Bodhisattva, please help me in my spiritual practice!

After leaving home, Ao Peng did not take the elevator, but entered the game in a dark corner of the tenth-floor stairwell.

After entering the game, he first added Ao Wu as a friend, because the game allows the resale of incense and skills, and naturally also has a friend-adding function.

However, he remembered the big shot's advice: the incense offerings in this game are not only about money, but also about karma.

Therefore, he did not rashly transfer his incense offering to Ao Wu directly, thinking that after Ao Wu was able to forge things, he would buy the weapons forged by Ao Wu at a high price.

Anyway, it's definitely a good idea for Ao Wu to explore things on his own for a while in the early stages.

Ao Wu, who was doing his homework, naturally received a friend request from Ao Peng. He added him as a friend; Ao Peng's game name was "Lucky Person".

Picking up his phone, Ao Wu saw that he had collected over twenty incense sticks and couldn't resist.

The old soil begins.

However, upon logging into the game this time, he discovered some changes.

You awaken in an ancient temple in the old land.

Brave heir, three paths lie before you.

The left side is shrouded in mystery.

The right side is shrouded in mystery.

[In the middle... the weasels sensed danger for some reason and moved away.]

Ao Wu was stunned for a moment. This game script could be changed?

He looked around. Could their house be a special location that could affect the game?

The reason doesn't matter; what matters is that we can continue playing the game!

Ao Wu chose the middle path.

You have walked a broad and sunny road, and you have arrived at Jingmen.

……

On the other side, Ao Peng also entered the game and once again arrived at the familiar room where Hongxiu Zhaoding was waiting.

As soon as he logged on, the welcoming female bodhisattva also logged on, this time bringing him a dark-colored snake gall.

"My lord has woken up. Let's begin today's training."

After saying this, the female bodhisattva began to undress.

[After rigorous practice, your Kundalini meditation has increased by 10.]

[After rigorous practice, your Kundalini meditation has increased by 10.]

However, when he was in the Kundalini meditation (beginner, 90/100), Ao Peng deliberately stopped absorbing incense. Without the support of incense, his half-dead body naturally would not generate new Kundalini.

Yingren looked at Ao Peng with hopeful eyes, "My lord, has your Kundalini meditation reached the Yang Flame Phase?"

Ao Peng openly exposed his lower abdomen, where there was a flame pattern, just one stroke away from being fully drawn.

He frowned and said, "It's almost there. If we eat something better tomorrow, we should be able to make a breakthrough! If we just eat ordinary tiger heart and snake gall, I'm afraid it won't be strong enough to break through."

People are drawn to the almost perfectly round flame pattern.

Damn it, how come we were so close?

However, what Ao Peng said makes sense. Breaking through a barrier requires a lot of nourishing substances. If you are just a little short, the effect of cultivation will be worlds apart.

He looked uncomfortable when greeting people.

Ao Peng then asked with concern, "Is there anything troubling you?"

Yingren smiled awkwardly, and was about to speak when Ao Peng took out 500 incense sticks. "I have 500 incense sticks here, Yingren, you can take them and use them."

He then beat his chest and stamped his feet, tears welling in his eyes, "It's a pity that I'm weak now, and I can only gather this little bit of incense offerings in just a few days."

"If I reach the Yangyan Realm, the sect will certainly look at me with new respect, and then I will naturally have good days ahead. They will definitely not forget to welcome you!"

As he spoke, Ao Peng looked at Yingren with deep affection, placing her hand on his substantial assets. "Yingren... if you have any difficulties, it's fine if you don't buy it. At worst, I'll spend more time, and maybe you can slowly grind your way into the Yang Flame Realm. However, the cultivation will be slow, so please don't look down on me, Yingren."

Feeling the impending surge of heat, Yingren feared all her efforts would be in vain and quickly released her grip, saying, "What are you saying, my lord? I'll find a way to keep the incense. Just wait here for my good news!"

A system notification appeared.

You persuaded Yingren, even though she had already sold her possessions to buy a tiger's heart and borrowed money at exorbitant interest rates to buy snake gallbladders, leaving her heavily in debt. But she still decided to grit her teeth and find a way, and today she went to the market to sell her own essence blood to buy you the tonic for your breakthrough.

