章 11: First Goon, Li Yuan
"But 5 times strength..."
Although he was offended, the boon was too much for him to reject. Me Feng rejoiced and despaired. It seems like I have no choice but to utilize this to its maximum potential!
"Who could make more foolish decisions than me!"
At last, instead of rejecting it, Me Feng embraced it! Feeling this sense of pride, Me Feng crossed his arms over his chest, satisfied with what he had done.
It's useless to cry over it. The boon was ridiculous anyway, so might as well do it!
"No matter how foolish I might be, in the end, I would be 5 times stronger than my peers. Hahahahah!"
Afterward, Me Feng looked at his status in satisfaction. He's ready to take on the world!
| Name: Me Feng
| Realm: 3rd Stage of Qi Refinement realm, Qi Gathering Phase.
| Spiritual Root: Low Seventh Grade
| Karma: 19,470
| Cultivation Technique: Sovereign Scripture: Endless Body Battles Stage 0 (+), Earth Scripture: Elephant Bodily Strength 0 (+), the Stance of the Snake Stage 3 (+), Sovereign Scripture: Everlasting Trance Stage 0 (Incomplete) (+).
| Talent: Maniac! (Purple) (+), Purple Lighting Eyes (Blue) (+), Flexible, Strong Bones (Green) (+).
| Items: A Mortal Aspect Elevator.
| Bond:
> Frozen Divine Hall's Seventh Elder, Chu Qing'er (Like)
> The Soaring Cloud Sect's Sect Master, Yu Minhe (Admiration)
> Divine Hall's Dream Pavillion's Ancestor, Su Mengli (Grudge)
Me Feng raised his eyebrows in surprise. He still has quite a lot of karma. He cupped his chin, thoughtlessly running over the interface with his eyes. It wasn't until he saw the talents that he slapped his thigh.
"Let's try it!"
He started from the cheapest one.
| Upgrade Flexible, Strong Bones (Green) for 10,000 Karma?
"That's quite a sum... But what about the rest?"
Me Feng had a bad feeling about this. His hand shook as the prompt appeared, showing the price to upgrade the blue one.
| Upgrade Purple Lighting Eyes (Blue) for 100,000 Karma?
His face was aghast. Does that mean he must pay over 1,000,000 Karma to upgrade the purple talent?
"Please be wrong myself, please don't come true my intuition!"
| Upgrade Maniac! (Purple) for 500,000 Karma?
"Thank god!"
It was still ridiculously expensive, but at least it hasn't reached the million mark yet. Me Feng slid down to his bed, with relief washed over his face.
As for his karma, it was not hard to decide.
"I should evolve the Stance of the Snake and upgrade my talent, or I could use the 10,000 to exchange for a boon."
"And maybe I could experiment with the 1,000 exchange afterward. Who knows what I could get?"
Excited to get another benefit, Me Feng decisively upgraded the Stance of the Snake.
| Upgrade the Stance of the Snake Stage 3 for 5,000 Karma?
"Do it!"
| The Stance of the Snake Stage 3 has evolved to the Thunderous Winged Snake Stage 0!
Thunderous Winged Snake! As Me Feng comprehended the imparted knowledge, he was shocked by the meaning of the technique! Thunderous is not related to thunder, and instead, it showcased just how fast the Winged Snake was, to the point where it could be regarded as thunderous!
If the Stance of the Snake limited its movement, preventing him from fighting freely, then the Winged Snake could move whatever it wanted, and its attack's power would not diminish!
His attacks would be thunderous, fast, sharp, versatile, and vicious! It was a very merciless fighting style!
"That's the greatest thing I've ever got out of 5,000!"
Me Feng reluctantly holds himself back from demonstrating the technique. He felt like if he practiced the technique in here, it wouldn't be a hole in the hut anymore. His hut could truly fly somewhere else.
Next, Me Feng kept glancing at the exchange prompt and the talent back and forth, his face was painted with confusion. Which one should he choose?
After recalling the past, he remembered something.
"I got the Flexible, Strong Bones from 10,000 exchange, right? So that means if I upgrade, it's equivalent to getting a Blue Talent out of 10,000!"
His face was washed with realization. Having this point of view, it was obvious which one was worth the most.
"Go my 10,000! Although we have to part ways, it's fine!"
| Flexible, Strong Bones (Green) has been upgraded to Unbreakable Bones (Blue)!
The effect was not direct, unlike his other techniques and talents. Simply, he would not have to worry about breaking his bones if he fought recklessly!
With that, his karma has been officially dry out. It only left behind a pitiful number of 4,470. He couldn't even upgrade the Earth Scripture!
| Upgrade Earth Scripture: Elephant Bodily Strength Stage 0 for 5,000 Karma?
| Upgrade the Thunderous Winged Snake Stage 0 for 5,000 Karma?
