"Stage name."

"If you don't want to say, then you don't want to say. Why bring up a stage name? Do you think you're Eden?" Cang Xuan said unhappily.

"Then just think of it as something like a stage name."

"..." Cang Xuan was slightly dissatisfied with Chen Luo's perfunctory attitude, but since Chen Luo didn't want to talk about it, Cang Xuan couldn't force him.

"I won't go for lunch. I just remembered I have something to do. You guys go ahead." Chen Luo suddenly remembered his schedule for the day as it was getting close to noon.

Cleanse the karmic obstacles of the demon.

"I wonder how many Primogem we can make this time."

After Cang Xuan left, Chen Luo entered Mobius's lounge and then went into the bar.

Upon entering the bar, Chen Luo saw Zhongli drinking tea and Xiao standing beside him.

"Wait, Zhongli, where did you get this tea from?" Chen Luo was taken aback.

Just as Venti can't drink alcohol when Chen Luo isn't around, logically speaking, Zhongli Li can't drink tea either.

"Brought from outside," Zhongli said after taking a sip of tea.

"... Demon Slayer, it's been a long time."

Chen Luo didn't ask Zhongli why she brought tea to the bar.

"Hmm, long time no see. I heard from Lord Zhongli that you can clear away karmic obstacles?" The Demon Slayer Xiao turned his head and asked Chen Luo.

"To be precise, it's not about clearing away karmic obstacles, but about clearing away everything related to negative emotions and negative energy. I'm very good at these things. For example, didn't you see how easily I dealt with those Archon Residue from a few days ago?"

Chen Luo dares not speak for others, but at least the Childhood Fun Park is truly an eternal god.

Who knew that something that originally just looked like a rocking horse for kids could have such a powerful function?

As expected, the random rewards were quite unexpected.

However, Chen Luo felt that the frequency of random rewards had decreased recently, whether it was Chen Luo imagination or not. Could it be that the rewards had decreased after the newbie period ended?

Or is the reward still the same reward, but the difficulty of the tasks Chen Luo has been receiving lately is generally lower than before?

Sure enough, the rewards during the initial development phase are the highest.

I wonder when a new world instance will be released.

"While you are indeed very skilled at cleaning up the Archon Residue, karmic obstacles and demonic obstacles are not entirely the same thing," Xiao said after a pause.

Chen Luo's speed and efficiency in cleaning up the Archon Residue were indeed astonishing, a fact that Xiao Shi would not deny.

"But since I can even resolve the Archon Residue, why don't you believe I can resolve karmic obstacles? Or do you think your Lord Zhongli has entrusted the wrong person?" Seeing that Xiao was still a little uncertain, Chen Luo directly brought up Zhongli.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

[Removing Karmic Obstacles]: Please do not betray Zhongli's trust and resolve the karmic obstacles on Xiao's body.

Reward: 800 Primogem + random reward.

Difficulty: 3 stars

Indeed, Zhongli is more effective for Xiao and certain immortals.

However, this mission was a little easier than Chen Luo had expected; he had originally thought it would be a four-star mission. Perhaps because Chen Luo Xiao weren't very familiar with each other, the latter didn't fully trust him, only trusting Zhongli Li.

However, as long as there are random rewards, it's not a big problem.

Moreover, not only Xiao's side, Zhongli's side also issued a task.

The Last Child of the Vigilant Yaksha

Reward: 600 Primogem + [Outdoor Scenery] (One-time use)

Difficulty: 3 stars

The name of this task is hard to describe, and the reward it gives seems rather obscure and difficult to understand; it's unclear what it's about.

To be honest, Chen Luo initially thought that the reward for saving Liyue and defeating the Demon God, the Dominus Lapidis Core Power, meant that one could have unlimited power simply by standing on the ground. However, Chen Luo later realized that he had misunderstood; it was simply a shield.

However, the shield is indeed quite thick.

Although the shield can only be applied to Chen Luo now, it can be applied to everyone once you get the hang of it.

