David didn't recognize the guy's name; he probably was a random nobody, not worth paying attention to.

But David was strangely attracted to the guy's Crystallization of Life.

"Golden Eyes!"

Although it was only an uncommon grade Crystallization of Life, he wanted it.

As he thought, his eyes narrowed as he tried to think clearly.

But at this time, to Sylvie, his actions gave a completely different impression, as if he was trying to focus on the naked woman's body standing across the street.

Sylvie's eyes suddenly turned cold, and she turned her head away, not willing to watch his degenerate actions anymore.

It would be surprising to see how David would react if he realized he had been labeled as a degenerate. But maybe we will never know.

Meanwhile, David wasn't idle; he chose the second option and extracted the poor guy's Crystallization of Life; with this action, the poor guy's next reincarnation was also ruined.

Maybe in his next life, he might reincarnate as an ant and die once some random kid stepped on him.

But that had nothing to do with David anymore.

After choosing the option, David immediately felt a burning sensation in his eyes.

Without wasting any time, David walked over to the nearest reflective surface that he could find.

"Interesting!" David muttered with slight surprise in his voice.

A golden ring had appeared around David's black pupils, giving him an otherworldly look.

Mary also walked over and started to examine him closely after watching his actions.

"When did you get a tattoo, Darling?" Mary said in surprise.

Join us at m v le mpyr now

"What tattoo?"

David off-handedly said, not paying attention to her words; his focus was still on the changes in his eyes.

"Borrito, you say something."

At this time, Mary tapped Borrito's head and urged him to say something once she realized David was not paying attention to her.

Borrito squinted his small beady eyes in order to take a closer look, and after taking a look, he said, "Yeah, what is this weird tattoo on your neck?"

Now that two people had spoken, there should be no mistake.

David focused on his neck, and indeed, in the next moment, his eyes widened in surprise.

A chain-like tattoo made up of small spherical balls. The chains seemed to wrap around his throat.

"Isn't this?" David's eyes flashed with surprise.

The tattoo had an uncanny resemblance to the engraving on the Nine Sun trees branch.

Seeing that the eyes of his two companions were still focused on him, David cleared his throat and slowly spoke.

"Ahem! It's nothing, just the effect of my new technique that I recently started to cultivate."

Borrito immediately nodded, his small head bobbing up and down.

Mary's eyes, on the other hand, were filled with numerous questions, but she didn't give voice to them after listening to David's words.

Sylvie, although interested in the conversation, didn't turn her head around to take a look.

"Let's not waste our time on such useless topics."

After saying those words, David also started to walk.

The crowd moved away to not get in David's way.

David slowly walked while trying to test his new Crystallization of Life.

Just as he thought of using it, his pupils seemed to flash with golden light.

But that was it; David didn't seem to feel any other change.

"Ahh, what's this?" David subconsciously muttered.

Sylvie's body seemed to be glowing with reddish light.

Confused, David turned his head again and looked at Mary and Ruby.

Their bodies also seemed to be glowing but in golden color.

David had no idea what those colors represented.

However, before he could think about anything further, the colors suddenly vanished, and his eyes also returned to normal.

Without hesitating, David paid the bank the required amount, and once again, a status report appeared in front of him.

Remark: Congratulations on your successful breakthrough, but please don't forget about the bank.]

Without hesitating, David paid the bank once more, and more information about the new Crystallization of Life appeared in front of him.

[Golden Eyes - helps the wielder in judging a cultivator's intent. Gold means - favorable impression, Red - Unfavorable opinions, and lastly, Black represents irreconcilable hatred.]

"Ah! So it works like this," David thought in his head after going through the information.

Immediately, he was satisfied with his new Crystallization of Life; although its grade was low, it was highly useful. Sёarᴄh the ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Anyway, what did he do to have this little girl's unfavorable opinion?" David thought with a look of amusement on his face.

Without realizing it, David arrived in front of a long queue of people, all of them patiently waiting for their turn to enter inside.

David also waited for his turn; luckily, he didn't have to wait for long. In barely five minutes, it was his group's turn.

"Purpose of your visit," a lady in spectacles asked while looking at the group.

"Business," David only uttered a single word and didn't elaborate.

The spectacle lady also nodded and didn't ask for further explanation.

"2 mid-grade spirit stones per person."

When he heard those words, David's jaw almost hit the ground. No wonder there was a flourishing market outside the city.

But David didn't think much about it; two mid-grade spirit stones were nothing for him now.

"Here's eight spirit stones." David flicked his wrist and gently placed the spirit stones on top of the counter.

The spectacles lady smiled and took six spirit stones and left two behind.

"Pets are given free entry," the lady explained.

Wordlessly, David picked up the spirit stones and placed them in his storage ring.

"Let's go, guys," David said to the two girls who were looking at the roof of the building.

They were little two girls who were waiting for their father's—ahem!—Daddy to settle the bill.

David and his group walked through a narrow tunnel-like structure for five minutes, and they finally entered Nightblade city.

Immediately, David felt the changes; the ground beneath his feet was completely golden, as if it was made of pure gold.

Before David could ponder about anything, he heard Mary mutter.

"A five-star formation!"

David immediately frowned after hearing her words. Such a powerful formation.

A five-star formation could directly rival Void Refining experts in terms of pure raw power.

Something which David couldn't even imagine currently. He had barely met a few Nascent Soul realm experts, not to talk about someone as grand as Void Refining experts.

From what he had heard, there were several Void Refining experts in the city.

When David's train of thought reached this point, his eyes flashed with admiration.

A Void Refining expert was a true powerhouse, someone who could travel all over the world without any issue.

If they wanted, they could join and even become respected elders of organizations like Bald Monk Wine Shop.

"Please don't shout like this," Sylvie spoke with a slightly embarrassed face as the eyes of most of the people on the streets were focused on their group.

Mary's words may have been low, but they had been heard by all of the people present as most of them were high-level cultivators with enhanced senses.

Mary rolled her eyes at the girl's words, not caring about the crowd's gaze. She turned her head and looked at David.

"Darling! Where are we going next?"

Hearing her words, David sighed and shook his head.

"Let us find a place to stay first before we can think about doing anything else."

After saying those words, he turned his head and looked at Sylvie and said,

"And you little girl, give me one mid-grade spirit stone right now."

With her arrogant attitude and unfavorable opinions, he didn't feel like spending hundreds of thousands of spirit stones on her.

After listening to David's words, the smile on Sylvie's face froze.

"I don't have any right now. I will give you back later," in the end, she gritted her teeth and said.

"So what if you don't have any? I don't give a damn about your situation; just give me my money right now."

Sylvie's face turned red as a tomato. She felt incredibly humiliated and spoke with a dark expression on her face. "Sorry. Forgive me for my prior rudeness."

As soon as she said sorry, David immediately smiled and nodded. "Good girl."

David could understand people talking shit behind his back, but to disrespect openly, that was something he could never tolerate.

After teaching her a small lesson, David smiled once more and asked, "Have you been to this city before?"

Sylvie nodded her head and said, "Lyla brought me here a couple of times in the past."

"Good, then take us to a good inn."
