Chapter 23 - How Does It Feel To Be Rich?

"Alright, now that you've comprehended Demonic Might, my promise to you has been fulfilled. The rest is up to you."

Sin Demon opened his eyes and stared at Mo Fan in the pool.

Upon hearing Sin Demon's words, Mo Fan climbed out of the pool before he could check on his newly acquired power.

There was a new Legendary Mission in his mission panel.

[Legendary Mission: [Request from Demonic Might Sin Demon] (Uncompleted)]

[After you've reached the upper limit of the realm, you must leave the First Realm with Sin Demon within 30 days.]

[Mission Reward: Enter the Demonized Pool to comprehend Demonic Might. There is a higher chance of forging a Demon Body or comprehending Demon Eyes.]

[Mission Failure Penalty: If you fail, you will receive the curse of the Sin Demon. All attributes will be permanently reduced by 30%.]

Seeing this mission, Mo Fan revealed a look of understanding.

No wonder he had obtained the Demon Body and Demon Eyes while comprehending Demonic Might.

However, what was the connection between the [Demonic Might] of this mission and the [Divine Might] of the "Descendant of the War God" mission?

Also, what was the meaning of the upper limit of the realm and the first realm?

Furthermore, this mission had a penalty for failure.

And the penalty was heavy!

"Okay, but I would like to ask, what is the upper limit of this realm? Also, what does this realm mean? Are there other realms?" Mo Fan asked his own question.

"We are in the First Realm. The upper limit of the First Realm is Level 50. When you reach this level, you will understand what realm means."

"Above the First Realm is the Second Realm. Once you've reached Level 50, you can bring me to the Second Realm."

After Sin Demon was done speaking, his body turned into a black fog that gradually dissipated into the air. However, his voice could still be heard. "Remember your promise. If you don't fulfill it by then, humph!"

Mo Fan saw Sin Demon leave and he shouted, "Hey, you haven't told me how to get to the underground barrier yet!"

At this moment, the air returned to normal and no reply came from Sin Demon.

F*ck!

If you leave just like that, how am I going to get out?

Mo Fan cursed under his breath and started to survey his surroundings.

There was a thin layer of black mist on top of the Demonized Pool.

The surroundings were empty without even a single tree. It was very desolate.

The sky was dark and it was impossible to see what was happening in the distance.

The atmosphere was suffocating.

Shaking his head, Mo Fan took some time to check the additional skills he obtained.

[Mortal Demonic Might (Small): Increases your upper limit in the realm by 5%, allows you to suppress creatures below your level of Demonic (Divine) Might. Within your field of vision, the opponent cannot move for 1 second, and all attributes are reduced by 5%.]

Seeing the effect of this Demonic Might, Mo Fan could not help but be speechless.

He was wondering why the debuff effect that Sin Demon had was so powerful.

So this was the reason.

There was a "Mortal" at the back and a "Small" at the front.

This meant that this Demonic Might could still be upgraded!

The effect of Sin Demon's Demonic Might was several times stronger than his.

It was probably a high-level version.

[Mortal Demon Body: After being forged by demonic energy, the body has been greatly strengthened. Constitution +10%, Damage Reduction +5%]

[Mortal Demon Eyes: The eyes have been strengthened by demonic energy and have the ability to see through illusions. It can be used on creatures of lower levels. It can also check the information of lifeforms (Ineffective against certain special creatures).]

The effects of the Demon Body and Demon Eyes were not beyond Mo Fan's expectations.

One increased constitution while the other was a detection ability.

The effects of body strengthening with the Mortal Demon Body were calculated in percentages.

In short, the effects of the Mortal Demon Body would become more obvious as time went on.

Mortal Demon Eyes was very useful as it could clearly detect information about monsters and players.

Moreover, the Demon Body and Demon Eyes also had the word "Mortal" attached to them, which meant that these two could also be upgraded like Demonic Might.

Mo Fan turned to look at the Demonized Pool and could not help but be moved.

If he were to enter this Demonized Pool again, would he continue to get stronger?

Thinking about this, he directly jumped into the Demonized Pool.

Bang!

[System Notification: The Demonized Pool is protected by the Demonized Overlord Sin Demon. Access is forbidden!]

"Oh, what the heck!"

After Mo Fan jumped into the Demonized Pool, it was as if there was a layer of transparent barrier above the pool water. It directly pushed him backward.

It was as if a person in a swimsuit wanted to enter the water but the water was actually a sheet of transparent crystal-clear ice.

Intense pain surged throughout his body.

Mo Fan gritted his teeth and got up.

He pointed his middle finger in the direction where Sin Demon had left.

Damn, it hurt a lot!

This was the bad thing about the Luxury Gaming Capsule. 100% pain threshold was not a joke.

He had not suffered any severe injuries yet since buying the Luxury Gaming Capsule, so he still had no idea just how much pain was 100%.

But now, he could feel it.

Mo Fan activated his Mortal Demon Eyes and looked at the Demonized Pool.

[Low-level Demonized Pool: ???]

Apart from a few question marks, there was a thin and transparent protective layer on top of the Demonized Pool. The black aura in the pool came from behind the protective layer.

Was this layer a super-thin protective barrier?

It should be the defensive measure set up by Sin Demon.

He silently cursed Sin Demon before leaving.

"Sin Demon, this fraud!"

"What a scam!"

"Why didn't he tell me where the underground barrier was before leaving?"

Mo Fan complained as he walked. His heart became full of resentment.

