"Greatest harvest, huh..."
Wen Yu picked up the clothes and the token, giving them a simple glance.
The clothes were just clothes, not even a magical item, and the token was the same.
Alright, if you say it's the greatest, then it is!
Confusing matters, Wen Yu decisively left to those who understood to handle.
He pointed at the two items in his hand and glanced at the Heaven-Piercing Demon Vine with a smirk.
"What should I do with these two 'greatest harvests' next?"
"You won't wear the clothes? You don't know how to use the ID card?"
The response from the Heaven-Piercing Demon Vine was as sharp as usual.
...
Although the robe wasn’t a magical item, the material was indeed exquisite, fitting comfortably and smoothly on the body.
The cool touch invigorated Wen Yu’s spirit—it was puzzling how something that wasn’t even a magical item could uplift his mood, but it didn’t hinder his change of impression towards the robe.
This item might not be as mundane as he had imagined.
Wen Yu perked up and looked closely at the robe.
The pure black robe, seemingly silk, had no patterns at all, making it appear as just a piece of black fabric.
Wen Yu even nearly bulged his eyes out but found no special features of the robe.
"Just a robe, hurry up!"
The Heaven-Piercing Demon Vine shouted impatiently at Wen Yu, who then snapped back to reality and shrugged helplessly at the Heaven-Piercing Demon Vine.
Clothes were just clothes, and the token was merely a token—at least Wen Yu hadn’t discovered any special aspects of the token either.
However, the Heaven-Piercing Demon Vine provided an explanation.
"This thing is the identity token of the Immortal Heroic World, equivalent to your Earth ID card."
"I'll teach you a mental fluctuation that triggers the restrictions within the token, which can also be considered a method of verifying identity."
An ID card, at least on Earth, was quite easy to forge; the harder part was the various means humans used to verify identity.
This token was the same; a single token meant nothing, but combined with the complex mental fluctuation, it significantly improved security.
...
The complex mental fluctuation didn’t take Wen Yu too long; about half an hour later, after he fully grasped the fluctuation, the Heaven-Piercing Demon Vine slowly emerged from Wen Yu's right hand and pointed towards the door.
"Put away the token and go straight out; I'll guide you."
Upon hearing this, Wen Yu felt his whole body gradually becoming ethereal.
The dark power activated once again.
However, before the dark transformation was complete, it was interrupted by the Heaven-Piercing Demon Vine.
"No need to hide your form; just walk out, hold your head high, puff out your chest, and act confidently."
Wen Yu was taken aback—his appearance now differed quite a bit from the natives of the Immortal Heroic World. He thought it better to hide a bit than to not hide at all.
But from the Heaven-Piercing Demon Vine's words, Wen Yu suddenly understood a fact.
It seemed that the special identity arranged for him by the Heaven-Piercing Demon Vine could perfectly offset any slight differences in appearance.
Thinking of this, Wen Yu had no objections—being able to walk openly on the street was much better than sneaking around like a thief!
...
Walking with purposeful and strong strides down the streets of Lingyun City, Wen Yu noticed the passersby, variously dressed skeletons, casting curious glances at him.
Sticking with the principle laid out by the Heaven-Piercing Demon Vine, Wen Yu paid no heed to these gazes; instead, he took the opportunity to openly observe the skeletons and the architecture in Lingyun City.
The appearance of the skeletons went without saying, but upon observing some details, Wen Yu discovered even more differences.
More powerful souls in the Immortal Heroic World often had more complete physical structures compared to weaker ones; he even saw some flesh on a peak-level five skeleton that hadn’t fully decayed.
