Chapter 5
Everyone present was filled with emotion.
How many heavenly-level skills are needed?
If someone else had said this, the higher-ups of the Wenxin Sect would definitely not have believed it. Are you kidding? Does this guy think that heaven-level skills are easy to come by? How many more do you need? He has the guts to take out one and take a look.
But it happened that the one who said this was the magical melon-eating system. The credibility of this sentence is inexplicably higher.
So the question is, does it really have heavenly-level skills?
-
Compared to the heavenly-level skills, the head master was more deeply touched by what the melon-eating system said.
It says, [Are spiritual roots important? important. But if you say it is particularly important, that’s not the case. 】
"Theory of Talent" is currently the most mainstream argument in the world of cultivation.
Many people believe that how far a monk can go in the future is determined from the beginning. Three spiritual roots, four spiritual roots, and even five spiritual roots all fall into the category of waste spiritual roots.
They are not taken seriously, and throughout their entire lives, they may only be able to be an inner disciple at best. As for becoming a personal disciple or a closed disciple, that is absolutely impossible. Wanting to be an elder's closed disciple is worse than daydreaming.
But the melon-eating system said that among the three powerful beings who ascended, two of them had useless spiritual roots!
This fact was beyond his expectation.
A thousand years ago, the world of cultivation experienced a great catastrophe. After that turmoil, countless treasures of the world of cultivation were lost, including a large part of the heavenly-level skills and records of major events over the years.
In other words, the cultivators of today know nothing about the world of cultivation a thousand years ago. They don't know what the world of cultivation was like at that time, whether the spiritual energy was sufficient, or how many talented cultivators there were. Naturally, it is impossible for them to know that there were two powerful men with useless spiritual roots who ascended to heaven.
Ning Xu and Chigua System's words can be said to have opened the door to a new world for him.
The head master was deeply touched here, and the sect elder beside him had already fallen into enlightenment.
In her mind, she kept repeating the words of the melon-eating system - [Character comes second, luck comes third, and talent comes fourth. 】
It believes that among character, luck and talent, luck and talent are relatively inferior.
She has ice spiritual roots, and is one of those cultivators with extremely outstanding talents. Her luck is not bad either, and she can always find all kinds of rare treasures.
However, her cultivation has not improved at all for nearly three hundred years.
During these three hundred years, she kept going in and out of various secret realms to look for opportunities, but unfortunately, after three hundred years, her cultivation had not improved at all. She gained nothing except increased irritability and anxiety. The more anxious she became, the more problems her cultivation encountered.
At present, not only has her cultivation not improved at all, but it has even shown a tendency to regress.
The words from the melon-eating system can be said to have cleared the fog in her heart.
The reason why her cultivation no longer improved was not because she had a bad talent or bad luck, but because her state of mind had changed.
She has always taken talent and luck as her criteria, but she didn't know that she was just a mediocre person.
She thought she was a genius and that talent was of paramount importance. In fact, maintaining peace of mind is the most important thing. The melon-eating system is right. Only by having a good attitude can you go long and far on the path of cultivation.
Those with a bad mentality will sooner or later slowly get lost on this road. But she lost because she was not calm enough.
The unintentional guidance from the melon-eating system loosened the bottleneck that had held her back for many years.
She felt a stir in her heart, knowing that this was a good time to break through. After saying "I'll go back and break through first", she flew away on her sword.
As for the karma she owed, she naturally kept it in mind. After she broke through, she would come back to repay it.
-
Ning Xu didn't know yet that the short conversation she had just had with the melon-eating system had played a significant role, and even allowed an elder to break through directly.
Seeing that it wasn't long until dawn, she simply started meditating again. There is no way, her spiritual energy has been consumed a lot. Don’t ask, the answer is that it is totally not enough! When she opened her eyes again, it was still dark. But at this point, she had to go to the sect's square for morning classes.
Thanks to a kind senior sister who led the way, she arrived at the square smoothly today as well.
Not long after arriving at the square, Ning Xu felt a little hungry.
It seems that the effect of the fasting pill I took yesterday has worn off.
Thinking of this, she took out another fasting pill from her storage bag. After throwing the Bigu Pill into his mouth, Ning Shu commented, "This thing is really not tasty. It has no taste at all."
The melon-eating system said helplessly, [The fasting pills in this small world are like this, but you can ask the pill master to improve it and change it to the flavor you like. Or, you can make your own delicious meal. 】
Ning Xu refused without a second thought, "It's too troublesome to make it myself. I'd rather eat the finished product."
The melon-eating system said, "Then I suggest you make friends with Food Cultivator. 】
Ning Xu yawned lazily and asked casually, "Are there any food cultivators in the sect?"
