Chapter 2994 - 2994: Double Grade 5!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The end of his lifespan could be seen at a glance! It did not feel good to be able to see the end of this lifespan at a glance!

Before Zhong Zhiyu grew up, he had seen too many outstanding people die in the torrent of time. Zhong Zhiyu knew his current situation very well. In the next 10,000 years, it was difficult for him to take another step forward.

In the past, as the master of the Holy Feather Villa, Zhong Zhiyu was all-powerful outside and unwilling to admit this.

However, Zhong Zhiyu had beca prisoner who was about to be controlled by Lin Yuan. Even his freedom would be taken away, and his aura had weakened. It was no longer as imposing as before.

Zhong Zhiyu felt he had to explain this to Lin Yuan in advance.

Zhong Zhiyu knew Lin Yuan valued him because he was a Grade 5 Creator. If he were not one, Lin Yuan would not have cto see him.

Zhong Zhiyu chose to submit and work for Lin Yuan in the future, but he could not spend all his tand energy to be this tool!

Zhong Zhiyu’s words not only let Lin Yuan know that Zhong Zhiyu was indeed in a predicament in terms of lifespan but that he was quite honest with him as well.

“If you choose to join me, you will beca Class 5 Creator under Sky City. I won’t restrict your freedom if you join Sky City, but there’s no need to find spiritual ingredients that can increase your lifespan!”

Upon hearing that, Zhong Zhiyu was stunned. For a moment, he did not completely understand what Lin Yuan meant.

When Lin Yuan said that he would not restrict his freedom, Zhong Zhiyu could not help but relax.

However, what did Lin Yuan mean when he said he was not allowed to search for spiritual ingredients that could increase one’s lifespan? If he didn’t look for spiritual ingredients to increase his lifespan, how could he extend it? Could it be that Lin Yuan was afraid he would waste tsearching for spiritual ingredients that could increase his lifespan?

When Zhong Zhiyu thought of this possibility, he looked at Lin Yuan with a look of desperation.

Lin Yuan sensed the change in Zhong Zhiyu’s expression and knew he had misunderstood him.

However, Lin Yuan did not point it out immediately. He had already becan expert in psychological control. It would be much better to let Zhong Zhiyu know about the Lifespan Mouse later and resolve his worries.

“Why? I’m willing to join you, but are you saying you’re unwilling to extend my lifespan?”

Lin Yuan didn’t say anything. Instead, he glanced at Winter.

Winter immediately understood Lin Yuan’s implication and replied, “No core members in Sky City seek methods to extend their lifespan. It’s because longevity isn’t a concern for us.”

With a gesture towards the sky, Winter continued. “Joining Sky City means achieving immortality, not just dreaming of it. With endless lifespan, there’s no need to seek further means of prolonging life.”

Though Zhong Zhiyu acknowledged Winter’s power, he couldn’t help but scoff at the notion. “Do you takefor a fool? Endless lifespan is nothing but a fantasy. If it were possible, even ants could becgiants! Surely, the vast Sky Beyond the Clouds would have changed by now!”

Lin Yuan anticipated Zhong Zhiyu’s skepticism. Without encountering the Lifespan Mouse, he would have shared the sentiment.

“Our trust seems lacking,” Lin Yuan remarked. “I propose a test. If I prove my claim, then release your holy spirit and submit to me. If not, you’re free to leave without coercion. What do you think?”

Zhong Zhiyu’s eyelids fluttered at Lin Yuan’s challenge. Realization dawned: Lin Yuan wasn’t bluffing. There truly existed a means to attain eternal life!

With a racing heart, Zhong Zhiyu contemplated. Before Lin Yuan’s influence, he’d have dismissed such an offer outright. Now, however, the prospect seemed irresistible.

Although he still did not believe Lin Yuan’s words, Zhong Zhiyu was already somewhat convinced.

“If you can really letobtain an endless lifespan, so what if I release the holy spirit for you to control?”

