“Good,” Lin Yun nodded.
He had not held much hope when asking Zou Dongsheng. It was merely a casual enquiry.
“By the way, Young Master, hand me your weapon. I can upgrade it to a Great Luo Heavenly Soldier. We still have a complete set of materials in Wuji Heavenly Palace,” Zou Dongsheng said.
“What? Upgrade it to a Great Luo Heavenly Soldier? You… you’re not joking, are you?” Lin Yun was stunned.
At the auction in Heart City, he had personally witnessed a set of materials for upgrading to a Great Luo Heavenly Soldier sell for an astronomical price.
Although he had desperately wanted it back then, he simply lacked the means to compete.
Now, hearing that Zou Dongsheng would help him upgrade his weapon to a Great Luo Heavenly Soldier, how could Lin Yun not be shocked?
“Young Master, how could I joke about something like this? Though Wuji Heavenly Palace has been destroyed and only these remnants of ours remain, we still possess some foundation. Equipping you, our Young Master, with a Great Luo Heavenly Soldier is certainly not a problem,” Zou Dongsheng replied.
Over the years, Wuji Heavenly Palace had stayed in hiding, generating almost no income and living off the resources left from the past. However, with so few members now, consumption was not excessive.
If they could not even provide their own Young Master with a Great Luo Heavenly Soldier, the name of Wuji Heavenly Palace would be nothing but empty reputation.
Even in its current resource-scarce state, the palace would never shortchange Lin Yun.
“Then thank you very much,” Lin Yun said with a smile.
With those words, he flipped his hand, produced his weapon, and passed it to Zou Dongsheng.
The thought that he could obtain a set of upgrade materials for a Great Luo Heavenly Soldier without spending a single Bright Moon Crystal Stone filled Lin Yun with excitement.
This was something he had not even dared dream of before.
Zou Dongsheng accepted the weapon and said, “Young Master, stay here in the hall and cultivate. You may begin attempting to open your first divine meridian. I shall not disturb you further.”
With that, Zou Dongsheng left the hall first.
Only Lin Yun remained inside the grand hall.
Lin Yun quietly reflected that joining Wuji Heavenly Palace this time had truly brought him enormous gains.
First there was the Purple Thunder Divine Pearl and the ten billion Bright Moon Crystal Stones from the wooden box, plus the Seed of the Origin Tree, and the supreme treasure of the Heavenly Fire Divine Hall, the Divine Meridian Technique.
And now his weapon would be upgraded to a Great Luo Heavenly Soldier.
This was undoubtedly a massive harvest.
“Next, I should focus fully on raising my strength,” Lin Yun let out a long breath.
During his previous time in Heart City, he had already gathered all the materials needed to break through to the Third Level of the Tongtian Realm. He had also been very close to that realm. As long as he used the remaining materials, breaking through was all but guaranteed.
However, after leaving the Ancestral Heart Realm, he had been pulled by Zou Dongsheng into the trial, then summoned back by the Heavenly Fire Divine Hall, and afterwards forced to undergo reincarnation. Because of that, the breakthrough had been postponed.
Now, at last, he had time. Lin Yun could finally settle down and raise his cultivation realm.
There was also cultivating his divine sense, and opening the divine meridians.
Right now, Lin Yun could indeed achieve a substantial leap in strength.
He stored the Purple Thunder Divine Pearl and the ten billion Bright Moon Crystal Stones into his own storage ring.
Lin Yun decided to first raise his realm to the Third Level of the Tongtian Realm before doing anything else.
“Let’s begin.”
Lin Yun first took out the One Thought Bright Heart Tower and entered it.
Once inside, he produced resources such as the Blood Demon Flower and began absorbing them.
…
More than a month later.
Lin Yun opened his eyes and fully released his aura.
The aura of the Third Level of the Tongtian Realm was unmistakable!
“Success!” Lin Yun smiled with satisfaction.
Reaching the Third Level of the Tongtian Realm had never been in doubt for him. After all, he had already prepared all the breakthrough resources long ago.
After reaching the Third Level, the next step would be the Void Dao Realm. That would be a major bottleneck.
Lin Yun knew full well that this bottleneck would not be overcome quickly or easily.
Next, he planned to start opening his divine meridians.
Lin Yun first closed his eyes and once more carefully reviewed the route and method for opening the first divine meridian as recorded in the Divine Meridian Technique.
Then he shut his eyes again, circulated his inner energy, and, following the method in the technique, slowly guided his inner energy to open the first divine meridian.
The process was extremely gradual.
The moment he began guiding it, Lin Yun immediately felt a strange itching sensation spreading throughout his body.
…
Half a month later.
Lin Yun flipped his hand and produced the small jade bottle Zou Dongsheng had given him. It contained the beastman essence blood.
