Set Items and Luo Feng

Bai Yang had never been this anxious since arriving in this world. He ran like the wind, lightning fast.

He pushed his martial-level speed to its absolute limit.

In just a few minutes, he was back in his single-person dorm, checking the system's changes.

On the forum, another video clip of his even more astonishing speed and endurance had already appeared.

"System update complete! Please receive the information, host!"

A massive chunk of information suddenly flooded Bai Yang's mind, forcing him to close his eyes and absorb it for a long while.

This system upgrade was triggered by his breakthrough to martial artist, stepping into the first official realm of the Swallowed Star World.

To better assist him, future random draws would now include a brief overview of the "target Earth's" situation, making it easier for him to choose.

He had now accumulated two [Earth Points], each a gift for breaking through minor and major realms.

"Apprentice level 9? So before I advance to Planetary level, I can get an extra 8 Earth Points? The system is too thoughtful!"

And he finally learned a better use for Earth Points!

Besides drastically boosting rewards, they could also refresh the current reward!

Even more, after accumulating 3 points, he could lock onto a Swallowed Earth for a five-year [True Simulation]!

"This makes things way more convenient. If I roll a bad reward, I can just save points and eventually buy 'time.'"

Current Simulations: 1

Countdown: 364 days

Earth Points: 2

Bai Yang made an immediate decision and started the draw: "System, begin simulation! Use 1 Earth Point!"

"Ding! This simulation begins... Target: YuYu Hakusho Earth."

A flood of information about this Earth instantly entered his mind for reference.

"This is an Earth full of demons and monsters? Mainly two forces, the Spirit World and the Demon World, fighting?

Their power systems are called 'Spirit Power' and 'Demon Power,' completely different from a tech world, closer to soul death energy and magic?"

Bai Yang vaguely remembered this work from his past life—seemed to be some old hack's creation, and the protagonist's job was something like a Spirit Detective.

This kind of power, so different from the Swallowed Star World, operating on an entirely separate dimension, might actually be useful?

Then let's...

"Congratulations, host! Randomly selected [Spirit World]: The Meddlesome Spirit Detective!"

"This simulation has ended. Please choose:

1. The Spirit Detective's ability and cultivation

2. The Spirit Detective's combat insight

3. The Spirit Detective's detective kit

4. Earth Points +1"

The Meddlesome Spirit Detective? Detective kit?

This time, items appeared in the rewards—he hadn't expected such a change.

Since Earth Points could refresh rewards, the reward pool was clearly broader than what he'd seen before.

He'd already used 1 Earth Point, so the reward definitely wouldn't be trash.

But could it be even better?

Staring at the remaining 1 point, Bai Yang fell into thought.

"Forget it. Consider it a way to get familiar with the system—I have to see everything eventually."

"Use 1 point to refresh the reward."

On the light screen, the original options instantly changed to:

1. The Spirit Detective's true memories

2. The Spirit Detective's blood essence

3. The Spirit Detective's detective kit

4. Earth Points +1"

"The last two are completely unchanged. A meddlesome Spirit Detective? Meddlesome? Meddlesome!"

"System, I choose 3."

A flash of light, and a leather suitcase abruptly appeared before Bai Yang's eyes. The Spirit Detective kit was inside.

He excitedly opened the case, and eight items came into view.

After reading the instruction manual tucked inside the suitcase, he knew he'd made the right choice!

There were many things in the case, but only three were useful to him.

Yet these three items could produce astonishing effects.

[Spirit Strike Ring]: "You can use spirit attacks? What a coincidence—this ring can multiply your attack power several times over! And it's invisible normally."

[Spirit Energy Meter]: "The original compass could only find monsters. How inconvenient was that? I modified it. Now it can find people and objects with high spirit energy too. Just chant in your mind. Tell me, am I amazing or what?"

[Spirit World Oar]: "Ahem, this thing belongs to the Underworld Guides. I know I shouldn't have taken it. But it can turn invisible and fly—I just borrowed it for research. No big deal, right?"

Looking at the ring before him, a palm-sized compass, and a wooden oar floating in midair, Bai Yang was speechless.

Truly a Spirit Detective with itchy fingers!

"Those fingers really are itchy, but it works out in my favor."

Using the Spirit World gear required spirit energy, and since the system had given him the option, it meant Bai Yang could use it.

He wasn't worried about that, but he knew this set would see frequent use from now on.

Next time if he drew the YuYu Hakusho world again, he would definitely choose a method to boost his spirit energy.

Reading this instruction manual, Bai Yang understood the value of this equipment.

The Swallowed Star World was full of opportunities, but unless you were the protagonist Luo Feng, you wouldn't have the luck to find treasures everywhere.

This Spirit Energy Meter would come in handy.

Spirit energy was a somewhat ethereal force—it could be understood as any person, object, or place with special high energy.

With it, Bai Yang might be able to find wild Spirits of Vegetation outside Mist Island, those early-stage divine medicines.

Even Moya Crystals weren't out of the question.

And in the Wilderness Zone, this tool would help him spot powerful monsters more easily, allowing him to absorb and evolve. Wasn't that enough?

As for the oar and the ring—one provided mobility, the other attack power—they were naturally very useful too.

These pieces of equipment came from a power system outside this universe. Perhaps on that distant, mysterious Origin Continent, there might be a similar system.

As for whether the Spirit World Earth counted as one of the three thousand universes, who could say?

This harvest would rapidly strengthen his power, and that alone made it worthwhile.

"I'm really looking forward to getting to the Wilderness Zone sooner."

July 1, 2056, Yangzhou City, Bright Moon Residential Quarter entrance.

Bai Yang stood here, his heart surging with emotion. This day had finally arrived!

Over the past few days, aside from his daily physical training and constant self-improvement, he had repeatedly rehearsed in his mind everything that would happen today.

This was the day in the original story when Luo Feng and Bai Yang met, and when they both passed the quasi-warrior assessment together.

More importantly, it was the day when Luo Feng's father, Luo Hongguo, was nearly framed and beaten by the villain Zhang Haobai!

Zhang Haobai's strength was undoubtedly that of a minor character.

But Luo Feng's rise could be said to have started because of him, with crises chaining one after another, triggering a series of events.

This was a day that absolutely could not be missed if he wanted to befriend Luo Feng.

It was also the day he would officially obtain the Genetic Energy Cultivation Method!

This day was far too important!
