Chapter 1068 Settlement, Astronomical Figures

After a burst of dazzling white light disappeared, Lu Li returned to his room.

[No obvious injuries detected on the Pioneer's body. Proceed to settlement?]

When Lu Li saw the furnishings in his room again, he felt as if he had been in another world, because whether from the perspective of space and subjective time, or from his personal sense of time, he had really been away for a long time.

Before entering the Dragon Ball world, he was considered a young man by ordinary human standards, but this journey turned him into an old man over eight thousand years old.

Lu Li didn't rush to settle the bill. Instead, he went to the refrigerator, took out a bottle of chilled sweet cola, and took a big gulp. More than a thousand years ago, he had already finished the bento box that the shrimp had brought him, and he had also finished the drink.

Having not tasted ice-cold, sweet cola for a long time, the refreshing coolness made Lu Li exhale with a soft "ah" as he finished drinking it.

"Meow~"

After Ah Huo was released by Lu Li, he saw Lu Li's Coke and was rubbing against it, clearly wanting to join the army of people who wanted to enjoy drinking it.

Lu Li took out another large bucket and poured it into Ah Huo's water dispenser. Ah Huo then ran over and licked it with his tongue.

"By the way, Ah Huo, what kind of creature are you anyway?"

Looking at Ah Huo, who was lying on the ground drinking cola with his big butt sticking out, Lu Li couldn't help but ask a question out of curiosity.

Ah Huo now looks like a cat bigger than a brown bear, somewhat like a blue and white British Shorthair cat that you might see in real life, but he's not only too big, but he also has a red crescent moon on his white belly.

Lu Li's current realm is extraordinary, but he still can't figure out what kind of creature Ah Huo is. He has seen Ah Huo's origin and thinks it is very complex and has unstable and changeable characteristics.

"Meow."

Ah Huo was too busy drinking cola to understand anything, so he just wiggled his butt and mumbled a few words, indicating that he didn't know either.

Lu Li was helpless, but although Ah Huo had turned into a strange form again, its strength had improved.

Over the years, Ah-Huo has consumed many Zamasu and even devoured Frieza, gaining the talent to remove Frieza's limiter. As a result, after training in the subspace, his strength has increased by leaps and bounds, and his overall attributes have even surpassed Aizen's, reaching 280 points.

As a peak eighth-tier pet beast, Ah Huo's formidable talent makes him a formidable force in the eighth tier. Aizen marveled at Ah Huo's progress and delved into the principles behind Ah Huo's growth.

Recently, Sosuke also said that perhaps he could artificially improve his own improvement speed, which is equivalent to artificially removing the limiter, and perhaps in this way he could gradually catch up.

After settling Ah Huo in, Lu Li walked to the sofa in the living room and relaxed down to sit.

"Settlement."

Based on the Pioneer's overall performance rating, six of the following nine rewards can be selected:

A. Grand Priest-level Random Treasure Chest (Compensation for all High Priests and the Omni-King) B. Destiny Stone. Chaos (Extremely Rare)
C. Chaotic-level Random Item Chest

D. Chaos-level Random Equipment Chest

F. 200 billion End Coins
G. Special Title: Unrivaled Through the Ages
H. Chaotic-level Random Bloodline Treasure Chest

I. The Book of Talent Advancement - Final Chapter (Extremely Rare)
After reviewing the rewards, Lu Li thought to himself, "As expected of a ninth-tier world, the rewards after I cleared it are indeed generous."

The mere mention of the End Coin made him reminisce about the days when he risked his life for a few thousand or tens of thousands of End Coins, while now settlements were made in units of hundreds of millions.

However, Lu Li was not blinded by this enormous wealth, because since the last world, the End Coins he needed to strengthen his bloodline had also been calculated in units of hundreds of millions. This amount of money seemed like a lot, but he could squander it just as quickly.

After all, he was an old pioneer who was over eight thousand years old. Lu Li was quite familiar with choosing rewards and quickly sorted out his thoughts, eliminating the three unnecessary options.

Those are the three Chaos-level treasure chests. Opening treasure chests is largely a matter of luck, and he doesn't really need any more treasure chests to use as bait right now. He got quite a few treasure chests from farming Zamasu before.

Speaking of Zamasu, before leaving the Dragon Ball world, Lu Li gave Zamasu a quick death because he felt that Zamasu had made enough contributions to protecting the world, which could be considered as atonement for some of his sins, and he could be released.

After finalizing the reward, Lu Li checked the remaining six items, and the money was instantly credited to his account.

"In the end, I will make the Dragon Balls my home world, please help me put them away."

Lu Li didn't say much goodbye before leaving this time, mainly because he would be going back. The Dragon Ball world was the first ninth-tier world he had conquered, and this world was rich in resources. Both martial artists and technology had considerable potential, and it could produce some of the resources he needed in the future.

To give a simple example, he could use the Super Dragon to produce a Legendary Super bloodline for him, and then take it to the space to sell.

Although doing so might seem like a double standard, he didn't use the power of the Dragon Balls to do anything that would affect the balance of the Dragon Ball world, so Lu Li felt it was fine.

