Chapter 9: Life Vein

-Discovered Life Vein: +3 Potential Points

"Life Vein huh?" William muttered as he placed his hand on the tree. This probably hadn't been noticed before because the Lifeshrooms concealed its aura. Although Lifeshrooms were valuable to William, others probably thought of them as random garbage you could find anywhere.

--UPGRADING TALENTS...PLEASE WAIT

William's hands started heating up without warning. He had felt this before, and was prepared for it this time. The pain became even more intense, and William's skin began cracking. He fell to his knees while moaning in pain, as hot blood burst from the cracked skin. Steam rose from William's body, and his eyes became a deep fiery red.

The agony continued for nearly 15 minutes this time. Once the side effects of his upgrade dissipated, William laid heavily on the ground. He had probably lost a third of his health points from that upgrade.

The feeling continued for a few minutes, before fading rapidly. The unusual glow of the tree dulled, and the previously intense vitality was greatly decreased.

I just upgraded myself and am already at 25 Potential Points, awesome! William was ecstatic. It turns out that becoming a loot goblin was the right path to take. He didn't care about the potential consequences of his actions.

Did he just slaughter a weak beast that only cared for life energy? Maybe. Did he displace dozens of smaller animals by picking hundreds of Lifeshrooms? Perhaps. Did he potentially destroy an entire ecosystem by depriving a large section of the Livingwood Forest of the Life Element? Sorry, couldn't hear you over the sound of Potential Points!

"3 Points to upgrade? A bit stingy but I have enough. Let's continue!" William clapped his hands together, before signaling to the System.

Upgrade my Life Affinity.

--Upgrading--

William clenched his eyes and prepared for the worst. The intense pain he expected was replaced with warmth. His body emitted a slight glow before returning to normal.

William felt an immense increase in power from the consecutive upgrades. He focused a small amount of Life Element mana and cast it on himself, quickly healing his injuries from upgrading his Fire Affinity.

This is barely weaker than Charlotte's Life Element, and she is a late stage Qi Refinement Cultivator! William didn't know how strong his magic was before, but having someone to compare to made him realize his strength was not low at all. If my Fire Element is stronger than this, I should be able to fight most Qi Refinement beasts already!
