Hungry Dragon Roar: Majiyabakune~
Hungry Dragon Roar: Kanna wants to go too!
No-Blush Lotus: Welcome, welcome, Kanna-chan~
Seeing the adorable little dragon express her interest, Zhang Chulan quickly replied.
He was more than happy to welcome this tiny, unbearably cute yet terrifyingly powerful creature. After all, she represented an entire world.
Plus, if he could keep Kanna-chan happy, he might even get his hands on some otherworldly magic.
Magic! And not just any magic—the kind with incredible feats in the stories: existence erasure, time reversal, restoration, cross-dimensional communication spells, summoning beings from other worlds…
He wanted all of it.
Fallen Angel: You're all going?
Fallen Angel: Tch. Fine, I'll come too. Ugh, I really don't wanna move…
Gabriel reluctantly chimed in, just to fit in.
No-Blush Lotus: …
Seeing Gabriel's message, Zhang Chulan's forehead sprouted a few metaphorical black lines. This lazy angel…
Then, as if struck by inspiration, a mischievous grin crept onto his face.
Oh, you don't want to come?
Let's see how long that attitude lasts.
No-Blush Lotus: What a shame. I was just about to say, the games in our world are—
Fallen Angel: I'LL BE THERE ON TIME, COUNT ON IT!!!
The moment Gabriel read Zhang Chulan's message, it hit her—other worlds had games hers didn't!
And from what she'd heard, that world's technology was pretty advanced. That had to mean better games, right?
How could she not go and collect them?
With that realization, Gabriel immediately forgot her earlier reluctance and eagerly confirmed her attendance.
Dragon King Spits Water: 666.
Don't Mock the Youth's Poverty: 666.
Camera Girl: 666.
Slime King: 666.
…
Despite the group's "praise," Gabriel couldn't care less. As long as there were new games, other people's opinions meant nothing to her.
Truth-Seeker: Alright, since everyone's going, let's get things in order. Seven days isn't too long, but it's not short either.
Truth-Seeker: Make sure to tell your families so they don't worry.
Don't Mock the Youth's Poverty: Seven days?
Don't Mock the Youth's Poverty: Thanks for the reminder, senior. I'll go tell my father and the others.
Dragon King Spits Water: Oh, I almost forgot! I should let my parents know, too.
Truth-Seeker: As long as you're all prepared.
Truth-Seeker: By the way, since we have newcomers, it's been about a month, right?
Truth-Seeker: That means the group shop should have new items.
Truth-Seeker: Have you all checked? Anything useful?
Everyone understood that Wu Tong wasn't referring to the items they'd uploaded but rather the chat group's monthly limited-time discount goods.
However…
Camera Girl: Uh… Wu Tong, there are five new items, but none of them seem useful.
Truth-Seeker: None?
Curious, Wu Tong opened the group shop interface.
As the panel appeared, five new limited-time items immediately caught his eye, replacing the previous ones entirely.
Wu Tong scrutinized them.
…
What the hell is this?
Toilet paper, a dead bug, a rusted kitchen knife, a piece of beast hide, and mineral water.
Not a single useful thing among them.
Refusing to give up, Wu Tong checked the details—only to be thoroughly disappointed.
The toilet paper, mineral water, and rusted knife were all ordinary items from a modern world, utterly useless to the group.
The dead bug was from a spirit-revival world, but it was just a normal corpse, weaker than even a first-tier ordinary human.
As for the beast hide, it was… mysterious. Aside from the label "beast hide," there was no other information.
But given its measly price of just 10 points, Wu Tong didn't hold out much hope.
"Whatever. Since I'm here, might as well buy something. Maybe I can analyze spiritual energy from the bug."
With a sigh, Wu Tong exchanged points for the insect corpse.
Just as he was about to exit, his gaze lingered on the beast hide. An inexplicable pull tugged at him, and after a moment's hesitation, he bought it too.
——
The instant Wu Tong acquired the beast hide…
Somewhere in the endless void.
Within a magnificent, boundless world formed from the convergence of countless multiverses—
The Xuanhuang Great World, a human-dominated multiversal cluster.
An old farmer, hoe in hand, paused mid-motion.
His eyes narrowed slightly as he looked into the distance—directly toward Wu Tong's location in the Douluo World.
"Hah. Interesting. I never thought that thing I tossed away would still be around?"
"After all this time, I assumed those guys would've snatched it up."
"Seems I was wrong."
"Hmm… Pure human bloodline, with the mark of the Ancestral Star. A transmigrator? Though that little brat Shakyamuni's scent is a bit strong on him."
"Talent's decent, but his learning's a mess. Ah well. Since you've found it, I'll lend a hand. Hope you can join me in discussing the Dao someday, kid."
With a chuckle, the old farmer flicked his right index finger.
A nearly imperceptible ripple shot forth, traversing infinite worlds at an incomprehensible speed—
In an instant, it crossed the void, pierced the world's membrane, bypassed the chat group's defenses…
And finally, merged into the beast hide in Wu Tong's hands.
The hide shimmered faintly for a fleeting moment before settling back into dormancy.
Satisfied, the old farmer resumed his unfinished task—hoeing the fields.
——
"Huh? Really just an ordinary hide? Well, consider it a lesson learned."
After a thorough inspection confirmed the beast's hide's apparent mundanity, Wu Tong shook his head in disappointment and tossed it aside.
Unnoticed by him, the discarded hide dissolved into a wisp of light and seeped into his body.
Next, Wu Tong handed the insect corpse to his AI for analysis, successfully extracting traces of spiritual energy.
Integrating it into his Pure Yang True Qi, he added spiritual energy as a new convertible energy source.
