23. The Demon Lord's lottery results are not very satisfactory (second update, please keep reading)

"Please choose [one] of the three secret treasures below, Host."

"Platinum Secret Treasure One—'Dream Immortal Bed':

A life-type spiritual treasure, top grade of the Earth rank, crafted by the founding ancestor of Hehuan Sect. When used for dual cultivation with a Dao companion, it provides a [permanent] [physical endurance boost]."

(Note: This item can accommodate up to [ten people] at once, and the endurance boost effect will significantly increase with the number of users.)

"Platinum Secret Treasure Two—'Wishful Dizzy Spell': Also known as 'I Love One Firewood', a seventh-grade treasure elixir, painstakingly created by the founding elixir elder of Huanxi Sect. It has miraculous effects when used on female enemies."

(Note: The efficacy of this item is enough to destroy the divine soul barrier of cultivators below the Unity Period.)

"Platinum Secret Treasure Three—'Three Corpses Shedding Life Cicada': A seventh-grade Gu insect that, when catalyzed by Gu techniques, allows escape from danger by shedding one's skin, like a cicada shedding its shell."

(Note: The teleportation distance is related to the user's Gu techniques expertise.)

....

"This damn... dog system!"

"So all the treasures of Hehuan Sect and Huanxi Sect have been moved to your place, huh!"

Looking at the three options in his mind.

Bai Feng found it ridiculous yet amusing!

The previous golden secret treasures, he let the dog system have its way without complaint!

Finally saved 10,000 points to draw from the Platinum Treasure Box, and this is what he gets?

However.

After a serious review, he discovered the rewards for this time's secret treasures were actually quite valuable.

Let's talk about magical items first.

According to the game setting of "Immortal Romance", the magical items of this world are divided into "Magic Tools", "Magic Treasures", "Spiritual Artifacts", and "Spiritual Treasures".

Each level is further divided into "Heavenly", "Earthly", "Mysterious", and "Yellow" grades.

For elixirs, they are divided into "Spiritual Elixirs", "Treasure Elixirs", and "Immortal Elixirs".

Each elixir level is subdivided from one to nine grades in quality, from low to high.

Frankly speaking.

From a value standpoint, the rewards from Secret Treasure One and Secret Treasure Two aren't bad.

Even though they're not particularly useful.

As for Secret Treasure Three....

"The Three Corpses Shedding Life Cicada is indeed an excellent escape Gu, a treasure that would be coveted by everyone in any sect."

"It's just a pity that, as one of the top Gu masters on the continent, my Blood Kitchen has long preserved thirteen superior-grade Nine Transformations Life Gu. I relied on them to escape Mu Xinlan's clutches back then."

"Taking a step back, if I ever encounter a life-threatening situation, I still have a Demon Lord experience card unused!"

"So, Secret Treasure Three can be completely discarded."

"That leaves only the slightly suggestive rewards of One and Two."

"Which one to choose?"

Bai Feng supported his chin with his hand, unable to decide.

Just as he was entangled.

The next moment.

A warm scene automatically emerged in his mind.

On a luxurious and spacious soft jade immortal bed, lay fairies and witches of various charms, with long, snow-white legs visible at first glance....

"Well, the decision is basically made."

Bai Feng no longer hesitated and decisively stored the 'Dream Immortal Bed' in the storage space.

"Xing'er surely won't refuse."

"I wonder if this style of bed... will be liked by beauties like Lingyin and Lingxue? Can mature beauties like Yuerong and Mu Xinlan accept it?"

"Damn, should've chosen the Wishful Dizzy Spell instead!"

"Sigh!"

The Demon Lord's lottery result wasn't ideal, plunging him into another round of indecision.

.....

.....

Yin Gui Palace, Pharmacist Palace.

"Pain! Master! It hurts so much...."

"That Bail Qingling must be putting on an act! Master, you have to avenge me!"

The scent of medicine filled the air, and the heart-wrenching cries echoed in the incense-shrouded Pharmacist Palace.

Hua Yuerong coldly observed the one-armed youth on the sickbed, her heart filled with more disgust:

"Hmph, just because of your incompetence, you dare to assassinate Bail Qingling?"

"This is my final warning to you!"

"If you dare act on your own again, never mind letting Bail Qingling take care of you, I shall—clean the house myself!"

"Do you understand?"

The female master of Yin Gui Palace, with each word, spoke with a cold and harsh tone.

