Chapter 245



245 Buy one free one day spirit root

Lu Qing fell into deep thought after he saw the silhouette of the divine deer’s life.

There was a lot of information.

In this world, there were very few more ancient legends that had been passed down. People only knew that before the era of the nine nations, it was the great Zhou Empire. It was a unified Empire, and the nine nations were originally the territory of the great Zhou.

Before the great Zhou Dynasty, people called that era the primordial era. However, as for what exactly happened during the primordial era, there really wasn’t much information about it.

From the images in the message light ball left behind by The Deer God, Lu Qing guessed that the barefooted old man and The Deer God lived in the so-called primordial era. Lu Qing had seen them traveling the land. They had cities and towns, but they looked more like city-states than territories under the rule of a Central Dynasty.

In addition, the murals on the Holy tower of spiritual peak on Yuyan mountain were also evidence. In the mural, the cold-looking man who used the power of thunder and lightning lived in the tribal era. If he and the barefooted old man were from the same era, it should be the primordial era.

In that case, the figure of light was also the organization of the twenty-one people from Wufu. It should be a very important force in the primordial era, right?

Or could it be that it was an Alliance of forces?

What was their relationship with the system?

Based on what he had experienced so far, Lu Qing could only touch and come into contact with two things in his consciousness form. Regardless of whether it was the figure of light or the divine deer-or the barefooted old man-they all originated from the primordial era.

Then, he recalled the strange words that the remnant consciousness of the figure of light had said outside the starry sky.

……

“I knew you didn’t die.”

“You’re right, we’re all wrong.”

“I’ve been hiding outside the starry sky for countless years, but in the end, I couldn’t escape. We’re all dead, but you’re still here. Then let’s see if this world will go on as you wish.”

our era is over, and you have returned. Follow your path.

……

There was also the content of the murals on the Holy tower of spirit peak.

……

Lu Qing started to make a bold guess.

Perhaps, there were many powerful beings in the ancient times. The leader of the Thunderbolt team, the Starlight man, and the barefooted old man were all in this category. They had a common enemy, the gods and devils.

In the picture he had just seen from the ball of light, as well as the mural of the Thunderbolt leader recorded in the Holy tower of spiritual peak, they had all joined forces to fight against the gods.

Did they succeed in the end?

There were two contradictory points. If they had failed, logically speaking, the world should be ruled by gods and devils now? However, such a thing didn’t seem to have happened. In this era, gods and demons had already become unverifiable legends.

Did that mean they had succeeded? But why did the person from Starlight say something like ‘we are all dead, let’s see if the world will go on as you wish’? Even though it was not explicitly said, Lu Qing could vaguely tell that it was hinting that they had failed.

He couldn’t figure it out.

Lu Qing was not an archaeologist. He was only a little curious about the history of the primordial era. He was far from having to figure it out.

However, if this matter was related to the system, he had to figure it out.

Moreover, every time he encountered such a thing, it was a great opportunity for him.

Lu Qing suspected that this system, or perhaps the original owner of this system, might have been one of the 21 people. He might have been on the same level and existed in the same era as the barefooted old man, Starlight master, and the lightning leader. In the process of fighting against the gods and demons, the system or the original owner of the system might have a different idea from others, but they didn’t receive support.

That was why the figure of light had said,’you are right, we are all wrong’.

If that was the case, then their final battle against the gods and demons shouldn’t have been a complete success. There must have been a mistake.

As for why the world was in such a state, where gods and demons were nowhere to be found; Why did the system fall into his hands? Who was the system or the original owner of the system?

There were still a lot of questions, and because there were too few clues, he couldn’t even make a guess.

the more I think about it, the more I feel that the system is a huge trap, ” Lu Qing sighed.

There was nothing to be afraid of, and he had no other choice. Without the system, he would have died long ago. Without him, the Lu family would not be able to rise again.

Let’s just take it one step at a time.

However, if he were to encounter such a thing in the future, Lu Qing felt that he would have to think of ways to get his hands on it.

Regardless of whether it was the figure of light or the divine Deer Forest, every time Lu Qing encountered such a situation, he would always gain a huge benefit.

“It feels like the system is replenishing Yingying’s power. Could it be that the original owner of the system wasn’t one of the twenty-one people, but someone of a higher level? It can collect the power left behind by the twenty-one people of the primordial era after a long time?”

Lu Qing had a new idea.

Lu Qing had obtained a series of star power abilities when he was outside the starry sky. He had also taken them into his own body.

He wondered what he would gain this time.

In fact, he had already heard a series of system notifications before this.

However, he was looking at the slides in the ball of light and had no time to pay attention to it. In any case, the things given by the system would not run away, so it did not matter if he looked at them later.

