Chapter 7 Tuoba Ancient God (5000 words, please subscribe)_3
Lin Yuan saw him thus far as a being only inferior to the Xia Qin Supreme Being among all the people he had encountered.
“Sizhong Ancient God.”
Lin Yuan said.
“Galaxy Master.”
The Sizhong Ancient God also said with a smile. Continue your journey on My Virtual Library Empire
He had none of the airs of a Tier 11 Ancient God.
The two exchanged pleasantries for a while.
Then they got to the main topic.
“I wonder, Galaxy Master, why do you wish to see Tuoba? What matter brings you here?” asked Sizhong Ancient God.
“I have a good friend who was following the evolution path of the Tuoba Ancient God, but recently, his Spirit Will vanished. Through Causal Sensing, I confirmed it happened on Tuoba Ancient God’s turf,”
Lin Yuan did not conceal the details and spoke openly.
“I see,” Sizhong Ancient God suddenly realized.
Immediately, his brows slightly furrowed: “That old fellow Tuoba, his lifespan should not be much longer, I estimate he will forcefully attempt the Ultimate within a billion years.”
A Tier 11 powerhouse can slow their own flow of time, achieving an ‘eternal’ state, yet it is only a temporary solution.
Actually, the lifespan of a Tier 11 powerhouse still slowly fades away. Tuoba Ancient God was born at the dawn of the universe, having experienced countless eons.
Even by slowing the time around his body, his remaining lifespan won’t be much.
To continue living, his only choice is to attempt a leap to Tier 12 before the end of his life.
“A forceful attempt at the Ultimate?” Lin Yuan was somewhat surprised.
“But why would Tuoba Ancient God take away the Spirit Will of my friend? He is only Sixth Rank,” Lin Yuan expressed his confusion.
“Hahaha, Galaxy Master, you don’t know this,” Sizhong Ancient God laughed. “We Ancient Gods are inherently powerful, leading to a weakness in our Spirit Will.”
“I suspect Tuoba took away your friend’s Spirit Will intending to insert himself into your friend’s memories, thereby experiencing a weak and powerless life to refine his Spirit Will,”
“Typically, such insertions are chosen for lives that share high similarities with one’s own, probably why your friend was selected by Tuoba,”
Sizhong Ancient God explained.
“So that’s how it is,” Lin Yuan nodded.
For those aiming for the Ultimate Leap, Spirit Will must not be the weak link. For ancient Tier 11 beings, occasionally stepping into the life of someone considerably weaker and controlled by fate is a unique experience that benefits the transformation of the Spirit Will.
“This should not be difficult.”
“With me negotiating in between, there should be no major problem,”
Sizhong Ancient God said. For a Tier 11 Ancient God, this type of Spirit Will was not irreplaceable.
Couldn’t they just replace it with another if one was lost?
“Thank you, Sizhong Ancient God,” Lin Yuan said earnestly.
“Not at all.”
Sizhong Ancient God was pleased; he was looking forward to this very word from Lin Yuan.
“I will contact Tuoba Ancient God right away.”
Sizhong Ancient God did not forget to take care of official business.
…
A moment later.
A virtual network space, temporarily constructed here, revealed a gaunt figure.
This gaunt figure faintly exuded an indescribable aura, and his face was blurred, making it impossible to discern his features clearly.
“Tuoba, you’ve arrived,” Sizhong Ancient God looked towards the gaunt figure and immediately introduced: “This is the Galaxy Master.”
“As I’ve told you, the Spirit Will you took belongs to a friend of the Galaxy Master. From my point of view, it’s not strictly necessary for you, is it?”
Sizhong Ancient God said.
“Galaxy Master,” Tuoba Ancient God did not regard Sizhong Ancient God but scrutinized Lin Yuan and said with a smile, “Even an old fellow like me has heard of the repute of the Galaxy Master. Quite remarkable indeed!”
“It’s just a reputation,” Lin Yuan shook his head and said.
Without becoming a Supreme Being and escaping the River of Time, no matter how exceptional the talent, it holds little significance.
“It’s different, Galaxy Master; you have the backing of Human Civilization, and nine Supreme Beings favor you. Your hope to make the Ultimate Leap in the future is much greater than for us old fellows,”
Tuoba Ancient God spoke: “With the Galaxy Master’s talent and qualifications, you will undoubtedly receive the highest attention and resources from Human Civilization, something those of us without a tribe can only envy.”
“The Ultimate Leap? It seems too distant for me,” Lin Yuan’s brow slightly furrowed.
He was currently only Ninth Rank, with the Tenth Rank ahead, and then the Eleventh Rank after that.
With two Great Realms to cross, Lin Yuan was indeed far from making the Ultimate Leap.
“Tuoba Ancient God.”
“I’ll speak plainly,”
Lin Yuan thought for a moment and then said, “The Spirit Will you took belongs to a good friend of mine. Just return it to me, and we can discuss terms.”
Lin Yuan had never thought to have Tuoba Ancient God return Fang Qing’s Spirit Will unconditionally.
But the cost was probably not much, just a Sixth Rank Life’s Spirit Will after all, with Sizhong Ancient God also present to facilitate.
Plus, with the deterrence of Human Civilization.
Lin Yuan was not only an unparalleled genius but also had the support of Human Civilization behind him.
“Terms, good, let’s talk terms,” Tuoba Ancient God looked at Lin Yuan and said, “You must have heard from Sizhong, my lifespan is not much left.”
“If I continue to wait, I’ll probably have to forcefully make the Ultimate Leap,”
Tuoba Ancient God slowly said.
“But making the Ultimate Leap, I’m not very confident,”
Tuoba Ancient God shook his head, “So my condition is, Galaxy Master, as long as you provide an item that can increase my chances of a successful Ultimate Leap, I will hand over that Spirit Will to you.”
“An item that increases the chances of a successful Ultimate Leap?” Lin Yuan was slightly stunned.
This Tuoba Ancient God really dared to make a bold request, to ask for such a thing?
The Ultimate Leap? That is the highest goal of all evolving life forms, an item that could boost the chances of a successful Ultimate Leap — how incredibly precious was that?
“Tuoba, have you lost your mind?” Sizhong Ancient God was somewhat dumbfounded; he never expected Tuoba Ancient God would dare to voice such demands.
“Anyway, the condition stands, Galaxy Master, if you can provide it, then we trade,” Tuoba Ancient God smiled: “I believe in your abilities, Galaxy Master. You will surely satisfy me.”
