Wait, How Did My Digital Girlfriend Become a Sword Immortal? Chapter 566: This is a Fusion of Demonic Beasts and Mechanical Arts!

Chapter 566: This is a Fusion of Demonic Beasts and Mechanical Arts!

...

Real Person Yuyao watched as all the old monsters lay comfortably on massage chairs, thoroughly enjoying themselves.

Only she didn't have one, making her feel utterly miserable, as if countless ants were crawling all over her body.

Yet she couldn't bring herself to ask Chen Huaian for one, so she could only stand there staring helplessly.

"The failure rate in developing these massage chairs is extremely high." Chen Huaian showed a troubled expression and said with a bitter smile: "After all, combining demonic creatures with mechanical arts is too extreme—nine out of ten suffer soul collapse. That's why production is very limited, materials are expensive, and the price isn't really suitable for purchase... If you really want to buy one, it's ten thousand spirit crystals per chair."

Screw the consequences.

He went straight for an outrageous price.

Blade Sect Leader Fu Hongyu's face immediately turned green. He cupped his hands respectfully and silently returned to his massage chair.

"Senior, this junior was just daydreaming."

"No problem." Chen Huaian waved his hand dismissively: "Buy if you can, no big deal if you don't. However, if you're willing to join Moon Shadow Sect as an honorary elder, you can bring disciples to experience our massage chairs every month.

I will establish a massage pavilion within Moon Shadow Sect, fully equipped with Xiao Ai Smart Massage Chairs.

Making it convenient for all disciples to enjoy relaxation time after cultivation.

Of course, directly joining our Moon Shadow Sect would be best—all resources would be free whenever possible. After all, thunder essence stones aren't worth much anyway."

Chen Huaian waved his hand grandly, fully displaying his lavish generosity.

Thunder essence stones—natural minerals that absorb heavenly thunder energy—were abundantly produced in Cangyun Realm.

But their spiritual energy was too violent to utilize effectively, with only some demonic beasts consuming these minerals.

As a primary material for artifact forging, thunder essence stones were too soft.

As supplementary material, their thunder energy proved difficult to control.

In short, this resource was practically useless—not worth keeping yet too wasteful to discard.

However, in the thunder element conduction array purchased from the Electronic Girlfriend store, they became perfect batteries, providing clean, stable power output. An ordinary thunder essence stone could already power a massage chair for an entire year.

Hearing that honorary elders could bring disciples to enjoy massage chairs anytime,

Fu Hongyu was already feeling tempted.

Though Moon Shadow Sect was far from Blade Sect, for Chen Sword Master, it was just a matter of setting up a teleportation array.

With Moon Shadow Sect's vast resources, building a teleportation array would be child's play.

And honorary elders, frankly speaking during peacetime, were just figureheads—only required to report to Moon Shadow Sect during wartime. Normally they didn't need to reside at the sect, and he could remain Blade Sect leader without Moon Shadow Sect interfering in Blade Sect's management...

Looking at it this way... wasn't Chen Sword Master basically doing charity?

What was there to hesitate about?!

"If honorary elders truly don't need to report to Moon Shadow Sect daily, with no freedom restrictions... this humble monk would be quite interested in becoming your sect's honorary elder." Fa Dahai pondered internally—no elder responsibilities yet could enjoy Moon Shadow Sect's resources? Could such good fortune truly exist in this world?

Many of his Zen Sect techniques involved body cultivation methods.

Many disciples suffered from exhaustion after practice, resulting in poor condition the next day, forcing them to rest or undergo medicinal baths.

But medicinal baths consumed too many resources, while smart massage chairs could achieve similar fatigue relief effects.

The cost being just replacing one thunder essence stone per year...

This meant everything to Zen Sect disciples!

"I guarantee that honorary elders are just honorary—mere figureheads." Chen Huaian flashed a toothy smile: "Nothing more, I simply enjoy making friends! And when making friends, one should be generous—no empty gestures!"

Yet internally he thought—Join, all of you join!

Bring your disciples to wander around beautiful Moon Shadow Sect whenever you want.

