Global Dungeon: I Can See the Status Bar

As he spoke, Lu Wenwu’s voice ceased, and he watched with great interest the red-armored man in front of him, who looked as terrified as a goose with its neck being choked, his eyes held a profound meaning.

[Jia Yongchang (A+)]: 3 5327/210 0000

[Cultivation]: Late-stage Nascent Soul

[Current State]: Treasure Armor Spirit, Spiritual Power Depleted, Seriously Injured, Despairing, Terrified, Afraid, Conflicted

[Analysis]: The third deputy legion commander of Zhen Nan City’s first Patrol Hunting Army, a Human Race cultivator, and grandson of the Blood Pattern Ancestor. Currently panicked due to fear of you, striving desperately to survive.

Just as the Eye of True Sight revealed, apart from fear, Jia Yongchang was also deeply conflicted.

It wasn’t about whether to admit defeat.

But rather, he was conflicted about whether admitting defeat would result in his survival.

The Armored Race, all are belligerent, a naturally combative race with a lifelong passion for the thrill of battle, harboring strong killing intent and destructive desires towards all non-race creatures.

But Jia Yongchang was the anomaly among them.

An anomaly who only fought advantageous battles.

It was for this reason that, when nearly all other cultivators of his age and level had perished, his position in the city steadily rose to that of deputy legion commander.

Just like his name.

After a moment of silence, Jia Yongchang spoke: ”Respected stranger ancestor, I have no intention of opposing you. It’s just that as a soldier, I must obey the legion commander’s orders.”

”Ancestor, my grandfather is the Blood Pattern Ancestor of Zhen Nan City, one of at least the top three in the world, with a cultivation level reaching Mid-Stage Divinity Transformation. I am willing to offer enough sincerity, just hoping you can spare me.”

”Enough sincerity? How much sincerity?” Lu Wenwu’s interest was piqued, ”Can your Armored Race make egg-filled pancakes?”

Jia Yongchang: ”???”

”...May I ask, ancestor, are eggs some kind of creature’s eggs? And what is this ’chicken’? I have not heard of such a species of demon beast, please forgive my ignorance.”

Jia Yongchang lowered his stance considerably, fearing that Lu Wenwu might kill him if he were displeased.

”No eggs at all? How uninteresting, your Armored Race is destined to lead a failed life.” Lu Wenwu suddenly felt bored, losing interest in the prisoner before him.

However, his loss of interest alarmed Jia Yongchang, who feared for his life.

With a decisive resolve, Jia Yongchang exclaimed, ”Ancestor! Ancestor, please spare my life. I am willing to offer three Top-grade Spirit Stones, five hundred Upper-grade Spirit Stones, along with my grandfather’s unique Blood Pattern Life Armor Casting Skill!”

”The Blood Pattern Life Armor Casting Skill is my grandfather’s signature ultimate skill, designed specifically for invincible ancestors like yourself on the battlefield. Possessing a set of Blood Pattern Life Armor can at least double your recovery and battlefield harvest abilities! Power will also increase accordingly!”

Hmm?

That impressive?

To double the attributes of the Divinity Transformation Stage is no simple feat.

Lu Wenwu’s interest was immediately piqued, and he brought out the Soul Hook to bind Jia Yongchang’s spirit, ”inviting” him onto the cloud summoned by Mao Mao.

”Elaborate on the Blood Pattern Battle Armor, nothing else is important. Can you truly acquire the complete casting technique?”

”I can, absolutely!” Jia Yongchang swore a Heavenly Dao Oath, ”My grandfather dotes on me the most! I am the only heir of my family, my parents have died in battle, and my grandmother has passed away. As long as it can save my life, my grandfather will definitely agree!”

”Good, good, double happiness! When we reach Zhen Nan City, it will be up to you to perform.” Lu Wenwu rejoiced, ”I am the Violent Dragon, I have always loved making friends.”

”I will not disappoint Violent Dragon Ancestor’s expectations.”

Jia Yongchang finally revealed a smile of relief, taking a long breath.

Just then, after cleaning up the battlefield, the Red Tiger Demon King and the Canglang Demon King nervously returned to the cloud, shrinking back to pet size.

A wolf and a tiger bowed low, saying respectfully: ”Reporting to Demon Venerable, the spoils have been collected and tallied. Including the previous encounter, you have acquired one Top-grade Spirit Stone, Upper-grade...”

”It’s not important, no need to report these trivial matters.” Lu Wenwu waved nonchalantly, ”Hand me the Jade Slips, books, blueprints, and such, the rest you can keep for fun.”

The Red Tiger Demon King was stunned, but handed over two well-organized Storage Bags containing items like Jade Slips.

Although Lu Wenwu showed indifference, he couldn’t help but remark: ”Demon Venerable, this is a Top-grade Spirit Stone! And... moreover! The spoils you’ve gained together would be enough to create seven or eight more Celestial Star Cities!”

