Chapter 13: Is this your doing?
Lin Mo was happy for a moment, then his face became confused…
What is this mutated attribute sword spirit root?
The original owner’s memories didn’t mention it either!!!
[Reminder to Host, Mutated Attribute Sword Spirit Root is also a type of Heavenly Spirit Root. Although it has no special buffs for five-element cultivation methods, it does for sword dao cultivation methods.]
This…
He was already a sword cultivator, and now he’s given a sword spirit root. Is this telling him to ascend as a sword immortal?
[Reminder to Host, the chance of extracting a mutated attribute spirit root is one-tenth of that of a single-attribute Heavenly Spirit Root, so Host, sleep when you should, drink when you should, the next life will come quickly!]
……
Heh, the damn system is cursing me to die?
Lin Mo couldn’t be bothered to argue with the system and asked about other important matters.
“System, since I am now a Heavenly Spirit Root, will the regret value spent on forming a Ninth-grade Golden Core be reduced?”
[Yes, currently Host has a thirty percent chance of forming a Ninth-grade Golden Core on your own, and you only need to spend seven thousand regret value to form a Ninth-grade Golden Core.]
Seven thousand isn’t much, especially since he just earned 8800 regret value from that ungrateful Junior Sister.
With a thought, Lin Mo summoned the system to open his personal information panel.
Host: Lin Mo
Bloodline: Human Race
Physique: Sword Heart Clarity
Talent: Sword Spirit Root
Cultivation Level: Late Foundation Establishment
Cultivation Method: Profound-grade High-tier Cultivation Method ‘Spirit Azure Art Level 4’, Profound-grade Mid-tier Cultivation Method ‘Spring Return Art Level 4’, Profound-grade Low-tier Cultivation Method ‘Three Thousand Sword Art Level 5’, Yellow-grade High-tier Cultivation Method ‘Golden Light Shield Level 7’, Yellow-grade Low-tier Cultivation Method ‘On the Ground’.
Abilities: Cooking ‘5.1’, Planting ‘1.3’, Array Formations ‘1.5’, Alchemy ‘1.6’, Chess ‘1.8’…
Regret Value: 3100
His talent is indeed perfect now, but his cultivation methods are nothing to boast about.
Moreover, the Yellow-grade Low-tier cultivation method ‘On the Ground’ is truly an eyesore.
He should just block it.
He could be considered exceptionally talented now.
Cultivation methods below the Earth grade, he can cultivate them himself. Using regret value to improve them would be too extravagant.
Just like this Yellow-grade Mid-tier ‘Golden Light Shield’, it will only take a few days to train it to the tenth level.
[I really didn’t expect the Host to be so stingy. With a system, you still choose to cultivate yourself. For Yellow-grade cultivation methods, 800 regret value for High-grade, 600 for Mid-grade, and 300 for Low-grade can bring them to perfection.]
Lin Mo inwardly scoffed.
I’m happy to do it this way, I’ll do as I please.
Doesn’t cultivating with you cost money? ‘Regret value’. Are hundreds of regret value not regret value anymore?
“By the way, System, where did the spirit roots I drew before go?”
[They are stored in the warehouse.]
“Can I use these spirit roots on other people?”
[Reminder to Host, as long as you have regret value, nothing is impossible.]
[Additionally, to implant spirit roots into others, their true consent is required. If they refuse, it will fail, and the regret value will not be refunded.]
Well, although the system is a bit of a scam.
Its abilities are still quite comprehensive.
With so many spirit roots, it would be a waste not to use them properly.
What’s more, there’s a Fire-attribute Heavenly Spirit Root in the warehouse.
He doesn’t have any particularly good disposal methods for now, so he’ll keep it in the system warehouse.
Two days later, it was the Azure Spirit Sect’s day for new disciples to go out for training.
In these two days, Lin Mo had raised the ‘Three Thousand Sword Art’ to the sixth level.
