The Weapon Spirit of the Noble Sphere was like a flickering ball of light. It floated around in Chu Lian's mind, flashing with a mysterious aura.
Its tone was very cold, and there were not many ripples in its voice.
But now, there was a trace of fear that could not be detected.
"If we didn't cut off the connection with the outside world in time, we wouldn't have been able to leave that place. I've only seen such a terrifying existence on the most powerful person in the civilization that created the Noble Sphere. He was the first owner of the Noble Sphere …"
"I don't know why such a terrifying aura would appear in such a weak civilization."
"I just don't know if the terrifying existence you're talking about noticed our abnormality?"
Chu Lian could not help but ask. He was indeed afraid. If he had not left decisively or stayed for a while longer …
He might have really been targeted by that indescribable terrifying existence.
However, he did not forget to ask the Weapon Spirit of the Noble Sphere about the current safety situation of the Village of Worthies.
He was really worried about the mysterious Sir Gu and the black-robed old man beside him. They gave Chu Lian a sense of fear and uneasiness.
"I don't think so. If they did, the owner of that terrifying aura would not have let you leave safely," the Weapon Spirit of the Noble Sphere explained.
If it was really captured by that unknown existence, it could only be destroyed along with the Noble Sphere.
The remaining energy in the Noble Sphere was not enough to continue binding a host.
Moreover, according to the rules set by the civilization that created the Noble Sphere, once the Noble Sphere recognized an owner, it had to prioritize protecting the owner's life. Other minor details could be abandoned.
As the Weapon Spirit of the Noble Sphere, it could not interfere with the Noble Sphere's choice of owner. At most, it could only be considered as the host's guide.
Apart from that, its existence was also bound together with the Noble Sphere and the host.
Unless it could really destroy the Noble Sphere, it could only follow the rules and be destroyed like the host.
The Weapon Spirit of the Noble Sphere was an independent consciousness to the Noble Sphere. It had been through many hosts.
If there were no accidents, Chu Lian should be the last host.
The previous hosts did not manage to reach the level of the first host. They all died along the way.
At the same time, the Sphere of Noble Aspirations had also experienced unimaginable damage. It was almost irreversible.
"I've already probed this Virtuous Gathering Manor. There's no danger that you're worried about. As for that Young Master Gu, he's indeed mysterious. He should have some sort of treasure that can conceal his cultivation. I can't see through it in a short while."
"As for that black robed old man, judging from the aura he revealed, he's not far from the Dao Realm … To have an existence that almost stepped into the Dao Realm as a servant, that Young Master Gu's origin is probably not simple."
"I suspect that he might not be a living being from this civilization. Instead, he might have come from an even more ancient and powerful civilization. Even the inheritors of the civilization that created me might not necessarily receive such treatment at such a young age to have a being that is close to entering the Dao realm as a servant. "
The artifact spirit of the Sphere of Noble Aspirations began to explain.
Although it was unable to use the energy within the Sphere of Noble Wishes, it could use its intelligence to infer and determine the strength of Gu Changge and the black-robed old man.
To it, wisdom was indeed the most miraculous and powerful force in the world.
When Chu Lian heard this explanation, he could not help but be stunned. This was a direction and possibility that he had never thought of.
"Artifact spirit, you're saying that Young Master Gu might have come from an even more ancient and powerful civilization? That he's not from the True Spirit Ruins World? "
He could not help but ask. He was simply too shocked and found it hard to believe.
If it was true, then this was the first time he had come into contact with a living being from another civilization, and in such a manner.
Before this, Chu Lian had only learned about other civilizations from his Master who had adopted him.
However, that was all in the ancient records. He had never thought that he would actually run into them.
The artifact spirit of the Sphere of Noble Aspirations said with certainty, "There's a ninety percent chance of that happening. If he's a living being from the True Spirit Ruins World, then no matter how great his background is, it's impossible for him to have an existence that almost stepped into the Dao Realm protect him. Even the royal family of the True Spirit Ruins World that you want to overthrow does not have such a foundation and qualifications."
In truth, it was also very moved. While it was asleep, Chu Lian had unexpectedly come into contact with such a person.
