A great adventure in the world of immortal cultivation

Page 38

Han Buli: Sure, sure, it should be a sure thing for Lao Xiao to enter the inner gate this time.

Joan of Arc: Brother will take care of it.

KP: Successfully broke through to the fourth level of Qi Refining. Xiao Huohuo's maximum HP and MP increased by [1d8].

萧火火HP：27+【1d8：7】=34

萧火火MP：22+【1d8：5】=27

Xiao Huohuo: Hehe, in tomorrow’s sect competition, I will make Lin Yuxuan so excited that he will grit his teeth!

————————————————————————————————————

It’s my double update, don’t say I’m short!

047 Battle (Day 19)

KP: Okay, there is no plot on Xiao Huohuo's side for now, let's go back to the 19th day. Since Xiao Huohuo has started to retreat, only the three of you, Han Buli, are active during this period.

Han Buli: Lao Xiao is dead. (Sad)

Xiao Huohuo: Byd, why did I die? (annoyed)

Han Buli: You can’t survive now. If you are not alive, then you are dead.

Xiao Huohuo: ...

Romeo: That's a valid point.

Joan of Arc: Convincing.

Xiao Huohuo:

KP: Hahaha, then putting aside the dead, Han Buli, what are you three planning to do today?

Han Buli: I will go directly to the Central Hall to check out the tasks. If there is nothing interesting, I will go to the Arena to practice [Three Thousand Thunders].

Joan of Arc: I will go to the second floor of the Sutra Library to learn some magic first, and then go back to practice Qi training. My brother has reached the fourth level of Qi training, so I, his sister, should at least reach the third level.

Romeo: I'm with Joan of Arc.

KP: Let's go ahead and finish Romeo and Joan of Arc's storyline. You all arrive at the Sutra Library, spending 100 Spiritual Stones each to enter the second floor.

Disciple A: Hmm? Another new disciple has entered the second floor?

Disciple C: Where did they get the spirit stones?

Disciple B: Tsk, he’s just a dandy kid from a wealthy family, what’s so great about him?

Joan of Arc: This disciple B is so jealous.

Romeo: That’s right, if you have the ability, go find the grass to get gold coins.

Joan of Arc:?

KP: You go to the second floor of the Sutra Library, talk about the magic you want, and then check your luck and read (if any).

Jeanne: I want sword-controlling magic! Spiritual root attributes don't matter, I want the best quality!

Joan of Arc: Lucky, 32/60, successful.

Reading, 8/50, success.

Joan of Arc: So steady.

KP: OK, so with her excellent reading comprehension skills and a little bit of luck, Joan of Arc quickly found a scroll of gold-based sword-wielding magic among a number of scrolls.

[Hundred-Step Flying Sword], a ranged immortal technique, 7 MP. Controls a flying sword for a ranged attack, granting it gold attributes and adding [1d3] gold damage. If the sword is gold, the damage is increased by an additional 30%. If the sword is fire, the success rate of the sword is reduced by 20%.

Jeanne: Although, my [Red Sun Sword] is fire attribute. (Half annoyed)

KP: Hey, while the [Red Sun Sword] doesn't benefit from the 30% bonus damage, your [Huang Jing Short Sword] does. And even if it's the [Red Sun Sword], after being given the Metal attribute, it now deals mixed Metal and Fire damage. It's not countered by Water, and can actually counter Metal and Wood. As for the Sword Control success rate, the [Red Sun Sword] itself adds 20%, so you can make up for the rest with practice later.

Joan of Arc: (Thinking) That seems to make some sense.

Han Buli: Choose the strong over the weak? Is mixed damage so noble?

Xiao Huohuo: Oh my god, I feel like sword cultivators are so strong.

KP: If you are really not satisfied, I can also replace it with a fire-type sword-controlling technique, but the quality will be slightly lower.

Joan of Arc: Forget it, forget it, let’s just go with this!

贞德：【百步飞剑】，（80+【1d100：1】）/2=40%

Joan of Arc:?

Xiao Huohuo: Happy.

Jeanne: I feel like I've been tricked by KP. (Stamps her feet)

KP: That's funny. Okay, now it's Romeo's turn. What do you want to learn?

Romeo: I’m not going. I came here mainly to see if I can meet Sister Xiaonan. KP, is Sister Xiaonan here?

KP: (Dark Dice)

KP: No, but there is someone you know here.

Romeo: Who?

KP: Sima Wu.

Romeo: Holy shit.

Xiao Huohuo: Le, Brother Sima is everywhere.

Han Buli: When you meet a good man like Brother Sima, Lao Luo, just marry him.

Joan of Arc: To be honest, Brother Sima and I don’t know each other yet, and we have never had any conflicts with each other. I’ll leave first.

KP: Joan of Arc realized that something was wrong and walked away quickly. Romeo also wanted to escape, but your figure was too conspicuous and Sima Wu, who was not far away, spotted you instantly.

