Chapter 1093: Skill grinding!
Translator: G.o.dBrandy Editor: Kurisu
Song Shuhang curiously asked, “A ‘life-bound magical treasure’ forging method? But what kind of magical treasure is that?”
The hamster blinked cutely as it replied, “How am I supposed to know?”
Song Shuhang: “…”
The hamster said, “Squeak~ I just heard it from my master a few days ago. The ‘life-bound magical treasure’ of the Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Sect is very interesting. It’s a combined magical treasure. As for what magic treasure my master was talking about, how should I know? Anyway, you are practicing the ❮Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Technique❯, so if you don’t have a suitable life-bound magical treasure, then try asking about the life-bound magical treasure forging method of the Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Sect. Who knows, perhaps it will suitable for you? It can’t be bad if it piqued my master’s interest.”
“Okay… Thank you,” Song Shuhang said.
“You’re welcome. The next time, I’ll beat you up until you have a pig-like face,” the hamster said coldly. “I have already witnessed your moves. I will rush to the Fifth Stage Realm when I get back., and after that, I will definitely be able to defeat you with my sword; you shall only be able to tremble in fear!”
Song Shuhang: “…”
What exactly gives you so much confidence? Would you mind sparing me a bit of it?
After sighing, Song Shuhang picked up the hamster, and asked, “Where is the van?”
The hamster said, “It’s parked right outside the door. You’ll be able to see it when you exit.”
Song Shuhang held the hamster using one hand, stepped out, and saw a large red van parked not too far away from the door. The driver sat inside while looking at his phone.
The hamster said, “That’s the car. I’ve made an appointment with the driver. He’s waiting for me to pick up the goods, so let’s go over to the car.”
Song Shuhang asked, “You did it like this? Did you do business with him while you were in that form?”
The hamster replied, “Do you seriously think that the average person would do business with a hamster? Of course I used an illusory technique.”
The delivery of the goods went smoothly.
From the perspective of that driver, the hamster was a tall middle-aged man.
After seeing Song Shuhang and the hamster coming over, the driver opened the van’s cargo compartment and took out a huge wooden box. The fox demon was packed inside it.
After handing over the goods, the hamster took out several banknotes from its spatial magical treasure and handed them to the driver.
Song Shuhang laughed, and said, “You’re actually even paying.”
“I’m not an ordinary demon of the Netherworld.” The hamster was proud of itself, and didn’t feel that its actions brought shame to the race of demons of the Netherworld… maybe it was even helping them increase their rep?
The hamster said, “The fox demon is in the box. The seal is my master’s doing. After 28 hours, the seal will automatically undo itself.”
Song Shuhang asked, “Can it not be undone right away?”
“I don’t have such ability. The only way you’d be able to do so would be if you meet up with my master and then have him open the box himself,” the hamster said.
“Okay.” Song Shuhang thought about it, and moved the box with the fox demon to the desert oasis in his ‘Inner World’.
28 hours… This meant that it would take more than a day before the seal would undo itself and let the fox demon out.
“My a.s.signment has been completed. We shall meet another time,” the demonic hamster said. It then used the magical treasure given to it by Senior White Two to open a s.p.a.ce channel, which it then entered.
Before its body disappeared, the demonic hamster did not forget to add, “Tremble in fear, Song Shuhang. The next time we meet, it will be the day you kneel begging for mercy!”
Song Shuhang: “…”
Self-confidence was a good thing, but blind self-confidence was a disease that required treatment.

After solving the matter with the hamster, Song Shuhang went back inside for breakfast.
Since Loli s.h.i.+ was still sleepy, the breakfast was a simple toast, eggs, and soy milk.
Young Master Phoenix Slayer asked, “What about the hamster? Did it leave?”
Song Shuhang replied, “Mm-hm. It isn’t an ordinary demon of the Netherworld, it just came here to deliver something. The challenge it issued was on a whim.”
“That’s a pity,” Young Master Phoenix Slayer said.
Song Shuhang: “…”
Senior Phoenix Slayer, do you really plan on eating it?
Su Clan’s Sixteen asked, “Do you have cla.s.ses in the morning?”
Song Shuhang said, “Yeah, but only two, during the third and the fourth period. s.h.i.+, would you like to sleep for a while before going to cla.s.s?”
s.h.i.+ nodded, rubbing her eyes as she answered, “Okay.”
Song Shuhang asked, “Sixteen, what about you? Do you have cla.s.ses in the morning?”
Su Clan’s Sixteen shook her head. “Today’s a rest day for me. Just the right time for me to consolidate my realm.”
After the crocodile leg feast she had with Song Shuhang yesterday, she could now use the medicinal power from the meal to harden the first immortal bone of Fourth Stage Realm. As such, she wanted to strike the iron while it was hot, striving to change the first immortal bone’s color to dark gold as soon as possible, drawing its power into her illusory core.
Song Shuhang nodded while looking inwardly at his dantian. His fat whale illusory core still didn’t look full yet, and he had no idea as to when it would finish mutating.
True Monarch White Crane finished its toast and asked, “Shuhang, is Senior White still transcending his tribulation?”
“Yes, he’s still grinding the heavenly tribulation.” Song Shuhang could feel his left hand feeling numb every once in a while.
“Then I’ll prepare something delicious for Senior White to supplement his energy,” True Monarch White Crane said. “If I come back late, please request for a leave for me.”
After speaking, True Monarch White Crane didn’t wait for Song Shuhang’s reply, and simply stood up and flew out of the window.
Without Senior White around, True Monarch White Crane returned to being lazy. As such, it just made up an excuse and went out to look for food for Senior White so that it could quietly take its leave.
Young Master Phoenix Slayer said, “Then, Shuhang, let’s begin. After the transaction is completed, I’ll also take my leave.”
“Senior Phoenix Slayer, do you not want to stay over for a while longer?” Song Shuhang laughed.
Young Master Phoenix Slayer said, “Time is life. After this, I want to close up for a period of time. Recently, I’ve been feeling that I can soon ascend by a small realm.”
…He was preparing to close up for a bit longer this time lest Song Shuhang looked for him to borrow his CPU again.
“I wish Senior Phoenix Slayer an early success and ascension to the Sixth Stage,” Song Shuhang said sincerely.
Senior Phoenix Slayer was currently at the Fifth Stage, while Song Shuhang had entered the Fourth Stage. If Young Master Phoenix Slayer didn’t ascend to the Sixth Stage soon, the effects when Song Shuhang was borrowing his CPU to practice skills would be greatly reduced.
Young Master Phoenix Slayer understood the meaning behind Song Shuhang’s words and grimaced. “Scram!”
❄️❄️❄️
This time, Song Shuhang borrowed Young Master Phoenix Slayer’s CPU to enhance the ❮Strong Whale Saber❯— oops, the ❮Strong Gale Saber❯, as well as the ❮Fundamentals of Sealing Techniques❯, flying saber riding technique, saber controlling technique, and experienced the capabilities of these skills.
The experience he could get from riding a flying saber and the saber controlling technique were of the highest importance.
Song Shuhang hoped to take advantage of Young Master Phoenix Slayer’s CPU this time and acc.u.mulate more experience with regard to riding a flying saber and the saber controlling technique. Although Young Master Phoenix Slayer practiced a flying sword technique and the sword controlling technique, the fundamental principles were the same.
Not bothering with beheading an enemy from thousands of miles away, he should at least be able to first achieve the ability to behead an enemy from 1000 meters away.

In the meantime, in the Netherworld Realm.
The ball of liquid metal packed Skylark’s body into a crystal coffin. “Now, the final step…”
