Levi questioned Han Xing in the chat channel.
At this moment, another person called Five Celestial Thunders said, "Even we from the Lei Group were rejected when trying to trade with you. What do you want? Are you not interested in doing business anymore?"
Facing their questioning, Han Xing chuckled softly and said, "I don't have any intentions, I just don't want to trade with people from your Lei Group."
Other survivors keenly sensed that there was something unusual in Han Xing's words.
This powerful figure seems to be at odds with people from this Lei Group?
At this moment, they remembered that yesterday, the Lei Group was clamoring in the chat channel to boycott someone, and that person seemed to be Star River!
It's over... this group of fools offended the powerful figure, and now they're directly refusing to trade with you.
Many people silently mourned for the Lei Group members for a few seconds.
At this point, Levi also knew that Han Xing was holding a grudge from yesterday. He suppressed his anger and said in a low voice, "Kid, do you really need to be so petty?"
"Although we had conflicts before, it was just me alone. There's no need to implicate other people in the Lei Group, right?"
However, Han Xing laughed and replied, "Really? I recall yesterday, you Lei Group people jumped out as a group, clamoring to boycott me and not trade materials with me."
"Now congratulations, you've succeeded."
Levi was stunned for a moment, then said in a gloomy tone, "Star River, don't be too ruthless in everything you do. If you don't sell us water, the lives of dozens of Lei Group members will be on your hands!"
The atmosphere in the chat channel was very strange. This Levi directly dragged in the lives of dozens of people, trying to force Han Xing to sell water.
However, Han Xing sneered, "Levi, I've said, don't try to fool me with your tricks. Do you think moral blackmail is useful against me?"
"You are their leader; you should be responsible for your subordinates. Since the decision was yours, all the consequences arising from it are also yours to bear. If you can't bear it, it only proves your incompetence."
Having said that, Han Xing didn't want to waste more words with Levi and directly exited the chat channel.
Levi was left with a livid face, trembling with anger as he looked at the chat channel.
Meanwhile, other Lei Group members turned pale as paper.
...
At this time, in Han Xing's Sky Island Territory.
He squeezed out from a pile of materials.
Levi's rhetoric didn't affect him at all, even though he deliberately exaggerated the situation.
But Han Xing knew that although water resources were scarce in channel 107, some people definitely still had reserves.
Lei Group members could completely seek out these people for exchange; it's just that the cost would be higher, depending on whether Levi is willing to pay the price.
Shaking his head, Han Xing didn't further consider those people's issues.
Instead, he looked at his territory, which had nearly doubled in size again, and smiled, revealing a bright white grin.
Previously, his territory was 32 cubic meters; after merging with the Dark Elf's Sky Island, it expanded directly to 64 cubic meters.
An 8-meter by 8-meter large platform floated in the air.
Though the space is large, the massive amount of materials still made the platform extremely crowded and chaotic.
Han Xing managed to make his way out of the material pile, finding two vacant spots on the edge.
Then, he glanced at the blueprint section and the requirements for crafting a storage box.
[Storage Box Blueprint (Green)]
[Materials Needed: Spirit Core*50, Refined Iron*100, Mithril*10, Rare Earth*100.]
[Success Rate 10% (Due to Divine-level Craftsman Talent, success rate already at 100%)]
"Hmm? It actually requires mithril as a material."
Han Xing pondered, "The source of mithril is quite scarce; aside from the small chance of finding some in a Bronze Treasure Chest, you can only rely on luck to find a few pieces of Secret Silver Ore."
"I'm not sure if there's any in channel 107 now."
Han Xing was unsure, but when he returned to the chat channel and expressed his intention to acquire mithril, he still got responses from many people.
Finally, he successfully used 2000 milliliters of Spiritual Spring Water to exchange for 21 pieces of mithril.
Indeed, there is strength in numbers. Even if the odds are low, there are always a few lucky Emperors of Luck who can obtain these materials.
With the materials for the storage box gathered, Han Xing directly clicked on craft.
A dazzling green light flashed, and a portion of the material mountain on the ground disappeared.
A 180-second progress bar appeared before his eyes.
Since it was a crafting tool, it required some longer time.
After waiting for 6 minutes, a system prompt came.
[Successfully crafted Storage Box (Green) *2]
[Storage Box (Green), Quality - Fine, Storage Space 350, Special Effect - Expansion (Storage space additionally increased by 50)]
[Storage Box (Green), Quality - Rare, Storage Space 400, Special Effect - Intermediate Expansion (Storage space additionally increased by 100)]
Two storage boxes, one of Fine Quality and one of Rare Quality, with the bonus effects counted, added up to an additional 750 storage slots!
The Divine-level Craftsman Talent once again demonstrated its powerful effect!
"Great, now the space is more than enough!"
As soon as those words dropped.
Bang!
A hollow thud, and two refined iron storage boxes appeared in front of Han Xing, each approximately two meters long and one meter wide.
Since the boxes were entirely made of refined iron, they appeared with a black effect, with white patterns formed by mithril running through them.
Han Xing stuffed the small mountain-like piles of materials into the storage boxes.
Moments later, the territory became spacious once again.
Han Xing dusted off his hands and opened the sale channel once more to start selling Spiritual Spring Water.
Channel 107 was rocked once again.
Many people eagerly scrambled to trade materials with Han Xing. Within just a few seconds, over a hundred trade requests appeared.
In fact, compared to the first time, the fervor of trading was even greater!
Han Xing clicked on the trade points so much that his hand nearly went limp; he was busy beyond measure.
[Trade successful, you obtained a Furniture Blueprint Collection; you lost 500ml of Spiritual Spring Water.]
[Trade successful, you obtained a Beast Hide Short Boots Blueprint (Green); you lost 300ml of Spiritual Spring Water.]
[Trade successful, you obtained a Warrior Pendant Blueprint (Green); you lost 500ml of Spiritual Spring Water.]
...
As Han Xing adjusted the trade conditions, this time he removed all sorts of equipment and instead collected various blueprints, immediately skipping redundant ones.
This grand trading scene continued for nearly two hours, and Han Xing felt as though his fingers were about to cramp from all the tapping.
Once the final trade was complete, Han Xing, as if having fought a great battle, directly collapsed to the ground.
However, despite the fatigue, a look of excitement appeared on Han Xing's face.
After all, who wouldn't be thrilled to see a dozen skill books, and dozens of equipment and weapon blueprints sitting quietly in their backpack?
Not only that, but besides these items, at the edge of the territory, four storage boxes occupied eight square units.
Just now, with the materials filling up, Han Xing had temporarily made two more.
Now, with four storage boxes and nearly three thousand storage slots, it was filled to the brim with various materials!
