"Wait a minute," Zar forced his System to stop, causing it to sweat even more profusely. "I’d like to spend 80% of my Lifespan on advancing my Spirit Roots."
[8-80%!? Are you sure you wouldn’t want to reconsider your hasty decision, dear Host?? Th-There’s plenty more Character Developnt to be had if you take things nice and slow—]
"No," Zar rejected without pause. "I want 80% gone, and I want it all to be spent on the evolution of my Spirit Roots."
[V...Very well...]
The System released a defeated sigh before doing as it was commanded.
[You invest 10,000 years of Lifespan into comprehending the profundities of your Divine Grade Spirit Roots, but besides slightly higher comprehension, nothing else cos from your hard work...]
[After 50,000 years of searching for the thod that will allow seamless coalescence of your understanding of Cultivation and Sword Aura, you discover sothing that advances your Sword Aura to Level 2!]
[Understanding of the Laws of Heaven and Earth moderately increases!]
[You invest 150,000 years of Lifespan into your Divine Grade Spirit Roots, and finally, you amass enough comprehensions of the Absorption of Heaven and Earth Energy to achieve a breakthrough!]
[Unrivaled Rendering Spirit Roots (Inferior) → (Ordinary)]
[200,000 years... Your understanding moderately increases...]
[250,000 years... Your understanding trendously increases...]
[300,000 years... slightly increases...]
[After 350,000 years of endlessly looking over your research, you ultimately attain what you’ve been seeking!]
[Sword Aura (Lvl 2) → (Lvl 3)]
[Unrivaled Rendering Spirit Roots (Ordinary) → (Better)]
[Your Sword Domain once again has its maximum limits increased by dozens of tis its original size. Moreover, your Sword Aura now has the ability to appear anywhere within your unrestricted Sword Domain, allowing you to strike however and whenever you want!]
[You invest 410,000 years of Lifespan into the comprehension of your incredibly profound Spirit Roots, but you only gain minor understanding...]
[470,000 years... Moderately increases...]
[600,000 years... Massively increases...]
[650,000 years... Your Sword Aura sees huge improvents, advancing from (Lvl 3) to (Lvl 4)!]
[715,000... Slightly increases...]
[750,000... Barely increases...]
[After 800,000 years of burning your eyes in an attempt to discern so higher truth of the Dao of the Sword and the Act of Cultivation between Heaven and Earth, you pull on a strand that unravels everything before you!]
[Unrivaled Rendering Spirit Roots (Better) → (Superior)]
800,000 years in and still not at the peak of the current Spirit Roots!?
The Divine Grade truly was on a whole other level!
But even still, Zar could instinctually tell that just a single one of these minor stage breakthroughs was worth several lower-rsnk Spirit Root Evolutions. It was incomparable—vaster than the difference between Heaven and Earth.
[You spent 1,000,000 years of Lifespan comprehending the Intent of the Sword, the feebleness of the Earth, and the sovereignty of the Heavens. And though you see huge improvents in your understandings of cultivation, you’re still far from reaching the precipice of anything...]
[After 1,100,000 years, still nothing... Your Understanding of Cultivation trendously increases though!]
[1,250,000 years... slightly increases...]
[1,400,000 years... moderately increases...]
[Once you pass the one-and-a-half-million mark, you look back on all the complicated processes, formations, and Laws that you tried comprehending to no avail—only to later realize that the opportunity for a breakthrough had been in the simple all along, not the complicated.]
[After 1,600,000 years, you do it, you breakthrough!]
[Unrivaled Rendering Spirit Roots (Superior) → (Perfect)]
[You have nowhere near enough Lifespan to evolve your Spirit Roots beyond the Divine Rank. Would you still like to continue, dear Host?]
"No... I believe I’m good... Over 70% of my Lifespan has already vanished anyway..."
"In fact," Zar added, "I think I’ll end things here for today. I fear that any more and even the entirety of the Outer, Inner, and Elite Sects won’t have enough Spiritual Energy to give what I require. Furthermore, I have a feeling that I won’t even need to spend huge sums of Lifespan to see absurd improvents in my Cultivation."
He ended up being right, as he quickly ca to figure out that his speed of cultivation was hundreds of tis faster than before. The only sha was the lack of high-quality Spiritual Energy in the atmosphere, which led to his Spirit Roots whining over not being used to their fullest capacity.
But regardless of that inefficiency—which Zar planned to solve with so high-level Spiritual Energy Gathering Arrays—ti ceaselessly pressed on. And so too did his cultivation.
— 9 Odd Years Later —
Zar was rarely called out of his dicine Valley. Except for when Core Elder Ye Xuan wished to ’chat’ over each other’s ongoings in an always more pleasant mood than the last ti, no one bothered disturbing him.
There was the ti the Disciples of his Carefree dicine Valley and his Master’s Azure dicine Valley surprised him with praise and congratulations for his breakthrough into the Core Formation Realm. However, that was a one-off occurrence.
More than those events, the pri reason he was typically requested to leave his seclusion could be traced back to a single woman.
Valley Master Yu.
And this ti, it was concerning what could very well be her last ti visiting her father. Naturally, this was a cannon event, and one that Zar was not allowed to conjure up an excuse for.
So he left his simplistic house abode.
Like usual, there was soone annoyingly familiar nearby.
"Haha, ladies, ladies, there’s enough of to go around~! Fighting is not necessary!"
"ng," Zar muttered despairingly, encountering yet another cannon event.
ng stuck his nose up proudly, his face sowhat more pleasing to look at than before. His presence and aura were also miles superior to what they once were, clearly having experienced so sort of fortuitous event that improved both his strength, appeareant, and talent.
Hovering around him were various female disciples, so prettier than others. But the one thing they had in common was their apparent infatuation for the handso man poised before them with a smug look on his face.
Zar could tell at a glance that this was going nowhere good...
