Chapter 2477 Reversing Karma through Overdraft
"I, the resourceful Song Shuhang, have returned!"
Song Shuhang silently thought to himself.
Meanwhile, his ethereal smoky form spread out, discreetly gathering all the treasures scattered about. Even though these were treasures expelled by King Kun, Song Shuhang was a man, and cleanliness was the least of his concerns when surrounded by a trove of valuable items.
Each item strewn across this land was of the highest quality, worthy of collection by immortal cultivators.
However, Song Shuhang was about to spend them all!
Oh my, it"s heart-wrenching.
Especially considering that these treasures had already fallen into his grasp.
Once in his possession, these treasures would be entirely his... This was worlds apart from spending someone else"s money! If he were to splurge them all at once, it would undoubtedly go down in history as Song Shuhang"s most extravagant spending spree!
"These treasures hold significant value," the voice of White Dragon Sister chimed in.
"Precisely, King Kun has quite the discerning eye," Pavilion Master Chu agreed.
Song Shuhang took a deep breath and gritted his teeth.
Within his smoky form, a pair of hands materialized, and he initiated the secret technique, Divine Strike.
If he allowed White Dragon Sister and Pavilion Master Chu to continue their conversation, his determination would undoubtedly waver, and he might flee with the treasure and miss the prime opportunity to vanquish the Heavenly Dao Molt Ball.
Men must be ruthless with themselves!
When it"s time to make a decision, act resolutely!
The treasures enshrouded by the smoky haze gravitated toward Song Shuhang"s awaiting hands.
The first treasure was a silver page inscribed with cryptic symbols.
This particular treasure was the lightest and swiftest.
Its flight speed outpaced all others, eagerly hurling itself into Song Shuhang"s "pay-to-win strike."
Just as it was about to plunge into the radiant sphere of the "pay-to-win strike," Song Shuhang abruptly clasped his hands together, forcefully interrupting the ritual.
The silver page gently descended into his palm.
Simultaneously, information regarding the secret appraisal technique flooded Song Shuhang"s mind. Moments ago, when the silver page was about to join the "pay-to-win strike," it grazed Song Shuhang"s fingertip, inadvertently activating the secret appraisal technique.
[Secret Treasure - Karma Book Remnant Page: The Karma Book is a supreme divine tome that records the mysteries of the law of karma. Each page catalogues various karma forces. This page doc.u.ments the reversal of karma—overdraft karma, where the effect precedes the cause! Holding this page bestows the power to reverse karma!] A high-level appraisal notification materialized in his thoughts.
Song Shuhang was speechless.
Don"t a.s.sume you can obscure your true nature just by adopting grandiose names like "Reversal of Karma" and "Overdraft of Karma"!
This was undeniably a credit card model—spend first, then pay back! Overdraft consumption, mortgaging one"s future!
But... I love it.
For someone like Song Shuhang, whose savings couldn"t even last until the end of the month, overdrawing karma"s power was indeed a necessity. Although it entailed borrowing from the future, it at least ensured his survival until month"s end!
"No more splurging?" White Dragon Sister inquired, her tone tinged with confusion.
"I won"t splurge any further. It was merely a momentary indulgence; I must exercise restraint," Song Shuhang declared, deftly transferring the remaining treasures to his Inner World.
In this moment, Song Shuhang was richer than he had ever been before!
This marked the zenith of his life!
Simultaneously, he clutched the Karma Book in his hand. With this treasure, he could explore yet another avenue!
...
...
"My treasures!" In the sky, King Kun, locked in combat with the Heavenly Dao Molt Ball, seethed with fury.
Even as the treasures expelled from its belly were hurled away by the Heavenly Dao Molt Ball, King Kun continued to intermittently monitor the treasures scattered on the ground during the battle. The whereabouts of the Kun"s wealth were inseparable from the Kun"s heart.
King Kun had been searching for the opportunity to reclaim the treasures it had disgorged. Every item contained within its belly represented its hard work and was steeped in memories.
Yet now, its treasures were enveloped by a shroud of black smoke and pilfered.
"Die, you thieving scoundrel!" King Kun whirled around and charged toward Song Shuhang"s location. The liquid metal ball followed in hot pursuit.
One Kun and one ball, like two ma.s.sive meteors, hurtled earthward in succession.
Simultaneously, both activated Spatial Imprisonment.
King Kun aimed to prevent the smoky cloud from escaping through spatial means.
The Heavenly Dao Molt Ball aimed to prevent King Kun from fleeing.
Faced with the impending collision of two peerless t.i.tans, Song Shuhang remained remarkably composed.
Since time immemorial, who had escaped death?
When one was unafraid even in the face of death, tranquility naturally prevailed within.
"There"s a spatial fluctuation." Song Shuhang covertly communicated with the Inner World. As expected, the Inner World was already in a state of panic.
"Pavilion Master Chu, Sister White Dragon, a.s.sist me in buying some time," he swiftly requested.
"It"s impossible. My single strand of hair cannot withstand the combined onslaught of King Kun and the Heavenly Dao Molt Ball," Pavilion Master Chu lamented.
Song Shuhang"s smoky form dispersed and revealed his true self. "No need for a head-on confrontation. Just take my body and evade for a while. I require time to prepare my ultimate move."
"If it"s only for a brief period, that"s manageable," Pavilion Master Chu replied, her bewildering fur whirling rapidly as she dragged Song Shuhang"s body and teleported to evade King Kun"s attack range.
White Dragon Sister on his neck initiated a magical technique. Dozens of supportive and speed-enhancing formations descended upon Pavilion Master Chu and Song Shuhang. Subsequently, her body melded into Song Shuhang"s, and a dragon bone emerged on his back.
White Dragon Sister"s existence mirrored that of the virtuous lamia, allowing her to partially merge with Song Shuhang"s body, akin to the virtuous lamia.
She controlled Song Shuhang"s body and cooperated seamlessly with Pavilion Master Chu.
The two immortal ladies worked in unison and enabled Song Shuhang"s body to gracefully evade the relentless attacks.
For the time being, King Kun and the liquid metal ball were powerless against Song Shuhang.
Song Shuhang permitted his body to be guided while in flight. In his left hand, he clutched the Karma Book"s remnant page, and in his right hand, he wielded the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber.
"Karma Blade!" He covertly executed this peerless saber technique.
Threads of karma materialized in Song Shuhang"s eyes, extending outward from his body.
Simultaneously, the remnant page of the Karma Book emitted a faint glow.
Overdraft karma!
Enjoy the fruits now, pay for the consequences later.
In other words, if Song Shuhang"s maneuver proceeded smoothly, guided by the power of the Karma Book, he could borrow the strength of senior cultivators in advance and subsequently make amends.
Success!
When the Karma Blade Technique coalesced, Song Shuhang knew that it had succeeded.
Once again, he established connections with several prominent figures.
The first karmic connection was to Senior White.
The second karmic connection was to Senior White Two.
The successful link between the two Senior Whites marked a propitious start!
It boded well for the future!
