<h4>Chapter 1085: I don’t have any money to give you, it seems like there is only one way!</h4>
<strong>Trantor: </strong>GodBrandy <strong>Editor: </strong>Kurisu
It was merely a treasured banknote that circted in the ancient Heavenly City, and it definitely wasn’t a creature of the Netherworld. Why had it suddenly appeared in the Demonic Tribtion Realm? What did Skrk do to it?
The banknote then remembered that it was in its cave, happily counting its spirit stones until just now—it was its favorite pastime. But, all of a sudden, it felt that its feet were quite itchy––its feet referred to the bottom part of the banknote.
Then, it bent over to look at its ‘feet’.
It was then that it suddenly found itself in a trance. Afterward, the face of Xuan Nu Sect’s Skrk appeared right in front of it, and then, she invited it to transcend the tribtion with her.
What a joke!
Was the heavenly tribtion something to transcend together with others?
As for those who did attempt to transcend the tribtion with others, if they weren’t stupid, what were they?
It was a banknote that had survived since the times of the ancient Heavenly City and developed intelligence by chance. It hadn’t been easy for it to reach its current realm, and it didn’t want to apany Skrk in her crazy ideas.
So, the banknote decided to reject Skrk’s invitation. It gritted its teeth, and said, “I refuse! I will not apany you in transcending the tribtion! It’s a path leading to death. Besides, Skrk, what did you do to me? Why is a part of my body in your hands?”
“No, no, no, I’ve never done anything to you.” Skrk slightly smiled, and said, “You and I were just cooperating with one another. Our rtionship is one of equals, and our friendship shallst forever. I would never do something that might cost me the cooperative rtionship between us.”
The banknote gnashed its teeth as it said, “Then why is a part of my body in your hands?”
Skrk replied, “It was you that tore it off and said you would give it to me as a gift.”
“Bullshiet! How could such a thing be possible?” the banknote said angrily. “Have you ever seen anyone tear a part of their body off just to gift it to someone?”
“You,” Skrk said.
The banknote angrily said, “Stop kidding, Skrk. Today, if you can’t properly exin it, our cooperative rtionship is over!”
“Everything I said is true. If there was any falsehood in anything I’ve said, then may I get struck by lightning from the heavens... Hm, wait, I’m currently transcending a tribtion and getting struck by lightning very hard.” Skrk smiled, and then slowly said, “Let me slowly exin it, then. I remember that it was just an ordinary night. Fellow Daoist Banknote, it seems that you were drunk, for you did not even know which powerful monster you fought, and your body was all torn up. After the fight, you took the torn parts of your body with you as you rode a sword to get to my immortal cave, asking me to mend your body for you. You and I had cooperated for several years, so I used expensive materials to mend your body as a sign of our friendship. After I finished fixing you up, I looked for you to settle the bill. The materials I used to repair you were very expensive, so I couldn’t just suffer a big loss without getting anything in return.”
Well, Skrk did have a point there.
“It’s only natural to pay off one’s debts, but what does that have to do with the part of my body in your hands?” the banknote said with eyes wide open. Skrk couldn’t have taken its body as payment, right?
“Listen to me first.” While taking on the explosions of the demonic tribtion, Skrk continued, “At that time, when you were about to repay me, you suddenly shouted, ‘I don’t have any money to give you, it seems like there is only one way’, and rolled around noisily on the ground. As I saw that you were still drunk, I let you rest first. After waiting for you to regain rity, I went to settle the ounts with you once again. However, I didn’t expect that...while rolling around, you would suddenly bend over and tore off arge part of your own body, handing it to me. At that time, you said that as your body was a banknote, it should be something that could be used as payment! You were very forceful back then, and you even told me that there was a portion of your will in that torn part of your body, and as long as I stimte it a little, I would be able to draw in your consciousness.”
Banknote: “...”
“I didn’t want to take Fellow Daoist’s body, but the drunken you was being unreasonable, forcing me to take it, even saying that you would take my not taking it as me looking down on you, and that you would refuse to cooperate again if I didn’t take it. And so, I had to take that part of you. In addition, I should remind Fellow Daoist that, in the end, I had to use other materials to mend your newly torn up body. As such, the second fee still hasn’t been liquidated,” Xuan Nu Sect’s Skrk said calmly.
Banknote: “...”
It seemed that such a thing had really happened—it did remember that it had drunk a little bit too much one time. It should have been when it had teamed up with other people to explore some ruins, where they were able to acquire some immortal wine, which they then drank at ater time, probably?
It couldn’t even remember how it drank the wine. Did it immerse its entire body in the immortal wine? Otherwise, how else could it drink the immortal wine?
Anyway, it had gotten drunk, and it did vaguely remember having a fight with a powerful monster. Then, when it woke up, it found itself in Skrk’s immortal cave.
The banknote then asked, “So, what happened after my feet were... I mean, the bottom part of my body was torn? Did you patch it up?”