Sima Wu: Hmm?

Romeo: Well, since we can't change the status quo, we can only start enjoying it. I want to flirt with Sima-ge~ Speaking of which, KP, can I charm Sima-ge?

KP: Considering how much Sima Wu dislikes you, your charm needs to be a big success to be effective.

Romeo: Let's roll the dice.

Romeo: Charm, 35/(50-20), failed.

Romeo: Although my charm was unsuccessful, I know that Brother Sima is now at the fourth level of Qi Refining.

Xiao Huohuo: What a show.

KP: On the other side, Sima Wu, with an unhappy expression, naturally interpreted your flirting as a provocation. His already gloomy eyes became even colder. He snorted coldly, walked over, and stood half a meter in front of you. Then he silently took a step back, as if he felt that he was too close and needed to look up at you to lose his momentum.

Joan of Arc: Happy, Brother Sima is so cute.

Sima Wu: What? You big fool, are you so impatient to die? Do you really think I wouldn't dare to do anything?

Romeo: Huh? You're so bold, Laodi! I'm going to walk up to him, puff out my chest, and give him a good beating with my powerful pecs!

Sima Wu: Dodge, 91/60, failed.

Xiao Huohuo: Grass.

KP: I didn't expect you to do such a bold move. Sima Wu was stunned for a moment and was hit in the face by your pectoralis major. He lost his balance and took two steps back before he could steady himself.

Sima Wu: Are you looking for death?!

KP: Sima Wu, having regained his footing, roared angrily, and a pale green spiritual energy gushed out, shaking the surrounding bookshelves slightly. Seeing this, the other disciples in the Sutra Library also cast glances over, some expressing displeasure at being interrupted, some expressing bewildered surprise, but most of them watching with schadenfreude.

KP: However, compared to the gloating of others, Romeo's eyes flashed. Sima Wu seemed to have released some kind of spell. Those gloomy gray eyes kept getting bigger in your field of vision, which was extremely terrifying.

KP: Romeo over-willed.

Romeo: Will, 25/(55-20), success.

Romeo: Hey~

KP: Romeo shook his head and blinked, and the scene before him returned to normal, as if what had just happened was just an illusion.

KP: At this moment, a cold snort was heard from the Sutra Library.

The elder of the Sutra Repository: This is a sacred place for the sutras, private fighting is strictly prohibited, and violators will have their cultivation abolished and be expelled from the sect!

Sima Wu: Humph!

KP: Sima Wu restrained his spiritual energy and looked at you with a somewhat uncertain look, as if he didn't expect your will to be so firm.

Romeo: Brother Sima, please stop looking at me. If you keep looking at me, I will see that my determination is more than just my will. (shy)

Han Buli: Against the will of heaven.

KP: It’s against the will of heaven.

KP: After the elder of the Sutra Repository gave him a warning, Sima Wu no longer had any intention of continuing to pester you. He just whispered something to you when he passed by you, in a voice that only the two of you could hear.

Sima Wu: Tonight at midnight, outside the Poison Valley in the back mountain, do you dare to come?

Romeo: Of course, whoever doesn't come is a grandson!

Han Buli: I keep saying harsh words, but I won’t go into actual combat.

Romeo: Hehe, the one who understands me is Brother Han.

KP: Hearing you agree so casually, Sima Wu smiled grimly and patted your shoulder "friendly".

Sima Wu: Haha, I hope you will keep your promise, otherwise... Ya Xiaonan will be in danger.

Romeo: Huh?

048 Delivery (day19)

Xiao Huohuo: What happened? Why is Ya Xiaonan in danger?

Han Buli: BYD Luo Yonghao really loves whoever he wants to die.

Romeo: I think it’s not my problem, it’s KP’s problem.

KP: Aren't you always asking for Xiaonan? Isn't it good enough that I arranged it for you?

Romeo: Is this the arrangement?

Han Buli: Free love has turned into forced blind dates.

Joan of Arc: Matchmaker Sima Ge?

Xiao Huohuo: Happy.

KP: Anyway, that's how things developed. With the Sutra Library incident over, Romeo and Jeanne can consider your next steps: continue your training or prepare for tonight's Date A Live.

Romeo: Wait, why is it over? Did you, KP, eat my magic?

KP: Shit, I totally forgot about it.

Joan of Arc: This KP is just lame.

KP: (half annoyed) So Romeo, what kind of magic do you want? Hurry up.

Romeo: Any gold series is fine, preferably one that is more comprehensive and has one trick up its sleeve.

KP: You sound like an old lazy dog right from the start. You’re so lucky.

Romeo: Lucky, 73/45, failed.

Scripture Pavilion Boy: Hello.

Romeo:?

Romeo Spirit Stone -10.

The Bookboy in the Sutra Library: Thank you for your patronage. I have found the appropriate magic technique according to your requirements.

Romeo:!
