--- Chapter 81 ---

Yu Long was quiet.

He stared at the crimson sphere in the ninth box silently. 

The crimson sphere is the size of an adult's palm with a crack all over it and this mutated neon aura coming out.

Zi Ji thought Yu Long didn't like this treasured item, but he couldn't be more wrong. 

At this very moment, Yu Long was shocked and confused at the sudden formation of his 'essence sphere' in this world. He knew this one wasn't 'recently' created, meaning it came from his past life.

Yu Long wanted to observe the essence sphere closely. However, he couldn't possibly use [Kaiju Maker] in front of Zi Ji. 

"Are you sure?" Zi Ji was confused by Yu Long's decision.

Even though Star Egg is a treasured item that everyone can use, its usage becomes obsolete for Tyrant Profound Realm or above because of the 'small enhancement' the transformation provides.

Star Egg also has a problem with its transformation being very short.

This Star Egg, in particular, is rare because it could allow someone to transform into an 'armored beast' with the lightning element.

"Yes." Yu Long answered casually. "Wrap it for me." 

"Very well." Zi Ji sighed helplessly. 

"Also, can you answer my question?" Yu Long's golden eyes flickered slightly.

Zi Ji tilted his head but answered, "Hmm, sure." 

"Does this thing, I mean Star Egg, rare?" 

Hearing this question, Zi Ji chuckled and responded. "Star Egg is a scarce treasure, but we could find more of it if you want to." 

"However, Star Egg comes with different variations and quality. The one I have here is the best in the Profound Sky Continent." 

"The lower quality ones aren't bad, but they are pretty much useless against profound practitioners with high cultivation." 

"I see..." Yu Long mumbled. It was weird because the Shadow Realm hadn't heard anything about this matter.

Did the Four Great Sacred Grounds hide Star Egg's information from the public?

Zi Ji said sixteen years.

It is the same years since Yu Long reincarnated into this world.

Yu Long must order Shadow Realm to gather more intel about Star Egg ASAP.

He couldn't let an unsupervised essence sphere roam around the Primal Chaos, or something unpleasant would happen.

Meanwhile, Zi Ji was bewildered by Yu Long's acts.

This young man's taste is very random.

Well, Zi Ji has several more arduous customers than Yu Long.

Opening the last box, Zi Ji flashed a small smile and revealed the best treasured item Black Moon Merchant Guild has had in six months. This thing took them a serious amount of resources to get.

Something that even might shock Yu Long to the core.

"This is the best treasure we have this year." 

"We found it in the desolate forest of the west, very close to the ruin of the ancient site." 

"People in the ancient record called this thing..." 

"Soul Chasing Spear." 

"Spear?" Yu Long stared dumbly at the last item.

Zi Ji wasn't wrong, but the item inside the box was just a rusty spearhead with burnt marks.

It was nothing special in Yu Long's eyes. And he pretended to be interested at first.

Yu Long used [Profound Sense] and discovered something was 'actually' sealed inside the spearhead. It was faint, but the thing couldn't hide from his powerful sense.

'Hoh, there is a trace of a profound aspect...' Yu Long was amused.

He cleared his throat and said, "I will also take this." 

"That adds up to five treasures so far, so I will add fifty more Greater Heart Linking Pills." 

After placing fifteen jade bottles on the table, Yu Long grabbed the treasure box one by one and stored them inside his spatial ring.

Zi Ji hid his excited expression as he grabbed the jade bottles, "It's my pleasure to have business with you, Young Master Yu Long." 

"Likewise." Yu Long nodded calmly.

They have a brief conversation before Yu Long excuses himself.

On the highest floor, Zi Ji laughed joyfully and saw the fifteen jade bottles like they were his greatest treasures. He looked down and saw Yu Long walking on the street calmly.

Yu Long waved his hand at him and disappeared into the crowd.

Zi Ji was speechless, "So, he did notice my presence, even with all these arrays around me." 

"As expected of the Lost Heaven Master's Disciple." 

"He's a monstrous talent..." 

"It's a shame we couldn't form more relationships with him because the Supreme Ocean Palace doesn't have a good female disciple..."

"We missed a lot." 

After thinking about something for a while, Zi Ji lifted a jade slip and whispered something. "It's up to you now, Phoenix Emperor." 

...

Since Yu Long still had free time, he went to the Shadow Realm's eleventh base, which used the 'Dark Moon Sect' as its identity.

