Kapitel 4: Transformation pill
"003 is there any way to check where Xi Wei is now?" He hopes that Xi Wei isn't still in the Mystic Realm, otherwise his revenge won't be possible for another 500 years...
[Dear Host, would like to use your points to exchange for a useful item?]
"What are points?" Does the system have a hidden function?
[When Host completes a mission assigned by the system, points are rewarded. Points can be used to purchase items from the system's store. 003 advises Host to use points sparingly, for if Host's point count reaches zero, the system will self destruct along with the Host's soul. Failure to complete missions are also punished by deduction of points.]
"003, these missions, when will I be receiving them?"
[003 will notify Host when a mission unlocks itself. The rest of the time, Host is free to do as he pleases.]
Hearing this, Su Yang relaxes. As long as he can move around freely, missions or whatever are all good. Now that he has a human body and is no longer rooted in one place, naturally he would take advantage of this and have some fun.
"003 are there any items that can help me locate Xi Wei?"
A screen showed up in front of Su Yang, displaying 3D holograms of the items as well as their descriptions.
003 wanting to display its usefulness, enthusiastically provided the pro and cons of each product. Su Yang attentively listens to 003 while swiping the screen.
Su Yang so far has a total of 100 points, and from the prices of the items he had viewed, he realizes that this amount is quite pitiful. In the end, he bought one of the cheaper items, a small crystal ball that allows the user to look at the location of their target three times.
Activating the crystal ball with 003's instruction, the ball trembled once in his palm, a thin fine crack appearing on its surface before showing a clear image. In the image was Xi Wei.
Any random plant from the mystic realm can be considered a rarity that sells for a hefty sum, so the wound on his stomach was nearly healed, and his complexion although still pale, was no longer sickly. Walking in at a quick pace, he appears to be going somewhere in a hurry.
From the crystal ball, Su Yang can see that the surrounding was a desolate wasteland with nothing but a rocky terrain in sight. A dark and gloomy aura also shrouds the surrounding, making a person feel cold and eerie.
Xi Wei continues to travel until he reaches what seems to be the border of this gloomy wasteland. An unnatural film of mist covers it, stretching as far as the eyes can see, never spreading any further yet never fading away either. Xi Wei steps into the mist and the crystal ball went blank just as Su Yang saw Xi Wei's figure disappearing completely into the mist.
Although Su Yang had no idea where Xi Wei was just now, the body's original owner was very clear on where this place is. Almost all cultivators know what the border to the demonic realm looks like, even if they have never been there before.
Taking this chance to improve increase it's host's favorable impression of it, 003 helpfully explained the relationships between righteous cultivators and demonic cultivators.
[The previous demon lord and the previous sect leader of Peerless Heaven sect died under each other's hand. This resulted in the enmity between both sides to intensify and whenever a demonic cultivator meets a righteous cultivator, it's an ugly "til one of us perish" kind of situation.]
The previous sect leader was naturally Su Yang's grandfather, but he had already passed on when Su Yang was born. Even though the original Su Yang had no attachment to this grandfather he had never met, he still considered the demonic cultivators as foes.
"Isn't Xi Wei a righteous cultivator?" Isn't it very dangerous for him to be in the demonic realm? Given how he was still half dead the other day, he still has the guts to barge into enemy territory?? What if he dies before he takes his revenge?
Running out the room, Su Yang head towards the stairs that led to the bottom of the mountain. On his way there, he bumped into Bei Ling who asked where he was going to.
"Ling Shidi, I'm going to be gone for a few days. I'll have to trouble you to take care of the other junior brothers when I'm not around." Su Yang gave an apologetic smile before rushing past him.
After Su Yang left, Bei Ling was still standing in the same spot, stupefied. Was that Yang ShiXiong...? For someone like Yang Shixiong, the number of times he had seen him smile can be counted on one hand. Yet just now, Yang Shixiong had given him such a gentle smile...Ah, Yang Shixiong really good when he smiles! He should smile more!
Su Yang spent a long time getting to the bottom of the mountain. The stairs were so long that he had really thought it would go on forever. According to 003, the demonic realm's border is actually not far from the sect but walking there would still be a considerable distance. Su Yang unsheathed the sword he had hanging by his side. When the original Su Yang had turned 15, he had pulled out this snow white blade from the sect's sword mountain and named it WuQing. Like it's owner's temperament, the sword's snow white blade gives off a chilling cold aura that oppresses people. Mounting the sword, Su Yang tried his best to fly through the air with it. Even with the original's memories, it still took him a few tries to ride the sword in a way that doesn't damage his elegant and noble image.
On the way to the border, Su Yang had bought a transformation pill from the system's store. Originally he had wanted to use a mid-grade transformation pill that he had found in the original's storage pouch, but 003 told him that if they encountered someone with a higher cultivation base than him, the disguise would be useless. Su Yang's cultivation is already extremely impressive for his age but he understands that the world is a dangerous place. There are definitely demonic cultivators more powerful than him, not to mention demons who have lived for hundreds and thousands of years.
The transformation pill bought from the system will ensure that his disguise remains undetectable even when faced with someone with a higher cultivation than him. The only flaws about it are that he can't choose to deactivate the pill once he eats it. The pill's effect lasts for a week and he can only wait for the pill's effect to naturally disappear by itself.
Before long, Su Yang reached the demonic border and he stopped when he saw the hazy mist that Xi Wei had passed through. Getting off from his sword, Su Yang ate the pill and waited for it to take effect. His body tingled as he felt it shrink considerably and on his forehead was a stinging, burning sensation.
With no mirrors around to check his appearance, Su Yang lifted his sword up to see his reflection. His disguise took on the form of a tree demon and since tree demons normally have youthful appearances, he looks like a child no older than ten. With his shrunken body, the clothes he had been wearing fell onto the ground in a pile, but, thankfully the transformation had also provided him with a set of dark green robe that he was already dressed neatly in. On his small and tender forehead was a unique vibrant red mark. Over the course of the week, the red mark will slowly fade, bit by bit, and when it was completely gone, Su Yang's body will revert back to normal.
When he had finished looking at his appearance and was about to put his sword back into its sheath, it suddenly turned into a twig and its sheath was turned into... a sheath for the twig??
"..." Su Yang was speechless. How is he suppose to fight with a twig? Throw it at the demonic cultivators and hope they will chase it?? In frustration, he swung the twig above his head and the ground not far away from him split to form a deep crack.