A voice sounded outside the door.

They were Lu mingchao and Lu Wenen, who had walked a little further away earlier.

The moment the two of them entered, their attention was attracted by the White jade deer statue. They immediately began to analyze what it was.

However, there was no result.

Lu Qing could feel that the most important part of the White jade deer god statue was that it carried the memories left behind by The Deer God and a portion of its power. However, the most precious part of it had already been absorbed by Lu Qing or his system when he touched it.

As for the rest, it didn’t have anything special in itself and could only be used as a decoration. It contained an abundant amount of life force, and if one lived next to it for a long time, it could prolong one’s life.

However, using it as a decoration was a little too wasteful. Lu Qing planned to get his clan members to take the statue back. He would then study it and figure out how to refine it into a magic weapon so that he could use the life energy contained within it.

After studying the White jade deer statue for a while and not finding anything, Wenen and mingchao’s gazes were quickly attracted by the items placed around the secret chamber.

Items like the thousand year Golden Lotus and the divine Tree of destiny were indeed very eye-catching.

As for Lu Qing, he did not care about anything else.

Mingchao would probably take care of these things.

He opened the system panel, ready to take a closer look at what he had just obtained.

……

[ your main body has obtained an additional ability. ]

acquired additional spiritual root: wood spiritual root.

……

Lu Qing was dumbfounded by the first message.

Wasn’t it supposed to be strengthened? Why did I have an extra spirit root? I was a cultivator with double spiritual roots, but I’ve become a cultivator with three spiritual roots?

No, it wasn’t multiple spiritual roots. He himself had wood spiritual roots. He was a cultivator with fire and wood spiritual roots.

Moreover, the system message clearly stated that he had an extra spiritual root.

What did the so-called extra mean? There were additional spirit roots?

He continued to read.

additional spiritual root: obtain an additional set of spiritual root talents. The talents will become an independent set of talents, and the host can freely switch between them.

[ current additional talent: wood spiritual root ]

……

The only other talent is the wood spiritual root? if I switch to this talent mode, wouldn’t I become a contestant with the heaven spiritual root?

Heaven spirit root!

This was one of the top spiritual roots in the cultivation world. Once a person with a heaven spiritual root was born, as long as they did not die prematurely, they would be guaranteed to reach the Golden core stage!

What did he mean by guaranteed? It meant that people with heaven spiritual roots could cultivate casually without being too serious. They could slack off more often and did not need too many resources to cultivate to the Golden core stage, which most people in the cultivation world did not even dare to dream of.

As for those who put in a bit more effort and had a good heart, even if they were not at the nascent Soul Stage, they would still be able to make it through.

In any case, Lu Qing had been in this world for more than 300 years. He had only heard of a few heaven spirit roots, and they were all very old seniors. As for the heaven spirit root, which was younger than him, he had never even heard of it.

A genius of this level was hard to come by in hundreds of years.

Gui Gui, isn’t this too exaggerated?

Lu Qing did not know if what he was thinking was true. However, if it was true, then this was indeed very powerful.

But then he frowned.

The wood heavenly spiritual root Kasaya was not very useful to him. His main cultivation technique had now become the ancient rising star technique, and it was supported by his ‘sacred body of stars’, and the infinite flame technique that he had originally developed was supplemented. Even if he gave him the wood heavenly spirit root, it wouldn’t help him much.

But wouldn’t it be a great waste if he didn’t use it?

Unless he switched to a wood element cultivation technique.

However, what would he focus on in the future? This would be very chaotic.

However, Lu Qing no longer had to worry about this.

The system considerately solved this problem for him.

your main body has obtained a cultivation method: ancient creation book (divine-grade, only for golden core level, higher level content to be unlocked)(this cultivation method is only for wood-type heavenly spiritual roots) ”

[ new system function unlocked ]

fusion: can fuse many cultivation techniques and talents into one. The fused cultivation techniques were only limited to cultivation techniques with the ‘archaic’ prefix that the system recognized. It did not support other cultivation techniques. [ the fusion Talent is only limited to the host and can not be used on others. ]

……

Lu Qing’s two questions had been answered.

It was just a bit of a pity that this ‘fusion’ function could be used on all living things. How awesome would that be?

In the end, he could only use it himself. Sigh, what a pity.

Lu Qing stopped thinking about peach and continued reading.

There was one last reward in the system reward this time.

[ blessing of the divine deer: six-star talent-type exchange item ]

[ select a family member and make him a heaven spiritual root. The selected family members must have double spiritual roots or above and have wood spiritual roots. [ this exchange option is free. ]

Buy one get one free!