"Ugh, so vicious!"
Me Feng should've been satisfied, but man's greed could be atrocious sometimes. Even with the unbelievably strong foundation and insane progression in cultivation for just a day, Me Feng shamelessly wished for more.
Thus, he pwned the last 3,000 in the hope of getting something out of the exchange.
| You received 1 strand of grass!
| You received 1 strand of grass!
| You received a Mortal-grade Flying Sword!
"In the end, you truly scam me!"
Me Feng sneered. What equivalent exchange? Would you believe that 1,000 Karma is only worth a strand of grass?
| Reminder: Karma is versatile and ever-changing. At times, it could be equivalent to the worth of a world, sometimes, even a speck of dust would be bigger than karma.
"Fine!"
Feeling inwardly guilty for how greedy he was, Me Feng finally settled down with the flying sword. He checked out the sharpness, only for it to bend a little when he tried to puncture his finger.
Me Feng cursed out, "Damn it!"
Well, at least he could judge that his physique had far surpassed the durability of a Mortal-grade weapon.
After stabilizing his heart and his mind, Me Feng arose with a newfound confidence. Although he was still afraid of those saints, would those immortals concern themselves with a mere mortal like him?
Cruelly speaking, they could pinch him like an ant whenever they wanted. Besides, they have yet to find out who he was, lest knowing he had this so-called soul mark.
At worst, they'd interrogated him. Then he would spill out everything he knew. Inwardly, Me Feng felt this impending crisis.
Me Feng, my dear self, please hold back your diamond words in the future. Look, because of your thoughtless words, you offended an Immortal. And one more thing, you must find something that could erase this mark!
Satisfied with his own suggestion, he felt assured as he went out of the hut. The sun was still peaking from the east, shyly sharing its warmth with the world.
Me Feng finally could take a good look at his surroundings. Previously, Li Yuan destroyed his mood for sightseeing, so it was only now that he could enjoy it.
While a cultivation world was extremely cruel, mother nature was also ferocious. She did not hold back, creating landscapes so mesmerizing that it wouldn't be a surprise if the mortals worship it.
Me Feng saw a few disciples, minding their own business. He furrowed his eyebrows. Where is his dear goon? He needs a guide here.
"Guys, can you believe it? Li Yuan peeked at Lady Shi when she was bathing! And he actually dared to say that it was an accident! That he was searching for help to soothe his broken bone!"
"What bad luck. Even if you did want some help, ask the ladies in the Orchid Pavillion. Now, he had no place to run to, since he had offended that Gu Chen."
"What a foolish, lustful bastard! A pity though, that kid was amicable despite his status. Haah, why a kid like Gu Chen must exist... Such a dogshit luck to be the little brother of a Core Disciple!"
Me Feng was not focused on eavesdropping on them. It wasn't until he heard the name Li Yuan that he paused.
The more he listened to, the more he became furious. Damned goon! How could you be so shameless?!
"I haven't touched my bone for 20 years, yet to wanted to peek at women to relieve yourself?! Do you even have respect?!"
The fellow disciples were gossiping when they suddenly heard a scream. Shocked, they hastily turned around, wondering who was the creep who talked about his bone in public.
Their faces turned strange. Me Feng?
"Brother Feng, you didn't die?"
Again and again and again! Me Feng turned furious. Why do you guys keep cursing me?!
"Spare me your nonsense. Just tell me where Li Yuan is," Although he was furious, he had no intention of duking it out with these guys. Gotta make sure his goon is alright!
The disciples were startled, and they began to stare him down with disdain. One of them started to yap, "Are you questioning us? Me Feng, are you qualifi—"
His arrogance ceased immediately when Me Feng kicked him in between. The other disciples turned white as they watched the soulless disciple slowly fall. They even heard a crack!
A f*cking crack!
The furious Me Feng slowly turned around, gazing at them with solemnity, "I'm serious. Tell me where Li Yuan is, unless you want your bloodline to end here and there."
"Me Feng, you're ruthless!"
Me Feng started to get annoyed. Just what the hell is wrong with these guys? Just show me where Li Yuan is, and there will be no trouble. Why are you showing disdain? Do you want to boost your confidence and your delusional self-worth by looking down on someone?
Me Feng, no matter how sh*ty, disdained such an act.
"Look, just tell me where Li Yuan is. Spare me your fear and bullsh*t. I have no time for you," Not waiting for them to answer, he grappled one of them, a lanky, tanned boy with a cleanly shaved head.
Looking at this guy, Me Feng had the urge to kick his shiny head like a ball. Or maybe used it to bowl...
"Tell me where Li Yuan is."
