Chapter 416: 416, [Want to know about ostentatious wealth?]
So far, more than half a month has passed since the first invasion of the foreign races.
The Heavenly Dust Continent was temporarily peaceful, and those severely damaged sects were also recuperating.
Logically speaking, the second invasion of the foreign races should have started long ago. The progress in this life greatly deviates from Lu Xun’s memory of his past life.
However, generally speaking, it should be a blessing for the Heavenly Dust Continent.
Because the foreign races were well-prepared, having prepared for who knows how many years. On the other hand, the people of Heavenly Dust Continent can take this opportunity to make more preparations, so that they can stand a better chance when the second invasion comes.
At this moment, Lu Xun was riding on a paper crane, taking the two girls to the nearest Treasury Pavillion.
He wanted to buy some skill books and buy {equipment} for the two girls along the way.
On the way, they coincidentally encountered more than twenty low-ranking foreign races who were alone.
Then, they were surrounded by Lu Xun.
The thoughtful Lu Xun even deliberately left four of the foreign races for the two girls to gain experience and practice their skills. He simply swept his sleeve and performed {Mist Sword} in front of them.
The mist spread out in all directions. Wherever the mist spread, immediately burst open a bloody flower one after another.
– Viewing flowers in the mist.
One after another, the foreign races directly burst open!
It was not until then that the two girls realized just how powerful this seemingly beautiful mist was.
After returning to the paper crane, Lu Xun opened the {Contribution Points Ranking} and took a glance.
He found that the two girls had actually made it onto the leaderboard, even though they were at the bottom.
The {Contribution Points Ranking} only shows the top five thousand from the entire Heavenly Dust Continent.
It seemed like a lot of spots, but in reality, the base was too large, whether it was cultivators or players.
Just the players alone added up to more than fifty million, and there was a steady stream of new players pouring in, which was particularly terrifying.
Therefore, to be able to make it onto the leaderboard is already quite an honor.
The reason why Lu Xun checks the leaderboard from time to time is to see if the contribution points of those on the leaderboard are increasing.
The answer is that they are increasing.
This means that the remaining foreign races are being continuously exterminated!
As it turns out, with so many players scattered throughout the Heavenly Dust Continent, it’s not easy for the foreign races to hide.
After all, their glaring red names are just too conspicuous.
Not to mention pulling out their swords at the drop of a hat, they don’t even bother to greet you before they raise their swords and hack at you as soon as they spot you in a crowd.
Lu Xun could guess that the foreign races must be filled with grudges in their hearts.
“Why can these people see through our identities at a glance? Why don’t they verify it?”
“We are indeed enemies, but your determination to hack at me makes me feel like a failure at disguising!”
In fact, the actions of the players have indeed attracted the attention of the cultivators of the Heavenly Dust Continent.
But the fact is, players have never struck the wrong person. After these people die, the power within their bodies doesn’t nourish the heaven and earth, which is the best proof!
——They are killing the foreign races!
Therefore, the cultivators understood one thing: Anomalies seem to be able to see through all the disguises of the foreign races!
This is very amazing and can bring great benefits!
So why wait any longer? Just start hacking!
“Now, the smarter sects should understand who the best tool is, right?” Lu Xun smiled slightly.
Now, whenever he opens the forum, he can always see a lot of players posting about encircling and hunting down the foreign races.
Just this morning, a group battle broke out in the Southern Territory.
Nearly two hundred foreign races were hiding in the Uncold Forest, and then they were discovered by the players.
It was also amusing. The foreign races were actually hiding behind a waterfall.
There was a water curtain cave-like existence behind the waterfall. It’s unknown how the foreign races found it.
As for why the foolish player could discover this place… Is it strange for a foolish player to charge a waterfall with a magical weapon under his feet?
This isn’t their regular operation…
After browsing through the entire process of the event on the forum, Lu Xun found that in the beginning, it was just two players who found it thrilling to ride the flying swords into the waterfall.
If they crashed to death, they would just have to resurrect one less time, they don’t care.
The thrill is what they’re after!
As a result, besides water, there was also a cave inside! They plunged directly into the cave!
After they plunged into it, more than two hundred foreign races stood up all together.
The two players were killed on the spot——then resurrected on the spot——then killed again——resurrected on the spot again… until they ran out of resurrection opportunities and were forced to go offline.
Lu Xun could guess what the foreign races were thinking when he saw this: “Haha! Although it’s a bit harder to kill, we have successfully silenced them. This stronghold is safe!”
But then, just a few minutes later, they were surrounded by more than a thousand players…
After the two players went offline, they called for revenge in their guild group.
Situations like this are happening frequently all over the Heavenly Dust Continent.
Foreign Races: “It’s so hard, dear!”
“It’s going to get harder for you!” Lu Xun said in his heart.
…
…
After browsing through the more popular posts of the day, Lu Xun closed the forum.
The Treasury Pavillion wasn’t far away now.
