Chapter 5 I, Lin Wen, have never relied on cheats in my life (Please recommend and collect)
"What does this mean?"
Lin Wen thought of a possibility, his heart suddenly started beating wildly, and his scalp went numb. His eyes lightly tapped on the [Spell] column, and this thin column instantly expanded, and countless spells suddenly appeared before his eyes.
Lin Wen glanced around and saw various spells such as [Soul Chasing], [Moon Summoning], [Corpse Transmigration], [Immobilization], [Star Shifting], etc. Most of these spells were gray, or black, or simply had no names, with only the word "incomplete" left.
The further you scroll down, the more spells like this you'll find. When it comes to spells marked with "Soul", they're all black, and more than half of them are incomplete.
When it comes to the "True Immortal" stage, except for the names "Divine Light of Extinction" and "Resurrection from the Dead", the others are all incomplete.
Turning the page further, he saw a line of small characters that were about to disappear. When Lin Wen was about to take a closer look, he was suddenly engulfed in a misty gray fog.
When he came to his senses, Lin Wen returned to the top of the spell column. Below it was a row of spells marked with the Qi training stage. Many of them were white or green.
"What does this mean?"
Lin Wen's heart skipped a beat. "Can I use these white or green Qi Refining spells here? But the spells say how much spiritual energy is required, and I don't have any at all."
The Qi Refining Stage is the initial stage of all immortal cultivation and the first step for practitioners to embark on the path of immortality and challenge the immortals and gods.
The immortal cultivators of this period were only slightly stronger than ordinary mortals, so it was not too surprising that mortals could use the spells of this period.
But the problem is, not only does he have no spiritual energy, there is not a single bit of spiritual energy in this world.
"Then how do I cast it?"
The next moment, Lin Wen gave the answer himself.
"The power of the primordial spirit can replace spiritual energy."
Is this possible?
Lin Wen's mind was moved: "The power of the primordial spirit? Do I have the power of the primordial spirit? I haven't reached the primordial spirit stage yet, right? I haven't cultivated the Nascent Soul yet, and haven't even started the Spiritualization stage..."
"All intelligent life has a primordial spirit. The more resolute the spirit and will, the stronger the primordial spirit."
"Even if you haven't started practicing yet? Your soul hasn't been practicing yet?" Lin Wen continued to ask, but unfortunately there was no answer this time.
Well, the passion for rushing has run out.
Before the outbreak breaks out again, it is difficult to respond except for the answers that are about to come out.
Lin Wen, who had been rushing for a month, was very clear about this.
Then we have to try it first.
Lin Wen thought.
He began to carefully study the spells of the Qi Refining Period and found that behind each named spell there were three small words "can be practiced", but now they were all dim, which obviously meant that it was impossible for him to learn any spell here.
In addition to those three words, there are two small words "Use" behind each green or white spell. When his eyes moved over, his consciousness clearly told him that this spell would consume 15% of his spiritual power.
Is this... a part of my memory that has automatically surfaced?
After thinking for a while, Lin Wen tried to ask again: "How much spiritual power do I have left now?"
55%.
"What is the power of the spirit used for?"
Control, transform and use Reiki.
Lin Wen understood instantly that in the normal world of cultivating immortals, using spiritual energy is much more cost-effective than directly using the soul.
"How can I recover my spirit's power in my current condition?"
"sleep."
Lin Wen choked. He thought he was going to eat some delicacies from land and sea, such as Ganoderma lucidum and spiritual herbs.
In that case, it can be used.
There won't be any long-term side effects that will affect my future path to success.
Lin Wen thought about it in his mind, and carefully looked through the spells he could use, and finally chose [Strength of Nine Oxen and Two Tigers].
A white Qi Refining spell that consumes 15% of the soul's power and gains the strength of nine oxen and two tigers. Calculated in this world's time, it lasts for 16 hours.
use!
Nothing changes.
"Did you use it? Why isn't there even any special effects... Holy shit!"
Lin Wen was originally lying on the ground. When he was trying to stand up, he jumped three meters high, lost his balance in mid-air, and almost fell flat on his face.
Lin Wen looked at his hand in disbelief: "I am so strong!" He clenched his five fingers into a fist, and nine oxen and two tigers seemed to roar in his blood.
Turning to look at the surging river and the dilapidated embankment, a sense of heroism arises spontaneously.
"Hahaha! My fate is in my own hands! I, Lin Wen, have never relied on cheats in my life!"
After saying that, he flew down the embankment, picked up the woven bag full of earth and left.
"Hahaha! Really, light as a feather! I can carry 100 bags!"
However, due to his physical disadvantage, he could only carry one bag. The earth was very heavy, and he couldn't lift it by simply grabbing the woven bag, as it would tear under the weight.
Moreover, although his strength increased significantly, his balance and body coordination deteriorated because he had not adapted to this strength. He often drifted or fell while walking.
Lin Wen was very distressed by this and had to hold a shovel in each hand as a climber's walking stick to maintain balance.
After the initial adaptation, Lin Wen's efficiency increased a hundredfold, and good fortune came to him like a surging river.