Could this be the so-called anomaly where one's luck was so astonishing that they could coincidentally meet a benefactor?
Chu Lian was completely stunned. He truly did not expect that the mysterious Young Master Gu would have such a terrifying background.
Compared to his background, the royal family of the True Spirit Ruins World was not even worth mentioning.
He swallowed his saliva and suddenly understood why Miss Huang would say such words to him.
She probably knew about Young Master Gu's background.
However, due to some reason, they addressed each other as cousins.
In that instant, Chu Lian figured out many things.
However, he still had another question in his heart and could not help but ask, "Artifact spirit, since you said that this Young Master Gu has such a terrifying background, why did he appear in the world of the True Spirit Ruins World and seem to be staying here for a long time?"
That was also what he did not understand.
When it heard that, the Artifact spirit of the Grand Wish Ball was not surprised and answered calmly, "Host, your vision is still too narrow. You only know about the True Spirit Ruins World, but you don't know how many terrifying and ancient civilizations were born in the Vast Expanse. Before these civilizations, the True Spirit Ruins World is not even worth mentioning.
"The territories under the jurisdiction of the giant forces of power in those civilizations span an unknown amount of time and space. It is difficult to imagine. Even the ancient True Worlds can only rely on them. "And the successors or disciples of those giant forces of power will be sent to many places to train and train before they succeed to the throne …"
After hearing this explanation, Chu Lian finally reacted. He nodded his head and said in realization, "I know. The reason why young master Gu appeared in the Spiritual Mound Civilization is very likely to be because of the training of the faction behind him. That black robed elder is a protector in charge of his safety."
The Artifact spirit of the Grand Wish Ball said, "Your luck is really good to appear in the eyes of such a person. Besides, he is very young and has a bright future ahead of him. You are highly regarded by him. If you have the chance in the future, leave the True Spirit Ruins World and wander the Vast Expanse. It is also good karma."
Chu Lian knew what it meant. However, his current goal was to overthrow the rule of the royal family of the True Spirit Ruins World and return peace to this world.
Besides, how should he say it?
He always felt a little uncomfortable in front of Young Master Gu. He felt that the other party's tone and expression were always calm and looking down on him, as if he was standing in a very high world and looking down on all life.
His tone was always unhurried and calm, as if there was nothing that could shock him.
Even the women he had a good impression of were full of admiration and reverence for him.
'If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely leave the True Spirit Ruins World and visit other civilizations …'
Chu Lian thought to himself with longing and yearning in his eyes.
With the Grand Wish Ball's explanation, he was completely at ease and no longer thought about leaving the Virtuous Gathering Manor.
'At the same time, for Junior Sister's sake, I have to stay and become a guest elder.'
After making his decision, Chu Lian went straight to the point and found the Spirit Emperor to explain his intentions.
However, he still pretended to consider for a long time before reluctantly staying behind as a guest of 'Young Master Gu'.
"Cousin has many guests under him and there are many capable people. According to their strength and methods, they are divided into three levels, Heaven, Earth, and Mortal. The salary and benefits of each level of guest elder are also different. It can even be described as the difference between heaven and earth."
"Originally, according to the rules, if Young Master Chu Lian becomes a guest elder, he has to go through some trials before he can be awarded a guest elder token. However, because Young Master Chu Lian is more familiar with me, cousin made an exception and directly made Young Master Chu Lian a Heaven-rank guest elder to enjoy the highest salary and resources. "
In the courtyard, the Spirit Emperor had a graceful figure and jade-like skin that shone with a moving luster. She led a large group of people over.
With a smile, she read out the rules and requirements of being a guest elder to Chu Lian, as well as the salary.
At the same time, she also got someone to hand an ancient token with the word 'Heaven' engraved on it to Chu Lian.
As she spoke, the group of people brought over by the Spirit Emperor moved boxes of rare treasures over and placed them in the courtyard. There were Dharma artifacts, Daoist scriptures, mystic arts, jade bones …
Instantly, immortal clouds rose and treasure mist surged. It was as if they had arrived at a treasure trove, with dazzling divine light everywhere.