With that, Zhong Zhiyu released his holy spirit.

Just as Zhong Zhiyu released his holy spirit, Lin Yuan heard the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen exclaim, “Master, his holy spirit is very suitable to nurture holy maids! His fire- and lightning-type holy spirit should be considered the best among the fire- and lightning-type holy spirits!”

Lin Yuan rejected the notion without thinking.

What a joke. No matter how suitable Zhong Zhiyu’s holy spirit was to nurture a holy maid, the value of a holy maid was definitely inferior to a Grade 5 Creator!

Lin Yuan waved at Zhong Zhiyu, signaling him to ccloser.

When Zhong Zhiyu arrived, Lin Yuan took out the Lifespan Mouse and looked at him with a smile. With Zhong Zhiyu’s ability, he should be able to see the depths of the Lifespan Mouse at a glance and know that it could provide an endless lifespan.

Lin Yuan smiled when he saw Zhong Zhiyu tense up at the Lifespan Mouse’s sight.

“I think I should be able to control your holy spirit now!”

Lin Yuan began to control Zhong Zhiyu’s holy spirit.

While Lin Yuan was controlling Zhong Zhiyu’s holy spirit, the latter did not resist and allowed Lin Yuan’s holy spirit to mark it.

Zhong Zhiyu looked at the Lifespan Mouse with a complicated gaze. After a while, he lowered his head and said, “From now on, I will be a member of Sky City. Please guide me! If you needto follow you from now on, I will disband my Sacred Feather Villa. It is only my private organization. I don’t like crowds by nature, so I didn’t form a Creator group like other Grade 5 Creators.”

If Zhong Zhiyu had a Creator group under his command like Yi He, Lin Yuan would really be reluctant to bring him along.

Zhong Zhiyu did not have a Creator group like Yi He, so Lin Yuan did not have to worrv so much.

“Contract the Lifespan Mouse first. After contracting it, return to the Holy Feather Villa to organize the resources and bring your subordinates. Then, return as soon as possible and meet me. I will stay here first to explore the mid-grade blessed land that is about to be born here. Remember to take care of your subordinates. Don’t spread the information about the Lifespan Mouse!”

Lin Yuan’s words were equivalent to telling Zhong Zhiyu to keep him by his side.

Zhong Zhiyu already understood the Lifespan Mouse’s situation. Although this Lifespan Mouse was extremely weak, it could infinitely increase the lifespan of the contractor by replenishing vitality.

The contract between the Lifespan Mouse and the contractor was equivalent to connecting their lifespans. Whether it was the Lifespan Mouse or the contractor, the other party would die directly.

Being controlled by the holy spirit did not mean that one’s life and death were controlled by the other party. However, if the contracted Lifespan Mouse fell into the hands of others, it meant that one’s life would be controlled in the future.

Zhong Zhiyu smiled bitterly. Lin Yuan’s words were not a question but a request. He had no right to say no!

Zhong Zhiyu placed the Lifespan Mouse in Lin Yuan’s hand.

“It won’t take long forto return to the Holy Feather Villa to gather supplies and dispatch troops. I’ll be able to return within seven days.

“These people under my command were all nurtured bysince I was young. They all have the stongue asand will not spout nonsense. You can rest assured about this!

“From now on, I will be under your command just like Winter is. Why don’t we call you Young Master like he does?”

Since Zhong Zhiyu had been forced to join Lin Yuan, he would not put on a long face and go against Lin Yuan. It was stupid to resist when his life was already in the hands of others.

If Zhong Zhiyu wanted to make such a choice, he might as well fall out with Lin Yuan from the start.

“It will takeabout a week to explore this mid-grade blessed land. I will still be here before you return.

“You’re much older than me, so I’ll call you Uncle Zhong!

“Uncle Zhong, although you haven’t established a Creator group, you should know a lot of Creators. If you know any Creators who are about to reach the end of their lifespan, you can introduce them to me. If Sky City establishes a Creator group, I can allow you to be the team leader!”

