My Cultivation System

Chapter 224 - Upgrading Skills

'I will upgrade all my skills first.'

Henrick didn't bother with the old man and looked at the skill upgrade crystals in his inventory.

​​

'Ding, 

          Rank 2 skill upgrade crystal x 5

          Rank 3 skill upgrade crystal x 2

Since he got many upgrade crystals, he decided to upgrade his skills.

'Ding,

          Skills

          Human race:- Endurance (level 2), Camouflage (Level 2), and Comprehension (Level 1).

        Ancient fire demon race:- Ancient fire surge (Level 1), Fire demon stare (Level 1), Fire demon claw (Level 1), and Demon strength (level 2).

'Even after upgrading all my level 1 skills, I can still have one extra crystal.'

Without wasting any time, Henrick started using all the skill upgrade crystals in his hand.

'Ding,

        Skill 'Comprehension' upgraded to level 2.

        Learning speed increased by 70 percent.

'Ding,

        Skill 'Ancient fire surge' upgraded to level 2.

        It can now help rank 2 beasts increase their cultivation. Rank 3 beasts have little effect.

'Ding,

        Skill 'Fire demon claw' upgraded to level 2.

        It can now absorb the energy from the beings killed with the claws and temporarily increase its power.

        Note:- The power is strong enough to kill a single cultivator who is five levels higher than the cultivator.

'Ding,

        Skill 'Fire demon stare' upgraded to level 2.

        It can freeze the opponents with the same cultivation of the user for a minute as for the cultivators with one major realm higher than the user will be frozen for ten seconds. 

        Note:- With each level increment in the opponent's strength, their freezing time will be decreased by one second.

Soon, he got the four system notifications informing him about the upgrade of his four level 1 skills, and it also showed the changes in them.

'With this, all my skills are level 2 now.'

Henrick felt it was like an achievement for him and carefully checked every skill.

'Comprehension speed increased from 50 to 70 percent. Good.'

'Even though there was only a little effect on rank 3 beasts, I can still use it on my two little beasts. Thinking of beasts, I wonder, what it is doing?'

All of a sudden, Henrick remembered his first tamed beast, the baby fire monkey.

However, he was not worried about it as he already said to Nick to take care of it.

He also added, when Nick visits the treasure land, he can bring it with him.

Even though the treasure land and the blazing inferno sect are on the same continent, they were very far. It is dangerous for a rank 3 beast to venture alone because many cultivators may assume it as a wild beast and kill it.

'I hope it will not worry about me and slowly increase its strength.'

Henrick shook his head and felt a little bitter when he thought about the baby fire monkey.

'Fire demon claw and Fire demon stare also became powerful with the upgrade.'

Henrick went back to checking his upgraded skills, and soon, he looked at the two crystals in his hand.

'Now comes the true test for me.'

Looking at the two rank 2 skill upgrade crystals in his hands, Henrick revealed a slight smile because he had to choose two skills that he felt were worth upgrading than other skills.

'Camouflage is a must-have….wait for a second. Since I will not be walking out of the two places anytime soon, why bother upgrading a skill that helps me hide my cultivation and bloodline?'

By mistake, he thought of upgrading the camouflage skills because, in his mind, by default, Camouflage is a skill that should be upgraded.

However, now, the circumstances have changed. He no longer has any use for that camouflage skill. 

'So which skills should I upgrade?'

Soon, he started checking which skill he should upgrade.

"Participant, do you need any help with that?"

Suddenly, he heard the trial master's voice beside his ears which gave him quite a scare.

In the inheritance building, Henrick was not the king; he was just a participant; however, the trial master is the true king.

Whatever Henrick thinks in his head, the trial master will know it.

"Don't get shocked. Today, I am in a good mood, and I will give you a suggestion for free; however, don't expect any free suggestions from me because I am quite stingy."

While Henrick was still in shock, the trial master said to Henrick with a slight smile on his face.

"I will take your suggestion, trial master."

Henrick wanted to hear what the trial master wanted to say, and depending on that, he could use his two rank 2 upgrade skill crystals.

