【Enhancement to +14 Soul Banner Failed!】
Ye Chuan:"......"
Seeing the directly failed Soul Banner, Ye Chuan just felt a chill on the back of his head. He sat in his chair, staring at the information on the screen.
You've got to be kidding me!
You've got to be kidding me!
"I got carried away. I thought I could get three successes in a row." Ye Chuan had been too greedy; after getting it to +13, he wanted +14.
The Soul Banner originally had a triple attribute boost value, now it was directly reset to zero!
"I should've never tried to enhance it." Ye Chuan rubbed his temples. This new feature was simply a money sink; it seemed like no amount of money was ever enough.
But the problem was, the improvement it brought was indeed very substantial.
Spend money to get stronger!
"Let's get it back to +13 first." Ye Chuan bought another pile of protection coupons, then relentlessly started pumping money into the enhancement. He didn't know how much time had passed—first there was the cycle of +4, +5, +6, +7, then over a dozen attempts later, he couldn't even get past +11.
After spending a good few hundred million, a pleasant sound finally rang out.
【Enhancement to +13 Soul Banner Successful!】
"It's back, it's all back." Seeing his Soul Banner back at +13, Ye Chuan silently glanced at the +14 option again.
What if this time... it works?
Last time it failed at +14, surely it'll succeed this time?
Ye Chuan really wanted to give it one more try, but in the end, reason returned, and he forcefully stopped himself because he still had better equipment in his inventory that needed enhancing.
Ye Chuan took out the Demon Sword Beyana from his backpack and looked at its attributes.
【Item: Demon Sword Beyana Dark Gold
Legendary Weapon
A weapon inhabited by a sword spirit, possessing the power to slash souls. The user will have their magic power continuously drained until death.】
The sword in his hand was pitch black, with only thin red lines pulsating like blood vessels.
This was a weapon he obtained from the Aiser Continent back then. In terms of quality, it should be considered the strongest sword in Ye Chuan's possession, but it was rather special—
It was a weapon that directly attacked the soul, meaning it ignored defense and struck at the essence. Because of this unique property, Ye Chuan rarely used it, as it didn't feel quite right to wield.
Moreover, he hadn't encountered any enemies powerful enough to warrant its use.
On top of that, holding this sword would continuously drain his magic power from a distance. One could only say its attack power was immense, and ordinary people couldn't even wield it.
"You're currently stronger than my Soul Banner, so let's get you to +13 first."
Ye Chuan started tinkering with it.
After spending who knows how much money again, the Demon Sword Beyana finally reached +13.
"Nice!"
【Equipment: Demon Sword Beyana Dark Gold
Enhancement Level: 13
Attribute Boost: 300%
+14 Enhancement Success Rate: 22%】
【Proceed with enhancement? Cost: 68,000,000】
Furthermore, after successfully reaching +13, the Demon Sword actually emitted a faint pink glow, its aura appearing even more sinister and terrifying.
Ye Chuan held the pitch-black Demon Sword in his left hand and the pitch-black Soul Banner in his right.
"Hmm, this is more like what a righteous person should look like." Ye Chuan nodded, though getting one sword and one magical treasure to this point had seriously dented his wallet.
"Whatever, as long as the stats are improved."
Ye Chuan no longer cared how much money he had spent; strength was the most important thing.
However, Ye Chuan still couldn't stop thinking about +14 weapons.
He currently had two of them.
Was there a possibility—
That one of the two could succeed?
What if his luck exploded and both could succeed?
This thought lingered in Ye Chuan's mind, refusing to leave. Although, based on the 22% probability, on average you'd need five attempts to succeed once, meaning the most likely outcome was both weapons resetting to zero.
One must know, the cost to make one was over a hundred million; with bad luck, several hundred million.
Even for Ye Chuan, a few more rounds like this and his wallet would start feeling the strain.
"Can't take it anymore."
"Maybe... try one? If it fails, I can still keep one at +13." As Ye Chuan was thinking this, he took a deep breath and placed the Soul Banner into the enhancement slot.
"It's fine, just one try."
Ye Chuan thought for a moment, then switched apps to play a song.
