Chapter 1133: Unique
“Ding! Obtained a complete blue crystal. After using it, you’ll be able to unlock your potential. Requires 300,000 merit points to use.”
Lu Zhou frowned slightly when he heard the final sentence.
Xiao Yunhe, who was next to Lu Zhou, did not know what Lu Zhou was thinking. He looked in the direction where Mingshi Yin and Little Yuan’er left as he said, “Brother Lu, I’m really envious you have such a capable disciple. I spent ten years looking for three blue crystals, but he only spent half a year to find two. What a rare talent!”
Lu Zhou regained his senses and asked, “Half a year? You think he found the blue crystals in half a year?”
“Could it be that he took three to five years to find the blue crystals?” Xiao Yunhe asked with a smile.
Lu Zhou said, “That wicked disciple of mine found the blue crystals in a month. However, because he’s lazy and wanted to live leisurely, he stalled for half a year. His merits and flaws offset each other. Therefore, I only sent him to clean up the remaining fierce beasts as a punishment.”
Xiao Yunhe. “…”
There was really no way to stay in the capital! It was not easy for him to recover ten Birth Charts, but when he returned, he suffered one critical hit after another. He felt really suffocated!
Lu Zhou glanced at Xiao Yunhe and asked, “Do you have something on your mind?”
“No, no, no.” Xiao Yunhe waved his hand. “Although my Birth Palace has been repaired, I still need to recuperate. I won’t waste Brother Lu’s time; I’ll take my leave now.”
Lu Zhou turned his head and glanced at Xiao Yunhe. “Do you have something on your mind?”
“Alright.” Lu Zhou nodded.
After Xiao Yunhe left, Lu Zhou opened the mission tab. He looked at the mission in confusion.
“The activation of the second avatar requires 300,000 merit points?”
He only had about 440,000 merit points left, and he did not have many trump cards left. If he spent 300,000 merit points, he would only be left with a little more than 100,000 merit points. It was not enough to even synthesize a high-level card.
However, since his cultivation base had improved greatly, there were not many instances where he had to use the item cards. The earlier crisis was mostly resolved by using the Impeccable Card. It was a pity he had used one out of three chances to synthesize the Impeccable Card. Apart from that, he did not use too many Deadly Strike Cards as well.
With all these thoughts in mind, Lu Zhou finally sat cross-legged and muttered under his breath, “Activate.”
The nine blue crystals formed a complete blue crystal that appeared in front of him. The core of the crystal seemed to contain soil that glowed with a bright blue light.
Crack!
The blue crystal shattered, and the soil within the crystal floated in the air like dust. The soil circled Lu Zhou’s body before specks of light landed on his body, melting into his skin.
He felt a sense of restlessness in his Eight Extraordinary Meridians immediately. Heat coursed through the meridians and spread throughout his body. It felt as though tens of thousands of fiery ants were crawling all over his body.
The heat circulated his entire body before it surged toward his Dantian’s sea of Qi.
His Dantian’s sea of Qi was immediately filled to the brim by vitality energy. The wall of the sea of Qi creaked like a dam that was about to burst.
“Supreme mystic power.”
Lu Zhou used the supreme mystic power to calm and stabilize his Dantian’s sea of Qi.
With that, heat continued to surge into his Dantian’s sea of Qi the entire night.
…
The next morning.
Lu Zhou’s Dantian’s sea of Qi had returned to normal.
He stood up, feeling suspicious. ‘It returned to normal just like that?’
He stretched his limbs and body and did a few simple exercises, but he did not find any improvements.
Then, he tried to mobilize the vitality energy in his Dantian’s sea of Qi and found that the stuck feeling that he felt previously had vanished. After the first time his Dantian’s sea of Qi was blocked, he always checked his Dantian’s sea of Qi before he mobilized vitality energy or Primal Qi. This would make him imperceptibly slower, but in a fight between experts, just a millisecond slower could spell death.
“There’s no change in my cultivation… I still have seven Birth Charts,” he murmured to himself.
He opened the system interface again. The second avatar’s mission had disappeared, and 300,000 of his merit points had disappeared as well.
“The second avatar?”
Lu Zhou sat back on the futon before he flicked his sleeve.
Buzz!
A miniature golden Thousand Realms Whirling avatar appeared in front of him. On the lotus seat, seven Birth Charts shone dazzlingly. He had looked at it so many times that it had gotten boring. Now that he looked at it again, there was nothing new.
Lu Zhou flicked his sleeves again and withdrew his avatar.
At this moment, Lu Zhou felt a subtle change in his Dantian’s sea of Qi. He felt a cool energy flowing into his Dantian’s sea of Qi. Although the energy was weak, he could feel it clearly.
Lu Zhou waved his sleeve again. “Avatar.”
Buzz!
A faint blue energy gathered in front of him before it formed a humanoid shape. It was small, very small. He did not intentionally minimize its size; this was its actual size.
“This… This is the second avatar?” Lu Zhou was surprised. He could feel his supreme mystic power being consumed. Nevertheless, the consumption was almost negligible. This was because the avatar was completely bare like a baby’s Basic Taiji avatar.
“Basic Taiji?”
With his current cultivation base and the supreme mystic power, it was not a big problem for him to deal with Eight or Nine Chart cultivators without using item cards. However, who could he fight with the Basic Taiji avatar?! With the supreme mystic power, he could turn his golden avatar and his palm seals blue for a moment. Was this Basic Taiji avatar not a duplicate?
“Ding! The Basic Taiji avatar has been activated. Upgrading to the next level will cost ten years of life.”
Upon seeing this notification, Lu Zhou suddenly felt the system was, intentionally or unintentionally, guiding him to cultivate the blue energy. From the time he obtained the Heavenly Writing from the lottery, forming his avatar, the extraordinary power, the Heavenly Writing power, and the supreme mystic power.
“Is it possible that the supreme mystic power is a special cultivation path?” Lu Zhou wondered out loud. Then, he cursed the system inwardly, “F*ck, others need time to cultivate, but I need to use my life to cultivate!’
However, after thinking about it, was time not equal to life?
“Upgrade,” Lu Zhou muttered.
There were no changes in the blue avatar.
After trying a few times, there were still no changes.
Lu Zhou looked at the fist-sized avatar; it looked pitifully weak.
Lu Zhou mobilized the energy in his Dantian’s sea of Qi just like a normal cultivator would when upgrading their avatars.
Buzz!
The blue avatar finally moved. It began to spin swiftly.
Accordingly, Lu Zhou could feel his lifespan decreasing as well as his vitality energy surged toward the blue energy.
In just a few breaths, the blue avatar absorbed ten years of his life. It grew from the size of a fist to the size of two fists. However, it still looked like a baby.
“Two Transformed Powers?”
“To upgrade to a Two Transformed Power avatar will cost fifty years of your life.”
“Damn it!” Lu Zhou frowned. Then, he continued to upgrade the avatar.
The benefits of meditating on the Heavenly Writing all year round showed themselves at this moment. With enough supreme mystic power, it was easy for the blue avatar to reach saturation.
…
About two hours later.
Three blue lotuses appeared above the blue avatar’s head before disappearing in a flash.
This was the Three Condensing Flowers avatar.
Lu Zhou looked at the system notification again. To upgrade it to a Mighty Four Quadrants avatar would cost him 100 years of life.
“Fortunately, I have enough years…”
He did not care about this small number of years. Moreover, he still had half of the Green Cicada Jade.
“Upgrade.” Lu Zhou raised his hand. The blue avatar hovered above his palm and began to spin again. Just like before, his vitality surged toward the blue avatar.
