"What's inside this?"
Luo Yu's eyes brimmed with curiosity, knowing that at this moment, Gu Yuena wouldn't have left anything useless.
Zi Ji shook her head with a bitter smile.
"Since the master specifically stated it was for you, I naturally didn't dare to look at it recklessly."
"You, you are not an outsider."
Luo Yu shook his head and said so, then immersed his spiritual consciousness into the ring.
That sentence made Zi Ji's heart surge.
This enchanting and seductive leather-clad beauty was now basking in joy.
Not an outsider?
Does the Beast God see me as one of his own?
Her emotions were a bit agitated.
She had harbored a secret love for the strongest Beast God of the Aquipeia Forest for who knows how many years, but because all female soul beasts knew that the Silver Dragon King also liked Luo Yu, she dared not confess her feelings.
Where would she have the courage to speak up?
If she were to dare to be presumptuous, she feared that by the next day, Gu Yuena would have eliminated her.
Although Gu Yuena may not necessarily do that, they were genuinely frightened.
This was also the real reason Luo Yu had been single for a million years; originally thinking his charm might be flawed, but in reality, it was an underestimation of Gu Yuena's deterrence.
Luo Yu's spiritual consciousness entered the spatial ring, and as soon as he did, he saw a spiritual imprint waiting for his activation.
Upon activating the imprint, Gu Yuena's voice left behind for him sounded in his ear.
"Luo Yu, if you have received this ring from Zi Ji, it means that I am either dead or have used myself as the formation's eye to seal away a great enemy for you."
"What you need to do now is not to feel sad for me, but to quickly make a breakthrough."
"Most importantly, you must preserve your own safety, and if you are not completely sure about taking revenge for me, then do not seek it."
"I only wish for you to be safe."
"If possible, I hope you can preserve the lineage of the Soul Beast Clan."
Luo Yu listened quietly, not making any response.
Because this was just a recorded voice imprint, it contained none of Gu Yuena's careful thought.
"I have left three things in this ring."
"The sealed remnant soul of the Rakshasa God and two secret techniques."
"Uniting the world should not be difficult for you, and you have also obtained the Fate Condensation Technique. I have looked over it, and it holds no harm; you should be able to successfully condense fortune, but as for how to find the Spirit of the Plane and merge with it, the Rakshasa God has yet to speak."
"I could not extract that information, so I'll leave it to you."
Luo Yu sighed.
Given the Rakshasa God's nature, he certainly knew that revealing the method of fusion would certainly lead to his death, and would probably never speak up even under threat.
That makes things difficult.
Trickery will be tough.
After all, this is the most cunning and deceitful Rakshasa God. It's easy to overpower him, but outsmarting him is another story.
"I believe you must find it hard to get anything out of the Rakshasa God through interrogation, so I have prepared a backup for you."
"The Soul Searching Technique."
"This technique is extremely difficult to cultivate, and requires one to be at least at the God Rank in order to learn it. It was discovered in a relic of the Divine Realm, and even I have not successfully cultivated it, failing to grasp the key to it."
"I think with your talent, you should have a chance. If not even you can do it, it means that this technique is impossible for anyone to learn, and it's a scam."
"If you manage to succeed, you won't need the Rakshasa God to speak; you will be able to search and find it on your own."
Luo Yu took a deep breath.
Gu Yuena had fully prepared for him, providing what could be called nanny-level logistical support.
He, a grown man, found his nose slightly sour.
To have such a beloved woman, what more could a husband ask for?
The voice continued.
"The last secret technique is the Space Jump Technique, even if something happened to me, I should still have tried my utmost to help you reclaim the remnants of the Spatial Dragon King."
"Having absorbed the Spatial Dragon King's Soul Ring, origin, and soul bone, you can now harness the power of space for your own use, thus possessing the basic conditions needed to cultivate this technique."
"Though the difficulty of training is high as well, once you succeed in mastering it, your speed of travel will surely increase dramatically, becoming unpredictable and elusive."
"Whether you are facing a powerful enemy in flight or in slaying foes, it holds great utility."
Luo Yu's body trembled.
This...
This was like someone sending a pillow when he was deep in sleep.
Gu Yuena had virtually solved all the problems he was currently facing.
He stood rooted to the spot, speechless for a long time, dumbfoundedly holding the ring.
The Rakshasa God's remnant soul and the Soul Searching Technique undoubtedly solved the problem of refining Qi Yun (Destiny).
And the Space Jump Technique perfectly addressed the issue of fearing he would not have enough time to rescue on various battlefields.
The biggest concern now was whether he could successfully cultivate the two difficult secret techniques in a short amount of time.
If it had been in the past, probably not, but now he was graced with the Nine Qi Luck Golden Dragons.
His understanding and affinity with the world had doubled.
Could he fail to comprehend the secret techniques?
Luo Yu clenched his fists, feeling that everything was aligning perfectly—time, place, and people. If he couldn't succeed in the end,
he'd damn well be Liu Adou, a good-for-nothing!
As the mark of Gu Yuena within the ring dissipated, her last message came through.
"Luo Yu, do not put too much pressure on yourself."
"You've never owed anyone, and you certainly haven't owed the Dragon Clan, so there's no need to obsess over avenging them."
"Before I met you, I dreamt of ascending to the Divine Realm to avenge my fallen kin. After meeting you, in addition to thoughts of revenge, I've come to hope more that you can live well."
"The cultivation of the secret techniques is very difficult. Even I haven't fully grasped the intricacies of the Soul Searching Technique, so if it doesn't work out, there's no need to force it."
"If you are well, my heart is at peace."
When the final strand of her cool yet gentle voice faded away, Luo Yu felt lost.
He had never seen such a tender side of Gu Yuena.
Perhaps it was because she felt they'd never meet again that she had so much to say.
He clenched his fists tightly.
No matter how difficult the path ahead was, he would continue on.
He was willing to make any effort and sacrifice necessary. A true man born in this world cannot always remain beneath the protection of a woman.
Luo Yu's gaze sharpened, cutting like a blade.
"Asura God—"
"You must die!"
The murderous intent and resolve radiating from the man at this moment were so intense that even the nearby Zi Ji felt a chill, her whole body trembling.
Luo Yu saw the change in the woman beside him and withdrew his aura.
He said softly,
"Thank you for coming all this way to deliver this. It must have been hard on you."
"You're welcome. There's no need for formalities, Beast God," responded the cold and breathtaking Demon Queen Ziji, surprisingly blushing with shyness.
If the soul beasts in the Aquipeia Forest, who were ruled by the Demon Queen, saw this, they would probably be shocked speechless.
"I've told you so many times, 'Beast God' is in the past. Just call me Luo Yu."
"No, you will always be the Beast God in my heart," the Demon Queen's beautiful eyes sparkled with strange colors.
"Zi Ji, we are in the midst of crisis now, I'm sorry that I cannot be a proper host to you, I must go and cultivate the secret techniques straight away," Luo Yu apologized.
A gleam of joy passed through Zi Ji's beautiful eyes, as she detected care in the man's words, not the domineering coldness, indicating that he cared about her feelings.
And with that, she was content.
"Please, go on with your affairs. Zi Ji won't delay you any longer!"
