I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second

Chapter 1193: Chapter 1193: Enduring Humiliation and Bearing Burdens

Of course, Lin Yi is an exception.

The talent Lin Yi displayed made the Immortal King value him greatly.

He swept away some sinister forces of the All Gods for the Immortal King, which made the Immortal King rely on him even more. For this, the Immortal King specially granted Lin Yi the privilege to freely enter and exit the Immortal King Palace.

The Immortal King Star is a planet shrouded in a white fog.

This planet, like the myths of Xia describe, is ethereal with mist swirling around.

Being in such an elegant environment, one’s mind inexplicably becomes much calmer.

The white fog conceals everything on this planet.

If there is no one specific to lead the way, or if one is not familiar with its structure, those who come here will basically lose their direction.

Within the Immortal King Star, there are many important things.

Apart from precious materials and weapons, there are also many unknown important documents.

These items are in the treasure house and archives of the Immortal King Star, and one needs the Immortal King’s authorization to enter these places.

The Immortal King’s authorization is one layer of security, the security personnel residing on Immortal King Star is another layer of security, and the buildings that constantly change positions on the Immortal King Star form yet another strong security layer.

Whether to set Lin Yi up or to show trust in him, the Immortal King taught Lin Yi to recognize the different buildings of the Immortal King Palace at different times.

Upon first arriving at the Immortal King Star, seeing the white expanse before him, Mr. Gongsu felt somewhat confused.

He couldn’t understand why the ruler of the Three Realms and Six Paths, the Immortal King, lived in such a place, where nothing could be seen except an expanse of whiteness.

Could it be that those high-ranking elites all like this kind of undeveloped and chaotic style?

Just as Mr. Gongsu was planning to ask questions, he happened to encounter the movement of buildings on the Immortal King Star.

The thick white fog parted as the buildings moved.

Magnificent structures stood on pieces of floating land.

The materials used in the construction were not particularly valuable, maintaining a low-key yet luxurious appearance.

The speed of the building’s movement was not fast.

They crisscrossed on the floating land below, changing positions in no discernible pattern. After roughly five minutes, their positions changed, and the white mist once again enveloped the buildings, completely concealing them.

"Let’s go, Mr. Gongsu, take you to meet Lord Immortal King."

The Fu Xi Talisman had once again entered Lin Yi’s carrying space.

Led by Lin Yi, Mr. Gongsu passed through the thick mist and finally reached the most important building on the planet, the Immortal King Palace.

Usually, the Immortal King is not here.

In the palace, it is mostly for meeting important people and discussing important matters.

When there’s nothing much happening, enjoy the scenery, play chess, or meditate in beautiful surroundings to cultivate one’s mind.

Meeting Mr. Gongsu here today is truly giving him special face.

"You haven’t been away from the Upper Plane for long and returned so quickly, even resolving the matter concerning the traitor, coming back so swiftly, is there something important you wish to tell me?"

The intense enthusiasm imagined for Gongshu De did not manifest.

Soon after meeting Lin Yi, the Immortal King kindly greeted him, seemingly ignoring Mr. Gongsu.

Lin Yi slightly smiled and slightly bowed, showing respect to the Immortal King.

"Good things, everyone always hopes they arrive sooner."

Saying that, Lin Yi stepped aside, revealing Gongshu De who was following behind him.

"This here is Gongshu De, previously one of the Seven Heroes of Dark Rising. This old man is not only powerful but also skilled in Enhancement Skill. My equipment was enhanced by him. With his assistance, Lord Immortal King, enhancing your Fu Xi Talisman to +99 Level will surely be no problem."

Dark Rising.

When these two words reached the Immortal King’s ears, it always made him unhappy.

After all, this organization had once shaken his existence.

The folks in the Dark Rising Organization are no easy people, even dreaming of overthrowing the All Gods’ rule over the Three Realms and Six Paths.

However, today is an exception.

In the last encounter with the Dark Rising Organization, Mr. Gongsu was no longer in the Dark Rising’s camp.

At that time, the information the Immortal King received was that Mr. Gongsu was dead, and the act was done by their own side.

Remember when the Immortal King first heard this information, he was cheerfully joking with his own people, saying that he indeed has some skill, not needing to handle the opponent’s high-level members himself, or even arrange it, yet it was directly resolved.

These words seemed like a joke, but actually revealed quite a bit of information.

The Immortal King had long known there were issues within Dark Rising, similar to the conflicts among the various factions of the All Gods.

Why can Gongshu De appear in his Immortal King Palace, and he comes here solemnly to meet Gongshu De, besides Gongshu De’s abilities being important to him, it’s also because the Immortal King is certain that Gongshu De has long been disloyal to the Dark Rising Organization.

Combined with the shared history with Mr. Gongsu previously introduced by Lin Yi, the Immortal King has reason to trust Gongshu De.

After Lin Yi finished introducing himself, Gongshu De immediately stepped forward, bowed to the Immortal King, and cupped his hands in salute.

"Gongshu De, greetings to Lord Immortal King."

Seeing Gongshu De’s attitude, the Immortal King’s heart was very pleased.

Whose spirits wouldn’t lift knowing their power could be painlessly elevated by a significant degree?

His control over his reign could be firmly reinforced once more.

"Gongshu De is indeed a talent. I initially thought you were just an engineer responsible for designing the Dark Rising Organization’s constructions, but I didn’t expect you to also master the art of equipment enhancement. Really underestimated you and the Dark Rising Organization."

The Immortal King’s praise prompted a quick thanks from Gongshu De.

"Lord Immortal King over-praises. Compared to your power, the skill I possess is not worth mentioning."

Gongshu De’s tone revealed no flaws.

However, doubts still lingered in the Immortal King’s heart.

Gongshu De’s initial position was with the Dark Rising Organization. With the ability to enhance equipment, why didn’t Gongshu De showcase it earlier to aid the Dark Rising’s leaders? Not talking about others, at least in these thousands of years, the Seven Heroes of Dark Rising should have been equipped with full +99 gear by Gongshu De.

But after joining Dark Rising for such a long time, rising to its high rank, Gongshu De never demonstrated his capabilities.

"Lord Immortal King, the adage ’A common man is innocent, but treasuring a jade ring puts him at risk’ is something you must know. I am a survivor from Blue Star, as you are aware. The command you gave back then was for no living soul to be spared on Blue Star, not even us Enhancers were to be left alive. The reason I was able to leave the Upper Plane alive is because someone under your command helped me."

"One must know gratitude. Once news spread that I could enhance equipment to high levels, that person who helped me would inevitably be implicated, and I, Gongshu De, could not bring myself to do such a thing."

Such an answer that even the Immortal King couldn’t pick any flaws in.

However, the Immortal King still had one last query.

Knowing who ordered Blue Star’s wipeout, does Gongshu De not harbor any hatred? Can he come here to do things for the Immortal King without dispelling that doubt? The Immortal King certainly cannot completely trust Gongshu De without removing this uncertainty.
