"It is precisely to prevent this situation from occurring that we, the World Boundary Patrol Envoy, travel between the various star planes, ensuring that none of them become separated..."
That concludes the discussion.
The Skeletal Elder's tone suddenly softened; if he had flesh and blood, one could likely see a furrowed brow on his face.
"Whose order were we breaking away from?"
"How come I can't even remember this?"
After a long silence, he raised his head again and sighed, "Never mind, there's nothing I can do if I can't remember."
"Anyway, I'm already dead, and I've fulfilled my responsibilities Boundary Patrol Envoy while I was alive."
"That cosmic civilization that caused my severe injury and death... I don't remember its specific name, I only know that the person possessed an unparalleled and domineering Sword Intent, and was most likely a Sword Immortal who had just attained True Spirit."
His gaze fell on the waist token in Ye Li's hand, Skeletal Elder's words carried a hint of entrustment. "Logically speaking, he should have already been dealt with by my faction."
"But nothing is absolute; perhaps he escaped death through some means."
"If you ever encounter a similar immortal in the future, you might want to see if you can gather a wisp of their aura so I can investigate them. Perhaps I can even use this opportunity to recall past events."
"The waist tag contains all my inheritance from before my death. I lost a lot of it during my escape, but there should still be some left. You can use it as you see fit."
Seemingly, his previous Great Void Power was nearing exhaustion; his speech quickened, and the light in his eyes began to dim.
"I hold a very high rank among the Boundary Patrol Envoy. Using my badge, you should be able to mobilize other patrol envoys to some extent if you encounter them while you are out in the field."
"Of course, if your demands don't align with the principles of the Boundary Patrol Envoy, they can simply disobey, hehe."
"Furthermore, if possible, could you please inquire with them about my whereabouts? I've forgotten too many things..."
The Skeletal Elder's gaze towards Ye Li increasingly betrayed his pain, yet the admiration and praise in his words remained unmistakable.
"Your talent is extraordinary. To be honest, I don't recall ever seeing a more gifted cultivator than you."
"If you are willing to join the Boundary Patrol Envoy, it would certainly be a great blessing for all the star realms... Even if you are not willing, for the Inheritance of my legacy, Trouble your best not to go down the path of slaughtering mortals and devouring your own kind."
Ye Li nodded his chin lightly, neither confirming nor denying.
In fact, after collecting such a large number of souls...
He also understood why so many High-Tier Martial Artists would target their own kind.
Because the life energy contained within a martial artist's body is gentle and natural compared to wild Treasure Medicine that are naturally nourished and have violent effects.
Not only will there be no significant rejection, but consuming large quantities can also shorten the time originally required for cultivation.
For those old people nearing the end of their lives, this is simply a fatal temptation.
Even low-level martial artists, as long as the quantity meets the standard, can achieve a qualitative change through quantitative change.
Therefore, Ye Li never asked them why they devoured their own kind; he only cared about their current Martial Dao level and how much Malice Points they could earn.
He looked up at the Skeletal Elder and changed the subject, asking:
Do you still have a chance to be resurrected?
When Ye Li was exploring the Secret Realm on Tianheng Star, he encountered Spiritual Body that wanted to possess him.
Judging from the behavior of that Spiritual Body, even when its physical lifespan is about to end, it can still try to revive itself by using underhanded tricks and borrowing the body of a newly born prodigy.
Since the old man before them was a being close to an immortal, the methods he possessed must be even more exquisite.
Considering it can generate gold coins, Ye Li might consider giving it a try, as long as the method isn't too Trouble.
"Resurrection?"
Upon hearing this, the Skeletal Elder instinctively tried to shake his head.
After all, he had been dead for far too long, River of Time had left too many marks on him. Even this wisp of divine consciousness required a massive amount of energy to revive.
But considering the other party's absurdly rapid promotion speed.
He hesitated only for a moment before cautiously replying:
"It's very difficult. It's definitely not something that can be done by relying solely on the power of a Saint in the Great Void Realm."
"I understand, then let's talk about it later."
"... Actually, there was no need to give up so quickly."
The Skeletal Elder coughed twice and chuckled dryly, "At least for now, as long as I can get enough energy to nourish me, I can briefly regain consciousness."
"Although it seems that a slightly demented person can't help you much right now."
"But once you advance to the Dao Evolution Realm and become a Domain Lord, the energy nurturing alone should allow me to recall even more of the past!"
"So, to be honest..."
"Before this wisp of my divine consciousness completely dissipates, Trouble to revive me as many times as possible, young friend..."
The words had been spoken.
With Ye Li's tacit approval, the light in the Skeletal Elder's eye sockets completely dissipated, and he lay down on the ground once more.
"Alright, let's see what gold coins the old man dropped."
After straightening it in a reasonably pleasing position.
Ye Li let out a soft breath, took out the waist token that was previously engraved with the title "[Boundary Patrol Envoy]", and invaded it with his powerful Divine Consciousness.
You won't know until you see it.
Despite having mentally prepared himself, he was still stunned by the mysterious old man's legacy. "..."
Within this Boundary Patrol Envoy's waist token lies a vibrant space, resembling Grotto Heaven.
It was just a casual glance.
You can see thousands of superior Treasure Medicine growing on the land, including a crimson-gold divine flower growing in the heart of the lake, surrounded by the wondrous sight of dragons and phoenixes circling around it; towering emerald trees reaching into the clouds, their thick branches laden with abundant fruit; and scattered on the ground a vast expanse of...
Their only similarity is that they all start at least at the Tai Great Void Realm level.
Besides.
In Ye Li's perception, thick scrolls were placed on the most conspicuous mountain peak in the Grotto Heaven, all emitting a faint glow.
After taking it out and examining it briefly, he couldn't help but gasp in shock.
The system's loud notification tone sounded immediately.
