’T-The Demon Sealing Technique! This is a technique from the third floor! And it’s even the most powerful one!’ The young man looked at Yuan with a feeling of deep admiration in his gaze, as only the top geniuses with at least a major destiny are qualified to step onto the third floor.

However, while the Demon Sealing Technique is an extremely powerful technique that can seal even the strongest of demons with a single move, it is also extremely hard to learn, and it will take even top geniuses many years to even grasp the surface of this technique, hence why most people avoid it.

"T-This technique will be free of charge, esteemed guest..." The young man said to Yuan with a smile on his face.

"What?! Free of charge?!" Yu Rou exclaimed with disbelief on her face. How come she has to pay 200,000 gold coins for her technique whilst Yuan won’t be charged even a single coin? That’s outrageous!

"Yes, one can receive a technique of their choice for free if they qualified to enter the third floor," Yuan explained to her why he didn’t need to pay.

"Unfair..." Yu Rou sighed.

Sometime later, Yuan paid the young man 200,000 gold coins for Wind Blade, leaving only a little over 200,000 gold coins for himself.

’If I keep spending money at this rate, my wallet won’t last, and I’ll run out of money before Yu Rou returns to school!’ Yuan cried inwardly.

However, no matter how much it might pain his heart or wallet, he won’t be humble when it comes to helping Yu Rou.

"Thank you for your purchase, esteemed guests!"

The young man handed the techniques back to Yuan who then handed the Wind Blade to Yu Rou.

"Thank you, brother!" Yu Rou accepted the Wind Blade with an ecstatic expression on her face.

Sometime later, they left the Myriad of Techniques.

"Although I won’t be here for long, I hope to see you again in the future, Daoist Yu Tian," Zhu Yuying said to him at the entrance.

"Yes, thank you for everything, too." Yuan nodded at her.

After leaving the Myriad of Techniques, Yuan asked Yu Rou, "What should we do now?"

"It’s getting late, brother. And it’s almost time for dinner, so we’ll stop here for today."

"Okay, I will see you on the other side," Yuan said.

Yu Rou logged off a few seconds later.

"We’ll be back tomorrow, Xiao Hua."

Xiao Hua nodded and disappeared into his necklace.

Yuan also logged off shortly later.

"..."

"..."

"W-What the heck?"

Yuan immediately frowned after logging off, as a strong smell that resembled rotten eggs suddenly assaulted his nose.

"What’s this smell?! It smells like shit!" Yuan felt like puking, but then he realized something.

’Wait a second... this smell... I have smelled this awful smell before...’ Yuan suddenly recalled the impurities his body had discharged.

However, that only made him more confused. Why would he be smelling something that he’d experienced in the game?

A moment later, the door opened, and Yu Rou walked into his room

"Brother, here I am— Ahhhh! Brother?! Are you okay?!" Yu Rou suddenly shrieked in a terrified voice shortly after entering his room.

"W-What happened, Yu Rou?!" Yuan was startled by her shouting.

"Why does this room smell so awful, and what are those black gunk sticking to your body?!"

Yu Rou exclaimed.

"B-Black gunks...?" Yuan immediately turned speechless after hearing her words.

Although he couldn’t see his own body, in Yu Rou’s eyes, his body was pretty much submerged in this black gunk, looking like someone had poured a bucket of waste on him.

"P-Please wait for a minute, brother! I will be right back!" Yu Rou immediately ran back outside to look for the servants.

Meanwhile, Yuan was pondering with a serious frown on his face.

’Black gunk... Impurities? No, that shouldn’t be possible. Why would my real body discharge impurities when it happened in the game? But this awful smell is exactly like the impurities in the game,’ Yuan pondered and pondered, but he was unable to find an explanation for this phenomenon. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

"What if... what if what happens in the game also affects the real world...?" Yuan mumbled in a low voice before turning silent again.

A moment later, he laughed, "Hahaha! What nonsense am I thinking? There’s no way that’s possible! If that was the case, wouldn’t I also be able to cultivate in the real world?"

After laughing for a few seconds, Yuan suddenly stopped laughing and mumbled to him, "Well... it won’t hurt to try..."