【Go all out, don't overthink it~】
"Charge!" Ye Chuan pressed the button, and the furnace in the enhancement interface began to shake violently. He immediately closed his eyes, waiting for that pleasant sound to ring out.
Succeed!
Succeed!!
"Thud—"
Ye Chuan opened his eyes to find the interface darkened, with a window popping up.
【Enhancement to +14 Soul Banner Failed!】
Ye Chuan:"......"
Forget it, at least I'll keep the Demon Sword Beyana.
But then Ye Chuan thought again, what if Beyana could make it?
"Whatever, one more try." Ye Chuan had completely forgotten his plan to keep one weapon and directly tossed the Demon Sword Beyana in.
"Succeed!"
"Thud—"
【Enhancement to +14 Demon Sword Beyana Failed!】
You've got to be kidding me?!
You've got to be kidding me?!
Not a single one could make it?!
Ye Chuan's vision went dark, and he lay down on the bed, silently staring at the ceiling.
"Gamblers deserve to die."
Ye Chuan felt the pain in his flesh. Although making money was easy now, spending it was indeed like flowing water... no, like a waterfall.
In the end, Ye Chuan painfully spent several more hours getting both weapons back to +13, then directly turned off his phone screen, choosing to calm himself down.
"Alright, alright, no more whaling. Need to calm down."
Ye Chuan sat by the bed for a while, then another thought flashed through his mind. "But if I try one more time and succeed, wouldn't that make up for all the money I just lost?"
"How about... one last time..."
"Chuan Chuan!"
Right at that moment, a voice came from the door, and a familiar ponytailed girl peeked her head in. "Chuan Chuan, Xiaoke just said you encountered something good? That you were laughing really hard."
Luo Xi happened to come home and heard Lan Xiaoke mention that Ye Chuan had suddenly burst out laughing. However, now looking at Ye Chuan, she noticed he seemed to be sweating profusely.
"What's wrong?"
"Ah, it's nothing." Hearing Luo Xi's voice, Ye Chuan seemed to calm down a little.
"Oh? Did something happy happen just now?"
"My strength improved." Ye Chuan said. "So I'm quite happy."
"Oh?" Luo Xi didn't think much of it. "I just bought some angelica and crucian carp. I'll stew some angelica crucian carp tofu soup later."
"Okay."
Luo Xi smiled sweetly, then turned and left the room.
And Ye Chuan finally calmed down. He silently checked his wallet and found over a billion had been spent.
"......"
"Need to calm down. There's still so much equipment left to work on."
Moreover, Ye Chuan also planned to get some enhancements for Qian Shuang and the others, which wouldn't be a small sum either.
"No, I need to make money." Ye Chuan crossed his arms, then finally took out his phone and directly contacted Wang Yanran.
"Hey, Yanran—"

esick Sect? Well, at least it's considered a respectable orthodox sect. Wait a minute— What kind of vibe are you all giving off? Shouldn’t this be a love-struck, romance-obsessed sect? Why does everyone here sound more like demonic cultivators? "Master, today he’s getting married. This disciple wishes to descend the mountain and crash the wedding, then toy with him to death right in front of his wife..." "Elder, I only got into your sect through connections, so why won’t you teach me anything?" "Because I also became an elder through connections." Thankfully, Su Ji was just an outer sect labor disciple. Surely, nothing too crazy would— "Junior Brother, you’ve broken through to Qi Refining. Once you sever your useless spiritual root, you can officially become an outer sect disciple." "The Great Dao is merciless. Don’t let a worthless spiritual root waste your essence and spirit, hindering your cultivation." Is this really the Lovesick Sect? ... Three years later, Su Ji sat in the seat of the Lovesick Sect’s sect master, sighing with emotion. His rise to this position all started when his junior sister adamantly insisted on preserving his "spiritual root." "Mmm... Senior Brother, what’s our relationship now?" "Stop talking. Keep going." "By the way, that newly promoted top-tier sect—didn’t they come to buy our Love Beans?" "One top-grade spirit stone per Love Bean—is that really so expensive?" "I suspect they’ve eaten too many Love Beans." "Now they’re lovesick." Well, this really is the Lovesick Sect after all.
