Chapter 585 - 585 Copy
Our bored gamer got his pot of gold in the forest near the city of Navi.
He did not know who left it but judging by the fully decayed condition of the wooden chest, its original owner had already long passed away at this time.
Thus, Clark did not feel guilty at all in acquiring an owner-less item from out here in the wild.
"Hmmm... This much gold should be enough to return what I borrowed from those hapless rich people." Our good gamer smiled and then his figure vanished in the horizon.
Before that night ended, he had already delivered the payments with triple the interest of what he stole.
It did not need telling that the rich men and women from before were surprised to see this huge sum of wealth just magically appear on their beds.
They were glad and were much richer than ever!
"SIGH!"
"It\'s really hard to be a good man in this world."
"But at least someone has got to try." Clark smiled and began planning ahead already. Han Chai has still not gotten back and so he has much time to think about what he should do next.
"How far is the nearest immortal sect from here, Nancy?" Our avid gamer asked his handy system.
"The nearest immortal sect is approximately 40,000 kilometers away from your position, host."
"The sect is called Hidden Mountain Palace. It would take you at least 1 month of nonstop travel in order to get to that particular domain, host."
Nancy supplied with this important information.
"Hmmm... A month, huh?"
"I guess I could start tomorrow then."
"But before that, I need to make preparations on what to do with my sister Han Chai." Clark said out loud and spent a long long time thinking about how he should approach this difficulty.
"I\'m here, brother!" Han Chai came back and our bored gamer was still thinking about the problem.
They ate dinner next until Han Chai slept soundly at his side and yet the same question persisted in the mind of our very own protagonist.
In the end, he arrived at the only solution he could find.
"Are there any clone techniques in this city, Nancy?" Clark asked.
"Negative, host." Nancy replied sadly.
"I see. Then I need to create a technique of my own." Our bored gamer concluded in the end.

Days passed and Clark was completely absorbed by his technique creation.
"BOOM!"
"BOOM!"
"BOOM!"
.
..
...
Intermittent explosions could be heard from an isolated mountain that was very far away from Navi City. Not a single soul got news of this curious affair.
Our bored gamer was of course subtle in his quest.
"Another failure." Clark sighed for the umpteenth time. What he was trying to do was create a clone of himself from the collection of Qi in the world.
He was not thinking of creating something so complex and was content on just making the most basic human clone.
Alas, he did not expect that even this simple task was taking him too long to achieve.
"I can\'t give up halfway." Our bored gamer was stubborn by nature and thus, he continued his experiment.
"BOOM!"
"BOOM!"
"BOOM!"
.
..
...
The same explosions followed some more for a whole week until a happy laughter echoed out in this far away mountain.
"I\'ve done it!" Our bored gamer roared and there was pride in his voice. Before him was a multi-colored being that appeared more alien than any human in this world.
But that did not dishearten our avid gamer at all since he has an absolute connection with this impromptu clone of his.
This was his original technique in this world and thus, he has only the greatest love of this creation.
One should know that doing this kind of thing while only in the 1st Stage of Gold Core Realm was totally unprecedented.
If others tried it, they would have to spend thousands of years getting any fruitful results. But Clark only did it for a week and some spare hours.
It did not need saying that our bored gamer was truly a genius in cultivation, with or without his cheats.
"Now what to do with this body?" Clark mused after a time when he realized that a colorful humanoid can\'t exactly pass as a real human. This masterpiece needed skin and hair.
Unfortunately, there was only one source he could get to further improve this human artifact.
"Let\'s do it then." Our bored gamer smiled and hunted the many wilds in this part of the world. He got a myriad of collections for his next experiment.
There were elk, moose, mule deer, white-tailed deer, pronghorn, mountain goat, bighorn sheep, black bear, grey wolf, etc.
"Next, I need to find out how good I am at imitating myself." Clark whispered and then without ado, began to slap skin, hair, and other stuff into the being made out of pure qi alone.
"Hmmm... Too feminine." Our good gamer commented on his first try. He tried again and...
"Tsk. Tsk. A grave sickly looking. I look like a corpse." Clark shared a laugh with his own clone as he continued to try to perfect his craft.
A whole day passed and it was then that he stopped working his hands around his silent clone.
"Barely passable." Our bored gamer said mildly but in truth, he was already very much content with his work. The skin, hair, nails, etc. on the clone would not rot and fall off from his clone body because of the constant blessing of qi in the world.
"Though this clone is only of the mortal level and not even at the True Qi Realm of cultivation base but that won\'t matter much at all."
"I would leave behind hundreds of stored techniques of both the Ten Thousand Phantom Fists and Exploding Sun Art on this clone\'s body."
"That would be enough to ascertain the safety of both the clone and my sister." Clark muttered at this finish.
It was of course ludicrous to take his sister inside a sect especially when she was only a mortal at this time. Thus, he could only resort to a petty trick like this.
"Hidden Mountain Palace! Here I come!"
