The boss might speak crudely, but his reasoning is solid. Wang Xiaoqiang reluctantly accepted it and asked, "So this Spirit Cocoon Treasure Robe, does it have
"This Spirit Cocoon Treasure Robe, once worn, will be warm in winter and cool in sumr, and what's more, this Spirit Cocoon has the Substitute Death rit..."
"Substitute Death rit, what's that an?"
"The principle is very simple. Having so many Spirit Cocoons on you, when your life is at risk, the first thing to be attacked is obviously them, so in critical monts, they can save your life..."
"So you're saying, it's just about increasing defensive power, why make it sound so complicated..." This ti, it was Wang Xiaoqiang's turn to roll his eyes.
"No, you still haven't grasped its true wonder," Boss Feng said, smacking Wang Xiaoqiang on the forehead. "You forgot, these Spirit Cocoons can die and co back to life, and the revival is in an instant, so it could also be said, they are immortal. They can die for you once, then again a second and third ti. Can other armors do that?"
"Hm, you do have a point, if they are immortal, then this Treasure Robe is undying..." Wang Xiaoqiang's eyes locked onto the Spirit Cocoon Treasure Robe, shining with interest. "But how much can it increase my defensive power...?"
Boss Feng glanced at Wang Xiaoqiang, "You're at the Divinity Transformation Realm, right?"
"Yeah!" Wang Xiaoqiang played dumb.
"Wearing this Spirit Cocoon Treasure Robe, if you fight against an expert of the Void Transformation Realm, I can't guarantee you'll win, but you definitely won't die."
"Really?"
"You don't believe it, do you!" Boss Feng furrowed his eyebrows, ford a sword technique with his hand, and instantly conjured a Sword Light. With a swing, the Sword Light struck the Spirit Cocoon Treasure Robe.
Imdiately, three of the Spirit Cocoons were deflated by the hit, presumably dead, but in the blink of an eye, they inflated again, revived!
Staring at the four Spirit Cocoons that were flattened and then instantly resurrected full of life, Wang Xiaoqiang was stunned.
"Let show you again, so you don't think I'm tricking you." Boss Feng said, repeating the process. Spiritual Energy ford into Sword Light and struck the four Spirit Cocoons again. Instantly, the Spirit Cocoons were flattened, but before even a blink, they puffed back up, fully resurrected once more.
Wang Xiaoqiang activated his Divine Sense, scanned Boss Feng's Cultivation Base, and realizing that Boss Feng was actually a Cultivator in the Void Transformation Realm, he couldn't help but be sincerely convinced and grabbed the Spirit Cocoon Treasure Robe, "It truly is not bad. Then, what if I were at the First Transformation of the Immortal, could I compete against soone at the Second Transformation if I wore this robe?"
"Forget the Second Transformation, even a Fifth Transformation Immortal wouldn't be able to kill you. I still can't promise you a victory, but I can ensure your life..." Boss Feng spoke earnestly.
"With such a treasure, why would you sell it to ?" Wang Xiaoqiang asked curiously.
"I'll be honest with you, this Spirit Cocoon Treasure Robe is a family heirloom, I had intended to leave it for my son, but unfortunately..." Boss Feng shook his head. "Unfortunately, it's fated that I'll have no sons. I have a whole carriage of won, but not one has carried my seed... I am fated to have no heirs..."
"Then you could keep it for yourself to wear, or hold onto it and sell it for an even higher price..."
"This life of mine, it's all been ruined by won. I only reached the Void Transformation at sixty, and becoming an Immortal is hopeless. My life is nearing its end, what use have I for this Treasure Robe but to sell it, get myself a few more concubines, and live in pleasure until I die..." Boss Feng's face revealed a look of resignation.
"But this... 15 Demon Crystals, don't you find it too few?"
