"What's inside?" Zuan noticed that the box was quite exquisite, made of the finest yellow pear wood, with very elaborate patterns on the outside.
Old Man Mi said coldly, "You don't need to know what's inside. Just remember what this box looks like. When you find an identical one at the Wei family's place, bring it back to me."
Zu An scratched his head: "Senior, I don't understand. With your cultivation level, it should be easy for you to enter the Wei family to find something. Why do you want me to go?"
It should be noted that Old Man Mi could come and go from the Chu family as if it were his own home, and even Chu Zhongtian, an eighth-rank official, did not notice him.
Even if the Wei family's defenses are very strong, they can't be as strong as the Duke's mansion, can they?
Old Man Mi snorted: "I naturally have my reasons why I can't take action. Just go and get it. Why all the nonsense?"
"Okay." Zuan shrugged. It wasn't a difficult thing anyway, he would just help him look for it later.
Old Man Mi smiled with satisfaction, turned and left. When he reached the door, he suddenly stopped and specifically warned, "Don't open the box after you find it, or you will be in danger. Don't blame me for reminding you."
"That's so dangerous!" Zu'an exclaimed in fright.
Old Man Mi replied, "As long as you don't open it, it'll be fine."
After saying that, he disappeared completely.
Zuan fell into deep thought. What exactly was in that box?
Human psychology is so strange. If Old Man Mi hadn't specifically emphasized that he couldn't look at it, he probably wouldn't have even considered opening it.
Just like in the past, some light bulb packaging would have a warning: never put the light bulb in your mouth. Normally, no one would do such a stupid thing, but seeing this warning would arouse curiosity, and countless heroes in the world couldn't resist trying it out.
He had a classmate in his previous life who, although he knew the principle that once a light bulb is swallowed, it cannot be removed, was still somewhat skeptical and decided to try it himself. Of course, he also made some preparations in advance, specifically taking a Durex condom to put over the light bulb, thinking that this lubrication would make it easier to remove.
As a result, cold reality taught him a lesson. When the entire school saw him running frantically towards the school hospital with tears in his eyes, pointing at a light bulb with a condom in his mouth, that scene of social death still makes my eyes water just thinking about it...
"Forget it, I'll just sneak a peek once I find it, and I should know." Zuan secretly made up his mind.
At the same time, he also felt a sense of crisis. He didn't know what this old man Mi's purpose was, and being controlled by him like this was not a long-term solution.
I need to find a way to get rid of him as soon as possible.
However, when he thought about what Mi Li had mentioned about his cultivation level, he felt somewhat disheartened. Unless Mi Li could cure the poison of "Xiangfei Red Tears" and help him, even with many advantages, he probably still wouldn't be able to handle the other party.
After all, we can't expect Old Man Mi to be as careless as that giant dragon.
"Improving one's own cultivation is the only way forward!"
Zuan hurriedly began to tally up the anger points he had received during this period, and finally calculated the total to [number missing].
That's so little!
Zuan frowned. 70,000 sounded like a lot, but it would cost 100 points to draw a prize once, and on average, it would take ten draws to get one Spirit Fruit. So, there wasn't much left.
Looks like I've been a bit lax lately; I haven't earned enough anger points.
He knew that this speed was acceptable compared to before, but the higher he progressed in his cultivation, the more terrifying the amount of Yuan Qi Fruits he needed.
It seems we need to think of a new way to improve efficiency.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard he thought about it, he couldn't come up with a good solution.
Left with no other option, we had to try our luck with a lottery.
Now, while in the bathtub, I washed my face a few times before pressing the lottery button.
After participating in various "thank you for participating" events, I finally drew 72 Spirit Fruits, but didn't get any other skills or items.
This was to be expected, since it's not so easy to get good items.
Just like popping Maltesers, they threw handfuls of Vitality Fruits into their mouths, feeling the Vitality begin to spread throughout their bodies, flowing through their limbs and bones, and finally converging towards the ninth magic array.
"Huh?"
Zuan sat up straight instantly because he discovered that the ninth magic circle was completely filled.
That's not right!
Zaun remembered that the ninth magic circle required a total of 2,584 Qi Fruits, but only 320 had been used previously, and only 72 had been consumed this time. It was far from enough.
Suddenly, a thought struck him: he remembered that he had been injured several times during this period, especially when he was struck by that giant dragon in Dragon Hidden Mountain. An ordinary person would have died long ago.
The Phoenix Nirvana Sutra was originally developed through being beaten.
But something still doesn't feel right. Before, in the Yao Guang Secret Realm, I was tortured to the point of death by Mi Li. I barely managed to keep a sliver of health by relying on the "Rich Woman's Happy Ball," which was equivalent to dying several times before achieving a similar effect. This time, the effect of being hit by the dragon was so good?
Does that mean the attack that was blocked by the jade pendant given by Shang Liuyu was also included in that count?
During this time, he had been calculating the ratio of injury to cultivation improvement in each instance of the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra, but now he was somewhat confused, as his previous guesses had been overturned by the facts.
Sigh, maybe only those math geniuses from a past life could find the pattern.
Zuan shook his head, giving up on speculating about the underlying pattern.
He is now more concerned about another issue: after the second level was completed last time, a "strong wind" appeared. Will there be anything this time?
He opened his inner vision and discovered that there were some special lines between the nine magic arrays in his muscles, which together vaguely formed a pattern of a strange bird.
"Another big bird?" Zuan looked puzzled, thinking to himself that he and the big bird were really destined to meet.