While controlling the paper crane, Lu Xun asked, “Have you been to the Treasury Pavillion before?”
The two girls nodded.
They had window-shopped there before, but owing to their poverty, they hadn’t bought anything.
After all, cheap things are often useless, and useful things are a little more expensive.
But to some women, if they don’t buy anything they can still be very happy just with window shopping…
In short, they just simply love shopping!
Things have changed now from way back when. At first, there were not many players seen in the Treasury Pavillion. But now, players have made it their trading platform within “Heavenly Dust”, fervently buying and selling here.
At the entrance, Lu Xun immediately showed his Demon Sect Token and immediately enjoyed VIP treatment. They were led to a quiet courtyard.
The two women glanced at each other, once again appreciating the significance of being a part of the Purple Palace.
The secret that “The Treasury Pavillion was actually opened jointly by the Seven Great Sects” was not yet known to the players. Therefore, they do not know that Lu Xun also owns the Treasury Pavillion.
Lu Xun had some of them wait outside where there were a few Magical Weapon booklets to read. He himself went inside the building, prepared to sell some things first.
He definitely needed to sell the Superior Ghost Pearl. It was completely useless to him. There were still some odds and ends in his storage ring that would fetch a bit of money, so he planned to sell them together.
In the end, Lu Xun got more than 30,000 spirit stones.
He still had over 60,000 spirit stones in his storage ring, which he got from his Third Senior Brother along the way.
Reality has proven that entrepreneurship doesn’t pay as well as just getting an allowance at home….
“A hundred thousand spirit stones is a fortune in itself!” Lu Xun thought to himself.
Of course, for his Third Senior Brother, Zhuge Lai Fu, a hundred thousand spirit stones might be just a drop in the bucket.
Lu Xun looked at the girl who was serving him. He smiled warmly and said, “Bring me the book of techniques. I want to see.”
The receptionist looked at Lu Xun’s face and only felt dizzy. She had a feeling of springtime arriving with the sunshine and flowers blooming.
The fatigue of continuous work vanished in an instant!
If every customer was this handsome, she wouldn’t mind dying on the front counter!
After being stunned for more than ten seconds, she finally blushed, got up and went to the back to get the book.
After receiving the book, Lu Xun started browsing through it as if nobody else was around. The book logged all the [Skill Books] that were currently on sale in the Treasury Pavillion, and he planned to pick some to teach the players.
If this is West State, [Sword Skill] is definitely the first choice.
Indeed, the Treasury Pavillion of West State is dominated by the [Sword Skill Books].
“Pick a few Blue Level ones and some Superior Yellow Level ones,” Lu Xun thought to himself.
This time, he didn’t plan to use the White Emperor’s identity to claim experience points, but to appear in real person.
Having no choice since he now carried a buff. The Sword Cultivators in West State would immediately get a 5% boost as soon as they approach him, which could otherwise reveal his identity.
Previously using the White Emperor as an alias to teach lower-end skills and only taking on low-end business was not suitable for him to appear in person.
But now it’s different with more grown players.
As long as the skills taught aren’t too low-end, it won’t seem cheap.
But Lu Xun had a sharper eye now than ever before. He could always pick out the best value-for-money skills from a pile.
This is also a way to enhance the class.
Among the skills of the same level, the ones I teach are the most practical, and mine are more sought after!
“In theory, the lower Blue Level is enough, but this intermediate Blue Level [Thousand Autumns], is really good,” Lu Xun thought about it and decided to buy it too.
Although it was a bit expensive, and the target audience was limited with ordinary players not being able to afford it. But it can be taught to Lu Xiaoyu and Xiao Long Bao, and can also be a benefit for professional players.
“The most important thing is to elevate the ego!” Lu Xun muttered to himself.
Money is a small matter. Just eat a few more dishes cooked by the Third Senior Brother, and won’t that be enough?
Just a bunch of digits!
“But, the food cooked by the Third Senior Brother, damn it, really tastes bad!” Lu Xun couldn’t help but complain to himself.
In the end, Lu Xun bought one Blue Level Intermediate, three Blue Level Lower, and six Superior Yellow Level.
This spent nearly 70,000 spirit stones.
Despite the calm face when he paid in front of the hostess, his heart was aching slightly.
After paying, the hostess went to fetch the [Skill Books], and Lu Xun sat back down, releasing his Divine Sense to observe the two women in the courtyard.
His Divine Sense casually swept over Xiao Long Bao, but mainly stopped on Lu Xiaoyu.
Lu Xiaoyu was flipping through the Magical Weapon booklets and stopped at a Blue Level Intermediate white jade bracelet.
This was a defensive Magical Weapon. It was pretty good value-for-money, and the design was also very beautiful.
This bracelet was called [Gu Rabbit].
It was said that the lunar yin in the moon accumulated to form a rabbit shape, which was called Gu Rabbit. This is also an alias for the moon.
“Looks like she likes it, right?” thought Lu Xun.