“Exactly,” Xuan Nu Sect’s Skrk said. “My skills are pretty good. Moreover, I guess that until now, you didn’t realize that the bottom part of your body was reced.”
The banknote could only feel depressed.
A part of its body was now in Xuan Nu Sect’s Skrk’s hands, and it was also true that its consciousness was being drawn to this small part of its body, which was something that could not be changed.
The banknote asked, “Tell me, how can I get you to return this part of my body?”
Skrk immediately replied, “How about transcending this tribtion with me? You see, my heavenly tribtion is simply too weak; there’s no meaning to it at all.”
The banknote said angrily, “What’s wrong with it being weak? Aren’t you just seeking death with this attitude?!”
“Seriously, this isn’t the first time you and I are cooperating.” Skrk smiled. Then, her icy blue eyes blinked. “When have I not been seeking death?”
Banknote: “...”
Skrk encouragingly said, “Just consider it. As long as you lend me a hand here, you just have to wait for me to return to the main world, and the part of your body which I have will be returned to you! I remember your power as you also, in fact, are on the verge of ascending. With just one thought, you could draw in the heavenly tribtion. So, it would be better for you to take advantage of this opportunity and not only get back your lower body, but also draw in the heavenly tribtion here in the Demonic Tribtion Realm and ascend it together with me.”
The banknote said, “In the case that the heavenly tribtion descends and destroys that part of my body, wouldn’t I be incurring a great loss?”
“Don’t worry, you just have to believe in my strength,” Skrk said.
“How can I possibly just leave everything up to you in your current conditions? This is why I don’t want to do it,” the banknote said.
Skrk looked terrible right now, with her body full of bruises, and with the tribtion lightning striking it from time to time.
“Sigh... Fellow Daoist Banknote, there’s something I didn’t want to tell you. Although it doesn’t really matter, but anyway, I’ll just exin it to you,” Skrk said slowly. “This part of your body is now in my hands. Even if you don’t draw in the heavenly tribtion and strengthen my tribtion, I could just throw this part away, and it would be directly blown to ashes amidst the demonic tribtion ongoing here.”
Banknote: “...”
“Theplete destruction of that part of your body should be the worst oue for you. However, if you are willing to help me, I would give my best to protect that part of your body, Fellow Daoist. Anyway, even putting my protection aside, there would at least be a possibility for survival for you. Therefore, this is a situation of ‘life or death’. Now, do you still have any reason to refuse?” Skrk smiled sweetly.
Banknote responded, “F*ck you!”
“Make up your mind, Fellow Daoist,” Skrk said. “Let me just remind you that I won’t be able to support my defensive formation much longer. At most, there is 10 seconds before the defensive formation copses. At that time, this part of your body will be exposed to the tribtion lightning.”
“I’ll help!” the banknote said bitterly. “But I have one condition: once I help you draw in the heavenly tribtion, you must release the consciousness in this portion of my body right away and let it return to my main body.”
The consciousness in that part of its body didn’t want to apany the insane Skrk as she transcended the demonic tribtion.
“Fellow Daoist, you’re really frank. I agree to your terms,” Skrk said. “You just have to use this part of your body to draw in the heavenly tribtion and increase the power of my demonic tribtion. Regardless of whether it seeds or not, I will definitely release your consciousness and let it return to you.”
The banknote took a deep breath, and that part of its body circted its spiritual energy...
Could it really draw in the heavenly tribtion in the Demonic Tribtion Realm?
The banknote and Skrk both had no idea what kind of changes would take ce, but if it didn’t work, the banknote would only need to use that part of its body to interfere with the demonic tribtion, which would then still be strengthened ording to the principles of the world.
??????
At this moment, the ball of liquid metal remainedpletely focused.
<i>She wants to use the heavenly tribtion of her monster pet to strengthen the power of her demonic tribtion. This person, does she really want to seek death?</i>
<i>However, with me here at the side, the power of the demonic tribtion won’t increase too much, </i>the ball of liquid metal thought to itself. It had to make sure that Skrk would transcend her tribtion smoothly, and it definitely couldn’t allow the power of the demonic tribtion to increase randomly.
The banknote was regarded by the ball of liquid metal as Xuan Nu Sect’s Skrk’s monster pet.
??????
As the banknote released its spiritual energy, it was then identified as a disruptor by the heavenly tribtion.
In the sky, the power of the demonic tribtion was raised by a little.
Xuan Nu Sect’s Skrk thought, <i>There’s an effect, but... it isn’t enough.</i>
“Boom~”
In the sky, another wave of tribtion lightning descended.
This bolt of tribtion lightning was purple-ck, but inside, it contained purple-golden lightning, making the bolt of tribtion lightning appear like a blood vessel. The tribtion lightning had clearly mutated.
The mutated tribtion lightning was like a sword, cutting down on Skrk’s body.
