Cosmic Trading System

"Hum— Hum— Hum—"

Soon, Lin Yun saw the crimson glow from the blood-colored long sword intensify, as three spheres of light rapidly rotated within it. Among these spheres, a white and a blue one appeared united, striking against a third red one from both sides.

"Brother, you must stop the sword from absorbing any more blood... This spirit is proving to be tougher than Little Blue and I had imagined..."

In no time, Little White conveyed this message to Lin Yun.

"Alright! I'll stop it right now! Damn it, how could I forget about that!"

The color drained from Lin Yun's face as he hastily agreed, all the while pulling the blood-colored sword from a corpse.

After all, this blood-colored long sword could be considered a kind of essential magic weapon for this spirit. The odds were already stacked against Little White and Little Blue as they fought inside the Blood Sword. Lin Yun's continuing use of the blood-colored sword to absorb the vital blood essence was like pouring oil on fire.

"Hum—"

As Lin Yun pulled the blood-colored long sword out of the corpse, the sword vibrated slightly, seemingly displaying its discontent.

This showed that the intelligence of this blood-colored long sword was indeed inferior to Little White and Little Blue's.

Lin Yun's concerns were slightly alleviated.

If worse came to worst, Little White and Little Blue could still retreat.

His mental focus was on the blood-color long sword, watching over it every moment. If Little White and Little Blue showed any signs of distress, he was ready to help in any way he could.

He could always abandon this blood-colored long sword if necessary.

One minute... Two minutes...

The battle outside had escalated.

The Golden Beast was dashing left and right, unable to escape and repeatedly emitting roars of fury.

Seeing this, Mingdu wore a face full of delight.

Today really was a day of great harvest; the Heavenly-luck Flower, was merely an appetizer, merely bait to lure out the Golden Beast. This Golden Beast was the real catch of the day.

He had already strategized how he would deal with the beast once he had it under control.

It would be best to tame it...

A Golden Beast was at least a Peak Level 12 being - typically no match even for Peak Level 12 cultivators, let alone a robot with the strength of a Peak Level 12 cultivator.

A robot's levels generally fell short of cultivators at the same level. This disparity widened at higher levels.

Moreover, Level 12 robots weren't even available on the Cosmic Trading System, neither for the late stage nor for Peak level.

If he successfully tamed this Golden Beast, he would have a super fighter whose power exceeded that of most Peak Level 12 cultivators.

Who could stand against him unless a legendary Super Warrior appeared?

Even if he ventured to those few super civilizations, he would still remain formidable.

He would certainly stand out among numerous masters of the Cosmic Trading System.

If this Golden Beast managed to break through to the Super level in the future, he would be on the road to ultimate success.

He would be unstoppable across the entire universe. Should he stomp his foot, countless civilizations across the universe would be trembling in fear.

And Lin Yun?

What was he compared to this?

Right now, Lin Yun was merely Level 9. After that, he still had Level 10, Level 11, Level 12...

Moving from Level 11 to Level 12 was a significant hurdle!

It might not be a problem for Lin Yun to break through to Level 10, but breaking through to Level 11 would be extremely challenging!

Unless he uses the Cosmic Trading System for help...

But a breakthrough obtained in that way would be quite ordinary with limited potential. He would no longer have to be wary of Lin Yun.

Thinking this, he glanced over at Lin Yun's battleship nearby.

"Still not leaving? Are you unwilling to let go? No matter, you can see for yourself how fruitful my catch today is. I'm eager to see your face painted with regret…" A smirk crossed Mingdu's lips as he chuckled.

...

Ten minutes later.

"Brother, this spirit is not an ordinary spirit, it seems to be a damaged one. It was originally far stronger than Little Blue and me. We communicated with it and it reluctantly agreed not to transmit negative information to you when the blood-colored long sword is absorbing blood.

However, most of the information is emitted by the sword itself and it finds it hard to control, so there might still be a few..." Finally, Little White relayed this message to Lin Yun.

"So, it can only reduce a part of it? Well, that's still something!"

Lin Yun's eyes shone as he hastily agreed.

The fact that Little White and Little Blue were able to reduce the negative effects from the blood-colored sword was already an unexpected surprise. He couldn't be too demanding; otherwise, it would simply be greed.

Initially, he found it hard to use the Blood Sword to break through to Level 10. Now, however, he was eager to give it a shot.

"Then, you and Little Blue should come out!"

Looking at the Blood Sword, Lin Yun said.

After Little White and Little Blue came out, he would continue to use the blood-colored long sword to absorb the vital blood from these corpses.

"We don't need to leave. Little Blue and I are here to monitor it. I feel it's a little disobedient. I'm afraid it won't keep its word." Little White communicated.

