Before Lu Yu’s eyes, there was more than just individual fragments of the Blue Planet’s soul.
Those were top-grade auxiliary items.
In his memory, it was a treasure that would be fiercely coveted and fought over by countless people.
“Are you sure you want to sell all of it?” Lu Yu looked at Lan Xingzhi, struggling to control his emotions.
Not too much.
As long as he could bring a piece of the Blue Star Soul into the Demon Hunting Plains, it would be worth at least one thousand. No, perhaps even thousands of Star Spirit Stones.
The stronger a person becomes, the more they understand the importance of fundamental attributes.
Li Yi and several others nodded.
Li Yi continued, “Although the Blue Planet’s Soul is a valuable item, when it comes to our skills, using just one of them doesn’t significantly boost our attributes. Moreover, without better skills, incorporating it into our body would also be a waste.”
A girl said, “We want the mutated Star Spirit Beads of the Black Demon Wolf and the Blood Demon Bear. We need both the Star Spirit Beads and the Star Spirit Stones.”
Lu Yu understood.
These people’s thinking is very correct.
Before becoming strong enough, guarding even the most precious treasures is useless. It’s better to exchange them for something practical.
Just like how Star Crystals can upgrade Star Soldiers and skills.
The Star Spirit Pearl can enhance the Star Soul.
The mutated Star Spirit Beads of the Black Magic Wolf and Blood Demon Bear should be aimed at enhancing attack skills and Life Fury.
These skills are all highly valuable; having them nearby can significantly boost one’s strength in a short amount of time. In a world like this, this is the most important thing.
Only those with strength have everything; this is the law of the end times.
Their choices were very correct.
“You name the price,” Lu Yu said, looking at the twenty Blue Star Souls, and the other item that somewhat resembled a soldier’s soul, yet also bore similarities to a mutated Star Spirit Pearl.
Since it was a round object, only as big as a Spirit Star Pearl, yet its design somewhat resembled a Battle Soul.
Lu Yu picked up the orb, which emitted a faint white glow in his palm.
He possessed abilities that others could not even begin to guess. In his hands, these things could not hide a single attribute.
At the moment the Eye of Truth activated, a faint white light flickered in Lu Yu’s eyes as he swept his gaze over the sphere.
Li Yi and the others felt their hearts rise to their throats, unsure of what Lu Yu had noticed.
They couldn’t see through the orb either, but anything associated with the Blue Planet’s soul was surely nothing ordinary.
They each had their own price in mind for the orb, yet they also feared that Lu Yu might not accept it.
Looking at Lu Yu’s expressionless face now made it even harder to tell what he was thinking.
After Lu Yu swept the orb, he put it down and said, “Go ahead and name your price. As long as it’s within my budget, I’ll take all of these items.”
“Great!” Li Yi exclaimed, clenching his fist in excitement.
Several people behind him were so excited that they hugged each other, knowing that all these items had been sold out.
Li Yi swallowed hard and said, “What we mean is: one hundred thousand Star Spirit Beads, one hundred mutated Star Spirit Beads from Black Magic Wolves, one hundred mutated Star Spirit Beads from Blood Demon Bears, and five hundred Star Spirit Stones!”
After Li Yi finished quoting the price, he immediately fixed his gaze on Lu Yu’s face, eager to see what expression Lu Yu would show.
It can be said that this price is a bit high.
In Fanggang City, even Lu Yu might not be able to come up with it right away.
But their psychological price point is indeed such that if it were any lower, they would truly feel like they’re losing money!
“This—” Lu Yu’s heart quivered as he frowned and said, “I can accept the price. However, the quantity you’re requesting is too large for me to provide all at once. If you’re willing, I can deliver it in batches.”
As soon as Lu Yu finished speaking, Li Yi and the others nodded rapidly, almost bursting into cheers.
“Yes, yes.” Several people trembled with excitement all over their bodies.
If you wait for some time, the value of these items might increase further.
But they couldn’t wait any longer.
This price was enough for them to firmly establish themselves in this city.
Of course, their target wasn’t this city.
In this city, with Lu Yu and that mysterious figure, they never stood a chance.
“I won’t take advantage of you. I will gather these items within three days. If it takes longer than three days, I will pay an additional few dozen star spirit stones for each extra day,” Lu Yu replied solemnly, without a trace of joking.
Li Yi and the others were taken aback, not expecting Lu Yu to say such a thing.
“Why? Why would you do that?” a girl asked, looking at Lu Yu with confusion. It was rare for someone to willingly offer such an interest rate.
Ten Star Spirit Stones, that’s not a small number at all.
“I don’t know how you obtained these things. But I do know that none of you acquired them easily. Whatever you fought desperately to obtain, they are worth it.”
Lu Yu replied solemnly.
He understood the laws of survival in this end-time world.
He himself had been on the brink of death many times, and understood that feeling well.
Based on these efforts, what he did was worthwhile.
Li Yi and the two men had red rims around their eyes, while tears streamed from the corners of the two girls’ eyes.
Such danger is something you can only understand its horror through personal experience.
“Mr. Lu, thank you for your understanding,” Li Yi said, bowing deeply to Lu Yu. “I believe no one else would understand our efforts as you do.”
