A city floated in the middle of the pitch-black river of stars. This city was ten thousand kilometers long and wide, and its surface area was even larger than a planet.
It was like a giant plate in the universe, and on this plate was a city, soil, mountains, rivers, flowers, and trees. A giant semi-circular energy barrier covered it, preventing it from being affected by cosmic rays.
In short, this place had everything that a planet should have. The only difference was that a planet was a sphere, while this place was flat. A planet could only move according to a fixed orbit, but this city was slowly moving into the depths of the sea of stars under the powerful propulsion engine.
Actually, upon closer inspection, one would realize that this city, or rather, this continent, was built on a massive spaceship. The size of this oblong spaceship could even compare to the Titan warship Xia Fei had seen before, except that the Titan was a pure firepower warship with the goal of destruction, while this one was more like a moving fortress.
There was a simple pier made of wooden planks by the side of a clear stream, and a silver-haired old man was sitting by the pier, fishing. His two feet were in the stream, allowing the little fishes to play around his feet. Above him was the dazzling river of stars, and beneath his feet was the cool water of the stream. Both sides were overgrown with flowers and grass.
His face was as ruddy as a baby's, and his silver beard was tied into hundreds of braids that swayed in front of his chest. His nose was high, and his eyes were bright and full of expression. He had the air of an immortal.
The old man was bored as he fished and drank at the same time. At this moment, a door of light suddenly opened beside him, and the merchant Yuhua carefully walked out from it, his attitude extremely respectful.
"Patriarch." Yuhua bowed.
The old man did not raise his head as he smiled. "Yuhua, where did you come from? You seem to be in a rather unstable mood. You must've made a big deal, haven't you? "
Yuhua put on a smile. "Ancestor, nothing can be hidden from you. I just gave Dark Asura White Killer Sea a ten-leaf daffodil and made a small profit."
The old man nodded and said, "Bai Sha Hai has been cultivating in seclusion for twenty years now, and since he wants to use the Ten-leaf Daffodil now, he must be close to fully comprehending it. When that time comes, our Yu Family will probably have another powerful enemy."
"Patriarch, you won't blame me for this, right?" Yu Hua hurriedly asked.
The old man laughed heartily and said, "Even if you don't sell it to him, someone else will. This old man understands this. Since you've chosen to be a merchant, you just need to abide by your duties as a merchant. You don't need to worry about the family's matters. Unfortunately, you've clearly comprehended the Law of Space, yet you chose to be a merchant. You're just like Xiaoxuan, both stubborn fellows."
Yuhua walked up to the old man and handed him a small box. He then began to massage the old man's shoulders in a very filial manner.
"Patriarch, it's not like you don't know that I dislike fighting with others the most. Even the sight of blood makes me dizzy. Out of desperation, I chose to become a free and unfettered merchant. However, I have never forgotten about the matters of the family. This is the egg of a Three-headed Flaming Sparrow. I just got it, and now I'm giving it to you."
The old man was slightly startled. "Oh? The egg of a Three-headed Flaming Sparrow? That's a rare thing. If it hatches, it'll be a top-class exotic beast, and the juniors of the family will surely like it. How much is it? Name a price. "
Yuhua hurriedly said, "Patriarch, please don't joke with me. How could I dare take your money? I've only been able to make my business so big all these years because of the family's protection. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I'd have long been eaten alive by others. Giving you something to show my filial piety is only right."
If Xia Fei were to hear Yuhua's explanation, he would surely feel very depressed. It turned out that boot-licking and gift-giving were not unique to him. Yuhua's boot-licking skills were no worse than his own.
The old man nodded in satisfaction. "Alright, then I'll accept it. You've been thinking about the family all these years, and you've also helped the family a lot. As long as our Yu family doesn't fall, I'll guarantee your safety for the rest of your life."
Yuhua nodded. "Patriarch, no matter how precious this bird egg is, it's still an exotic beast. Someone has to control it. I've prepared another big gift for you today."
The old man was puzzled. "What other good stuff?"
Yuhua mysteriously answered, "A person."
"A person?"
"A person with his seventh brain region fully open! He's just over twenty years old! "
The old man's eyes gleamed as he excitedly said, "Fully opening his seventh brain region in his early twenties? Such an opportunity is hard to come by. Which path did he take? Is it possible that he was born with it? "
The old man did not let Yuhua massage his shoulders anymore. Instead, he pulled Yuhua over to sit beside him, tossing his fishing rod to the side, clearly very excited.
"Of course, he wasn't born with it. If he was, he probably wouldn't have lived to this day," Yuhua said.
The old man said, "So he's someone who cleared Heritage Planet? That can't be right. No one has managed to clear Heritage Planet in the past twenty years. Hurry up and tell me, just how did he manage to open his seventh brain region? "
Yuhua said, "There's indeed a record of clearing Heritage Planet in his brain region, but it's only been once, and he's still very far from clearing it. After careful observation, I discovered that while this person's seventh brain region is fully open, it's severely damaged, to the point where he can no longer advance on his own and can only rely on medicine to advance. Thus, I reckon that he had a fortuitous encounter while cultivating and forcefully broke through the barrier of his seventh brain region, thus fully opening it."
