Chapter 4: Strange Symbol
"That guy Charles is really like a dog that can't spit out ivory. He said these disgusting words early in the morning."
"Don't worry, Lucious. If this guy comes to trouble you again in the future, then I will go and cause trouble for him."
As Lily said this, she raised her little fist with a vicious expression. Two small tiger teeth were exposed at the corners of her mouth, looking fierce.
Seeing her like this, Lucious couldn't help but laugh and cry. "Lily, are you a student or a demon cultivator? You're always ready to hit people; you're going crazy."
Unexpectedly, Lily was not ashamed, but proud. She put her hands on her hips and raised her little head proudly.
"Hmph, who makes me a genius? Mwahaha!"
Hearing this, Lucious shook his head helplessly. But he had to admit that although Lily's words were a little crazy, they were also true.
Because she had the best fire spirit root, she was a rare opponent in the entire No. 1 Middle School. Not to mention Charles, who only had high-grade spiritual roots. Although they were both students in the Tiandao class, there were differences between them!
After arriving at the teaching building, Lily waved to Lucious, "Lucious, see you later!"
"Yeah."
Lucious nodded and then walked straight towards the school's 'training room.' Although with the help of "Real Cultivation of Immortality," Lucious did not neglect practice in reality. Especially now that his spiritual root qualifications had been greatly improved.
[Name: Lucious (Qingyun Sect's handyman)]
[Qualification: Top grade miscellaneous spiritual roots (metal, wood, water, fire, earth)]
[Cultivation: Second level of Qi training period (2300/15000)]
[Exercise: Five Spirits Hunyuan Jue]
[Spells: Purple Glow Health Preservation Skill (Dacheng 1/10000), Sharpness Technique (Dacheng 1/1000), Rainfall Technique (Proficiency 15/100), Immortal Alliance Five Elements Basic Talisman (Basic 50/200)]
[Current experience value: 300]
Lucious's original plan was to start using his experience points for cultivation after his spiritual roots reached the 'high level,' to reach the fourth level of the Qi training stage as soon as possible.
But what he didn't expect was that this skill level could continue to improve after reaching 'Dacheng.' This undoubtedly made him change his original mind. The effect of Purple Glow's health-preserving power is so terrifying. Lucious couldn't imagine what it would be like to be in a higher realm than Dacheng.
And as he upgraded his 'Sharp Skill' to 'Dacheng,' his efficiency in completing the 'wood-cutting task' in the game had been greatly improved. In one game day, he has been able to complete two tasks of chopping wood. Counting other miscellaneous things, he can get "30~40 experience points" in one game day. In reality, one day is about 350 experience points.
Therefore, the "10,000 experience points" required to upgrade Purple Glow's magical power to Dacheng is not enough for him. It only takes three hundred game days, which is about a month in reality. If he can speed up the acquisition of experience, this time will undoubtedly be further shortened. It sounds like a long time, but considering the situation of other people practicing Purple Glow Health Kung Fu, it's no exaggeration to say that his cultivation speed is like riding a rocket.
In addition to gaining experience points in the game, he can also gain experience points by practicing in reality. It's just that the speed of gaining experience in reality is not nearly as fast as in the game. This is not only because the time in the game is ten to one in reality, but also because the spiritual power in reality does not seem to be as strong as in the game. Therefore, the speed of gaining experience points in practice is much slower in reality than in the game.
But no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still flesh. What's more, cultivation is the foundation of a monk. Lucious doesn't spend experience points on cultivation, not because cultivation is unimportant. Instead, it is undoubtedly more cost-effective to use experience to improve skills.
After spending a certain amount of credits and renting a training room, Lucious first put the game character into idle mode and asked him to repeat the tasks of cutting down trees, chopping firewood, and delivering firewood. He started to meditate with his eyes closed and began practicing.
Rich spiritual power coupled with the qualification of high-grade spiritual roots. Lucious felt that his cultivation level was improving at a speed visible to the naked eye. In comparison, it was more than twice as fast as when using the Spiritual Root.
Half a day later...
"As expected of a high-grade spiritual root, the cultivation speed is more than three times faster than that of a low-grade spiritual root."
