“Please speak.”
Mr. Liao’s expression became serious, yet he felt relieved inside.
For him, having Lin Yuan make a request was less worrisome than Lin Yuan having no desires or demands.
“I would like a Virtual World Cabin Slot.”
Lin Yuan said.
A Virtual World Cabin Slot could scan the entire body, thereby perfectly simulating the flesh body, and then synchronize it with the flesh body in the virtual world.
Having returned from his travel through dimensions, Lin Yuan’s strength had greatly increased, but his virtual world flesh body remained as it was before the journey.
If it were other Evolvers, they wouldn’t have much need for a Virtual World Cabin Slot, after all, it would take them who knows how long to enhance their strength even once.
However, Lin Yuan possessed an Against-Heaven’s Understanding, and his own strength could be said to be increasing every moment.
Not to mention that every return from his journeys brought about a qualitative change.
Therefore, he needed the Virtual World Cabin Slot to constantly update his strength within the virtual world.
“A Virtual World Cabin Slot… No problem.”
“I will have someone send it to Mr. Lin right away, you’re still at the Shuiyue Residential Complex, correct?”
Mr. Liao agreed without a second thought.
After all, a Virtual World Cabin Slot was not a restricted item. As long as someone was an Evolver, they had the right to apply for the use of a Virtual World Cabin Slot from the association.
Giving Lin Yuan one was no big deal.
Objective achieved.
Lin Yuan chatted idly with Mr. Liao for a few more sentences.
Then he stood up and returned to the Shuiyue Residential Complex.
That afternoon.
Lin Yuan received the Virtual World Cabin Slot.
Following the usage instructions to scan his body with the slot and copy it perfectly, Lin Yuan immediately connected his consciousness to the virtual world.
Inside his personal room.
Lin Yuan unleashed his full power in one strike, and a terrifying force spread, directly piercing through a mountain peak in the distance.
“Now that’s more like it.”
A smile appeared on Lin Yuan’s face.
On Canglan Star, Lin Yuan couldn’t afford to strike at full power, let alone strike casually.
After all, with his strength, a casual strike could result in the deaths of tens of thousands of citizens.
But in the virtual world, all of this could be ignored.
With Lin Yuan’s current citizen privileges, the size of his personal space had reached 10,000 square kilometers, and it could simulate any environment, which was more than enough for him to indulge in.
“Let’s see the number of practitioners currently on the Martial Path Evolutionary Path.”
Lin Yuan opened his personal interface and viewed the details under the Martial Path Evolutionary Path.
[Evolution Path: Martial Dao]
“Hmm… it’s increased by over a thousand.”
Lin Yuan was slightly surprised.
But Lin Yuan soon reasoned that it might be the publicity effect of the Canglan Evolution Ranking.
The Martial Path Evolutionary Path had already made it into the top eight of the evolution ranking, so it certainly wasn’t low in exposure.
“Let’s check the private messages. If the price for mentorship is right, I may as well accept a few.”
Lin Yuan began to browse through his private messages.
Many people were interested in the Martial Path Evolutionary Path and were willing to pay a hefty sum to ask Lin Yuan, the path’s founder, for guidance.
This way, they could also gain a clearer view of the characteristics of this evolution path and whether it was truly suitable for them.
“Ah, how many flesh bodies have I gone through? Which evolution path is right for me…”
Within a vast hall, Loulan He complained as he climbed out of the nurturing pod.
He stood about one and a half meters tall, with a forehead covered in mysterious patterns.
“Young Master Loulan, within the many evolution paths of human civilization, there is not a single path that is smooth sailing,” said a black-robed elder standing beside him respectfully.
“I know, I know,” Loulan He said helplessly.
He glanced down at his ‘brand new’ body and grimaced: “Looks like I have to start all over again.”
A few years ago, Loulan He had taken a fancy to the ‘Heterogeneous Blood’ evolution path and purchased a large supply of precious blood from giant star beasts for cultivation.
The ‘Heterogeneous Blood’ evolution path allowed one to accommodate many giant beast bloodlines and eventually merge them into one’s body. Once cultivated to the extreme, one could easily transform into any star beast or ferocious beast encountered.
