Chapter 28: Encyclopedia of the Immortal Cultivation World, Virtual Panel
Boom~~
The next second, Zhou Sui's mind jolted, and he immediately discovered that a virtual panel had suddenly appeared before his eyes—a virtual panel that only he could see.
【Host: Zhou Sui, Cultivation: Qi Refining Fourth Layer (Progress 35%), Lifespan: 18 (120) years】
【Aptitude: Eighth Grade Spirit Root (25%)】
【Sword Dao: First Tier Mid Grade (55%)】
【Rune: First-grade Low-grade (84%)】
【Phantom Demon Transformation Art: Beginner (30%)】
Suddenly, a series of messages presented themselves before Zhou Sui.
"Is this the power of the Book Gu?"
Seeing this virtual panel, Zhou Sui was simply dumbfounded; he instantly knew this was one of the Book Gu's abilities, which was the ability to digitize the skills the Host had mastered, allowing the Host to have an intuitive understanding of their own capabilities.
One must know, all Cultivators in this world do not know exactly what level the knowledge they have mastered has reached, only possessing a vague, fuzzy feeling.
Yet the power of the Book Gu is able to display the abilities one possesses in a digitized form.
This also allows Cultivators to understand themselves better.
It is easy to imagine just how astonishing such an ability is, and it has a huge enhancing effect on the Cultivator themselves.
And these skills also have levels of distinction, which are Beginner, Proficient, Mastery, Minor Achievement, Major Achievement, Grandmaster, Perfection, and so on; the higher the level, the more powerful the strength exerted naturally is.
"My Sword Dao has actually reached the First Tier Mid Grade level? And Rune has also reached the First-grade Low-grade level? When did this even happen? I don't seem to have studied much."
"Right, Dual Cultivation; this is knowledge obtained from my Dao Companion when we were practicing Dual Cultivation."
"I didn't expect that, unknowingly, I had mastered so many skills."
"That gray airflow's power is able to help me increase my comprehension; this is a type of ability of the Book Gu."
"The more books devoured, and the more precious the books are, the more comprehension is gained."
Zhou Sui stroked his chin; it was the first time he had perceived so clearly that he had mastered so many abilities, and it was evident he was no longer a bottom-tier Cultivator.
At this moment, he also knew the formidable nature of the Book Gu; to a certain extent, it is the most comprehensive type of auxiliary Gu Insect, capable of learning various skills by devouring books.
For example, by devouring books on Runes, one could learn the knowledge of Runes.
By devouring books on techniques, one could learn various techniques.
If one were to devour books on Pill Dao, one could learn various Alchemy techniques.
In short, the Book Gu is a marvelous Gu Insect that can learn rapidly by devouring various books.
Even in the process of devouring these books, the Book Gu can also devour the unique aura left behind by these books, and these unique auras will be converted into comprehension.
Thereby causing the Host to briefly increase their comprehension, allowing the Host to reach a level of photographic memory and drawing inferences about other cases from one instance, making the Host's learning efficiency increase dozens, or even hundreds of times.
That is to say, he needs to help the Book Gu find all kinds of books in order to help the Book Gu grow rapidly.
"There is actually such a marvelous Gu Insect in the world; with this Book Gu, I don't need to cultivate diligently. Using the power of the Book Gu to devour these books, it is equivalent to me having learned them too."
Zhou Sui was incredibly excited.
Without a doubt, after refining the Book Gu, his learning ability had received a huge boost.
Ordinary people need decades, or even hundreds of years, to cultivate a single skill, but he only needs to eat the book, and the efficiency has increased by who knows how many times.
Ordinary Cultivators can only specialize in one skill, but he can master a hundred skills and become an all-around genius.
As long as he collects enough books, he can become an encyclopedia of the Immortal Cultivation World.
Thinking of this, Zhou Sui did not hesitate and immediately took out a large number of books and jade slips from his person; these were all obtained from the Miyun Three Evils, and now they were all handed over to the Book Gu.
Crunch, crunch~~~
After smelling the scent of the books, the Book Gu felt very excited, as if it had smelled supreme delicacies, and it instantly pounced toward these books.
Immediately, book after book became its possession.
He also perceived that vast amounts of information were surging from the depths of his sea of consciousness, as if they were engraved in the depths of his Soul, and also as if he had been proficient in this book for decades.
Such a feeling was incomparably marvelous.
"Hmm, it's full after eating only three books?!"
At this time, Zhou Sui blinked his eyes; he had thought the Book Gu could eat all these books at once, but after eating only three books, it let out a burp, indicating it could not eat any more.
Evidently, the newly born Book Gu still has a limit to the number of books it can digest each day.
Only when the Book Gu grows further can it devour a large number of books at once.
However, this is enough; anyway, he is not short on time right now, and it is not too late to eat the remaining books slowly.
He also perceived that after eating three books, the Book Gu had accumulated a portion of gray airflow, and he could use this gray airflow to increase his own comprehension.
Using the comprehension that surged in a short period of time, he could also use it to improve a skill he possessed.
"Right, I can improve the Phantom Demon Transformation Art; at the very least, it must be raised to the Minor Achievement realm."
Zhou Sui narrowed his eyes.
According to the records in this book, if one can reach the Beginner level, one can deceive ordinary Qi Practitioners.
If one can reach the Proficient level, even a Qi Refining Late Stage Cultivator would be unable to detect him.
If one can reach the Mastery level, then even a Foundation Establishment Cultivator would be unable to detect his tricks.
If one can reach the Grandmaster level, or even Perfection, then no matter how strong the Cultivator is, they would be unable to detect his current situation.
Even among Demonic sects, this technique is a quite top-tier auxiliary technique, created by a Demonic Great Ability for the purpose of cultivating spies.
Once successfully cultivated, Demonic disciples could disguise themselves as righteous disciples and infiltrate righteous sects as spies.
It is precisely because of this that he must improve this technique at the first opportunity.
If successful, then when his clone goes out, others will be unable to detect his cultivation.
He could even disguise himself as different levels of Qi Practitioners, thereby confusing the other party and letting the enemy not know his true background.
Rustle, rustle~~
In an instant, Zhou Sui moved his consciousness and immediately urged the gray airflow on the Book Gu, causing these mysterious gray airflows to submerge into the depths of his Soul.
At this moment, he perceived that his comprehension seemed to have increased tenfold, or even several dozen times.
The originally abstruse and difficult Phantom Demon Transformation Art was now as simple as kindergarten mathematics.
Beginner 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%...
He perceived that his insights into this cultivation technique had improved geometrically, nearly reaching the Proficient level.
