One Wish to Own the World



"Congratulations on clearing the Labyrinth of Blood."

The good old voice resounded in the room. After Daisy declared she was leaving, there was an awkward silence in the room since she couldn't actually leave until the rewards were out.

"Before the presentation of the rewards, would you like to lock the last room for an hour in exchange for 1,000 BP?"

"Yes."

Ken agreed instantly. If not, they'd have to fight everyone outside as soon as the door opened. It was a hassle he preferred to avoid if he could help it.

"Last room has been locked for one hour. You have gained 1,000 BP for clearing the Labyrinth of Blood. You may now choose your rewards."

After the voice finished speaking, 10 pedestals rose across the platform from the floor in a long row. Alaric, whose foot was where one of the pedestals came from, had to step back.

'Oh, 10 prizes this time. Clearing the final floor is much more rewarding than the former ones. I wonder how much the prizes will cost.'

Ken thought to himself as he waited patiently for the set-up to be completed. The group didn't approach the prizes; they first waited for Ken's signal. They agreed that the Team Leader enjoys priority, mainly under Alaric's persistence.

Ken checked the contents on the pedestals and stated them out loud.

"Manuals for forming a Nascent Soul, each cost 5,000 BP. Five sixth-grade Bloodlust Boost Pills, each cost 1,000 BP. Five sixth-rank Terror Talismans, each cost 1,500 BP."

He noticed that the talismans and the pills were of a higher quality than those in the previous floors, but still didn't find them necessary. 

He purchased four manuals for himself. One was meant for Swordsmanship, one for Bloodlust, one for Alchemy, and the last one for Runology. He sucked two of them straight into his storage ring and let the other two float in the air.

He was surprised to see a manual for Bloodlust Qi users, but it means he wasn't the only one to cultivate it.

"I purchased the manuals that are meant for me, but since none of you use the sword or practice Alchemy, they'd be useless for you."

"I don't think any of us needs those manuals; we all hail from top sects where the best methods can be found."

Alaric said his opinion but forgot that Tiara might not be in the same position as them. Ken could see through her personality; she'd rather find an opportunity to join one of the top 5 sects than stay in the sect that invested in her wholeheartedly. 

She was just that selfish. She might want to buy the manuals until she finds a way to join another sect.

"Next prizes. Qi Devour, a Heaven-grade technique, for 80,000 BP, a single copy. Blood Sacrifice Formation for 80,000 BP, a single copy. 10 Escape Tokens, teleportation tokens that work only inside the secret realm, for 2,000 BP each."

He knew that nobody would openly purchase the heaven-grade technique since it was evil, so he left it aside and planned to look at it later. The Blood Formation was a scroll that explained how to arrange it, not an active formation. Since he knew there were no Formation Masters other than him in the group, he skipped it for now too.

"I recommend everyone to take two Escape Tokens. I will take two as well."

Ken said and purchased two tokens. Again, he let them float outside for a moment to let the others see.

"I agree."

Tiara approached first and purchased two tokens. She knew the dangers lurking in the inheritance grounds, and it was a great way to preserve her life. Alaric did the same, but Daisy who wanted to part from the group chose to pay for four tokens.

Ken guessed that the prizes were set for a group of five since they entered with that number.

"Twenty Sixth-grade Core Purification Pills for 4,000 BP per pill, their name is self-explanatory. A single unit of sixth-rank Slavery Collar for 40,000 BP, an item that can enslave cultivators of the sixth stage or weaker. A seventh-grade weapon of your choice for 150,000 BP. Last, we have a map of the secret realm including dangerous places and information on them for 100,000 BP."

Ken finished counting all the prizes, and the team seemed to be pondering whether they should take anything other than the tokens. Although the rewards were good, their nature was mostly evil. As for the Core Purification Pills, nobody needed them since they never tainted their cores.

Ken on the other hand knew that he wanted a lot from that list. The only rewards he didn't want were the Terror Talismans and the Bloodlust Boost Pills.

"Daisy, since you're leaving the team, you can choose first and leave."

Ken said with a cold voice, and Daisy blinked in embarrassment when she saw the three's attention focused on her.

"Tiara, what about you, will you remain in a group where you might get backstabbed, or will you leave with me?"

Daisy turned to Tiara who remained silent during the earlier argument. She believed that she could convince the other lady of the group to come with her, increasing her survivability considerably. Alas, Ken had other plans.

"I was invited to the Serene Lotus Sect before I was sucked into the secret realm and was promised to be a core disciple. If you remain in my group, you can join the sect with me."

Ken gave a charming smile as he waved the discipleship token Elmer gave him when the elder from the Four Seasons Sect tried to kill him. He knew that Tiara's priority was to join a powerful sect, and now that she lost her entrance ticket to the Divine Sword Sect, his offer would tilt the decision in his favor.

Tiara raised her eyebrows in surprise when she saw the token. On one hand, she was reluctant to remain with Ken since it seemed that everyone around him got killed. First Diana and Jane, and now the other three. However, she understood that the death of the last 3 stemmed from their own mistake.
