Chapter 10

After entering the stone chamber, Huang Yu let go of Zhao Wan'er's hand: "Auntie, if you like anything, just take it. I'll see if there are any spirit stones."

Zhao Wan'er nodded gently upon hearing this. Since they had already entered, she no longer refused.

Women are naturally attracted to shiny jewelry and ornaments. With so many pieces of jewelry inside, Zhao Wan'er, being a woman, was naturally drawn to them.

However, Huang Yu was not very interested in these things. After all, everything here now belonged to him, so there was nothing much to look at. What he needed to find was spirit stones. If he could find spirit stones, he could enhance his cultivation. In this world, only great strength could provide security; without strength, one could not survive.

After searching around, Huang Yu discovered a hidden compartment behind an ancient painting on the wall. Surprised, Huang Yu opened the compartment, revealing a wooden box inside. The box was adorned with ancient patterns, clearly indicating that it was not an ordinary object.

"I hope it doesn't disappoint me." After wiping off the dust, Huang Yu slowly opened the box, revealing a thin, yellowed ancient book.

The Golden Ancient Eye Technique.

"Congratulations, player has obtained a lower-grade Heavenly Secret Technique, the Golden Ancient Eye Technique."

A Heavenly Secret Technique, actually a Heavenly Secret Technique. This was a major find. He never expected that the small Huang family would have such a profound secret. Generally, Heavenly Secret Techniques were only found in ancient families, ancient sects, and ancient great nations. He never thought the Huang family would have a Heavenly Secret Technique.

No wonder the small Huang family had accumulated so much wealth. With the Heavenly Secret Technique, the Golden Ancient Eye Technique, gambling on stones was a piece of cake.

However, the Golden Ancient Eye Technique was not easy to cultivate. Moreover, the Huang family only had this technique and lacked high-level cultivation methods, so their cultivation could not advance, making it impossible to achieve even a minor level of mastery. Everything had its destiny.

But he was different. Although he did not have a profound cultivation method now, he would have one in the future.

"Congratulations, player, do you want to learn the Golden Ancient Eye Technique?"

Learn it, of course, he wanted to learn it. Huang Yu had been eagerly waiting for this.

"Congratulations, player has learned the Golden Ancient Eye Technique."

"Congratulations, due to the player's mastery of the detection technique, the proficiency of the Golden Ancient Eye Technique has increased, reaching the minor level of mastery."

Huang Yu was overjoyed upon hearing this. It was a great surprise. It was not easy to reach the minor level of mastery with the Golden Ancient Eye Technique. The technique had ten levels, and reaching the third level was considered the minor level of mastery. This meant he had already reached the third level.

"Xiao Yu, are you okay?" Seeing Huang Yu's change, Zhao Wan'er was very worried and asked anxiously.

"I'm fine, Auntie. I just learned our family's ancestral eye technique," Huang Yu shook his head and said.

"Ancestral eye technique, is this the Golden Ancient Eye Technique? Xiao Yu, you learned the Golden Ancient Eye Technique?" Zhao Wan'er's face lit up with surprise. She was well aware of the Huang family's ancestral eye technique. It was precisely because of this technique that the Huang family had been able to continue to this day. Zhao Wan'er remembered that Huang Yu had tried to learn the Golden Ancient Eye Technique when he was young, but he could never get started. She never thought he would learn it now, which made her extremely happy.

"Yes, I don't know how, but I learned it at a glance," Huang Yu nodded.

"Good, good, good, the ancestors are watching over us, that's great," Zhao Wan'er said repeatedly.

In the treasure chamber, they ultimately did not find any spirit stones, which made Huang Yu a bit disappointed. However, obtaining the Golden Ancient Eye Technique was worth it.

Leaving the treasure chamber, Huang Yu returned to his room.

"Lulu, Lulu, come out quickly."

"Master, what do you want now?" Lulu looked at Yang Lei with obvious displeasure, "Don't you know that lack of sleep can make a person ugly?"

"..."

This was utterly speechless.

"You're a system spirit, why do you always want to sleep?" Huang Yu said helplessly.

"So what if I'm a system spirit? Lulu is a woman, and women love beauty. Lulu loves beauty too," Lulu pouted, clearly unhappy.

"Alright, Lulu, you are already very beautiful. No one in this world is more beautiful than you. Don't be any more beautiful, or all the women in the world will be jealous and ashamed," Huang Yu had to say.

"Really? Master, are you really saying that? Lulu is the most beautiful woman in the world?" Lulu's face turned slightly red, and she covered her face with her hands, looking shy and embarrassed, which made Huang Yu momentarily speechless.

"Yes, really, absolutely true. I was completely captivated just now," Huang Yu quickly replied, regaining his composure.

"Lulu is so happy. Lulu is the prettiest woman," Lulu was overjoyed.

"Unfortunately, you're a bit small," Huang Yu muttered under his breath, looking at the overjoyed Lulu.

"Lulu can grow up, you know," Lulu flew around and finally landed on Huang Yu's shoulder.

"You can hear that even when I speak so softly?" Huang Yu was taken aback.

"Of course, Lulu is the prettiest Lulu," Lulu said with an innocent look, a charming smile on her face, "Does Master want to see Lulu grow up?"

"Cough... cough..." Huang Yu's face turned red. Although he also wanted to see Lulu grow up, he was too embarrassed to say it, so he quickly said, "Lulu, um, we'll talk about this later. I have something to ask you."

"Master, what do you want to ask Lulu?" Lulu blinked her big, cute eyes.

"Lulu, I want to gain more life energy and quickly enhance my cultivation. But since I'm in the Huang family, I can't go out to fight monsters or kill beasts. So, I want to ask if you have a way for me to gain life energy, the more the better," Huang Yu said, looking at Lulu.

"Yes, there are two ways for Master to gain life energy. Besides fighting and killing beasts, you can also gain life energy by completing tasks," Lulu said.

"Completing tasks?" Huang Yu's eyes lit up. This was a good idea. He remembered that in games, completing tasks often yielded more experience points than killing monsters. However, tasks were usually rare, and special hidden tasks were even harder to come by. But now, he was the only player in this world, and everyone else was a monster or an NPC.

"Yes, Master can gain life energy by completing tasks," Lulu nodded again.

"What tasks? What tasks can I take on now? Tell me," Huang Yu was eager and urged her.

"There is only one task."

"One?" Huang Yu was a bit disappointed, but it was better than nothing, "What task is it?"

"Go to the Su family jade shop and win ten pieces of jade with a quality of 7 or higher," Lulu said, "This is a D-level task. The reward is a lower-grade Human cultivation method, 300 experience points, and 500 life energy. Since this is your first task, the reward is very generous. Future tasks won't have such rich rewards. See how good Lulu is to you?"
