Journey to Elf Star

After leaving the Awakening Center, the group went straight back to Lin Yuan's residence.

In less than half an hour, Ye Feng had finished excitedly reporting to his superiors and hurried over in a rush.

Gulp, gulp!

After downing in one breath the plain water Lin Yuan had poured for him—not even caring whether there were tea leaves in it—Ye Feng looked at Lin Yuan with appreciation. This child not only had a good temperament, even his talent was innate full soul power.

"Little Lin, you have innate full soul power. Mm, I recommend that for your first soul spirit, you can try fusing with a higher-level hundred-year soul spirit. As it happens, the nearby Spirit Pagoda has some for sale."

Lan Xiao and the others nodded, especially Nan Cheng, who looked at Lin Yuan with envy.

Without a doubt, Lin Yuan had an impeccable background and was so talented as well. His soul spirit would definitely be carefully selected by the military through contact with the Spirit Pagoda—and he might not even have to spend any money!

As a soul master from a civilian background, she knew all too well what that meant.

One had to know that a soul spirit several hundred years old already cost an astronomical sum. Lan Xiao and she could be considered upper-middle-class, but even for them, it was still an unimaginable amount of money!

However, Lin Yuan shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Uncle Ye, but Uncle Ye, can you get me a ticket to Elf Star?"

"A ticket to Elf Star?" Ye Feng frowned deeply.

Ten thousand years ago, the soul beasts and the Federation had reached an agreement to coexist peacefully, and Elf Star was one of the autonomous planets the Federation had given to the soul beasts.

Ye Feng was not surprised that Lin Yuan knew about Elf Star.

After all, this child had been able to speak since birth. While other children were playing, he was either sleeping or reading, and he understood even more than children—sometimes even more than soul masters.

"Little Lin, you mean you want to sign a contract with those soul beasts in Elf Star's Peaceful Garden?"

Ye Feng did not stop him. After thinking seriously for a moment, he shook his head and advised, "As far as I know, Peaceful Garden is full of soul beasts nearing the end of their lifespans. Those soul beasts are proud and aloof. They won't choose you. Of course, I'm not trying to discourage you. It's just that your soul power is far too low right now. If you were at three rings, then without you even saying anything, we in the military would definitely find a way."

"If you can't go to Peaceful Garden, then that means you can only search on your own initiative. Little Lin, that's too dangerous. Even we in the military can't go deep into Elf Star."

"I know, Uncle Ye, but I want to decide on my soul spirit myself. If it really doesn't work out, worst comes to worst I'll come back and buy an artificial soul spirit from the Spirit Pagoda, won't I?" Lin Yuan leaned back on the sofa, his voice lazy.

At these words, everyone except Lan Xuanyu fell silent.

A six-year-old child who had just awakened his martial soul wanted to go deep into Elf Star?

Although the outskirts of Elf Star were unlikely to have hundred-thousand-year soul beasts and the like, thousand-year and hundred-year soul beasts still roamed everywhere!

Even three-ring Soul Elders would not dare wander around outside!

How did you even have the nerve!

Lan Xiao, meanwhile, was filled with emotion.

I want to decide on my soul spirit myself. What an independent personality that showed. From this, one could see just how lonely Lin Yuan had been before meeting Xuanyu.

Ye Feng still wanted to keep persuading him, but when he saw Lin Yuan's dark, black-hole-like eyes staring quietly at him, it was as if they were saying, If you don't agree, then I'll think of a way myself!

This Little Lin.

Ye Feng shook his head with a wry smile.

"All right. But the price of going to Elf Star is far too expensive, and it also requires a quota. I need to ask my superiors for instructions."

"I'll cover the cost myself." Lin Yuan shook his head.

"What are you talking about? Your parents sacrificed themselves for the Federation and made tremendous contributions. How could we possibly let you pay? Just wait."

Ye Feng did not avoid them either. He took out a dedicated phone on the spot and made the call.

When the person on the other end heard that Lin Yuan wanted to go to Elf Star by himself, his reaction was just as intense as Ye Feng's had been earlier. The two talked for who knew how long before Ye Feng finally hung up and let out a breath.

Ye Feng smiled and said, "It's settled. Next Friday, a ticket to Elf Star. When the time comes, someone will come pick you up."

One week later.

Friday.

The weather was clear at Tianluo Planet Aerospace Center.

After saying his goodbyes to Lan Xuanyu and the others, Lin Yuan hugged his thermos and, led by the personnel sent by the military, boarded the spaceship bound for Elf Star.

And the moment Lin Yuan boarded, almost everyone's gaze turned toward him, their faces showing surprise.

There was no other reason. He was simply far too good-looking. Over the past two years, Lin Yuan had grown increasingly handsome.

He was practically the Creator's most perfect mirror, with picturesque brows and eyes, red lips, and white teeth.

Especially those slightly narrowed eyes of his, which were like stars. He looked somewhat lazy, but once one met his gaze, it was as if they were drawn in by it and could no longer look away.

In particular, with people in military uniform accompanying him on both sides, the lowest rank among them a major, people could not help secretly wondering which family's young master this was.

The loudspeakers explained all kinds of knowledge about spaceships.

Unfortunately, unlike Lan Xuanyu in the original work, who loved battleships and spaceships, Lin Yuan was not interested in these spaceships, battleships, or anything of the sort.

Lin Yuan had always believed that only when one was strong oneself was that true strength.

After arriving in first class and sitting in the seat booked in advance, someone pulled his safety belt into place. Before the safety shield closed, Lin Yuan sighed.

To be honest, he really did not want to be this conspicuous. Until he boarded the spacecraft, he had been thinking an ordinary cabin would be good enough, but he had not expected the people sent by the military to put him straight into first class.

After seeing him in, they did not remain in first class, but headed toward the ordinary cabin.

First class was far too expensive—so expensive that even the military could not put everyone in first class. They only left a gentle-looking woman in her twenties sitting beside him.

The spacecraft rushed into space.

"Little Lin, even in first class, there's very little room to move around. Haven't you awakened your martial soul? You can try meditating. Although you don't have a soul ring yet, and the effect of meditating in space definitely won't be as good as on Tianluo Planet, just treat it as practice.

"Oh, right, Little Lin, you do know how to meditate, don't you?"

The woman in her twenties, who held the rank of major, looked at Lin Yuan with a smiling gaze. No matter how she looked at him, she felt Lin Yuan was good-looking.

Lin Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, nodded, and did not speak.

Of course he knew how to meditate. He had already learned it within this week.

Other people don't get good results meditating in space, but I'm different. I have Voice of the Stars and Gravity. My natural battlefield should be in space.

As his thoughts drifted, Lin Yuan entered meditation, emptying his mind.

It was different from meditating on Tianluo Planet and facing the star core.

In the vast universe, there was no planet there for you to listen to quietly. Fortunately, Lin Yuan had already awakened the Gravity martial soul.

What was gravity?

It meant gravity would never disappear. Even if it was so weak that the most precise instruments could not detect it, that did not mean it had vanished.

The small black sphere, even smaller than a palm, slowly appeared above Lin Yuan's head. His spiritual power used it as a springboard, constantly spreading outward.

He sensed the stars beyond the reach of the naked eye, the planets, the asteroids, and also the supernova that had expanded to its limit and was on the verge of erupting.
