Chapter 128: Entering Tou Pavilion
The lava monster screamed in pain, reaching its limit.
After a few moments, the lava monster let out a final roar before its body was completely destroyed by the attack. Its body exploded into small fragments, and its flames extinguished in the void. The terrifying power it possessed vanished along with its shattered body.
Seeing the destroyed body of the lava monster, the old man showed no expression of joy or sadness. It was as if he was performing a daily routine, with nothing to boast about.
He immediately moved toward where the lava monster had been to check if any materials had dropped.
The old man was about to move when he felt something and suddenly stopped.
"Hahahaha... Finally, that young man has arrived," he said softly.
His face now showed a happy smile, like someone who had received a long-awaited gift.
Without further thought, the old man in the white robe disappeared from the void. He didn\'t even bother to check the items dropped by the lava monster earlier.

Back in Heavenly News City, Lein and the others had finished eating. They were now on their way to the Tou Pavilion, where they had previously met Elder Wen.
"Brother, do you think Elder Wen still remembers us and will give us the mission contribution he promised?"
On their way to the Tou Pavilion, Nita was very concerned about the mission given by Elder Wen. The mission had been issued 25 days ago, and they had missed their scheduled meeting 20 days ago.
"Come on, don\'t worry about it. If the Wen Pavilion doesn\'t remember us, so be it," Lein replied, unconcerned.
Lein was not worried because he had faith in the system. The mission given by Elder Wen was still displayed on his mission system panel.
[Elder Wan\'s Hidden Mission]
- Name: Wan Lu
- Rank: S
- Description: Provide Elder Wan with two Blessing Potions
- Reward: 1,000,000 contribution points.
Unless the mission description disappeared from his panel, Lein would not feel concerned. He thought it was natural for Nita to ask, given that she didn\'t have the same mission description on her panel.
After walking for several minutes, Lein and the others finally arrived in front of a tall and majestic building. It felt no different from when they first arrived in the Guandu Realm; Lein still felt a strong familiarity with the Tou Pavilion.
Many people of various races entered the Tou Pavilion to take missions and purchase weapons there.
Lein, Laras, and Nita entered the Tou Pavilion without any hindrance and began looking around. The main hall of the Tou Pavilion was vast, with display cases filled with various weapons and cultivation materials in every section. It wasn\'t just catering to Cultivators; there were also materials needed by other power systems.
"That thing seems very powerful," Laras said to Nita. She was looking at a white orb inside one of the display cases in the pavilion.
"Let\'s take a look," Nita replied as she approached the display case selling the orb.
Upon reaching the display case, Laras and Nita asked the shopkeeper to take out the orb so they could take a closer look. They also examined the item\'s description.
(Orb of Divine Purity)
Level: 40
- Attribute: INT +450, Agi +320
- (Light of Redemption): Releases a blinding flash of holy energy in a 30-meter radius, dealing an additional 250% of total INT damage to all enemies and restoring 50% of the total damage as health to all allies within the area.
"Amazing, it even has a very good healing effect," Laras exclaimed in awe as she read the item\'s description.
This Orb not only significantly increases the user\'s intelligence and speed but also has extraordinary abilities that can change the course of a battle with a single strike.
"What do you think, sis? Are you interested in buying it?" Nita asked Laras.
Laras nodded, of course, she wanted this Orb with such strong attributes. Since the Orb\'s attribute is light, her natural talent would be activated without exception.
"Okay, let\'s buy it," Nita said excitedly. She then asked the shopkeeper for the price of the Orb.
"The price is 6,000 medium crystals, Miss," the shopkeeper replied casually.
Nita didn\'t mind the price of 100 crystals, which, when converted into regular crystals, would be 6,000,000 energy crystals. She gathered the energy crystals from within her storage ring and was about to hand them over to the shopkeeper. But before she could, Lein pulled out a platinum token from behind.
[Tou Pavilion Token - Platinum]
A token only held by a few lucky rulers and highly respected by Tou Pavilion. This token can be used wherever a Tou Pavilion stands.
- Owner: Lein
- Validity: Forever
- Benefits: Prioritized customer at Tou Pavilion and highest privileges.
"Use this," Lein said to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper initially acted casually, but the moment he saw the platinum token in Lein\'s hand, his expression changed instantly. His eyes widened, and he immediately bowed with deep respect.
"Ah, Sir Platinum Token Holder! Please forgive any inconvenience," he said in a more polite and humble tone. He then continued, "With this token, you receive a 30% discount. The price of this orb becomes 4,200 medium crystals."
Nita smiled in satisfaction and nodded at Lein before handing over the energy crystals to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper quickly processed the purchase and handed the white orb to Nita with great respect.
"Thank you very much for your visit. May this item bring you good fortune," the shopkeeper said with a friendly smile.
Nita carefully took the orb and then handed it to Laras.
"This is for you, Sister Laras," Nita said with an excited smile.
Laras accepted the orb calmly, nodding slightly. "Thank you, Nita."
They exchanged smiles, pleased with the transaction that had just been completed.
Lein ignored the girls\' actions and then turned his attention to another display case, browsing for more good items.
