Solitarius was resting with his eyes closed in the courtyard. Without even opening his eyes, he knew that Yao Yue had arrived, "Yue Er, you're here. Are you planning to leave?"
Yao Yue bowed slightly and said, "Master, I brought a young man to see you." He then looked at Gudu Xiaofan and said, "Xiaofan, what are you waiting for? Greet the manor lord!"
Bang!
Gudu Xiaofan immediately knelt on the ground and said respectfully to Solitarius, "G-greetings, manor lord!"
Gudu Xiaofan was so nervous that he was stuttering.
Solitarius opened his eyes slightly and looked at Gudu Xiaofan. He then looked at Yao Yue and asked, "Yue Er, who is he?"
Solitarius was close to a thousand years old. He had not been in the manor for a hundred years, so he naturally did not pay attention to Gudu Xiaofan.
"Xiaofan, you can tell him yourself. There's no need to be nervous," Yao Yue encouraged Gudu Xiaofan.
Gudu Xiaofan stammered, "M-manor lord, I-I am Gudu Xiaofan. My father is Gudu Dazhi. My ancestor is Gudu Hong."
Solitarius came to a realization and said, "So you are a descendant of Cousin Hong's lineage. Why have you come to see me today?"
The Gudu lineage in Solitude Mountain had already withered away. Solitarius knew Gudu Xiaofan's background and felt a sense of familiarity with him. Unfortunately, Gudu Xiaofan's stuttering made him sigh inwardly.
How bright could a young man who was so nervous even when speaking have a bright future?
"Master, Xiaofan was born with divine eyes. He can see through certain things," Yao Yue interjected.
"What?!" Solitarius exclaimed.
Then, he pulled Gudu Xiaofan to his side.
Solitarius stared into Gudu Xiaofan's eyes and shouted, "Look at me!"
Gudu Xiaofan was startled, but he still looked at Solitarius with a timid expression.
At first, Gudu Xiaofan was forced to evade Solitarius' gaze, but gradually, he sensed something. A faint yellow glow appeared in his eyes, and two strange lights directly met Solitarius' gaze. An unexpected aura burst out from his body, completely different from his previous timid appearance!
"Haha, the heavens have eyes!
The Eye of the Earth has finally reappeared!
The heavens are really protecting me!
The heavens are protecting me! "Gudu Liu lost his composure and laughed wildly.
Gudu Xiaofan was scared out of his wits. The light in his eyes shrank back, and he became timid again!
"Master, what is the Eye of the Earth?" Yao Yue asked in surprise.
"The Eye of the Earth is one of the innate divine eyes. It can see through earth and stone, and dispel all illusions. It is innately connected with the Earth Mystic Energy. Not only is it useful for searching for energy and setting up formations, it is also very beneficial for cultivation!
Those who possess the Eye of the Earth are stronger than ordinary masters even if they don't cultivate the art of searching for energy! "
Solitarius explained. He paused for a moment before continuing, "There is a record in my ancestral record that one of my ancestors was born with the Eye of the Earth, and he became the most outstanding master on the Earthly Star. He brought glory to Solitude Mountain!
Unfortunately, something happened to that ancestor, and that's why Solitude Mountain was unable to rise! "
As Solitarius spoke, his gaze toward Gudu Xiaofan became very amiable.
Yao Yue did not expect Gudu Xiaofan's divine eyes to have such a history. She said to Solitarius, "Congratulations, Master. Solitarius finally has a successor!"
"Haha, that's right!
Xiaofan, you can stay by my side from now on. Your ancestor and I are brothers, so we are family. You can be considered my great-great-grandson, so you can just call me Great Grandfather! "Solitarius laughed.
"Xiaofan, hurry up and thank your Great Grandfather!" Yao Yue reminded Gudu Xiaofan when she saw that he was still in a daze.
Joy appeared on Gudu Xiaofan's face as he said, "T-Thank you, Great Grandfather!"
"Child, your Eye of the Earth has yet to fully awaken. Don't resist or touch it in the future. You won't stutter like this in the future!
Great Grandfather will teach you our Gudu Clan's cultivation technique so that you can raise your strength as quickly as possible. Great Grandfather will also teach you everything he knows! "Solitarius said kindly.
Yao Yue could see how much Solitarius doted on Gudu Xiaofan.
This kind of attitude was something that even he and his Eldest Senior Brother had rarely seen before!
"Master, I plan to head to the Fiery World Star.
After I fulfill my wish, I will come back! "Yao Yue took the opportunity to say.
"Yes, you have been with Master for quite some time now. It's time for you to leave.
Master has already prepared a gift for you! "Gudu Liu responded and summoned a battleship out of thin air.
Yao Yue's eyes lit up when he saw the warship, and he exclaimed, "T-This is a Saint Warship!"
"That's right. This is the battleship that Master used to ride. Now that I've repaired it, it's powerful enough. As long as you don't encounter a Great Saint, you won't have to fear being hunted down by anyone!" Gudu Liu said affirmatively.
Solitarius was an outstanding origin formation master, and he had recently become a Great Sage. How could a warship he repaired be weak?