The tanned face of the boy sweated, with fear plastered clearly on his face. Me Feng was truly speechless. I told you to spare your fear, but you still showed your fear. These guys have zero survival instinct, huh?
"H-He was in the Deathmatch Stage near the I-Inner Division, duking it out with Gu Chen..."
Me Feng ferociously glared at him. He was enraged! His aura exploded like a tsunami, overwhelming the disciples around. Even the disciples who mind their own business were shocked as they were hit by the wave of his pressure!
The tanned kid immediately fell to the ground, getting dumped by Me Feng. He started to piss himself, trembling all over.
"D-Damn... T-Those guys... They tricked me!!!"
Me Feng was a deadbeat? He was a weakling pushover? He was a man on his dying breath with wealth sent by his family?!
"Bullsh*t!!!!!!
As for Me Feng, he did not hold back. He snatched the scruff of the nearest disciple and asked her icily, "Where is the Deathmatch Stage?"
Thankfully, this female disciple was sensible, and despite being gripped by her own fear, she decisively said, "Just go down the groove, a-and near the wall that divides the divisions, you will see a c—circular building made for the stage."
Me Feng patted her shoulder before he shot off. Even his sheer jump caused a wind vacuum, sending the female disciple's hair all over the place. She was stunned for a moment.
"Who the hell is he? Do we have someone so powerful in the Outer Division...?"
He's like those mighty Foundation Establishment experts who could affect the plain just by a wave of their hands!
Me Feng was extremely quick. With the Thunderous Winged Snake incorporated into his movement, it did not take even a minute for him to arrive before the destination. He did not hesitate and started to run into the building.
"You're telling me that my goon that I've been working hard to convince himself to be a trustworthy subordinate would die just like that because of some useless piece of sh*t who could only hang on his big bro's d*ck to get laid? Don't f*ck with me!"
A couple of disciples, who looked like a pair of underlings, tried to block him from entering. Me Feng had given them a chance to spare themselves from otherworldly pain, which, unfortunately, they did not take.
After a couple of balls breaking later, Me Feng turned ice cold. He calmly walked into the massive building. The oval-shaped ceiling that spanned over thousands of meters was not covered, letting a huge amount of sunlight to get in.
There are many stages, obviously used for the disciples to spar. Me Feng looked at a certain area, with fences dozens of meters tall surrounding it. Inside, he saw his goon, being forcefully beaten up by a fat, greasy ugly bastard with a tight white robe.
The robe was big enough, but when that thing wore it, it became very tight. Me Feng also saw a couple of elders overseeing the fight, with a muscular young man calmly observing the situation beside them.
Me Feng's eyes filled with mockery. So this is a Core Disciple? Who let a bastard of a brother beat someone else just because he resisted against him when he asked for his wife?
He somewhat questioned the decision of the sect to enroll such a rotten man into the midst of them. Usually, this kind of person would betray the sect when it was in extreme peril.
"You dare to peek at my woman? You wanna die?!"
The fat bastard threw another punch to Li Yuan's bloody face. Me Feng was about to intervene. He's confident in his strength. He also couldn't watch the beating of his goon any longer.
But before he could interrupt the beating, his goon forcefully stood up and showed a proud smirk.
Me Feng widened his eyes.
"My Boss told me that a cultivator must follow his dao heart. It was what represented their whole struggle in the path of cultivation. I was doubtful in the past, but when I saw her again, I knew that she was one of the reasons why I wished to pursue the path of cultivation!"
"Your brother is like a heaven to me. So mighty and far, but my Boss said that a cultivator was meant to defy the heavens! We, cultivators cannot coexist with them! Same with how I cannot coexist with you!"
"It's fine if I die, but at least, I would not betray my own self. I would not betray my own dao heart!!!"
The Gu Brothers scoffed in mockery. All bark and no bites.
The pair of elders merely closed their eyes, pretending to not hear his words. After all, what can they expect from a dead man?
Li Yuan's heart seemed to achieve a special state. But the reality is cruel, and unlike Me Feng, he couldn't even reach the First Stage of the Heart. It barely changed the overall situation.
But for Me Feng, that is enough. He showed a genuine smile, like a father who was proud of his son.
"My goon, heaven cannot be easily impersonated. That rotten thing cannot be regarded as heaven. For a goon, you could only regard me as your heaven!"
Li Yuan's soul was shaken. He looked up in shock, noticing the visage of the legendary figure he hailed as his Boss.
"Boss!"
"And as for defying me?! Hah! If you have the abilities, as your heaven, you can defy me any time you want! I want to see whether you have the capability or not!" Me Feng landed on top of the fences with a proud laugh. He looked at the Gu Brothers and the pair of elders.
Finally, he could beat some rotten people like he used to!