This evolution path was incredibly powerful, especially in the early stages.
Of course, there were risks. Different ferocious beast bloods could reject each other, and a moment’s carelessness could lead to a body exploding.
Loulan He had died because of this method.
However, Loulan He always synchronized his consciousness with the cloud, and with preparations made in advance, he had replicated an untrained body.
After exploding and dying, his consciousness transferred to the new body, perfectly avoiding true death.
Although he had survived, the cost was huge. First of all, much of the investment into cultivating the ‘Heterogeneous Blood’ path had gone to waste.
But Loulan He wasn’t concerned about that; his father held a high position and had plenty of money.
It was the wasted time that was the real issue.
“Xiao He, this time in choosing your evolution path, you should exclude those that rely on external forces or items,” a gentle female voice advised.
Loulan He knew it was his mother reminding him.
“Okay.”
Loulan He sighed.
He wasn’t suited to walk the evolutionary path of his parents.
So he could only pick another suitable one from the various other evolutionary paths.
But after over ten continuous attempts, every time he practiced halfway, he would die.
“Just pick a random one this time.”
Loulan He was a bit despairing, but still, following his mother’s instructions, he skipped over those evolutionary paths that relied on external forces and objects.
Loulan He started browsing at random.
“Huh, the potential of this evolutionary path actually reaches the Sixth Rank?”
Loulan He’s gaze suddenly stopped, looking at an evolutionary path named ‘Martial Tao.'”
Loulan He’s eyes showed surprise.
A Fifth Rank evolutionary path with a theoretical potential reaching the Sixth Rank.
Isn’t anything strange.
After all, the difference between them is not big.
But a Fourth Rank evolutionary path with theoretical potential reaching the Sixth Rank.
That’s somewhat unthinkable.
That was even more surprising for Loulan He.
“Father said, ‘The Goddess of Wisdom doesn’t lie.'”
“Let’s take a look at this evolutionary path.”
Then he began to read them carefully.
“Hmm…”
Loulan He’s expression was grave.
He couldn’t understand it.
“Ask the founder of this evolutionary path, and let him give me some guidance.”
After pondering for a while, Loulan He felt that the Martial Tao evolutionary path was somewhat suitable for him, so he offered a payment for its founder to give him some guidance.
“Let’s make it one billion.”
Loulan He thought of an amount.
The price for guiding him, Loulan He, definitely can’t be low.
One billion should be about right.
“The founder’s name is ‘Yuan’?”
Loulan He checked the detailed information of the Martial Tao evolutionary path and directly sent his request along with the payment via a private message.
Shuiyue Residential Complex.
Lin Yuan was browsing through private messages.
Just then, a new private message came through.
“I’m Loulan He, hoping to receive guidance on the Martial Tao evolutionary path, and for that, I am willing to pay one billion civilization coins.”
“How much?”
Lin Yuan read it again.
One billion civilization coins?
Lin Yuan blinked.
He too could take out one billion civilization coins.
For other entry-level Evolvers, gritting their teeth and scraping together the funds, they could also come up with such an amount.
But.
This one billion civilization coins was merely to ask for his guidance for one hour.
That was a bit extravagant.
“Agree.”
Lin Yuan immediately chose to agree.
Why refuse free money?
As Lin Yuan accepted the request,
the Virtual World sent out another application.
[Loulan He has invited you to his personal space. Do you accept?]
“Agree.”
Lin Yuan accepted once more.
Out of caution, before going there,
Lin Yuan adjusted his appearance a bit.
The next moment,
the space around him transformed.
Lin Yuan appeared in a vast golden hall.
In the center of the hall on the throne was a figure clad in a purple robe.
This figure was only one and a half meters tall, with a forehead covered in mysterious patterns.
Upon seeing Lin Yuan,
Loulan He immediately came down.
He then slightly bowed to Lin Yuan, saying, “I have seen ‘Yuan’ Teacher.”
Coming from his parents’ teachings, Loulan He respected any creator of an evolutionary path immensely.
