Chapter 934 - 754: Wanderer

This is a person clad in a wide grey robe, their figure completely enveloped within, appearing both real and illusory.

The hood completely covers the head, obscuring the face, showing only their special grey eyes, which are dual-pupiled.

From ancient times, those with dual pupils most easily become heroes, geniuses, and mighty figures.

Not to mention, each of his four pupils reveals a different astonishing phenomenon.

Thousands of stars speedily shift; mountain collapses and tsunamis erupt simultaneously; a fire descends, destroying everything; and flowers, birds, insects, fish, humans, and demons cycle through reincarnation...

Upon seeing this person, Lou Yi’s scalp almost exploded.

The aura of the other brought the feeling to him akin to an ordinary person, without any anomalies.

This instead revealed his terrifying and unfathomable nature, his realm definitely far surpassing mine.

He regretted why he needed to stare at the other.

Such figures with extraordinary powers are extremely sensitive to gazes, and anyone daring to spy would have nowhere to hide.

At this moment, the gaze of the hooded figure turned over, directly staring at the phantasmal image of the half ear.

After observing for a few moments, he softly spoke: "Interesting."

’Could it be, he saw my true body?’ Lou Yi was horrified inside.

Uncertain whether it was due to the influence of the hooded figure.

The sky full of lightning and rain gradually lessened, soon entirely stopping.

Noticing the hooded one’s gaze relentlessly pursuing him.

Lou Yi thought for a moment, then simply released the voidification state.

The half ear began stretching and expanding again, quickly restoring to its original form.

A man appearing in his twenties, with distinct features between his brows, carrying a slightly heroic air.

"Junior Lou Yi, pays respect to senior." Lou Yi returned to his true form, immediately bowing to the hooded figure.

The hooded man’s dual pupils fixed on him, upon seeing Lou Yi’s transformation, repeated the previous word.

"Interesting."

Then, he added: "Unexpectedly, in such a barren place, someone like you would emerge, solidly laying the foundation like this.

Even the younger generation of peerless geniuses from the immortal sects housing True Immortals and True Gods might not match you at the same realm."

The words weren’t fully comprehensible to Lou Yi, but it seemed without malice.

Lou Yi boldly asked: "I wonder, where does senior hail from?"

"Me? Just a humble wanderer from the Eternal Star Realm," the hooded man said.

’Eternal Star Realm? What place is this?’ Lou Yi was utterly bewildered.

Seemingly noticing Lou Yi’s confusion, the hooded figure continued: "My true body still remains in the Eternal Star Realm, what you see is just a strand of thought.

Today, sensing that this world may hold the opportunity I need... well, that’s it then, let the true body come once!"

As soon as his voice fell.

The entire dark space where Lou Yi was located suddenly became bright.

As if transitioning from absolute night to daylight, then reverting to normal in an instant.

Lou Yi instinctively closed his eyes.

Upon reopening them, the hooded man was already several meters away.

He still wore the same dilapidated grey robe, yet his visage became clearly visible, the illusory figure turning real.

An extremely ordinary middle-aged man’s face, excluding the distinct dual pupils, was one that would go unnoticed in a crowd.

However, he still carried a hint of confusion on his face.

"Upon sensing, there’s neither Immortal Gods’ legacy here nor any wondrous treasures that compare to an abandoned place—what opportunity might there be?"

His gaze returned to Lou Yi, then laughed: "Also, an opportunity might not be a thing, it can also be a person.

Since we are destined, if there’s anything you want, feel free to tell me."

’Is this possible?’ Lou Yi was utterly shocked.

Is this really a stroke of luck?

Fearing deception, Lou Yi quickly deferred: "Senior, one should not gain benefits without toil, I have no desires."

"Why? Young friend, you don’t wish to weave destiny with me?"

Upon hearing this, Lou Yi’s hairs stood on end.

Thinking it over, considering the other has stated so, further hesitation would be laughable?

At worst, the true body perishes, but there’s still the clone to endure.

Thus, he spoke: "In that case, junior will defer to your kind offer.

I require the Seven-Orifice Spirit Rhinoceros Fruit, Cold Star Marrow, Earth, Spirit Transformation Stone, Yin-Yang Lotus..."

Lou Yi directly listed everything he needed, totaling several dozens, each extremely rare.

Seeing Lou Yi being so ’unreserved,’ the gray-robed man’s expression turned odd.

"Young friend, most of what you seek, I do not possess at the moment, but I do have a few."

Three beams of light flew from his sleeve, landing precisely in Lou Yi’s hands.

"Young friend, let’s bid farewell here, I hope to see you soon escape this cage..."

After speaking, the hooded man’s figure once again became illusory, vanishing into mid-air.

As if he never appeared.

Lou Yi looked at his hands, holding three treasures.

A floating mist that condenses without dispersing, its soil-yellow and dark gold hues intertwined, carrying a significant weight, with thousands of pounds of heft implied.

An irregular piece of dark green metal, about palm size, occasionally interlaced with natural law markings, fusing Tao and principle.

A small black herb, its surface consistently evaporated with black mist upward, emitting ’sizzling’ corrosion sound.

According to the response from the attribute panel, he instantly identified them as Profound Yellow Qi, Spirit Transformation Iron, and Curse Grass.

Corresponding to three talents: Voidification, Devour, Taunt.

Now, in this boundless dark space, voidification and devour talents are exceptionally vital.

Lou Yi was worried about how to enhance endurance and defensive abilities; it’s truly timely help.

He immediately advanced these three talents.

Voidification (Beginner 0/100+1 Profound Yellow Qi) → Voidification (Proficient 0/300+1 Profound Yellow Mother Qi)

Unfamiliar memories emerged in his mind...

An immense wave of energy surged into his body, and the introduction of the voidification talent underwent alterations.

Voidification: Allows the body to convert a certain degree from tangible to intangible, thereby reducing physical, mental, and magical attacks’ damage. The level of voidification negatively correlates with Qi-Blood, permitting only minimal effective attacks during voidification.

The original voidification talent couldn’t execute any attacks during usage.

But the upgraded voidification talent allows minimal effective attacks.

Of course, the most significant change is that the level of voidification has increased, enduring more massive assaults.

Devour (Proficient 0/2000+1 Spirit Transformation Iron) → Devour (Mastery 0/6000+1 Taotie Essence Blood)

The description of the Devour talent hasn’t changed, yet the ability is surely greatly enhanced.

Devour: While not exceeding the physical limits, enables the consumption of energy and matter, converting a portion for personal use...

Taunt (Mastery 0/500+1 Curse Grass) → Taunt (Minor Achievement 0/2000+1 Asura Bone)

Taunt: The ability to incite the target’s fury and other negative emotions, distinctly affecting their mind and judgment.

Taunt talent’s description altered from ’slightly affecting’ to ’distinctly affecting.’

This talent has significant combat capabilities, and Lou Yi is eager for its future performance.

After enhancing the three talents, Lou Yi began contemplating the recent events.

’Wanderer, Eternal Star Realm, True Immortals and True Gods... seems like beyond the Vast Sea Realm there are even broader and fascinating worlds.’

Yet for now, searching for the way back is more practical.

Due to the substantial boost of devour and voidification talents.

The dark space’s various ’disasters’ have become difficult to impose devastating harm on Lou Yi.

He can focus on finding space nodes.

The day to return to the Vast Sea Realm is drawing closer.
