    "Is there any mistake? Your father is also a big-dimensional businessman in the Ethereal Plane Chamber of Commerce. Didn't he leave you something?" Lin Jia looked at the crying Peter Pan with suspicion.

    "Your Excellency, you don't know much about the living form of our plane merchants. We are creatures that live in the space between planes. Although we have the ability to teleport between planes, we are also subject to restrictions.  It¡¯s very big. Maybe you think that the profits that plane merchants can get from trading between various planes are very huge profits.¡±

    Peter Pan spread his hands helplessly and explained: "But in fact, in order to survive, we have to continue to earn money or goods from businesses in exchange for necessary supplies for survival. So to put it simply, we plane merchants  They are running around in order to survive. Even the large plane merchants of the Ethereal Plane Chamber of Commerce, or even the astral plane merchants of the Astral Plane Chamber of Commerce, cannot have too much property to hoard and pass it on to the next generation."

    "In order to survive?" Lin Jia asked doubtfully: "Don't you plane merchants have a very long lifespan? What else do you need to maintain your lives?"

    "Yes, the life span of our plane merchants is very long. Compared with the upper limit of human life span of only 100 years, the average life span of our plane merchants is indeed very long, 10,000 years. But in the etheric plane and the astral plane,  In fact, it is a space unsuitable for life to survive. We plane merchants were born in a space like the etheric plane. From the day we were born, a certain energy in the etheric plane has been eroding our bodies all the time until  Until the life in us is exhausted.¡±

    Peter Pan said helplessly: "The relationship between us plane merchants and the spaces beyond the etheric plane, shadow plane, and star realm is just like the relationship between plants and the sun. The energy filled in the etheric plane is just like the relationship between plants and the sun.  Like the rays of the sun, we cannot survive without it, but excessive intake of that energy will harm our bodies, so we cannot completely leave the etheric plane and move to other planes to survive."

    Lin Jia understood and nodded.  To put it bluntly, plane merchants, creatures born in spaces outside the material plane, are like special amphibious creatures. They cannot live without "water", but they are always soaked in "water" and will be  Drown.

    Lin Jia is not interested in the "energy" that plane merchants cannot live without but will be eroded.  On the contrary, I am very interested in the kind of "material" that plane merchants constantly make money in exchange for.

    "You mean the core of life?" Peter Pan thought for a moment. Although this is the secret of the plane merchant, it is not impossible to tell Lin Jia, the cooperating lord of the material plane. After all, he will also be involved in this thing in the future.  , thought about it for a moment and said: "Yes. We keep walking in various planes to obtain materials and money, just to exchange with the merchants for the core of life to extend our lifespan."

    Because of their special life forms, although plane merchants have a lifespan of tens of thousands of years, if they do not replenish the "core of life", they will be eroded by the "energy" in the etheric plane for many years. Under normal circumstances, they can only  If you live for 500 years, you will run out of life and die.

    The ancient ancestors of plane merchants accidentally discovered a substance called the "core of life", which could repair their bodies eroded by energy and extend their lifespan.  However, this "core of life" is extremely precious and rare, and is only in the hands of a very small number of advanced beings in the star realm and some powerful beings such as some lords of the main material plane.

    If the plane merchants who do not have much combat power want to obtain this "core of life", they have to work hard to use their talents to teleport between planes and earn a lot of money by walking in large and small planes.  Materials and money are exchanged for what you need with the powerful being who possesses the "core of life".

    If that was all, forget it. Before they could calm down from the joy of longevity, the plane merchants discovered that although this "core of life" could extend their lives, it was like a drug. Every time they took it,  Their abilities can be improved by one level at a time.  But every time they advance to a level, their need for "core of life" will become higher!

    So they have to be like drug addicts, painfully constantly chasing to obtain more wealth in exchange for more quantity and higher quality "core of life" to maintain their lives.

    The survival mode of drinking poison to quench thirst has made plane merchants of higher and higher levels no longer able to meet their needs by just relying on their own trading methods of street vendors. Therefore, business organizations similar to the current plane chamber of commerce have emerged. Large plane merchants  Through convenient trade channels, a large number of low-level "cores of life" were exchanged to lure low-level merchants to join their own chambers of commerce and trading houses, collect the materials they provided as their own property, and then exchange them for high-level "cores of life".

