Chapter 586: The Mysterious Beads, The Unseen Black Mist Manifests!_1
```
Luo Yu extended his mental power into the storage space.
He found an extra bead in the space.
He reached out to grab the bead in his hand and brought it close to his eyes for a better look.
"What is this trash?"
Luo Yu was speechless.
"No way, could this really be the grand treasure from the God-level Gift Pack?"
He was somewhat incredulous.
But there indeed was only this one additional item in the storage space.
A bead about the size of a dragon's eye.
Utterly ordinary.
Its dull, yellowish color was indiscernible, its surface was full of cracks, and it seemed as if with just a little force from a finger, the bead would fall apart.
"System, come out and tell me what this piece of junk is?"
"If you threw this on the street, kids wouldn't even bother to pick it up."
The System remained completely silent as if it had gone into deep slumber.
Luo Yu had no choice but to ponder on his own.
He didn't believe the System would give him something worthless.
However, no matter how he looked at it or used his mental power to explore it, he could not discern any special features of the bead.
No, that's not right.
There was a feature.
And that was its extreme shoddiness.
A bitter smile appeared on Luo Yu's lips; after pottery jars and yellow soil, he had acquired yet another piece of refuse.
The shattered little round bead.
He tried to squeeze it with his fingertips and found that he couldn't crush it.
"Hm?"
A spark of interest flickered in Luo Yu's eyes.
He continued to increase his strength, but the apparently fragile yellowish round bead didn't acquire a single additional crack.
"It's this hard?"
Luo Yu, defiant, called forth the resonating dragon's roar in his palm as it turned into a dragon's claw.
Bursts of qi and blood erupted as he squeezed with all his might.
Still, the little round bead remained completely undamaged.
"Clang!"
The indestructible Nine Heavens Execution Sword appeared.
Luo Yu swung down with a chop.
"Clang!"
A sound of metal striking metal rang out, and the sword vibrated.
Luo Yu shook his numbed palm.
He looked in astonishment at the still little round bead lying quietly on the ground.
He was well aware of the resilience of the Zhu Tian Sword.
Especially since all seven Soul Rings had reached the seventy-thousand-year level, its power naturally scaled up significantly.
Yet it couldn't even scratch a damaged little bead.
This was outrageous.
Luo Yu sheathed his longsword, bringing the bead back into his palm.
He tried to activate it with his blood.
No response.
He channeled mental power into it, still without any response.
"Hiss..."
Luo Yu became frustrated, refusing to accept defeat.
His eyes glinted.
Purple-gold light swirled.
He activated the Creation God Pupil at its full, even overburdened capacity.
Two beams of divine light pierced through the void, shining directly on the ancient and yellowish round bead.
"There's something."
He sensed there seemed to be a huge shadow hidden within the small round bead.
He had just glimpsed an outline.
"Boom!"
The Purple-Gold Divine Light suddenly extinguished.
He felt a sharp pain in his eyes and instantly closed them.
Blood trickled out from the corners of his eyes.
"Damn it."
Luo Yu, enraged, had just glimpsed something when he was struck by a backlash to his own sight.
What exactly was hidden inside?
He opened his eyes again, wiping the blood from the corner of his eyes with a swipe of his palm.
This minor injury was nothing to him; he recovered within a few breaths.
But what frustrated him was that he had finally discovered a bit of information, only to have it abruptly cut off.
```
Luo Yu glared at the little round pearl.
"Forget it."
"We'll talk about it later."
Luo Yu opened his Storage Space, tossing the little round pearl, pottery jar, and Yellow Soil in together.
He dressed himself and stepped out the door.
He took a deep breath.
"It's time to leave."
He stood on high ground, gazing at the island's jungle and the distant blue sea horizon.
His mood was somewhat relaxed.
Without spending many days here, his strength had leapt qualitatively.
He had obtained the Sea God's Trident, a super divine weapon rare even in the Divine Realm.
His Soul Rings had improved by three hundred thousand years in total.
The lotus seeds from Emperor Flame had hatched into three flames, each with their functions, to be further explored.
Plus the soul bone of the killer whale king and the Deep Sea Devil Whale King.
The inheritance of the Sea God was just one test away, within easy reach, and he could accept it any time.
Not to mention the Purple Pearl, Bossi, and Bai Xiuxiu.
Luo Yu chuckled softly.
"This trip should be considered fruitful, right?"
He closed his eyes, sensing Bossi's location, then leapt forward to hurry over.
...
"What? You're leaving??"
In the elegantly decorated spacious wooden house, everyone gathered, and Bossi looked at Luo Yu in surprise.
Bai Xiuxiu also watched him anxiously.
As for the Seven Pillar Guardians, they seemed somewhat excited.
With Luo Yu here, they were restless, always feeling a suffocating pressure.
Luo Yu's departure was undoubtedly a breath of fresh air for them.
"Yes, it's about time to go, there are still many things to do," Luo Yu said with a smile.
Bossi stared with Beautiful Eyes, "You're not kidding, are you?"
"With your invincible strength, what could be so urgent that you must do it now."
"Isn't the human world at your leisure to come and go as you please?"
The crowd nodded in agreement, quite puzzled.
Luo Yu noticed everyone's gaze and his smile faded, turning solemn.
"Being invincible in the human world doesn't mean much."
He reached up with his hand to point above.
"Above us, there is heaven, and the so-called superior Divine Spirits."
The crowd looked confused, not understanding what Luo Yu was talking about.
"Do you think, the Deep Sea Devil Whale King who has lived for who knows how many years, is already strong enough to ascend to the Divine Realm, yet always falls short of breaking through."
"It's because the Divine Realm doesn't want it to ascend, so it can't ascend."
"It appears mighty, but can only crawl at the feet of the gods."
"Is this what you call invincibility?"
Upon hearing this, everyone trembled, looking at Luo Yu with complicated expressions in their eyes.
They felt as if they had never really understood Luo Yu.
This man's goal was different from theirs; he seemed to never have taken being invincible in the human world to heart.
Was his real goal to be invincible in the Divine Realm?
Sea Horse Douluo opened his mouth, unable to utter a word, eyes filled with disbelief.
Bossi asked Luo Yu seriously:
"What do you want to do? Or rather, what is your ultimate goal?"
Luo Yu stroked his chin, pondering.
He laughed.
"My goal?"
"To put it elegantly,"
"I would have the heavens no longer shroud my sight; I would have the Divine Kings of all heavens unable to go against my will."
"To put it plainly..."
Luo Yu's demeanor took on a bit of a rogue's flair.
"No one is going to strut around over my head, and no one is going to bully the women under my protection."
"This..."
The room fell into silence.
If it were anyone else saying these words, they'd think them naïve, an old man seeking his own demise.
But when Luo Yu said them, they believed.
Because this man, even if he did not have such strength now, truly had the potential.
Sea Dragon Douluo murmured, "So this is that man's goal."
At that moment, Sea Horse Douluo felt as insignificant as an ant.
Looking at Luo Yu's Banished Immortal-like visage.
He sincerely sighed from within.
A great man, indeed, should be like this.
