Transmigrated Scoundrel's Exchange System-Chapter 95: Shadow Panther

A man with golden hair stood tall in the pagoda, and his eyes closed in deep meditation as he meditated about something. His face was chiseled and defined, with sharp cheekbones and a strong jawline. His golden hair was swept back from his forehead, revealing a high, noble brow. The man's eyes were closed, but if they were open, they would be a piercing shade of blue, full of wisdom and power.

Every inch of his body seemed to radiate an otherworldly aura, making him seem larger than life. His skin was a radiant gold color, almost as if he was crafted from the very metal itself. His robes were a deep golden color, trimmed with gold thread and intricate designs. The man's fingers were long and slender, adorned with rings of pure gold.

Suddenly, the man's eyes snapped open, revealing a pair of golden orbs. He spoke in a deep, commanding voice, "There is an anomaly." His voice was powerful and resonant, filling the pagoda with its intensity.

As he spoke, the air around him seemed to shimmer and twist as if the very fabric of reality was warping to his will, and a figure appeared before him, dressed in all red.

The figure was cloaked in a long, flowing robe that covered his entire body, leaving only his piercing red eyes visible. His face was hidden behind a mask, but his presence alone was enough to send shivers down the spines of those who saw him.

The man with the golden hair spoke again, "Red, go to the north. There has been an anomaly." The figure in red nodded and disappeared without a sound.

The man with the golden hair chuckled to himself as he closed his eyes and went back into meditation.

"What have you planned for me this time?" he murmured, a sly grin playing across his features. Despite his seemingly infinite power, there was a sense of restlessness and boredom that seemed to underpin his every action. It was as if he was always seeking something more, something that would challenge him.

Han Cai absorbed the spirit stones in the medium-sized mine greedily. His exchange points kept rising by million, 1 billion, 2 billion, 5 billion, 10 billion, 50 billion, 100 billion , and 200 billion .. After 250 billion, the exchange points income started to slow down.

The beast outside mine felt the spirit Qi thinning, and they started to get restless. The panther was the one who was most restless.

Han Cai Immediately used exchange points and directly broke through the core formation level.

Han Cai felt a rush of exhilaration coursing through his veins as he broke through. He could feel the Celestial Liquid Qi in his Dantian solidifying, transforming into a more potent and stable form of energy. The sensation was both electrifying and terrifying, as he felt a surge of power that he had never experienced before.

Han Cai sat down and meditated, Even though the beast outside was going crazy trying to get inside the cave, Han Cai was calm because he knew he could leave whenever he wanted. He felt a deep sense of satisfaction and accomplishment as he focused on the transformation taking place in his body. All of the preparation, practise, and sacrifice had finally paid off. He hadn't done much aside from camping, eating, and sucking all the mines dry. Still, that was a lot of effort and sacrifice for lazy Han Cai. He was now one step closer to realising his ambition of becoming a powerful cultivator.

As he felt strong. Han Cai was ecstatic.

For a brief moment, he imagined himself fighting and defeating Superman. He realized right away that he was getting ahead of himself by comparing himself to the greatest sage under heaven.

He began lecturing himself to bring himself back to reality. This level of power was still insufficient. The more power you had, the more cautious you had to be.

He also reminded himself that just because he was powerful now didn't mean he could be complacent or take unnecessary risks, because the stakes would be high. It was the rule of the world that as you grew stronger, you drew stronger enemies.

Han Cai reminded himself that becoming a powerful cultivator was more than just gaining strength and power.

It was also about developing the wisdom, discipline, and humility required to wield that power responsibly and with compassion.

Then his final thoughts on lecturing himself were man I really can come up with a lot of bullsh*t while i reflect and even try to fool myself in pretending to be upright.

Han Cai looked outside, where the Panther was growling, waiting for Han Cai to come out so it could tear him apart in pieces. It was furious that the medium-sized mine it had guarded for thousands of years had now been sucked dry.

Han Cai smiled smugly.

He noticed he still had a lot of exchange points, he began improving his sword technique as well.

The second level of sword technique only cost him 160,000 exchange points.

The third level cost him 3,20,000 exchange points, but when he tried to upgrade to level four, he was asked for a billion.

Han Cai realized at level four that he could use absolute zero; this was a qualitative leap, and it's possible that's why the price skyrocketed.

Han Cai still upgraded the skill to level four, but when he went to upgrade it to level five, the system directly asked for 100 billion exchange points instead of asking for double the last amount.

Han Cai gave up. Level four was good enough at this level, he could fight a nascent soul cultivator. Han Cai looked at the panther, with an evil grin.

Han Cai came out of the mine.

Beasts tried to pounce on him the moment he appeared.

Han Cai immediately released celestial Qi, causing the beasts in the area to flee in fear and panic. Celestial Qi was more domineering energy than regular spirit Qi energy. They were terrified of it instinctively.

The panther, on the other hand, stood firm, growling at Han Cai while keeping a wary eye on his celestial Qi. Han Cai gave the panther a smug expression, which enraged it. Han Cai scanned the beast for 100,000 exchange points.

This was an extremely powerful beast. Han Cai would be shattered with a single swipe from it. Han Cai also noted that this beast had an IQ of 10, indicating that it was extremely intelligent. Its charm was out of this world. This was an incredible beast. The massive amount of shadow skills implied the beast was not to be trifled with not unless Han Cai wanted to transmigrate again.

Han Cai had no such plans. He had come prepared. How could he not? When he received such a large amount of exchange points from the mine.

After giving a cheeky smile, Han Cai vanished from sight. The panther realized Han Cai was attempting to get out of the valley. It immediately pounced on him, and it was determined not to let him get away.

Shadow Step was a technique utilised by the panther that allowed it to move quickly and silently through shadows, making it difficult for Han Cai to follow the movements of the panther.

However, Han Cai, who was now a Core Formation cultivator, was able to easily avoid the attack of the panther by disappearing and then reappearing behind it.

Because of Han Cai's heightened perception, the panther immediately turned around and attempted to use its Shadow Claw technique; however, Han Cai was able to avoid being attacked in advance, and he vanished once more.

The panther became even more enraged at Han Cai's taunting after he reappeared at a certain safe distance from it, and Han Cai maintained that distance between them.