”Top-grade Spirit Stone? Is that quicker than directly refining a Nascent Soul to improve cultivation?” Lu Wenwu cheerfully asked.

”...Um...surely not.”

”Does Celestial Star City match the value of several Upper-grade Spiritual Veins?”

”...Demon Venerable must be joking, even the Celestial Star Sect behind Celestial Star City lacks Upper-grade Spiritual Veins, those are treasures only the Great Immortal Sect possesses. They only have a mediocre Middle-Grade Spiritual Vein.”

”Isn’t that settled then.”

Lu Wenwu habitually shrugged and casually snapped his fingers.

A rift opened in the void, and spiritual qi, dense enough to almost form droplets, splashed across the faces of a wolf and a tiger.

”Middle-grade spiritual veins are nothing special. I have nine top-grade fire attributes that I barely use.”

”The spirit stones spawned from these kinds of veins are trash; I’m too lazy to pick them up. I just dig a pond at the vein source and heat the water for a bath.”

”Can this wealth buy you a few Celestial Star Cities? Tsk, I wouldn’t bother to pick up these trivial things; they’re just taking up space.”

Lu Wenwu snapped his fingers again, and the rift leading to Spirit Heaven Cave Heaven closed immediately.

That extremely dense spiritual qi vanished without a trace.

Beside him, Jia Yongchang was completely stunned, standing there as if petrified.

The faces of the two Demon Kings subconsciously showed expressions of longing and loss.

But soon, their faces transformed into shock and disbelief.

Middle-grade spiritual veins, nine!?

Low-grade spiritual veins, eighteen!?

The Violent Dragon Demon Venerable has mastered and fully refined a little world!

Even without considering other wealth, the current fortune is enough to entice any Divinity Transformation Stage cultivator, yet in front of him, it can only be considered pocket change.

This is a complete little world!

If there’s one more upper-grade spiritual vein, it’s enough to establish an Immortal Sect!

And it has to be the top-tier kind!

The Red Tiger Demon King and Canglang Demon King were still in a daze.

Beside them, Jia Yongchang shamefully knelt: ”Yongchang has wandered for half his life without encountering a wise lord. If you do not abandon me, I wish to pledge allegiance as an honorary ancestor! I beg Violent Dragon Ancestor to fulfill my request!”

Lu Wenwu: ”?”

Well well well, an honorary ancestor it is.

Is this how you’re going to play it?

Even Lu Bu would call you a pro after seeing this.

Before Lu Wenwu could react, the Canglang Demon King and Red Tiger Demon King exchanged a glance and kneeling respectfully, began kissing Lu Wenwu’s blood-stained shoes.

”Green has wandered for half his life without encountering a wise lord. If you do not abandon us, we wish to pledge allegiance to the Demon Venerable as our lord! From now on, we will obey your every command, risking death without hesitation!”

”Red has wandered for half his life without encountering a wise lord. If you do not abandon us, we wish to pledge allegiance to the Demon Venerable as our lord! From now on, we will obey your every command, risking death without hesitation!”

If Jia Yongchang only made Lu Wenwu feel awkward.

The behavior of these two directly amused Lu Wenwu.

Do these demon beasts even know what these words mean before imitating them?

They even managed to tweak it with subjective initiative.

No wonder they’re sworn brothers; they’re incredibly in sync.

Interesting, truly interesting.

Lu Wenwu was amused and laughed heartily: ”Recognize me as your master? Where’s your dignity as Demon Kings? What about the grudge you had against me?”

The Canglang Demon King answered decisively: ”Demon Venerable, there is a wise saying among humans: know how to adapt to the times. We, two brothers, were blinded by hatred before, but now that we see the Demon Venerable, we realize what the true Dao is! Moreover... weren’t the spirit beasts in those cultivation sects once demon beasts? We are merely choosing the correct path.”

Lu Wenwu chuckled and asked again: ”Alright alright, what about your brother’s grudge then? Not avenging it?”

”The Demon Venerable jokes, that fellow... the Cyan Wood Demon Thief didn’t recognize the high righteousness of the Demon Venerable. Even facing the might of the Demon Venerable, it still sought death—that was its mistake, dying deservedly. We two brothers must draw a clear line from such disloyal, unrighteous, and impolite demons, so that we can loyally follow the Demon Venerable and serve him tirelessly!”

The Red Tiger Demon King respectfully looked, showing severe disdain for the Cyan Wood Demon King. He spoke as if it was a factual story.

Jia Yongchang, who had just become a captive, was dumbfounded.

Goodness, is this how demon beasts suck up to the strong?

Are you serious with this exaggeration!

The Canglang Demon King glanced at him with a sneer in his heart.

Do you naive kid want to compete with us in the demon race’s ancestral skill?

Do you not know how spirit beasts came to be?
