Nine Revolutions Star Transformation

"Exactly, that’s your big brother. He will lead you to conquer the world you have never seen before, allowing your Illusion Art to fully manifest," Sword Spirit said with a smile.

"Is he really that powerful? Why do I feel like he is different from us?" The little boy asked Chu Linfeng with a puzzled look.

"He is the most extraordinary genius in the world, naturally different from us. You will understand in time. Don’t worry, he is a trustworthy person, willing to risk his life to protect any of us if we are in danger," Sword Spirit replied.

Chu Lin approached the little boy and said, "Do you still have reservations about me? Back then, your third sister was just as afraid, worried I might have intentions towards her, but now you can ask her if she’s still afraid."

The boy remained silent for a moment before saying, "Alright! I trust you! From today, you are my big brother, and I will follow you into that colorful world you speak of."

"Very well, what’s your name? Now that we are a family, you can reveal your true form, right? I am ready to take you away from here," Chu Lin said.

"I don’t have a name. Why don’t you give me one, big brother?" the little boy said with a joyful smile.

"Then let’s call you Chu Tong. We’ll call you Tong’er from now on. By the way, how powerful is your Illusion Art? Would you mind showing it to your big brother?" Chu Linfeng asked.

"I think it’s better not to. Performing this Illusion Art demands a lot of Heart Power, and it would be troublesome if you all fell into an Illusion Realm. I don’t want to see everyone looking so awkward. Tong’er’s Illusion Art is only used against our enemies who want to harm us. You won’t be mad, right, big brother?" Chu Tong asked softly, sneaking a glance at Chu Linfeng’s expression.

"Why would I be mad? Hearing you speak like this, I already know your Illusion Art is formidable. You can show me later when there’s a chance. For now, return to your true form so I can take you away. As you are now, appearing before others would attract the attention of some very powerful experts.

They could erase your memory and make you their killing tool. Your third and second sisters usually don’t appear for this very reason," Chu Linfeng said.

"Alright, I’ll revert to my true form now and still communicate with you that way. I’m so happy to have met you, big brother, and my two sisters!" Chu Tong said with a smile, and a gentle white light enveloped him, revealing a faintly visible pearl floating in mid-air.

Chu Linfeng knew this was Illusory Child’s true form, the Illusion Pearl, an Innate Spiritual Treasure like Chu Qing’s. "Tong’er, join your third sister inside the Storage Ring. You can talk inside while I check for other treasures in this Nether Secret Realm so we can take them with us."

"Big brother, if you want to find something, just ask me. I’m more familiar with this place than anyone. Although it’s short on treasures, there are a few mystical herbs that may be useful to you. How about I get them for you?" Illusory Child quickly suggested.

"Sure! We’ll wait here for you. I’m eager to see what surprises Tong’er can bring me," Chu Linfeng said with a smile, feeling more delighted than if he had battled with a beloved woman.

Illusory Child then left, leaving Chu Linfeng and the others. "Big brother, with Chu Tong now, I won’t feel lonely anymore. Qing’er is so happy!"

"Glad to hear it. But you mustn’t bully him, alright? You’re the older sister. You must take care of and cherish him," Chu Linfeng said with a smile.

"Lin Feng, now that we have Illusory Child, you have an additional safeguard in the Netherworld. With Qing’er and Tong’er’s abilities, you could even escape from a master of the Fifth Layer of the Venerable Martial Realm. Coming to the Ghost Race was indeed the right choice. If the Lord of Netherworld hadn’t deliberately tested you, this fortuitous encounter might not have happened," Sword Spirit said.

"I understand his intentions. He initially didn’t think much of me, reluctantly agreeing to a challenge only because of Yiyi, but seeing me seriously injure his Grand Elder forced him to see me differently. He realized that my strength could greatly benefit the Ghost Race and now wants to ally with me.

However, he doesn’t fully trust me yet. He must have visited this Ghost Secret Realm countless times. Although he didn’t know about Chu Tong, he knew there was an Illusion Realm and that some treasures were likely here.

If I can obtain and present to him treasures from this place, his wariness towards me would lessen significantly, possibly allowing me to truly work for the Ghost Race. Currently, the Five Great Races seem peaceful on the surface.

But if one power suddenly rises, it would surely disrupt this calm, potentially leading to another great battle among the Five Great Races," Chu Linfeng said seriously.

At this moment, Illusory Child returned, with three misty grasses in his hands, and came to Chu Linfeng, "Big brother, this is the most valuable thing here. Don’t underestimate them. These grasses are typically unattainable for an ordinary person because they can cause illusions, making them invisible or imperceptible, but naturally, they pose no problem for me."

"Lin Feng, this is a treasure! I never thought an Illusory Immortal Grass would appear here. Even in the Immortal Realm, it’s extremely rare. You must preserve it well as it will be very useful in the future, especially beneficial to the Purple Demon Thunder Fox," Li said excitedly.

"Thank you, Tong’er! These grasses are quite remarkable! I never expected such a pleasant surprise right after meeting you!" Chu Linfeng said as he placed the Illusory Immortal Grass into his Storage Ring.

"No need to thank me, big brother. It’s what I should do; after all, I’m your little brother!" Chu Tong said with a smile.

Subsequently, Chu Qing and Chu Tong entered the Storage Ring, and Sword Spirit returned to Chu Linfeng’s body. The Ghost Secret Realm transformed, no longer shrouded in mist but instead becoming a small, independent meadow of a few hundred meters, dotted with pale red grasses and some blooming little flowers, exceptionally beautiful.

Seeing this change didn’t surprise Chu Linfeng. He knew it resulted from the absence of Chu Tong and the Illusory Immortal Grass, revealing the Ghost Secret Realm’s true appearance. However, he felt his Chaotic Dragon Power depleting and planned to recover before leaving promptly.

The next day, Chu Linfeng left. As he walked through the City Lord’s Mansion, people avoided him, no longer looking down on him as before. The Lord of Netherworld seemed particularly surprised to see him.

"Lin Feng, how did you come out so quickly? Have you found any treasures?" the Lord of Netherworld asked.

"Indeed, the Ghost Secret Realm has returned to its original state. Here is what I obtained inside. Take a look," Chu Linfeng said, retrieving an Illusory Immortal Grass from his Storage Ring...
