Chapter 42 "Emperor Yi" and Immortality
Time passed, and a year later.
Lin Yi emerged from the battle space looking refreshed.
In just six months, he managed to reach the nine-star level.
After consuming three more Bodhi leaves, his talent became astonishing, and two weeks ago, he broke through to the first level of the Eternal Star Realm.
"If I hadn't been worried about the Bodhi Tree being coveted, and had left it and the Life-Eating Vine on Earth, I would have advanced even faster by cultivating under it," Lin Yi exclaimed.
……
Black Dragon Star, the most prosperous core area.
A beautiful and breathtaking tall building stands here, surrounded by lawns stretching for several kilometers. Such a luxurious phenomenon is rare in this prime location where land is extremely valuable.
But when people walked past on the sidewalks around here, no one thought there was anything wrong with it; instead, they all looked on with envy.
Because this is the 'world's number one bank'!
call!
The surrounding space trembled slightly, and then a figure appeared in front of the Universe First Bank. It was Lin Yi, who had just finished his seclusion and rushed over.
"A four-star customer?"
After Lin Yi stepped through the gates of the Universe First Bank, the branch manager of the Universe First Bank on Black Dragon Star immediately received a notification from the banking system and rushed over to greet him as quickly as possible.
After all, to become a four-star customer, one needs to have deposits of over 5 Mixed Yuan Units in the Universe First Bank. Even in the entire Black Dragon Mountain Empire, there are no more than five customers of this level!
A moment later, in the lobby of the world's first bank.
"Lord Lin Yi, please wait a moment, Master Xingwu will be here shortly." The branch manager bowed respectfully to Lin Yi.
Although he belonged to the world's number one bank and was the head of a branch, he still had to be respectful to his distinguished four-star clients!
Lin Yi nodded.
Xingwu is one of the managers of the Virtual Universe Company stationed in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, and possesses immortal strength.
He was a powerful figure whom Lin Yi had managed to connect with through various channels and by spending nearly a hundred Chaos Units. He was also the most important person for Lin Yi to obtain the "Initial Universe Quota".
Lin Yi tapped the cold crystal armrest and spoke.
"Activate identity concealment."
Swish~!
A curtain of icy water appeared out of thin air, enveloping Lin Yi completely before merging into his body and disappearing.
In Lin Yi's view, he showed no change whatsoever. Even ordinary immortal gods could not discern his background or appearance.
This is a special feature introduced by the world's first bank to protect the privacy of its transaction clients.
A moment later, the branch manager led in a giant with a silver scale on his forehead.
Lin Yi rose and bowed to the shaman.
"The witch doctor!"
After the branch manager left and the door to the meeting room closed, Xingwu sat lazily in his armchair and said...
"Ah, you're 'Emperor Yi'? You spent hundreds of Hunyuan to see me? Is there anything I can help you with?"
An immortal god, who is also the manager of the Virtual Universe Company stationed in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, has a strength, status and backing that surpass ordinary immortals. Although Lin Yi activated his identity concealment to prevent Xingwu from seeing through his background, it was not enough to make Xingwu treat him as an equal.
A four-star client of the world's number one bank might be a big shot to others, but to him, it's nothing special.
But does the title "Emperor Yi" mean "Emperor of Perseverance" or "Emperor of Resilience"?
It's a bit strange, and a bit arrogant...
Lin Yi smiled and shook his head.
"No, I just want to help the manager settle a matter that's been on his mind!"
"oh?!"
The shaman straightened up, looked Lin Yi up and down with a hint of suspicion, and asked, "Help me settle my worries?"
"Speak your mind directly; I don't like beating around the bush when talking to people."
Lin Yi hurriedly said, "Please look, sir!"
With a wave of his hand, a list of two items appeared before the shaman: the Nine-Aperture Golden Pill and the Myriad-Spirit Enlightenment Pill.
These were the treasures from the two blue cards Lin Yi had drawn. The former, when the heart was opened and merged with the body, continuously enhanced the bloodline level. The latter, when the skull was pried open and the body merged with the sea of consciousness, brought enlightenment and improved comprehension!
Of course, the names of the items Lin Yi displayed were changed... [Root Bone Pill], [Comprehension Pill].
"I know that you, Steward, have always had lofty ambitions, so I am presenting you with these two pills."
Lin Yi had an uncontrollable smile on his face.
The shaman had straightened up, no longer displaying his previous languidness and arrogance. He stared intently at the documents Lin Yi had produced, his voice trembling slightly.
"Is this pill really as miraculous as you say, capable of elevating one's bloodline to the first tier and one's comprehension to the level of a genius in a cosmic kingdom?"
The sorcerer couldn't help but be excited. Although he had a powerful background, his potential had basically reached its limit, and there was almost no possibility of him advancing further.
If what the pill says is true, then the Root Bone Pill is fine, but as for bloodline level, at his level, as long as he is willing to spend resources, he can improve it with difficulty.
Comprehension Pills are much more precious. They are resources that can increase comprehension, and are extremely rare and valuable. Each one is something that countless powerful people would fight over.
The key issue is that there's a price but no market for it!
Even if he has a powerful background, it would be difficult for him to get a chance to use it.
If it is truly as miraculous as described, capable of elevating his comprehension to the level of a genius in a major star region like the Cosmic Kingdom, then cultivating laws and secret techniques will become much easier. He can continue to research and improve his laws, striving towards becoming a Marquis, a King, or even a Cosmic Venerable.
State your conditions!
After a long while, Xingwu laboriously looked away from the descriptions of the two pills and turned to look at Lin Yi beside him.
As an immortal god, he did not believe that the other party had gone to great lengths to lure him out just to offer him a pill.
"That's right!"
Lin Yi quickly said, "I heard that you have some World Lord-level slots for going to the Initial Universe to comprehend the Dao. I came to see you today to see if I can apply for one!"
The initial universe exploration slots are tiered...
For example, the star-level kids recruited through the Genius Battle and the cosmic-level kids recruited through the Strongest Battle have the longest comprehension time, a full thirty years. This is a special care and reward for geniuses.
For other Domain Lords and Realm Lords who did not enter through the Genius Battle, the cultivation time is only ten years!
Because these people have relatively average talent and have cultivated for a long time, they have not much potential to tap. Their cultivation in the initial universe is only for breaking through to a higher level, and ten years is enough.
"Oh?"
Xingwu paused for a moment, then hesitated. "I do have one unallocated initial universe comprehension slot at the World Lord level, but... many noble and kingly families are eyeing it... This is difficult!"
Lin Yi cursed under his breath, "Greedy!"
A Realm Lord-level comprehension slot, not an Immortal-level one, is worth at most tens of thousands of Chaos Yuan.
Lin Yi was confident that if these two pills were sent to a major auction house, they would be enough to drive those who had been granted the titles of Marquis or even King into a frenzy, and could potentially sell them for 100,000 Hunyuan.
Even if you don't use it yourself, you can give it to your family's descendants. No one can refuse the opportunity to explore the secret realm together with a son who is expected to be ennobled or even ennobled in the future!
However, the next major auction is still nearly two years away, and Lin Yi doesn't want to delay his "speedrun" plan for the sake of "a mere tens of thousands of Hunyuan".
Moreover, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be auctions for initial universe slots at that time.
