【502 days left until the host’s dantian is permanently shattered!】
The daily reminder still existed.
Below it, several lines of small text appeared.
【Activation condition: First contact with high-level energy body
Status: Achieved!】
【Mutual understanding with the opponent: No hostility
Level bonus: 1x
Reward points: 1
Remaining points: 1】
As the lines of golden text flashed before Su Jingzhen’s eyes, he was stunned.“This… this is my golden finger!”
“Two and a half years, exactly two and a half years, it’s finally activated!”
After being stunned for a moment, he was excited to the point of trembling.
It took him half a stick of incense to calm down slightly.
It was only because he had been stuck at the bottom of the cultivation world and had never encountered a high-level expert from this world.
Therefore, the activation condition for the golden finger had not been met, and it had taken two and a half years to achieve.
The arrival of this mysterious woman was indeed a blessing from heaven.
However, what was a high-level energy body?
“Looks like it’s at least stronger than an inner disciple of Huayang Sect, and even higher than the Foundation Establishment stage?”
Su Jingzhen muttered to himself.
In the past, the strongest person he had seen was an inner disciple of Huayang Sect, and even that was only at the Foundation Establishment stage.
With the activation of the golden finger, Su Jingzhen’s brain had automatically gained some information about the golden finger.
As it turned out, as long as the mutual understanding with the person reached a certain level, one could obtain corresponding bonus points.
What was mutual understanding?
It could also be understood as making someone feel warm or moved, thereby improving their impression of the host.
The mutual understanding level had eight levels: ‘No Hostility’, ‘Slight Fondness’, ‘Mutual Appreciation’, ‘Mutual Affection’, ‘Deep Affection’, ‘Intimate Connection’, ‘Lifelong Companionship’, and Life and Death Bond’.
【Remaining usable points: 1】
【Qi-refining Stage initial stage (1st layer): 94/100】
【Metal spiritual roots (ordinary): 23/100】
【Wood spiritual roots (ordinary): 99/100】
【Water spiritual roots (ordinary): 25/100】
【Fire spiritual roots (ordinary): 89/100】
【Earth spiritual roots (ordinary): 32/100】
【Wood spiritual roots (ordinary): 99/100】
Seeing this option, Su Jingzhen was stunned.
In the cultivation world, spiritual roots were divided into ordinary, mysterious, earth, and heavenly grades!
Normally, the fewer spiritual roots attributes one had, the higher the possibility of giving birth to high-quality spiritual roots.
After all, the more attributes one had, the more they would be scattered, and it would be difficult to cultivate multiple systems simultaneously.
Moreover, resources in the cultivation world were limited, and even sect disciples found it difficult to cultivate multiple systems simultaneously, not to mention the saying “bite off more than you can chew”.
Most cultivators who achieved success were those who specialized in a single attribute and focused on it.
Unfortunately, Su Jingzhen’s five spiritual roots were all ordinary!
Each of his attributes was the lowest grade, and he had all five elements, making his spiritual roots even more laughable among cultivators.
At this time, Su Jingzhen licked his lips and, without hesitation, added the point to his wood attribute.
Most alchemists in the cultivation world came from the wood and fire attributes.
After all, most medicinal materials contained wood attribute spiritual energy, and the higher the quality of the wood attribute spiritual roots, the higher the compatibility with medicinal materials, and the higher the success rate of refining pills.
And the higher the quality of the fire attribute spiritual roots, the stronger the control over flames, making it easier to refine pills.
But the furnaces in the cultivation world all came with built-in flame control arrays, so it wasn’t that necessary.
For Su Jingzhen at present, adding the limited points to his spiritual roots, and specifically to his wood attribute, was a better value.
Although he wanted to add the point directly to his cultivation, with only one point, it was not enough to make a breakthrough, which was regrettable.
After adding the point, Su Jingzhen himself didn’t feel anything special.
But before his eyes, the golden characters reappeared.
【Host: Su Jingzhen
Cultivation: Qi-refining Stage initial stage (1st layer): 94/100
Mutual understanding: 1 person, level: no hostility】
【Metal spiritual roots (ordinary): 23/100】
【Wood spiritual roots (mysterious): 0/200】
【Water spiritual roots (ordinary): 25/100】
【Fire spiritual roots (ordinary): 89/100】
【Earth spiritual roots (ordinary): 32/100】
He was stunned again, and his wood attribute spiritual roots had already reached the mysterious grade!
This was just the lowest level, and it had only taken one point to achieve. If he could raise the level, it would be even more incredible!
Although this was the lowest level of spiritual roots transformation, it was still unimaginable.
It had even broken some of the iron laws of the cultivation world.
At this moment, his dantian was still damaged, but Su Jingzhen felt that his future was bright.
“Come in!”
When Su Jingzhe was thinking about the future, the cold voice suddenly came from the quiet room again.
Hearing this, Su Jingzhen quickly adjusted his attire.
The woman was now someone Su Jingzhen considered his benefactor, and he had to serve her well.
In just a short period of time, Su Jingzhen’s mindset had already changed greatly.
He didn’t dare to delay, and immediately pushed open the door.
But the next moment, he was stunned again.
He saw that the woman was still in the bathtub, with her back to him.
Su Jingzhen had thought that she had called him in because she had finished bathing and was already dressed.
But he didn’t expect that she hadn’t even gotten out of the bath yet.
The woman’s shoulders were bare, but not at all alluring.
Because on those exposed white shoulders, there were several shocking, deep scars that could be seen to the bone.
The wounds had been soaked in warm water, and had already turned white, making them look even more terrifying.
“Miss, you, you’re…”
Su Jingzhen unconsciously averted his gaze.
This unconscious action was detected by the woman, who again showed some surprise.
“Help me out…”
When she said this, her tone had a hint of abnormality.
Su Jingzhen was stunned again.
“That… Miss, are you saying you want me to help you out of the bath?”
Su Jingzhen felt that his understanding was correct.
“Not wrong, but you’d better cover your eyes. I may be weakened, but I still have the ability to kill you.”
The woman’s tone had returned to its previous cold and domineering state.
Of course, she wasn’t trying to intimidate Su Jingzhen.
In her eyes, killing a Qi-refining Stage cultivator like Su Jingzhen was no big deal.
And she had made this decision after careful consideration.
Just now, in the bathtub, she had made a difficult decision to seal her own acupoints to prevent her injuries from worsening.
After doing so, she had embarrassingly discovered that she didn’t even have the strength to get out of the bath.
And she really couldn’t afford to undo the seal, which would only make the situation worse.
But if Su Jingzhen dared to make a move or overstep his bounds, she would not hesitate to kill him.
“That… this…”
“Although I’m a cultivator, I’m not one to bother with trivial matters, but men and women should keep their distance…”
Su Jingzhen knew that the woman in front of him was a terrifying existence, an absolute taboo that should not be offended.
He had read many novels where the protagonist would foolishly touch the woman’s body in a situation like this and end up dead.
Moreover, the woman’s current appearance was not alluring.
Right now, she was in a precarious state, and strong people in such states could be deadly.
“Don’t talk so much, just do as I say!”
Seeing Su Jingzhen’s hesitation, the woman’s voice grew even colder.
Su Jingzhen didn’t sense any aura fluctuations, but the temperature in the quiet room seemed to drop a few degrees.
This was the woman’s killing intent!
Su Jingzhen’s throat rolled.
He had just awakened his golden finger and was about to rise to power, and he couldn’t die now.
A real man could be soft or hard, flexible or firm!
He immediately covered his eyes with a piece of cloth and wrapped his hands with his outer garment.
Then, he slowly approached the bathtub.
This was a desperate struggle for survival.