He didn't sense anyone following him, which means Zi Ji was probably wary or afraid to offend him.

Yu Long smiled, "Having a strong identity is a good thing, after all." 

"Aih, those cultivation world's protagonists always get tailed every time they meet high-profile people." 

"And their secrets get out..."

"Well, I don't have to say what happens next." He whistled and stopped at an ordinary-looking courtyard. This place looks ordinary, but people from the Divine Phoenix Empire come here with recommendations and get recruited to the Dark Moon Sect.

Well, it was a bad practice. The Dark Moon Sect should have stuck on the orphan or just people with ill fate.

He entered the area and sensed several presences hiding underground.

Yu Long chuckled and released the presence of [Art of Ghost, causing the people below to tremble slightly.

"Young Master?" Someone came out.

It was Lily.

"How is the situation?" Yu Long asked while carefreely walking to her.

Lily put on a wry smile and answered, "It's worse than we thought." 

"The leader of trash used his position to recruit his family members and his close friend. Thankfully, they haven't revealed themselves to the world." 

Yu Long noticed some blood on Lily's cheeks and wiped them off with his sleeve. "Lady shouldn't get blood on their bodies." He commented gently.

Lily giggled, "Only you would say something like that, Young Master."

"Did you hate it, though?"

"No, I like it." 

They entered the underground facility and saw Hong Guan sitting with thick documents on the table.

"Ack." Lily looked away.

Yu Long shook his head gently because it was clear that Lily had come up to run away from this duty. The money-loving maid left the tedious job to her fellow Shadow Bride.

"Where is Yueli?" Yu Long asked.

Hong Guan raised her gaze and met Yu Long's face, "Young Master, when did you come here?" 

"Just now." 

"I see... As for Yueli, you can find her in the training field, probably testing her new attainment." The red-haired lady added with a slightly envious tone. "She broke through to level 18 just now."

"Oh?" Yu Long was pleasantly surprised.

Yu Long's maids and fiancee reached 'Innate Realm' of Profound Arts after training with him for three years in the Dragon God Trial Grounds.

All of them are at level 16 or 17, but Chu Yueli leveled up again just a day after they left the cave.

Yu Long knows how hard it was to level up one's mastery over the profound arts. It was a tedious accumulation of understanding over oneself, the world, and its essence.

To reach level 18 means Chu Yueli has understood something beyond anyone in her era. She, who was 'unfortunately' overshadowed by her older sister for years, finally showed her worth.

"Good, good." Yu Long couldn't help but feel proud of Chu Yueli's achievement. "I expected a good scene when visiting the Frozen Cloud Asgard." 

In the training ground, Chu Yueli meditated and opened her eyes. A frost light escaped her icy eyes.

After stabilizing the Shadow Realm's eleventh base and its open cover, Yu Long handed the responsibility to Hua Minghai and Ru Xiaoya. Yu Long gives him three months to recruit more members, and the thief responds confidently.

In the vast blue sky, Yu Long and his maids rode a silver arc-shaped Profound Ark and traveled quickly. This thing was 'actually' given by the disdainful young lady with a simple bet.

"Woah, where did you get this thing, Young Master?" Lily knocked on the Profound Ark with a greedy look.

Yu Long laughed, "Will you trust me if I said I won this with one punch?" 

"Hmph, don't say it if you don't want to." Lily pouted.

"So stingy..." 

'You shouldn't be the one saying that!' Hong Guan and Chu Yueli were 'literally' taken aback by this greedy maid. Among the maids, Lily is the wealthiest.

"Well, let's go back to the Drifting River City." Yu Long controlled the Profound Ark and flew into the distance.

Wait, it seems Yu Long forgot about someone.

...

Divine Phoenix Empire, Unknown Area.

A girl with snow-like hair and a healthy complexion hummed happily. She has innocent-looking bright eyes, a small nose, and rosy lips. There is also a golden-red flame mark on her face, which is the sign of Phoenix God's True Inheritor.

In short, the girl looks like a little fairy.

The girl sat in a humble but nice-looking house near a beautiful lake.

She gazed at the distance and said, "Ah, The presence of Phoenix God is gone." 

"I thought the other spirit of Phoenix God would meet me." 

"Xue'er is disappointed." She let out a cute sigh.

The girl balled her soft hand and continued, "B-But, we will definitely meet in the future!"
