Chapter 143: Terrorist Cursed Celebrity into Yeti, Claimed the Man Had Lubed Himself with Baby Oil And Approached Him.
Time Sage Nazzeck, the 8th chapter boss, was an annoying figure. Fu Tong was not ready to tackle a former sage at this moment.
However, the cauldron was another story. It was one of the necessary components to complete the Abyssal Star Bloodline, which was the strongest bloodline in the game universe.
Since Nazzeck wanted this, he might have already learned about its secret. The curse likely frightened Nazzeck, preventing him from collecting the object. He might be searching for a method to remove the curse at the moment.
Fu Tong coughed.
"Since the sage hasn't come to collect it, will you sell it to me?"
"You will definitely offend the sage, Young Immortal. Are you sure?"
"I'll handle the karma and the heat. Also, since your boss keeps the cauldron here for sale, he might be waiting for someone to take it away. So, I'll take it."
The elder gave Fu Tong a meaningful look and warned him.
"It isn't cheap. The sage has already paid in full. Since we're about to cancel his reservation, you'll have to pay the cancellation fee of 5,000 divine shards, including the price of the cauldron."
"How much in total?"
"15,000 divine shards, Young Immortal."
The amount seemed staggering for a cursed cauldron. However, Fu Tong had no issue with money. He fetched a dummy storage ring and transferred divine shards from his inventory into the ring.
Fu Tong passed the ring to the elder.
"Please count them. 15,000 divine shards."
The elder was taken aback. He received the ring and inspected the storage ring, counting the divine shards thrice. After confirming the payment, he sighed and touched the floor near the cauldron.
An anti-thief array below the cauldron was deactivated.
"I'll handle the cancellation process. This cauldron is yours."
"Thanks."
Fu Tong collected the cauldron for his inventory. However, he hadn't done yet.
Because Celestial Fox City lacked quality cauldrons, Fu Tong purchased 100 immortal-grade ones for his people. To promote alchemy, he planned to offer instruction in public workshops or an academy.
After making the purchase, Fu Tong exited the golden city dimension. Upon returning to the real city once again, he paused.
In front of him was a young man, who suppressed his cultivation to the quasi-immortal stage. However, his face, his presence, and his iconic black armor gave away his identity.
Xia Chen glanced at Fu Tong and ignored him. He proceeded to the pavilion.
Fu Tong glanced back. His hands trembled while he clutched a divine bomb in his sleeve pocket.
In that brief moment, Fu Tong's killing intent fluctuated. Xia Chen paused and put his hand on his storage ring, ready to eject a saint-grade spear and stab Fu Tong a thousand times. He also warned Fu Tong.
"Don't be an idiot. Well, you can try it, but you'll die, too."
Fu Tong exhaled deeply. After stabilizing his emotions, he suppressed his intrusive thoughts. He looked ahead and noticed another crowd of Xia Clan immortals following after their new lord.
Moreover, on top of buildings, hooded men glared at Fu Tong as though they had been watching him. One of them openly exuded killing intent and a faint aura of a saint.
Fu Tong glared back and spotted Xiao Shashen among the hooded men. Next to the assassins, his colleagues also leaked a similar aura.
'I'm outnumbered. They also might have divine shards. I have no chance here.'
Giving up on fighting Xia Chen, Fu Tong walked away. However, he ejected crystal sunflower petals from his inventory and gathered them into his sleeves, poisoning himself.
Xia Chen turned around and stared at Fu Tong. This time, it was his turn to be surprised. He clicked his tongue.
Fu Tong sneered even though he was poisoned by the sunflower petals.
'I know of your tricks, Xia Chen. You can't steal my skills that easily!'
Xia Chen could steal others' skills, cultivation, techniques, and memories, but only if four conditions were met. First, they must make eye contact. The target should also be a lower-level cultivator. The target also needs to be within 100 meters. To conclude, the target should be in a healthy state, unaffected by poisons or status ailments.
Fu Tong was aware that he had already fulfilled three of the conditions. By poisoning himself, Xia Chen's abilities failed before he could activate them.
Returning the favor, Fu Tong secretly opened his furry mod menu. He searched Xia Chen's name and turned him into a giant Yeti. Moreover, he stripped all of Xia Chen's overpowered gears with his clothing mod, leaving him naked.
Upon pressing the confirmation button, Xia Chen flinched. His clothes vanished. A second later, he morphed into a three-meter-tall Yeti with white fur.
The sudden appearance of the Yeti caused an alarm.
"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO ME?!" Xia Chen screamed. However, he only made unintelligible noises.
Xiao Shashen and the assassins on the roof stopped looking at Fu Tong and turned to Xia Chen because of the commotion.
Fu Tong saw his chance. He released the divine bomb in his sleeve pocket and disappeared from the real world, entering his private dimensional farm.
A second later, the tampered divine shard unleashed its power, which karma coins couldn't do. The cross brightened and engulfed the entire city.
-
Upon returning to the farm world, Fu Tong took a break. It was about time for him to use another function of the farm dimension world.
The Portal Feature.
When Fu Tong left the dimension farm world, he could choose the destination where he would reemerge in the real world. So far, he had been using the default setup to avoid complications and fees.
He glanced at the exit button and the destination panel.
Saved Locations
- Sleipnir Field City (Free)
- Divine Cloud Sect (3 Merit Coin)
- Celestial Fox City (3 Merit Coins)
- Forbidden Dragonewt Lair (7 Merit Coins)
The fee was based on the distance, and it was expensive. Fu Tong had never paid a dime for the teleportation feature. However, this time, it would come in handy.
Fu Tong crossed his arms and pondered. He managed to drop the divine bomb, but he was not confident that Xia Chen and the entire city would perish by just one divine shard.
The Sleipnir Field City was protected by array experts. In his modded game and the stolen version of the game company, the city was immune to the divine bombs because of its arrays. Every bomb fizzled after activation.
Still, it was enough to mess up the crowd. The light from the bomb was potent enough to blind those who overly relied on their eyes, especially Xia Chen's eyes.
"I hope you die, Xia Chen."