"I just don't know if I can raise my spiritual roots to the best level after Purple Glow's health-preserving skills improve further."
"If this is true, then even without the experience points of 'Real Cultivation of Immortality,' the normal cultivation speed can be several times that of ordinary people."
"The Purple Glow Health Kung Fu is really a magical technique that can transform decay into something magical. Who created it?"
Extremely low cultivation threshold, extremely high cultivation effect. If it weren't for the fact that the training conditions for this technique were somewhat harsh, and the effects wouldn't be visible for a long time, the value of this skill might be even greater. After all, there is no way for others to use experience points to shorten the training time of the technique like him. It may take them hundreds of days just to practice Purple Glow Health Kung Fu from beginner to proficient. What's more, it is normal for the subsequent mastery and achievement to take dozens or even hundreds of years. With this kind of skill, a cultivator might be able to build a foundation or even form an elixir.
Thinking of this, Lucious felt the importance of "Real Cultivation of Immortality" more and more. Without it, he doesn't know how long it would take to practice Purple Glow Health Kung Fu to where he is now.
Thinking of this, Lucious immediately took out his mobile phone and prepared to see how many experience points the game characters in the mobile phone had gained during his training period.
But when he opened Real Cultivation, Lucious unexpectedly discovered a strange symbol appeared in the upper right corner of the screen.
**[Dungeon unlocked, Ancient Repair Mausoleum]**
"Dungeon unlocked?"
Looking at the dungeon button that suddenly appeared on the game screen, Lucious looked a little stunned.
Because this is the first time he has seen the so-called 'copy' since he obtained "Real Cultivation of Immortality" a month ago.
Lucious didn't know what caused him to activate this copy.
"I don't know what this copy will bring to me," he thought.
But relying on his understanding of the 'copy' in his previous life, this 'Ancient Repair Mausoleum' should contain many rich rewards.
Thinking of this, Lucious directly clicked on the 'dungeon entrance' in the upper right corner.
A description about the copy immediately came into view.
**[Copy: Ancient Repair Mausoleum]**
**[Minimum requirement: Qi training period one level]**
**[Description: An ancient tomb from ancient times, in which many powerful men seem to be buried. Due to some unknown reasons, some powerful people transformed into Dharma Corpses. Not only did they recover certain memories, but they also gained some of their previous strength, so they need to be dealt with carefully.]**
**[Note 1: If you die in the copy, the main body will not be affected]**
**[Note 2: The copy is refreshed every three months]**
**[Note 3: When the dungeon is open, you can choose immersion mode]**
There is not much description about the copy, but the amount of information is not small at all.
The first is that if you die within the copy, the main body will not be affected.
In addition to giving Lucious no worries in the dungeon, it also answered a question Lucious had before.
That is, if you die in the game, will you be affected in reality?
The answer is now self-evident.
Otherwise, the "main body" point would not be specifically mentioned in the dungeon's prompts.
Secondly, the copy is refreshed every three months.
Combined with his understanding of dungeons in his previous life, this should mean that each dungeon contains rich rewards.
It is best to use up the so-called number of copies before refreshing to avoid missing precious resources.
Finally, there is the so-called 'immersion mode.'
When Lucious saw these four words, he vaguely had an answer in his mind.
But this answer needs further verification.
**[You have opened the copy of Ancient Repair Mausoleum. Do you want to enable immersion mode?]**
**[Yes]**
The next second, Lucious felt the scene in front of him change.
When he opened his eyes again, a strange, dark underground tomb appeared in front of him.
Lucious lowered his head and looked at the gray robe that symbolized the Qingyun Sect's servants.
He sighed: "Sure enough, this so-called immersion mode is a situation similar to a real-person simulation."
"In a sense, am I also traveling through time in a different way?"
Lucious smiled and shook his head, no longer thinking about these messy things, and raised his head to observe the surrounding environment.
The passage of the mausoleum was very quiet, and the air was filled with an unspeakable rancid stench.
The walls on both sides of the passage were covered with torches, and it was intimidating that there was no end in sight.
Because he had the guarantee of unlimited resurrection, Lucious was not too afraid of the unknown dungeon environment in front of him.
He strode forward, ready to explore the unknown area in front of him...
