Chapter 518: Chapter 171: Two Bizarre! The Doomed World of Cultivation! (Mega Chapter of Ten Thousand Words!)

[It turns out that the strange one is located in this city, running a small shop, which makes you all feel very subtle. When you walk into the shop and see the ordinary-looking strange one, who has no aura and is completely mortal, you become even more astonished.]

[Because it’s the first time the strange one has dared to expose itself voluntarily and invite you over. Moreover, this strange one is the weakest among those you have encountered, at least in terms of its combat power. Perhaps, a slightly trained mortal could defeat it and kill it.]

[However, although you find it strange, you don’t take it lightly. After all, Ye Xiaofan has been turned into a puppet, which shows that the strange one is not simple. Its most powerful attribute is its extremely high-level ability, not its combat power.]

[As you remain on guard, the strange one invites you to sit down and makes tea for all of you. None of you show any intention of drinking. The strange one finds this very dull.]

[Then, the strange one takes the initiative to reveal its ability. Its ability is to turn a shop into a stronghold. This stronghold is invincible, indestructible from the outside and inside alike. At the same time, in this stronghold, he is invincible, and no one can hurt or move him. Of course, he can’t harm his guests with conventional methods either, at most, he can only kick them out.]

[These words make your faces change slightly. It’s the first time the strange one has told you its ability, and if it’s true, it would be quite troublesome because you cannot kill him. And the strange one is obviously capable of dealing with you through unconventional methods.]

[At this, you become cold and try to attack the strange one and the shop. To your silence, even with an attack powerful enough to kill a Void lord, you cannot harm the strange one, let alone destroy anything in the shop.]

[The strange one sees your actions but doesn’t mind, just smiles and says that he forgot to tell you something. As you entered the shop, you must pay a certain price: buying a card from him. In these cards, there are various things, which could be prizes or pitfalls, all depending on luck.]

[Upon hearing the strange one’s words, you all look serious, knowing that he has bad intentions and has been setting traps for you to fall into from the beginning. Yet, you still have to fall into them.]

The text simulation stops there, Wang Ping’s consciousness flickers, and numerous scenes appear in his mind, finally concentrating on the scene inside the shop.

“What price do we need to pay? How did he become like this?”

Wang Ping’s face is heavy, knowing that it’s time to make a choice, he glances at Ye Xiaofan and speaks in a low voice.

“Him? If I told you that I saved his life, would you believe me?”

The strange one says with a profound meaning.

“What do you mean?”

Chen Kang eagerly asks.

“My shop is very fair. If you want to know or get something, you need to pay the appropriate price and have a certain amount of luck.”

The strange one takes out a deck of cards, puts it on the table, and speaks slowly.

“If you want to know something, use your ‘money’ to buy cards, and the cards will reveal the truth. Of course, you might also buy some ‘bad cards’, in which case you’ll be miserable.”

Wang Ping remains silent, staring intensely at the strange one.

Then, he looks back at Ye Xiaofan.

In the simulation, the existence of the chat group is watered down, so they can’t contact each other through the chat group.

In other words, Ye Xiaofan can’t contact them in reality.

So after he was brought to the shop by the strange one, he was ensnared by the strange one’s tricks.

He became a puppet due to the strange one’s ability but also because he himself bought a card and took a risk on something.

“How troublesome.”

Wang Ping sighs.

Yes, it’s very troublesome.

For Wang Ping, dealing with this mysterious and unpredictable strange one, who cannot be defeated by combat or simulation, and relies on luck, is the most difficult part.

Honestly, all these things remind Wang Ping of the main characters in some Myriad Heavens novel themes about running sinister shops in his previous life.

It’s just that those main characters are ruthless but not as dangerous as this strange one.
