BXBX NOVEL Chapter 160 - Downgrade
Looking at the several options to customize, Shane noticed that he could almost change everything.
From upgrading to downgrading, everything was possible and only one section couldn\'t be adjusted as per his wish.
\'→ Affinities to create earth, water, wind […] with mana included\' could at most be reduced to \'Basic-Affinities\' to create soil, ores-[...] and magma\' and Shane estimated that they were the most basic affinities required to create a barren planet with a molten core.
He was not sure how exactly it worked, but mana could do everything and Shane just accepted it as it was because thinking too much about it would have made him go crazy.
After adjusting everything according to his desire, the price skyrocketed to a huge figure s when he changed the "Required time to blossom" from 1000 years to 2 months, only to decrease at an even faster speed, when he adjusted the other sections accordingly.

Now, the world seed was customized according to Shane\'s preferences and only the planet size was left as it is because Kia had asked him to leave it untouched.
According to her, he could awaken the mana heart once he had enough resources, while the same applied to the ecosystem, even if he thought that [Stage-0] ecosystem was more than enough for him to survive.
However, when Kia told him that there was a possibility for him to use the generated oxygen within his world to breathe if he were to enter an area where the oxygen supply was cut off, his eyes brightened up.
Binding the world seed to his soul and fusing with it meant that they became one, and it would be weird if he would be unable to use the oxygen generated within, which caused him to feel excited.
As long as he upgraded the Ecosystem, he might be able to enter Dimensions where no human or other race that had to breathe once in a while could venture inside.
Smiling, Shane could only look at the price in hope, when he had to squint his eyes once again.
[Customized system world seed]→100,000,000 gold coins
Looking at the price, his aunt could also see it which caused her to exclaim happily.
When this happened, Shane couldn\'t help but look at her weirdly and only after calming down could she explain what was going on, not without teasing her young student
"You dumbo! The world seed you want to purchase may be only the most basic one but it still has a size of 200,000km in diameter and only 2 months to gather enough mana to blossom!! Before that, the required time to blossom was 1000 years!!
In my opinion, either decreasing its size or prolonging the time required to blossom would be enough to drastically reduce the price by a thousandfold.
I don\'t know how many gold coins you have right now but if you can\'t find a perfect solution, just prolong the period the world seed requires to blossom!
My offer of a larger beast sealing card or miniature world is still valid and shouldn\'t influence you in making this decision!
Maybe, your choice right now will change something drastically!"
Aunt Kia looked way too excited for Shane to take her seriously and he only listened to her first few sentences that sounded reasonable.
It would be weird for the world seed to accumulate enough mana to start blossoming after 2 months when it took 1000 years previously without having any other drawbacks.
If he didn\'t adjust the other sections, the price would be several billion or even worse and he was only glad that he had received a huge discount as an Apprentice stage student and the self-earned tag.
Adjusting the planet size it could reach 100,000 km in diameters, Shane noticed that the price went down to 10,000,000 gold coins which caused him to smile as he wanted to further decrease it when a sudden thought struck him.
\'With a larger planet, the mana heart and ecosystem will require more resources to upgrade, but they will also produce much more in quantity, right?….If aunt Kia\'s intel, about being able to use the world seed\'s accumulated mana for oneself was true, the mana heart\'s capabilities are also important….\'
Shane was not sure if his train of thoughts was correct and asked his aunt about it, who could only think about it for a moment when she shook her head in denial.
Planets that received a mana heart from the system released the same amount of mana, and the only difference in the same stage would be the mana heart\'s quality.
As such, his thought was slightly wrong as he estimated that it was mandatory for the mana heart\'s quality to increase if the world was too large for a mana heart with a lower quality to envelop completely.
However, after his aunt denied this, Shane immediately continued to adjust it several times before he reached a satisfying price that was not too high for him to reach.
[Customized system world seed]→100,000 gold coins

____________________
Under normal circumstances earning 100,000 gold coins for a single Apprentice stage would be an enormous feat.
Furthermore, nobody would remain long enough at this stage to even care about a customized system world seed because it was simply useless for most and a waste of precious resources.
It was bold for Shane to even think about purchasing such an expensive and large customized world seed only to create a place for Umbra and his future tamed beasts.
However, he still wanted to have his own world without any further reasons than he already thought of.
As such, he might adjust the planet size later if his funds were not enough, which shouldn\'t be the problem.
After he and his aunt finished adjusting everything, creating a major downgraded world seed that would turn into a barren world, so that he might be able to afford it, he summoned another holographic screen in which he opened PrimWeb.
His aunt did the same before they started to research the price for variant elemental subterra centipedes at the Elite stage, Awakened stage, and Peak-Awakened stage.
After that was done, both started to research the price for rainbow subterra centipedes which were the most valuable carcasses he had.
This was not surprising and once everything was done, he left PrimWeb and entered his shop [NoPainNoGain] with its four vacancies to exhibit items.
Putting the centipede carcasses inside, Shane could only lament that he didn\'t have enough vacancies, which he changed by purchasing another two vacancies when he heard a notification telling him that the first large batch of elemental crystals had been sold.
With all centipede carcasses exhibited in his shop, he just added the Marean race that was a basic race with an extremely strong mana control and sensitivity, their only drawback being their feeble physique.
As such, the Marean race had the highest demand in strong armors and materials to manufacture endurable garments.
Not long after he opened the shop to the Marean race, everything was automatically sold which was probably due to one of the many system functions that purchased filtered goods at a certain grade according to their quality and estimated price as long as they were not too expensive.
After all the carcasses were sold, Shane decided to look at his finances and his eyes widened with an overjoyed expression covering his face.