Furthermore, Lu Li didn't forbid Goku and the others from using the Dragon Balls; he just said not to overuse them or rely too much on their power as a backup, as that would cause them to lose the tension in battle, and in the long run, it could lead to serious trouble.

[Dear Pioneer No. 008, your request has been received. The End Space will begin serving you immediately. Please check back in 23 hours, 38 minutes, and 23 seconds of space time.]

Lu Li immediately heard the reply from the End Space, and to his surprise, the voice of the End Space, which was originally a cold and emotionless mechanical female voice, had now become a sweet female voice with a high degree of anthropomorphism.

"Is the link between ability and treatment so obvious...? It's too realistic."

Lu Li muttered a complaint, thinking to himself that he hadn't expected the End Space to treat people differently in such details. He figured that even the space's notification sounds were more pleasant for ninth-tier explorers than for other explorers.

However, this doesn't seem to be very useful. After all, if it's a warning sound about annihilation, saying it to you in a sweet voice would feel even more terrifying.

After summarizing the rewards, Lu Li began to check the new title he had obtained.

[Special Title: Unrivaled Through the Ages]

Title Rating: SSS+
Origin of the title: Pioneer 008 fought for the sake of all beings in the Dragon Ball world, resisting the tyranny of the Grand Priest and Zeno. In the end, he fought across the river of time, slaying enemies from the past, present, and future, and stood alone through the ages, restoring order to the river of time. He was hailed as a Martial Saint by all living beings, and thus obtained this title.

Title Effect 1: Pioneers have a natural resistance to the laws of time. Unless the enemy's overall attributes exceed the Pioneer's by more than 10 points, when fighting an enemy, the enemy locked by the Pioneer will be unable to use time-related laws, whether the law applies to the enemy or to the Pioneer.

Title Effect 2: Pioneers possess an exceptionally high tolerance for causality; any damage inflicted by causality on a Pioneer will be reduced by 90%.
Title Effect 3: If the power of faith is gathering towards the Pioneer, the Pioneer will gain an adaptive independent damage amplification of 1% to 99% depending on the amount of the power of faith.

Before starting in certain native worlds, pioneers may be able to obtain a special issuing identity based on this title.

Title Evaluation: Challenging the pinnacle of martial arts, wielding a sword to cleave through eternity.

Lu Li carefully examined the new title. It was a new title with a rather unique function. In terms of title level, it was the highest among all his current titles, and perhaps the highest level in the space's title rating system.

Anyway, the highest level range of space titles that Lu Li had seen before was SSS+, and he didn't know if there were any differences in quality between SSS+ titles.

He earned this title mainly because of the nature of time in the Dragon Ball world. Although he defeated the Grand Priest and his allegiance to the ages only lasted for a little over two years in terms of spatial scale, because the future exists in the main river of time, his deeds were actually circulated in the universe long after he accomplished this.

As a result, he accumulated an enormous reputation in the Dragon Ball world, and he and Aizen were able to complete team missions that they hadn't paid much attention to before because of this.

The title of "Unrivaled Through the Ages" isn't entirely useless in close encounters, but it's unlikely to be effective in most situations, unless the enemy happens to rely on the Law of Time. Otherwise, this title is essentially worthless.

However, in the broader context of conquering the world, this title is actually quite meaningful. It means that Lu Li can be unafraid of the sanctions of great causal forces in certain worlds and engage in time-based battles with certain powerful beings. In short, there are many wonderful uses waiting for Lu Li to explore.

After looking at the titles, Lu Li turned his attention to the Book of Talent Advancement: Final Chapter. This item was special; it was not an ordinary Book of Talent Advancement.

Previously, he improved his talent in the original world without relying on the normal mission process, and awakened his martial arts furnace, thus saving a talent advancement book.

However, Lu Li later discovered that he could no longer use this talent advancement book, because the End Space told him that ordinary talent advancement books could usually only be used on talents that had never been advanced through this method.

Moreover, the level of this talent cannot exceed SSS- level, so Lu Li's talent advancement book is essentially unusable, since his awakened third talent, Primal Instinct, is directly an SSS-level talent.

This caused Lu Li's original plan to use the Book of Talent Advancement to his third talent to be abandoned. Fortunately, the space also detected his awkward situation and indicated that because he had ninth-level authority, he could transfer the Book of Talent Advancement to members of the team.

He is not yet at the ninth rank, but the privileges of a Pioneer are increased by one by default. That is to say, the privileges of an eighth-rank Pioneer are the same as those of a ninth-rank Explorer in the space. When he really reaches the ninth rank, he will also have some minor privileges that only Pioneers have.

Afterwards, Lu Li planned to give his unusable talent advancement book to Aizen. Sousuke still had talents that could be used, so it wouldn't be a waste.

This "Talent Advancement Book - Final Chapter" can be used on talents that have been advanced once, or on talents of SSS level and above.

Lu Li thought about it and felt that his comprehension was not bad. Although the Martial Arts Furnace still had the drawback of consuming lifespan for deduction, he had the Primordial Spirit Seed to offset it, so he was not in a hurry to upgrade it.

Moreover, his primal instincts are already strong enough, and he's not in a hurry to upgrade his newly awakened talent. It would be more cost-effective to use this item on removing the limiter.