After leaving the Demonized Pool and walking forward for a few minutes, he finally saw some withered trees and a few Demonized Vengeful Spirits.

Although these vengeful spirits did not possess any intelligence, they did not dare to approach the Demonized Pool.

Furthermore, every Demonized Vengeful Spirit that appeared in Mo Fan's vision froze for a second before they regained their mobility.

Then, they moved away from Mo Fan in fear.

"It seems like my Demonic Might is effective!"

Mo Fan nodded and used his Demon Eyes on a vengeful spirit.

[Demonized Vengeful Spirit (Level 15)]

[Vengeful Spirit corrupted by demonic energy. Its soul has been corroded by the demonic energy, causing it to be forever trapped in the Demonized Land.]

[Health: 4000]

[Attack: 612-693]

[Defense: 127]

The details of the Demonized Vengeful Spirit were displayed before his eyes.

"Not bad, not bad!"

"This is quite useful!"

Mo Fan smiled.

But before he could rejoice, his Demon Eyes discovered something that made him even happier. Behind the Demonized Vengeful Spirit, his Demon Eyes saw a transparent barrier.

[Underground Barrier: A barrier to isolate the underground world. After passing through it, you can reach the surface world. Demonized creatures cannot pass through the underground barrier.]

The underground barrier that Mo Fan had been searching for all day was actually here.

If he did not use his Demon Eyes, he would not be able to see it.

It was no wonder why Sin Demon left him behind without saying anything.

Mo Fan immediately walked over, wanting to pass through the barrier.

[System Notification: Demonized creatures cannot pass!]

Mo Fan was blocked.

He looked at himself and immediately changed Kuang Dao's skin into the human skin.

He walked over once more.

The environment in front of him changed and Mo Fan appeared on the mountain range at the boundary of the beginner village.

He turned around and looked behind him, but he could no longer see the underground barrier.

He was finally out!

He stayed in the Demonized Land for almost five hours.

The environment there was simply too suffocating.

Mo Fan could not help but stretch his body as he savored the freedom he craved so dearly.

"Eh, who's that?"

"Bunao Biaoyin?"

"Why is he here?"

The three players who were farming Welfare Bosses happened to witness Mo Fan's sudden appearance.

But before they could react, Mo Fan had already rushed over to them.

-27,345

-55,213 (Critical Hit)

-23,419

Three absurd numbers floated above the three players' heads and they fell lifeless onto the ground.

"Sorry, I have to take your lives!" Mo Fan looked at the three corpses on the ground and smiled.

Even without the enhancement of Kuang Dao's skin, his attack was still over twenty thousand.

For a Level 9 player, he was akin to a Super Boss.

[Player I'm Coming (Level 9) has been killed. Obtained 1 Spiritual Energy Point, 1 Monster Reputation Point.]

[Player Sister-in-law Please Let Go (Level 9) has been killed…]

[Player Gentleman Juicer (Level 9) has been killed…]

Mo Fan was 10 levels above these players.

Killing one would only give him a single Spiritual Energy and Reputation Point.

They did not even give him a single fragment.

"Looks like the beginner village is no longer suitable for my development."

"There's anyone here that can fill the gaps between my teeth!"

"Sigh…"

Mo Fan looked at the beginner village in the distance and shook his head.

His email icon flashed.

Another set of Vengeful Spirit Set was sold.

After entering the Demonized Land, he had killed more than 30,000 Demonized Vengeful Spirits and obtained 1563 sets of Vengeful Spirit Equipment.

He even looted 2,070,000 silver coins and 287 gold coins.

Through the auction in the trading section of the official website, 25 Vengeful Spirit Sets had been sold so far.

The total profit he acquired was 4.57 million dollars.

He had become rich!

Within a day or so, he became a wealthy man.

Looking at the balance in his bank account, Mo Fan felt his blood pressure rise.

The email he received just now was from the 25th set, which was only sold for $30,000.

The price got lower and lower as he sold more sets.

As he continuously sold sets after sets, the players in the official website's forum gave him a new nickname: Equipment Set Wholesaler!

It was truly a spectacle!

Mo Fan was rendered speechless.

Looking at the thousand sets of equipment left in his bag, Mo Fan made a decision.

No matter what, the supply of this equipment could not meet the demand.

Now that everyone's levels had increased, there were many Level 10 players.

There was no need to worry about finding buyers.

As a result, Mo Fan directly threw the remaining sets he had into the auction.

The auction time was not set for 10 minutes, but 24 hours.

It took Mo Fan more than ten minutes to finish this arrangement.

In the official website's trading section, because of these sets, the website's traffic skyrocketed.

The official forum was also thrown into an uproar.

"Big news, big news! Equipment Set Wholesaler is doing business again!"

"Impressive, Brother Set! He instantly listed more than 1500 Vengeful Spirit Sets!"

"The Secret Behind Equipment Set Wholesaler: Never-Ending Sets!"

Some were overjoyed with the surge in supply, but some of the players' were displeased…

Some even privately messaged Mo Fan to scold him.

"F*ck, he is definitely a cheater!"

"How can a single person obtain so much equipment? They are the same equipment as well?"

"Report, report! We must report this hacker!"

"Are you guys stupid? How can there be a hacker in this game?"

"That's right! I heard that the overseer of this game is an AI. There are no bugs whatsoever, so there can't be any external modifications through hacking either."

"It is his ability to get so many pieces of equipment. If you have the guts, go ahead and fight him for them!"

"That's right! You guys are all eating sour grapes! Ask yourselves this question, do you really think that it's possible to cheat in this game?"