[Yes, of course not.] The ones standing to your southwest are all food cultivators. 】
Ning Shu became more interested. "So how is their cooking skill?"
[Not very good.] 】
Ning Xu's interest came quickly and went away even faster.
Food practitioners who were evaluated as having poor cooking skills: …
Hey, hey, hey, is it really okay to say this in front of them?
Of course, they also knew that Ning Xu probably didn't know that her conversation with the melon-eating system would be heard by others.
If she had known, she would never have been so reckless.
After the melon-eating system finished its sharp comments, it followed up with another sentence, "But this is also normal. After all, they have just started and have not yet begun to systematically learn the cooking technique. I think there are several potential stocks among these people. I suggest you make friends with them first. Who knows, in the near future, you may be able to taste all kinds of delicacies from the world of cultivation. 】
Ning Xu suddenly became excited. The delicacies in the world of cultivation should be very different from the delicacies in the previous world, right? "Okay, I'll get to know them later."
Ning Shu didn't take this remark to heart after he finished speaking, but the food cultivators began to scratch their heads anxiously.
You go on.
Who is the potential stock?
There are dozens of them here.
Which specific potential stocks are you referring to?
Unfortunately, there was no further news about the melon-eating system, which made that group of people itchy and they wished to know the answer directly.
Ning Xu thought that her conversation with the melon-eating system should have come to an end, but unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, the melon-eating system continued, "Do you see the male cultivator with a high ponytail on your left? 】
Ning Xu looked to the left and said casually, "There are many people with high ponytails. Which one are you referring to?" There were so many people with high ponytails here. How could she know which one the melon-eating system was talking about?
The melon-eating system clicked its tongue twice, [Hey, that's the one with the saddest face. 】
Fellow disciples: ...
Ah this ah this.
Who is it that is so unlucky? You look so miserable, brother, please take care of yourself. Don't be too upset.
It would have been fine if the melon-eating system hadn't been mentioned, but once it was mentioned, Ning Xu really locked onto one person directly.
"Are you referring to the male cultivator with three white eyes, arms folded across his chest, and wearing a black and white ink-wash gown?"
[Yes, yes, that’s him, a cuckold.] 】
Fellow disciples: Ah?
Green Hat Man: Okay, I know who you are referring to. This directionality is simply too obvious.
The Cuckold had a gloomy look to begin with, and this made him look even gloomier, always looking like a pitiful little guy who was easy to bully.
Ning Xu, "...then tell me more about why you said that about him."
The melon-eating system didn't keep the suspense and said directly, "Of course I say that about him for a reason. Come to think of it, this cuckold man has something to do with you. 】
Ning Xu's curiosity grew stronger. "Oh? Why do you say that?"
[His ex-fiancée hooked up with your ex-fiancé. Look, aren't you two related? They are all complainers! 】
Ning Shu: ...
Whether she blames others or not, she still doesn't have much sense of substitution.
Ex-fiancé and stuff... She didn't recall all the memories related to that person. Although she was also cheated on, she didn't feel the slightest bit of resentment or sadness.
However, she didn't need to feel unwilling or sad at all. After all, Xu Shixing was labeled as a "useless" cultivator by the system.
Since the melon-eating system dares to stamp it like this, it means that he will never achieve anything in his life.
If that's the case, then why should she get angry with a man who is destined to be a failure?
There is no need at all!
The melon-eating system began to make promises, [But don't take it too seriously, the resentment is a thing of the past, and from now on, you will be out of his reach. . 】
Ning Xu: ... "I didn't care in the first place."
The melon-eating system chuckled twice and said, "According to the general routine, after the two of you were betrayed by those two scumbags, you should form an alliance and retaliate against them together. In many similar stories, the resentful people in your position will develop feelings for each other due to long-term cooperation, and finally slap the scum in the face, cultivate and progress together, and achieve considerable success. 】
Ning Xu nodded seriously, "That's true. But you also said that this is the general routine."
[Yes, it would be impossible if it were you and him.] 】
Ning Xu looked like he wanted to know the details.
The melon-eating system clicked its tongue twice and said in a pointing tone, "He, that's not quite what you meant." 】
[Do you understand?] In fact, it’s not just a little bit off, but a few billion bits off. 】
[In short, he is not worthy of you. You two can't be a couple. Because, it seems like there is no sense of couple at all! 】
Ningxu, ...
"There's no need to be so blunt."
Although she didn't think she would have any story with the cuckold, it was still embarrassing to hear the melon-eating system say so. It is better to keep a low profile as a monk.
As for the Cuckold Hero who had been listening on the side, he said that it really hurts his heart, like a branding iron.
