1236: Chapter 1222: Enlightening 1236: Chapter 1222: Enlightening “Lu Ping’an (I) is a pacifist.”
God knows how many tis Lu Ping’an had said that, but it was generally treated as his standing joke… but now, from the investigation into compatibility, it might actually be true.
He had very low compatibility with most battle-professions, even a bunch of negative values, mainly because of “not buying the idea that effort alone could lead to victory (lack of willpower and fighting spirit)” and “preferring to consider avoidance before counterattacking when faced with trouble, and most of the ti, believing that choice mattered more than effort (again showing a lack of fighting spirit)”.
Your physique can be subpar for a battle-profession, but your will and fighting spirit need to be maxed out, yet the biggest drag was his “diligence level”… Lu Ping’an completely disagreed with the notion that practicing seven days a week was normal behavior.
He thought it best to avoid overti and extra practice and just do thorough preparation beforehand.
Those who are overly rational and have “unfirm wills” naturally won’t score high on battle-professions.
“But I…
uh, if there were no courtyard, indeed, I probably wouldn’t get very far with battle-professions.”
The foundation of battle-professions is the combination of internal and external combat skills and Breathing Techniques, which require extensive training and accumulation.
If not for early investnt in cheating, logistics library “point adding”, Lu Ping’an’s sporadic cultivation thod wouldn’t make the cut.
His scores in the Life system were also biased low….
“You lack even the most basic respect for life, you don’t value your own life or that of others, you even have a basic lack of survival desire, you even dislike many wild animals, you lack the patience to coexist with Magic Plants for years or even decades….”
Seeing each and every marker, even Big Cat doubted what he had taught, wondering how this thing had beco a fifth-tier Gardener.
But looked at from another angle, the reason Lu Ping’an beca a main path in “Life” was mostly due to the play of fate…
When he had a “courtyard entity” made of a Quasi-God of Life system, his own compatibility beca less significant.
And the profession he was most adaptable to, even considered his only way out, turned out to be “Craftsman”.
“Although you lack initiative, you have curiosity, which makes you very suitable to be a Craftsman, a branch of the Scholar.”
“You tend to build rather than destroy…”
“Your approach to the Extraordinary is to understand, not to perceive…”
“You have a keen interest and talent for creation, but an extre distaste for an unordered chaotic mixture; you’re not suited for a profession like Gourt that relies on intuition (ssing around); you’re suited for one that builds up bit by bit…”
A series of results showed that Lu Ping’an’s highest compatibility was with the Craftsman at 20, followed by Pure Scholar at 11.
Lu Ping’an did have a Craftsman profession, but only 2-tier…
aside from scrounging up experience, he was too lazy to advance it further, let alone having the ti and energy to work tal.
But that didn’t an he lacked Craftsman-like abilities, quite the contrary, he had many.
His All Things Breathing Skill allowed him to link with Taboo items, to understand and utilize the “abilities” on Taboo items – a capability many Craftsn dream of.
Combined with the library, he was able to enchant near-Pollution weapons, Taboo items…
still a trait of the most high-end Craftsn.
Even his Revive, granting “Life Forms,” also had forms of “Taboo items,” “Tools.”
Bound to the title “Lu Ping’an” were several Taboo items… he was genuinely mass-producing various types of Taboo items.
Looking back, one could see his “compatibility” at work; he was still producing…
“…For , Taboo items, Magic Plants, animals – they’re no different in essence.
In my philosophy, if most people can treat Taboo items as a kind of Goods, then the Craftsn who forge and manufacture Taboo items, aren’t they also a kind of Life system?”
This was clearly Lu Ping’an’s “fallacious doctrine”; any Craftsman or Life system could cite classics and co up with various evidence and theoretical bases to fling in his face.
But Big Cat…
Kerdalais, a Life-system Quasi-God, just smiled.
“Is this your rationale?
At least, is it part of your rationale, a Keystone or a branch?”
The so-called “World’s Reason” of the Gods were the nutrition the world needed, but seen from a different angle, isn’t it the natural rules the world lacked?
Who decreed that there couldn’t be a civilization composed of life forms made of swords?
Who decided that vacuum cleaners and sofas couldn’t give birth to litters?
As long as there’s the World’s Reason, as long as that Your Excellency can infuse their own “Reason” into the world, then anything is possible.
“Zhi Xi, is already a living creature…”
The tal flesh, the composition of the Animated Armor being, a complete Life.
“Little Fla, has always been a liquid spark, a Life Form of energy and Elents…”
“Ah Jiu might not necessarily have a material form, existing between Phantom and reality…”
“Mumu, this Tree-man, is probably the most normal…
but within a Mortal’s understanding, that is actually the most abnormal.”
Lu Ping’an’s eyes flickered with countless fluctuations, in the “Eye of Truth” there was no essential difference in the make-up of all things.
In his view, the material composition of non-living and living things didn’t differ from the start.
If there really was a difference, could it be that they possessed souls and selves?
In fact, most Taboo items not only have a self, but they can also be quite extre.
So, if I grant them souls and selves, am I also creating Life…..
“Life, Craftsman, Scholar….”
The three characters ca together, suggesting that the upward path wasn’t that difficult.
At the level of Lu Ping’an, simply “opening the way” was no longer that important.
When he tried to integrate past paths together, it seed new paths would appear.
To reach fifth-tier, one needed two or three fourth-tier Keystones, for sixth-tier, multiple fifth-tiers were required…
To break through to Rule-level might require all of one’s accumulations as Keystones.
Pondering, Lu Ping’an went straight to the Taboo Library…
“Third-tier Craftsman, fourth-tier Craftsman…
uh, too easy.”
Even with the premise of sufficient Life-points, this Advancent seed too easy.
Lu Ping’an’s “forging craftsmanship” was still nearly non-existent, but another craft, “Enchantnt craftsmanship/Granting pollution/Grant Life”, had grown easily by a large margin.
Lu Ping’an had no thoughts of becoming a professional Craftsman, but now that fourth-tier Craftsn beca materials for his further advancent, becoming a great Craftsman didn’t seem difficult…
“Why not try chanical Spirit Awakening, which is also a way to turn lifeless material into ‘Life’.”
Big Cat had just spoken when Fang Wen got up excitedly on the other side.
“I am a Gardener…”
As soon as Lu Ping’an spoke out, he stunned himself.
It seed he was only ant to reference the chanic Spiritualist’s modules and abilities, and he didn’t need to fully take on the job.
Following the Craftsman’s enhanced path would suffice.
As for the core “Spirit Awakening Skill,” he couldn’t use it, but…..
[Enlightening (World): Touching Stone into Gold, Transform Stone into Human, Grant Wisdom to Mortals….]
This was a new ability on his Life Encyclopedia that Lu Ping’an’s courtyard provided after drawing in “Wisdom” fragnts, a result of that previous fragnt’s effect.
Lu Ping’an hadn’t used it, because his “Magic Pets” didn’t need it, and the consumption of this skill was quite high.
And however you looked at it, this seed like a super advanced version of the soul awakening skill.
“It seems, I could really give it a try…
if it doesn’t work, I still have the Fountain of Wisdom.”
