"This is the inventory list."
Bailey offered a heartfelt, fawning smile, handing Andrew Han a sheet of virtual paper with its tiny paws. Its big, glossy black eyes brimmed with longing for happiness.
It had been lonely for far too long...
Ever since following Andrew Han and broadening its horizons, Bailey had developed even more aspirations...
Gulp, gulp. Bailey mimicked a human swallowing nervously, its little head held with a hint of reserve, but its eyes were fixed longingly on Andrew Han.
Smack!
A slap landed on its forehead.
Andrew Han, both exasperated and amused, said, "Look at you, so hopeless."
"Bailey is happy just following Master. What's the use of being accomplished!" Bailey lifted its chin.
Among all the intelligent cores in the starry universe, Bailey considered itself quite outstanding.
Drifting across the endless starry sky for so many years, Bailey had finally chosen a master. It had personally witnessed Andrew Han rise from Fusion Tier to Composite Stellar Palace Tier, becoming the supreme Human Primeval, destined to reach the Eternal Realm of the universe.
The strength of a life race was measured, above all, by its Eternal Realm power.
And the future of a life race depended, more than anything, on its Primevals.
"Hehehe."
Growing happier the more it thought, Bailey rubbed its soft white paws together.
Andrew Han waved with a cheerful smile. "Alright, once we're back in Spark-Heritage, I'll find you a companion. Just stop making mistakes, and you'll save me some worry."
"That's just a database flaw! Actually, I'm amazing—Bailey, master strategist, super-intelligent core!" Bailey protested, raising a paw and brushing Andrew Han's shoulder.
Bailey brushed off the dust, leaving everything clean and spotless.
Bailey was formed from faint energy, essentially a materialized hologram.
"As long as you're happy."
He lightly touched the center of his brow, immersing himself in the Origin Mystic Palace at the heart of his soul-space, and gained a deeper, truer understanding: "This is a world of my own, completely independent, evolving its own space—a product of Stellar Palace energy refined to the utmost. In some ways, it resembles the Sealed Celestial Path’s self-created dry universe."
Yet in truth, the World-Boundary Palace Stage and the Sealed Celestial Path are fundamentally different.
Cultivating life through the Sealed Celestial Path, once reaching the Fusion Realm, allows one to condense celestial bodies at their side! Upon reaching the Eternal Realm, one can collect and carry celestial bodies, as if bearing a universe’s star upon themselves.
At that level, wonders abound, encompassing infinite mysteries.
Andrew Han mused silently: "The Eternal Realm martial giants are all Sealed Celestial Path users... Even Master Ning Mo Li is one, and already at the Void Rift Tier."
"And then there’s little Lucy."
"That unique physique is both a blessing and a curse."
Thinking about the Sun-Calling Star-Binder Physique’s peculiarities, Andrew Han felt a trace of melancholy.
He feared Lucy might never reach the Starlight Tier.
Such are the limitations of that physique—it has nothing to do with innate talent.
