Chapter 186: Chapter 129: Full-scale Spiritual Energy Recovery

Gu Qing had seen this Thousand-Change Robe the first time he came to the storeroom, and he had been thinking about it ever since.

With his Muscle Knots Attribute, his clothes would burst every time he transformed, which was a huge source of frustration for him.

And the most notable feature of the Thousand-Change Robe was its incredibly high-strength material.

Impervious to blades.

Impervious to fire.

Impervious to water.

Impervious to electricity.

To a certain extent, it could even boost the wearer’s defense.

Furthermore, it could freely shrink or expand and transform into any style.

You could say that owning the Thousand-Change Robe was like owning every piece of clothing in the world.

And Gu Qing needed a set of clothes exactly like this.

So, without a second thought, he turned to the staff member beside him and said, "I’ve decided. I want this Thousand-Change Robe."

The staff member asked, "Are you sure?"

Gu Qing nodded. "I’m sure."

The staff member offered some well-intentioned advice. "This Thousand-Change Robe is an Extraordinary Item. You need to regularly replenish it with Extraordinary Power to keep its effects active."

"But you’re just an Extraordinary Contactor. You can’t generate your own Extraordinary Power to constantly recharge it, so it’s not very useful for you."

"So, instead of exchanging your reward for an Extraordinary Item that looks good but isn’t practical, you’d be better off getting some Extraordinary Resources that can increase your personal strength, like Exotic Flowers and Fruits or a Miracle Elixir."

Honestly, the staff member couldn’t understand why Gu Qing would choose the Thousand-Change Robe.

If Gu Qing were a woman, then he could understand.

After all, women have a greater need for clothes. In their eyes, a Thousand-Change Robe that could transform into any style was the number one Divine Artifact in the world, completely worth trading a D-Level Extraordinary Resource reward for.

But Gu Qing was a man, which made the Thousand-Change Robe a waste for him. It wasn’t worth exchanging a D-Level Extraordinary Resource reward for at all.

But what the staff member didn’t know was that Gu Qing, with his label add-on, could get stronger quickly just by spending a little time extracting Attributes from the labels above other people’s heads.

To him, Extraordinary Resources like Exotic Flowers and Fruits or Miracle Elixirs were the real waste.

To put it simply, the power boost from eating a Six-Flavor Rehmannia Fruit was far less than the improvement from gaining a single point of True Martial Arts Dao.

As for the problem of recharging the Thousand-Change Robe...

’Hm, that’s an easy problem to solve.’

’Before I become an Extraordinary Awakened, I can just ask Sister Zhiyi to help me recharge it periodically.’

With that in mind, Gu Qing didn’t take the staff member’s advice.

His tone was firmer than ever before.

"Thanks for the warning, but I just want this Thousand-Change Robe."

"Alright then."

Seeing how insistent he was, the staff member tactfully didn’t press the matter.

He just stepped forward, took down the Thousand-Change Robe, and handed it to him to try on.

Although the name "Thousand-Change Robe" contained the word for clothing, it wasn’t just a single garment.

Instead, it included a top, pants, underwear, shoes, and socks—a complete set.

Gu Qing took the complete set of the Thousand-Change Robe from the staff member and immediately started trying it on right where he stood.

He didn’t take off his own clothes, simply putting the Thousand-Change Robe on over them.

Seeing this, Xia Shuran and Liu Yue, who were standing to the side, both showed a fleeting trace of disappointment.

The two had just been secretly hoping for a chance to admire Gu Qing’s firm muscles.

They never expected that Gu Qing wouldn’t take his clothes off at all.

Their hopes were instantly dashed.

A pang of regret surfaced in their hearts.

In just a few moments, Gu Qing had slipped on the entire lightweight, breathable set of the Thousand-Change Robe.

Then, as if self-taught, a thought crossed his mind, and he began to casually change its style.

A loose basketball uniform, a sleek soccer uniform, a crisp business suit, and even stiff metal armor—Gu Qing transformed it into each one at will.

Xia Shuran, Wu Jiahao, and Liu Yue watched, captivated. Their faces were full of amazement, and they kept exclaiming how magical it was.

"Senior, can I try on your Thousand-Change Robe too?"

Xia Shuran took a half-step forward, her eyes filled with anticipation as she looked at Gu Qing and asked.

The Thousand-Change Robe was so magical; watching it made her heart itch with the desire to try it herself.

Gu Qing replied, "Of course, you can."

With that, he took off the entire Thousand-Change Robe and handed it to his junior, Xia Shuran, whose eyes were full of expectation.

Xia Shuran reached out, took the Thousand-Change Robe, and immediately began trying it on.

Just like Gu Qing had done, she didn’t take off her own clothes, simply putting the entire Thousand-Change Robe on over them.

’Actually, if I could, I’d want to take off my clothes before putting it on,’

’that way I could better feel the... aura... left on the Thousand-Change Robe. Yes, the aura Gu Qing left on it when he just tried it on.’

’Even though Gu Qing was wearing his own clothes underneath, his hands and feet were bare, so they would have left plenty of his aura on it.’

A basketball uniform, a soccer uniform, a suit, armor...

After a little experimentation, Xia Shuran also quickly grasped how to use the Thousand-Change Robe and began to constantly change its style.

Every style was exactly the same as the ones Gu Qing had just transformed it into, a pure copy-paste.

’There’s nothing for it. I just want to have more in common with Gu Qing. I want to be as close to him as possible in every way, to be willingly led by the nose by him.’

"Gu Qing, can I try it on too?"

Liu Yue was very interested in the Thousand-Change Robe and wanted to experience it for herself.

Wu Jiahao also chimed in, "Count me in, I want to try it too!"

Gu Qing had no objections. "Then you should all give it a try."