Let them see how Moon Shadow Sect disciples casually access various benefits.

Let them witness how what they consider top-tier treatment is just daily life for Moon Shadow Sect disciples.

Day after day, year after year of corruption.

Even disciples with the firmest dao hearts couldn't resist such temptation.

Eventually they would all join Moon Shadow Sect, and everyone would enjoy together!

Hehehe!

"In that case, this humble monk wishes to join Moon Shadow Sect! Become Moon Shadow Sect's honorary elder!"

Fa Dahai was the first to commit.

The bold feast while the timid starve.

Since Moon Shadow Sect's rise had become unstoppable, better to choose sides early.

"Hahaha! Excellent! Wonderful! Master Fa, from now on we're sect brothers."

Chen Huaian signaled Li Qingran to bring the sect uniform and waist token to Fa Dahai.

After all, the man was still a sect leader, so having Li Qingran as sect leader handle this personally showed full respect and face.

"This humble monk knows you—you're Chen Sword Master's disciple. Meeting you today, you're indeed as impressive as they say!"

Fa Dahai had studied some qi observation techniques and could see tremendous fortune rising above Li Qingran's head.

With such terrifying fortune, it made perfect sense for someone at mere mid Nascent Soul stage to lead Moon Shadow Sect.

Not to mention she had Chen Sword Master himself backing her.

"Welcome, Master Fa, to our Moon Shadow Sect." Li Qingran smiled sweetly, delivering maximum emotional value.

Fa Dahai's lingering reluctance about preferring to be a big fish in a small pond instantly vanished beneath that smile.

He remembered Technician 18 again.

Now he was a Moon Shadow Sect elder.

He could seek Technician 18 for free every month, providing her with 'assistance'.

"Amitabha." Fa Dahai accepted the sect uniform and token, pressing his palms together.

He sighed inwardly: Buddha, have you seen how wonderful life at Moon Shadow Sect is?

Zen Sect was truly too austere.

Now merely by becoming Moon Shadow Sect's honorary elder, he had Unity Realm fairies massaging his legs, and Great Ascension Stage cultivators' disciples treating him respectfully. This kind of treatment... his position as mere Zen Sect leader couldn't possibly compare.

It wasn't that he had lost Buddha in his heart.

Buddha remained within him.

It's just that the Buddha's young acolyte now somewhat resembled Technician 18.

With Zen Sect being the first to succumb to corruption,

Several other sects immediately followed suit—all smaller sects with good relations with Zen Sect who usually followed Zen Sect's lead.

Blade Sect Leader Fu Hongyu maintained a stern expression, still able to resist the temptation.

He wanted to see if Moon Shadow Sect had anything more appealing to offer.

Spirit Beast Sect Leader Tang San also held out.

Mainly because these massage chairs were special demonic creatures—he worked with demonic beasts daily and had developed some immunity.

...

At the edge of the massage chair area, Real Person Yuyao wore an unpleasant expression.

She stared contemptuously at the enjoying elders and sect leaders around her.

"Hmph! Just some broken chairs, and they treasure them like this?"

Despite her words, everything about her radiated bitterness.

Were these chairs really that miraculous?

That comfortable?

And this fusion of demonic beasts and mechanical arts... she couldn't sense any array formations or demonic beast aura at all.

But... if not demonic beasts, not mechanical arts...

Then why did these massage chairs produce human voices? Why did they obey commands like mechanical constructs?

Real Person Yuyao couldn't figure it out no matter how hard she thought.

The cultivator she was staring at intensely couldn't take it anymore.

He was just an elder from a minor sect, his cultivation far inferior to Real Person Yuyao's. Her intense stare felt oppressive, like he was about to be devoured.

"Um, senior, would you... like to try?"

Unable to endure the pressure any longer, he finally asked in a small voice.

"Hmph! Do you think I care about some broken chair?" Real Person Yuyao snorted coldly, glaring at the cultivator: "What are you standing around for? Move aside! I'll see what tricks Moon Shadow Sect is playing today!"

The cultivator: "..."
