Chapter 384 - 384 Last Item
Three months later and there were already many fallen heads at the gates of our bored gamer's camp.
Myriad newcomers from afar wanted to kick our good gamer out from his place but alas, they realized quickly that this task was not something that they could accomplish.
Arrogance has been fully repaid in blood and the dead men with their skulls lined up was an obvious testament to the stupidity of their kind.
When the displayed skulls reached a thousand in numbers, the newbies that just landed in the Dark Dragon Sect finally decided to be wary in their steps.
And Clark was indeed very much satisfied to see this result.
"Ahhh... This is a good day."
"Some peace and quiet for a change." Our bored gamer yawned. It was already deep in the night and he was happy to find no more fools arrived at his doorsteps.
He was not a monster that enjoyed the killing of men and animals. If truth be told, Clark welcomed a tranquil life rather than its alternative.
'And double happiness for me since I have also reached another milestone in this xianxia world.' Our avid gamer smiled when he remembered something important.
'Show me my character status, Nancy.' Clark said to his lovely system.
"Affirmative, host." Nancy replied.
"DING!"
Host: Clark Colter
Cultivation: Innate Realm 1st Stage
Erotic Points: 1,001,938,264
Erotic Skills: Lewd Hands
Erotic Shop
Inventory
'Kindly give me a random level 10 item for speed, Nancy.' Our bored gamer instructed.
"Affirmative, host." The system complied.
"DING!"
Phoenix Greaves – an item crafted from the pure essence of a mythical creature. (can mark at most a hundred teleportation points for instant travel, peak item, can no longer be upgraded)
'A marvelous treasure!' Clark got the Phoenix Greaves from his inventory and replaced his usual boots to wear.
With how flashy the Phoenix Greaves was because of its multicolored design, our good gamer decided to change its form to the ones he had on him before.
This would save him from the many questions that would come later on from his women. Most especially that of Xu Ai who had quite a lively nature for a woman.
Clark then went out to the world to test his new item. It was lucky since most people in the camp were already well asleep or were busy cultivating at this time.
Our bored gamer could walk unimpeded by the tiresome greetings of his followers. Nevertheless, Clark took a moment to enjoy the scenery before him.
To arrange the multitudes of makeshift huts in a population of 30,000 men and women was quite a daunting chore indeed. But his people have done it and very much splendidly at that.
With a proud grin on his face, Clark left his Fortress of Love and took a couple of steps forward.
"WHOOSH!" He seemed to be walking on air at this time.
Clark has an illusion that he could go anywhere at once in this xianxia world even without breaking the space around him to use void travel.
"Truly a peak item!" Our bored gamer muttered in praise.
'Now let me check how to install the teleportation points for this thing.'
Clark used his thoughts to communicate with the Phoenix Greaves and his vision was transformed to the vast domains of this xianxia world.
It was easy to note the 4 outer continents and even more obvious to see the biggest unexplored lands at its center.
Unfortunately, the one in the middle was covered in a fog of war. This was of course the Central Continent that remained ever inaccessible to our very own protagonist.
'A man can always try.' Clark mused and pointed at the central part of the huge world map.
'Create a teleportation point in here.' He ordered.
"..." But our bored gamer was met with no response whatsoever.
"That area has a strong divine ban, host. You cannot create a teleportation point in there." Nancy stated the obvious.
'Thank you, Nancy. But i shall uncover its mystery someday.' Clark vowed. He rubbed his clean shaven chin for a precious second or two before moving on from this failure.
'Create a teleportation point in here.' Our bored gamer pointed to another portion of the map.
The scene zoomed in like thunder until he found a familiar city in one of the most desolate lands of the Southern Continent of Fable. This was of course the city of Aurora.
"Teleportation Point Created." Nancy reported.
"The stage is set. Now all i can do is wait." Our bored gamer whispered into the wind as he remained entranced by the myriad stars in the heavens.

Another 3 months quickly passed and a new morning greeted everyone as usual.
But different from the past, today brought a pleasant surprise that most had already been waiting for some time.
"The Gathering of Champions will start tonight!"
"The Gathering of Champions will start tonight!"
"The Gathering of Champions will start tonight!" A loud voice from an unseen man announced from the distance. One could hear that this came from the Dark Dragon Sect itself.
The words rang for ten times straight before it was replaced by another in the next.
"The Cloud Emperor hereby invites everyone to come!" The voice decreed again and same as the last, issued the words 10 times into the billions of people in the audience.
"Finally! I have been meaning to attend the Gathering of Champions!"
"Are you dumb or just plain brain dead?! Only those Enlightened Realm Seniors are expected to go."
"With your pitiful cultivation base in the Core Creation Realm, you'd be squashed clean in those giants' presence!"
"Bahhh... nobody said that we are prohibited to go. The invitation clearly said that everyone is allowed to come!"
"Let's all go to the Gathering of Champions!" Countless cultivators talked amongst themselves and were extremely excited for the future.
One should know that the Gathering of Champions was the prelude before the actual Heavenly Expedition would commence.
"It is here at last!" Same as everyone else, our bored gamer was also looking forward to this moment.
"I hope that the Dark Dragon Sect will not disappoint me."
