"Yes, the peak master we serve on Bright Peak is Venerable Bright Peak," the guide said with a smile.
Ye Yang nodded, then suddenly remembered the assassin and quickly asked, "What about the alien spy who tried to assassinate me?"
"He's already self-destructed." The guide shook his head and said, "He had already started self-destructing before the Peak Master made his move. So the Peak Master only contained the energy released during his self-destruction and threw him out, and was unable to capture him to extract more information."
Ye Yang nodded. Such a decisive self-destruction must mean he was a soul slave.
"We're here, this is it."
The two walked along a long corridor that was more than ten meters wide, and finally reached the middle of the corridor, where there was a large gate that was hundreds of meters high and tens of meters wide.
Beyond the main gate lies a bright and spacious hall, decorated in a simple and rustic style, yet filled with a radiant glow, as if constantly bathed in the morning light.
Ye Yang looked ahead and saw a white-robed figure sitting on the throne in the center of the hall. Although his face and expression were not visible, he exuded a gentle and magnificent aura of light.
Standing in rows on both sides were dozens of immortals, each with a different aura.
Ye Yang quickly lowered his head, walked to the center of the hall, and respectfully bowed: "Ye Yang greets Peak Master!"
"Ye Yang".
Venerable Mingding spoke, his voice gentle:
"To have passed the eighth level of the Bridge to Heaven before the first qualifying battle, you're quite impressive. If I weren't not following the 'Cosmic School' path, I might have even considered taking you as my disciple."
Ye Yang was taken aback, and quickly said respectfully, "I am deeply honored by the Peak Master's kindness. I am overwhelmed with gratitude."
"Haha, no need to be so formal. Your teacher, Bai Mo Wang, was someone I mentored back then, so you're my junior." Venerable Mingding smiled and said, "In the end, the reason you were assassinated this time was because my men failed to supervise you properly."
"As compensation, and as a celebration of your miraculous survival, I have two treasures here; you may choose one."
As he spoke, Venerable Mingding waved his hand, and two beams of light, one purple and one blue, appeared in front of Ye Yang.
"Two treasures. One is the 'Purple Soul Fruit,' which, while not directly increasing comprehension, can greatly enhance your consciousness and thinking ability. Since you're on the path of an illusionary martial artist, this should be of considerable help to you."
"The second treasure is two cubic meters of 'Phantom Sea Star Sand.' This is a special mineral produced from a secret cosmic realm called 'Phantom Sea.'"
It possesses natural hallucinogenic effects and is highly compatible with the power of the world and the power of ethereal immortality.
"When you become the Realm Lord in the future, you will need to create your own secret techniques and tailor-make weapons to suit your needs. Adding a little Illusionary Sea Star Sand will greatly enhance your ability to cast illusion spells."
Venerable Mingding said:
"Their value is all between one million Chaos Yuan; you can choose one of them."
Ye Yang looked surprised. A treasure worth around one million Chaos Yuan? This Venerable Mingding really thinks highly of him.
The immortals around them watched this scene with envy in their eyes as they looked at Ye Yang.
The weakest among them were all Marquis-level Immortals, so naturally they didn't care much about these treasures worth 100 million Chaos Yuan. However, the way Venerable Mingding treated Ye Yang showed that he valued Ye Yang extremely.
To be favored by a cosmic being is truly enviable.
"Thank you, Peak Master."
Ye Yang looked at the two treasures in front of him, one of which enhanced his soul, consciousness, and thinking.
One is that it is a valuable raw material for weapons.
When asked, Babata wasn't sure either.
Because these two treasures are indeed of comparable value, a great being like the Universe Venerable could purchase them for only around 100 million Chaos Yuan. However, those who are granted titles of King or Marquis could spend several times more to buy them through auctions or other channels.
Both the Purple Soul Fruit and the Illusionary Sea Star Sand are precious and have their own uses.
"Ye Yang, you decide for yourself. If you're really unsure, choose the Illusionary Sea Star Sand to prepare for the weapons you'll forge in the future," Babata said.
Ye Yang had already made his choice.
"I've realized that what I truly need in the face of the threats I'm facing now is a strong sense of awareness and will!"
"Souls, illusions, and enslavement techniques are the only ways to kill me completely."
"We must make up for it as much as possible!"
He bowed and said, "Peak Master, I choose the Purple Soul Fruit!"
"Alright." Venerable Mingding waved his hand, and the purple light fell into Ye Yang's hand.
As soon as Ye Yang got his hands on the Purple Soul Fruit, he felt a chill creeping over him.
But the chill did not numb him; on the contrary, it made Ye Yang feel that the touch of his palms had become much more sensitive.
"Go on. This assassination attempt failed, and the alien races will definitely pay more attention to you. Be more careful in the future," Venerable Mingding kindly reminded Ye Yang before letting him leave.
After submitting the items required for his cultivation mission at Bright Peak, Ye Yang waited for the spaceship that would take him away.
"Your Highness Ye Yang, we will now take you directly to Dragon Tower Star," the crew member on the spaceship said.
Ye Yang nodded, looking at the countless cliffs behind him that still floated silently in the void:
"Our five-year adventure at Void Cliffs has come to an end."
