Hard Enough - Chapter 6: Sleeping thoughts

[Congratulations, you have earned +9 coins. You have repaid 999,999,999 / 1,000,000,000 Coins. You need 1 more coin to repay your debt.]“You’ve got to be kidding me.”______After living a hundred lives, Lucian finally managed to repay his debt to the system. World after world, he fought, bled, and struggled—all for the freedom he had foolishly given up the day he begged the system to save his life.At last, he had done it. 999,999,990 coins. Just one more mission, one last world, and he would finally be free...Or so he thought.But this was no joke. The system had screwed him over one final time.Still, there was hope. With only a single coin left to repay, the system could no longer play its tricks. Freedom was just within his grasp—if he could survive this last world.All Lucian had to do was reach the end. Simple, right?Except this time, the world itself seemed determined to destroy him.

Is it hard to become a mage? Are those who master magic truly one in ten thousand?Just grind it out!!!Minor Fireball, Fireball, Greater Fireball, Explosive Fireball, Chain Fireball, Meteor Fireball… Great Sun Nuclear Blast!Novice Apprentice, Mage Apprentice, Novice Mage, Mage, Archmage, Legendary Mage, Saint Mage… God of Magic!……“Wait, am I already invincible?”

This is a bizarre and mysterious world filled with various sinister cultivation methods. Once a person begins to cultivate, they will either undergo mild changes in appearance and temperament, descend into madness, or become a great elixir for evil beings to consume...Duan Yun, having transmigrated into this world, unexpectedly comes across a supreme elixir cultivation manual, the 'True Explanation of the Jade Sword.'To his surprise, he is a one-in-a-million cultivation genius who, unwittingly, transforms the manual into something extraordinary. Guided by the Jade Sword, he is able to pierce through everything.Later, as his mastery over various methods grows, Duan Yun, carrying the philosophy of 'the enlightened benefit the world,' never keeps secrets and spreads martial arts across the land.Who would have thought...“Duan the Demon misled me! He said this technique enhances yin and yang, but now I can only squat to pee, boo hoo...”“It was the Demon who taught me this 'Seven Parts Returning Qi'. Instead of blessing me, it brought disaster—I either get killed or step in dung. The fortune-teller said I've lost seventy percent of my luck.”“Don't trust a word of what Demon Duan says! The fairy of the Myriad Wonders Palace was supposed to ascend the whole palace to the heavens, but in one night, she was possessed and turned into a demoness, all due to that old demon Duan's handiwork!”...Duan Yun finds this incomprehensible. All he did was practice martial arts, spread techniques, and occasionally emulate the laws of nature, so how did he become notorious as a demon?This is slander!The same techniques cause no issues for me, so the problem lies with you all, not me!
