Cosmic Trading System

It has to be said, having an elder in the family is like having a treasure. There's a lot of truth to this saying.

Bahu Ye was now hundreds of thousands of years old. The depth and richness of his experiences were incomparable. Speaking with Lin Yun and his companions had vastly broadened their horizons.

"Hundreds of thousands of years old..." upon hearing Bahu Ye's age, one couldn't help but utter in amazement.

What kind of longevity was that?

Though they already knew that a twelve-level cultivator, barring any accidents, could easily live over a million years. Actually meeting someone who had lived that long was still astonishing. Even when they previously met numerous owners of the Cosmic Trading System on Qino Star, very few of them were of this age.

Back then, they didn't have such in-depth conversations with those individuals.

"Being hundreds of thousands of years old does indeed make one old, but as ordinary people, we can't compare to those from the Immortal Origin Holy Land. I've heard that there, either the Saints or the powerful individuals reach their present state in just a few hundred or several thousand years at most..." Upon seeing the group's reaction, Bahu Ye chuckled.

A few hundred years, a few thousand years... in comparison to their advanced civilization, the lengthy lifespans of many humans seemed insignificant.

Such a young age and already reaching the level of power, even achieving the status of a saint. What did that imply?

It was as if they were the beloved children of heaven, blessed with all the luck and favor in the universe.

This made Bahu Ye quite envious.

We ordinary people...

If ordinary members of the Bahu family or the common folks of the Eight-Level Civilization Star Domain heard Bahu Ye describe himself this way, what would they think?

In their eyes, Bahu Ye was an unparalleled genius with extraordinary talent. He was someone they admired and envied.

If Bahu Ye, a famous figure in the Eight-Level Civilization Star Domain and someone who had made quite a name for himself in the Nine-Level Civilization Star Domain, considered himself average, then what did that make them? Worthless?

"Chief Bahu is too modest. At three to four hundred thousand years old, you are in your prime. As for the Immortal Origin Holy Land, not everyone living there is as powerful as you think. Many are ordinary people with little to no strength and have significantly shorter lifespans." Lin Yun said, smiling faintly.

From the previous Saint Mother, he had learned about the conditions of Earth a few thousand years ago. The strength development of the Earth's human race was extremely disproportionate. Some were incredibly strong, while others were incredibly weak.

Through his earlier conversation with Bahu Ye, he suspected that Bahu Ye didn't have a complete understanding of the current state of the Immortal Origin Holy Land. Hence, he was not worried that his words would make Bahu Ye suspicious of their identities.

They were on good terms with the Saint Mother, the Mother of the First Saint.

Technically speaking, they were not unfamiliar with the notable figures of the Immortal Origin Holy Land.

"I once spent some time in the Immortal Origin Holy Land. There were very few individuals as talented as Brother Lin. It is not improbable for someone like Brother Lin to break the boundary of power, even reaching the level of a saint..." Bahu Ye said, shaking his head.

As he said this, Bahu Ye's heart pound fiercely.

Yes, Lin Yun was so young yet possessed such immense strength. Based on his knowledge of the rise of some powerful individuals in the Immortal Origin Holy Land, it was not impossible for Lin Yun to reach the level of power, even the level of a saint.

Moreover, Lin Yun's companions were also very talented and powerful. It was not impossible for them to reach the level of power, even the level of a saint in the future.

He simply hoped that through Lin Yun and his companions, he would get a chance to visit the Immortal Origin Holy Land and listen to a saint's preaching again.

If Lin Yun or his companions could break through to the level of power or even the level of a saint in the future, establishing good relations with them now would be a great opportunity for him.

With this in mind, he became even more eager to get to know Lin Yun and his companions.

Now that he had the opportunity to interact with Lin Yun's group, he must seize it and befriend them.

...

Half a day later, Bahu Ye became more familiar with Lin Yun and his group.

We did not know each other until we fought. Brother Lin, it's a bit weird for you to keep referring to me as Chief Bahu, and it's troublesome for me to keep calling you little Brother Lin. If you don't mind, you can call me Brother Bahu, and I will call you Brother Lin, how does that sound?" Bahu Ye suggested after giving it some thought.

