"I can read minds, but I can't see what you're thinking. So you can read minds too, because only in this way can I not see what you're thinking."
Bimen continued talking to himself, making Yi Shuihan understand why he asked him if he could read minds.
"I don't... I can read minds."
He was about to say no, but Yi Shuihan suddenly realized that if he wanted to, it would be easy for him to know what someone with much lower strength was thinking; one could even say he had mind-reading abilities.
Are there many people among your Namekians who can read minds?
"Not many, only about one in three can learn mind reading! I'm a little genius."
"I'm a little proud," Bim said.
One out of three, isn't that enough?!
Yi Shuihan couldn't understand what Bi Men was thinking at all.
After chatting with Beemon for a while, Yi Shuihan had a pretty good grasp of the current situation on Namek. He learned that there are currently 6 tribes on Namek, and each tribe has an elder who is responsible for guarding the Dragon Balls and leading everyone's lives.
The Grand Elder was kept alone in a secluded place, closely protected by Nail, the strongest Namekian fighter. Now, the Grand Elder rarely appeared in front of everyone because he was too old, so old that even moving around was difficult.
According to Bimen, if Yi Shuihan wants the Dragon Ball, he must get the Grand Elder's permission first; otherwise, even if he gets the Dragon Ball, he will not be able to make a wish.
Yi Shuihan was somewhat surprised by this, because when he communicated with Beemon, he used Namekian, which meant that summoning the Namekian Dragon Balls and making a wish were not a problem. However, Beemon still said that he could not make a wish without the Grand Elder's approval.
Either Beemon is lying, or the Grand Elder really does have that kind of control over the Dragon Balls, and the latter is obviously more likely.
After all, the Dragon Balls were created by the Grand Elder. Although he couldn't interfere too much, he could still exert some influence, such as reviving the Dragon Balls from their recovery period ahead of time. This was reflected in the original work, where the Earth's Kami once spared the Earth's Dragon Balls a year of slumber, allowing them to be used again.
This saves time, which naturally allows the Dragon Balls, which are in the revival period, to fall asleep, thus meeting the condition that they cannot be used to make a wish.
"Then take me to see the Grand Elder! I believe he will agree to let me use the Dragon Balls."
Chapter 909, Helping My Wives Enhance Their Potential
Help my wives enhance their potential
Bimen was not qualified to take Yi Shuihan to see the Grand Elder, so he took Yi Shuihan to the elders of their tribe and explained Yi Shuihan's purpose.
"You can leave now! The Dragon Balls are not lent to outsiders."
Lucky, the elder of the Bimon tribe, is a middle-aged Namekian who is a combat type. His strength is about the same as Luo Mo's, and with his various Namekian abilities, he would most likely win if he fought Luo Mo.
Lucky's attitude towards Yi Shuihan was not very good, mainly because he believed that even the Namekians didn't use something as sacred as the Dragon Balls, so how could outsiders use it?
Yi Shuihan frowned slightly. He hadn't expected the elder to refuse him so directly. However, his frown soon relaxed. It wasn't the elder who decided whether he could use the Dragon Ball, but the Grand Elder.
"I want to see the Grand Elder. If the Grand Elder also won't let me use the Dragon Balls, I won't force myself."
"How dare you! The Grand Elder is not someone you can just see whenever you want. I've already told you, you should forget about the Dragon Balls and leave our planet immediately, or I'll kick you out."
Lachi said coldly to Yi Shuihan.
"It seems I need to demonstrate some strength first, otherwise I won't even be able to see the Grand Elder. Or rather, I should have gone directly to the Grand Elder from the beginning."
The moment the thought crossed his mind, he saw Lucky's expression suddenly change, as if he were talking to someone. In the end, he became respectful and kept nodding.
"Alright, come with me! The Grand Elder wants to see you."
Lach said this somewhat reluctantly.
"Did they foresee my arrival again?!"
Yi Shuihan was not surprised by this, as the Namekian elder had demonstrated a similar ability in the original story.
With Lachi leading the way, the journey was smooth and they arrived at the location of the Grand Elder in a very short time. The Grand Elder's residence was a small castle located in the center of the six major tribes, with the distance to each tribe being roughly the same, which was naturally intentional.
"Nairu, how is the Grand Elder doing lately?"
In front of Naru, the strongest man on Namek, Lucky also put aside his elder's airs and asked very politely. Of course, his concern for the Grand Elder was genuine. In fact, all the other Namekians on Namek were the Grand Elder's children. Last time, an unknown change occurred on Namek, and only the Grand Elder survived. In order to continue the race, he gave birth to the current Namekians.
