Witch market.
Following a deafening bell sound.
Liu Ke, who was setting up a stall, quickly put away all the bottles and jars on the stall, fearing that if he was a step slower, the skinning deacon of the market would take the opportunity to extort a spiritual stone as a late payment fee.
"Master Liu, how many detoxification pills do you want to sell?"
Just as Liu Ke packed his bags and prepared to leave.
A delicate voice sounded behind Liu Ke: "I haven't seen you for a few days. I miss you every day~~."
Hearing the voice, Liu Ke trotted along with the bag on his shoulder without looking back, and disappeared from the stall in the blink of an eye.
Only a bright and beautiful woman in a palace skirt was left, staring at the back of a timid alchemist with a resentful look on her face.
********
"Phew~, that was a close call. I almost got seduced by that witch again!"
The other side.
Liu Ke, who fled back to his residence in a panic, leaned against the door, with a lingering fear on his face.
About a month has passed since he inexplicably came to this world and replaced the down-and-out alchemist in Wuxufang City who had the same name as himself.
In the past month or so, Liu Ke has basically taken over all the assets of his predecessor. At the same time, through the memory of his predecessor, he has almost understood what kind of world this is.
Here, although there are immortal cultivators who travel from Beihai in the morning to Cangwu in the evening, and have the ability to move stones to fill the sea and chase stars and the sun, and who have lived for hundreds or thousands of years, they stand at the end of the road, looking down on the changes in the world.
But more people are like Liu Ke's predecessor, with low spiritual root qualifications, and can only cherish a little unrealistic hope, while struggling at the bottom of the world of immortal cultivation.
Although they are called immortal cultivators, they only have a few more insignificant spells than ordinary people. No matter if they are in the initial stage of Qi training or in the perfect stage of Qi training, as long as they cannot enter the legendary foundation building realm, even if they practice longevity techniques, they will most likely not live for more than a hundred years and will turn into a handful of yellow earth. Compared with ordinary mortals, they are no different in essence.
However, how difficult is it to become a foundation-building cultivator?
Especially for a casual cultivator like Liu Ke who has no background and no qualifications, the probability of becoming a foundation-building cultivator is lower than the probability of winning the lottery! Looking at the entire Wushufang City, there are countless tens of thousands of Qi training practitioners coming and going, but only two or three of them can finally achieve foundation building.
If he were not careful, Liu Ke would be like the vast majority of casual cultivators, struggling for his entire life, and in the end, with the dream of becoming an immortal, he would unwillingly stop at the late stage of Qi training.
Unfortunately, the accident still happened...
Use your backhand to lock the bolt into the door frame.
Luke closed his eyes, but the darkness in front of him was not as expected! Instead, it reflects a colorful water world full of rare birds and beasts!
In this water world, a stone platform stands high in the center of the lake.
On the stone platform stood a handsome man with eyes closed, wearing a green robe. As Liu Ke's attention swept over him, an illusory information box, like a game interface, suddenly appeared beside him.
[Character name: Dugu Jianxin
Level: Level 3
Reserve Experience: 210
Root: Low-grade spiritual root level 9 (upgrade required: primary points * 900)
Talent: First level 2 Sword Heart (upgrade required: primary points * 200)
Skill: Nameless Sword Technique Level 3 (0/300)
Spell: Primary Sword Skill Level 6 (525/600)
Equipment: Qingfeng Sword (Mortal Weapon/Made of Cold Iron)
Introduction: A swordsman born with a heart for swordsmanship, a swordsman devoted to the Tao! Because of the sword heart in the body, when practicing sword tactics and sword-controlling spells, you will gain more proficiency and more power! You can use points to improve the character's talent and bones. After reaching level 10, the character's talent and bones will undergo a transformation.
How to obtain coupons:
1: Recharge Spirit Stone
2: Recycling of spiritual objects, magic weapons, and spiritual materials]
The gaze continued to move horizontally.
On the side of the information box, there are several options such as [Recharge] [Recycling] [New Character] [Back] [Forging] [Development Rewards], etc.
Click on the recharge interface, 1 low-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for 1 primary point, 1 high-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for 1 high-grade point, 1 top-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for 1 top-grade point, and so on, the highest is fairy point.
Similarly, in the recycling interface, the levels of recycled coupons are differentiated according to the levels of Qi training treasures, foundation building treasures, golden elixir treasures, and Nascent Soul treasures. However, the recycling rate is extremely low. A broken Qi training magic tool that can be sold for a few high-quality spirit stones can only be discounted by 6 primary points in the system's recycling, which is 40% less than reselling it for spirit stones and then exchanging it.
Newly created characters are gray and black, and Dugu Jianxin's level must be raised to level 10 to unlock permission to create new characters.
The most commendable thing is the training reward!
The development rewards are divided into three progress bars.
They are every time the character's level is increased by 10 levels, every time the character's bones undergo a transformation, and every time the character's talents undergo a transformation, Liu Ke will receive a development reward for every achievement of one of them.
In addition to rewards such as cultivation, treasures, and inheritance, the types of rewards can even directly improve the qualifications of spiritual roots and improve a large realm out of thin air!
Not only that, the cultivated characters can also be summoned by Liu Ke to the real world and follow Liu Ke's instructions.
