Welcome to the Bizarre Games

Chapter 577 Going Home
Honestly, this was only the second time Zhou You had seen something red.

The first was that Heaven-Shaking Arrow. Although it was a special piece of equipment, almost like a consumable, its power was truly capable of killing a god in person.

And this name is simple and unadorned, even the martial arts technique, which is like something out of a Chinese martial arts novel, is red.
Zhou You was somewhat taken aback—he had originally thought that silver was the highest—but he suppressed his thoughts and continued reading.

Hunyuan Jin

"Erosion level: None".

Grade: Red

"This fist technique is a peak body-refining method, which is almost as powerful as entering the Dao through martial arts. However, its complete requirements are too demanding, which leads to a decrease in its grade. If it can be completed, it will be of gold quality."

"Effect: Hunyuan Jin is divided into six paths. The first path is Chuyuan, the second path is Chenyuan, the third path is Hantian, the fourth path is Kaitian, the fifth path is Potian, and the sixth path is Ruyi. The first three paths are fist techniques, but starting from the fourth path, it will not be limited to fist techniques. Instead, flying flowers and leaves can all be incorporated into this Jin."

This technique originated from the most basic Xiao Hong Quan (Little Hung Fist), which was said to be learnable even by young children. However, after being refined by countless masters, it underwent a complete transformation, ultimately becoming a supreme secret method.

The specifics of the fist technique weren't explained, but judging from Chen Luo's methods back then, we can make some inferences.

Its momentum is astonishing and unstoppable, and with a single punch, it can overcome any obstacle. However, there are also problems within it.

Since this isn't a highly successful exchange, choosing Zhou You means starting from scratch. He does have good talent in swordsmanship, but his fist techniques are different from swordsmanship. It remains to be seen how far he can progress.
Ultimately, it remains unknown.

He rested his chin on his hand and began to ponder.

Perhaps due to the similarly high degree of corruption involved in the cultivation techniques, the exchange prices for these items are shockingly high. Furthermore, this is only half of the script, and there is still room to use 'disaster', so it is definitely impossible to use them all. Roughly estimated, after deducting the superficial prison manual, it is probably only possible to exchange for one cultivation technique.

Besides, he knew that he couldn't bite off more than he could chew. He had already managed to consume all the goods in that general store, so he couldn't possibly add anything more.

"If we're only considering the minimum, the best option is definitely Master Chongxu's 'Dongjun Sichun Dian'. Although the curses on it are harsh, I'm usually very tolerant, so it's not a big deal for me. Besides, without resurrection coins, the ability to be reborn is extremely valuable. But the problem is the same: I've always been averse to such mysterious and insidious methods. Practicing it might even have the opposite effect."

"Speaking of the lowest limit, it would definitely be Martial Aunt Qingxia's dual cultivation technique. I personally don't reject this stuff, but the problem is, I'm a virgin who's never been in a relationship. Where am I supposed to find someone to cultivate with? I have plenty of brothers, but turning them into girls is a different story."

For some reason, Li Sanli's fat face suddenly appeared in my mind.

Upon realizing this, Zhou You's expression immediately changed drastically, looking as ugly as if he had eaten chocolate that tasted like feces.

"Forget it, besides, the roles of top and bottom might be reversed every few years. I'm a perfectly good guy, I don't want to be gender-swapped into a girl."

After much deliberation, Zhou You finally made his choice.

— Hunyuan Jin + Pixiang Yudian

Without him.

That's the highest possible limit.

He also suddenly realized a problem—the conditions for the Black Book's arrival were becoming increasingly stringent. His own team was frequently thrown into the script with nothing but a blank slate, and even the presence of Wan Rengu wasn't a guarantee of safety. After all, the sword itself was inherently fragile; who knew if it would break at a crucial moment?
But if you practice this style of boxing...
No matter how harsh the conditions for its arrival are, it can't just confiscate both of its hands, can it?

As for the type of tattoo, he chose the 'tiger' that he had seen on Chen Luo before.

After the selection was completed, a plate of paint and a long needle suddenly appeared in the void. Before Zhou You could react, two hands reached out from somewhere, grabbed his clothes, and pulled him down. The next moment, like raindrops of plum blossoms, the long needle swiftly pierced Zhou You's body.

It must be said that, putting aside everything else, the way the Black Book distributed rewards was masterful. The person didn't even feel much pain. After only half an incense stick's time, the long needle had already finished its work. He stood with his hands in his pockets, looking at the person as if he was examining them. After a while, he seemed to nod in satisfaction and disappeared into the void.

And the attributes of that martial art changed.

The Physical Examination Manual (Fragment) (Tiger)

"Effect: Increases the player's self-healing ability, protects against some minor damage. Each scenario can activate the tattoo three times, reducing any ranged damage for a short period of time and unleashing a tiger's roar, intimidating all units in the vicinity whose strength is significantly different from the player's."

Quan Lu Zhouyou didn't try it, and there wasn't much room to try it here. Moreover, fatigue and pain had already overwhelmed him, and his eyelids were almost too heavy to keep open. So he just yawned and then said sleepily.

"Disengage."

This script wasn't settled, so it was directly scheduled out.

—But long after he left.

In that empty hall.

But then a soft sigh suddenly came.

When I got home, it was just the right time to get home.

There is a difference between the actual time and the time in the script. It is currently afternoon, and the sunlight is streaming in through the window, making the room warm and cozy.

The TV was on, but it wasn't playing the little ghost girl's favorite cartoon. Instead, it was an unknown youth drama where the male and female leads were going through a melodramatic separation. However, Zhou You wasn't interested in it and couldn't figure out what the two of them were crying about even after trying to understand for a while.

After watching for a while, he lost interest.

Looking around, he couldn't see the little ghost girl in the warm sunlight. There was only a black cat lying on the table. When it saw him, it lazily sat up and meowed as if to say hello.

Zhou You forced himself to stay awake and slowly walked out. When he arrived at the kitchen, sure enough, he saw the little ghost possessing the doll, wearing a mini apron, and carefully cleaning the corner.

Only then did Zhou You begin to feel a sense of reality.

I've truly come home.

As she entered the kitchen, the sound of her footsteps made the little ghost girl turn around—at first she was a little stunned, seemingly incredulous, but soon a surprised smile appeared on her small face.

He tilted his head and gestured a few times, as if to say something.

Welcome home.

Zhou You also flashed a bright smile.

"Yes, I'm back."
