"Found it, finally found it!"
"After all these years, after waiting so long, it's finally here." Zi Ling's voice rang out, trembling with excitement and a touch of madness.
Like a drought-stricken farmer rejoicing wildly at the sight of sweet rain.
"What did you find? What have you found?" Ye Zhen was somewhat dazed by Zi Ling's sudden frenzy. Over all these years, Zi Ling had always been quiet and rarely spoke of his own accord.
But Ye Zhen quickly reacted, his gaze shifting to the chunk of Purple Extreme Flowing Gold still floating in the central hall.

"This is the only treasure I've encountered in all these years that can perfectly contain my spirit essence.

It seems that Heaven has treated me well this time, allowing me to find someone truly destined for me."
"Bid on it. You must get your hands on this treasure," Zi Ling urged Ye Zhen anxiously.
In his urgency, Zi Ling manifested from the spirit pillar of the First Sword Meridian for the first time, transforming into a small purple sword shimmering with Spiritual Light as he made his request to Ye Zhen.
"I also want to bid for this treasure. It can be forged into an Acquired Spirit Treasure..."
Before Ye Zhen could finish, Zi Ling eagerly cut him off. "That's wonderful! Then I can have a body again. It's been so many years, so many years... I can finally see the light of day again..."
