Greed King's Indirect Help

--- Chapter 321 ---

Yu Long stared at the burning light deep in the obsidian helmet's gaps, ignoring the slight numbness on his shoulders, and replied, "Okay."

"I will kill Nan Bigu for you." 

"And don't worry..."

"I won't make it easy for him." 

The Greed King took a deep breath and lifted his hands off Yu Long's shoulders, "Thank you." 

"I will remember this favor forever." 

"Honestly, I'm surprised." Yu Long stretched his shoulder slightly. "I don't know you're such an emotional fellow." 

"Even with so much hatred for someone, you didn't ask me for a chance of killing him yourself." 

"Because I can't." The Greed King slumped on the ground, laying on the green grass weakly. "Kings can't interfere with each other's tests." 

"Nan Bigu was an exception to this rule because he abused the loophole of not having "domain" or "anything" to protect anymore." 

"As much as I want to skin that bastard, boil his whole body, and roast him with the very flame of hell, I can't touch him because he was part of your test now." 

"Fuck! I'm not in the mood to do my test now!" The Greed King cursed as he stared at the clear blue sky in annoyance.

"What's your test? I told you mine, so you shouldn't be so stingy." Yu Long changed the topic because he didn't want to listen to Greed King's rants for the next three hours.

The Greed King harrumphed, "My test was not difficult now that I knew Nan Bigu was in this dimension. I only have to complete the crest of Lament." 

"After all, my crest was incomplete as long as Nan Bigu was alive." 

"..." Yu Long's mouth twitched in disbelief. He already changed the topic, but it actually connected to this guy's enemy for some reason.

He shook his head helplessly and asked, "Anyway, is there any important information you wanted to share about this guy?" 

"His power? Weakness? Personality?" 

The Greed King sighed, "Nan Bigu was from a universe where life as a human didn't end as it is." 

"After death, one becomes a ghost or resentful spirit that can gather dark energy or negative emotion to empower oneself." 

"Nan Bigu was the Ghost Emperor. He can manipulate dark energy or negative emotion, creating minions and possessing others with a little strand of his will." 

"His weakness is naturally light elements. All that is opposite of darkness and negative emotion is his weakness." 

"As for his personality, he was a coward with an arrogance deep in his bones and soul." 

"Simply put, he's the embodiment of "bully the weak and fear the strong" type of guy." 

Yu Long frowned slightly and commented, "I seemed to know someone like this guy. No, their resemblance is uncanny..." 

"Oh?" The Greed King's interest was piqued. "Is there such a person in your life?" 

"Yeah, one of the scums from Olympus." Yu Long sneered. "The Trash of Darkness, Hades." 

"Coincidentally, we knew that Olympus intruded the Primal Chaos Dimension this time." 

"No, it might not be a coincidence." The Greed King sat up. 

"This Hades guy might be one of Nan Bigu's incarnations." 

"After all, Nan Bigu's power to control others with his dark energy is easy to see through." 

"When Hades comes to you, we should be able to sense it." 

"Here, take this." The Greed King suddenly threw a scroll to Yu Long. 

"Since I can't help you directly due to the rules of Destroyers, I can help you learn something new with transactions."

"What transactions?" At first, Yu Long was confused. "Oh, you mean..." 

"Yes." The Greed King laughed sinisterly. "Don't kill Hades so quickly, and use the method in the scroll to trace Nan Bigu back." 

"Bye, we will see each other again soon." 

After saying that, the Greed King vanished into thin air. 

"Hey, wait!" Yu Long was speechless.

This guy literally came and went away without notice.

He slowly looked down at the scroll in his hand. It looked ancient and made of animal hide with a bright aura.

Opening the scroll, Yu Long saw the introduction of an ocular technique, which surprised him a little.

"God-Breaking Eyes." 

"An Ocular Technique from Heaven's Eyes Clan, capable of breaking 10,000 illusions and darkness with light-enhanced sight."

"This technique was meant for Heaven's Eyes Children to see truths from a young age and not be confused by wicked thoughts of others." 

"1st Stage: Delusion Breaking." 

"2nd Stage: Starry Eyes." 

"3rd Stage: Ever Changing Perspective." 

"4th Stage: Universe like dust."

"Fifth Stage, or the peak mastery: Eternal Light." 

Yu Long read the content of the scroll with a gusto. He didn't expect the Greed King to give him such a "useful" technique. Unfortunately, this skill was useless without a "certain" organ that only Heaven's Eyes Clan had, the Third Eye of Light.

No, the Greed King didn't give this technique without a reason. He must know that the Kaiju Maker could create something similar to the Third Eye of Light. At the same time, he also trusted Yu Long's strong ability to modify techniques that suited him.

"Happy cooperation, then." Yu Long smiled faintly, storing the scroll in his pocket before jumping off the cliff.

Swoosh!

Yu Long turned into a gentle breeze and flew off into the Demon Imperial City, starting his research on this new "Ocular Skills" that might modify the Profound Art of Violet Mist. After all, the God-Breaking Eyes are inherently light-based techniques.

Honestly, Yu Long seemed to neglect the aspect of spiritual power all this time. It's not because Yu Long doesn't want to develop a Profound Art in such a field, but he didn't know where to start. 

Thankfully, Yu Long's mental defense is inherently strong with the help of [Kaiju Maker].

He also copied the aspect of Xia Qingyue's Heart of Snow Glazed Glass, which gave him natural protection against impure things and grew his soul over time.

The effect is not apparent, though. Yu Long's soul was already strong enough, but he still felt it was growing slowly.

After Yu Long arrived at the Demon Imperial City, he notified Huan Caiyi and others about his discovery of the Destroyer's Test. At first, they were shocked but hurriedly calmed down and told him to focus on it while leaving the matter of Blue Pole Star's defense to them.

Yu Long felt a natural warmth in his heart, grateful for the presence of women who understood him—truly a godsend. 

He reassured them he wouldn't be gone too long, as the God-Breaking Eyes were not too hard to master. 

However, Yu Long didn't simply go into seclusion. He also secretly left contingency plans across each continent to ensure the safety and well-being of his women and family.

One of the contingencies is naturally Yu Long's Kaiju. He has spread them all over the Blue Pole Star, though most stayed in the three continents.

At this very moment, the Shadow Realm, with the help of the Lost Heaven Sect, Thousand Weapon Association, and Heavenly Demon Cult, has begun its first wave of movement.

Each "major" branch has gained enough control of the Blue Pole Star, making Yu Long the sole and absolute owner of this star realm. 

Once they solved this incoming invasion, Yu Long could brand the Blue Pole Star and make it his own. 

"Olympus, let's see how long you guys can dance..." Yu Long's golden eyes blazed with a ferocious light as he wickedly smiled and walked into a dark cave.
