He blinked and thought for a moment, and the next moment, the shadow suddenly changed into a sharp and slender shadow knife.
The shadow knife was suspended in front of him, swaying slightly.
Qin Jinnian's eyes lit up and he subconsciously wanted to chop something.
The shadow knife was immediately raised high, almost reaching the ceiling.
But after the knife was raised, Qin Jinnian was stunned again...
Turning around...
There seems to be nothing to test the knife?
...You can't tear down your own things, right? Although, it has been destroyed once.
Oh, by the way, this is not my home, the house is rented... the furniture and other things belong to the landlord... I have to find a way to deal with them later.
He is a student with no source of income and is a bit distressed now.
Thinking of this, Shadow Blade fell back in front of him in dismay...
Sure enough, poverty is the best restraint.
In the end, he just touched the shadow knife.
Cold, hard...
Well, the touch of the shadow knife does seem to be a bit different from the previous shadow-changing one.
It seems... a little colder and harder? After studying it for a while, he thought again.
"I wonder how far the shadow can reach now..."
Thinking of this, he subconsciously looked towards the window.
Then he was stunned...
It was bright outside, and at this moment, my dark shadow tentacles emerged.
Then someone will probably come to the door soon...
“Forget it, let’s find a deserted place to try this later. Anyway, I felt it during the previous battle with the monster, and the maximum length at that time should be about four or five meters. And then the bugs ran out, and I wanted to kill them, but I could feel that the limit of the number of times the shadow could split was... fifty.”
"Now that it's upgraded... it should become longer..."
He thought to himself.
But since he couldn't test it immediately, he could only let the shadow slowly return to his feet.
Then there was a wry smile.
"But I only have 10 points of mental strength. Although it's more than before, it's limited... I'm still a three-second man..."
Mental strength is the biggest problem now.
But now he doesn't even know how to improve his rank.
What should I do? Qin Jinnian was a little distressed and subconsciously looked at the text on the panel.
However, after seeing this, he was stunned...
[Shadow Points -100, you upgrade the basic power 'Shadow Control'. ]
[Basic authority 'Shadow Control', upgraded successfully. Current level: Lv: 1.]
[Your 'personality' has been improved. Current 'personality' is at the initial awakening level I.]
The next moment, his eyes suddenly widened.
Status, improved?! He quickly looked at the spiritual item on the panel...
Sure enough, a plus sign appeared behind the spiritual item...
“…”
"So, personhood...is related to authority? Upgrading authority means upgrading personhood?"
His eyes lit up, and then he quickly looked towards the shadow spot.
The shadow point is still 117.29.
Then he quickly found the authority item to see if he could continue to upgrade...
As a result, the plus sign is still there.
But when I clicked on it, it showed...
Only 'Dark Pupil' and 'Shadow Devourer' can be upgraded.
'Shadow Control' cannot be upgraded any further.
I don't know how many shadow points are needed to upgrade 'Shadow Control' now?
He felt a little disappointed, but soon his eyes flickered on 'Dark Pupils' and 'Shadow Devourer', and he pondered secretly in his heart.
A moment later...
"At present, it seems that the only passive skill of Dark Eyes is quite outstanding. It can be immune to any mental pollution originating from the Dark Abyss. This passive skill is naturally extremely important... but since it is already there, there is not much point in upgrading it."
"Then let's go with Shadow Devour."
"Maybe it will increase the swallowing speed?"
[Shadow Points -100, you upgrade the basic authority 'Shadow Devourer'. ]
[Basic authority 'Shadow Devourer', upgraded successfully. Current level: Lv: 1...]
It was almost the same as Shadow Control. When Shadow Devourer was upgraded, Qin Jinnian's brain buzzed. The next moment, he seemed to see the scene that disappeared after a quick sweep.
This time he was prepared, and he hurried to see it carefully.
But in the end, he only vaguely saw a piece of land wrapped in dark fog... and then his mind was stunned by the continuous roar.
Then I woke up...
I still couldn't see clearly what was in the darkness.
He was stunned for a moment, then seemed to be thinking about something.
But in the end, he didn't think too much about it and just looked at the panel.
Sure enough, Shadow Devourer has reached level 1.
The description has not changed either.
Now that he had nothing to eat, there was no way to measure the changes in Shadow Devourer. Did it speed up the devouring process? Or did it strengthen the feedback after devouring?
Of course, this is not the point. The point is... has the status changed? Qin Jinnian looked at the "status" item.
But he found that his status was still 'Initial Awakening I', without any change.
"So, it's about quality... not quantity?"
He exhaled.
In fact, he had expected it, so he was not that disappointed.
After all, he had figured out what personhood was.
That's it.
Looking at the plus sign on his mental strength, Qin Jinnian said without hesitation: "Add some more!"
[You use 2 attribute points, mental strength +1...]
As soon as the text appeared on the panel, Qin Jinnian was stunned.
The skin on the back twitched slightly.
Well, that was actually expected.
Isn't this the usual routine of online games in the past? When the level is low, one X point is exchanged for one attribute point.
As the level increases, the required points will increase...
It seems that these attribute points nowadays are actually not many.
Needless to say, after your cultivation level is improved, your vitality will probably need 2 attribute points to exchange for one vitality point.
But there is no need to worry about these things now, just improve your mental strength first. At least you can't be a three-second man.
With the ability to control the shadow, his biggest weakness now is that he lacks endurance.
It is worth paying any attribute points to make up for this shortcoming.
He no longer hesitated and continued to add more.
[You use 2 attribute points, mental strength +1...]
[You use 2 attribute points, mental strength +1...]
[You use 2 attribute points, mental strength +1...]
…
Soon, the mental strength reached 20.
But this is obviously not the limit of 'First Awakening I'.
[You use 3 attribute points, mental strength +1...]
You can add more.
But the attribute point consumption has become 3 points...
Qin Jinnian's face twitched again.
After his mental strength increased to 20, his mind was clear, he felt refreshed, full of energy, and unprecedented peace and comfort.
But the attribute points have changed from 98.14 to 78.14.
The consumption increased by another 1 point, but after Qin Jinnian hesitated for a moment, he gritted his teeth and continued to add!
Mental strength is related to his lasting problem.
A man can be good at everything except lasting! This is related to a man's dignity.
As a result, the attribute points plummeted, and the mental strength increased little by little...
