Chapter 832 – The Tracker of the Transmigrated Girl (Part Three)
After that breathtaking scene high up in the sky, Jiang Pengji could see that the audience in the live stream was still in a daze.
From their perspective, Jiang Pengji held onto the yin-yang jade pendant, her expression relaxing a bit, then after a moment, she opened her eyes and muttered something about “so it’s this thing”… but what on earth is it? Totally nonsensical, they had no clue what just happened.
A whopping 150,000 dried fish audience members felt their curiosity skyrocketing, yet that pesky host refused to clarify anything.
Truly, this was enough to drive a perfectionist mad!
Before Jiang Pengji could sort out her thoughts, the audience could no longer restrain themselves, bombarding the screen with an avalanche of question-filled comments.
【Phantom Feather】: This is killing me! Can’t you just say it all at once? Half the words and half the mystery, it’s driving me nuts!
【Drunken Plaything】: Host, what’s the backstory of that jade pendant? Is it possible that it really has a personal space, a spirit spring, spiritual fields, a farmhouse, and even a grandpa for company? If that’s the case, why not quit this world conquest streaming and start live-streaming to cultivate immortality instead!
【Someday, A Blade in Hand】: Hahaha, that’s a great suggestion! If you start a cultivation stream, I want to be your top disciple! Even if I’m not an entry-level or inner disciple, just let me be a registered disciple, anything is better than this world domination stuff!
【World-Killing Bot】: Tsk—how can you be so naive? If this live stream stops covering the feudal lords’ struggle and switches to cultivating immortality, you think you’ll still have a chance to squeeze into the stream? Who knows, everyone might rush to the signal tower, and with your single years of loneliness, you think you can snatch a spot in the stream? Dream on.
【Shiyu the Lute Player】: Getting a spot in the live stream is the least of worries; what scares me is if the host switches to cultivating immortality and the whole world goes to cultivate!
The 150,000 dried fish audience gathered together, easily veering the topic off course.
Originally, they were eagerly trying to uncover the origins of the yin-yang jade pendant, but now their imaginations ran rampant, planning their futures in cultivation.
By the time Jiang Pengji managed to untangle her thoughts, the audience was discussing how leisurely life would be after they cultivated.
Jiang Pengji had no words.
She sent a comment to cut their daydreams short, lest their wild imaginations spiral out of control.
【Host V】: You guys are overthinking it, though your divergent thinking is impressive, it seems not much makes sense here. This thing, rather than calling it a jade pendant, is better described as a kind of interstellar mineral. Even in my world, it’s extremely rare and precious.
When Jiang Pengji revealed the answer, the audience was immediately taken aback, followed by deep disappointment.
They had hoped it would be about cultivating immortality, but it turned out to be such an answer.
【Disappointed Cloud Cat Demon】: Disappointment! Exceptionally disappointed! If it’s just a piece of mineral, then it’s utterly meaningless.
Regardless of whether it’s ancient, modern, or interstellar, they all exist in the same dimensional world; the only difference is the time axis.
Should technology advance vigorously, even the most backward era would inevitably enter the grand interstellar age—this is the inevitable result of technological development.
Minerals from Earth placed on another planet would still qualify as interstellar minerals, right?
If that’s the case, then the yin-yang jade pendant in the host’s hand is nothing special.
Many audience members expressed their disappointment, but a few caught onto the detail of Jiang Pengji’s statement.
She mentioned that this kind of interstellar mineral was extremely rare and precious even in her world, which was quite intriguing.
In a grand interstellar age, with thousands of habitable ecological planets, what’s most abundant is various energy sources.
In that scenario, to make Jiang Pengji use the term “precious and rare” to describe it, it must be an invaluable treasure!
As some audience members considered this layer, the extinguished curiosity flickered back to life.
【Fried Egg Orange】: Host, host—so what special function does this interstellar mineral have?
Jiang Pengji turned the yin-yang jade pendant over in her hands, a playful smile on her face.
Since there was no one around, she didn’t fear being overheard.
She spoke, “Special function, huh? You might get scared if I tell you. According to the records of the Interstellar Federation, a brand new intelligent species appears approximately every seven interstellar days. The biological forms of intelligent species are incredibly diverse. The most common life forms are solid organisms made up of cells, while the rarest are pure energy or spiritual beings. Whether it’s a pure energy being or a spiritual entity, their life structures are not stable; the vast majority can only survive in specific environments, while a few rely on special materials or mediums to leave their original ecological settings. This special material is exactly the kind of mineral I’m holding. Can you guess its value?”
Jiang Pengji rarely talked about her past, so whenever she did open her mouth, the audience naturally didn’t want to miss it.
【Awesome Mushroom】: Host, please stop keeping us in suspense, you’re killing us!
【Today’s Hand-Cutting 888】: How much value can such a small thing have? Is it possible it could buy an entire Earth?
Some audience members eagerly urged her on, while others teased her playfully.
Jiang Pengji chuckled, “A mineral about the size of your fingernail could buy one or even several mineral planets. Do you think it has no value? This thing is the most crucial cornerstone for the Heavenly Brain. With it, a truly universal Heavenly Brain network can be established. Telling you all this, you wouldn’t understand it anyway; just know that it’s very powerful… such a pity, in today’s world, it’s just wasting away.”
Such an impressive item, if placed in the right era, could maximize its utility and create endless wealth.
But right now?
Hehe, it’s just an ordinary accessory.
Jiang Pengji was once one of the highest authorities in the Federation, meaning her permissions concerning the Heavenly Brain were second only to the Federation’s Grand Marshal.
Many top-secret information ordinary people couldn’t access was completely open to her.
She had previously negotiated with the Heavenly Brain, so she knew it wasn’t just complex data but rather a living entity.
To be precise, the Heavenly Brain should be a virtual creature combining pure energy and spirit, highly similar to beings like the System.
It’s strange to think, if even the Heavenly Brain can’t completely detach from its carrier, how does the System manage it?
Simply dependent on a host?
But the host is just an ordinary human; theoretically, that’s not enough to be a carrier for a virtual creature.
Jiang Pengji touched the yin-yang jade pendant in hand, her expression revealing a hint of suspicion.
But soon, she shrugged off the thought.
At that moment, the live stream had already erupted with excitement.
Just how many Earths could such a small item be worth?
Teasing them, huh?
Jiang Pengji had no time to waste teasing them!
“…Though it’s a waste, in the hands of someone useful, it can still have some significance,” she chuckled, grasping the yin-yang jade pendant in her hand, “for example… catching mice!”