When Zhong Zhiyu heard that, he vaguely guessed his thoughts.

Lin Yuan still possessed additional Lifespan Mice, intending to utilize them to exert control over more high-grade Creators.

Zhong Zhiyu was acquainted with several Creators on the brink of their lifespans. After all, many Creators began seeking spiritual ingredients to prolong their lives when they had between 10,000 to 20,000 years remaining. “Young Master, I am aware of Creators nearing the end of their lifespan. I’ll reach out to them and explore if they’re open to trading freedom for an opportunity to extend their existence. I’ll brief them beforehand before bringing them to you.”

Upon hearing Lin Yuan’s plan to assemble a Creator team, Zhong Zhiyu was appointed as the team leader.

Zhong Zhiyu was geared up to recruit more Creators into Sky City.

Unbeknownst to Zhong Zhiyu, Sky City harbored only two Grade 5 Creators, with one currently absent. As the lone Grade 5 Creator beside Lin Yuan, he held the highest capability among Sky City’s residents.

Concerned about the intense pressure of leading the team, Zhong Zhiyu anticipated unwavering support from those he brought into Sky City.

Lin Yuan was delighted when Zhong Zhiyu volunteered to clarify the situation to the Creators, foreseeing it would alleviate much hassle.

Handing Zhong Zhiyu a ramet of the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower and a Thoughts Letter Paper, Lin Yuan introduced them, “We usually communicate via the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower. This paper will facilitate communication with all Sky City’s core members once you’re with us.”

Zhong Zhiyu solemnly stowed away the ramet and the Thoughts Letter Paper, fully aware that he would be bound to Sky City for life.

When they arrived at Sky City, Zhong Zhiyu was prepared to build a good relationship with the core members of Sky City. This was extremely beneficial to his development in Sky City!

As for his subordinates, because they were used to tyrannizing others, they would likely cause trouble for him in Sky City.

Zhong Zhiyu was prepared to control his subordinates. If anyone still did whatever they wanted and did not know how to restrain themselves, he would not mind getting rid of these subordinates he had nurtured.

Zhong Zhiyu’s subordinates were both assistants and servants. Yet, Zhong Zhiyu did not have many feelings for these people.

He could get rid of them and choose stalented fellows to nurture.

Zhong Zhiyu had a little hobby that no one knew about. He enjoyed the process of nurturing and training his subordinates.

After Zhong Zhiyu left, Lin Yuan revealed a carefree smile.

Before leaving North of the Lonely River, Lin Yuan was still thinking about how to enrich Sky City’s Creator team.

Not long after he left, Lin Yuan now had two Grade 5 Creators and three Grade 4 Creators under his command!

However, this was only the beginning. Lin Yuan now had many Creator channels, and it was very convenient for Sky City to attract more Creators through these channels.

Winter looked in the direction where Zhong Zhiyu had left and said, “Young Master, this Zhong Zhiyu can be said to be outstanding in both strength and talent. He’s very worthy of you nurturing him in the future!

“From all aspects, Zhong Zhiyu is stronger than Vi He, who you just took under your wing. It’s very difficult to make a Grade 5 Creator submit. Before you came, I thought that attacking was always inevitable. Fortunately, Zhong Zhiyu is smart enough and knows how to bend and be flexible.”

Lin Yuan scratched his head awkwardly. Winter saw him as too omnipotent.

In truth, Lin Yuan lacked the resources to nurture Zhong Zhiyu. To provide resources beneficial to Zhong Zhiyu, he had to await Morbius’s next evolution.

Lin Yuan now had the option to select feys to spirit lock. Without selecting more, Morbius wouldn’t evolve either.

Lin Yuan’s spirit-locked feys were the Jasmine Lily, Blackie, Purple Afterglow, Sky Sea, Green Vine, the Realm Abyss Red Lotus, the Sky-Questioning Flaming Heart Mushroom, and the Brahma Flower Jade Blood Snake..
