[Genius: Cultivation Progress +200%]
Lin Shen smiled as he looked at the new talent.
After repeatedly refreshing the talent for more than half a month, he finally obtained another good one!
Compared to the previous Overflowing Talent, the effect of Genius was simply too powerful. It was four times more powerful than the former!
Moreover, this wasn’t a talent like the Pure Yang Body, which only worked on Yang attribute cultivation techniques, or a talent like Extreme Intelligence Will Hurt, which had huge side effects.
Be it spells, cultivation techniques, or divine powers, it was effective to them all without any side effects. It was probably the rarest and strongest talent among all cultivation-type talents!
Lin Shen nodded in satisfaction. This was going to be his second talent.
Ever since G.o.d’s Jealousy was gone, he couldn’t increase his cultivation speed when cultivating. Fortunately, he had been condensing spirit meridians recently, so the impact wasn’t huge.
Initially, he was still thinking about what to do when he cultivated techniques in the future. Now, he had obtained Genius, which solved the problem.
A 200% increase in cultivation speed was enough for his efficiency to far exceed that of ordinary cultivators!
“It would be even better if I could obtain a good spirit body talent and combine it with Genius!”
After that, Lin Shen looked at the other talent that had just appeared with a strange expression.
[Lone Star: Combat power +30%, Luck -50%. The probability of family and friends encountering death and disaster increases greatly. The closer the relationship, the greater the increase.]
To be honest, an increase of 30% in combat strength was considered a very powerful talent effect.
When Lin Shen first saw this, he was quite excited.
However, the subsequent description of the effect dissuaded him.
As if having his luck decreased by 50% wasn’t enough, the probability of death and disaster for his family and friends would increase greatly.
Using the lives of his friends and family to exchange for power?
Lin Shen smiled bitterly.
Forget about such a talent.
Although he didn’t have any relatives, he still had a few friends. Moreover, he might have to find a master in the future. With this talent, if anything happened to his master, it would be too big a loss!
“I’ll keep refreshing it!”
Lin Shen had planned to find a spirit body type talent, so he didn’t hesitate for long and quickly made a decision.
He closed the interface and was about to get up when he heard a knock on the door.
“Junior Brother Lin, we’re almost at Dragonside City.”
It was Shen Zening’s voice.
Lin Shen pushed open the door and walked out.
It had been a few days since they last met. The aura around Shen Zening became more and more concentrated, and there was a surging spiritual sensation from the inside out.
Lin Shen sized him up and smiled.
“You seem to have gained a lot during this period of time. Congratulations!”
“Thank you.” Shen Zening smiled brightly.
Thanks to the three drops of Mystic Essence Liquid, he had successfully condensed his 27th spirit meridian.
Even if he couldn’t improve any further, he would at least be able to forge a third-grade spirit meridian. That would ensure a bright future in Nine Suns Sect.
Of course, his goal was far more than that.
A second-grade spirit meridian was his goal.
“Let’s go up. Senior Brother Qu is already waiting for us on the deck.”
Lin Shen nodded and walked side by side with Shen Zening to the deck.
At the edge of the ship, Qu Ke was looking into the distance.
At the end of the horizon, the huge outline of Dragonside City was already in sight.
With the speed of the Dragon Fang Flying Ship, they would probably arrive in 15 minutes at most.
Upon hearing their voices, Qu Ke turned around and greeted them with a smile. Then,he asked,
“What are your plans after returning to Dragonside City?”
Shen Zening thought for a moment and said, “Before leaving Dragonside City, I heard that the sect intends to issue merit missions to summon disciples who have condensed spirit meridians to the spirit cave to partic.i.p.ate in the battle. The reward is Cast Spirit Pills. Is that true?”
“I’ve heard of this too. It should be true!” Qu Ke nodded.
“If that’s the case, I’ll go to the spirit cave,” Shen Zening said without hesitation.
Although he was Si Yuanpei’s disciple, there were only a finite number of Cast Spirit Pills that his master could give him. He still needed to obtain most of them himself.
And he needed a lot of Cast Spirit Pills. It would take him forever to collect enough if he just relied on the ordinary merit missions in the sect.
Therefore, he could only focus on the special mission.
Although it was dangerous to enter the spirit cave and fight the Blood Sea Sect, the rewards would definitely be generous.
If everything went smoothly, he should be able to forge a second-grade spirit meridian in at most two to three years—the prerequisite was that he could reach the limit of 36 spirit meridians!
Qu Ke was in a similar situation. He smiled and said, “That’s my plan too. We can travel together!”
Of course, Shen Zening wouldn’t refuse. He immediately agreed.
The two of them then looked at Lin Shen.
“Junior Brother Lin, what are your plans?”
Lin Shen smiled and said, “I haven’t thought about it yet. I’m going back to the East District first.”
This trip to Xuandu took nearly three months. He didn’t know how Ai was doing, so he wanted to go back to the East District to take a look.
After all, once he reported his advancement to a cultivator master, he would probably not be able to leave for a long time.
While he still had time, he would settle the matter at hand first.
Hearing Lin Shen’s words, Qu Ke and Shen Zening nodded and didn’t say anything.
Lin Shen was much stronger than them. This entire time, the two of them had never hoped to rope Lin Shen in.
In fact, after the Xuandu Meeting, Qu Ke and Shen Zening vaguely felt that something had changed in Lin Shen, but they couldn’t explain it. They felt that Lin Shen was becoming more and more unfathomable..