If we were to describe it using game analogies, it would be like a combination of the Dominus Lapidis and the stars.

It also comes with a six-life effect. When the shield is damaged, it will restore health to the person who put the shield on. The amount restored is 40% of the damage, and the amount restored in a single instance will not exceed 8% of the current character's maximum health.

"Why are all the abilities I'm given support skills? Do you really want me to stay in the back and play a support role?" Chen Luo asked, puzzled.

Despite the confusion, the task still needed to be completed.

"What do I need to do?" asked the Demon Slayer Xiao.

"Reveal the karmic obstacles hidden within your body, and let me see just how serious they are," Chen Luo said.

Although Chen Luo could sense the immense karmic power emanating from Xiao through his inner demon abilities, he was unaware of the gravity of the situation because Xiao had concealed it.

When Xiao looked at Zhongli, and Zhongli nodded, Chen Luo realized the terrifying nature of what had happened when the intense black energy that enveloped Xiao was unleashed.

Is the Demon Slayer Xiao always carrying these things while fighting?

Chen Luo was shocked to see the pitch-black karmic obstacles that looked almost tangible.

The fact that the other party hasn't gone mad despite carrying such karmic burdens for so long is truly a miracle. Although the concentration of karmic burdens on the other party now is certainly not as high as the concentration of Archon Residue left by the demon Osial after his death, this is still something a celestial being shouldn't have to bear.

There is still a considerable gap between the Vigilant Yaksha and the demon god.

Even Chen Luo, the inner demon, was surprised by this concentration.

"Demon Slayer, it must be very difficult for you to carry such a heavy burden of karma all this time."

No wonder only Xiao survived out of the five Vigilant Yaksha. Chen Luo wasn't being sarcastic; he genuinely admired him.

The Vigilant Yaksha has endured too much.

"It's just my duty. What should I do now?" Xiao asked calmly.

"Take this." Chen Luo handed the Childhood Fun Park to Xiao.

"After I activate this magic weapon, it will pass through your brow and enter your sea of consciousness. Then your consciousness will be pulled into an amusement park, and I will go in with you to assist you."

"So what do we do after we enter the amusement park?" Xiao asked.

"That's a good question. Of course you're going to have fun once you're in the amusement park. If you don't have fun, your karmic burdens will be absorbed slowly, but it will be slow. If you have fun, they'll be absorbed much faster. You don't want Zhongli to be waiting for you outside for a long time, do you?"

"...Understood." Xiao glanced at Zhongli and nodded.

The Childhood Fun Park is essentially a toy; its most significant attribute is actually the Childhood Fun Park that comes with it, not the ability to absorb darkness.

However, Chen Luo misused this thing. He didn't really play in the amusement park, but he always used the Childhood Fun Park as a storage device for dark energy.

Therefore, unconventional methods have their own uses.

Once the Childhood Fun Park successfully entered Xiao's consciousness, Xiao's consciousness was instantly pulled into a modern amusement park.

"..." Xiao looked at the amusement park full of childlike fun in front of him and was a little lost for a moment.

"Wow, I didn't expect it to be a children's amusement park like this. I've never been here before, so I didn't know. It's amazing that Ling can play here for several months." Chen Luo said in surprise when he came in with her.

Although it features thrilling rides like Ferris wheels and roller coasters, a subtle fairytale atmosphere permeates the entire amusement park.

But that's why it's called Childhood Fun Park, isn't it?

"Okay, no problem. Now that Little Hua Ma's amusement park class is open, you can play to your heart's content after I explain how to use all the facilities in the amusement park to you," Chen Luo said to Xiao.

"Wait, what about you?" Xiao noticed the key point.

"Who would go to this fairytale-themed amusement park?"

"..."

"Ahem, I didn't say you were a child, don't misunderstand."

Although the Vigilant Yaksha's height does resemble that of a child.

