System's Super Sect-Chapter 112, Flame Skill!
Chapter 112: 112, Flame Skill!
Huan Cheng raised his torch and leaned his face close to Wenping.
"Kid, my brother isn’t here. I’m half a relative to you, so stop playing dumb, and speak up!"
"I really don’t know."
"Hm?"
Huan Cheng immediately got angry and glared fiercely at Wenping.
Wenping smiled helplessly and stepped back a few steps, "Maybe he died from running, due to the mismatch between exercise and rest."
Brushing it off!
Absolutely brushing it off!
Huan Cheng stared at Wenping with wide eyes, as if to say: Do I look like a fool to you?
"Good kid, got a tight lip. I underestimated you before."
"Uncle, I swear, I’m telling the truth."
"Keep making it up!"
Huan Cheng snorted coldly and turned to leave.
Wenping stood there watching for a while. When he saw the torch really descending the mountain, he finally headed towards the dormitory area.
The plan to climb the Thousand Layers tonight was shelved.
But as he turned to leave, a numeric value popped up before his eyes — 1600/100000.
Tonight, 48 more people learned of the Immortal Sect’s extraordinariness.
...
After sleeping in the dormitory area for a night, Wenping arrived early at Tingyu Pavilion. The upgraded Tingyu Pavilion had undergone earth-shaking changes, appearing much more grand than before and generally larger.
The old Tingyu Pavilion felt like a small building, with the elegance of a scholar; small but stylish.
But the current Tingyu Pavilion is like a mansion, devoid of scholarly elegance but carrying a unique style.
There’s a courtyard and a pond, giving the feel of a secluded master’s residence.
Apart from the change in appearance of Tingyu Pavilion, Wenping also noticed the change in Haha squatting in front of the house. Its eyes turned pure black, with a slight hint of red, inconspicuous but exuding a strange color.
Its appearance still resembled a Mountain Dog, but the aura it emitted now had a hint of hellish flavor, akin to that of an Evil Spirit Knight.
Haha had changed, though the Evil Spirit Knight didn’t change much, remaining the same in appearance, but this made Wenping the happiest.
Power of the Upper Profound Realm.
No need to fear anyone at East Lake—of course, as long as those ancient figures from major forces don’t show up.
Then, Wenping opened the interior shop of the upgraded Tingyu Pavilion, which displayed a wooden board, one meter long and wide, with brown annual ring patterns looking like a bulletin board.
After reading the item description, Wenping was stunned; it really was a bulletin board, replacing the hand-written fee table with a price tag: 2000 Gold Coin.
"This... can I call it pointless?"
"Host, be content. It’s made from the Tree of Life’s trunk, a priceless treasure, and the 2000 Gold price is almost like finding money fallen from the sky. Moreover, the interior store mainly refreshes sect auxiliary tools, which upon upgrading may even refresh plaques. Would the host dislike this too?"
Wenping giggled, "Of course not, I’m content, how could I not be content."
Saying so, Wenping bought the bulletin board and, after clicking to use it, the bulletin board directly replaced the paper fee table outside each cultivation field. Upon learning it syncs the Immortal Sect’s fee structure for cultivation fields, Wenping thought it wasn’t too bad and not just an ornament.
In this world, such convenient and fast intelligent products make 2000 Gold quite affordable.
Then Wenping headed straight to the Library Pavilion.
What he had anticipated all night arrived.
The Library Pavilion, once surrounded by weeds and vines, after being remodeled, had not only a smooth road but also a very clean and tidy land surrounding it.
The doors, windows, and eaves dusty before were all renewed. If he came to the Immortal Sect for the first time, he’d really think the Library Pavilion was newly built.
Wenping asked, "System, tell me everything about the Library Pavilion."
The system replied, "As a Super Sect, the Library Pavilion doesn’t necessarily have to have countless rare cultivation techniques, ten books are enough! Each floor of the remodeled Library Pavilion has a trial, completing the trial grants the corresponding layer’s rewards. For instance, the first floor’s trial rewards: Martial Arts."
"Didn’t fill it up!"
Wenping felt slightly disappointed; the gap between dreams and reality was too big, right?
Just one Martial Arts and charging a Thousand Gold?
Isn’t the Flood Dragon’s Fury in the dormitory area a decoration?
"This Thousand Gold only gets you in once with Martial Arts as a reward; it doesn’t seem appropriate, does it?"
"Host, go in and explore yourself."
"Learned to keep secrets too." Wenping could only hope that the Martial Arts would be special.
But no matter how special, it’s still just Martial Arts.
With squeezed-out anticipation, Wenping walked to the entrance, reached out, and only when his hand plunged into the trial realm of the Library Pavilion did he fully step inside. What greeted him was a desert with a fiery red sun hanging overhead.
Looking forward, endless sand dunes, looking back, the same.
Occasionally, the wind blew through, kicking up sand, bringing a murderous aura directly at him.
"First floor, a sky full of fire!"
The sound from the system in his ear vanished quickly, then sand suddenly rustled ahead, causing Wenping to subconsciously retreat. Just as he did, two figures in black, masked like nocturnal assassins, leaped out.
Both were Body Refining Seventh Layer!
For Wenping, the first floor held no suspense; two cultivators of the Body Refining Seventh Layer weren’t enough to fill his teeth.
"System, is this the so-called trial? Shouldn’t we change the fee standard, Thousand Gold is really excessive."
"Host, you should worry about yourself."
As the system’s words fell, Wenping’s expression suddenly changed; those two assassins began making seals!
"What the heck, what’s going on?"
"Martial Arts require sealing?"
Wenping’s exclamations didn’t get a reply from the system, as amidst his startled face, a sea of fire suddenly appeared before him, veiling the sky and directly charging at him.
"My gosh! Vein Technique!"
Wenping hurriedly retreated, feeling immensely shocked, then heard the system speak: "Host should’ve read the detailed description before coming in. The rewarded Martial Arts and Technique separated by the second character ’法,’ meaning Technique. The first floor trial gives a ten percent chance to comprehend Fireball Skill, with host enjoying multiple one hundred percent chances on the first attempt. But it’s advised not to waste the one hundred percent chance on the first floor as it’s just simple Flame Skill! Stronger than Martial Arts but not significantly stronger."
Wenping smiled helplessly, took a sudden leap backwards, rolling down the dune to dodge the incoming flames.
After stabilizing and getting up, Wenping chuckled ruefully; he could easily crush even the Body Refining Thirteenth Layer, and yet he was pushed like this by two Body Refining Seventh Layers!
Intolerable beyond measure!
Wenping asked, "Where should I use that hundred percent comprehension chance?"
The system replied, "Fifth floor—the fifth floor trial is Fire Dragon Skill, though not entering the Vein Technique grade, it surpasses the Yellow Level Middle Grade Vein Technique!"
