Started out getting scumbags, but then invested in the invincible Empress.

Chapter 60: Having exploited a loophole, trying harder is impossible.



Chapter 60: Having exploited a loophole, trying harder is impossible.

Li Wudao rubbed his hands together, feeling a little excited.

He has a particular fondness for card system vulnerabilities, and this time he finally managed to exploit one again.

As the saying goes, a man cannot get rich without unexpected wealth, and a horse cannot get fat without night grazing.

The opportunity to get rich overnight is right in front of you. How many people can resist such temptation?

"Brother Lin, do you know what this is?"

Li Wudao smiled and took out the Great Teleportation Talisman, somewhat impatiently.

This symbol is about three inches long and is entirely yellowish-brown. The front is decorated with a complex pattern of circles and dots, interspersed with some unfamiliar ancient characters.

The back is covered with mysterious array patterns, densely packed and interwoven, making it impossible to discern the exact number of lines.

"Ah-"

The moment the Great Teleportation Talisman appeared, a faint flash of lightning appeared on its surface, and the surrounding space seemed to tremble for a moment, with faint ripples appearing.

"If I'm not mistaken, this should be a talisman, and of a high grade."

Lin Yan's eyes widened in astonishment as he stared intently at the teleportation talisman in Li Wudao's hand.

"You've got some knowledge, kid. Have you perhaps cultivated the art of talismans?"

Li Wudao was surprised, as the Xuantian Sect did not possess talismans; he had only just learned of this himself.

"Hehe, my father used to be a disciple of the Thunderfire Sect. This sect is good at talismans and pills, so I have some knowledge of them from a young age."

Lin Yan scratched his head.

"I see."

Li Wudao nodded, his thoughts drifting.

He remembered that the Thunderfire Sect was also a first-class sect in the southern part of the Eastern Wilderness, and this trip would also take them into the Hundred Flowers Secret Realm.

To be honest, he's quite interested in talismans; perhaps in the secret realm, he can truly experience the strengths and weaknesses of each other.

"Since you know a little about talismans, then I'll give you these talismans."

Li Wudao pushed the Great Teleportation Talisman forward and explained, "When you encounter a powerful enemy in the future, infuse it with your true essence and crush it to help you escape."

Lin Yan was shocked and trembled upon hearing this; this talisman was a life-saving artifact.

One talisman is worth more than a large city, and Li Wudao just gave it to him so easily?

"Brother Li, this... I really can't accept it anymore. I feel apprehensive and ashamed to receive it."

He retreated repeatedly, waving his hands, his face showing unease.

Li Wudao was not related to him, so he dared not ask for anything.

"Why are you being so polite with me, kid? The Great Chu Dynasty is still watching you. Chu Xinhui might make a move against you at any time. If you die, how will you avenge yourself and clear your name...?"

After much patient persuasion, Li Wudao put the Great Teleportation Talisman back in.

"I won't help you for nothing. These things aren't given to you for free. When you become successful in the future, I'll make you repay me double."

Seeing that Lin Yan was still hesitant, Li Wudao put on a stern face and pretended to be cold-hearted.

"I understand, Brother Li... I can't thank you enough!"

Lin Yan took a deep breath, his eyes burning, and swallowed back what he was about to say.

He is not a man of many words; rather than making empty promises, he prefers to keep them to himself and wait for the future to bring about some tangible results.

Li Wudao felt somewhat ashamed.

Damn it, now even if I rush to give them as gifts, nobody wants them. I almost lost my investment.

at this time,

His lips curled slightly, and the system notification finally sounded.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, your investment has been successful. Investment project: Great Teleportation Talisman x1]

[Reward feedback in progress...]

【warn! 】

[Host has been detected to have engaged in malicious violations; reward revoked!]

[The system has issued a serious warning: if the host continues to exploit system vulnerabilities to obtain rewards, the account will be immediately unbound!]

"......"

Li Wudao froze, his expression one of astonishment, the smile on his lips turning into bitterness.

He thought he had discovered a lucrative business opportunity and was about to make a fortune.

As a result, he was caught by the system as soon as he tried to exploit the loophole and was punished on the spot.

"System, please, please let me exploit the vulnerability one more time. I'll do anything."

Li Wudao pleaded shamelessly, his heart screaming.

The Emperor-level treasure was within reach, but it slipped through their fingers!

The system remained silent for several moments before responding.

[Host, do you have any shame? You're the worst host I've ever had.]

The mechanical female voice was cold and aloof, but one could detect a hint of disdain in it.

Li Wudao chuckled awkwardly, muttering to himself, "Saving face won't put food on the table. This damn system is so stingy..."

He sighed somewhat unwillingly; his second attempt to exploit the bug had also ended in failure.

"Brother Li, what's wrong? You don't look too good."

Lin Yan looked suspicious and somewhat worried.

The boy stood there dumbfounded, his expression shifting between laughter and tears, seemingly lost in thought.

"Cough cough... It's nothing."

