Infinite Potential System

It was mostly a method to save the excess materials that they weren’t able to consume. As the intensity of the Beast Tides grew, the Chasm Guards would eventually have more food than they could eat.

Hmm, these Lightning Scorpion Tails seem to have good Lightning Resistance properties for their rank. I wonder if they’d make for good equipment. I can give some to Gunther and Yuming.

William showed the Chaos Guards where to store their goods, then left them to their devices and returned to the Fire Mine. It had barely been a few hours, so the Cultivators hadn’t made much progress, but William needed more Potential Points and couldn’t wait.

He spent four days inside the Fire Mine, extracting Greater Fire Shards until he had exactly five thousand more. He only gathered this small amount because there wasn’t enough room in his Space Rings, which hadn’t been emptied of Thieves’ Guild bodies or corpses from the last two Beast Tides.

He still had the Greater Fire Shards from his last visit to the Fire Mine!

I need somewhere to put all this stuff. At this rate, I’m going to have to make Space Rings every month!

William’s list of things to do was getting longer each day, but at least he was strong enough to navigate the Continent almost freely. The Thieves’ Guild would run at the mere mention of William, and even his bounty had been wiped.

With combat power at the peak of the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, those that originally contributed to the bounty feared for their lives and no longer dared to plot against William.

Even Retribution was surprisingly quiet, but William didn’t get cocky. There were still at least a few dozen Tribulation Transcendence Cultivators, and the Pillars of Justice had four left. If he pushed his enemies too far, they could very well cooperate to take him down.

I need to at least reach the Golden Core Realm before that happens. William thought as he checked the System Panel.

Natural Spirit Aura? So I only need to make it once? How strong is my defense with it right now? William asked.

-Yes. Your Current Cultivation Technique is Mana Devourer, which is at Epic Rarity, three levels above Common. Because you are in the fifth stage of the Core Formation Realm, your Spirit Aura will be equivalent to the second level of the Golden Core Realm.

Hmm, it’s not that useful now, but if I can get a stronger Cultivation Technique and level up... it can be really strong!

One William reached the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, wouldn’t his Spirit Aura make him unkillable in this World? All he needed to do was survive that long.

POTENTIAL POINTS: 12828

I’m poor again, after all that work... but I got what I needed. William smiled.

His Cultivation Speed was eight times what it used to be, which meant he should be able to gather 50 Spirit Qi in less than two minutes.

That’s over 1500 Spirit Qi per hour, which means he could earn the 35000 Spirit Qi needed for the next stage in less than a day!

Before he could Cultivate, though, William concealed his identity as the bounty hunter Serio and returned to Blue Moon City’s prison to drop off the dead thieves that he had killed in the Fire Mine, earning a few hundred million Gold Coins as a reward.

Some would say that William didn’t need that much money, and they were probably right, but he had large plans for the future, and this wasn’t for him, specifically. He also made sure to switch to blacksmith and support Mage Yuming’s identity next, selling off the Magical Beast corpses he had no need for.

Their hides, chitin, and pelts would be useful to Blue Moon City, but William wasn’t interested in entering the textile or clothing industry so soon. It would take too much of his time and he’d rather earn a few hundred Mana Stones.

William didn’t plan to sell off the Greater Fire Shards he earned, instead returning to the Gravitas Ruins where he spent 80 Starmetal Ore and six days refining a massive safe the size of a tool shed.

Inside, William used Tier 6 Arrays for the first time to create an elaborate Spatial Expansion Array, surprised to see that the Starmetal could still handle the stress. He added more Arrays unique to Space Rings, turning the interior of the Starmetal Safe into a region the size of Blue Moon City where he could store as many items as he pleased.

Another eight days passed, where William added huge warehouses inside the Starmetal Safe and sorted out every item meticulously. He had an entire warehouse committed solely to the storage of Greater Fire Shards, while others were made for weapons, armors, and many more.

He had warehouses divided by Beast Material, storing claws and fangs in one warehouse, and various hides and skins into another. The unique Arrays on the Starmetal Safe were even set up to make it specialized, meaning William could store all his Alchemy ingredients without an issue.

The only downside was that it would take nearly an entire minute to open the Starmetal Safe, due to the extreme complexity of the created item.

When everything was complete and William’s Space Rings were empty, he stored the necessary items back into his own Space Rings and took a tour around the miniature world he had essentially built.

It was barren and not pretty at all, but having a dedicated warehouse for his items just made William excited. He spent a few more hours adding Tier 6 defensive Arrays, ensuring that not even his friends could open the Starmetal Safe without his permission.

System, I’d like to register this Starmetal Safe as an Artifact.