Her originally charming and soft peach blossom eyes instantly turned filled with murderous intent!

"Un...understood, Master."

Xiao Chen forcibly suppressed the hatred within and nodded.

Hua Yuerong continued:

"Later, I will arrange for several Medicine Masters from this palace to tend to your wounds personally. The wound should heal in a moment."

"As for that severed arm....."

Xiao Chen couldn't help but interrupt: "Master! Is there still hope for the severed arm to be reattached? I don't want to remain a cripple for the rest of my life!"

"Yes."

Hua Yuerong's expression remained indifferent: "But there's no need."

"Master, you....."

Seeing the attitude of the other party, Xiao Chen once again became exceedingly angry!

Ultimately, under the duress of the terrifying methods of the Embroidered Face Saint Maiden, he suppressed it and gritted his teeth: "Master, are you worried that...if my arm is reattached, Bail Qingling will pursue it?"

"It has nothing to do with that bastard."

Hua Yuerong raised her eyebrows and said: "You trespassed into someone's cave mansion and left an arm for amends as I personally permitted. If I go back on my word and this gets out, where does that leave my reputation as the Hall Master of Yin Gui Palace in the sect?"

Upon hearing these words.

Xiao Chen was initially taken aback. Then, as if realizing something, he excitedly said:

"I understand!"

"At the upcoming Sect Leader Election Conference in a month, Master has finally decided to make a bid for it, hasn't she? My God! This is fantastic!"

The more he spoke, the more excited he became.

Yes, from his perspective as a top undercover, chaos in the enemy's camp was undoubtedly the best scenario!

It would be best if they undermined each other and turned into a mess!

"Ha, aren't you quick-witted."

Hua Yuerong glanced at her disciple, semi-smirking: "Then, can you guess why I want to wade into these troubled waters?"

"This...."

Xiao Chen pondered briefly, then said: "Master's participation in the sect leader election is naturally to ensure that our Yin Gui Palace can access more resources from the sect! So that we disciples can follow in your footsteps, grow rapidly, and eventually dominate the Demon Path, with none to oppose us!"

"Hmph, I care not for these things."

Hua Yuerong spoke with a blank expression: "I can tell you that the reason I'm participating in the sect leader election is to obtain the secret key to the sect's forbidden land, the 'Flame Demon Tower'."

"Secret key?" Xiao Chen looked puzzled.

"Indeed."

Hua Yuerong looked towards the sky over Youluo Mountain in the south with a touch of sadness in her eyes, "Once, a thoroughly vile person buried some things inside the 'Flame Demon Tower'. I must find them! To see what exactly is hidden in his heart!"

.....

.....

Cangming General Altar, Black Moon Hall, back mountain.

On a desolate hill, a picturesque young girl in white knelt with her knees on the ground facing south, her expression sorrowful.

Her eyes were red and wet, as if she'd just cried.

Behind the girl.

A blue-haired woman, similar in age but possessing an aura both heroic and beautiful, watched with a heavy expression and muttered:

"Sigh, Lingyin, Lingyin, you and I have known each other since childhood; this is the first time I've seen you cry."

"That demon head being brought to this end is just karma's payback! If you ask me, we should be setting off fireworks to celebrate! Why are you...."

"Hongyi, I'm stressing for the last time."

Dantai Lingyin broke in with an icy tone: "He was a demon head, but he was also a master with an ingrained kindness towards me. Now that he's deceased, all his sins have died with him, and I will not allow anyone to disparage him any longer!"

"Not even you!"

Feeling the anger in her best friend's voice, Ye Hongyi awkwardly laughed and appeased: "Alright, alright, what I meant is, rather than mourning him here, you might as well take a trip to the Blood Kitchen, and with Xing'er, build him a grave, wouldn't that be better?"

"He wouldn't want to see me."

Dantai Lingyin shook her head, her tone slightly bitter: "Whether in life or death, I was insignificant in his heart."

By the end, this sect protectress, seen by outsiders as cold as an immortal, couldn't help but tear up again!

Ye Hongyi embraced her best friend with heartache.

In that moment of silent embrace between the two beauties.

A timid young voice came from behind:

"Second Senior Sister... he said he..."

"Misses you."

Upon hearing this voice.

Dantai Lingyin and Ye Hongyi's beautiful eyes widened as their bodies shook, nearly fainting!
