Chapter 24: CH 24

C24 – A Bowman and His Deadly Weapon

“Creak –”

Liu Yuan closed the door and leaned his back against it.

“Phew…”

In a daze, he rubbed his cheek where the woman kissed, letting out a long sigh.

After a while, Liu Yuan walked inside, untied his sword and sat down on the stool. He looked worn out, murmuring, “Damn it, what bad luck! I spent hours cheering a girl up on the very first night of my transmigration here; I was caught red-handed when I was sneaking around at midnight; and I almost got killed the next day. I feel like I have to stay alert all the time. What a dangerous world I’m living in anyway?!”

Liu Yuan shook his head and poured himself a cup of tea. After drinking a few mouthfuls, he finally regained his balance. He smacked his lips, “This is only the beginning. Seems like I’m too busy with my business. Maybe I should just keep things simple and enjoy myself, say, with my beautiful girlfriends?”

But of course he knew it was impossible.

Perhaps all the other characters he had dealt with before in the game were looking for him as well, just like Ning Xiangrong. If he did not get well-prepared, he might end up with a tragic death.

By then, a majority of the forces in the Middle Continent, good or evil, would be hunting him down.

“That can’t be good. I’d better hurry and improve my strength as soon as possible.”

Liu Yuan went onto his bed and made sure to place his sword next to his pillow, just in case of any unexpected situation.

It was not yet dark outside, so he sat cross-legged and started to check the gains in his storage bag.

As the chief disciple of Water Moon Dock, Yue Longzhang was quite well-off. Liu Yuan was exhilarated by this windfall.

There were a total of five bottles of pills: two bottles of healing pills and two bottles of Qi replenishing pills, with ten tablets in each bottle; and one bottle of a pill for helping break through the Foundation Establishment Stage. Apart from the pills, there were also some herbs and other materials.

“Hmm, not bad. These pills are enough for now.”

Liu Yuan then activated his spiritual sense to check the rest of the materials. Suddenly, he was stunned. He fished out a piece of white jade as flawless as the moonlight.

“Mirror Moon Jade!”

Liu Yuan would have screamed out loud if no one was living next door.

The Mirror Moon Jade was one of the four materials needed for the True Yang Golden Crow to hatch.

“That was easier than I thought!” Liu Yuan put the jade back and flipped through the storage bag. There was nothing else special.

Yue Longzhang was out on a long journey, and naturally he wouldn’t have brought too many things on him, so there weren’t many useful materials in his storage bag.

There was a cultivation technique manual of Water Moon Dock, the manual for a sword technique called Crossing Karma Sword, together with a longsword.

These were the regular rewards that a character at Yue Longzhang’s level would offer.

Then the Mirror Moon Jade was probably some random reward given by the game system.

Liu Yuan picked up the sword and carefully examined it for a while, stretching out his fingers to flick it. The clank of the sword sounded melodious. “Wow! This must be an excellent sword. I am really lucky!”

This was actually a purple-grade weapon named the Flying Star Sword. It was definitely a treasure.

“Now I don’t have to worry about weapons.”

Satisfied, Liu Yuan put the Flying Star Sword back into the storage bag. It was enough for him to cultivate from the Foundation Establishment Stage to the Core Formation Stage.

But he would keep a low profile and still carry his old sword around in his daily life.

Besides, he wouldn’t need this sword for long, because the main weapon Liu Yuan used in the game was not the sword, but the bow.

Yes, he was a bowman.

“The sword is so easy to operate that I almost forget I am a bowman. Ha!”

Although Liu Yuan was not really a professional player, he certainly had sufficient ability to be able to conquer a six-star character.

He was never a man who fell short in words or actions.

Without sufficient strength, one wouldn’t even be able to enter this place, let alone conquering it.

Liu Yuan was among the top in the ranking of players, and he had excellent combat strength as well.

The reason why he had learned many sword techniques was that he had obtained an epic weapon.

[Sword in Box – Killing Heart and Evil Gall]

This weapon was quite tricky. It was obviously a sword, but it was categorized as a bow. Liu Yuan was dumbfounded when he first obtained it.

And he was even more shocked when he learned how to use it. This was a sword alright, but it attacked in the same way as a bow: one flicked the sword with his fingers, and the sound made by the sword could kill like an arrow.

To be specific, the killing sound could pierce through the enemies’ ears to their brains, disturbing their minds, causing them to kill each other, and eventually making their heads explode.

Well, this was surely a lethal bow.

This was one of the ten legendary evil weapons in the game, and also one of the main weapons of Liu Yuan in the later period.

“Speaking of which, I kind of miss it. It is a real divine, powerful weapon, very deadly, and it has also helped me become a sword cultivator.”

And then Liu Yuan couldn’t help but feel sorry for it, realizing that the divine weapon was probably lying idle in Heavenly Treasure Pavilion now, as an ordinary sword.

“I will wait till I reach the Core Formation Stage before going to get the weapon. There should still be some time left.”

Liu Yuan found it necessary to get himself a real handy weapon.

He put down the storage bag. Other than what had been mentioned earlier, there were also nearly 300 Spirit Stones, enough to make Liu Yuan a rich man overnight.

The monetary system in Upper Central worked like this:

There were four types of currency: copper, silver, gold, and spirit stone.

Copper and silver could be obtained by completing quests and tasks, and gold could either be bought or be exchanged with copper and silver.

The exchange rate was: 10,000 copper = 100 silver = 1 gold, which seemed quite reasonable to the players.

At least they didn’t necessarily have to spend too much money on the game.

As for the spirit stone, an advanced kind of currency, it had to be produced with specific minerals and could not be exchanged with other ordinary kinds of currency. Therefore, players had to work very hard to generate spirit stones.

And Liu Yuan got 300 Spirit Stones for free, which was about the one-month output of a first rank cultivator.

Yue Longzhang had basically brought almost all of his savings. What on earth was he going to do?

Whatever. They were all Liu Yuan’s now.

And he didn’t really bother to care about anything else.

“Wonderful. Now I’m going to cultivate.”

Liu Yuan grinned as he took out one of the paintings he got from Xie Qian and hung it over the bed. Then he started the cultivation by visualizing the technique manual.

One good thing about a beginner’s cultivation was that it was really easy with detailed instructions for each step.

The majestic view of mountains and rivers in the painting instantly appeared in his mind, together with the principles of the universe that were hidden within, which seemed barely comprehensible at first sight. Liu Yuan was absorbed in the process.

Calming his mind and concentrating on the painting, he felt the Spiritual Energy flowing within his body became more and more active…

The next day.

Liu Yuan woke up and was glad to find that he had already broken through to the third level of the Qi Refinement Stage.

“Hmm… Last time I successfully drew Qi overnight. Now I have broken through two levels overnight. This Double Experience Scroll works just fine.”

Liu Yuan put away the scroll. The Experience Scroll was indeed effective, but there was something different from the game…

The scroll was not a one-off tool.

Although the actual effect might gradually decrease each time, it was still much better than those one-off tools in the game.

Liu Yuan stood up and stretched his body. He felt like he could really use a massage.

“Rat-a-tat-tat.”

Someone was knocking on the door, followed by the voice of the manor guard.

“Mr. Liu, do you have a minute? Our master would like to see you in the front hall.”