The next target is Dragon Tower Star, which is also located in the Primordial Secret Realm.
This is a mysterious and ancient planet that was born in the Primordial Realm. Nourished by the dense cosmic primordial mist of the realm, it is incredibly vast and has given birth to all kinds of powerful dragons.
On this ancient planet, there is the "Dragon Tower," a sacred site for countless dragons, which contains some kind of secret.
This is also the great secret that Ye Yang is going to explore during this cultivation mission.
"Let's use the Purple Soul Fruit first."
For rare treasures like the Purple Soul Fruit, the lower the grade, the better the effect, provided it can be digested.
Ye Yang took out the purple fruit he had just obtained.
The fruit has a special wax coating that tightly seals in the special energy and substances inside, preventing the medicinal properties from leaking out.
Only a slight chill seeped through the fruit wax.
"It's very simple to use; just swallow it directly."
As you put it in your mouth, your teeth gently crush the waxy coating on the purple fruit, and a gush of cold juice flows out, accompanied by a burst of cool sensation that quickly fills your entire head.
Ye Yang felt the cool aura gradually rising, which was originally going to ascend into his sea of consciousness, but it was intercepted by the original core he had deliberately placed in his head.
As the primordial core spun rapidly, continuously absorbing the special energy and matter released by the Purple Soul Fruit, Ye Yang's consciousness became increasingly active, and his thinking became clearer and more focused.
The entire Purple Soul Fruit melted in his mouth very quickly, before he even had a chance to swallow it.
"I can feel my soul slowly absorbing these icy energies, and every now and then I feel a shiver."
The absorption time is relatively long, and although the increased effect diminishes over time, the duration is quite long.
Ye Yang estimated that in such a short time, his thinking speed had increased several times over, and his memory had also improved significantly.
In the future, when inspiration strikes again, I will be better able to seize that opportunity!
"His consciousness strength has reached a level comparable to a sixth-tier World Lord!"
"And it's still increasing; perhaps it will eventually reach the peak of the Realm Lord level!"
During his fifty years on the Blood Continent, Ye Yang also intentionally honed his consciousness and will through the baleful aura.
Previously, after the Golden Horn clone used the innate secret technique "Enhancement", his consciousness was enhanced, reaching a level comparable to the first level of a World Lord.
But at this moment, even in his normal state, his consciousness strength was comparable to that of a sixth-level World Lord.
"Very good. In this way, I will be more confident in dealing with illusions, pressure attacks, and soul enslavement in the future."
With some time still to go before reaching Dragon Tower Star, Ye Yang continued his cultivation.
at the same time.
A hidden planet in the Cuilang Starfield—Drop of Water—also welcomed a special guest, who was also the last guest.
Dripstone Star is a renowned pleasure destination among the "upper class" in the Cuilang Starfield.
Here, you can enjoy almost anything that excites you. As long as you have money, plenty of money, no morality or imperial law will stand in your way when it comes to seeking thrills and pleasure.
Here, as long as you are a customer and can pay the corresponding price, all your actions will be forgiven.
Everyone put on a mask, and everyone took it off.
"Sir, please come this way." The beautiful waitress carefully and respectfully led a warrior wearing a blood-red mask and blood-red armor into the lobby of a building.
It's quite rare to see someone dressed as a warrior in such a luxurious setting as Drip Star.
But that's the customer's prerogative; the waiters have no right or guts to say anything.
They didn't even dare to give the customers strange looks. Because any action that displeased the customers could turn them from relatively safe service staff into objects of amusement for these customers.
"Hey buddy, isn't that the classic look of that 'Deadly Killer'?"
At this moment, a young nobleman wearing a purple mask, smelling slightly of alcohol, and leading a half-orc girl in a black mask and black collar crawling on the ground, approached the warrior and kept looking him over.
"Hehe, that's interesting, you really do a good job of impersonating her."
The young master smiled and, quite rudely, tapped the alloy armor.
The Deadly Killer is a very famous figure in the Cui Lang Starfield.
Nearly 150 years ago, the infamous killer was so notorious that he could stop children from stomping their toes at night.
But a battle of geniuses transformed this reputation from infamy into a legend and a celebrated story.
The ten major organizations became villains and background characters in the story.
However, the Crimson Warrior did not respond to the young master's words.
He glanced at the half-orc girl being led like a dog, her tail wagging mechanically.
"Oh, you seem to care about her quite a bit." Seeing the blood-red warrior's gaze, the young master couldn't help but show off with a hint of pride, "This is my latest masterpiece."
"A true citizen of the universe, I will fund her education and watch her grow from a little girl into a mature adult."
"And I've already purchased a customized service for Drip Star, intending to kidnap her on her coming-of-age day. When she finds out I'm her buyer, haha, that'll be the most wonderful moment!"
"It's so satisfying to shatter all the beauty in a young girl's life and enjoy her shock and despair!"
The young master smiled:
"Next, I plan to modify her and let her cook her own body; this is the most fun part—"
puff!
A head flew up, landed on the ground some distance away, and rolled twice.