```
"Hehe, it seems you're a straight shooter, little brother, so I won't beat around the bush. To tell you the truth, the least valuable thing in the Immortal Realm is won. Although 15 Demon Crystals isn't much, it's enough to buy five concubines for sure, and of course, I'm talking about common folk..." Boss Feng said, his tone suddenly changing, "And in the Five Spirit Sect Outer Sect, I'm afraid you're the only disciple who could display so many Demon Crystals at once..."
"You could take it sowhere else to sell..."
"Little brother, judging by your accent, you must be a new disciple from Earth," Boss Feng wondered, "Don't you know how dangerous the Immortal Realm is? It's a law of the jungle here, with no laws whatsoever. If I were to take this Spirit Cocoon Treasure Robe out to sell, I'd likely lose more than just money—I could lose my life... Understand?"
"I get it now!" Wang Xiaoqiang finally completely understood.
Furthermore, he realized he had struck it lucky!
Obtaining such a treasure for just 15 Demon Crystals, it was truly a stroke of fortune!
"Then, I'll buy this Spirit Cocoon Treasure Robe!" Wang Xiaoqiang declared with fervor.
"Shh..." Boss Feng signaled Wang Xiaoqiang to keep his voice down, then glanced at the shop's door with rolled eyes, "Don't be so loud. Wearing such a treasure, if people find out, your life won't be safe... Don't you understand the danger of having a valuable thing?"
However, Wang Xiaoqiang just laughed, "Afraid of what? If one cos, I'll kill one!"
Seeing that Wang Xiaoqiang truly wasn't afraid, and recalling how he could instantly produce so many Demon Crystals, Boss Feng looked at Wang Xiaoqiang with the sa eyes one would a strange beast, "Could it be, little brother, that you possess a magic treasure or so extraordinary strange art?"
"I can't tell you that, but in ti, you'll see a man nad Wang Xiaoqiang rising rapidly within the Five Spirit Sect..." Wang Xiaoqiang said, and with a burst of spiritual power, the won's garnt he was wearing shattered with a bang, falling to pieces on the ground. All that was left on him was a small pair of shorts.
Boss Feng's gaze lingered on Wang Xiaoqiang's bare back for a mont as he noticed Wang Xiaoqiang's patterned beast. There were no tattoos in the Immortal Realm, and though Boss Feng had never heard of the Patterned Beast, he didn't pay it too much attention.
Then he picked up the Spirit Cocoon Treasure Robe, tossed it upwards, and imdiately, the robe flew up and draped down over him. Despite the sweltering sumr weather in the Immortal Realm, the robe felt cool against his skin and fitted him perfectly, neither too long nor too short, nor too big nor too small.
"Hey, it fits perfectly. This treasure robe truly belongs to you," Boss Feng, having seen all walks of life, imdiately recognized that Wang Xiaoqiang was no ordinary disciple and was bound for greatness. He started to curry favor eagerly.
"But going out like this won't do. I need another robe over this one," Wang Xiaoqiang said, as the Spirit Cocoon Treasure Robe left so skin exposed.
"No worries, I'll throw in another outer robe for you," Boss Feng said, and taking a gray robe off a shelf, he handed it to Wang Xiaoqiang.
Wang Xiaoqiang put it on, concealing the Spirit Cocoon Treasure Robe completely underneath it. He then said to Boss Feng, "Keep the 15 Demon Crystals safe. If I get more, I'll co to exchange them with you..."
"Ah! Thank you, Young Hero Wang," Boss Feng imdiately addressed Wang Xiaoqiang with the respectful title of a young hero, "I'll hold on to so good items for you in the future..."
Wang Xiaoqiang laughed heartily, left the shop, and headed straight to his stone house, only to notice that the lock was not in place.
A chill ran down Wang Xiaoqiang's spine. He released his divine sense to scan the area and detected soone inside with a Nascent Soul Late Phase cultivation base. He breathed a sigh of relief, suspecting he knew who it was.
When he pushed open the door, as expected, there was a woman sitting on the bed, dressed in a white embroidered robe with wide sleeves and loosely tied with a red sash that accentuated her slender waist...
