Chapter 34
C34 – Dragon Blood Divine Emperor
“Okay, thanks in advance. I’ll be sure to pay you back once I get my paycheck.”
Pei Yu had successfully borrowed a hundred million from Qian Wenwei.
Soon after, the funds landed in Pei Yu’s bank account.
“System, show yourself.”
Flush with cash, Pei Yu’s tone was now laced with a newfound arrogance.
The System inquired, “Does the Host wish to proceed with the expenditure…”
Without hesitation, Pei Yu commanded, “Buy.”
Pei Yu was on a roll, exuding confidence!
He was in a buying frenzy, sparing no expense.
After all, he wasn’t short on cash.
“Congratulations, Host, for spending 296,676,800 yuan on ‘Dragon Blood Divine Emperor.’ Enjoy your reading.”
“I just dropped 300 million on a book. How could I not be thrilled?”
Pei Yu’s grin belied the twinge of pain in his heart.
His 300 million had vanished in an instant.
He dreaded to think how much more he’d have to shell out for the next great god novel.
The first time he read a great god novel, ‘Lethal Punch,’ it only cost him a few tens of millions for the whole book.
But now, less than ten days later, another novel in the same category, ‘Dragon Blood Divine Emperor,’ cost more than ten times that amount.
The price hike was nothing short of staggering.
“Having plenty of money sure comes in handy, especially for someone like me. More is always better.”
Pei Yu mused for a moment before diving into ‘Dragon Blood Divine Emperor.’
“Here’s hoping for a big payoff, or else that 300 million is down the drain.”
He eagerly began his reading journey.
By the end of the night, Pei Yu glanced at the clock and realized he hadn’t even finished the first ten chapters.
“Why has this novel suddenly become so impenetrable?”
He found ‘Dragon Blood Divine Emperor’ to be far more challenging than ‘Lethal Punch.’
It was like a grade-schooler trying to make sense of a high school textbook – utterly baffling.
He soldiered on, barely making it to chapter ten, and still, the plot eluded him.
“If I keep up this pace, I’ll be lucky to finish ‘Dragon Blood Divine Emperor’ in a month, let alone grasp its meaning. At this rate, I might never master it in my lifetime.”
Pei Yu couldn’t help but feel overwhelmed. If he couldn’t grasp the content of the book, finishing it would be pointless. “This is so frustrating. It’s just too tough for me.”
He possessed a hundredfold more talent now, yet reading Dragon Blood Divine Emperor remained a daunting task. For the old Pei Yu, it would have been like trying to decipher a script from the heavens.
As Pei Yu’s brow furrowed in consternation, a new voice echoed in his mind.
“Congratulations, Host, on acquiring a thousandfold talent.”
“Thousandfold talent?”
It struck like a bolt from the blue, and Pei Yu’s mind buzzed with sudden clarity.
Previously, when he couldn’t understand the book, the system granted him a hundredfold talent. Now, faced with confusion, the system had upped the ante to a thousandfold!
“The system is truly a godsend. My investment wasn’t in vain!”
The system’s boon left Pei Yu ecstatic. It was akin to dropping your toilet paper into the bowl and, in your moment of helplessness, a goddess bestows upon you a fresh roll.
With a surge of exhilaration, Pei Yu eagerly dove back into the book.
With the blessing of a thousandfold talent, the words flowed effortlessly. Concepts that once baffled him were now swiftly processed and understood, his brain whirring with rapid analysis and conclusions.
“I’ve got it.”
“What a rush!”
Time slipped away unnoticed, and after another day, Pei Yu had conquered the formidable novel.
Thanks to the thousandfold talent, his understanding accelerated.
His path to cultivation knew no bounds!