Lin Wen had never felt so good before. Every time he blocked a gap, a dark hole, or a rupture, it was like eating a big mouthful of honey. His whole body felt relaxed, and heat radiated from his stomach to every part of his body. It was so comfortable.
At night, when it was dark, Lin Wen could no longer see the road, but he was in high spirits and there was no way he could stop.
Without saying anything, Lin Wen immediately began to search for spells and soon found a suitable one.
【Seeing without eyes】
A green Qi Refining spell that consumes only 10% of one's Spiritual Energy. It allows the eyes to see in darkness and penetrate disguises. It lasts for 16 hours in this world's time.
Lin Wen didn't study it carefully and used it immediately. Sure enough, the world emerged from the darkness, every detail was visible, even clearer than during the day.
Lin Wen laughed loudly and continued to work hard.
It started to rain heavily around 9 o'clock in the evening, but Lin Wen was not afraid at all and worked hard in the rain.
He could now fill underwater holes faster and more accurately than during the day, because [Seeing Without Eyes] provided him with precise vision, which allowed him to avoid the interference of dirty water and floating objects and directly see the specific situation of the underwater holes.
He worked until three in the morning when his strength began to fade and a feeling of fatigue surged from his limbs, but Lin Wen's spirit was still burning like fire, without any sign of fatigue.
During this whole day, he reinforced and repaired a total of 21 meters of embankment, filled 3 ultra-small dark holes, 2 small dark holes, 3 medium-sized dark holes, 2 defects, and 2 small breaches, and earned a total of 24 points of good karma.
Among them, the ultra-small dark holes are simply free gifts. One bag gives you 1 point, which is so cool.
It takes more than ten bags to fill a small dark hole, but only 1-2 points are given. A medium-sized dark hole requires at least thirty bags, and gabions must be placed. Some also require anchor piles, but only 3-4 points are given.
Therefore, ultra-small dark holes are still the most cost-effective, but unfortunately there are not many of them and they are difficult to find.
Even so, today's revenue has exploded.
You know, Lin Wen has been brushing up on the good karma since activating the system, and it has been thirteen days until yesterday. He worked at least 12 hours a day, and only earned a total of 8 points.
I earned 24 points today, which is three times the total of the previous thirteen days.
What a great harvest!
And this cash cow can continue to be used.
Lin Wen was filled with joy, and he continued to work like this until the flood season. When the flood came, he would sacrifice himself for justice and successfully capture the savior and the person who kept his responsibility.
Perfect!
That’s it, my journey to becoming an immortal begins.
Lin Wen found a slightly drier place, lay down there and prepared to rest.
Although I really want to continue to do it, my spirit needs to recover, otherwise I will be out of luck within two days.
He also wanted to see how much of his spirit he could recover after a good night's sleep, as this was related to his future work arrangements.
Lin Wen was full of energy just now, but fell into a deep sleep in an instant.
I slept very well and when I opened my eyes it was already daybreak.
Lin Wen turned over and felt the unspeakable soreness in his limbs, but his mental state was good, and his spirit had recovered from 30% yesterday to 40%.
Lin Wen's heart sank slightly. After such a good sleep, he only recovered 10%. This meant that even if he didn't use [Seeing Without Eyes], he couldn't afford the daily consumption of [Nine Oxen and Two Tigers' Strength]. There must be a gap in between.
After some mental calculation, Lin Wen initially decided to work three days and rest one day. If he could recover to 20% on the rest day, he would work overtime.
We only work during the day, starting at daybreak and ending at nightfall. If we can't make it to 16 hours, we'll work through the night.
[Seeing Without Eyes] Although it is easy to use and cheap, his spiritual power is not enough, so he has to reluctantly give it up.
Looking at the sun, Lin Wen thought, "It's too late today. We have to work through the night. I'll ask them to send some flashlights, preferably miners' hats with lights, and some dry food. Otherwise, we won't survive on an empty stomach."
Lin Wen didn't expect this small gesture to make a certain clerk breathe a sigh of relief. He thought to himself, "I must have been dazzled last night. Who would work on the dike in the middle of the night during a heavy rain without turning on the lights? It's like a monster."
But he turned a blind eye to the fact that more than half of the earth was missing, and he was no longer surprised that Mayor Lin could carry such a large bag of earth at such a fast pace.
At the bragging meeting before going to bed yesterday, someone boasted that he had seen a real master of the Imperial Palace, who could lift a thousand pounds, move like lightning, climb walls and jump three meters, and kill a cow with one punch across a mountain. At that time, more than 50 car bandits came to rob, and he rushed into the enemy camp alone, flying up and down, rushing left and right, and beat more than 50 fully armed men to a pulp.
As the story went on, everyone suddenly believed it, and when they came back the next day, they were no longer surprised.
Many people also feel proud of it, and after a few years they have another source of bragging rights.
Have you ever met our Town Mayor Lin? Back then, he was soaring up and down the levee, charging left and right. He wasn't afraid of 5 million tons of river water rushing towards him. He just dumped 10 million tons of earth and blocked the river from the levee, forcing it to cross. Don't worry about whether it's true or not. I just want to ask you, were you afraid?
