There's Something Wrong With This Account

Chapter 222, [Who Can Stop This] (Seeking Monthly Tickets!)

Translator: 549690339

The paper crane flew high in the sky, but Lu Xun didn’t hurry to the Three Thousand Mountains. Instead, he first visited the Treasury Pavilion in the Demon Sect Area.

He was planning to buy some items to scam… no, to benefit players and enhance their gaming experience!

It was Ji Li’s first time visiting the Treasury Pavilion, and she found it very fascinating.

“Do you know which powers stand behind the Treasury Pavilion?” Lu Xun asked Ji Li.

“I don’t know, but it feels so powerful that the Treasury Pavilion could spread across the whole continent!” Ji Li answered.

Lu Xun gave a smile, saying, “The Treasury Pavilion is jointly established by the Three Major Demon Sects and Four Major Righteous Sects.”

“Ah? Wouldn’t that mean it’s also our Demon Sect’s property?” Ji Li asked in surprise.

“Indeed.” Lu Xun nodded.

After listening to Lu Xun’s words, Ji Li’s attitude shifted from “The Treasury Pavilion is quite formidable” to “Our Demon Sect is indeed formidable”. She examined her surroundings with gleaming eyes.

Lu Xun told Ji Li, “I will be going to buy some things. You can look around first. If there’s something you wish to buy or need, tell me later.”

“Okay.” Ji Li nodded, looking very happy.

In his heart, Lu Xun mused, “As expected, a woman’s desire to shop is inexhaustible, shopping can naturally bring happiness to women.”

Lu Xun’s storage ring still contained the Spirit Stones recently given to him by his third senior brother. He was temporarily in a ‘big spender’ state, thus he spoke rather generously.

After presenting his Demon Sect Token, Lu Xun was led into a VIP room, served by a dedicated ‘shopping guide’ lady.

The lady, looking at Lu Xun with his bamboo hat on, became lost in his aura, imagining what his face would look like under the hat.

Lu Xun stated his purpose directly, interrupting the lady’s imagination, “I need some low-level spells.”

“Ah! His voice is also pleasant!” The lady’s heart was nearly melted.

Fortunately, she had kept her professional demeanor and asked, “The low-level spells range widely and are sold in great numbers. Could you describe roughly what type of spells you want? So I can help you select.”

She was brimming with enthusiasm, her service attitude was notably good.

Lu Xun nodded, then gave her a rough description.

The content was quite garish, and the requirements for the spell were also as extravagant.

In simple words, the skills he wanted to buy were those that looked fancy irrespective of their usefulness!

the ones that look good but aren?t actually useful.

He wasn’t buying these skills to enhance himself, but to teach these skills to the quirky players.

As more and more players joined the sect, their need for beginner skill tutors had reached an all-time low.

After all, the sect could satisfy this demand.

At this point, if Lu Xun wanted to continue harvesting Experience Points, he would need to explore a new path.

[Pink Ink] gave him inspiration!

For cultivators on the Heavenly Dust Continent, the practicality of the spell was undoubtedly the most important factor.

Quirky players, on the other hand, might not necessarily think so.

After all, one wouldn’t know how strong a spell is until it’s cast, but one could instantly judge whether a spell looks cool or not.

Therefore, players had a huge demand for ‘skins’, ‘fashion’, ‘special effects’, and other flamboyant features!

If there’s a demand in the market, he will satisfy it!

Given his understanding of the players, he didn’t believe that no one would want to learn these spells!

The reception hostess, listening to Lu Xun’s requests, was stupefied.

The sophisticated man in front of her wanted to buy spells that usually couldn’t find a buyer.

Who would want to devote a large amount of time and energy to learn spells that offer little practical effect?

Just to have a halo around them? Just to have air currents flowing around them?

And then be blown away by the superior cultivators with a single punch?

“Please wait for a moment, sir.” She proposed.

After a while, she handed Lu Xun a booklet and pointed out the pages where these spells are introduced.

Lu Xun was quite pleased with some of the skills described in the guide.

For instance, there was this one called [Heavenly Woman Scattering Flowers]. It was a movement skill. As for speed enhancement, it was almost negligible, an absolute disgrace in the world of movement skills.

However, when in use, it would leave behind images of red shadows, like glowing petals falling behind you.

Additionally, as it was a low-level skill, it didn’t consume much magic. It wouldn’t really drain much Spiritual Power.

“This is awesome!” Lu Xun thought to himself.

Imagine a female player in a long skirt walking around while quietly using this skill. The scene should be quite beautiful.

“Let’s cater to the needs of both male and female players. I’ll buy a few more since they’re cheap.” After selecting for a while, Lu Xun chose seven types of skills.

So why didn’t he choose practical and nice looking skills like [Pink Ink]?

Because they were expensive.

Purchasing these types of skills would increase Lu Xun’s initial costs. The Experience Points consumed by players when learning and upgrading would also be higher. This was something current players couldn’t afford.

Moreover, the more practical the skill, the more magic it consumed. With the players’ pitiful Spirituality Value, they would look cool only for three seconds.

What’s the use of that?

Could someone be thrilled for just three seconds?

This kind of impressive but impractical skill was particularly good and in keeping with the current market.

“Who could resist this?! I’d definitely learn it if I was playing the game!” Lu Xun thought to himself.

He felt that such skills would sell really well in the Three Thousand Mountain Area, and players there should also have a more substantial amount of Experience Points.

Because there were numerous sects, with many cultivators who, while not strong, could still have an easy time in the early stages.

The difficulty for players to join sects would be relatively low, and early tasks would also be easy to accept.

However, in the middle and late stages, various shortcomings would be exposed.

The most important thing was, trading these rubbish skills for the Experience Points of players in the Three Thousand Mountains gave Lu Xun no psychological burden.

If they were Demon Sect Players, they would all be his disciples, why waste Experience Points on these useless things? They should focus on leveling up, learning some practical skills!

And strive to be as handsome and strong as their Young Elder!

As for whether fooling players could learn such skills within their sect?

Currently, that was definitely not possible.

The players were still in the novice stage, the skills they were learning were all arranged by the sect, in other words, they were all mandatory courses, there were no elective courses.

And unless the sect master made a mistake, they certainly would not teach such skills.

This was simply misleading the younger generation!

Who would do something so despicable?!

Now, Lu Xun swiftly took out the Spirit Stones from his storage ring and received seven Skill Books in exchange. He spent a small amount of Experience Points and chose to learn them right away.

After leaving the quiet residence, he went to find Ji Li, who was happily browsing the Treasury Pavillion.

Seeing Lu Xun, Ji Li immediately ran over to him, and with each step, her ample bosom swayed, drawing attention toward herself once again.

Looking at her, Lu Xun asked, “See anything you like?”

Ji Li did not hesitate and shook her head, saying, “There’s nothing I need to buy, I don’t lack anything.”

“You don’t lack anything? You don’t even have a piece of decent equipment on you.” Lu Xun thought to himself.

He could tell that Ji Li had made up her mind not to buy anything.

The reason for her previous happiness, it seemed that Lu Xun had got it wrong.

She wasn’t happy because she had the opportunity to shop, but because Lu Xun told her, “See if there’s anything you like, I’ll buy it for you.”

For some people, a little sweetness could fill their entire heart.

A single sentence was enough.

Lu Xun looked at her and sighed in his heart, saying, “You just keep browsing, I forgot to pick something up earlier, I’m going to go back and get it.”
