Chapter 146: Spirit Firstness (Thanks to scary

~11 min read 2,076 words

【Spirit Firstness】.

In blessings, it is opposite to the 【Matter Firstness】 known as the Pillar of the Wilderness Ruins.

Just looking at the name, you know that the relationship between the two is completely incompatible and has never appeared on the same Chosen.

【Matter Firstness】 emphasizes that "matter is the fundamental existence of the world, and all spirit must obey matter itself."

And the essence of 【Spirit Firstness】 is to reverse the positions of the two, placing spirit before the world.

Denying that spirit is attached to objects, emphasizing the priority of spirit.

Matter Firstness sounds very scientific, but Spirit Firstness already starts to be crazy just by listening to the description.

But considering this is Ascension… it's normal.

You have to know that the main theme of the Ascension lineage is the transcendence of the soul and the transcendence of the will, which is about complete subjectivity, without any objectivity.

Views and theories such as "the world is formed because of me," "all things are prepared for me," "a dream, a butterfly becomes me," etc., are common among Chosen in the Ascension lineage.

Such arrogant ideas of placing subjectivity above objectivity can only be said to be an introduction, and it is a technical job to place one's own subjectivity above others' subjectivity.

"Today I am going to go against the sky," "My drill will break through the sky," etc., are also endless.

Although it is also very unobjective to say so, in the Ascension lineage that manages the soul and the Heart Pivot lineage that manages the mind, it is actually quite normal for the spirit to be abnormal.

And under this premise, the passive blessing of Spirit Firstness is also particularly normal and simple compared to other blessings.

In addition to the characteristics of the Ascension lineage—the spiritual quality upper limit and recovery speed are greatly enhanced, it also brings Ji Jue a gradually improved spiritual resistance and tolerance.

And its main effect is that in some situations, it can limitedly ignore the defects and harsh conditions of matter itself, and make up for it with the consumption of spiritual quality and will, so as to achieve the effect.

Simply put, conditions are not enough, fighting spirit to make up.

For example, survivors in a fire, mothers carrying vehicles to save children, rock climbers about to fall off a cliff, athletes breaking records chased by bears, the survival road of escaping from the fraud park across the country and mountains in four hours…

Although lacking other blessing combinations, the initial effect is limited. If left alone, it is at most the degree of allowing the mobile phone to support from the subway to home with one percent of the power…

But it is a noble, growable passive!

There is too much room for excavation.

Just the basic state has greatly improved the maintenance time of Mechanical Descent, directly doubling it. Ji Jue dare not think about what surprises will happen after the subsequent qualitative change is full and the blessing is upgraded.

Whether it is "Hand of Heaven" or "Spirit Firstness," such big late-stage blessings are simply the gospel of rolling dogs. Ji Jue is not afraid of long experience bars; the longer the experience bar, the more excited he is, the more motivated he is to liver, and he is too happy to be happy…

Set a small goal first—relying on Spirit Firstness, save a few thousand yuan in electricity bills!

Who wouldn't like a mobile phone that can be used for a week after one charge?

Simply, high spirits!

"Well, since the blessing of Spirit Firstness came so smoothly, then the practice of the next stage can begin."

In the workshop, after checking Ji Jue's current state again, Professor Ye said indifferently: "—Regarding the integration and linkage between blessings."

"Have you thought about the development direction of Hand of Heaven?"

She asked suddenly, making Ji Jue slightly stunned.

For a time, he didn't know how to answer.

After all, the time was too short, he was already too busy adapting to the blessing of Hand of Heaven and gradually trying to expand the effect and boundaries of this blessing.

Up to now, it can only be said to be a degree of barely mastering it.

Coupled with the speed of advancement being too outrageous, so much so that he didn't have time to consider it at all.

It's like people often say that there is no strongest weapon, only the strongest person.

Even weapons, the more people use them, the more different styles and tendencies there are, such as dancing a hammer, powerful and heavy, such as a small knife, light and flickering, like a Tachi that goes down…

Blessings are the same, sometimes, the same blessing presents completely different effects in different people's hands.

They are all groups, all conventional blood drinking, fighting, and breaking, plus the opportunity to defeat the enemy, but in Ji Jue's view, with the same configuration, Old Tang can slaughter ten opponents without breathing hard.

The practice level has long been full, and after several qualitative changes of the blessing, maybe it has already been upgraded… can the 0-life and full-life characters be the same?

In limited time, being greedy for more and all, being proficient in everything will only make everything sparse, and people who are dedicated to one specialty and persevere definitely cannot compare.

Even, in some factions, there are secret rituals and methods, which can improve the quality of one part of the blessing by discarding and abandoning another part of the blessing.

Of course, a blessing with such a wide range of applications as Hand of Heaven does not need to use this method to overdraw, but now Ji Jue has also reached the degree of having to choose a specialty direction.

Wild growth will only grow grass everywhere, and cannot grow any towering trees.

And it is not giving up, just making trade-offs at the current stage.

But also because the application range is too wide, Ji Jue was suddenly asked by Professor Ye at this moment, and for a time, he was a bit unable to choose.

Specialization in strength can make him literally tear steel plates, speed can pull the operation to the limit in an instant, and if the precision focus reaches the limit, maybe one day Ji Jue can pinch the extra protons in mercury with ultra-micro molecular tweezers to hand-rub gold… but no one would be so bored.

