upgraded to Exquisite quality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had intended to continue improving its quality, but the Paradise issued a warning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Note: Continuing to upgrade to ??? quality may trigger unknown effects such as insufficient equipment requirements or Dragon Vein backlash—consequences borne by user.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Ming immediately stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had no control over the Dragon Vein.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed the quality tiers in Xu Kequan’s system represented not just equipment quality, but also the stages a Disciple could safely handle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After upgrading to Exquisite quality, Guo Ming could now select one additional Dragon Son as a permanent effect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After brief consideration, he directly chose Fu Xi, the Dragon Son.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had experienced the effect of Pu Lao, but its restrictions were too severe—he’d wait until next time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Nine Tripods Map】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Type: Equipment·Scroll】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Quality: Exquisite】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Durability: 100\u002F100】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Charisma +19】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Luck +6】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Dragon Vein Power (Active): Consume 19% of maximum mana to boost all summoned creatures’ stats by 30% for 30 minutes, cooldown 1 hour】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Dragon Son of Stability (Passive): Two Dragon Sons fight permanently for you; each minute consumes 200 HP to maintain; 24-hour cooldown after switching Dragon Sons; Dragon Son costs borne by Disciple】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>（Ba Xia: Adds 1% of maximum HP as a shield per second, stacking up to 110 layers）\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>（Fu Xi: Reduces skill cost of allied summoned creatures by 21%）\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【All Dragon Forms Manifest (Passive): Charisma +20】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Hidden Dragon in the Abyss (Passive): Damage reduction 10%】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Bell and Cauldron Feast (Passive): Consume nine Dragon Pearls, Dragon Crystals, or Dragon Essence as nourishment to upgrade Nine Tripods Map to next quality tier (Progress: 0\u002F9, Evolution count: 1）】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>（Note: This upgrade requires Dragon Pearls, Dragon Crystals, or Dragon Essence of Exquisite quality only）\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Equipment Requirement: Dragon Vein recognition, possessor of the complete Nine Tripods Map, Charisma 30, six Lv.1 Summoning Mastery skills】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Honestly, glad he didn’t push further—equipping it would’ve been a hassle otherwise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If his Mastery levels were insufficient, he might truly have been unable to suppress the Dragon Vein.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Charisma bonus reached 39, but Luck only increased by 1 point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed increasing Luck was no easy task.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for Guo Ming, the real gain was gaining another Dragon Son, with its effect enhanced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Nine Tripods Map likely couldn’t grow infinitely—it was merely a product of a low-level martial world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It probably maxed out at nine upgrades, once all nine Dragon Sons were permanently active, the Dragon Vein would be nearly restored.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Further upgrades would require finding other methods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And even nine upgrades were just Guo Ming’s guess—it might be fewer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its base was only Fine quality; even the highest limit was finite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Su Nu Sword was probably similar, but the Guo family had power and influence, prioritizing spiritual potential.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Ming was different—he had no money, no skills, so he had to take it one step at a time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Consumption dropped another two-tenths.” Guo Ming immediately sensed the change after Fu Xi appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A 21% reduction was instantly noticeable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, unfortunately it can't stack—it must be calculated separately,\" Guo Ming said with deep regret.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if it did stack, everyone would collapse under such exponential power growth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He himself might die from it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, these bonuses weren’t just numbers—they were real power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only the Paradise had rendered them visible as data; treating them as mere numbers would lead to catastrophic consequences.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Ming understood this well, so he merely accepted it as normal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By the way, can consumption ever reach zero?” Guo Ming asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I don’t know about you—I can’t make it zero,” Guo Ming said bluntly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Domination skill had already told him that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the two chatted back and forth, they began expanding the waterway, preparing for what came next.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the Dragon Bone Scripture, they’d deal with it after leaving underground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Ming hadn’t yet decided whether to use it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mainly because his permanent summons were already saturated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His path was a common one in Summoning—focus on self-improvement, then amplify the summons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, he invested little in permanent summons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who prioritized permanent summons leaned toward Beast Tamer paths.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Neither was better—just that self-first, summon-amplifying suited Guo Ming better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, his true mainstays were allies and equipment-summoned creatures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Da Bao and Da Bai were long-term investments—profitable, but not yielding big returns yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why had they grown so fast without heavy resource investment?