Using entries to cultivate immortality in chaotic times-Chapter 731 - 247: Then, Let’s Start Betting!
Chapter 731 -247: Then, Let’s Start Betting!
Two hours later.
Chen Qiu had already arrived at the Heavenly Hall, which was now teeming with people as many gathered here.
The “Heavenly Hall” itself housed numerous Heavenly Dao Buildings, and on normal days, many would gather here seeking opportunities. However, a few days ago, Chen Qiu had single-handedly slain dozens of Void Refining Cultivators here, causing a period when no one dared to approach the Heavenly Hall.
As time passed, the place had regained its liveliness.
“…”
Chen Qiu did not disguise himself or wear a veil, so… the moment he landed, some passersby who saw him unintentionally were momentarily stunned before their bodies froze, and then they turned and ran.
For a moment,
it seemed the crowd around had almost entirely scattered.
Respecting the powerful is everyone’s nature, or rather, it’s more about fearing death than respecting the mighty.
Especially true for a madman who had just broken through to Void Refining and killed dozens of his kind, not to mention created the first-ever twelve-grade external incarnation in the history of the Vast Continent. It was wise to stay away; getting close might not be beneficial, and if one were to accidentally offend this madman, it could cost them their life.
After all, this gentleman didn’t seem like someone who would reason with you.
Chen Qiu did not care about the surroundings and simply strode towards the entry prize pool with an indifferent expression, now solely looking forward to his first Heavenly Dao Term Group “Big Yao Nine”.
Everything else could wait.
…
A hundred breaths later.
Chen Qiu followed the flagstone path to a shop whose doors were wide open, with a familiar wooden plaque hanging above that read “One thought controls all”.
At the entrance were still the six wells:
“entry prize pool”, “Treasure Prize Pool”, “Building Prize Pool”, “Domain Prize Pool”, “Magic Pool”, and “Spiritual Treasure Prize Pool”.
He had tried once before and was naturally familiar with the rules.
However, the last time he came under the escort of Fat Long and others, whereas this time he was alone,
a draw in Void Refining Cultivation cost 10,000 mid-grade Spirit Stones, and after reaching Unification Cultivation, a draw would cost 100,000 mid-grade Spirit Stones.
From an economic standpoint, of course, it was more economical to draw at Void Refining Cultivation as it became expensive after reaching Unification.
“This gentleman,”
the shopkeeper naturally noticed Chen Qiu immediately, coming over with a respectful trot and a lower voice, “Would you like to try your luck again today?”
It wasn’t that he had sharp eyes.
It was because the crowd that had been standing around the wells had suddenly dispersed, leaving only a few brave ones watching from a distance. It was hard not to notice him, and he also had a deep impression of this gentleman.
The hottest figure in Xuantian State these past days.
And the last time this gentleman tried his luck here, he was incredibly fortunate, with all draws successful.
This luck was beyond what ordinary people could achieve.
“Hmm.”
Chen Qiu glanced around; only a few brave souls were still looking towards him, and he even noticed a woman among them wearing an Array Plate at her waist, exactly Qiu’s Array Plate produced by the Taoist Sect.
Good child.
He silently rated her in his heart. Those who supported him with genuine effort and contributed to his Cultivation Path were good children, deserving of recognition.
After a brief greeting with the shopkeeper,
he directly went to the well engraved with “entry prize pool”; his main target this time was the entry prize pool. Without any hesitation, he immediately threw 10,000 mid-grade Spirit Stones into it.
He did not activate the Luck of Human Pride.
He planned to first test the natural likelihood of winning, then decide if it was worth using the Luck of Human Pride. After all, a strand of Luck of Human Pride was also a relatively rare consumable, and gaining it was much harder than acquiring Spirit Stones. If he could get results using Spirit Stones, there was no need to use such rare materials.
Soon,
the 10,000 mid-grade Spirit Stones disappeared into the well without a trace, not even stirring a ripple.
Quite normal.
Chen Qiu did not think much of it and threw in another 10,000 mid-grade Spirit Stones. Last time, Ao Tian had drawn eight times before getting a scarecrow, so his goal was to win within ten tries this time. If the prize was a four consecutive number pure digital entry, it couldn’t be better. If not, he would use the Luck of Human Pride tomorrow.
However—
Just as he was subconsciously reaching for another 10,000 mid-grade Spirit Stones to throw in again, a white light appeared on the surface of the water, and shortly afterward, an entry jade slip slowly floated up.
He won!
He had won on the second try!
The shopkeeper standing by was first slightly surprised, then quickly became excited with some astonishment, “Congratulations, sir, just on the second try you won! Truly worthy of…”
He was genuinely happy for Chen Qiu.
Not for any other reason.
If Chen Qiu had not won after ten or more tries, he would definitely not be in a good mood. If he took his frustration out on the shopkeeper, things could get a bit messy, entirely unnecesarily, right? He couldn’t afford to offend the King of Xuantian.
…
“Hmm?”
Surprise flashed in Chen Qiu’s eyes too. He was roughly aware of the burst rate of the entry prize pool; it was basically a one in ten chance. He hadn’t expected to win on the second try. His Divine Sense subconsciously probed, first checking what the entry was.
–
‘entry name’: 1111.
‘entry level’: green.
‘entry effect’: Your Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Domain, external incarnation, Killing Moves, and all Great Realm breakthroughs will default to First Grade and cannot be upgraded. Against all enemies of a higher Grade than yours, your Spells will cause more damage, the greater the gap, the higher the damage.
