Chapter 396: Bargain and Progress

--- Chapter 393 ---

Dream God.

In the interrogation, the real Arum Nok once described this figure as the most legendary existence he knew.

Although Arum Nok only heard it from legend, Dream God is a prominent figure who could traverse through space with his physical body and magic alone.

Not only that, but Dream God could also manipulate one's dreams and turn them into reality. Of course, Arum Nok explained this matter with exaggeration.

Besides a vacation, investigating Dream God's existence is why Yunlong joined this infiltration mission.

Yunlong planned to do a slow and low investigation, but who would have thought an idiot like Arum Kom meddled in out of nowhere and made him change the plan?

He doesn't know if he should be thankful or annoyed.

Maybe thankful?

After all, Yunlong also considered a forceful way but needed a reason to do so. And to be honest, Arum Kom's classic 'Young Master.' entrance is perfect for this scenario.

Overall, the situation put Yunlong and his companions at an advantage.

With Kang Tei's ability and this sudden conflict, they wouldn't suspect them at all.

'This is more fun than I thought.' Yunlong revealed a smile while watching the Odd-Eyed Clan's Patriarch and Elders' expressions shift.

After all, using the key to enter the Dream God Trials as compensation is detrimental to them. Yunlong used the chip of bargain ruthlessly.

If they refused, that's the same as offending the last survivor and noble Pure Elves, as they didn't know the Elven Races survived its demise and fled to the Douluo Planet three years ago.

They also cannot gamble against an unknown group of enemies with unfamiliar strength, considering Sieg crippled countless King's Guards they are proud of in seconds.

If they agreed, the matter ended here.

They could bury the hatchet and be friends!

The clock is ticking.

Yunlong waited for the response patiently, sensing these Odd-Eyed Races used their third eye to communicate with each other. They have a deep discussion right now.

Whistling casually, Yunlong waved his hand and grabbed a teacup and kettle back in the room. He poured himself a generous amount of tea and took a sip.

"Done?" Yunlong asked, finishing his tea.

"Done." The Great Elder Arum Jak nodded and heaved a heavy sigh.

The patriarch has a defeated look on his face for a moment. However, he quickly recovered and called, "Esteemed Guest."

"Drop the 'Esteemed Guest.' you can call me Lord Yun." Yunlong returned with a chuckle.

The corner of everyone's mouth twitched at Yunlong's shamelessness.

"Then Lord Yun, I presume you know why the 'Key' is important to us?"

"I heard of it. You and seven other clans will gather somewhere on this planet, opening the passage to a secret realm. That secret realm holds not only Dream God Trials but also rich resources."

"It's a wonderland for Star Cultivators, isn't it?"

The patriarch nodded and added, "That's why, by giving you the 'Key.' I hope you can be our representatives."

Yunlong laughed amusingly and commented, "Haha, are you adding a clause to my compensation? How sly of you, Patriarch."

"This doesn't seem to be the compensation I wanted."

The patriarch shook his head, "It might sound underhanded, but I will also add the treasure left behind by the ancestor to compensate you."

"It's something Pure Elven gifted to us 10,000 years ago."

"Oh?" Yunlong's eyes squinted in surprise.

...

A few days later.

In the southernmost courtyard of Odd-Eyed Clan, Yunlong lay down under the tree while playing around with a handful of green crystal orbs.

These green crystal orbs are Life Gold.

Yes, you heard that right.

Life Gold is the material representation of life energy. Simply put, it's the product of condensing copious amounts of life energy and a treasure of the world that could only come into existence after many years of gestation and incubation. Vast amounts of life energy within Life Gold are 'extremely.' beneficial to any living being. Every living being represents a life, but every piece of Life Gold represents an entire world.

Yunlong obtained a decently-sized Life Gold in the past, forging it into rings for his loved ones. Its effect nourished their bodies and also increased their talents and cultivation speed.

Now, he had a handful of these Life Gold.

Above all of this, Life God can be considered Divine Metal.

Something Yunlong needed to forge Ultra Divine Tool!

One of many reasons Yunlong started the 'Intergalactic Base.' plan was to find resources. One reason in particular is Divine Metal used to craft Divine Weapon.

Sea God told him the location already, but he hadn't found it after roaming in space for a while.

'Fate really works miraculously.' Yunlong chuckled as he stored the Life Gold in Inventory. 'Or maybe it's just my divinity.'

Yunlong can be considered a 'Young God.' compared to others. So, his divine skills are nothing to be proud of. To fully master the Divinity of Miracle, Yunlong has to gain more experience.

With that in mind, Yunlong consolidated his status as Godking and Divinity of Miracle even further.

He just became a Godking. It's just the beginning.

He has placed his name on the Universal Sword Ranking, which means he can be much more than a Godking!

Yunlong summoned Thousand Worlds Handkerchief and meditated under the tree.

Grandma Chiyo was about to call him for lunch but immediately stopped when she saw him focus on training.

'Grandma, grandma!'

'When I become bigger than you, I'll protect you from villains!'

'Hehe, I'll be the strongest healer!'

The image of a small boy flashed in Chiyo's eyes as she watched Yunlong, finding a strikingly similar image.

Grandma Chiyo smiled happily, rubbing her damp eyes.

"Aih, I should live more happily." She shook his head and returned to the house.

Yunlong immersed himself in the Thousand Worlds Handkerchief and sensed the universe within its pocket worlds.

He could feel each universe developing more and more as time passed, hosting lives and miracles. Several living beings have formed and thrived, giving him more faith than ever.

Unknown to Yunlong, one week has passed. As he opened his eyes, a thick layer of leaves covered him.

[Ding! Your Divinity has become stronger!]

[Ding! Your Divinity has become stronger!]

[Ding! Your Divinity has become stronger!]

[Ding! Your Divinity has become stronger!]

[Ding! Your Divinity has become stronger!]

[Divinity of Miracle has reached "Master." Level]

[You now can bless others with an opportunity called 'Once in a while, Miracle.'!]

"Hmm?" Yunlong tilted his head and checked the new ability.

After checking its contents, a satisfied smile appeared on Yunlong's handsome face.

Once in a while, Miracle is a powerful ability.

It could trigger one's potential and grant a rare enlightenment to one's soul and spirit.

The best effect is to create a miracle out of spite.

Of course, the miracle must come with a basis. And that basis is Yunlong's power.

"Oh, you're finally awake." Grandma Chiyo walked into the courtyard with a grandmotherly smile. "Aiyo, I was worried when you meditated for a week without eating and drinking."

Yunlong put on a wry expression, "I'm fine, Grandma."

"You think a God like me needs sustenance such as food?"

"God this, God that. As long as you are my grandson, I'll always worry about your health!" Grandma Chiyo grabbed Yunlong's collar and dragged him inside for a meal.

Yunlong felt the warmth from Grandma Chiyo's words.

He looked at the unfamiliar horizon and commented, "What a good day."
