gone forever, with no chance to obtain it again.

Reborn into this world, how could Jiang Xincheng stand by and watch such a treasure go to waste? He was determined to get his hands on this Stone of Wisdom.
