"There are other ways for a Spirit to be born!" Little White quickly interjected, trying to distract Lin Yun.
"Are there? What are they?" Lin Yun's eyes lit up, eager to know more.
For him, Spirituality held significant importance.
The information from Little White was incredibly helpful.
Just the phrase "land of faith" gave him a clear direction in his quest for Spirituality, sparing him the confusion of figuring it out alone.
"So people's... thoughts, they resonate with a certain natural rule of the universe. If their ntal Strength is slightly stronger and they dedicate their mind to create sothing in line with these natural rules, then a Spirit can possibly be born…." Little White pondered for a while before saying.
"This is…" Lin Yun fell silent.
To be honest, he didn't quite understand Little White's words.
"Brother, have you ever heard the story of 'Finishing Touch'?" Little White cheerfully asked, noticing Lin Yun's confused expression.
"Finishing Touch?" Lin Yun's heart jolted, a realization forming.
"'Finishing Touch' is a story about soone whose painting was so in line with the natural laws of the universe that all it missed were eyes. As soon as the eyes were filled in, the painting was infused with Spirituality, as if it has co alive," Little White joyfully explained.
"There is another story about a scholarly man whose Calligraphy was so exquisite that each character was worth its weight in gold. One day, a wealthy family invited him to write a character, but he only partially completed it and then stopped.
Later, when he was in a tavern and didn't have money for his drinks, he asked the innkeeper for a piece of paper, grabbed a broom from the kitchen, dipped it in ash, and drew a single stroke on the paper. He then gave the paper to the innkeeper to exchange for money with the wealthy family.
The wealthy family gave the innkeeper one hundred taels of gold for the paper, and the innkeeper was overwheld with joy," Little White eagerly told another story.
Sharing a good story brings joy. Usually, it was just Little White and Little Blue, the only two Spirits who could talk to each other. It got kind of lonely, so having soone who not only communicated with them but also listened to their stories made them ecstatic.
"Are you referring to the scholarly man whose writing can birth Spirits?" Lin Yun asked, astonished.
"Yes, Brother is so clever!" Little White expressed happily.
"Heh heh…"
Lin Yun gave a chuckle, remaining silent. It wasn't his cleverness but the simplicity of the story that led to the realization. If he didn't understand, that would be questionable.
"The Stories you've told are excellent and illustrative, I understand now!" Lin Yun nodded slightly.
Vaguely, he recalled why so people's paintings and writings cost so much, with so even reaching astronomical prices. Could it be that they could birth Spirits?

Could so people sense the existence of Spirits?
It wouldn't be strange if so people could detect Spirits. Little White and Little Blue had told him that if soone could sense the Spirit within the idol, they might disregard them, thereby enabling them to escape from danger.
This revelation revealed two aspects - so people could perceive Spirits, and that they couldn't do so easily. Otherwise, they wouldn't neglect the presence of Little White and Little Blue upon sensing the Spirit inside the idol.
"Not only calligraphy and paintings can birth Spirits, but various forms of handcrafted items can too. The more heart the creator puts into their work, the more likely it will possess Spirituality," Little White said.
"Hmm." Lin Yun nodded.
Lil' White had ntioned this before - a Spirit originates from ntal Energy. If the creator doesn't put their heart into the work and doesn't consu their own energy, how can the work possess Spirituality?
"However, Spirits born this way are very weak. If they don't absorb Spiritual Energy for a long ti, they would disappear. Only a select few can absorb the faint energy in the air and convert it into Spiritual Energy to sustain themselves…" Little White continued.
"Is that so?" Lin Yun thought quietly.
A newly born Spirit was very weak. This was easy to understand after so thought.
However, so Spirits faded away over ti, while so managed to survive.
This made him think about the quality of Spirits.
The Cosmic Trading System stated that a hogrown Spirit incorporated into a device specialized for absorbing and refining Spiritual Energy could improve its efficiency by thirty to fifty percent. Did this an that high-quality Spirits could enhance the efficiency more?
Yes, this was another important piece of information.
"I wonder, if I learn so creative skills from the Cosmic Trading System and create sothing from that, could it birth a Spirit?" Lin Yun wondered suddenly.
If his creations could birth Spirits, that's a huge win.
Especially like the scholarly man from Little White's story, each character he wrote could birth Spirits.
If he wrote a few thousand, or even ten thousand characters a day, that would be recording-breaking.
To his knowledge, an ordinary, unranked Spirit listed in the Cosmic Trading System could fetch between ten to several dozen Spirit Crystals.
If the Spirits birthed from his works could elevate to a level one status, it would be worth more than a hundred Spirit Crystals.
If it elevated to level two, it would be worth over a thousand Spirit Crystals.
That would be an incredible yield.
However, Lin Yun only thought about this without any expectations.
In the story, the scholarly man only wrote half of the character for the wealthy family but didn't complete it. Thus, it was clear that not every character capable of birthing Spirits could be easily written.
Nonetheless, this was, indeed, a potential path.
He has heard that so arts could cultivate morals and character, and even follow so rules and principles of cultivation. He had considered learning an art form but hasn't done it yet.
Now, the function of art seed to exceed his expectations.
Perhaps, he should consider it earlier.
In the civilization Star Blue resided in, Star Blue had searched every inch but only found a few level one Spirits. Nothing beyond that.
On the Cosmic Trading System, there was limited information about Spirits. Little White's thod, although briefly ntioned, was casually passed over.
The implication was that only a select few of the extraordinarily powerful could achieve this, but it wasn't a common feat. This was more than just existing; it was a unique existence in itself.
Yet, on Earth, Spirits born this way were a common occurrence. Not just a couple or a couple of tens, but in vast numbers.
Perhaps Earth's art had its own unique aspects.