It's a pity that this development game is too krypton gold. Liu Ke sold all the savings accumulated by his predecessor, and worked diligently in the stall for more than a month, and finally he upgraded Dugu Jianxin's spiritual root from grade one to grade nine. The last level to trigger the development reward seems to be within reach, but in fact, the huge difference of nine hundred spirit stones is already a huge sum of money that Liu Ke can hardly save for countless years!
Fortunately, game characters can be summoned.
Relying on Dugu Jianxin's innate swordsmanship, even if it is a newly created character, the fighting skills are exaggerated and jaw-dropping! Even if the initial level is only level 1, just relying on the sword cultivation instinct attached by the previous sword heart, he can beat the immortal cultivators at the third level of Qi training.
Although Ruo is only at level three, with his elementary level nine sword-controlling skills and the unreasonable bonus to the power of sword tactics from Xianji Jianxin, he can even fight against ordinary Qi training monks at level one!
Especially now that Liu Ke gritted his teeth and spent another 100 high-grade spirit stones to upgrade Dugu Jianxin's advanced swordsmanship to level two, the power of Dugu Jianxin's sword techniques has been greatly improved. In the past two days, he even killed a first-order mid-stage monster, making a name for himself in the entire Wizard Market, and greatly reducing the economic pressure on Liu Ke.
Otherwise, relying on Liu Ke's half-baked alchemy skills alone, it would be even more difficult to raise Dugu Jianxin's spiritual root aptitude to the first grade than to ascend to the first grade...
"Anyway, we have finally made it through the most difficult initial stage."
Sigh slightly.
Liu Ke put the three spirit stones he earned from setting up a stall into his arms, and then his mind moved. In a moment, the character with closed eyes in the water world in his mind suddenly opened his eyes, and then suddenly turned into a white light and disappeared on the stone platform in an instant.
At the same time.
In the real world's wizard market, inside a very hidden tree hole.
With a flash of white light, a handsome man in green cloth, carrying a three-foot-long sword on his back, slowly walked out of the tree hole.
********
"This is the ninth-grade spiritual root of Xian Jianxin and his master! Compared with it, my body is simply horrible..."
Feeling the transcendental power contained in this light body.
Although this was not the first time that Liu Ke logged into a game character, he still couldn't help but become addicted to it.
Because there is such a huge difference!
Liu Ke's true form is just an ordinary high-grade spiritual root. According to the system's classification, it is at most the second or third grade of high-grade spiritual roots. Even among high-grade spiritual roots, it is at the bottom.
This is why Liu Ke's predecessor practiced hard for so many years but still stopped at the initial stage of Qi training! If there was no opportunity to play the cultivation game, relying solely on Liu Ke's own qualifications, he might not be able to break through to the late stage of Qi training in his lifetime, let alone the one-in-a-million foundation-building realm.
Let’s look at Dugu Jianxin.
With Liu Ke's continuous recharging, Dugu Jianxin's spiritual roots have reached the ninth level! Only one step away from becoming a top-grade spiritual root, it could become a 'talent' in the eyes of most casual cultivators.
Even though there has not been a real transformation yet, the cultivation efficiency and affinity to spiritual energy displayed by the ninth-grade spiritual root are still more than twice that of Liu Ke's original body!
"If it's just a few thousand 4th grade spirit stones that can raise a person's spirit root from 4th grade to 1st grade, I'm sure countless people would be willing to pay for it."
He looked at Dugu Jianxin's hands with some jealousy.
Compared to game characters who only need to recharge spirit stones to improve their qualifications, the price that practitioners living in the world of immortal cultivation pay if they want to change their fate cannot be measured by simple spirit stones.
What's even more infuriating is that the level-up of game characters does not entirely rely on spiritual root cultivation. In other words, compared to the real cultivators who want to increase their power, besides swallowing spiritual materials and treasures, they can only meditate and practice honestly. Game characters can also gain experience by killing enemies, thereby unreasonably improving their levels.
Dugu Jianxin was born just over a month ago, but he was able to upgrade his level to level three, because the experience points gained by the game character from killing enemies were too much! According to Liu Ke's estimation, every time Dugu Jianxin killed an opponent of the same level, the experience points he gained converted into magic points were much more than Liu Ke's hard training!
If he killed an enemy above his level, such as a wild boar monster in the first stage, the experience points he gained would be comparable to Liu Kesan's hard training! Liu Ke was so shocked that he began to doubt his life.
Of course, this does not mean that spiritual roots are meaningless to game characters. In fact, even game characters are subject to the restrictions of spiritual roots. For example, a ninth-level best-grade spiritual root can only increase the level of a game character to ninth level at most, and an eighth-level best-grade spiritual root can only increase the level of a game character to eighth level.
In addition, for every level higher than the level of the game character, the game character can gain an additional 10% experience bonus when gaining experience. This is why Liu Ke prioritizes improving the level of the game character's spiritual roots rather than the talent level.
The current level of the game character is level three, but the spiritual root level is level nine.
A full level above level 6! This means that the game character can gain an additional 60% experience! The upgrade speed of game characters can be shortened by more than half.
"The reserve experience is already as high as 210 points. I only need 9 more experience points to reach level 4."
