The Spring of the Little Cultivator
"I will pay attention!" Small Knife nodded. He had already considered this aspect because the Grand Elder had also warned him about it.
Small Knife looked again at the little sign.
Yin Du Merchant, Jue Wuguang’s trading channel. Advance payment: 585754 Iron Coins.
Function: Summon the Yin Du Merchant, Jue Wuguang for trading.
Hint 1: Due to the advance payment, it seems that Jue Wuguang is also required to complete the transaction with you for the merchant’s rules.
"Had I known, I’d have paid more." Small Knife muttered in his heart.
Nonetheless, these can also buy quite a few residual souls of the little cultivator.
Afterwards, Small Knife chatted happily with the little cultivator, talking about the outside world and cultivation techniques.
Unfortunately, the little cultivator couldn’t help Small Knife to see if he had a spirit root. He could only explain the cultivation precautions, how to strive hard on his own to awaken the spirit and become a cultivator, and so on.
Of course, the premise of all this is that you must have a spirit root; otherwise, no matter how much you cultivate, it is useless.
Even the little cultivator had only heard of, but never seen, the treasures that could acquire spirit roots.
Their value was extremely high, and not many great cultivators have a few heirs with such lucky opportunities.
Moreover, treasures capable of nurturing spirit roots also have significant other uses.
Suddenly, the black dot beside him expanded sharply, turning into a huge black vortex.
This startled Small Knife.
Upon closer look, the black vortex rapidly shrunk and disappeared.
"This is this time’s transaction! Money’s been deducted." The accompanying voice was clearly from the Yin Du Merchant.
Beep: Transaction initiated, goods, owed small cultivator, quantity of three, unit price: 9999 Iron Coins, whether to purchase.
Hint: The transaction was never closed; you just didn’t notice. Once you confirm, the transaction closes.
Three stone statues fell to the ground.
At a glance, they were all owed little cultivators.
This made Small Knife very happy, carefully staring at the place where the black vortex disappeared. Wow, it really was there, a pinhole-sized black dot, probably always there, and he actually overlooked it.
Then he directly chose to confirm the purchase.
Then the little dot disappeared.
"These are all yours now," Small Knife generously said to the little cultivator, then checked the little sign, and sure enough, the money was deducted.
The change came too quickly, knocking him out with surprise, and the little cultivator immediately got excited.
His petrified lower half was rapidly recovering, soon fully restored, and then he stepped up in front of the three stone statues of himself.
Holding back his inner excitement, he placed his hand on the first one.
This stone statue directly crumbled, just like that, into nothingness.
Beep: Congratulations, your Daoist Soldier, Little Cultivator (Residual Soul), obtained a trace of the Original Residual Soul, leveling up to Level 90, and the soul solidified a bit.
Next was the second one.
Beep: Congratulations, your Daoist Soldier, Little Cultivator (Residual Soul), obtained a trace of the Original Residual Soul, leveling up to Level 100, and the soul solidified a bit.
Level 100, that’s the limit for mortals.
Small Knife was somewhat excited, as there was still one statue left.
Soon, the third statue also turned into nothingness.
Beep: Congratulations, your Daoist Soldier, Little Cultivator (Residual Soul), obtained a trace of the Original Residual Soul, leveling up to Level 101, and the soul solidified a bit.
Dazed, is the gap after level 100 so big? Why only level up by one?
Daoist Soldier (Little Cultivator): Daoist Lord: Small Knife, Special State: Residual Soul, Evaluation Level: 101, Experience: 0. Life: 89%, Level Cap: 101.
Two Spirit Roots: Gold, Water. Loyalty: 100.
Lifebound Skill: Xinjin Sword Qi: 10 (Missing Lifebound Treasure, unable to recover, use consumes experience or reduces level).
Extraordinary Level Skills: Water Healing Skill, Little Spirit Rain Skill, Talisman Drawing Skill, Petrification Technique, Golden Light Arrow...!
Hint 1: Residual soul state, the residual soul is weakening every second, the petrification state can avoid weakening.
Hint 2: In the current state, can maintain one hour of active state per day, residual soul not weakening.
Hint 3: Sacrificing one hour of active state, an Extraordinary Level Skill can be used once.
Hint 4: Can accumulate no more than ten hours.
"Daoist Lord, my specialty is talisman drawing; as long as I have the materials, I can draw an entry-level spirit talisman, according to this world’s rule system, it should be a talisman over Level 100." The little cultivator was eager to demonstrate his value at this moment.
"Materials are currently unavailable, but I’ll think of something soon," Small Knife nodded.
Next, study the cultivation technique. If I could grasp the basics, that would be great.
If not, the Golden Bell Shield must also achieve something, then it would be time to go out into the world.
Hmm, leaving the Newbie Village.
It feels like Ah Shan’s strength suddenly soared and he comprehended divine techniques, showing signs of becoming the primary fighter besides the little cultivator.
The most important thing is that Ah Shan was raised from childhood, and is trustworthy.
In good spirits, Small Knife went to the warehouse, planning to take out Demon Crystals to reward Ah Shan.
Then he was dumbfounded, looking around, where are the Demon Crystals?
Why are there only five left?
Remember, quite a few fierce beasts were killed?
"Master Brother! Didn’t you say if Ah Shan needs them, just feed him? Fierce Beast Meat is enough, Demon Crystals can be taken as needed." Grand Steward Xiu’Er quickly ran over, somewhat nervous.
Small Knife scratched his head, recalling vaguely.
But haven’t I logged off only a few times? When did Xiu’Er feed them?
Forget it, regardless, Ah Shan’s strength boost is a good thing.
"Right, that’s how it should be. Considering Ah Shan’s strength, it’s all worth it." Small Knife smiled and patted Xiu’Er’s little head, making him less nervous.
