266: Li Wudi's Deal with the Players!

On the other side, in the North Cold Immortal Domain, Chu Changge spent nearly a year utilizing the domineering Devouring Immortal Art to finally refine everything he had obtained from the Primordial Divine Dynasty Treasury.

Now, his cultivation has reached the Peak Great Emperor Realm.

However, he always felt that something was missing to Breakthrough to the True Immortal Realm cultivation.

He couldn't quite put this feeling into words.

After all, becoming a True Immortal was inherently difficult.

It required not only talent and Opportunity but also luck.

When Chu Changge emerged from seclusion, Su Ningxue came forward to greet him.

"Brother Changge, how is it?"

"Did you succeed?"

Chu Changge shook his head without saying a word.

Seeing Chu Changge's disappointed look, Su Ningxue immediately guessed what had happened.

She quickly comforted him, "Brother Changge, don't worry. Failing a Breakthrough once is no big deal. There will be many more opportunities in the future. With your talent, you will eventually Breakthrough to that Realm."

Hearing this, Chu Changge smiled and said, "Don't worry, Xue'er, I know!"

"Let's go! Since I'm bored after my Breakthrough anyway, we can take a trip to the Sea of Life!"

Chu Changge remembered his business; since he had already reached the Peak Great Emperor Realm...

It was time for him to get down to business.

Perhaps the Opportunity to become a True Immortal was right there in the Sea of Life.

Su Ningxue nodded, and after she and Chu Changge bid farewell to Yun Shu, they prepared to depart.

At that moment, Li Jiaorou found them again.

"Young Master Li, I wonder if I could go with you as well? There is something very important to me at the Sea of Life!"

Chu Changge looked at Li Jiaorou in surprise.

Su Ningxue, standing beside him, was clearly not very happy.

After all, she wanted a trip for two with her Brother Changge. Now that a huge third wheel had appeared, how could she whisper sweet nothings to him on the way?

Although Su Ningxue was very dissatisfied with Li Jiaorou's behavior...

She didn't say anything.

After all, she didn't have the right to reject Li Jiaorou on Chu Changge's behalf.

Moreover, over the past year, Li Jiaorou had given her many good things, which were all true immortal dao fruits. Her Revered Master had said that if she obtained these true immortal dao fruits, the probability of her breaking through to True Immortal in the future would be greatly increased.

Those were treasures that every Great Emperor dreamed of.

At this moment, a heavenly mandate selection panel appeared in front of Chu Changge.

[Ding! Current experience detected, triggering Heavens Mandate Choice!]

[Option 1: Agree to take Li Jiaorou to the Sea of Life. Reward: Immortal Artifact, sea-calming pearls!]

[Option 2: Refuse to take Li Jiaorou to the Sea of Life. Reward: Emperor Weapon, Eternal Ancient Ruler of Exotic Fire!]

[Please choose...]

Several notification sounds exploded in Chu Changge's mind.

Looking at the prompt, Chu Changge's eyes were filled with surprise.

The rewards this time were very generous, and the gap between the two options' rewards was also huge.

One was an Immortal Artifact, while the other was an Emperor Weapon.

It was clear that if he took Li Jiaorou along, he would definitely encounter something very dangerous.

But not taking her... Chu Changge thought for a moment and immediately made a decision.

Bullsh*t!

He was already in the Immortal Realm, yet it still wanted him to choose those trashy rewards? That was just asking him to die faster.

Chu Changge then smiled and said, "Alright, I can take you! However, on this journey, I hope Princess Li will follow my lead!"

Li Jiaorou breathed a sigh of relief. Just now, she was really afraid that Chu Changge would not take her for Su Ningxue's sake.

Now it seemed that wouldn't be the case.

With Chu Changge accompanying her to the Sea of Life, her business would be much more secure.

Thinking of this, Li Jiaorou smiled and said, "Thank you, Young Master Chu."

After saying that, she looked at Su Ningxue and said, "Sister Xue'er, I'm not interrupting your world for two, am I?"

Su Ningxue rolled her eyes internally.

Why did those words sound so wrong?

She had already interrupted, yet she still put on such an act to ask.

What was she trying to do?

Su Ningxue replied with a smile, "Not at all. It would be boring if it were just Brother Changge and me on the way. Now that Sister Jiaorou is joining us, the journey will surely be very exciting!"

Chu Changge listened to the conversation between the two women from the side, feeling that the tone and atmosphere were a bit strange.

However, he didn't think too much about it.

At this moment, he was immersed in the new Immortal Artifact he had obtained.

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for completing Option 1. Reward: Immortal Artifact, sea-calming pearls!]

[sea-calming pearls: Immortal Artifact. There are twenty-four beads in total, each containing the power of one heaven. They can evolve into the Twenty-Four Heavens, and when fully activated, they can unleash infinite power!]

Chu Changge looked at the twenty-four bright beads in the System space.

These beads could trap or kill enemies, having endless uses. With this Immortal Artifact, combined with the Kongtong Seal in his hand, the langqiao ancient sword, and other items, the dangers of this journey would likely be much reduced.

Chu Changge snapped back to reality and then said to the two women, "Alright, let's set off for the Sea of Life!"

...On the other side, in a forest sea filled with Trees of Life.

Invincible Li, who had escaped from the Black Heart Mining Area, had a dark expression.

"Damn Black Heart Mining Area, they actually took my Pure Yang Body. Once my cultivation recovers, I will definitely flatten all the Black Heart Mining Areas in the Immortal Realm!"

Ever since Invincible Li was violated by that burly man in the Black Heart Mining Area, his whole mindset had changed.

Now he had come to the Sea of Life only to find the Life Spiritual Liquid here to wash away the filth on his body and return to his Pure Yang Body.

At this moment, Invincible Li suddenly discovered a group of strange humanoid creatures.

He could understand the words they spoke, but he didn't understand what they meant.

"Everyone, do you think if we can't kill that world boss the System wants us to kill, we'll really be wiped out by them?"

"I'm not sure, I don't know. But in Water Blue Star, many people have already been killed for resisting the System's tasks. We can only follow the System's instructions to raid that world boss!"

"Waaa! Damn it, I shouldn't have listened to the recommendations of those big shots on the forum. '100% virtual game', 'a real third world'—it's all a lie. I really don't want to play this game anymore!"

"..."

Listening to these people, although Invincible Li didn't understand what the "System" or "BOSS" they mentioned were, he had heard such strange talk a long time ago.

"Are these monsters summoned by the Calamity Master?"

Invincible Li raised an eyebrow. After all, he had lived for a long time and knew many ancient legends. He suddenly thought of something.

Then, with a grin, he stepped out from the shadows and walked toward the group of players.

"Not good, Captain, an elite mob is approaching us!"

The moment Invincible Li appeared, players immediately noticed him.

Invincible Li raised both hands and said to them, "Don't be nervous, I'm not here to kill you. I am Invincible Li, and I want to make a deal with you!"