With his Sword Heart Clarity physique, he was already quick at cultivating sword-based cultivation methods. Now, with the addition of the Sword Spirit Root talent, it was simply like a tiger with wings.
Moreover, although cultivating other cultivation methods was not as rapid as sword-based ones, it was still more than twice as fast.
This is the power of a Heavenly Spirit Root. Both the cultivation speed and the comprehension of cultivation methods are far superior to Dual Spirit Roots.
Of course, there was another problem: Lin Mo couldn’t resist and had gambled during these two days.
He had drawn randomly thirty times in total, and none of them yielded anything useful.
However, in the abilities section, whether it was good luck or not, ‘Musical Instruments’ and ‘Array Formations’ had both been raised to a high level of 7.
Lin Mo didn’t know what level 7 meant.
But according to the original owner’s memories, Lin Mo already had a good talent for cooking, and after more than ten years of practice, his cooking skill had only reached level five.
From this, one could see the extraordinary significance of level seven.
After all, the system itself had said that the maximum level was ten, and the system’s definition of maximum level had likely surpassed the understanding of normal people.
As Lin Mo was the senior disciple leading the group, he had arrived at the Azure Spirit Sect’s plaza early to wait.
Besides him, there were other disciples from the other eleven peaks leading their teams.
Lin Mo recognized all of them; they were all exceptionally talented inner disciples of the Azure Spirit Sect.
“Did you see? Isn’t that Lin Mo, the Senior Disciple of Azure Bamboo Peak? I can’t believe he’s leading the team again this year!”
“Don’t say that. I heard this Senior Disciple is notoriously strict. A while ago, a disciple from their peak made a mistake, and he beat him into severe injuries. Tsk, tsk, tsk, truly ruthless.”
“You all stop talking. What if someone overhears us? That would be bad!”
“What are you afraid of? If they dare to do it, why can’t people talk about it? Besides, Lin Mo is notoriously disliked on Azure Bamboo Peak. If a conflict arises, who will help him? Moreover, he is in the Late Foundation Establishment stage. What am I afraid of from a cultivator who primarily cultivates Water and Wood element cultivation methods?”
The surrounding conversations did not anger Lin Mo. Instead, he calmly sipped his tea.
He naturally recognized the disciple who had been talking about him.
It was Liu Bao, a disciple from Great Stone Peak among the Twelve Peaks. He cultivated Fire-attribute cultivation methods and was considered one of the most outstanding inner disciples in the entire Azure Spirit Sect.
Seeing that Lin Mo showed no reaction, Liu Bao spat on the ground, “I thought you were brave for bullying fellow disciples, but you’re just a coward!”
Lin Mo continued to sip his tea, his expression neither pleased nor displeased.
He understood that the other party was intentionally provoking trouble.
There was a rule in the Azure Spirit Sect strictly prohibiting fighting among fellow disciples.
As the Senior Disciple of Azure Bamboo Peak, he had to set an example. If he violated the rules, the punishment would be even heavier than for ordinary disciples.
Clearly, Liu Bao, as an inner disciple of Great Stone Peak, knew this.
Upon noticing that Lin Mo truly had no intention of clashing with him, Liu Bao found it boring and turned to leave to find his own junior disciples.
The moment he found his junior disciples,
Lin Mo flicked his fingers, and a faint sword qi shot out.
Liu Bao suddenly felt his calves go weak, and he fell face-first to the ground.
The sect plaza was not deserted, and seeing this, many disciples burst into laughter.
“What are you laughing at?”
Liu Bao got up, exuding his aura, his face filled with rage.
The disciples who were mocking him fell silent instantly.
Those who had come to lead teams were all disciples with outstanding abilities from their respective peaks.
They all had the same thought: someone had launched a sneak attack.
How could a Foundation Establishment cultivator stumble?
Liu Bao scanned the crowd with angry eyes, his gaze finally falling on Lin Mo.
“Is this your doing?”
