Siuteo

In the heart of the Azure Continent lies a legendary establishment known as Origin Mall.
This extraordinary store offers goods beyond imagination: a sip of its cola can instantly replenish one's vitality; its spicy snacks grant the strength to overcome powerful foes; the games it offers can accelerate cultivation progress; and its novels impart profound techniques and insights.
Origin Mall boasts a vast array of offerings, catering to leisure, entertainment, dining, and training needs alike.
However, there’s one rule that all visitors must remember: never cause trouble in the store. The owner, though unassuming, is unimaginably powerful.

The Omniversal Merchant

Read 100+ advanced chapters: pat reon/Siuteo

Experiencing a battle through the eyes of someone else was completely different from fighting in the Tower of Trial. This first-person perspective allowed one to feel every movement and decision made by a mysterious and powerful figure.

It wasn't just a cooking tutorial—it was an unparalleled opportunity for cultivation insight.

"This cooking tutorial is insane! I almost overlooked its true value!" Gu Yunxi exclaimed, feeling fortunate to have been the first to uncover the hidden potential.

Well, aside from Luo Chuan and Sister Ziyan, of course.

In any case, the boss was undeniably amazing!

"Huh? Wait a second!" someone nearby shouted. "Why does the scene on Gu Yunxi's screen look so different from everyone else's?"

Naturally, this drew everyone's attention.

While most monitors displayed their respective users, Gu Yunxi's screen showed a man clad in black standing against an overwhelming foe.

The students who hadn't gotten a chance to try the tutorial chose to remain in the store to observe. After all, three hours wasn't too long to wait. The shout quickly gathered a crowd behind Gu Yunxi.

"It sure looks like one. That aura! If I'm not mistaken, this is at least at the Eminence level!"

"There's no way Gu Yunxi is actually facing this thing. She wouldn't last a second!"

"Wait, is that… a kitchen knife in her hand? No way she's planning to chop up a dragon with that!"

"Haha, a kitchen knife against a dragon? Ridiculous!"

But as they continued watching, their laughter came to an abrupt halt.

Their smiles froze, and their expressions turned comical, mouths agape in disbelief.

"What… What did we just witness?"

"She… She cut the dragon down with a single strike?"

The students stared wide-eyed at the monitor, unable to comprehend what they had just seen.

Even Murong Haitang, who had been observing silently, couldn't hide her shock. Yet her astonishment quickly turned to deep contemplation.

As someone at the pinnacle of Pathseeker, she understood the sheer difficulty of cultivation and the insurmountable gap between realms.

The black dragon on the screen wasn't just powerful—it had surpassed the level of Pathseeker and likely even reached the heights of Celestial Ascendant.

For someone at Gu Yunxi's level to slay such a creature with one blow seemed utterly implausible.

Murong Haitang's thoughts grew heavier.

The gap between realms couldn't simply be bridged with raw strength. It was akin to giving a sharp blade to a child.

Even if the child could wield the weapon, they wouldn't have the skill or control to use it effectively. The sword could just as easily harm the wielder as it could their opponent.

However, in the hands of a trained assassin, the same sword could multiply their strength and enable effortless kills.

This was the difference brought about by cultivation realms.

And yet… Gu Yunxi, who clearly lacked the cultivation to bridge that gap, had done the unthinkable.

Gu Yunxi, oblivious to the commotion she had caused, remained engrossed in the tutorial.

The experience of creating Nine Spirit Dragon Bone Soup had been utterly immersive, leaving her awestruck.

When it finally ended, she let out a long breath, her heart still racing from the surreal battle.

In her mind, beasts like dragons and phoenixes had always been untouchable, legendary beings. But after this experience, something had shifted.

For those at the peak of cultivation, these so-called mythical creatures were nothing more than ingredients.

If she wanted to reach the pinnacle of the cultivation world, the first step was unwavering belief in herself.

And for Gu Yunxi, this newfound confidence had blossomed—unexpectedly but undeniably.