Kids these days are getting ridiculously tall. One first-year junior high student was 1.8 meters tall. Can you believe it?

"How long will this state last?" Zhongli asked, glancing at Xiao, who was sitting in a daze in the chair.

"Ten days?" Chen Luo thought for a moment and said.

"Huh?" Zhongli was taken aback.

"From a purely rational standpoint, you only took half an hour to deal with the Archon Residue, so how come it took you 10 days to resolve his karmic obstacles? Is the difference really that big?"

From a purely rational perspective, if 10 days could resolve the millennia-old karmic burden on someone else, it would indeed be worthwhile, but it doesn't make sense.

"Oh, I meant he needs to play at the Childhood Fun Park for 10 days. If we convert that to the real world, well, it should be fine by the time you come tonight," Chen Luo said.

"I see. Well, although it's a bit much compared to half an hour, it's acceptable." Zhongli nodded.

"Zhongli, from a general rational point of view, the Archon Residue and karmic obstacles are different. Although he certainly doesn't have as much karmic obstacle as the Archon Residue, the key is that the Archon Residue can be fully absorbed, while Xiao's body can't handle it."

The difference between the two is like cleaning a room.

One is an empty room that can be cleaned at will, while the other is a room filled with all kinds of exquisite figurines, and those figurines are so fragile that they would break at the slightest touch.

"That makes sense."

"Hopefully he won't get tired of it within 10 days. Even a child over 50,000 years old can last for three months, surely he won't be able to last even three months?" Chen Luo thought to himself as he looked at Xiao.

"A child who is over 50,000 years old?" Zhongli was somewhat surprised by Chen Luo's strange description.

Whose child is over 50,000 years old?

"Ah, right, it's a child who's over 50,000 years old. If you calculate the time, it should be lunchtime for her."

"Ding-a-ling!" The wind chimes rang as soon as Chen Luo finished speaking.

"Brother Luo, are you there? Are you there?"

"Speak of the devil, and he appears! Here you are, the child you wanted to see, who is over 50,000 years old," Chen Luo said, pointing to Ling who ran in cheerfully.

Both Kevin and Fu Hua are over 50,000 years old, but their ages might be somewhat exaggerated because their bodies were awakened after being in cryogenic chambers for many years. Their ages are over 50,000, but their actual ages are probably only around 5,000 or 6,000.

Ling is different; Ling was truly imprisoned in the little black box for 50,000 years.

If it weren't for the Childhood Fun Park, even someone who isn't Herrscher would go crazy.

"Who's over 50,000 years old? You're the one who's over 50,000 years old!" Ling retorted immediately upon hearing Chen Luo's slander as soon as she entered.

"Oh, okay, I am indeed over 50,000 years old." After thinking about it carefully, Ke Ling realized that she was indeed over 50,000 years old.

However, unlike Kevin and the others, Ling's physical age is indeed over 50,000 years old, but her mental age is less than 20.

After all, Ling herself only felt like she had been playing in the Childhood Fun Park for more than three months during the 50,000 years in the little black box.

"..." Zhongli looked at the girl in front of him, who was several times his age, with a complicated expression.

You're telling me this person is over 50,000 years old?

Did I mishear, or did you say something wrong?

How can someone over 50,000 years old be so lively?

What about Erosion?

"Brother Luo, why did you suddenly bring this up? I'm hungry, I want to eat. I want to eat the big rice ball from Yae Village," Ling said as she ran to Chen Luo's side.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

"You're really something else. There are so many good things to eat, but you insist on eating that rice ball."

"But it has to be Xiao Yi, I can't eat such a big rice ball." Ling then made her request.

"Okay, okay."

Xiao Yi rice balls...

Chen Luo conjured up a rice ball and placed it on the bar table.

"Thank you, Brother Luo! By the way, Brother Luo, what's wrong with him?" Ling asked softly, looking at Xiao sitting there with his eyes closed.

However, Ling's quiet voice was of no use to anyone in the bar.
