【No materials detected in the backpack. Spend 60,000 to purchase raw materials?】
Ye Chuan was stunned when he saw the price of the materials for the Revival Pill.
The Deer Blood Pill only cost 6,000 in materials, right? How come the Revival Pill’s materials cost 60,000?
Seriously, just because I have money, you’re going to milk me dry?
Ye Chuan was furious—this was unacceptable!
He scrutinized the ingredients listed in the pill formula and finally noticed that the Deer Blood Pill was actually a mortal-grade pill, while the Revival Pill was a genuine low-grade pill, a whole tier higher.
"Whatever, I thought the Revival Pill was on the same level as the Deer Blood Pill." Once he realized this, Ye Chuan stopped dwelling on it.
Expensive? There’s a reason for it.
At the very least, the Revival Pill would definitely sell for more than 60,000.
Ye Chuan glanced at the success rate for refining the pill and, seeing it was 99%, nodded in satisfaction. At least upgrading the alchemy furnace earlier hadn’t been a waste.
【Pill refining in progress. Countdown: 47 hours 59 minutes】
【Spend 3,000 to speed up?】
No?
No!
Ye Chuan had no intention of letting the app squeeze more money out of him. Two days was nothing—he wasn’t in a hurry anyway, since he already had one pill on hand to give to Luo's mother later.
After resting for a bit, Ye Chuan decided to go on an adventure.
【1. Tianxuan Continent】
【2. Aiser Continent (Locked)】
Ever since Lilith arrived, the option for Aiser Continent had appeared, but since the lady hadn’t settled in yet, he couldn’t select it for adventures.
【Balance requirement met. Spend 1,000,000 to unlock holographic adventure mode?】
【Holographic adventure allows personal experience of the adventure process with zero risk of death】
Oh?
Ye Chuan raised an eyebrow in surprise. Did this mean he wouldn’t have to rely on text-based adventures anymore and could actually step inside?
If that was the case, would there be a chance in the future to unlock a feature to bring Bai Qianshuang back to the Tianxuan Continent?
He checked the price.
One million!
He’d only just earned 1.2 million.
Great. The system makes money, the system spends it—not a single cent makes it home.
Soon, a familiar window popped up.
【Limited-time discount: 888,888
Countdown: 7 hours 59 minutes】
Ye Chuan: "……"
Ye Chuan pressed "Reject" with a deadpan expression.
"I love saying NO to a presumptuous system." He flashed a peace sign while wearing a smug, meme-worthy grin.
The money hadn’t even warmed his pockets yet!
Seeing Ye Chuan reject the offer, the pop-up vanished, taking the holographic adventure purchase window with it.
Ye Chuan exited and re-entered the page, only to find the window truly gone.
"What, like a petty child? Not selling to me anymore?" He smirked, but given the app’s usual behavior, he knew it would eventually offer the good stuff again.
Not dwelling on it, he proceeded with his usual adventure on the Tianxuan Continent.
Between the "sweep" and "direct adventure" options, Ye Chuan chose the latter—since he had some free time, why not play around a bit?
【You appear in a cave on the Donghua Divine Continent of the Tianxuan Continent. The place is littered with blood pools and mutilated corpses, the gruesome sight making you uneasy. In the distance, a familiar Foundation Establishment-stage wolf demon spots you and immediately panics: "You again?!!!" Your choices...】
【1. Challenge the wolf demon】
【2. Turn and flee】
"You again?" Ye Chuan had lost count of how many times he’d heard this. Seems like he and Brother Wolf were fated.
Considering this guy had killed him multiple times, he didn’t hesitate to choose "Challenge!"
【You choose to fight the wolf demon. Your Foundation Establishment-stage strength matches his, but the overwhelming regenerative power of your Chaos Immortal Body gives him a hard time】
【"What kind of monster are you?!" the wolf demon curses before attempting to flee. You summon your Doppelganger to block his escape, turning the duel into a righteous gang-up】
【The wolf demon can’t hold out and surrenders. Your choices...】
【1. Kill】
【2. Spare】
Kill?
Spare?
Ye Chuan grinned. Oh, what a tough choice.
Should he kill? Or maybe kill? Or perhaps killing was the better option?
【"I regret this… After devouring blood sacrifices for centuries, I die by your hand!" The wolf demon perishes unwillingly. Convert into a clone?】
【Conversion successful】
【Clone: Blood Wolf Demon
Realm: Early Foundation Establishment】
【You defeat the wolf demon and find abundant loot, ending Day 1. Items to bring back: 16】
That’s it?
Ye Chuan hadn’t expected defeating the wolf demon to wrap up Day 1. Maybe because it was a mini-boss?
He checked his backpack and found the spoils quite impressive.
Spirit stones, medicinal herbs, cultivation manuals…
The spirit stones could be given to Bai Qianshuang for fun or used as currency—either way, they were valuable. The herbs could be used for pill refining, saving him some money.
As for the manuals, Ye Chuan skimmed through and found they were dark cultivation techniques.
【Item: Blood Art
Learning this grants mastery over the Blood Art, allowing power gain through devouring blood sacrifices】
Pretty useless.
But Ye Chuan noticed that manuals, like constitutions and spiritual roots, could be synthesized. Meaning, if he collected enough, he could fuse them into higher-tier manuals.
He’d keep it for now.
After organizing his backpack, Ye Chuan decided to summon the wolf demon.
With a wave of his hand, the ground darkened as chaotic energy swirled—a devouring force that seemed capable of consuming everything.
Soon, a three-meter-tall giant wolf materialized before him.
Its spiky red-black fur stood on end, and though its frame was lean, its aura screamed danger. Its claws, dozens of centimeters long, gleamed coldly.
Ye Chuan could clearly sense its power—it had indeed reached the Foundation Establishment stage.
But it was weaker than him.
Thus, it was nothing more than an ant.
"So this is the wolf demon that killed me a few times?" Ye Chuan looked up at the towering werewolf and couldn’t help but click his tongue. "You’re too tall. Kneel."
"Yes." The wolf demon’s voice was deep as it obediently dropped to its knees.
Even kneeling, it was at eye level with Ye Chuan.
"I killed you. Any thoughts?" Ye Chuan asked, amused by its absolute submission.
The wolf demon, now a clone, seemed to have limited intelligence. It stared blankly for a moment before answering respectfully,
"Master, you did well."
Ye Chuan smirked, simultaneously noticing his spiritual energy draining slightly—maintaining the clone required his own power.
"Not bad." Remembering how this thing had killed him multiple times, he scoffed.
"Alright, now go dance for me. Pole dance."
end. Thus one must continue to cultivate, and become a saint or great emperor, in order to prolong one's life. Chen Xia, however, completely reversed this. Since his transmigration, he has gained immortality, and also a system that awards him with attribute points for every year he lives. Thus between the myriad worlds, the legend of an unparalleled senior appeared. "A gentleman takes revenge; it is never too late even after ten thousand years." "When you were at your peak I yielded, now in your old age I shall trample on you." - Chen Xia
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