"Level 0 trials didn't have any danger that would kill you; however, from the next trials, you will be visiting other worlds or dangerous places where all types of beings live. So, It is good to camouflage your bloodline and cultivation, which will increase your survival rate in those trials."

"What? Really?"

Henrick felt he would be bored in only two places; however, after hearing the trial master's words, Henrick got to know that from level 1 trials, he would be entering other worlds which are real.

At the same time, if he died there, he would die in real life too.

"As for your second skill, passive strength is always good  because we don't know from which direction the energy might come and kill you in those trials."

The trial didn't say anything about the outside world; he only said about the trials.

According to him, as long as he survives in those trials, surviving in Henrick's present world is very easy.

"Oh"

Henrick didn't upgrade the skills the trial master suggested blindly; instead, he thought about it for a moment and decided to upgrade those skills.

Because if his cultivation was around master realm or grandmaster realm, he could cover his face and since his camouflage skill will be hiding his bloodline and cultivation. So, no one can find out about his whereabouts unless he willingly removes the mask on his face.

'System, use the rank 2 skill upgrade crystals and upgrade Camouflage and Demon strength to level 3.'

Soon, the crystals in his hands turned into dust before he got two system notifications.

'Ding,

          Skill 'Camouflage' upgraded to level 3.

          Effect:- It can hide the user's bloodline and cultivation from the eyes of the cultivators below 'Immortal realm'.

'Ding,

          Skill 'Demon strength' upgrade to level 3.

          Effect:- User's battle prowess will be increased by four times.

'Holy fire god!'

When he saw the modified effect of the skill 'Camouflage', Henrick could not help but exclaim and thought, 'If only I had this skill before, I would not have been hunted by the whole Zrochester province.'

That's right!

Henrick regretted not using that skill upgrade crystal before coming out of the treasure land. If he had used it as soon as he got the rewards, things would have been moved differently.

'Sigh...there is no medicine for regret. So, it's just a waste of time to regret something that was completed already.'

He shook his head and checked the level 3 demon strength.

'It increased from three to four times of my original strength. Not bad.'

He nodded his head.

Without the help of any skill or techniques, he had the confidence of fighting a level 8 or level 9 energy condensation realm cultivator.

If adding the skills and techniques, he could fight the level 2 or level 3 energy transformation realm cultivators.

"Also, with the 100 bloodline points I got from the rewards, I have a total of 105 bloodline points. I still have a long way to reach 1000 bloodline points to make a change in the bloodline or buy a new bloodline."

Henrick looked at the bloodline points and didn't ponder much time because he had yet to collect the required bloodline points.

"Did I miss any reward?"

After that, he started checking for any other rewards he missed from the earlier rewards.

"Oh. How did I forget about it."

As expected, he forgot about a good reward from the system and took out his rank 3 spear before saying, 'System, I want to upgrade this weapon.'

That's right!

The reward was the system would upgrade a rank 3 weapon into rank 4. So, he took out his favorite weapon without any hesitation and asked the system to upgrade it.

'Ding,

          Are you sure about it, master?

Currently, in Henrick's possession, there were another two rank 3 weapons.

One is a rank 3 battle-axe which he got from killing Edan, and as for the other weapon, it was a rank 3 saber.

However, among these three rank 3 weapons, Henrick was connected with his 'Burning soul' spear.

He fought many fights with the spear. So, of course, he wanted to upgrade it over the other rank 3 weapons.

'Yes.'

So, there was no hesitation as he nodded his head.

'Ding,

        The weapon refinement process has started. Please wait until the process is finished.

As soon as he accepted, the rank 3 spear in his hands was covered in bright red-coloured light.

"Since it is taking time, I will just sell the two rank 3 weapons in my possession."

Without any hesitation, he decided to sell the other two rank 3 weapons in his inventory.

He looked at the old man for a moment before walking towards the soul store.

Since he was in the inheritance building, why would he take the help of the trial master? If it was free, he could take it; however, he had to pay 10 percent of the deal as a fee.

'I want to sell two rank 3 weapons.'