Therefore, each Namekian is essentially a race in itself. Even if one Namekian doesn't die, a new race can be created in a short time.
"The Grand Elder's condition is currently stable, but he should not get too emotional. I already know why you've come. Just let me take him in."
Neru said coolly, and like Lachi, he didn't look at Yi Shuihan with a friendly gaze. If it weren't for the Grand Elder's request, he wouldn't want anyone to disturb the Grand Elder's rest.
"I'm warning you, you'd better behave yourself when you see the Grand Elder later, or I'll show you that we Namekians are not to be trifled with."
Neru said fiercely to Yi Shuihan.
Yi Shuihan didn't react to Nei Lu's attitude and simply ignored him, which made Nei Lu clench his fists, feeling an urge to hit someone.
"Neru, bring the guests in!"
An aged voice echoed in his heart, and Yi Shuihan instantly understood that it was the voice of the Great Elder.
"Yes!"
Neru's expression became extremely respectful, and he gestured for Yi Shuihan to follow.
Upon entering the castle, we finally met the Grand Elder. He looked very old, sitting in a chair with a face full of wrinkles and almost all his teeth missing. He looked like a frail old man who might pass away at any moment.
The elder's eyes, however, were completely different from his body. They were not cloudy like those of an old man; instead, they were exceptionally bright, revealing a wisdom that had seen through the vicissitudes of life.
Upon seeing Yi Shuihan, the Grand Elder revealed a kind smile and spoke in a slightly hoarse voice.
"O powerful being from afar, I now know your purpose. I can agree to lend you the Dragon Balls, but can you tell me..."
"How did you know we have Dragon Balls here?"
The reason for asking this question is that too many people know about the Dragon Balls, which will put Namek in danger. After all, the Dragon Balls are so attractive, supposedly able to grant any wish. If people find out about this, very few will be able to resist the temptation.
If too many people know about the Dragon Balls, the Grand Elder will consider using them to wish for Namek to be moved to a safer place.
"I learned about it from Earth, because there is also a Namekian on Earth who can create Dragon Balls. However, the Dragon Balls he creates can only grant one wish, and his power is limited. The power of the dragon he summons is not strong enough, so I came here."
As Yi Shuihan spoke, he released the image of the gods and briefly explained how he separated his own evil.
Yi Shuihan wasn't lying; he did indeed learn about Namek from the gods, but not from their words, but from television.
Of course, the Grand Elder couldn't tell whether Yi Shuihan was telling the truth or not; to use the language of this world, the difference between the two was simply too great.
"I didn't expect there were still clansmen who had fallen into exile. I remember him. He was a very talented clansman. No wonder he was able to create the Dragon Balls. However, he made a mistake by sharing his evil thoughts."
The Grand Elder looked quite emotional, seemingly relieved by the matter of the Heavenly God.
"I've heard that you, Elder, can help people develop their potential. I wonder if you could help my wives develop their potential as well? I know that developing potential is a great burden for you, so I can help you extend your lifespan and restore your youthful body."
Yi Shuihan suddenly spoke to the Grand Elder.
"Elder, don't agree to his request. Your body won't be able to handle it."
Neru didn't believe Yi Shuihan's words and felt inexplicably angry about the wives Yi Shuihan mentioned.
“Naru, I know my own body, I’m fine. I can help you, powerful one from afar, but I don’t need to extend your lifespan. Everyone dies eventually, and death is not a scary thing for me. I just hope you can help me when Namek faces a great crisis.”
The Grand Elder's ideological awareness was quite high; Yi Shuihan could tell that he was truly unafraid of death.
"Sure! Don't worry, as long as I'm still in this world, Namek won't be destroyed."
Of course, if Yi Shuihan were to leave this world, this promise would naturally become invalid.
Chapter 910, Divine Dragon Porunga
Dragon Borunga
"Where are your wives? I can have someone bring them over."
The Grand Elder inquired.
"No need to trouble them, they'll be here soon."
While talking with the Grand Elder, Yi Shuihan had already diverted his attention to his personal world to tell the beauties about what the Grand Elder was doing. They all showed great interest in the matter of developing potential.
A large door appeared beside Yi Shuihan, and then one by one, beautiful women emerged from it: Aphrodite, Robin, Tsunade, Cai Yan…
They were all dressed in different styles of clothing, showcasing various styles of beauty. Coming out of the door was like walking a fashion show.
Normally, Yi Shuihan would let outsiders see this scene; he's a bit stingy in this regard. But this is Namek, so it's different. People here reproduce asexually, and their aesthetic views are different.
