Chapter 3: Poet is a Promising Profession (2/2)

In the sacred temple of the Holy Court on the Zhongheng Continent, a mysterious instrument stood tall, resembling a globe.

However, this instrument was composed of numerous concentric circles, forming a beautiful, symmetrical sphere.

The instrument stood over ten meters tall, occupying nearly half of the temple, and was known as the legendary “Wheel of Mystery.”

The Wheel of Mystery, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly trembled and emitted a brilliant golden light, illuminating the entire temple.

“This is it! This is the power of the Mystery… It must be the poem of the Mystery that has been passed down!” exclaimed a silver-armored guardian, his face filled with excitement.

“Good heavens, it’s been six years since the last time, when Old Man Mei wrote ‘The Century’s Wind.’ I wonder who wrote it this time and managed to pass the test of the Wheel of Mystery!” another silver-armored guardian marveled.

“Hurry, hurry, hurry! Go to the Silent World Network and see what kind of poem it is this time. This is a chance to increase our understanding of the Mystery!”

…

As the Wheel of Mystery emitted its radiant glow, a poem titled “The Farthest Distance in the World” gradually spread throughout the continent.

Meanwhile, Qi Ji was pondering a question: what price should he set for this poem?

“Literature is priceless, but I won’t set it too high. Let’s say… 666 Sol?” Qi Ji thought to himself.

Qi Ji added the price of 666 Sol to the poem’s reading conditions, and according to the rules of the Wheel of Mystery, only those who paid the price could read the poem.

Just a few minutes after Qi Ji published the poem, he received a system notification from the Silent World Network.

He quickly discovered that his poem, or rather, the poem he had plagiarized, had passed the Mystery test and was rated as a six-star poem.

Qi Ji was amazed by the efficiency of the Wheel of Mystery and couldn’t help but admire the great poet from his previous life, whose work could still shine in this world.

Qi Ji checked the prices of one-star poems on the network and found that they were around 100 Sol. He thought that setting the price of his six-star poem at 600 Sol was not excessive.

…

The entire continent’s poetry scene was shaken that day, as a six-star poem, “The Farthest Distance in the World,” was born.

It had been nearly ten years since a six-star poem had appeared on the continent, and this new poem’s emergence excited countless people. Thousands of poetry enthusiasts ignored the 666 Sol reading condition and chose to buy the poem.

Some might wonder, wouldn’t it be enough for just one person to buy the poem and then share it with others? However, that was not the case.

Only with the assistance of the Wheel of Mystery’s power could one deeply understand the Mystery, and this mechanism was based on a paid foundation.

In other words, without paying, one could not become enlightened.

In a luxurious, classical villa in the S District of Starlight’s Fengqing City, an old man with white hair was excitedly praising the poem.

“What a great poem! It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such a wonderful work. The farthest distance in the world is not that it’s impossible to find, but that it’s destined to be unreachable. What a profound and philosophical poem!”

The old man, named Ka Mei, was a famous poet and a veteran general.

During the invasion of the mountain sea beasts, Ka Mei had turned the tide of the battle and was one of the most revered and admired people in the Starlight Country.

At this moment, Ka Mei was curious about the creator of this masterpiece and checked the author’s name.

“Miracle Creator? It seems that this is a newly emerged genius poet! The nickname is also very meaningful.” Ka Mei smiled.

…

“2983666, 3067238… 10003980.” Qi Ji’s eyes widened as he looked at his skyrocketing Sol balance on the Jingjie Network.

The numbers continued to rise, showing no signs of slowing down.

It wasn’t until two hours later that the growth finally slowed down and stabilized.

Qi Ji took a look and was stunned.

“63 million Sol! I only plagiarized one poem!”

“This world is so wonderful, I’m going to be shameless.” Qi Ji said to himself.

Qi Ji didn’t notice that a faint, white, mist-like energy was quietly entering his body, slowly improving his physical condition.

This energy was the power of faith, which was naturally generated when someone admired or revered something or someone.

The stronger the person, the more faith energy they could generate.

This was a unique law on the Saint Lan Star, but the absorption rate of faith energy was usually very low, around 1%.

Therefore, a small amount of faith energy had a limited effect, at most making one feel refreshed for a while.

However, Qi Ji possessed a talent that even he didn’t know about – the Great Thousand Spirit Eyes, which he had previously thought was just a low-level golden finger.

Although the Great Thousand Spirit Eyes were still in their initial stage, they could increase the absorption rate of faith energy to 10%.

In other words, Qi Ji’s absorption speed was ten times that of an ordinary person.

Qi Ji’s body was slowly undergoing changes, and it was clear that he had received a significant amount of faith energy from his enthusiastic fans.

However, Qi Ji was completely unaware of the changes that the faith energy had brought to his body.

He was too busy enjoying the joy brought by the huge amount of Sol and didn’t have the mind to care about the changes in his body.