Some of the treasure chests were opened, releasing a strong medicinal fragrance that made one's pores open and become immortals.
"These are the starting salaries …" The Spirit Emperor said with a smile.
These heavenly treasures were considered rare and precious divine items in the Spiritual Mound civilization. They were priceless.
Cultivators at the Immortal Dao level would fight for them with all their might.
Chu Lian looked at the dazzling light and medicinal fragrance in the courtyard and was speechless for a long time. Even though he was already prepared, he was still shocked and his head was buzzing.
What did it mean to be rich?
This was what it meant to be rich!
Even though he had a supreme treasure like the Noble Ball, he could not help but swallow his saliva and look away for a long time.
Chu Lian finally understood why the Grand Wish Sphere's Artifact Spirit would say those words.
Just the salary he bestowed was already so frightening. How frightening would the treasures and wealth he had on him be?
It was probably unimaginable.
And this was only the tip of the iceberg of Young Master Gu's background.
"Senior Brother …"
In the courtyard, Mingxiu, who had also witnessed this scene, was also in a daze for a long time.
This was the first time she had seen so much wealth and she wondered if she had seen wrongly.
Especially when there were many treasures that were compatible with her cultivation.
At this moment, Mingxiu was envious of her Senior Brother. This was only the first day of being Young Master Gu's guest and he had already obtained so many treasures?
If he was valued highly, how shocking would the rewards be? She did not dare to think about it.
"Miss Huang, I would like to know what one has to do to become Young Master Gu's guest? It's impossible to obtain so many treasures for no reason. "
Chu Lian recovered with great difficulty, but there was still a trace of shock in his eyes and he could not help but ask.
He did not believe that this Young Master Gu was purely doing a good deed and did not have any ulterior motives. He was just giving out a salary and supporting a group of guests.
"Young Master Chu Lian will know about this in the future. I can't tell you about it now. Just focus on cultivating and raising your strength. Of course, as a guest, Young Master Chu Lian will need to follow my cousin's instructions in the future. There are rules and regulations in this token. If Young Master Chu Lian accepts it, you can refine it … "
"And once you refine it, it means that Young Master Chu Lian will be bound by the agreement. You have to look carefully."
The Spirit Emperor still had a faint smile on his face as he explained to Chu Lian. He even kindly reminded him.
Chu Lian had already expected this. It was impossible that there were no corresponding restrictions. So he immersed his mind in this token and quickly looked at the contents of the agreement. It was an equal agreement and would not force him to do anything that was against benevolence, righteousness, and morality.
He still had some reservations and asked the Weapon Spirit of the Noble Ball to help him see if there were any problems with the agreement.
After getting a definite answer, he was relieved to refine it. It was considered that he had signed this agreement and a binding force was formed in the unseen world.
After doing all this, the Spirit Emperor returned to report on his mission, satisfied. Chu Lian originally wanted to keep her and say a few more words, but when he saw this scene, he felt sad and regretful.
"I suggest that the host should not have any ideas about this woman. She should not be a simple person. Furthermore, she seems to be highly regarded by that Young Master Gu. If you get too close to her, it will inevitably displease that Young Master Gu and create more complications. This will not be beneficial to your current development."
"Now that the host is living under someone else's roof, it's best not to cross that line. There is a hierarchy."
The Weapon Spirit of the Noble Ball's voice rang in Chu Lian's mind, reminding him.
Chu Lian naturally knew this. He was not someone who only cared about his personal feelings and forgot about other things.
"With these resources, my strength can be greatly improved and I will soon break through to the Immortal Dao level …"
Then, his eyes burned with passion as he looked at the piles of wealth that were shrouded in immortal light.
On the other side, the Spirit Emperor had also returned to Gu Changge's side to report on the matter of recruiting Chu Lian.
"You did well. In a while, go find some people and create some trouble for him. You can't let him be too calm. It's reasonable to arrange some face-slapping scenes for him so that he won't be suspicious."
"After that, you can arrange for more experts to be brought out for training. At the right time, you can recruit him into the army and let him fight with the soldiers."
Gu Changge nodded and instructed.
