CHAPTER 172: 171. WATCHING DRAMA BENEFITS! (1/4)

Hearing Wen Ping’s voice, Qin Shan quickly turned around, shedding his casual demeanor, and squeezed out an apologetic smile, "Sect Leader!"

The rest also stood up and respectfully said, "Sect Leader!"

Under the reflection of the deep pool, Wen Ping slowly walked across the wooden bridge and asked Qin Shan and the others, "Why did you stop fighting?"

Qin Shan quickly responded, "Sect Leader, we were just joking around, not really fighting."

Wen Ping said, "It’s fine. Those who like spoilers can fight freely, since you two are evenly matched in strength."

"Fight freely over spoilers?"

"It means telling you the story ahead of time from Immortal Slayer; that’s what’s called a spoiler."

"Oh."

Qin Shan nodded.

The word ’spoiler’ felt odd, but since Wen Ping said it’s okay to fight over spoilers, he immediately turned his gaze towards Yu Mo.

As if telling Yu Mo: Just wait, I’ll definitely give you a beating later, Sect Leader said it’s okay!

When Qin Shan stopped talking, Yang Lele, filled with curiosity, asked, "Sect Leader, what were Elder Qin and the others talking about earlier? Something about Zhang Xiaofan and Bloodthirsty Pearl?"

Wen Ping responded, "Elder Qin was talking about ’Immortal Slayer.’"

Just as Wen Ping responded, the system’s voice sounded in his ear.

"Task released!"

[Side Task - Leisure Life of a Super Sect]

[As a super sect, you can’t just focus on hard cultivation; you need a balance of work and rest. So, please complete the following conditions within today.]

[Task Objective: Have all members of the Immortal Sect watch ’Immortal Slayer’]

[Task Reward: Unlock the function of acquiring items from the Immortal Slaying World while watching the show, such as clothing from the Cyan Cloud Sect, Flying Swords, and possibly even Bloodthirsty Pearls or the Immortal Slaying Sword Array!]

Wen Ping immediately thought: System, what kind of task is this?

Isn’t this encouraging everyone to waste time watching a show?

The system quickly explained, "Has the host forgotten the task reward? After completing the task, watching the show has the potential to acquire items from the Immortal Slaying World, like clothing from the Cyan Cloud Sect, Flying Swords, or maybe even a Bloodthirsty Pearl or an Immortal Slaying Sword Array! How can this be a waste of time?"

"Usable?"

"Of course usable."

"Awesome!"

Wen Ping couldn’t help but exclaim.

At this moment, Yang Lele’s voice came again, "Sect Leader, what is ’Immortal Slayer’?"

After receiving the task, Wen Ping patiently explained, "Another world inside the Viewing Room. A world without the Meridian Gate, without Transformed Great Demons, where cultivators can fly on swords across the sky."

"A world where you fly on swords! Sect Leader, you didn’t say that when you introduced the Viewing Room last time."

Yang Lele was speechless.

The sect leader previously said the Viewing Room was just for passing time.

Now, it turns out you can go to another world where you can fly by stepping on a sword. How is this a waste of time?

Unaware of Yang Lele’s thoughts, Wen Ping continued, "’Immortal Slayer’ is both the world and the story of that world."

Yang Lele could no longer hold back and quickly said, "Sect Leader, can we go to that world and see it?"

Wen Ping was delighted and immediately nodded, "Sure. You can view it as an observer for 20 gold per hour. To experience it by possessing someone in the Immortal Slaying World, it’s 100 gold per hour."

Wen Ping didn’t explain much about the high-tech use of the Viewing Room.

Perhaps this explanation was the most straightforward for them to understand.

Wen Ping’s explanation immediately piqued everyone’s interest.

"Another world! And you can possess someone!"

"Sect Leader, I want to go too!"

"Sect Leader, count me in!"

Everyone raised their hands.

Zhao Yi didn’t raise his hand but got nudged by Qin Mo, who then said, "Together? As the junior, I’ll treat."

"Sure."

Zhao Yi, delighted, quickly raised his hand as well.

"Then I’ll join in and take a look too,"

Qin Shan said, smiling as he echoed the group.

When everyone arrived at the Viewing Room and put on their glasses, the originally quiet room erupted with everyone’s exclamations.

Perhaps it was due to amazement.

Or perhaps they just wanted to join in with others’ screams.

Yang Lele couldn’t help but marvel, "Wow! No wonder Elder Qin wouldn’t even eat, coming back to the dorm area so late at night, he must have been in that world not wanting to leave. Gosh, everyone in this world can fly, it’s so scary!"

Then, when the Immortal Slaying World opened and expanded slowly.

Everyone was stunned.

Sword Flying!

Summoning lightning at will!

Even the guardian divine beast of the Cyan Cloud Sect left them speechless.

Meanwhile, as everyone started watching ’Immortal Slayer’, the side task was completed successfully.

[Side Task Completed!]

Glancing at the pop-up window, Wen Ping felt a sense of reflection.

Encouraging disciples to spend cultivation time on watching shows, as the sect leader, he felt a bit guilty.

The next moment, collect the task reward!

Immediately following, the system’s voice quietly arrived, "Host, watching ’Immortal Slayer’ gives a 0.5% probability of acquiring items from the Immortal Slaying World. As the host, you have a one-time chance to get an item with 100% probability. Use it?"

"Use it!"

Having said that, Wen Ping put on his glasses and, before entering the Immortal Slaying World, quietly murmured in his heart, "System, does this random chance mean any item can pop up?"

The system responded, "The host just needs to keep watching. The 100% acquisition ability will activate at a moment, allowing you to obtain an item in the current scene."

"I have to keep watching?"

Wen Ping felt a bit helpless, but could only continue from where he last left off.

After a few hours, during the Seven Veins Martial Arts Tournament.

The system pop-up suddenly appeared.

[100% Acquisition Activated]

[Acquired Item: Xiao Fan’s Fire Rod]

...

The next day.

In the kitchen, everyone was dining, with a wide array of delicacies on the table, which was usually never enough, today they were just engrossed talking about ’Immortal Slayer’.

Huai Ye animatedly said, "Those disciples of the Cyan Cloud Sect are really dumb. That Fire Rod is way better than their magical artifacts, and they still have the nerve to mock Zhao Xiaofan. If it were me, I’d smack them one by one, teach them a lesson, and show them how great I am. They wouldn’t dare underestimate me again."

Yang Lele immediately whacked Huai Ye on the back of the head, feigning scolding, "Are you stupid? You observed and know the Fire Rod is no ordinary item, but those disciples didn’t know that."

"Yelling at me!" Huai Ye glared back instantly.

Sitting nearby, Qin Shan sighed, holding chopsticks, showing no interest in the dishes on the table, he sighed again and said, "Poor Zhang Xiaofan, not liked by his master, not liked by fellow disciples, and even the woman he loves loves someone else. The only companions he has are the Three-Eyed Spirit Monkey and the Fire Rod. Amidst the crowd, the liveliness, but he exudes an aura of solitude that brings tears to my eyes."

...

Listening to everyone’s murmurs, Wen Ping smiled wryly.

He knew that watching ’Immortal Slayer’ would lead to these results.

Television itself already captivates people, and after the system’s modification, its allure becomes even more fatal.

(Sorry, there was an issue with today’s update. I rewrote it several times... Three Chapters were modified from eight o’clock until now, only just managed to finalize it!)