Not to mention the Grand Elder's pure and innocent gaze, even Neru remained unmoved when he saw Cai Yan and the others. He only showed some dissatisfaction with Yi Shuihan's expression, because so many people meant that the Grand Elder would be more exhausted.
"Which of you comes first?"
"My lord, may I try it first?"
Diao Chan spoke in a lively manner, and the others remained silent after she spoke, which was taken as tacit agreement.
At this point, Yi Shuihan naturally had no objections, so the Grand Elder placed one hand on Diao Chan's head and began to exert his power.
Diao Chan didn't really enjoy cultivation. Even with Yi Shuihan's help, she was only at Silver 3-star at the moment. Of course, this level of strength was already considered heaven-defying on Namek, and she could easily defeat the entire Namekian.
After the Grand Elder unleashed his power, Diao Chan's aura rapidly intensified, doubling in strength in a short period of time.
"You've broken through to 4 stars? That saved me a lot of trouble!"
The Grand Elder had removed his hand from Diao Chan's head, and Diao Chan, feeling her own progress, smiled broadly, overjoyed.
Seeing the obvious effect, the others were eager to try it themselves. Yi Shuihan saw that the Grand Elder was panting heavily, so he channeled a stream of immortal energy into him, and the Grand Elder instantly became energetic again.
Feeling the power constantly nourishing his body, the Grand Elder looked at Yi Shuihan with great surprise. He could sense that the immortal power was of a higher level than ordinary qi.
After each time the Grand Elder finished developing his potential, Yi Shuihan would infuse him with a stream of immortal power. When the last one finished developing his potential, the Grand Elder was not only not tired, but his energy and spirit were even better than before. His face was rosy and he looked like he had been given a second spring.
Yi Shuihan's immortal power was close to that of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, possessing all sorts of incredible effects. It was even more precious than the thousand-year-old dragon blood. Even though most of it was used to restore the Great Elder's spirit and physical strength, the remainder made the Great Elder's body at least 10 years younger.
In this way, the Grand Elder not only damaged his body by developing his potential, but also gained considerable benefits from Yi Shuihan's promise to protect Namek.
Following the elder's order, the other tribes quickly delivered their guarded Dragon Balls to the elder, and within 20 minutes all the Dragon Balls were gathered.
Yi Shuihan and the girls surrounded the Dragon Balls, touching them curiously. They couldn't get enough of this thing that allowed them to summon the dragon and make a wish once they collected all seven.
"That's amazing, can this thing really grant any wish?"
"It's impossible to fulfill any wish, but most wishes are possible. At least it shouldn't be able to allow me to directly break through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. The power of the Dragon Ball is directly proportional to its creator; the stronger the creator, the stronger the dragon summoned."
"Husband, are you planning to ask the dragon how to break through?"
Cai Yan's words enlightened Yi Shuihan. His original plan did not include directly asking Shenlong how he broke through, but now he realized that asking directly would be more convenient.
After giving Cai Yan a hard kiss on the cheek, making her blush, Yi Shuihan recited the incantation to summon the dragon.
The seven Dragon Balls shone brightly, and the sky over Namek instantly turned pitch black.
The colossal dragon Porunga appeared above the Dragon Balls, radiating boundless majesty; the scene was truly awe-inspiring.
"Wow, it's huge! But it's not very pretty."
"I also think it looks a bit off. Shouldn't it be called the Eastern Divine Dragon if it's a divine dragon?"
"Yes, I think the older sisters are right too."
Hearing what the group of girls said, Yi Shuihan deeply agreed, feeling that although the dragon on Earth had limited power, its appearance suited Yi Shuihan very well.
A chill ran through my heart.
"Tell me your wishes! You can only make three wishes."
Yi Shuihan sensed that Bolunga seemed a little unhappy, but he could understand. After all, Bolunga wasn't completely without intelligence. It was already quite good that he hadn't lost his temper after being talked about like that by the girls.
"My first wish is to know the star maps of all 12 universes."
Borunga paused for a moment and then said
"I cannot fulfill this request."
Yi Shuihan frowned slightly and spoke.
"So, at most, how many star maps of universes can you show me?"
Is this your first wish?
"No, how about this: tell me all the star charts you can tell me."
Such a wish was somewhat vague, but after looking at Yi Shuihan with his red eyes for a few seconds, Borunga slowly spoke.
"That's easy."
A burst of red light appeared in Bolunga's eyes, and then the star map of the sixth and seventh universes where they were located appeared in Yi Shuihan's mind.
Although it was far from the 12 universes that Yi Shuihan had envisioned, he could only reluctantly accept it, since this Bolunga was simply not up to par.
"If you have any other wishes, please tell me."
"Polunga spoke again."
"To help me break through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm?"