Lu Qing did not need to think too much about it since there were restrictions. The exchange option could only be used by Lu Wenen.

Lu Qing smiled when he saw that the young man was still busy searching for the various spoils of war in the secret chamber with Lu mingchao. The young man was quite lucky. He was surpassed by Lu Weiwen a few years ago, but he was not arrogant or impatient. In the future, if he attained the heaven spirit root, he should be able to easily surpass her.

After all, Weiwen’s double spiritual roots and gold virtue spiritual body did have better talent than the average single spiritual root, but how could it be compared to the true heaven spiritual root?

He was not in a hurry to get the free six-star exchange option. Lu Qing scrolled up the information on the system panel. Then, he stretched out his hand and touched the system panel with his consciousness form’s finger. He then clicked on the words ‘immemorial creation book’.

The next moment, a vast amount of knowledge poured into his mind.

Lu Qing immediately felt that he had understood many of the world’s principles.

He had already experienced this process once when he had obtained the ‘ancient rising star technique’.

After the process of injecting this knowledge was over, he felt that he had completely mastered the cultivation method of this divine-grade cultivation method called the ‘primordial Book of Creation’.

After some thought, he decided that he had nothing else to do in the divine Deer Forest and the North barren forest. After the divine Deer Forest surrendered, the North troops would rest for a period of time and there would not be any large scale operations.

Since that was the case, Lu Qing planned to return to Yuyan mountain first and try out the new items he had obtained. He wanted to study the so-called switching of talents and the fusion function and see what they meant.

Lu Qing deactivated the battle mode and immediately teleported back to his lair. His consciousness descended into his physical body.

He opened his eyes and came back to life.

He was not in a hurry to activate the so-called fusion function. He first tried to activate the primordial Book of Creation.

It was extremely uncomfortable, and the circulation was not smooth. If he cultivated at this level, he would not be able to achieve anything even after a hundred years.

Lu Qing did not have any doubts about this.

He did not switch to the mode of the wood heavenly spiritual root. According to his original spiritual root talent, with fire as the main and wood as the auxiliary, it was extremely difficult to practice a divine-grade Supreme skill like the ‘ancient Book of Creation’.

Lu Qing, who had been instilled with knowledge, should have been very familiar with this technique. It was as if he had been cultivating it for many years. However, even so, he could not cultivate this technique with his original talent. The stagnant effect of the cultivation was simply unbearable.

No wonder it was said that only wood heavenly spiritual roots could cultivate it.

Lu Qing found the option to switch between talents in the system interface.

After completing the switch, he instantly felt that something was different in his body.

An abundant amount of life force was emitted from the roots of his body. It was a very unfamiliar feeling. Lu Qing had never experienced this before.

However, Yingying was surprisingly not too bad and did not feel any discomfort.

He began to circulate his cultivation technique.

This time, the circulation of the immemorial creation book was smooth and without any sluggishness. Along with it, the attributes of his spiritual energy also changed slightly as the immemorial creation book circulated.

As long as he practiced for a long time, the power attribute in his body would all be transformed into this wood attribute spirit power.

It was not a good thing.

Before this, when Lu Qing was cultivating the ‘immemorial rising star technique’, he had gradually transformed the fire spiritual power in his body into star spiritual power. If it was converted to wood, wouldn’t he have to turn it back when he went to cultivate the ‘ancient rising star technique’?

It was definitely not reliable. Lu Qing had no way of using the power of these two attributes at the same time. He could not even switch between them temporarily.

If that was all, then this newly acquired innate ability could only be treated as a knowledge reserve.

However, the fusion function provided by the system solved this problem.

Lu Qing did not hesitate and started the fusion.

First, fuse the talent.

One’s innate talent could only be integrated with the same kind. For example, an additional spiritual root could only be integrated with the original spiritual root; If he were to obtain any additional spirit bodies, he would be able to fuse them with the sacred body of stars that he currently possessed.

Lu Qing was rather curious about what would come out of his fire wood spiritual root after it merged with the wood heavenly spiritual root. It can’t be that after the fusion, it’s still inferior to the wood heavenly spiritual root, right? However, as far as he knew, the heaven spiritual root was already the highest talent. It was the purest and strongest spiritual root.

If that was the case, how could he take a step further?

The system quickly gave him the answer.

[fusion complete]

after fusion, spiritual root talent: heaven spiritual root (wood) ”

extra fire spirit root talent. Insufficient strength. Unable to fuse. Exists in an independent form.

[ an independent form of talent can still be used as usual, or it can be used for subsequent fusion. ]

……

Lu Qing felt a little lost.

