Chapter 41: Transformed into original form.
Chapter 41
When the system panel appeared before his eyes, Bu Xingjin immediately turned his gaze to the cultivation progress bar next to the image.
Currently, with rare spiritual herbs, he could increase his cultivation by 0.1 points per second. With common spiritual herbs, he could gain 0.05 points per second. Based on this, his cultivation would increase by 12,960 points in a single day.
His current level is 34, and the cultivation required to upgrade to level 35 is 48,000 points. It will take some time to reach the required cultivation point.
Before entering the Tomb of the Immortals, he had only advanced one level. It had been less than a day since then, and his cultivation had only increased by about 8,000, bringing the cultivation required for another promotion to about 40,000.
Bu Xingjin looked up at the countdown above. There was still one hour left before the next wave of monsters arrived. This amount of time was definitely not enough to upgrade.
He had to think of a way. Even if he couldn't level up immediately, it would be best to speed things up a bit. He didn't know how many levels of the monster assessment were left, or what the next level would be after he passed this one. Regardless, no matter how he looked at it, it was definitely related to combat. He had to get what he needed as soon as possible, just in case.
Seeing Bu Xingjin lying on the ground, seemingly unable to stand up, Qing Yan slowly walked over, bent down, stretched out his right hand, and stared at Bu Xingjin expressionlessly.
Those who knew him thought that he was kind enough to come over and pull him up from the platform, while those who didn't thought that he was beaten down by Qing Yan and was now coming over to pull him up and beat him up again.
Bu Xingjin stood up with the help of Qing Yan. He was a little exhausted, but he felt much better after resting for a while. He was still lying there simply because he couldn't upgrade quickly.
Looking at Bu Xingjin's worried expression, Qing Yan mistakenly thought he was worried about the impending horde of demonic beasts. So, he softly consoled him, "In the next battle, I will still keep three demonic beasts for you. Once you can defeat them with ease, I can gradually increase the number of demonic beasts."
Bu Xingjin was deeply moved. The originally peaceful assessment in the Tomb of the Immortals was turned by Qing Yan into a feast for him to practice his combat skills.
Since that’s the case, he can’t let Qing Yan down.
"No need to help me. I'll give it a try. If I'm truly unable to cope, I'll come back and ask for your help."
Qing Yan's method was undoubtedly the best and, for him personally, the safest. However, this approach undoubtedly left him with a lack of combat experience. He needed to experience life and death in order to sharpen his will and truly enhance his combat effectiveness.
"Yes, Bu Xingjin is right, that's how it should be."
Before Qing Yan could speak, the little turtle had already happily agreed. If Bu Xingjin was protected too well like Qing Yan did, how could he grow?
"It's all up to you," Qing Yan agreed to Bu Xingjin's suggestion. "First, take good care of your breathing and wait for the next wave of monsters to arrive before you show your skills. We still have an hour before the monsters arrive."
"Okay." Bu Xingjin smiled and nodded in agreement.
After drinking that drop of spiritual essence, the spiritual energy consumed in the body has been almost perfectly replenished. Now he just needs to rest quietly to restore his strength.
Bu Xingjin sat down cross-legged and began to practice. After several weeks of careful practice, he finally adjusted his condition to the best state.
He slowly stood up and looked upwards. Before he knew it, a quarter of an hour had passed.
Qing Yan was cultivating with his eyes closed, while the little turtle was deep in sleep. Bu Xingjin didn't want to disturb their practice, so he sat cross-legged again, pondering the question that had just been interrupted: how to quickly improve his cultivation so that he could quickly level up.
Bu Xingjin opened his system backpack and carefully examined it. Inside, he found some useful items, such as Earth Essence and Spiritual Essence. However, he discovered that the Earth Essence needed to be transformed into its original form before it could be used. As for the Spiritual Essence, although he had already consumed a drop, it showed no sign of any increase in his cultivation. Clearly, only after transforming into its original form could it effectively increase his cultivation.
In the dark environment of the Immortal Tomb, the sunlight could not penetrate in. Therefore, Bu Xingjin guessed that the only coping strategy was for him to transform into his original form and then use the nourishment of the spiritual soil to improve his cultivation.
The top-level spiritual soil bonus brought by the earth essence can slightly increase the cultivation level. As for the spiritual marrow, one drop can only increase 1,000 cultivation levels, which is very worthwhile for him in the early stage, but now it takes ten drops to increase 10,000 cultivation levels, and 40 drops are needed for 40,000 cultivation levels. The spiritual marrow has many uses, and it is not cost-effective to use it here to increase cultivation levels.
After careful consideration, Bu Xingjin placed his hopes on the added benefits of top-tier spiritual soil. While this might only be a drop in the bucket for him at the moment, a trickle of water could eventually become a river, and this little bit of help was better than nothing at all.
However, as Bu Xingjin gazed at the empty platform, doubts arose within him. Although he no longer relied on the soil to sustain his original form, if the soil were gone, would the system detect and transform the earth essence in the air into top-level spiritual soil as a bonus?
Anyway, let's give it a try first.
Bu Xingjin immediately adjusted to his original form, then took out the earth spirit from the system's backpack, placed it on the platform, and then the roots wrapped around it like silk threads.
