Free Web NovelChapter 799: Chapter 799: Victory in Another Form
"You kid, how come you’re always taking and eating?"
On the way back to Bisite Star, the Great Saint materialized beside Lin Yi. It was Xiyue’s first time seeing a Wu soul materialize, and she couldn’t take her eyes off it.
"Back when I was a troublemaker, I never did anything as ruthless as you."
As the Wu soul within Lin Yi, the Great Saint naturally knew Lin Yi’s thoughts. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Plotting to acquire materials and source power from both Bisite and Aiven planets, and even trying to swindle their research results, was truly shameless.
"Yeah, Great Saint, you chose to resist after discovering the actions of the heavenly gods. Do you know how to harness source power?"
This question was really directed at the wrong person.
Although the Great Saint discovered this cruel secret, he never thought to collude with those heavenly gods.
Otherwise, the Great Saint wouldn’t have been chased by the heavenly gods.
The remnant soul could only become a Wu soul, and countless years have passed. Through all these years, the Great Saint never regretted his decision.
Born for justice, dying on the unyielding path, isn’t it a good ending?
If there’s anything he’s still worried about, the Great Saint does have something.
He wonders if everything he’s done has had any meaning.
When Lin Yi left Blue Star this time, everything had its answer.
Why did the Dark Rising Organization appear? Isn’t it because some gods from the higher planes want to secretly grow stronger and trick the lower plane planets to establish it?
Even if how to refine source power is still under research, it’s enough to explain everything.
"I, old Sun, have always acted openly and never relied on others to be strong. How would I know all this?"
Lin Yi can understand this.
However, what Lin Yi couldn’t understand was why the Great Saint, who was always hostile to evil, did not criticize Lin Yi’s approach after knowing his plan.
As Lin Yi’s Wu soul, the Great Saint could perceive Lin Yi’s thoughts and immediately gave an explanation.
"There’s nothing wrong with your approach."
When a decaying system becomes the norm, someone needs to appear to break it.
Having experienced death, how could the Great Saint not know it’s not something that power alone can achieve?
Does the Great Saint not know if Lin Yi is a bad person?
Moreover, whether it’s Bisite Star or Aiven Star, having been targeted by the force of the Dark Rising, they inevitably face the fate of being used for source power.
If not avoidable, what’s wrong with letting these powers go to Lin Yi?
"Without struggle, where does peace come from? Don’t worry, young man, old Sun won’t abandon you. The road you have to travel is still long, it’s not something you should worry about."
Indeed, the road is still long.
The show hasn’t even started.
During her days on Blue Star, Xiyue often followed Lin Yi on runs.
But unfortunately, Xiyue didn’t go into the Inverted Sky Tower, and she wasn’t satisfied with the Wu souls obtained subsequently in the Deep Sea Tower.
Therefore, up to now, Xiyue hasn’t focused too much effort on Wu souls.
As an important means to enhance strength, this point cannot be overlooked.
Thinking that since we’re at the higher plane, why not try to obtain a suitable Wu soul for Xiyue here.
Speaking of Wu soul, Yan Qiushui didn’t quite understand.
It wasn’t until Lin Yi explained the first appearance of a Wu soul that Yan Qiushui understood what a Wu soul was.
On Bisite Planet, Wu souls are called Ghost Soul Bubbles.
This thing is not very popular on Bisite Planet.
Even martial arts perfection realm experts do not easily engage with these things.
According to Yan Qiushui, Ghost Soul Bubbles in this world are indeed a significant way to increase power.
But Ghost Soul Bubbles in this world are slightly different from the Wu souls on Blue Star.
A Wu soul can be absorbed and cultivated by any professional who acquires it, granting them the ability to use the skills the Wu soul had in life.
But it’s different on Bisite Planet.
On Bisite Planet, except for pinnacle experts, only fanatical individuals would target these things.
After absorbing a Ghost Soul Bubble, not only must a significant amount of resources be used to cultivate it, but corresponding strength must also be used to suppress it without any slack.
Otherwise, the Ghost Soul Bubble may turn on its master at any time.
Yan Qiushui’s strength ranks second on the entire Bisite Planet, so she naturally has the qualifications to subdue a Wu soul.
"Lin Yi little brother, with your current strength, you could absorb the highest-grade, most potent Ghost Soul Bubble to enhance your power, but with your sister-in-law’s strength, it might not be possible."
"Once a Ghost Soul Bubble backfires, at best it results in stagnation without further progress in strength; at worst, it shatters the Divine Sense, leaving one a mindless zombie."
As of now, both parties still maintain a cooperative relationship, and at this time, Yan Qiushui hopes for no mistakes.
The Dark Rising Association is already prepared and is set to act on Bisite Star in about three days. By then, Bisite Star will be in chaos. Though the association has planned everything, the official forces are not to be underestimated, and no one can guarantee the plan won’t be interrupted.
Yan Qiushui senses that Lin Yi’s strength is not much different from hers. Once Luojia joins the battle, Lin Yi will be the key to breaking the balance.
At this time, why would she want Lin Yi to be distracted by acquiring a Wu soul for Xiyue?
"Lin Yi little brother, sister-in-law, how about this, I know of a place that can absolutely produce powerful Ghost Soul Bubbles. After our plan succeeds, I’ll personally take you there. If nothing else, sister has successfully suppressed Ghost Soul Bubbles for a hundred years, and the experience I provide can prevent sister-in-law from making some detours, right?"
"But now there’s truly no time. The Dark Rising Association is at a critical stage, I really can’t spare the time..."
Lin Yi quite understood that.
Once the Dark Rising Organization acts, there’s no turning back.
"Qiushui, do you really have that little faith in my strength? I know what you’re worried about, but rest assured, we will not delay the plan. However, Qiushui, if you arrange for someone capable to smoothly guide us to obtain a Ghost Soul Bubble, we might return even faster."
"Moreover, by acquiring the Ghost Soul Bubble, Xiyue will enhance her abilities, giving us a better chance of success."
Looking at Lin Yi’s earnest expression, Yan Qiushui found herself torn.
Should she agree or not?
She is confident in her ability to control and limit Lin Yi with her Formless Poison Barrier.
But now is clearly not the time for a showdown. If she tries to command Lin Yi as a leader now, it might just add to the variables.
Realizing that Lin Yi’s strength is not far off from hers, she can’t afford for him to mess up on his path to enhancing power, so Yan Qiushui finally agreed.
