Chapter 29 - 29: 29: Another Half Year Passed, Steadily Increasing Cultivation 1
During this period, Zhou Sui led an immensely fulfilling life.
Training, dual-cultivating, training, dual-cultivating-his life danced to this two-beat rhythm, scheduling him full to the brim.
However, this was a necessary evil. Being in the world of cultivation, there was little room for much entertainment, as when night fell, productivity dwindled to a halt.
As for his daily training, it seemed rather negligible.
Because for Zhou Sui, each day of strenuous training didn’t arouse any feelings of aversion. He was in fact thoroughly motivated and engrossed, much like a top student immersed in studies.
The appearance of such an occurrence benefited from the power of the Book Worm, which allowed him to clearly witness his daily progress, even hinting at the direction he ought to pursue further.
Therefore, he did not feel the least bit bored with his cultivation, but instead found it to be of immeasurable interest.
Adding to this the perils of the cultivation world, he was filled with determination to constantly improve and become stronger.
If, no matter how much he trained, he was unable to make any progress, then naturally, he would undoubtedly feel discouraged.
Many lower-level cultivators relinquished their cultivation due to a prolonged period of setbacks.
Boom—
That day, after another session of dual-cultivation, Zhou Sui, lounging with his two Dao companions, lazily opened his virtual panel.
[Host: Zhou Sui, Cultivation: Qi Cultivation fourth Layer (Progress 99%),
Lifespan: 19 (120) years]
[Aptitude: Eight Stage Spiritual Root (55%)]
[Swordsmanship: First-grade Superior (35%)]
[Rune: Mid-First-grade (44%)]
[Phantasma Transformation skill: Proficient (25%)]
[Fireball Technique: Proficient (55%), Wind Blade Art: Amateur, Golden Light skill: Amateur, Ice Frost skill: Amateur, Spring Wind Rain skill: Amateur…] [Obsession Gu (First-grade Superior), Dream Soul Gu (First-grade Superior), Wine Bug (Mid-First-grade), Clone Gu (Mid-First-grade), Bookworm (Mid-First-grade)]
In an instant, he found his data panel to be incredibly impressive.
In just a span of half a year, he had acquired dozens of skills. Even though it
was at an amateur level, the sheer quantity came as a considerable astonishment.
Of course, this was all made possible due to the power of the Bookworm. Only after it had devoured a mass of cultivation technique manuals, could he reach the introductory level.
If he wanted to deepen his understanding of these skills, he needed to practice diligently.
However, even though this was the case, it saved him a considerable amount of time. He did not need to spend an extended period understanding the skill—just consuming these books allowed him to instantly learn them.
So during these six months, he had spent a large number of Spirit Stones to purchase a variety of manuals and books.
However, due to the stringent regulations and restrictions on high-level cultivation techniques and skills in this world, having Spirit Stones would not necessarily guarantee access to a large number of manuals.
But even so, the manuals he gained in the past six months allowed the Book Worm to evolve impressively, gaining a massive amount of gray aura and prolonging his comprehension time.
Therefore, the cultivation technique to which Zhou Sui paid the utmost importance – the Phantasma Transformation skill – also reached the proficiency level.
Remember how the former Misty Cloud Trio, despite practicing for twenty years, could only manage to reach intermediate level with this skill? As for reaching the proficient level, it was an impossible task in a lifetime.
But now, in just half a year, he had practiced this skill to proficiency level. If the Demonic Sect learned about this, they’d surely capture Zhou Sui and take him as an apprentice. Such a god-given, highly talented individual was a born successor to the Demonic Path.
Once he reached the proficient level, he discovered the finesse of this skill. It allowed him to manipulate his body’s muscles, bones, etc., and transform into another person’s appearance.
Simultaneously, he could also conceal and modify the aura on his body. Even Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators would be unable to see through his current level of cultivation or track down his location based on the aura.
As long as he was willing, he could effortlessly change into another person, and even those who are in close contact with him would probably fail to detect what was going on.
This was what made the Phantasma Transformation skill exceptional. It was certainly out of the ordinary.
The rapid progress in swordsmanship and runes was, of course, massively due to his two Dao companions.
Even if Zhou Sui did not study these contents in depth, his comprehension of swordsmanship and runes was still improving continuously.
“The power of the Gu worms has also increased.
Zhou Sui narrowed his eyes. For him, the power of the Gu worms was the mainstay. Therefore, increasing the power of Gu worms was his top priority as it was closely related to his cultivation.
If his cultivation level improved, it would also lead to a boost in the power of the Gu worms.
However, no matter how you look at it, after half a year of effort, the five Gu worms he owned had advanced; two reached the first-grade superior realm, and three made it to mid-first-grade realm.
The so-called first-grade superior was equivalent to late Qi Cultivation.
If it managed to reach the second stage, it would be comparable to a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator.
The improvement in the power of the Gu worms would provide significant assistance to the host; they complemented each other.
The cultivation of the Obsession Gu improved rapidly due to the nurturing of love.
As for the Dream Soul Gu, it naturally benefited from Zhou Sui’s naturally superior soul power, allowing it to evolve quickly, outpacing the other Gu worms.
“Husband, what’s up?”
Ji Bingyu, the long-legged matron, lounged alongside Zhou Sui. Seeing a joyful look appear on Zhou Sui’s face, she asked out of curiosity.
“Nothing, I just feel that my cultivation has improved and it seems I am about to advance to the Qi Cultivation fifth Layer soon.”
Zhou Sui replied with a slight smile.
After all, according to the data displayed on the virtual panel, he was merely a step away from the Qi cultivation fifth Layer.
‘■Husband, are you about to advance to the Qi cultivation fifth Layer so soon? Your rate of progress is extremely quick. As expected of our genius husband.” Upon hearing this, Mu Ziyi looked at Zhou Sui with admiration in her eyes. Just a year ago, Zhou Sui was a fledgling cultivator at the first layer of Qi cultivation, but now, in such a short span of time, he quickly advanced towards the Qi cultivation fifth layer.
This rate of progression was incredibly quick.
Perhaps even the cultivation speed of a top-grade Spiritual Root cultivator might not be any better.
“By the way, how is your cultivation of the Phantasma Transformation skill, which I taught you, coming along?”
Zhou Sui asked.
In fact, he taught this handy demonic skill to his wives as well. After all, this would undoubtedly be of great help to them..