At this point, the old man sighed deeply. "What a pity. After all this talk, he turns out to be a good-for-nothing. There's a limit to relying on medicine to advance, and even if our Yu family mobilizes the entire clan's power, we can at most help him reach the Advanced Eternal rank. It's impossible for him to reach Immortal rank. What's the use of taking in a good-for-nothing who can't even reach Immortal rank?"
Yuhua smiled mysteriously. "Patriarch, let me finish. Although this person is crippled, there's something strange about him."
The old man frowned. "Strange?"
"Do you know how I found him?"
"How?"
"I was on the way to deliver the ten-leaf daffodil to Bai Sha Hai when I suddenly sensed someone spying on the Law of Space, so I hurriedly left the space to take a look. I discovered that the good-for-nothing you speak of had unintentionally opened a spatial door when he was advancing. Unfortunately, his cultivation was too low, so he was pushed out before he could even reach the door."
Shock!
Extreme shock!
The old man said in disbelief, "He's a person with a completely damaged seventh brain region, yet he accidentally opened a spatial door? Does that mean that he's at least at the Eternal rank, or even close to Immortal rank? "
Yuhua shook his head. "Not that high. His first ability is speed, and he's only just reached Legendary rank. Moreover, that's even with his equipment replenished. If he didn't have the Cloudrise combat boots, I reckon he wouldn't have been able to break through the Legendary rank."
The old man was even more shocked after hearing this. "He's able to open a spatial door right after reaching Legendary rank?! This matter is indeed very strange. Hurry up and tell me. Don't be so long-winded. "
Yuhua nodded. "I was also very puzzled after seeing it, so I tried to interact with him. I discovered that this person's seventh brain region is indeed crippled, but he has a very rare aura about him. I can't put my finger on it, but this kid is rather easygoing, and he's quite perceptive. Not only was he not afraid when I appeared, he even invited me to his ship as a guest, even giving me some gifts and praising me. I really like his craftiness."
The old man next to him shook his head unhappily. "Get to the point. Don't be long-winded."
Yuhua stuck out his tongue and timidly said, "Then I discovered a Holy Beast in his cabin!"
"A Holy Beast!" The old man was shocked. "Say that again! Is it really a Holy Beast? "
Yuhua patted his chest. "Don't you believe in my perceptive ability, Patriarch? It's definitely a Holy Beast! And it's a high-rank Holy Beast, the Holy Beast Shatterstar, also known as the White Devil! "
The old man could not help but gasp when he heard the two words "Shatterstar". The Holy Beast Shatterstar, also known as the White Devil Shatterstar, was one of the most ferocious exotic beasts in the universe. When it matured, it could destroy the heavens above and the earth below! Moreover, it had an extremely ferocious and violent personality. Wherever it went, the world would change color! Galaxies would be torn to shreds!
Xia Fei was merely a little warrior who had just reached the Legendary rank, an existence on a completely different plane of existence from the old man, yet this ferocious Holy Beast that even he had to be wary of was actually together with Xia Fei. The shock in the old man's heart was like a tsunami crashing against the shore, and it took a long time for him to calm down.
"You encountered the Holy Beast Shatterstar and managed to come back alive?" The old man was confused. He was clearly saying that Yuhua, who had grasped the Law of Space, was no match for Furball. If Xia Fei had heard this, he would have been so shocked that his eyeballs would have popped out of their sockets. How could he have imagined that this boot-licking Furball next to him was actually a Holy Beast? Furthermore, it was a ferocious Holy Beast that could easily kill even a Law of Space adept!
Yuhua shrugged. "I was shocked when I saw Shatterstar, too, and I broke out in a cold sweat. However, after careful observation, I realized that the Shatterstar Beast is still very young and far from being an adult, so I didn't rush to open a spatial gate and escape."
"Heavens! A Shatterstar Beast that's still an adult! You should have brought it back! You actually missed out on such an opportunity! How infuriating! "
Before Yuhua could finish speaking, the old man's face turned red as he cursed at him. Obtaining a Shatterstar Beast would be a huge boost to the entire family. Perhaps the Yu family could even advance further and enter the core of the power structure, but Yuhua had seen a Shatterstar Beast right in front of him and not snatch it away. This made the old man extremely angry.
Yuhua grinned cheekily as he massaged the old man's shoulders. The old man slapped Yuhua's hands to the side. "Don't give me that. Hurry up and continue."
Yuhua angrily said, "Ancestor, how could I not know how powerful a Shatterstar Beast is? Unfortunately, this Holy Beast Shatterstar has already signed a contract with that young man, so it's useless even if I snatch it back."
The old man's eyes flashed coldly. "Idiot. There are plenty of people in the family who can break contracts. Xia Fei is just a nobody who has just reached the Legendary rank, so there's no way he'll have any high-level contracts."