He had originally thought that he might be able to create a spiritual root talent that was even more impressive than the heaven spiritual root. He did not expect that he would only separate the fire spiritual root into an independent spiritual root talent.

This independent spiritual root talent was equivalent to Lu Qing’s Wood heaven spiritual root talent and the additional fire spiritual root talent. This independent talent could not help him to cultivate faster or better. However, due to its existence, Lu Qing could still use his infinite flame mantra as usual.

After he was done integrating the spiritual roots, Lu Qing activated the integration function again. This time, he was going to integrate the cultivation techniques.

At present, the cultivation techniques he had with the prefix ‘immemorial’ were, of course, the ‘immemorial rising star technique’ and the ‘immemorial Book of Fate’. He also needed to merge these two.

After about half an hour, Lu Qing received a new message from the system.

[ fusion complete ]

the cultivation technique after fusion is: ancient creation star ascending Art ”

……

Why didn’t he just use this naming method?

In the future, if he were to accumulate more cultivation techniques, wouldn’t the name of the cultivation technique be able to make up many words?

Imagining that scene, his liver hurt a little.

Lu Qing stopped thinking about all these random things. Since the cultivation techniques and talents had been integrated, Lu Qing decided to try it out for himself. He wanted to see what kind of magical thing the creation star Ascension Art was after the integration.

He began to circulate his cultivation technique and cultivate.

……

Three days had passed.

It was the same situation as when he had obtained the two ‘immemorial’ cultivation techniques. After the fusion was completed, Lu Qing obtained an effect similar to ‘infusion’. He was able to fully understand the contents of the cultivation technique. It was as if he had been cultivating for hundreds of years. He was very familiar with it.

In his opinion, the new cultivation technique was indeed stronger than the simple ‘ancient rising star technique’. However, it was not too strong. At least, it did not meet Lu Qing’s expectations.

But what was worth rejoicing was that the new cultivation technique after the fusion had fully combined the two main characteristics of the original two cultivation techniques. Without a doubt, this would allow Lu Qing to have more variety of methods.

The rising star Art was mainly used together with the power of the star God and the sacred body of stars, which could produce an extremely strong Starlight attribute energy that could be used against the enemy. This Starlight attribute was very rare in the cultivation world, so naturally, other cultivators lacked a way to resist this energy.

Furthermore, the strength of the Starlight spiritual energy was very high. Lu Qing could use his own Scarlet eyes to cast the Starlight directly by using the technique of casting fire curses. After testing, he found that the power of the Starlight was very strong.

In addition, the rising star incantation itself also had some special curses.

After fusing with the creation book, Lu Qing’s spirit energy now had a strong wood attribute on top of the star power that he had previously used. This wood attribute would also directly affect the curses that Lu Qing cast.

For example,’falling star’ and activating the Dragon Soul.

With a thought, a small dragon was formed from his fingertips and circled around his body.

In the earliest days, the Dragon Soul was colorless. After Lu Qing had cultivated it, it had turned fiery red and was in line with the nature of his own spirit energy.

After all, the Dragon soul’s existence was sustained by the spiritual energy he provided. Naturally, the Dragon Soul would look the same as the spiritual energy provided by the master.

After Lu Qing obtained the ‘ancient rising star technique’, his Dragon Soul turned silver-purple.

But now, the Dragon Soul had turned into a light green color. At the same time, it reflected a silver light. The combination of the two made the image of the little Dragon look very noble.

Lu Qing let the Dragon Soul play by itself and continued to study his current abilities.

After his spirit energy had strong wood and life attributes, Lu Qing also felt that he could use his own spirit energy to cast some healing spells. Although he had never used it before, he could feel that the effect of this treatment would be very good.

The wood heavenly spirit root was not a joke. In The Book of Fate, there were many techniques that used wood spiritual power to produce healing effects.

Moreover, the creation book also contained a special alchemy technique.

Lu Qing had a rough understanding of this alchemy technique. It should be able to produce better medicinal effects than the elixirs produced by ordinary alchemy techniques. The success rate of the pills being formed would also be higher.

Most importantly, Lu Qing realized that he did not have to specially cultivate this alchemy technique. As long as he continued to cultivate the creation rising stars technique, his alchemy level would naturally rise. After all, alchemy was a part of the creation book. The only thing that had improved his alchemy level was the lack of practical experience.

This was an unexpected surprise, but it was still quite a happy thing.

For the next few days, Lu Qing did not continue cultivating. Instead, he stayed in his own training room and began to test out some of the spells in the cultivation techniques that he had fused.

Whenever he had time, he would activate the teleportation and run to the North barren forest. As long as there was nothing to do with his family, he would come back.

It was best to master a new ability as soon as possible.
