Ch. 97 - The Blood Wolf Demon

[Ingredients not found in backpack. Spend 60,000 to purchase raw materials?]

Ye Chuan was stunned, seeing the price of the Rejuvenation Pill ingredients.

The Deer Blood Pill ingredients only cost six thousand, right? Why did the Rejuvenation Pill cost ten times more?

Seriously, seeing that he had money, they were trying to rip him off, weren't they?

This wouldn't do!

He carefully examined the ingredients list and finally noticed that the Deer Blood Pill was an Ordinary-grade pill, while the Rejuvenation Pill was a Low-Grade pill, a whole rank higher.

"I thought the Rejuvenation Pill was the same grade as the Deer Blood Pill." Realizing this, Ye Chuan stopped complaining.

Expensive things had their reasons.

At least the Rejuvenation Pill could be sold for much more than sixty thousand.

Ye Chuan glanced at the refining probability. Seeing that it was 99%, he nodded in satisfaction. At least upgrading the pill furnace hadn't been a waste.

[Pill refining in progress. Time remaining: 47 hours 59 minutes]

[Spend 3000 to accelerate?]

No.

Definitely no.

Ye Chuan didn't want to be ripped off by the app anymore. It was just two days; he wasn't in a hurry. 

He already had one pill, which he could give to Mother Luo.

After resting for a while, Ye Chuan decided to go on an adventure.

[1. Tianxuan Continent]

[2. Aether Continent (Locked)]

The Aether Continent option had appeared after Lilith arrived, but since she hadn't moved in yet, he couldn't choose it.

[Balance has reached the required amount. Spend 1,000,000 to unlock Holographic Adventure?]

[Holographic Adventure allows you to personally experience the adventure with zero risk of death.]

Oh?

Ye Chuan raised an eyebrow in surprise. Did this mean he could actually enter the adventure world instead of just reading text?

If that was the case, would he be able to unlock the feature to take Bai Qianshuang back to the Tianxuan Continent in the future?

He glanced at the price.

One million!

He had just earned 1.2 million.

Perfect, earn money from the system, spend money on the system, nothing left for himself.

Soon, the familiar pop-up window appeared.

[Limited-time offer: 888,888

Countdown: 7 hours 59 minutes]

Ye Chuan: "..."

Ye Chuan pressed "Decline" without hesitation.

"I love saying NO to presumptuous systems," Ye Chuan said, making a peace sign, a smug look on his face.

He hadn't even had time to enjoy his money!

After he declined, the pop-up window disappeared, along with the option to purchase Holographic Adventure.

Ye Chuan exited the page and re-entered it.

The option was indeed gone.

"Acting like a child? Not selling it to me now?" Ye Chuan twitched his lips, but knowing the system, it would eventually offer him good things again.

He didn't dwell on it and started a regular adventure in the Tianxuan Continent.

He chose a regular adventure instead of the sweep. He had some free time, might as well play.

[You appear in a cave in the Eastern Hua Divine Continent of the Tianxuan Continent. The cave is filled with pools of blood and mangled corpses, a gruesome sight. You see a familiar Foundation Establishment wolf demon. It looks terrified upon seeing you. "You again?!!!" You choose to…]

[1. Challenge the wolf demon]

[2. Turn and run]

"You again?" Ye Chuan had lost count of how many times he had said that. It seemed he and this wolf were fated to meet.

He had no mercy for this creature that had killed him several times and immediately chose to challenge it!

[You choose to challenge the wolf demon. Your Foundation Establishment strength is comparable to its, but your Chaotic Indestructible Body's powerful regenerative ability gives you a significant advantage.]

["What kind of monster are you?!" The wolf demon curses and tries to escape, but you summon your One Qi Avatar to block its path. The one-on-one duel turns into a righteous beatdown.]

[Unable to withstand your combined assault, the wolf demon surrenders. You choose to…]

[1. Kill it]

[2. Spare its life]

Kill it?

Spare it?

Ye Chuan grinned. Oh, what a difficult choice.

Should he kill it, or kill it, or maybe just kill it?

["I hate you! I've devoured blood for centuries, only to die at your hands!" The wolf demon dies unwillingly. Convert into clone?]

[Conversion successful.]

[Clone: Blood Wolf Demon

Realm: Early Foundation Establishment]

[You defeated the wolf demon and found a large amount of loot. Day 1 ends. Items retrieved: 16]

It was over?

Ye Chuan hadn't expected the adventure to end after defeating the wolf demon. Perhaps it was considered a mini-boss?

He opened his backpack and glanced at the contents. The loot was quite substantial.

Spirit stones, medicinal herbs, a cultivation technique…

He could give the spirit stones to Bai Qianshuang or use them as currency; they were valuable either way. As for the medicinal herbs, he could use them for alchemy, saving him some money.

He glanced at the cultivation technique; it was a demonic cultivation method.

[Item: Blood Manual

Learn to master the Blood Manual. Gain strength by devouring blood.]

Useless.

But Ye Chuan realized that cultivation techniques, like constitutions and spiritual roots, could be synthesized. 

So he could synthesize higher-level techniques by collecting more manuals.

He'd keep it for now.

After organizing his backpack, Ye Chuan decided to summon the wolf demon.

He extended his hand, and a black energy, the power of chaos that could devour everything, enveloped the floor.

Soon, a three-meter-tall giant wolf appeared before Ye Chuan.

Its fur was reddish-black, its muscles lean and wiry, giving it a dangerous aura. Its claws, dozens of centimeters long, gleamed sharply.

Ye Chuan could clearly sense its power; it was indeed at the Foundation Establishment realm.

But weaker than him.

Just an ant.

"So this is the wolf demon that killed me several times?" Ye Chuan looked up at the three-meter-tall wolf and chuckled. "You're too tall, kneel."

"Yes," the wolf demon said in a deep voice and knelt before Ye Chuan.

Even kneeling, it was still eye-level with him.

"I killed you, any thoughts?" Ye Chuan asked, seeing the wolf demon's obedience.

After being converted into a clone, the wolf demon's intelligence seemed limited. Its eyes were blank for a moment, then it said respectfully,

"Master, well done."

Ye Chuan smirked. He also noticed that his spiritual energy was being consumed; summoning a clone required spiritual energy to maintain.

"Not bad," Ye Chuan said, remembering how many times this wolf demon had killed him.

"Now, go dance on a pole for me."