Yuan took a few deep breaths as he would before cultivation, and he tried to recall the technique Heaven’s Secret Art.

A moment later, almost as though it was embedded inside his memories, the scripture appeared inside his head. However, just because he can remember the contents of the technique does not actually mean he’ll be able to use it.

A few more moments later, Yuan took another deep breath before he started reciting the cultivation technique ’Consuming Heaven Technique’ as though he was cultivating in the game.

One second... two seconds... three seconds...

"Ouch!"

Yuan suddenly cried out loud after feeling sharp pain appear all over his body, feeling as though he was being stabbed by needles everywhere, which quickly forced him to stop cultivating.

"W-What was that...?"

Yuan mumbled in a dazed voice, as he wasn’t expecting anything to happen. However, to his surprise, his body actually had a reaction when he tried to cultivate! Even though it was unpleasant and very painful, it is still a reaction nonetheless!

And wanting to confirm that it was not just his imaginations, Yuan tried to cultivate again.

A few seconds later, the same pain occurred within his body.

"Ah! It hurt! It really hurts! Hahahaha! It actually hurts! I can actually feel something!" Yuan laughed loudly, as it has been a long time since he had felt any profound sensation from his body ever since it became numb and crippled.

Sometime later, Yu Rou returned to his room with a wheelchair and some servants.

*Cough* *Cough*

The servants were caught off guard by the intense smell and began coughing, feeling like they were being choked by the stench.

"Brother, let’s get you out of that bed and clean those black gunk off your body. I have also called for a doctor who will be here shortly to look at your body." Yu Rou said to him as she pulled his body from the sticky impurities with effort and while ignoring the smell that was assaulting her nose.

Once Yuan was seated in the wheelchair, Yu Rou said to the servants, "I want this place cleaned up by tomorrow morning. However, keep some of that black gunk for the doctor to examine later."

"Yes, Young Lady."

The servants bowed to her with respect, not daring to utter a single complaint in her presence.

After Yu Rou left the room with Yuan, the servants immediately began to curse under their breaths.

"What the heck! Why do we have to clean after that cripple?!"

"What even are these black gunks? It’s all sticky and nasty, not to mention its horrendous smell!"

"This is probably caused by the young master’s condition. I have never seen anything like this before, but I won’t be surprised he dies within the next few days..."

"Hmph! The faster he passes the better!"

"I feel bad for the young lady, who wasted so many hours of her life tending to him only for him to die like that..."

While the servants started cleaning the stinky room and the dirty bed, Yu Rou entered the bathroom with Yuan.

After taking off Yuan’s clothes, Yu Rou used the showerhead to rinse the impurities off his body.

Once that was done, she began scrubbing his body that was still sitting on the wheelchair with some fragrant body wash. However, because the stench from the impurities was quite strong, Yu Rou had to wash and rinse his body three times before the rotten smell could fully disappear.

"I’m sorry, Yu Rou..." Yuan sighed.

"What are you saying now? I have been washing your body like this once a week for years now— this is not much different except for the smell." Yu Rou said to him.

And she continued, "I can only hope that it’s nothing serious and the doctor can explain what had caused that black gunk to appear... It’s sticky and oily like wet slime, but I have never seen anything like this before..."

"Me too..." Yuan said.

While he has an idea of what the black gunks are and why it appeared, he didn’t dare to say it to her without confirmation, as he’d only sound crazy for saying such a thing.

A few minutes later, after rinsing Yuan’s body for the fourth time, Yu Rou said, "Give me a moment to rinse myself off."

Sometime later, once Yu Rou cleaned the impurities that were sticking to her body, she pulled Yuan’s light body off the wheelchair and carried him into the massive bathtub that was right beside them before sitting in the bathtub with him.

"How do you feel right now, brother? Does it hurt anywhere? While there are no injuries on your body, I am still worried about your condition." Yu Rou asked him while hugging his back from behind.

"No, I am perfectly fine," he quickly responded.

"Haaa... When I first saw you submerged in that black gunk, I was nearly scared to death, thinking that something terrible might have happened to you," she sighed in relief afterward.

However, she still wasn’t free of worries, as she still needed to know why his body discharged that black gunk.
