Chapter 575 - 575 Search And Upgrade
"Affirmative, host. The majority of the cultivators in this city are basically confined in the major clans.
While there are also rogue cultivators to be found but they are weak compared to those who have the full backing of a cultivator clan behind them." Nancy replied promptly.
'I knew it! My partner would certainly not drop me in this barren part of the world without easy and immediate access to my goals. It would instead make things more simpler for me.'
Our bored gamer nodded with approval. The heavenly treasure clay brick has been practically giving him worlds to conquer on a silver platter.
'Point me to the nearest cultivator then, Nancy.' Clark instructed while they were still waiting for their food to come.
With Han Chai adding more to the list, he knew that they were going to spend a lot of time here.
"DING!" A soft chime echoed in the ears of our good gamer and a green arrow floated before him. The path was short and precise and it ended surprisingly close to their table.
Unto the crying man nearby.
'Ahhh... This is too easy.' Our bored gamer could not help but smile at this great fortune. He did not even have to go far to get his 1st upgrade ever.
It did not need telling that all the mortals he encountered before did not even qualify to give him a power up since they were all very weak in comparison to our very own protagonist.
"Stay here, Chai'er. Your big brother will just visit a friend in this city." Clark said to his sister and did not wait for any reply. He stood up and Han Chai's eyes followed him with curiosity.
She visibly calmed down when she realized that her brother's friend was only at one of the tables nearby.
This would mean that her brother would indeed not go out far and out this inn as she feared just moments earlier.
"Hello there, friend Shi Yan. I'm sorry for your heart's demise. But can you please cry somewhere else since you are only ruining my meal this early in the day?"
This was how our good gamer greeted the heartbroken man. He got the name and information of the guy using his system of course.
"..." The eatery inside the inn got quieter in an instant that even a needle drop could be heard at this time.
There were soft gasps coming from the women and perhaps this has only given a more bad omen to what will follow ahead.
"I'm in a very bad mood, boy."
"Go away while I still have the sanity to forgive your arrogance." The crying man named Shi Yan said harshly.
He knew that he had been misbehaving earlier but he could not care less for such trivial matters. He was with his close friends and he was sad.
Thus, no god or demon could stop Shi Yan from drinking until he collapsed to unconsciousness today.
"What are you waiting for, fool?! Scram!"
"Beat it, bitch!"
"Go now! Else you'll be borrowing a dog's face once we're finished beating you up!" The gang of friends around Shi Yan threatened with their words alone.
They were not here to seek trouble and just the ordinary features of our bored gamer alone with no discernible clan insignia of Navi City was enough to embolden them to be much rougher in their speech.
It was good that the group never threw any punches in the duration. Alas, this went against the plan of our very own protagonist of course.
'SIGH!'
'I can't believe that it would be this hard to provoke someone in this world.' Our bored gamer shook his head and then he tried again in the next instant.
"Hehehe. With an ugly face like yours, I doubt that any girl would be willing to marry you in the end."
"Go out now before I lose all my patience left from all the duck crying you made in my presence!"
Clark spat out these toxic words and at this time, he got an immediate reaction from his target. Shi Yan was far from ugly of course.
He was in fact a handsome young man but our good gamer only needed to arouse a violent reaction from the guy. And he got that and more by the end of his words.
"BANG!" One chair toppled down loudly as an angry man stood up abruptly in response.
"Say that again." Shi Yan said softly but his fists were already clenched tightly right now.
There was no question that he was about to unleash murder in broad daylight but our bored gamer was not at all terrified by the prospect.
He was instead excited to feel his 1st ever upgrade in this fresh alien world.
"I. Said. That. You. Are. One. Fucking. Ugly. Man." Clark taunted as he pronounced every word with deep landing and intent.
"AHHHHHHHHH!" Shi Yan roared and in his outrage, he poured all his hate in his punch.
His figure went unbelievably fast and before anyone could blink, the fist had already landed at the very cheeks of our avid gamer.
But before Clark could borrow any dog's face from the vicinity, his system cheat had already saved him from outright shame and disgrace.
"DING!" Time stopped and recorded some major alterations onto the character sheet of our bored gamer.
"The Overlord System has detected that the user's enemy has a cultivation base of 5th Stage of True Qi Realm."
"DING!"
"The Overlord System will promote the user unto the 6th Stage of True Qi Realm."
"The Overlord System has detected that the user's enemy has used a technique called Stone Mortal Punch."
"DING!"
"The Overlord System will grant the user the technique Ten Thousand Phantom Fists." Nancy's voice announced amidst the time stop that ensued.
Immediately after, the character information about our good gamer also changed after these upgrades.
