"How much?" Zuo Ci inquired.
There was no specific amount mentioned, but even in defeat, he would still receive four hundred thousand as travel expenses!
Black Cripple had his own calculations in mind. As a summoner, charging a ten thousand bounty for each head was not unreasonable, right? If by chance he stumbled upon the so-called Killing Ground, he would find that Zuo Ci wasn't so terrifying after all!
Zuo Ci pondered for a moment. Regardless of the outcome, he wouldn't be at a loss. If the treasure suited his needs, he could nurture the twin Yuan Ling obtained from the A Jie Drum taken from the Vajrayana Lama, which would enhance the Sha Qi of the Yuan Ling.
Black Cripple looked eagerly at Zuo Ci. But! Zuo Ci narrowed his eyes and said, "Alright then!"
Black Cripple was overjoyed. He drove out his black BMW 5 Series and took Zuo Ci toward their destination.
On the way, Zuo Ci curiously asked, "What about that Dao Yi you mentioned? Does it really work?"
While driving, Black Cripple explained the whole situation to Zuo Ci and highly recommended Dao Yi. It was quite effective!
With a mysterious smile, Black Cripple said, "Dao Yi is similar to the green bubbles used by mortals; it's a virtual realm for practitioners of metaphysics to connect. Most people inside are from the Mystical Circle's underworld, and there's a huge flow of traffic. In today's society, isn't it all about traffic? If we just sit around waiting for Benefactors to come knocking like before, we might not even be able to afford a steamed bun!"
Zuo Ci shook his head. To him, wealth was merely an accessory, not a luxury. If he could exchange this yellow stuff for Protective Talismans, he would be willing.
Following Black Cripple's instructions, he filled out the information and verified his identity. Soon after, a new account named Zuo Ci appeared on Dao Yi's page.
"What is Dao Coin?" Zuo Ci asked, pointing at the recharge page.
"It's similar to the hand coins used on short video platforms; you can exchange them with Old Mao. The exchange rate is ten to one!"
Black Cripple clicked his tongue and said, "Ten bucks can only get you one Dao Coin. The evils of capitalism! Is it easy for us old surnames to make a bit of money?"
"What can you do with Dao Coin?" Zuo Ci asked, puzzled.
"Quite a lot!" Black Cripple replied solemnly. "The Dao Yi platform has four sections: Daily Odd News, Dark Flower List, Mystical Circle, and Online Auction House."
"You can check the latest news in Daily Odd News. You can also post high rewards in the Dark Flower List. Sometimes, if certain Bie Bao Ren or Tu Fuzi encounter insurmountable mountains or dangerous places, they will also release information in the Mystical Circle to recruit cultivators to seek Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures together."
"As for the Online Auction House, it’s basically an auction for those Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that Tu Fuzi and Bie Bao Ren have dug up from ancient ruins, caves, and tombs. If any fakes are found, there’s a tenfold penalty; the platform is fairly reputable."
"If it weren't for the lack of restrictions on Evil Practices here, I would suspect this thing was concocted by those Tian Yi Dao folks!"
"Sounds interesting!" Zuo Ci nodded secretly.
The Dao Yi platform also promoted many online mini-games, similar to page games designed by some advertisers. Leveling up by defeating monsters and obtaining equipment required watching thirty seconds of ads to unlock.
However, if you didn’t want to watch ads, you could spend a Dao Coin, which is five bucks, to purchase a membership. Memberships came in various tiers: silver, gold, diamond—quite intriguing.
He rarely touched such things. After following his uncle out of Zuo Jia Village back then, that Master of Deviant Arts began to seize his Flesh. To avoid harming his loved ones, he wandered into a Mad House in a daze.
Unexpectedly, that Mad House was connected to Yu Ding Guan. The Zuo Dao Lao Gui sought to relive life by using Zuo Ci's body for Blood Sacrifice of all the souls in the Mad House.
If it weren’t for provoking the Fa Jing Zhen Ren from Yu Ding Guan who pursued him relentlessly and severely injured him, he would not have been seized back by Zuo Ci.
At this moment, he couldn’t even play on his phone; he couldn’t even control his own Flesh.