And this is just a choice in terms of basic foundation, and if it is from the perspective of operation objects, there are countless, smelting, extraction, rising, purification, and even the distinction of materials… metals, wood, compounds, blood or organs and even…

"Spiritual quality?"

Instantly, Ji Jue suddenly realized from the professor's reminder, his eyes lit up: "Are you saying that my practice direction should focus mainly on the aspect of spiritual quality operation?"

Professor Ye nodded slightly, the corners of her mouth inevitably curling up.

Meeting a student with good affinity and clear understanding, the experience of being a teacher is so silky and refreshing, there is no need for long-winded exhortations, the key points are understood at a point, and understood at a word.

Ji Jue's greatest strength now is spiritual quality operation!

Whether it is the blessing brought by Non-Attack, the purification that Fluid Alchemy is good at, or the practice of dissociation technique, and even the effect brought by Spirit Firstness, they have all allowed Ji Jue to leave others far behind in the field of spiritual quality operation.

Not to mention apprentices, ordinary artisans definitely don't have his current level.

With such good conditions, not catching up and establishing an advantage on this road is called waste!

"But even if you say focus on spiritual quality operation, I don't know how to do it."

Ji Jue sighed: "It wouldn't be squatting in front of the furnace and boiling repeatedly every day, right?"

"No need."

Professor Ye finally smiled slightly, making Ji Jue instinctively frightened.

"I have already prepared it for you."

She waved her hand, the ceiling of the workshop suddenly opened a hole, accompanied by the ghost ball's excited shout of "Here comes the little brother," a box rolled down.

It just happened to hit Ji Jue's feet.

Ji Jue picked it up and opened it, instantly dumbfounded.

Palm-sized, round, workmanship is average, material is passable, assembly is a mess… Ji Jue held it up and looked at it repeatedly, how to look at it, how to feel wrong.

This seems, seems, maybe, is just a very ordinary mechanical pocket watch sold on the street, right?

"Teacher, do you want a watch?"

Ji Jue was confused: "If you need it, tell me, my mother's family used to do this, if you don't like the brand, I'll hand-rub one for you, if it's wrong by a thread within a year, I'll twist your head off."

"Not for me."

Professor Ye picked up the pocket watch in his hand indifferently and handed it to him again: "This is for you."

The box still had the receipt, twenty-five yuan and eight cents, and it was delivered by the errand runner of the yellow takeout software yesterday, and the label hadn't been torn off. Ji Jue looked at it carefully and determined that this thing was useless except for being able to walk words, and became more confused. Maybe it was something made by some aunt who had nothing to do and took orders to earn family money.

What is it for him?

"Use your ability on it." Professor Ye ordered bluntly.

Ji Jue reached out without hesitation, Mechanical Descent.

The spiritual reaction was quite weak, like a candle in the wind. This kind of mass-produced item that didn't pour any effort and had no history at all, being able to generate a dull spiritual reaction was the limit. If he wanted a more agile reaction, he had to cultivate it with more spiritual quality himself.

"Spiritual endowment has been completed." Ji Jue reported.

"Very good." Professor Ye said, "Then, take it out."

"Ah?"

Ji Jue was sluggish, subconsciously reaching out, wanting to cancel the ability, but soon reacted, what Professor Ye said was not to cancel the ability, but… take it out?

It?

"Which it?" Ji Jue's palm hovered in the air.

"That 'it' you just created."

Professor Ye said: "Take it out, from this pocket watch, use Hand of Heaven to perform spiritual quality operation, take it out of here completely, and you cannot damage a single bit of its consciousness."

Ji Jue was sluggish.

Struck by lightning…

Holding the pocket watch with both hands, stiff in place, for a long time, looking at Professor Ye blankly, Professor Ye was also looking at him, her eyes indifferent, without any urging or impatience, just waiting.

Until Ji Jue plucked up the courage and reached out…

The convergence of spiritual quality was wrong by a thread.

Snap!

The fragile spiritual reaction dissipated instantly, turning into scattered spiritual quality, strands, falling into Ji Jue's hands, but it was meaningless. The dull spiritual wisdom in the pocket watch just now had completely disappeared.

But Ji Jue hadn't even started yet.

Didn't even have time to touch it!

Just a trace of his own spiritual quality fluctuation leaked, and it completely destroyed the pocket watch's spiritual reaction.

No way, the limitation of the pocket watch material itself, even if Ji Jue tried his best to construct a sufficiently stable spiritual wisdom reaction, it was too weak compared to other objects.

Even if Ji Jue could let the other party cooperate actively, it was like a giant trying to pinch a tiny wrench, re-disassembling the precision instrument, taking out the core, and keeping it complete.

Even, it was gone with a breath.

People say that the world's smallest mechanical watch has a movement size of less than 0.2 cm and consists of 97 parts.

When disassembling it, craftsmen must use special tools and hold their breath, because just a moment of trance is enough to cause irreversible mistakes… anyway, it's blown very cow, let's just say it is.

Ji Jue dreamed of getting one to try, but now, something more troublesome appeared in front of him.

He had already started to have no way to start.

"This is your next training goal, Ji Jue."

Professor Ye appreciated his miserable expression and said indifferently: "Come on." ===== CHAPTER 147 =====
