Chapter 12: Minor Achievent
“Squeak! Squeak~”
On the willow tree by the small path, the sumr cicadas cried out with all their might, one after another.
It was irritating.
Despite the blazing sun overhead, Wang Chen, who was searching in the Spirit Fields, was still in good spirits.
Clearing the Earth Rhinoceros Beetles was actually a very tedious and boring job.
This task required full concentration, cautiousness, ample experience, and exceptional skill.
Search, lock-on, eliminate…
Repeating the process over and over again was a trendous test of Divine Soul, Mana, and willpower.
What kept Wang Chen’s working attitude positive, aside from the benefits brought about by eliminating the Earth Rhinoceros Beetles,
Was undoubtedly the increase in skills and Human Virtue points!
[Geng tal Finger·Experience 1]
[Geng tal Finger (Mastery Level): 198/200]
198 points!
Wang Chen clenched his fist tightly, suppressing the excitent in his heart.
At the sa ti, he resisted the urge to release a Geng tal Finger to gain the last point needed for the upgrade.
Mana was precious and not to be wasted.
He took a deep breath, maintained his focus, and continued to look for the Earth Rhinoceros Beetles hiding in the Spirit Fields.
Now, Wang Chen could resonate more deeply and ticulously with the Spiritual Rice in the Spirit Fields.
This resonance, which was not part of skill capabilities, allowed him to quickly lock onto the target’s location.
And efficiently complete his work.
Moreover, Wang Chen discovered that the longer the resonance with the Spiritual Rice lasted, the more sharp and clear his perception beca.
In such a mystically profound state, another Earth Rhinoceros Beetle was detected by Wang Chen.
This Earth Rhinoceros Beetle was special.
It was not lying on a rice stalk, but rather hidden in the mud layer beneath a stalk of Spiritual Rice.
Quietly lurking.
This was the first ti Wang Chen had found an Earth Rhinoceros Beetle inside the soil.
And this particular one gave him a sense of threat.
A Monsterized Earth Rhino!
Wang Chen’s eyes imdiately lit up.
Without a second thought, he raised his right hand, concentrating ninety percent of his Mana into his fingertip.
He thrust it decisively toward the ground five steps away!
The fierce Geng tal Qi Energy instantaneously pierced the soil, penetrating the lurking Monsterized Earth Rhino.
[Geng tal Finger·Experience 1]
[Human Virtue 1]
[Divine Soul 1]
Hmm?
A series of notifications made Wang Chen pause.
The increase in skill points and Human Virtue points for Geng tal Finger was expected.
But the addition of 1 point to the [Divine Soul] was sothing he hadn’t anticipated at all.
It was a complete and delightful surprise!
Astonished and pleased, Wang Chen speculated that this was likely the result of constantly stimulating his Spiritual Sense and frequently resonating with the Spiritual Rice, which in turn refined his Divine Soul.
Clearly, the Divine Soul, like the Physique, could be improved through training!
His current Divine Soul attribute had reached 3 7 points.
In fact, Wang Chen had always been puzzled.
Why, among his four basic attributes, did the Divine Soul display so uniquely?
Could it be because of the soul transmigration?
He shook his head, not dwelling on the issue.
Because there was sothing more important at hand.
Leveling up!
Wang Chen licked his dry lips and brought up the cultivation panel.
He focused his attention on the skill column and clicked on the plus sign after [Geng tal Finger (Mastery Level): 199/200]!
His Human Virtue points instantly decreased by 1.
[Geng tal Finger (Minor Achievent): 0/300]
Ha ha ha!
Wang Chen wanted to laugh out loud.
This kind of cheat-like improvent was just too exhilarating!
Every spell becos harder to break through at higher levels.
Although Geng tal Finger was a common basic spell, understood by at least nine out of ten Spiritual Plant Farrs,
To advance this spell to the Mastery Level,
There might only be two or three out of ten—restricted by Root Bone and Comprehension!
Wang Chen had poor Root Bone and low Comprehension.
A label of “diocrity” was stuck to his forehead.
In fact, diocrities like him were the main body of disciples in the Outer Sect of the Cloud Sun Sect.
A few with superior Root Bone and outstanding Comprehension were either dead prematurely or
recruited by the Inner Sect and the clan families.
Who would want to toil as a Spiritual Plant Farr?
And like Old Sun, experienced Spiritual Plant Farrs wouldn’t dare use their highly trained Geng tal Finger lightly for fear of injuring their ridians.
If used sparingly, how could one improve further?
Without the Immortal Cultivation panel,
Wang Chen, with his original talent, would have peaked with a Mastery Level Geng tal Finger.
Now he had easily broken through to the Minor Achievent Realm.
It was like defying the heavens and changing fate!
“Wang Chen? Brother Wang Chen!”
The call from behind snapped Wang Chen back to reality.
He turned and waved at a sturdy man standing on the ridge: “Brother Tieniu, I’m fine.”
This man, nad Wan Tieniu, was a farr and neighbor to Lu’s family, cultivating twenty-seven mu of Spirit Fields.
He was also the second custor that Old Sun had brought for Wang Chen.
Wan Tieniu looked up at the scorching sun and called out, “It’s too hot, take a break and have so water first.”
Wan Tieniu had a simple and honest disposition.
Although worried about pests in the fields, he didn’t feel right treating Wang Chen like an ox or horse.
He greatly admired Wang Chen’s thod of pest removal.
Wang Chen thought for a mont and agreed.
He indeed needed to recover his strength and Mana.
After digging up the Monsterized Earth Rhino from the mud layer, Wang Chen went to rest under the shade of trees by the road.
He took out the Spirit Rice he had made the night before from his Storage Bag.
Gulping it down with mountain spring water from his gourd.
The homade rice balls were generously filled, stuffed with plenty of fragrant fried insect at and chopped pickles.
Each bite was greasy, with an endless flavor of salty and savory sweetness.
Because Wang Chen used broad prickly leaves to wrap the rice balls, the grains even carried a hint of herbal fragrance.
Ten tis better than the freebies Old Sun gave!
Watching from the side, Wan Tieniu couldn’t help but swallow his saliva.
“Brother Tieniu, you should try so too.”
Wang Chen generously handed him a rice ball.
“Thank you.”
Wan Tieniu’s face lit up with joy, feeling a strong liking for Wang Chen.
He had known Wang Chen before.
But they didn’t interact much.
Back then, Wang Chen was just seen as a pitiable, honest, and introverted ordinary youth.
Now, Wang Chen truly impressed him!
A Spirit Rice ball quickly shortened the distance between them.
They soon beca very familiar with each other.
“Brother Wang…”
Wan Tieniu stuck out his tongue, rolling the rice stuck to his upper lip into his mouth, smacking his lips before speaking: “If anyone dares to bully you in the future, just ntion my na!”
Wang Chen chuckled and handed over another rice ball: “All right.”
Friends should indeed be plentiful.
Wan Tieniu was tall and strong, with a Cultivation Level of Qi Cultivation Sixth Tier.
Given his age, he had a good chance of breaking through to the higher tiers of Qi Cultivation.
Within a ten-mile radius, Wan Tieniu was considered a notable figure.
Wang Chen knew he was open-hearted and very filial to his mother.
A true man worthy of friendship!
Facing another rice ball from Wang Chen, Wan Tieniu, who hadn’t had his fill, scratched his head awkwardly.
Yet his right hand couldn’t help but accept it.
Dinglingling~
Just at this mont, the clear sound of a bronze bell reached Wang Chen’s ears.
He looked in the direction the sound was coming from instinctively.
In the pathway ahead at the fork in the road, a Traveling rchant with boxes on his back appeared.