    This way the big fish eats the small fish, and the small fish eats the shrimp.?It has existed for a long time, and there are many trading houses and chambers of commerce established by powerful large-scale merchants.  They also continued to merge with each other in the cruel business competition, and finally formed the "Ether Plane Chamber of Commerce" and the "Shadow Plane Chamber of Commerce", two plane merchant organizations that spread throughout the "Ether Plane" and "Shadow Plane".  Above it is the "Star Boundary Chamber of Commerce" organized by merchants from the great planes of the Star Boundary who have survived countless years of business competition and have reached a very high level.

    With the formation of the plane chamber of commerce system, plane merchants are getting more and more convenient in trade.  You just need to work hard to continuously accumulate wealth within your own abilities.  Just exchange it with the higher-level organization for the "core of life" needed to improve the "plane authority", instead of like in ancient times.  Even if you have enough wealth, it is difficult to find a seller who owns the "Core of Life".

    So this is the reason why Peter Pan, who is just a businessman on the lowest level of the plane, still doesn't have much assets even though he has been in business for thousands of years. His father has upgraded his plane authority to a businessman on a large plane.  He only has the ability to leave enough starting capital and memory inheritance to his descendants to inherit his bloodline. No more will be lost.

    And Peter Pan's father most likely died because he finally ran out of property and failed to save enough materials to purchase the high-level "Core of Life" in time. Only then did Peter Pan emerge from the hidden place of blood inheritance.  birth thing.

    Lin Jia, who felt that the planar merchants' method of passing on the family line was magical only after the father had given birth to a son, sighed. It seemed that there was no way to get a sum of gold coins from Peter Pan to meet the urgent needs, but the planar merchants did this.  It is not unreasonable to have a family planning policy that requires one to be born before one is born. It reduces business competitors in a disguised manner and saves the consumption of the already rare "core of life" as much as possible.

    "What's going on with the level of plane merchants?" Lin Jia thought that if he couldn't get funds from Peter Pan, then there should be no problem in borrowing some money from some big plane merchants through Peter Pan, so he asked the plane merchants again.  level issues.

    Peter Pan saw Lin Jia's thoughts, shook his head and said: "Our level of plane merchants only appeared after the formation of the plane chamber of commerce. We ourselves call this level plane authority. As I said before, we plane merchants  Although it is possible to teleport between planes, the limitations are very high. Like me, I have only taken the lowest level 1 life core. I have just passed the 500-year death limit danger, but I have not yet taken the advanced life core.  Plane merchants who upgrade their plane authority can only teleport in some small plane worlds in the demiplane, so they can only be regarded as level 1 plane merchants!"

    It took out a star-shaped pendant from its collar, opened it, and carefully handed it to Lin Jia: "This is the Level 2 Life Core that I worked hard for almost 3,000 years to save enough supplies. If it weren't for me now,  If you are poor and have nothing, you have already accepted it to increase your dimensional authority. The experience of some seniors tells us that if we are newbies and do not have enough assets to rashly increase their dimensional authority, it is very likely to speed up their own death."

    Before Lin Jia could see clearly, the motorcycle watch on his wrist suddenly sent out an alarm from the central system of  It takes a week to run! Please recycle it quickly!"

    Lin Jia and Peter Pan were both stunned. Lin Jia lowered his head and looked at the small piece of transparent crystal the size of a fingernail embedded in Peter Pan's star-shaped pendant. He looked up at Peter Pan in confusion: "This is to supplement balance."  An inert energy crystal block of cabin energy?¡±

    The green light emerging from Lin Jia's eyes frightened Peter Pan so he quickly took back the pendant and covered it with both hands. Lin Jia looked at Peter Pan greedily. What is the concept of a week of operating the base at full capacity?  A base that can now be filled with 100% energy for 20,000 gold coins will be depleted in about an hour if operated at full capacity, and that is without turning on some high-energy-consuming functions such as weapons and long-distance space flight.

    In other words, this small piece of level 2 "core of life" the size of a fingernail is equivalent to 3.36 million gold coins!
