第6話 "Exactly as you say, Master."
The Dragon-Tiger Vitality Pill, now available for purchase by Lu Han. Produced by the system, it's undoubtedly a high-quality product. Although it has limited effects on cultivation, it's affordable and practical for ordinary people. However, Lu Han can't buy other items yet due to strict level restrictions in the system store. Even though he has enough diamonds, he can only purchase goods suitable for the Foundation Establishment stage. Lu Han purchased a Dragon-Tiger Vitality Pill for a hundred diamonds. Immediately, the pill appeared in the system storage, along with options to Take Out, Use, Recycle, or List for sale. These options allow items bought from the system store to be sold or used in reality. Despite temptation, Lu Han refrains from trying it out, as it's not the right time during his livestream, where things are becoming inappropriate.
Purple Mist Peak, inside a splendidly decorated room.
Tiger-head demon bowed respectfully to Chen Feng and introduced, "Senior Brother, this is the best room on Purple Mist Peak. Originally, I lived here, but now it naturally belongs to Senior Brother."
"But rest assured, Senior Brother, I've had my subordinates clean it thoroughly three times. There won't be a speck of dirt!"
Chen Feng nodded in satisfaction. It seemed this tiger-head demon knew how to handle things.
"Well done," he praised.
Pleased with the compliment, the tiger-head demon left cheerfully.
Suddenly, Chen Feng called him back, "Wait."
The demon returned promptly, standing beside Chen Feng, awaiting orders.
Chen Feng asked cautiously, "This breakthrough has consumed a lot of essence. There are many things I can't seem to remember, like... how to leave the demon domain. Can you remind me?"
Perplexed, the demon looked at Chen Feng, "Senior Brother, have you forgotten even that?"
Feigning anger, Chen Feng barked, "Speak!"
The demon explained obediently, "A thousand years ago, our demon clan suffered a devastating defeat in a war with the human race. We were forced to this desolate place, separated from the fertile Central Land by a vast sea."
"At first, the humans stationed many cultivators to guard, and we demons couldn't return to the Central Land. But now, after centuries, humans no longer guard us as closely. The borders of Central Land are vast, making it difficult to maintain constant vigilance."
"Taking advantage of this, our demon clan secretly built ships and returned to Central Land to retaliate against humans."
Chen Feng realized why his previous memories contained little about demons; they had been confined to this demon domain.
"So, how often does this ship sail?" he inquired.
"The ship sails once every ten years. The last departure was just a few days ago!"
"What?" Chen Feng was taken aback. Did that mean he had to wait ten years to return?
This revelation was like a bolt from the blue.
"Is that true?" he asked.
Excitedly, the tiger-head demon affirmed, "Absolutely true! The day it sails is called the 'Wrath of Ten Thousand Demons'. It sets sail only once every ten years and docks for just three days. If you fail to return to the ship within those three days, you're at the mercy of human cultivators!"
Chen Feng contemplated deeply. He had to survive in the demon domain for ten years until the next 'Wrath of Ten Thousand Demons' to return to Central Land. It was a long-term goal.
The immediate crisis was his battle with the Elephant Spirit tomorrow. What could he do?
"The system!" he realized. He hadn't fully explored its capabilities yet; maybe he could find a solution there.
After using the 'Mysterious Laughter' effect, he knew it was good for setting the mood but not suitable for tomorrow's serious battle. He turned his attention to another effect.
"System, what does the 'Boundary Effect' mean?"
"Master, the Boundary Effect refers to effects unique to cultivation realms. The 'Mysterious Green Stink' effect you possess is a Boundary Effect of the Dragon Ascension realm."
"So, this stinky fart can make others think I'm a powerful Dragon Ascension cultivator?"
"Exactly as you say, Master."
Chen Feng grinned. Finally, he had a plan.
He would use the 'Mysterious Green Stink' effect during tomorrow's battle, pretending to be a formidable cultivator and misleading the Elephant Spirit. It was his only hope against an opponent of such a higher realm.
Feeling reassured, Chen Feng focused on familiarizing himself with the effect to ensure no mishaps during its use tomorrow.
"System, activate the 'Mysterious Green Stink' effect."
As soon as he said it, Chen Feng felt gas building up in his stomach, which he expelled with force. The green gas spread, leaving a distinct smell.
However, it was more potent than he expected.
Chen Feng hurriedly adjusted the settings to reduce the smell and tried again, but it was still overpowering.
Realizing he needed more control, he experimented with adjusting the settings until he found a manageable level.
Tomorrow, he would rely on this effect to maintain his dignity as a Dragon Ascension cultivator. Even at its lowest concentration, it was a gamble against such a formidable opponent.
Feeling more prepared, Chen Feng continued to adjust the settings, gaining valuable experience from the unexpected odor attack earlier.
Ultimately, he resolved to face tomorrow's battle with confidence, armed with the 'Mysterious Green Stink' effect as his secret weapon.
