Chapter 31 - 31: Trap



Robert was surprised after he heard the system\'s praise. If the system has such a good evaluation that means this \'Primogenial Body Art\' is certainly worth cultivation.

The three stages mentioned by the previous owner need a huge amount of spiritual energy to cultivate. 

Robert was not worried about spiritual energy as he has \'Hell Furnace\' with its help he can get energy easily.

His attention was now attracted by something else. The person who wrote this book said that he found an Auxiliary Technique with this book.

He was able to cultivate till the Cleansing Body stage because of that Auxiliary Technique. 

Roberts\' interest was piqued after reading this, He knows not everyone has an innate talent like him that can extract energy for cultivation. So how did the previous owner cultivated \'Primogenial Body Art\'.

According to the previous owner, he left that auxiliary technique in the middle of the book. 

After this, there was only knowledge about the methods to cultivate the \'Primogenial Body Art\'.

How to cultivate Blood Cumulation, Body cleansing, Heart Refinement. Robert browsed through them at once and stopped.

He will read this once he is free. Now he is trapped inside this place. It is not a good place to cultivate.

He opened the book and searched for the Auxiliary Technique mentioned by the previous owner. He found a jade slip in the middle of two pages.

He picked it up carefully, afraid that a slight force would break it apart. 

It\'s a translucent jade slip!

Is this the jade slip mentioned in the novels? One you put on your forehead and technique will appear in your mind? Robert thought to himself excitedly.

He placed the jade slip on his forehead and concentrated hard. 

1 minute passed… 2 minutes passed…

Robert put down the jade slip and looked at it suspiciously, Is this fake jade slip?

He did not feel a thing in his forehead forget about the Auxiliary technique.

"Host, This Jade slip does not have a similar function as you imagined. It\'s just a normal slip made from Jade, look carefully the technique is engraved on it." System said.

After listening to the system Robert looked at the jade slip carefully and sure enough, there were characters engraved on the jade slip.  

The credibility of novels in his great dropped directly by 100. 

Looks like he has to read this technique manually. But the problem is he can\'t read these characters! 

It\'s because the size of each character is smaller than an ant. The jade slip is around 15 centimetres big in such a small area around ten thousand characters are engraved.

How is he supposed to read it? He will become blind till he completes reading.

"System, Can you copy all the information in my mind?" Robert could only ask the system. As he did not want to read it by himself.

"It will cost some Energy Points." The System said.

"How much?"

"The cost is lower compared to the cost of Copying the content in the book." 

"Lower than before? Then it\'s fine… but how much is the cost in number--Ahh!" As he wanted to ask about the price, a huge amount of information surged in his brain. He felt pain in his head because of the information. The information is ten times bigger compared to the book.

Slowly Robert understood the content. Rather than techniques for cultivation, the jade slip contained recipes and cooking methods.

It described how to cook food with the help of heaven and earth materials, How to cook spiritual creatures of different cultivation levels, How to increase the spiritual essence in any food...

Like this, there were tons of methods and recipes. In the end, there was a note left behind by the previous owner.

By using this cooking method he was able to cultivate his body to a Body Cleansing level at a young age. But later he encountered some strong enemies and was injured severely and escaped in Dream Maple forest to hide.

But his injuries were too severe that\'s why he died. Before dying he wanted to leave his legacy.

\'If you are reading this that means you got the inheritance that I left and you are my student. I have left a present as a master. It\'s a Longevity Pill. If you use this pill you can successfully cultivate your body to a Body Cleansing level without any difficulty.  Not reaching Heart refinement level is the biggest regret in my life, Hope you cultivate till Heart refinement level and fulfil my dream\'

This was the last note written inside the jade slip. After he finished reading he became silent for a while.

From the start to finish the person never mentioned his name. So he does not know the name of his master. So he can only fulfil his request to reach the Heart Refinement level.

Too bad he does not know the name of his master otherwise he is willing to avenge him. He sighed helplessly thinking about this.

No use overthinking about this. He picked up the book and stored it carefully.

After that, he looked around to find the longevity pill mentioned by his master. He was excited thinking about the pill. After eating it he can directly reach Body Cleansing level.

He searched the whole room three times but he could not find the Longevity pill mentioned by his master.

He scratched his head in confusion, Did his master prank him before dying?

There is no pill inside this room, there is only a table and a mud ball…

Mudball? He looked at the mud ball on the table suspiciously. This won\'t be the Longevity pill mentioned by his master, right?

"Yes host, Congratulations you have guessed correctly." 

Congratulations my ass! Do I have to eat this mud ball?

"Hosts, don\'t underestimate this longevity pill, it\'s a high-grade pill, After eating any high-grade pill you can easily get thousands of energy points." The system said as it also knew the name from the jade slip.

"Okay okay, I understand I will eat it.." Robert heard the system and his eyes became resolute. He picked up the mud ball and was ready to eat it.

As he lifted the mudball, he smelled a peculiar odour from it. He felt a desire from deep within his soul after smelling this odour. 