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a reason—they hadn’t been starved of resources, just not with material ones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more knowledge Guo Ming had in Summoning, the better their cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So resources weren’t absent—just not the primary kind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Training another permanent summon made Guo Ming hesitate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hesitation came from the Dragon Bone Scripture’s Exquisite quality and its ability to choose summon type.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, completing the basic trio: tank, mage, healer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Da Bao was a warrior, Da Bai a healer—missing only a mage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn’t short on damage output—right now, both the Son of Heaven and the Ghost Mother could serve as DPS.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But their potential was still inferior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or he could choose a permanent summon for scouting or perception to fill the gap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t unnecessary—he was just too poor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, this also proved Guo Ming’s strength—after all, he’d spent his Paradise points wisely, and growing stronger was inevitable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Paradise was fair in this regard—you got returns for your investment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if your direction was wrong, the Paradise still granted corresponding rewards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Phew~ Finally done.” Guo Ming exhaled, staring at the blocked waterway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once Guo Ming dismantled the formation, the Huanglong River would instantly flood back, triggering chain collapses around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thanks to precise calculations, they’d been given time to escape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Actually, no need to worry—Guo Ming could easily carry Guo Ming and Da Bao to safety.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Yue Lan Wu Ying, if it died, it could be summoned again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side, Wu Zhen’s refining of the Ziwei Jade Seal was nearing completion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The final sliver of imperial purple qi sank into the Ziwei Jade Seal, and the Dragon-Skinning Altar instantly collapsed into ruins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Zhen’s soul drifted over and handed the Ziwei Jade Seal to Guo Ming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon contact, his talent quest completed and triggered its final stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Chain Quest Stage 4: Preserve the Ziwei Jade Seal until return】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Trial Difficulty: F-rank (Extremely Easy）】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Trial Reward: None】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Trial Failure: Terminate this Talent Awakening quest】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The final stage’s difficulty plummeted from S-rank nightmare to F-rank ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the Paradise’s comprehensive assessment—Guo Ming’s trial quest was already complete.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All he needed was to store the Ziwei Jade Seal in his inventory, survive, and return to the Paradise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if he chose to kill himself, the Paradise couldn’t help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Ming instantly stored it in his inventory, without even checking its stats—Wu Zhen spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s go, or we won’t make it.” No sooner had Wu Zhen spoken than a torrent of yin energy erupted from the ruins of the Dragon-Skinning Altar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thick and visible, terrifyingly dense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Zhen showed no fear, only turned to face the ruins, silently staring—no one knew what he thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he wouldn’t need to think anymore—his soul had become completely transparent, meaning his spirit had fully scattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Refining the Ziwei Jade Seal had already drained Wu Zhen’s soul—he’d merely held on to his last breath to hand over the seal and give one final instruction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Guo Ming could react, Guo Ming immediately seized him and Da Bao and fled on his sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously, he unsealed the blocked waterway—the river surged back instantly, forming a terrifying flood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The flood triggered geological collapse immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The yin energy had barely begun to leak when it was violently suppressed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Ming rushed into Yuanping King’s tomb, but the collapse accelerated rapidly—the entire tomb cracked open, and the fissures spread wider.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Guo Ming did not dare to pause for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The area is too vast—it may affect this stretch of Huanglong River, and the surrounding tombs might be damaged too,” Chu Danqing said as Guo Ming carried him away on a sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If these tombs were not pressed deeper but instead pulled up to the surface, it would mean a great evil entity was about to emerge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Chu, rest assured—I anticipated this,” Guo Ming replied; he had not failed to see the long row of tombs beneath the Huanglong River.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they departed from Yuanping Wang’s tomb and entered the Huanglong River, the collapse underground and the backflow of river water caused numerous tombs to crack open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, there was some good news: the tombs, carried by tectonic movement, began sinking downward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not being dragged to the surface was already a blessing; avoiding burial even deeper was a luxury, let alone escaping destruction from ground collapse during the process.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They surged from the bottom of the Huanglong River onto land, then swiftly distanced themselves from the riverbank until no further disturbances could be felt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Ming was still shaken—if they had not prepared in advance and moved fast enough, it would have been disastrous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they had failed to escape, being buried underground would have been the least of their worries—the true horror was being dragged into the Netherworld.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I hope the Yinming opening, once buried, won’t cause further trouble,” Chu Danqing said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Ming replied: “Brother Chu, just stay far away—the rest has nothing to do with us.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1563,"2026-06-20T00:54:41.633Z",1,"Qwen3-Next
