World-saving Plan: The Only Savior

Chapter 1754 - 43: Ziwei’s Mortal Bottle (Part 2)

In the space, Ziwei planted numerous spiritual plants and raised many small animals, some of which were low-level spiritual beasts, while others were rare ornamental beasts from unique planets. These ornamental beasts had genetic locks, making cloning nearly impossible, and their prices were extremely high.

It’s undeniable that the Mortal Bottle is a remarkably powerful magic treasure. Across the entire Dark Star Alliance, it’s challenging to find storage equipment that can compare to its space, especially considering its active space.

It can be said that even in front of an ancient family like the Lan Family, this treasure is enough to move them, as even the Lan Family doesn’t possess such a level of active space equipment.

Reflecting on this, Zhang Xiaoman naturally understood Ziwei’s intense reaction upon hearing about him.

This woman causes trouble everywhere and loses money, but she’s quite poor. Now, he’s borrowing her Mortal Bottle, which does seem like he’s trying to pack up all her belongings, no wonder she’s so agitated.

However, speaking of this, Zhang Xiaoman felt both amused and exasperated. Ziwei, this woman, with such a large active storage space and top-time-space class magic artifact, actually played it like a farm game. It’s truly a waste of a valuable treasure.

This time, he’s heading to the Plague Relics, where the spatial limitations of the illusion prevent ordinary storage equipment from being used; only advanced active storage spaces can barely be opened.

This is one reason why this mission is difficult to carry out single-handedly. Besides the heavy extraction volume, it’s challenging to transport goods with only personal Strength and lacking a large storage space. Only the family mining teams and fleets can complete this task.

There’s no way around it; active storage space equipment is exceedingly rare. Even ancient Elder Families struggle to have them. Ziwei’s bottle must be kept secret. Otherwise, if others find out, it will surely cause a lot of trouble.

Information about the Plague Relics was provided by the Lan Family. Zhang Xiaoman, after reading all known relic materials, now has a comprehensive understanding of relic exploration common sense.

"Ziwei, I promise I won’t break your bottle. The Lan Family has already promised me that everything I collect this time will be mine. If your bottle can accommodate it, I believe my harvest this time will be unprecedented! When the time comes, if there’s anything good, how could I forget you?"

Zhang Xiaoman said with a smile, not forgetting to portray a rosy picture to Ziwei.

He suddenly felt like he was coaxing a naive little girl. That bottle is so precious, holding all of Ziwei’s belongings, no wonder she’s so protective. It really is a bit difficult to trick her out of it.

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help shaking his head.

Regarding age, Ziwei is already over three hundred years old, while he’s only in his thirties. Speaking of which, he’s the child here.

If this were on Water Blue Star, Ziwei could already be considered at the "Ancestor" level...

Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaoman’s guilt dissipated a bit, and he looked at her with burning interest.

Ziwei frowned tightly, returning a skeptical and scrutinizing gaze.

"Ji Xing, why do I feel like you’re conning me again? Are you sure you’ll find something good? And share it with me?"

"Of course, if there’s nothing good, why would I rush over there foolishly? That place is so dangerous, it’s a relic left by an Extraordinary Level!"

Ziwei tilted her head, looking confused:

"But... didn’t you say last time that you’re going there to repay the Lan Family a favor?"

Zhang Xiaoman’s face darkened.

Well, he didn’t expect this woman to appear simple but actually think quickly. Had he known, he wouldn’t have told her this!

But as Ziwei is the introducer for both parties, Zhang Xiaoman still needs to consult her opinion on some matters, so sharing some information is inevitable.

"Alright, I promise you, as long as you lend me the Mortal Bottle, I’ll give you half a portion as a reward in return. How does that sound?"

"Half a portion of the resources?"

Ziwei’s face changed slightly at first, then shifted to disbelief.

Is it true?

She never expected Ji Xing would agree to share half of the resources with her; this stingy one finally decided to be generous!

But, thinking of Zhang Xiaoman’s Big Con Man reputation, she couldn’t help but doubt again. After a brief absent moment, she noticed an ambiguous smile on his face.

"Wait! Ji Xing, could there be a trick behind your words just now? Half the resources... half..."

Thinking of this, Ziwei suddenly slapped her forehead:

"Ji Xing! You mean ’half of one-tenth,’ right?"

Zhang Xiaoman nodded, saying:

"Even if it’s only half a portion, the quantity is still very large, and by then, the amount of resources you’ll receive will surely exceed your imagination."

Upon hearing this, Ziwei felt he made some sense. After a long period of inner struggle, she finally gritted her teeth and reluctantly handed the bottle to him.

"Ji Xing! You must be careful! This thing is really fragile!"

Half-dragging from Ziwei’s hand, Zhang Xiaoman took the Mortal Bottle, and immediately heard her worried voice echo in his ear.

"Ji Xing! Ji Xing! Make sure to preserve it well! All my belongings are inside!"

Zhang Xiaoman looked at the transparent little bottle in his hand, which looked like an ordinary glass bottle. Yet who would have thought, this is actually an artifact not even the powerful Elder Family like the Lan Family possesses.

Afterward, Zhang Xiaoman learned from Ziwei that the space within the Mortal Bottle was unlike the Original Realm universe; it required constant consumption of Spiritual Power to be maintained.

Usually, Ziwei uses the Spiritual Energy overflowing from her Cultivation to nurture it, while Zhang Xiaoman chooses to throw in a large amount of Spirit Stones, ensuring that it won’t run out of Spiritual Energy for a long time.

With the Mortal Bottle acquired, Zhang Xiaoman handled some other matters, transferred some things from his pre-prepared Space Ring into the Mortal Bottle, and after settling some organizational affairs, left the First Universe, heading to the agreed location with Lan Gu and others.

Actually, the spaceship he was on started its journey half a year ago, and he had left a Star Pattern Guide on the ship, so he didn’t need to be there all the time. Once the ship reached its destination, he could teleport over directly.

On the Lan Family Fleet, the Heavenly Storage Level Titan Battleship.

Zhang Xiaoman appeared without warning in a large room. If one looked closely, they would find a small Jade Plate placed on the table, engraved with the Star Alliance emblem.

The Heavenly Storage Level Battleship, the core flagship of the Lan Family Fleet, is an Overlord Level Titan Battleship, measuring 157 kilometers long, a colossal size that left Zhang Xiaoman shocked.

When this Titan Battleship sails through space, it shines like a small asteroid, with an intimidating aura that merely seeing it prevents anyone from thinking of resisting.

Zhang Xiaoman wasn’t new to space flagships; during the Phantom Spirit Clan rescue, he saw a derelict flagship on a Phantom Spirit planet.

That flagship was named "Dreadnought Battleship," already turned into an Insect Race nest. However, that Dreadnought Battleship was only 13 kilometers long, completely different in scale from the giant before him.