"Um... Are you sure you will be alright?" A look of surprise crossed Lin Yun's face as he asked.

"We'll be fine. If it resists, stop sucking the blood, Brother, and we'll fight it again." Little White said.

"Alright then." Lin Yun nodded.

With Little White and Little Blue overseeing the spirit of the Blood Sword, Lin Yun felt more at ease.

To be honest, Lin Yun didn't entirely trust the promises it had made to Little White and Little Blue.

This Blood Sword was truly nefarious.

"Boom—"

Lin Yun plunged his sword into a body at his feet, and once again, a surge of immense power flowed from the Blood Sword into his body.

"Kill! Kill! Kill..."

As expected, even though the overwhelming urge to kill was still flooding his mind, it was much less intense than before, both in quantity and quality.

"Don't keep too much of these energies for yourself. Give more to Big Brother." Soon, Lin Yun heard Little White's mumbling from inside the Blood Sword.

"Hum—"

The crimson blade hummed continuously, seemingly disgruntled and somewhat rebellious.

However, Lin Yun quickly realized that after the Blood Sword absorbed an equal amount of blood, his body's strength increased more than before.

"It seems that the spirit inside the Blood Sword has submitted…"

Lin Yun nodded secretly.

He didn't expect that the spirit inside the Blood Sword could do that.

It seemed that having Little White and Little Blue within the Blood Sword was indeed a great help.

The amount of power the Blood Sword granted was now larger, meaning it must have been absorbing less for itself. Now he could amplify his strength even more without worrying about being controlled by the Blood Sword.

With this, Lin Yun now had renewed confidence in breaking through to the tenth realm. Stay connected with My Virtual Library Empire

The tenth realm…

A glint appeared in Lin Yun's eyes.

A normal Heavenly-luck Flower could only improve a ninth realm cultivator by two levels.

Only the Heavenly-luck Flower obtained in the last hour of the three-day celestial rain could provide a ninth realm cultivator with a three-level boost.

Before, as a beginner in the ninth realm, even with a three-level boost, he would merely reach the peak of the ninth realm.

Now, he had a chance to break through to the tenth realm.

His power was increasing at a greater rate, most likely increasing his speed as well.

This Blood Sword was truly against nature.

"I guess, the defiance of this Blood Sword might outweigh the Cosmic Trading System…" Lin Yun mused.

There were many who possessed the Cosmic Trading System, but as one progressed, growth became harder. How many Cosmic Trading System masters could reach the true peak?

Don't be fooled by the seemingly smooth development he and Mingdu had in the Kodis Empire.

He heard that in some advanced civilizations, the Cosmic Trading System was not just widespread; they could be extremely numerous. One could imagine how difficult it must be to obtain Spirit Crystals in such an environment.

Moreover, when their development reached a certain stage, the Cosmic Trading System couldn't support them in some aspects.

For instance, there were no robots matching those at the late stage, or the peak stage, of the twelfth realm on sale in the Cosmic Trading System.

Same went for other items of the same level, such as aid for upgrading cultivation realms. None were available for purchase.

At that point, these owners could only rely on themselves.

However, this Blood Sword seemed to elevate one's power without any apparent limit.

Moreover, the speed was incredibly fast.

True, the Blood Sword would emit strong negative information when absorbing blood essence, enough to trigger a demonic frenzy in a person if one lost control.

But, if one could keep it under control, it was an impressive weapon.

A weapon that could guide one to true supremacy.

If so, in some people's eyes, the value of this Blood Sword could surpass that of the Cosmic Trading System.

"Hmm? Value?"

At that moment, a thought crossed Lin Yun's mind.

With such powerful abilities, if he were to auction off this Blood Sword on the Cosmic Trading System, he wondered how many Spirit Crystals he could get?

At this thought, Lin Yun's eyes brightened.

He was almost certain that the value of the Blood Sword far surpassed that of the Heavenly-luck Flower.

So, the number of Spirit Crystals he could get would be significant.

How many powerful robots could he buy using these Spirit Crystals? Would Mingdu and his team still pose a threat?

"Not bad, if there's no other choice… I'll do it this way!"

Lin Yun's eyes flashed, he murmured.

Mingdu, today, must die.

The Blood Sword's abilities, although potent, selling it was a bit regrettable. Ultimately, it was a demonic weapon. After finishing his tasks, Lin Yun couldn't guarantee he wouldn't use it himself or have someone else use it.

Those who are always near the river will inevitably get their shoes wet.

If an accident occurred one day, regret would come too late.

Selling it now, though a bit regrettable, would give him peace of mind and not allow him to dwell on the matter anymore.