Every cell of his body was telling him to eat this mudball.

His eyes became red as the hair all over his body stood up. He involuntary licked the mud ball and felt a shiver all over his body.

"Host, Put down the Mudball, There is something weird about this pill."  The system seemed to feel the changes in Roberts body and warned him seriously. Before it did not scan the pill as it felt no need for it.

But Robert seemed to be in the world of his own. He did not respond to the system and started to lick the mud ball.

"Host, Stop!" The system said anxiously as it saw Roberts berserk appearance. 

But it was of no vail as Robert did not seem to hear the warning. With every lick, he could his body rejuvenate. 

Robert heard systems warning and tried to stop but he was not able to control his body. It\'s like his instinct took control over his body. 

The system was silent after warning for few times. 

His eyes became redder and redder as he licked the mud ball and finally he swallowed the mud ball.

"Host, Don\'t swallow the Mudball it\'s not a Longevity pill but an Explosion Pill. This place is a trap!" System warned suddenly. Just now it was scanning the Mudball to find any abnormality.

And there is indeed an abnormality. Especially the mud that covered the pill, it\'s called Aphrodisiac Mud.

It has no special effects on humans but it is a deadly attraction toward spirit beasts. Once a Spirit beast get a sniff of this mud their beastly instinct will take over their body rendering them helpless.

And based on their instinct they would start consuming this mud like a drug addict. Until there is no Aphrodisiac mud left.

But the main problem is the explosion pill inside the mud ball. If the explosion pill came in contact with digestive acid or anything corrosive then it would explode.

But it\'s too late as Robert already ate the mud ball.

After the Aphrodisiac mud was gone Robert slowly regained control over his body and his appearance returned to normal.

"System, What happened? Just now…" Before he could finish his sentence, he felt that his stomach was burning like hot magma after that his stomach bulged out for a second and he experienced a huge pain coming from his stomach. Blood dripped from the corner of his mouth. He wanted to scream but when he opened his mouth blood plunged out like a stream.

Sweat and blood dripped from all over his body and turned into vapour due to the high temperature around him.

He started to lose consciousness because of pain but he bit his tongue and tried to remain conscious.

He opened his eyes with much difficulty and saw flames appearing on the position of his stomach. These flames are weird as it\'s colour changes between red and black. Sometimes it combines and forms flames with a blackish-red colour. And the strange thing is the flames do not burn a hair on his body.

His breathing became ragged as he found it difficult to breathe. As if there was no oxygen in the surrounding.

"System… What\'s happening?" He said with much difficulty as he felt he could not remain conscious for a long time.

"Host, this is not a legacy place left by a cultivator but a trap set for Spiritual Creatures, There is no Longevity pill here but an Explosion pill. Just now it came into contact with \'Hell Furnace\' and exploded."

"Currently the huge amount of destructive energy is released by pill. But this destructive energy is contained by \'Hell Furnace\'. But it won\'t last long as the intensity and destructiveness of the energy is too much for \'Hell Furnace\'. It cannot suppress it for long."

"Those flames that appeared on your stomach are called as \'Hell flames\'. They should be inside \'Hell Furnace\' but because of the Explosion pill, it started to spill out from your stomach. This indicates one thing that \'Hell Furnace\' is on verge of destruction. "  After saying this system was silent.

"Host, It is systems fault not to notice this trap earlier. The techniques and test outside we\'re real but the prize was fake." System apologized, It wanted to help Robert earlier but could not do so because of the limitation of its ability.

"I do not blame you for this but is there no other way no-now?" Robert gasped while saying this. He did not blame the system for this because it is a well-designed trap, Anyone would get trapped. Just this time his stomach bulged once more as he spouted a mouth full of blood.

"Host, System is also helpless now, If it was just \'Hell Furnace\' then the system could suppress it but with the explosion pill things are different..." The system said helplessly, It wanted to help but could not do so because of the limitation of a Plugin.

Robert smiled bitterly as he heard the system, Since coming to this world he experienced near-death situations many times but every time at a critical juncture system helped him but today even the system is helpless.

That\'s all! looks like this is the end. This was a clever trap, There was some test outside after passing the one would come inside and read a book which contained an awesome technique.

In the end, there is a jade slip that contained the last words of the previous owner, Which is the main trap to make the person- No spiritual creature pick up the mud ball.

As long as they took a sniff out from the mud they would involuntarily eat the whole thing and the result is death!

What a trap! Everything is seamless! This is the work of humans. He didn\'t think that spiritual creature could come up with an idea like this!

Didn\'t expect to meet the end because of a trap designed by a human! And before he had the intention to make friends with humans in this world….

"System, White Fang, Slither, Snowball and Celli... Goodbye... It was a good journey with you all… I am happy that you all accompanied me till here…looks like it\'s an end for me... " Robert muttered as he felt another explosion in his stomach and he was losing his vision. He knew that his end is near and he is helpless about this…