"Agreeable." Lin Yun nodded slightly.

He wasn't too bothered about the form of address.

While trading on the Cosmic Trading System, many owners of the Cosmic Trading System, upon seeing his youth, had also addressed him as Brother Lin.

Although Bahu Ye was considerably older, this world valued power above all else.

His strength was not much weaker than Bahu Ye's. It was normal for them to address each other as equals.

...

Five days passed in a flash.

"Brother Lin, we've arrived." Lin Yun and his companions were cultivating in a big hall when Bahu Ye suddenly teleported into the hall and announced, smiling.

"Hmm?"

Lin Yun opened his eyes and looked up at a screen.

Sure enough, there were already many warships at the location marked as the destination.

"Brother Bahu?"

"So, it's Brother Bahu who's arrived!" Your journey continues at My Virtual Library Empire

"Hehe, Bahu Ye, it's been a long time!"

Soon, the communication devices of some warships connected with this battleship's communication device, and projections of some people appeared in the battleship, all laughing.

Clearly, all these people knew Bahu Ye.

"These people …"

Lin Yun's pupils contracted slightly.

Through the projections, he couldn't make out these individuals' specific strengths, but he noticed their warships—all Level 9 Technology Civilization level battleships. Almost none were low-quality or mid-quality Level 9 Technology Civilization battleships. The worst was a high-quality Level 9 Technology Civilization warship.

There even was one—like Bahu Ye's—which was a top quality Level 9 Technology Civilization battleship.

Given this, these individuals' strengths were likely not low.

Apart from anything else, the power of these warships was no joke.

If these people cooperated with Bahu Ye, could they resist them …

Lin Yun still remembered the conflict his party had with the Bahu Family a while back.

However, Lin Yun soon exhaled.

It shouldn't come to that …

Previously, Bahu Ye, combined with his top-quality Level 9 Technology Civilization battleship and many Spirit Crystals, already had an impressive combined strength.

If there were any issues, they would've shown up already.

There should be no need to go around in circles like this.

He was the owner of the Cosmic Trading System.

The fact that they handed so many Spirit Crystals to him clearly indicated they were trying to increase his strength.

Such a huge amount of Spirit Crystals and such a significant bait?

Only a fool would do that!

Moreover, he had also found records of these coordinates in the Cosmic Trading System.

There should be no problem with these people.

"Brother Lin, most of these people are famous characters from Level 8 Civilization Star Domains. That one comes from the same country as me, the patriarch of the Haolian Family. That one belongs to a federation not far from me. He is one of the big shots of the federation. That one is a genius of a Level 9 Civilization Star Domain …"

After disconnecting the communication device, Bahu Ye pointed at the images those people left, turned his head towards Lin Yun, and laughed while introducing each of them to him.

"If Brother Lin would like to get acquainted with them, we could all gather later and I could introduce you," After pausing for a second, Bahu Ye continued.

"No need. I don't really wish to get involved in too many personal situations," Lin Yun shook his head and replied.

Truth be told, he was on the introverted side.

Initially, when he was in business, he had to converse with others and even actively negotiate with them.

Now, he had no need to negotiate with anyone and thus didn't feel the need to meet too many strangers.

After all, they were all just passers-by in this cosmic space. This time, they were merely traveling together.

There was no guarantee that something would happen on the road.

Once they reached the destination, they would go their separate ways and possibly never cross paths again.

There was no necessity to get acquainted.

"Okay," Bahu Ye exhaled slightly and nodded with a smile.

He was actually worried that if Lin Yun got to know too many people, it could weaken their rapport.

But from what it looked like, Lin Yun wasn't the type who enjoyed making new friends.

Hmm, this was a good personality trait.

Such individuals were either indifferent, which Lin Yun didn't seem to be, or they valued relations because they treasured feelings. Such people usually didn't abandon friends quickly and were worth investing emotions in.

Based on his intuition, Lin Yun seemed to be the latter type.