After completing all the operations, Bu Xingjin opened the system panel again and carefully checked whether there was any relevant information about the spiritual soil bonus.
Bu Xingjin prayed silently in his heart, he must approve it. The bonus of top-level spiritual soil is indispensable. After praying, he slowly raised his head, his eyes finally fixed on the top.
Special bonus for 10 days.
What's the meaning?
Bu Xingjin carefully examined the line of words again. The system did not show the bonus effect of top-level spiritual soil as he expected. However, this was not entirely useless. Hidden in that line of words was a piece of information that had never appeared before.
After careful consideration, Bu Xingjin understood the meaning of this line of words.
It is actually ten thousand times better than the top-level spiritual soil bonus.
Although time was compressed, the original 20 experience points per second brought by the top-level spiritual soil was directly increased by thousands of times to 20 cultivation points per second.
Bu Xingjin silently calculated that the cultivation level he needed to upgrade was less than 40,000, and it would only take half an hour to fill it up and then upgrade.
Bu Xingjin wondered why, although both had roots wrapped around the earth spirit, the difference between the two was so huge, only one was rooted in the earth while the other was suspended in the air?
No, there were other differences. Bu Xingjin suddenly realized that his cultivation realm was different from before. He had once been just an ordinary weed, but now he had ascended to the level of a rare spiritual herb at the Golden Core stage, and his grade had also been elevated from inferior to ordinary. These factors combined to lead to his current extraordinary achievements.
Bu Xingjin was ecstatic. He had originally hoped the bonus of top-tier spiritual soil would accelerate his cultivation, but now he discovered that he could upgrade in just half an hour. This sudden surprise made him feel excited, as if he had seen a ray of hope after a dark period.
Bu Xingjin stayed on the earth spirit happily without moving.
In just half an hour, he could advance to another level. He hoped the system's upgrade reward would give him a sharp weapon first.
The time of doing nothing felt quite long. Bu Xingjin stared at the progress bar of his cultivation, only to feel that the speed of his cultivation was increasing very slowly, like a snail.
He realized that it seemed like several hours and a half had passed, but in reality the cultivation progress bar had only extended a short distance.
In order to kill time, Bu Xingjin couldn't help but turn his attention to other platforms.
Unlike their "quick" methods of dealing with monsters, Qing Yan displayed a unique skill within the Tomb of the Loose Immortals. Although Bu Xingjin was slowing them down from behind, Qing Yan still managed to kill the monsters instantly without hesitation, significantly increasing the time it took them to kill them.
Therefore, to this day, people on platforms in all directions are still fighting fiercely with the monsters.
Bu Xingjin observed the scene in front of him intently. Through the sudden appearance of the two-headed dog monster, he could roughly infer that the highest cultivators on each platform had only reached the Nascent Soul stage, and the number of people in the Golden Core stage was relatively small.
After careful observation, Bu Xingjin discovered that among the four platforms, including those in front, behind, left, and right, only one platform had a two-headed dog monster without conspicuous red hair on its head. This was exactly the same two-headed dog monster he had killed before, both in the Jindan stage.
If things go as expected, Bu Xingjin looked at the young man with a broken hand struggling to deal with the two-headed dog, and he believed that this platform would ultimately resolve the battle.
After observing for a while, Bu Xingjin's previous concerns were resolved. After the monsters appeared and the platforms expanded, the distance between the two platforms became not far. Therefore, Bu Xingjin had previously wondered whether the cultivators on these platforms could take advantage of this to achieve cross-platform conversion.
The conclusion is no.
Bu Xingjin watched helplessly as a man on the right platform leaped to another platform to avoid the two-headed dog's attack. He couldn't help but marvel at the man's wit and courage. However, Bu Xingjin soon discovered that just as the man's body left the platform, fate caught him off guard and he fell directly back down.
It seems that you have to be careful in the next battle. When jumping in the air, be careful not to go out of the platform range, otherwise it will be judged as being out of the platform and it will be considered a failure.
Bu Xingjin watched others' fierce battle for a while, then paid attention to the cultivation progress bar for a while. Finally, after the people on the platform in front defeated the monster, the system panel showed that the cultivation progress bar was full.
Bu Xingjin couldn't wait to click on upgrade.
34→35.
Golden spots of light appeared in the air in an instant as usual, but this time, they did not float towards Qing Yan, but instead poured into Bu Xingjin's body.
Bu Xingjin looked at Qing Yan with a little surprise and found that he didn't seem to notice his actions and was still concentrating on practicing.
Perhaps the miraculous effect of the holy medicine was too astonishing, and Qing Yan no longer needed the special spiritual energy he needed to upgrade. Bu Xingjin hadn't noticed it before, but thinking carefully, it seemed that since Qing Yan transformed into a human form, the golden light spots from each upgrade had not drifted towards Qing Yan, but he absorbed them all by himself.
This was undoubtedly the best sign, indicating that Qing Yan had fully recovered his former strength. No wonder he was so powerful now. Bu Xingjin couldn't help but recall the astonishing moment when Qing Yan instantly killed the monster. He had suspected before that the little tree, clearly on the verge of death, could be reborn. It must not be an ordinary grass like him. The little tree must have had a more extraordinary identity in the past.