"Thank you for your gift, Master!" Yao Yue said happily.
He had witnessed the might of a Saint Warship. With it, he would be like a tiger that had grown wings. There was nothing to be afraid of!
"This warship consumes a huge amount of ki stones. Although Master has prepared a lot of ki stones for you, we don't have many saint crystals. If you encounter a Great Sage and launch an attack, it won't be enough. So, try your best to avoid all kinds of trouble and use ki stones sparingly!" Solitarius reminded.
"Yes, Master. Disciple will remember!" Yao Yue nodded.
Solitarius then handed a spatial ring to Yao Yue. It contained a few thousand high-grade ki stones and a few hundred saint crystals. There were also some notes on how to draw a formation on the warship. In addition, there was a mid-grade Saint Skill of the Earth Realm!
Solitarius had spent a lot of effort on Yao Yue. This amount of wealth was enough to make the other disciples jealous!
Solitarius couldn't be blamed. If it weren't for Yao Yue, he would have already died. How could he have the chance to sit here and become a Great Sage?
Besides, now that he had become a Great Sage, he could get these things back at any time in the future!
After Yao Yue bid farewell to Solitarius, he prepared to leave Solitary Manor with Xiao Liuzi and Zhao Tianyun.
Gudu Shichen was also called over by Solitarius to escort Yao Yue to the Fire Hook World Star!
Gudu Shichen naturally didn't refuse. He had already agreed to this matter.
Besides, now that he had reached his current realm, it was time for him to go out and walk around. This would be of great benefit to him when he broke through to the next stage!
After making all the preparations, Yao Yue and the others set off for the Fire Hook World Star!
The sacred warship Yao Yue was on was indeed astonishingly fast. In the blink of an eye, it had already rushed out of the nine heavens!
When the sacred warship left the Earthly Star, Yao Yue's face was filled with excitement. He shouted inwardly, Father, Mother, Yue Er is going to find you!
Yao Yue once again embarked on a journey of Nothingness, while his mother hurriedly rushed from Heaven Shaking Mountain to Solitude Mountain!
The mother and son brushed past each other just like that. Truly, the will of the heavens was toying with them!
In the void, there was no concept of time. The Saint Battleship shuttled through the void at an extreme speed, passing by numerous scenes of the void!
After calming himself down, Yao Yue said to the others, "It should take half a year to reach the Fire Hook World Star from here. Let's take turns guarding the warship for half a month!"
"Junior Brother, rest well. I'll take care of it for you," said Gudu Shichen.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Senior Brother!" Yao Yue accepted Gudu Shichen's request.
Yao Yue, Xiao Liuzi, and Zhao Tianyun each found a place to sit down.
The sacred warship was close to a hundred square meters in size. It was more than enough for them to cultivate by themselves!
Only now did Yao Yue have the mood to check the rewards he had obtained from Heaven Shaking Mountain.
Yao Yue looked inside the spatial ring and immediately revealed a look of joy, "The first emperor's reward is indeed extraordinary!"
He discovered that there were a hundred square meters of saint crystals, dozens of king herbs, a saint armor, a saint weapon, and a saint technique!
When Yao Yue took a closer look, he discovered that the saint armor and saint weapon were no ordinary items. They were all high-quality low-grade saint artifacts. As for the saint technique, it was a mid-grade saint artifact. Unfortunately, it was only a fragment.
Yao Yue had already destroyed a Saint Robe in the Heavenly Shaking Mountain, and this Saint Armor happened to be of use to him. As for the Saint Weapon, it was very much to his liking. It was called the Inverted Pattern Sword, and it was a sword of the Wind Realm's origin energy. As for the middle-grade Saint Skill, it was called Residual Wind Kick, and it was also an origin skill of the Wind Realm's origin energy!
Yao Yue had a feeling that these rewards were prepared for Di Feiying.
Di Feiying was known as the Son of Wind. The Inverted Rune Sword and Remnant Wind Kick were perfect for him.
If someone else obtained them, they might not be able to use them.
Fortunately, Yao Yue also possessed wind elemental energy. He could use these two saint artifacts as well.
"It's a pity that this is a leg technique and not a sword technique. If I had the Inverted Rune Sword, it would be much easier to use." Yao Yue sighed in his heart.
After that, Yao Yue looked at the things his master gave him.
His master gave him a technique called the Earth Fiend Fist. It was a technique that drew on earth fiend energy to unleash an extremely domineering and fierce fist technique.
This fist technique was perfect for Yao Yue.
He had already refined earth fiend energy. If he cultivated this fist technique, his battle prowess would definitely increase greatly.
However, if he wanted to unleash the power of the Earth Fiend Fist, he would have to at least reach the Half-Saint Realm or the Saint Realm.
After all, this was a complete mid-grade saint technique. With Yao Yue's current strength, he would not be able to cultivate it.
No matter what, Yao Yue could be much calmer in the future now that he had these treasures to rely on.
After that, he began to look at the handwritten book his master gave him. It recorded his master's many years of experience in searching for elemental energy and setting up arrays. This was extremely important to him at this point in time.
Yao Yue did not have many days to cultivate before he started to encounter trouble.