Li Wudao snapped out of his daze, coughed awkwardly twice, and changed the subject, saying, "Keep those things safe and don't show them off. I have other things to do, so I'll take my leave first."

Immediately, he walked outside.

If we stayed any longer, I was afraid that Lin Yan would notice something amiss.

"Brother Li is truly a remarkable person..."

Lin Yan tilted his head, his eyes flashing with an unusual light, sensing that the boy was somewhat unfathomable.

“A newcomer needs at least the late stage of Body Tempering Realm to complete a sect mission. With these things Brother Li gave us, we have enough time left.”

Looking at the three treasures in his hands, he felt a warmth in his heart, and his expression was firm and confident.

The sect rules stipulate that new members must complete corresponding tasks within one month after the Newcomer Competition, otherwise they will be subject to severe penalties.

Previously, he really wasn't confident he could pass the mission assessment; he would most likely fail and be demoted to a menial disciple.

Now, with the pills given by Li Wudao, completing the mission within a month should not be difficult.

.......

Piaomiao Peak.

Li Wudao lay on a rattan chair, holding a fishing rod in his left hand and a wine pot in his right, basking in the sun, looking very content.

Compared to the tedious and boring cultivation, this kind of life is what he pursues.

Two hours passed.

As expected, the air force finished off the day, without even seeing a single fish.

Li Wudao didn't care much about this; he was used to it and remained very calm.

He wasn't fishing for fish, but for a feeling.

"With those three things, Lin Yan should have no problem surviving the newbie village."

Li Wudao crossed his legs and pondered to himself.

He thought highly of Lin Yan; he had good character, and if Lin Yan wanted revenge in the future, he could help him deal with the Great Chu Dynasty.

Alright, he sat up with a kick, stretched, and walked outside.

After a while,

Li Wudao returned carrying a plump local chicken.

He smacked his lips, drooling; he hadn't eaten meat in so long, his mouth was practically tasteless.

Since I had nothing to do today, I decided to roast a chicken and have some.

"Xiao Jiang, come to Misty Peak immediately, I have something important to discuss."

After speaking into the jade slip, Li Wudao rushed to the kitchen without waiting for a response.

After preparing the ingredients, he gathered some firewood and set up a simple barbecue grill by the lake.

Lin Yan has made the arrangements, and Jiang Churan can't be overlooked either. We need to handle investments from both sides; both are profitable, so we must treat them equally.

Even Li Wudao himself couldn't help but sigh.

This plan is so comprehensive and seamlessly connected; it's practically the work of a time management master.

at the same time.

Inside Xuantian Peak, Jiang Churan stopped cultivating, her bright, watery eyes filled with surprise.

"Has this guy gotten himself into trouble again?"

She frowned, reluctantly but still stood up briskly and pushed open the door to go out.

In any case, she had promised Li Wudao to protect him for a year, so she naturally wouldn't break her promise.

With that in mind, Jiang Churan immediately rushed towards Misty Peak.

She still remembered Misty Peak; she had been there several times in her previous life, so she easily found her way to the bottom of the valley.

At this moment, by the lake at Misty Peak, flames flickered and a fragrant aroma filled the air.

Li Wudao was squatting in front of the fire, turning a roasted chicken in his hands, and singing happily: "I love braised chicken wings..."

Upon seeing this scene, Jiang Churan was stunned, her eyes filled with confusion.

It seems like they have something important to discuss?

"Hey, Xiao Jiang, you got here so fast! By the way, how did you find me? I got lost the first time I did it..."

Li Wudao went up to her, smiling broadly.

He then beckoned the girl to sit on the rattan chair and pointed to the roast chicken, saying, "Wait a little longer, it will be ready soon."

"You called me over in such a hurry just to...eat this?"

Jiang Churan's eyelashes trembled slightly as she glared at him unhappily, her eyes filled with murderous intent.

She was worried that something might have gone wrong, but when she arrived, it turned out to be such a trivial matter.

"Yeah, you don't like eating chicken?"

Li Wudao stroked his chin, completely unaware, and said, "I have others too, there's bound to be one that will satisfy you."

Hearing this,

Jiang Churan lowered her eyes and sneered, "The Hundred Flowers Secret Realm will open in a few days. Instead of cultivating diligently, you're here eating chicken wings?"

Based on her current understanding, Li Wudao's strength is only enough to protect himself in the secret realm. If he encounters the geniuses from the other two sects, he will probably be overwhelmed.

If one were to unfortunately encounter a level three perfected demon beast, the chances of survival would be slim.

Gazing into the girl's angry, defiant eyes, Li Wudao's heart stirred slightly, and he muttered to himself, secretly chuckling:

"It's impossible to work hard, it's impossible to work hard in this lifetime. Only by cheating can I make a living like this..."

He understood Jiang Churan's resentment.

But if you can become stronger through the system, why waste your time and effort on ineffective struggles?

Moreover, with his current peak strength and numerous trump cards at his disposal, he is not afraid to fight among his peers and is not flustered at all.