Everyone says prostitutes are heartless and actors are unfaithful, but Yingren is truly a good girl. You despicable, vile, and greedy successor, doesn't your conscience hurt?

Facing the system's interrogation, Ao Peng remained unfazed. "Sorry, I don't eat incense, so my heart won't beat, and therefore I don't feel any pain."

Whether my conscience will pound with pain depends on how much offerings the host is willing to make.

Yingren left the room again, and this time Ao Peng did not stay in the room and exited the game.

He opened the door after the greeters left.

[You lazy, good-for-nothing heir, after enjoying three days of blissful indulgence, you've finally decided to explore a new world.]

Ao Peng walked through corridors shrouded in red gauze. Inside the surrounding rooms, there was singing and dancing. It was as if he was under a spell. He walked for more than twenty minutes, and no matter how much he walked forward, he couldn't find his way out.

Suddenly, the door of one of the rooms opened, and a peddler staggered out. He was plain-looking, the kind of person you'd forget at first glance. He carried a box on his back and bowed repeatedly to the girl inside, saying, "I'm sorry, I really can't hold my liquor today. I can't hold my liquor. Let's do it another day."

Ao Peng knew this was the novice skill trainer given by the system, so he quickly grabbed the other person, "Peddler, do you have anything good to sell in your box?"

After Ao Peng finished speaking, the surrounding singing and dancing immediately quieted down. Although they were still in the red-sleeved pavilion, it was as if he and the peddler had entered another world.

You encountered a peddler and approached him to inquire about buying his goods.

"Yes, of course I have good stuff to sell!"

The peddler took off the box he was carrying and patted it hard. Instead of making a crisp sound, the bamboo box emitted an echo like a stone thrown into an empty valley, as if it contained a small world inside.

"I have everything here, from the heavens to the earth, as long as you can afford it! Here are a few items that might suit you, take a look."

The peddler shows you some items; you can buy one or more from them.

【Breakthrough Talisman】(Low-grade Yellow) (1/1), 500 incense sticks. This is a talisman that can break through the illusions of the mortal world. Perhaps it can help you leave the red-sleeved pavilion.

【Tongue Sword】(Yellow Grade Low) (1/1), 1000 incense sticks. This is a sharp sword hidden under the tongue, which may play an unexpected role at a critical moment.

【Lies Galore】(1/1), 500 incense sticks. This is a skill book. After learning it, your ability to lie will be greatly improved.

【Lucky Bag】(∞), 50 Incense+, This is a hidden lucky bag. You can put in incense, and the lucky bag will drop random items. The amount of incense you put in will affect the value of the dropped items to a certain extent, so please choose carefully.

Undoubtedly, the first three fixed options can help Ao Peng cope with the current environment of Hongxiuzhao.

However, despite their seemingly wonderful appearance, all three are traps!

For example, the [Barrier-Breaking Talisman] can indeed help him escape from the Red Sleeve Pavilion, but the moment he escapes, he will probably be caught and taken back by the people of the Red Sleeve Pavilion.

Similarly, whether you kill or not, whether you deceive or not, welcoming people won't solve the problem. There's more than one female bodhisattva in Hongxiuzhao; otherwise, all the benefits here would have been taken by others long ago.

At the same time, this will become a monster-spawning spot that players will definitely want to activate.

The system's guaranteed reward mechanism is that the peddler will provide a skill book. Ao Peng was unsure whether buying the skill the peddler showed would negate his guaranteed reward, so he didn't rush to buy it and instead looked at the last lucky bag.

Lucky bags can also contain skills!

These days, everything he eats and uses depends on this female bodhisattva, Yingren. He only spent some incense money practicing his skills, and he still has more than 60,000 incense coins left. He can afford to play with the lucky bag!

You have contributed 5000 incense sticks to the lucky bag.

The lucky bag shook, and a treasure fell out.

You pick it up and see that it's a broken feng shui compass. It may have been valuable before, but it's broken now.

Even the peddler was surprised that Ao Peng would put five thousand incense sticks into the lucky bag at once.

He looked at Ao Peng, gave him a thumbs up, and laughed, "Kid, you're really brave!"
