I really am a fortune teller

But Wei Chen now has another idea: to turn all the evil artifacts here into merit.

Following the system's prompts, Wei Chen also studied the "Star Tempering Technique" that he had won in the previous lottery.

Wei Chen's current bloodline power is as high as 4.5.

Even a dedicated five-star body cultivator only possesses a bloodline power of four. The representative of body cultivators is the Shaolin monk.

Wei Chen had been cultivating underground and had almost forgotten about the Eight-Star Ghost King. According to his previous plan, he would only consider going up after Wei Chen had finished cultivating underground.

After Wei Chen had been cultivating for a while, he suddenly released the Ghost King's daughter, Gou Dan.

Gou Dan was startled. When he saw Wei Chen, he thought he had gone to the wrong door.

"who are you?"

Wei Chen sneered, and lightning power enveloped Gou Dan's body. Gou Dan was startled and trembled.

The feeling of being slapped by lightning made Gou Dan feel like he was dying of pleasure.

Wei Chen used lightning to weave a large net, enveloping Gou Dan within it.

This way, Dog Egg's scent won't be leaked out.

Wei Chen slapped Gou Dan across the face and said to him, "What are you still standing there for? Do you need me to serve you? From now on, while I cultivate, you'll stay by my side and take care of me. If anything happens to me, you'll be in big trouble, understand?"

Wei Chen felt he was exhausted from cultivating there, and having someone wipe his sweat and get him something to eat would be nice. Wei Chen looked at Gou Dan: "If there's anything edible nearby, bring it to me. It has to be something a living person could eat. If you can cook, that would be even better. If you can't cook..."

Wei Chen gave Gou Dan a malicious look.

Dog Egg trembled all over and nodded frantically.

Wei Chen then waved his hand and said, "Go quickly."

Gou Dan cursed as he walked away from Wei Chen.

Not long after, Gou Dan left. After all, Gou Dan was a ghost, so leaving the cave was very easy for him, but he didn't dare let his father discover him.

Because Gou Dan discovered that the collar around his neck was connected to that damned human. No matter where Gou Dan went, as long as that damned human was still alive, Gou Dan would lose his life and his soul would be scattered.

About an hour later, Gou Dan brought back a lot of pots, pans, and even rice from outside.

Wei Chen watched silently and realized that Gou Dan's things seemed to have been stolen from the temporary place set up by humans.

Although ghosts are said to originate from hell and are a very special kind of physical being, they can also make themselves without a physical form, like a wisp of ethereal air.

Can you detect the existence of air?

No.

In temporary settlements built by humans, very few people are born with the ability to see ghosts. Most people who want to see ghosts, especially those without a physical form, have to rely on the ability to see ghosts or some special methods of speech.

Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to sense the presence of ghosts.

Only then was Gou Dan able to successfully steal cooking utensils, rice, and some vegetables from those people.

Dog Egg glared at Wei Chen resentfully. How dare he order me around?

Before long, Gou Dan made a bowl of fragrant fried rice with eggs.

Wei Chen has not yet reached the level of abstaining from grains.

Even though Wei Chen was already capable of abstaining from grains, he was unwilling to do so because that would prevent him from enjoying delicious food.

Wei Chen took the fried rice that Gou Dan handed him, but after just one bite, he spat it all out.

How many kilograms of salt did this girl put in?

The lightning in Wei Chen's hand flickered slightly, and the lightning bolt, like a lightning snake, jumped around in Wei Chen's hand, scaring Gou Dan, who was standing next to him, to the point of being terrified.

Because Gou Dan could feel the soul chain that had been locking his neck striking his soul hard.

Dog Egg almost knelt on the ground: "Master, what are you trying to do?"

Wei Chen snorted coldly and said, "What use are you if you can't even cook?"

Dog Egg was startled: "I am the daughter of the Eight-Star Ghost King."

"But you're just a two-star trash."

"I am the daughter of the Eight-Star Ghost King, and I can learn to cook, sew, embroider, make clothes, clean, mop the floor, I can do it all."

Dog Egg quickly said, trying his best to develop his survival skills.

The lightning in Wei Chen's hand calmed down considerably, and he looked at Gou Dan with a smile, saying, "You can cook?"

"I will." Gou Dan nodded vigorously.

Wei Chen then smiled and said, "Then make me a new bowl of fried rice. If you can't do it well..."

Wei Chen didn't finish his sentence, but his tone already carried a threatening undertone.

Gou Dan was startled and nodded frantically at Wei Chen: "Don't worry, Master, I will definitely make your favorite fried rice."

Wei Chen snorted coldly and continued cultivating.

Dog Egg shed two wide tears in her heart. This tragic ghost life. Before, she was at least the youngest daughter of an eight-star ghost king, someone who was cherished and loved to the core.

Now she's become Wei Chen's kitchen maid, responsible for cooking, washing clothes, and making clothes for him. If she doesn't do a good job, her soul will be scattered.

The dog angrily fried the rice, mistaking it for Wei Chen. He stirred the rice with the spatula, and the loose, golden grains of rice, like rice stalks, emitted an enticing aroma.

Wei Chen twitched his nose. Not bad, not bad. It seems the training has been very effective.

Days passed by like this. After Wei Chen absorbed all the evil artifacts underground and transformed them into merit, he even luxuriously enhanced his bloodline and spiritual power. At this time, Wei Chen's bloodline reached 4.5 and his spiritual power reached 6.7.

According to the system, Wei Chen's current attributes are something that ordinary people only have at the eight-star level.

Wei Chen also successfully reached the five-star peak.

Wei Chen now understands that if his bloodline or spiritual power reaches the standard of an ordinary person, then Wei Chen will directly reach the peak after consuming the upgrade pill.

For example, Wei Chen is currently at the peak of five stars. If Wei Chen takes an upgrade pill, he will directly reach the peak of six stars, and there will be no side effects in between.

However, Wei Chen also inquired about the lightning punishment. The system explained that if Wei Chen were to consume the upgrade pill now, he would suffer an unprecedented lightning punishment. This was because Wei Chen was an overpowered character in this world, and the Heavenly Dao would not allow such a bug to exist. Therefore, the lightning punishment Wei Chen would face would be more severe than that of anyone else.

Wei Chen was speechless. How could he be blamed for this?

Therefore, even if Wei Chen's bloodline power and spiritual power could allow him to quickly reach the eighth star, Wei Chen would not use an upgrade pill.

Starting from six stars, each star level increase will trigger a lightning strike. This is the system's warning. Therefore, Wei Chen needs to be careful, or he might lose his life.
