Val may not have come across the ingredients he needed to make the potion in the other shops of the treasure pavilion, but he did come across items that he thought would greatly augment his current arsenal of weapons.

In one shop, he discovered a variety of specially made smoke bombs. Unlike conventional smoke bombs that needed to be lit up for use, these were tailor-made for wizards.

By simply injecting one's soul power into them, they could be triggered to detonate within a second. Soul power was invisible to the naked eye. And Val had a pocket dimension. With this combination, he would catch anyone off guard!

The smoke bomb once detonated could engulf a vast area in a thick blanket of smoke, rendering those with normal vision blind. However, with his Heavenly Eye, Val would be able to see through the smoke. Essentially, these smoke bombs could shift any situation drastically in his favor. They were extremely useful to him!

They cost him 500 contribution points a piece, and he decided to purchase ten of them, spending a whopping 5000 contribution points in an instant.n0vElusb.C0m

In another shop, he found an artifact armor known as "The Aegis of Light" and bought it.

This armor held the incredible ability to generate a holy shield that could repel evil entities such as devils and ghosts. It provided a considerable advantage in fights against such entities. However, this significant upgrade did come at a hefty price - it cost him 7000 contribution points.

The investment was steep. However, Val knew the protection granted to him by the armor will prove invaluable when he exorcise the haunted house and make it free of evil spirits once and for all!

"Is there nothing else I can buy?"



Val's eyes swept around the treasure pavilion one last time. Suddenly, his gaze landed on an old, rusty ancient sword, tucked away in a shop located in a quiet corner of the pavilion.

The sword seemed unremarkable, almost forgettable, yet when Val laid his eyes on it, his sixth sense flared up, and his entire body throbbed with a sense of foreboding. It was a clear sign that the sword held some hidden danger and unknown potential, and he wasn't going to ignore it.

Without hesitation, Val cast Detect on the sword. Almost immediately, a system notification popped up in front of him, displaying a semi-transparent screen with the true name of the rusty sword and its attributes.

[True Name: The Voidslayer.

Danger Level: 7

Description:

The Voidslayer possesses an intriguing quality — it is imbued with spatial magic. It might look like a rusty sword that will break with a single punch, but it is made from Heaven Meteorite that can survive the brutal hammering of a thousand meteorites without breaking. Its true form can be unleashed by washing it with soul power. The cursed sword has the ability to bypass all defenses and strike the intended target as it is imbued with spatial magic. The target can be designated by its user. The sword also has the ability to consume other cursed swords to increase its strength. The stat-boosting effects and special abilities of the cursed swords it devours become a part of it.]

Basically, the Voidslayer cursed sword had two skills. Spatial Slash and Devour!

Moreover, its danger level was 7, meaning it was potentially more dangerous than Aquarius. The Voidslayer was undoubtedly stronger than a rank-3 cursed artifact!

'It's most likely a rank-2 cursed artifact.'

At this revelation, Val's facial expression changed. He suddenly stared at the rusty sword as if he had discovered a golden, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

The allure of its hidden power and the potential it held ignited the desire to obtain it no matter what the cost in his heart.

Val immediately made his way over to the shop located at the corner of the pavilion to purchase it. The shop owner, an old man with a balding head, droopy eyes, and a grumpy face adorned with age spots, stood behind the counter with a hunched back. He didn't even bother greeting Val as he entered the shop.

Val approached the owner. "Boss, is that sword for sale?" he asked while pointing at the rusty sword stored in the weapon rack.

"Indeed, it's for sale. But it's my family's only heirloom, so it'll cost a lot," The shop owner replied.

"How much is this sword?" Val asked.

The shop owner paused for a moment before replying, "1000 contribution points."

Val was taken aback. He thought the old man would demand an exorbitant price, but 1000 points were surprisingly affordable. To acquire a rank-2 item for such a low price seemed almost surreal.

What were the chances that he would stumble upon such an opportunity while roaming in the treasure pavilion without a plan? It was close to zero!

He believed his good fortune was all thanks to Eliana's prayers, which he earned by showering her with an ocean of love. So in the end, it was all his hard work that led him to experience such a heaven-defying encounter, but Eliana's involvement in it couldn't be ignored.

'Eliana... she is truly my greatest trump card,' Val thought.

"Hold on a minute, 1000 contribution points for that rusty, old sword? That's outrageous!" The voice belonged to someone who had overheard the conversation and felt compelled to advise Val against making the purchase.

"Watch out, young man. He's just trying to pull one over on you." Another onlooker, who had caught wind of their conversation, couldn't help but caution Val.

"He has tried to sell a piece of junk as a treasure to a well-dressed gentleman just a few weeks ago and succeeded, but the gentleman found out he was scammed and reported it to the local authorities. The old man was not only forced to apologize and cough up what he'd swindled from him by the authorities but his shop was also suspended for weeks," added another. "Trust me, he doesn't mean well."

Val thought that if he didn't know the true value of the sword, he would've definitely trusted the judgment of the majority and suffered a great loss!
