With his knowledge, although he couldn't be a hundred percent certain whether that Energy Fluctuation was what he was pursuing, he could generally judge that even if it wasn't, it definitely held immeasurable significance.
"You've already taken all the wizard's books; I think we should consider this settled!" Latis's expression remained calm and unyielding. This young man was too peculiar; he simply couldn't see through him.
He had initially wanted to try again, after all, the glory of thousands of years could not be easily tarnished. However, a faint sense of fear began to creep into his heart, making him feel that it was better to avoid trouble; his own life and future were the most important.
He still hadn't lived enough!
Moreover, after settling this matter, they could still trade. After all, where there are people, there are interests, and where there are interests, there can be transactions.
‘God, why do you think his attitude has changed so quickly? Does he have some plan?’
‘Ah! God doesn’t know; perhaps this loquacious old man is about to die!’
‘About to die?’
‘Yes, more than half of the cells in his body have already begun to decay. God thinks he can live for another three years!’
Another three years?
Ye Kai revealed a strange smile as he conversed with God. If he wasn't mistaken, he could still make a deal with this old man!
Although he wasn't particularly afraid of the fleet several dozen miles away, it would be nice to avoid trouble if possible!
"You must have noticed your physical condition. Don't you feel that your Mental Power is becoming increasingly inadequate every time you meditate? It seems like there are signs of regression?"
Ye Kai slowly said, "This Life Pearl in my hand can indeed increase your vitality without leaving any side effects. However, for the next four years, you should refrain from using spells casually."
Latis's body instantly stiffened.
Similarly, nearly all the wizards who heard this sentence were also petrified in an instant.
"Heh heh, you don't need to deny it. Your vitality is rapidly depleting. Even if you use countless treasures to recover, that Speed must be making you feel desperate by now?"
"The regression of Mental Power is something that, if you want to recover, will take you a hundred times longer than normal cultivation. Although you have a special method to condense Mental Power into a mass, with the erosion of time and your innate talent, it will take at least twenty to thirty years to transcend the shackles of life and death."
"Given your current physical condition, hoping for another breakthrough seems bleak. Heh, I won't discourage you too much; if luck is on your side, with your current state, you might still have a chance to live for three more years."
Latis's face turned extremely pale; he knew all too well what these words meant.
The reason wizards held such a high status was precisely because the cultivation of Mental Power was exceptionally difficult, and recovering from its regression was nearly impossible.
He was already far from breaking through his own shackles. If he attempted to reach that realm again, it wouldn't just take twenty or thirty years; it would require a stroke of good fortune. If luck were not on his side, he might spend his entire life as an eighth-level wizard.
"What do you mean by that?"
"Heh, it’s nothing much. I just happen to have some Life Pearls. You know how it is—when you have too many of something, it becomes a burden. I have no place to store them, and they are tasteless to eat but too precious to discard!"
"A burden from having too many?!"
"Tasteless but too precious to throw away?!"
Latis felt as if he had been struck by lightning; his eyes widened in disbelief. "How is that possible? You're lying to me!" Even with his status, he couldn't guarantee that he would obtain a single item that could enhance his vitality each year.
This was simply outrageous!
Ye Kai's expression darkened as he mockingly retorted, "Just a mere mortal like you thinks I would bother to lie?"
Latis froze, unable to move an inch. Ye Kai's words filled him with countless doubts, but the temptation of living longer and gaining greater power was too strong for him to resist. He quickly softened his stance and said, "I’m sorry; I was just too shocked. Do you really have that many Life Pearls?"
Ye Kai raised his index finger and shook it dismissively, snorting coldly. "They're just ordinary pearls that increase vitality. What I can offer goes beyond merely granting you longevity; it's about completely transforming you into one of the most powerful wizards. In fact, I could restore your youth right now, but what do you have that’s worth my investment?"
Latis swallowed hard. "What do I need to do for your help?"
Ye Kai's gaze turned icy as he spoke each word deliberately: "Become my servant!"
"Impossible!"
Latis's pupils suddenly constricted, and his expression changed dramatically as he shouted, "You are too arrogant to think you can make an Eighth-Level Archmage your servant. It's truly laughable!!!"
Ye Kai sat quietly within Hope's Main Bridge, yet an unparalleled aura of pressure emanated from him, forcefully pressing down on the academy above. A hint of mockery flashed in his eyes as he coldly replied, "If it weren't for the fact that I see you have nurtured so many outstanding juniors for humanity, do you think you would qualify to be my servant? Even so, with your current strength, you barely have the qualifications to be a servant!"
Latis was stunned into silence, not only shaken by Ye Kai's words but also trembling under the genuine, colorless aura of authority that pressed down on him.
Yet he showed no signs of anger because the unmasked mockery and condescension in Ye Kai's eyes were not feigned; they felt entirely natural, as if it were a matter of course that he was unworthy of being Ye Kai's servant.
What is going on?!
Who is this person? Is he just a delusional madman? But if he were mad, how could he see through my issues at a glance and possess so many Life Pearls?
I have contacted several Wizard Academies and searched across three continents without finding many treasures that can enhance vitality.
Ye Kai's calm voice broke through his thoughts: "Do you feel it's unfair to be my servant?"
Isn't that obvious? Of course it's unfair!
Almost everyone who heard this couldn't help but curse inwardly. But suddenly, they saw a flash in Ye Kai's mocking eyes as a pure golden light burst forth.
In that instant, nearly everyone was startled into widening their eyes; a sense of authority even more terrifying than before descended upon them.
The moment that authority appeared, everyone felt a shiver directly from the depths of their souls, as if they were instinctively trembling in awe and fear of a 'deity'!
Bang!
Almost everyone could no longer stand firm; their legs buckled and they knelt on the stone floor, drenched in cold sweat. The pressure on their souls made them too afraid to lift their heads!
"What is happening? What is going on? How could a 'deity' appear here?!"
Latis was completely bewildered, not just confused but also afraid, a deep sense of terror enveloping him.
The disdain and pressure from the soul felt as if, with just a slight shift in the other person's thoughts, he would instantly be reduced to nothingness.
It was like standing before a Ninth-Level Wizard, who could extinguish an ordinary person with just a flick of their finger.
"I will give you one more minute."
One minute?
Nodding, perhaps this was the moment to finally break free from the curse of life and death!
To refuse might lead to… no, he would surely regret it for the rest of his life!
Should he agree or not?
Would he walk the final path of his life while holding onto his dignity?
Or should he let everything go and become the other’s servant?
A servant of the divine, eternally bound to something, along with countless others' admiration and dignity—what truly resonated with his heart?