A man nodded, wiped away a tear with his sleeve, and said, “Li Yi, we won’t hide it anymore. Given what Mr. Lu has just said, how can we still be so narrow-minded?”
A girl nodded and said, “Brother Li, I agree too.”
“Me too…”
The other two nodded in unison.
Li Yi looked around at his companions, nodded, and said, “Alright.”
As he spoke, Li Yi turned his gaze toward Lu Yu and said respectfully, “Mr. Lu, originally we had another piece of information we planned to sell to you after this deal was completed. However, based on what you’ve just said, we’ll give this information to you for free.”
As he was speaking, before Lu Yu could even open his mouth, a female voice cut in, saying, “There’s a cave that rises from underground three miles outside the northern gate of Fanggang City. We obtained our items there. At the cave’s entrance, there was a Blood Demon Bear guarding it. We lost two companions to successfully draw it away. All of the—”
The girl’s voice, somewhat choked with emotion, said: “We got the items inside. There are even more powerful monsters guarding the place, so we only managed to snatch out a portion.”
“Blood Demon Bear Guardian!” Lu Yu couldn’t help but feel surprised upon hearing the girl’s words.
Li Yi nodded and said, “We couldn’t even get close enough to make contact. We just managed to obtain these from the outermost perimeter and then withdrew.”
At this point in time, a creature like the Blood Demon Bear should have at least one attribute that has already reached the peak of the first level.
And yet they could only stand guard on the perimeter—what kind of monster was inside?
Level two life?
Lu Yu frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and then said, “Before we know exactly what’s inside, I can’t really say how much this information is worth. Wait for my answer, and I’ll be sure to give you all a satisfactory price.”
“No, no, this information is our gift to you,” Li Yi and the others hurriedly shook their heads and said, “Since it’s a gift, we won’t ask for anything in return. Besides, we currently don’t have the capability to get involved ourselves. If we wait too long, it will be even harder to find an opportunity once others discover it. Giving it to you now won’t bring us any loss.”
Several people firmly shook their heads, decisively rejecting Lu Yu’s request.
“Since you have treated us with sincerity, we don’t want to act like petty people either!” one man said, “Based on Mr. Lu’s character, if we come across any discoveries in the future, we will definitely seek you out again.”
“Okay,” Lu Yu said. Seeing that they firmly refused, he didn’t insist and nodded in agreement.
This time, it’s not just about reaching a higher level of profit—it’s like actually striking gold.
The Soul of the Blue Planet is a good thing.
But that orb holds greater value.
In front of those people, he didn’t want these individuals to notice the changes in his emotions or figure out what kind of person he was.
This orb can be considered a type of weapon spirit. However, it is not an ordinary one.
It takes as many as ten Star Spirit Stones just to achieve fusion.
After parting ways with these people, Lu Yu quickly flew back to the mine.
Just as he was still thinking about the sphere, Number One approached with a piece of star spirit stone in hand and said, “This is a second-grade star spirit stone; we excavated a piece of it today.”
“Secondary-grade Star Spirit Stone?” Lu Yu was slightly taken aback, but accepted it and examined it carefully.
This is a stone that appears black yet emits a hint of purple luster. The starlight on its surface seems even more numerous and brighter, giving the impression of holding a small cluster of stars in one’s hand.
“Very well,” Lu Yu said, taking out thirty Star Spirit Stones and handing them to Number One. “Distribute them; this is my reward for you all.”
For them, just a taste of the Star Spirit Stone would be enough to satisfy their desires.
Now, it’s not only possible to have more than three meals a day, but there are also rewards.
Holding even a small piece of a Star Spirit Stone, they felt it was a great happiness.
Lu Yu had been waiting for this secondary-grade Star Spirit Stone all along.
He also has a second-grade soldier soul called the Demon-Slaying Sword, which increases attack power by 2,070 points. It causes a bleeding effect with 100% chance on attack, slows the enemy’s wound recovery, and inflicts a damage-over-time effect of 500 HP loss per second until the enemy’s wounds heal.
He was just waiting for this grade-two Star Spirit Stone.
Now I’ve finally gotten this Spirit Stone.
“One day full of surprises after another,” Lu Yu couldn’t help but exclaim.
These days have been absolutely amazing.
Where could one have found such a life in the past?
First, he integrated the second-level war soul and obtained the Demon-Slaying Sword.
This is no ordinary sword. The Demon-Slaying Sword can be hidden within the arm, meaning the entire arm becomes a sword. Once this arm swings, it strikes like a sword slash.
An ordinary sword suits Lu Yu, and this very sword is exactly what he wants.
Lu Yu then used a Blue Planet Soul to extract the special effect from the Soul Gathering Hand and integrated it into his body, turning it into a passive skill. However, the attribute of the special effect that caused 310 points of damage through Laceration was not extracted.
With only a little over 300 attack points and no special effects, Gather Soul Hand became a common star soldier, and Lu Yu gave it to the魔猿.
The best thing left in his hand was that round ball.
“Energy Sphere, I never expected you would end up in my hands like this.” Lu Yu rubbed his hands together, a glimmer of eager anticipation in his eyes.
This is absolutely a one-of-a-kind item; there won’t be a second one.
