Chapter 171

Ding! You diligently cultivate the Blood God Scripture, congratulations on receiving reward: Vitality +1+1+1……

As a mechanical, cold voice echoed in his mind, Wang Ping'an could clearly feel his blood boiling inside, the spiritual energy drawn from all directions just beginning to seep into his body.

In an instant, it was devoured by the blood!

Time passed unnoticed, and Wang Ping'an was cultivating in selflessness; after completing a full round of the Blood God Scripture, he suddenly gained seven or eight points of vitality reward.

The benefits of the Blood God Scripture at the Cultivation level are many times those of the Mastery level.

Obviously.

Different levels produce effects that are worlds apart.

Of course.

What concerned him most was that there was now a drop of glittering golden blood inside him, formed after he completed cultivating the Blood God Scripture.

"This is the Blood God Son recorded in the Blood God Scripture? Why is my Blood God Son glittering golden?"

Wang Ping'an's face was full of strangeness.

According to the Blood God Scripture, the condensed Blood God Sons are mostly black; the darker the color, the stronger the Blood God Son's strength and the better the effect.

Never heard of a glittering golden Blood God Son!

After thinking for a long time, Wang Ping'an couldn't figure out why his Blood God Son's color differed from that recorded in the Blood God Scripture; he also couldn't be bothered to think about it, as long as it wasn't something bad, not knowing, there was no need to get to the bottom of it.

All he needed to know was that as long as the Blood God Son benefited him, its color didn't matter.

"With this drop of Blood God Son, he needn't worry no matter how severe the injury!"

Wang Ping'an gave a hehe smile, his little face full of a smug grin.

The Blood God Son can seep into others' bodies, devour their blood, even control them, and most importantly, heal his own wounds and illnesses.

As long as he still has a breath, the Blood God Son can fully heal him.

Of course.

If he could upgrade the Blood God Scripture—cough, cultivate to a higher realm, not to mention still having a breath, even if he perished to the Yellow Springs, as long as he still had a drop of Blood God Son, he could be reborn by a drop of blood.

Looking at that drop of glittering golden Blood God Son inside him, how could he not be happy?

Soon after.

Wang Ping'an calmed his excited emotions; now he had gained another life-saving means, and out of the corner of his eye he saw on the panel that there were still over a thousand Merit points, followed by a string of skills, talents, and techniques.

Each had a glittering golden '+' sign!

In a moment, Wang Ping'an once again fell into myriad thoughts, unsure which skill to upgrade to the Cultivation level.

One thought after another popped up in his mind!

Afterwards.

Wang Ping'an drove away one thought after another from his mind, his gaze finally settling on the technique: Dragon-Taming, Tiger-Subduing Technique.

Sword Control Technique and Technique have both been upgraded to Cultivation; he lacks no way to kill enemies, but lacks defensive techniques—however, he has a large number of Golden Light Talismans protecting him close to his body.

Not long ago.

The first time he came out of Jiu tou shan ji shi, he encountered an attack by Evil Cultivators; he used Golden Light Talismans to resist wave after wave of magical attacks from the two Evil Cultivators.

It wasn't that he was deliberately playing around; rather, he was testing the strength of the Golden Light Talisman.

At that time.

The strength displayed by the Golden Light Talisman also gave him quite a start.

Furthermore, he still had other life-saving means, so he didn't need to worry about his life being in danger.

Just as Wang Ping'an was preparing to upgrade his technique: Dragon-Taming, Tiger-Subduing Technique, a flash of inspiration crossed his mind; he recalled the yellowed book he had looted from three monsters not long ago, and with a thought he took the yellowed book out of his storage bag—seeing the Armor Technique on the front page, he wore a strange expression.

【Could it be that I'm really the reincarnation of the Luck God? Whatever I think of, you give me!】

Wang Ping'an forcibly suppressed his inner agitation and began to carefully study the Armor Technique.

Ding! You have carefully studied the cultivation method of the Armor Technique; congratulations, you have acquired the skill: Armor Technique【Entry Level】!

A mechanical, cold voice rang out in his mind; the next moment, with a thought, streams of pure magical power surged from his artificial dantian, swirling around his body, condensing, and soon a full set of armor coalesced.

【Is this it?】

Wang Ping'an glanced down at the pocket-sized armor on his body, and immediately recalled how, not long ago when he slew three monsters, one of them suddenly manifested an overbearing armor.

This made him quite concerned; he even thought it was a magic artifact, never expecting it to be merely this technique.

However.

He also recalled that, although that monster had suddenly manifested a suit of armor, under his Flying Sword attack it was as fragile as tofu under a knife.

This novel you have arrived at

Has no resistance capability at all!

In a split second, he lost his life.

【I still wanted to upgrade this to Cultivation, to give myself another means of self-preservation, but I didn't expect it to be just this? Is there still a need to upgrade it?】

Upon thinking this, Wang Ping'an wore a look of disappointment, just as he was about to give up the idea of upgrading the Armor Technique, a speculation flashed again in his mind, saying:

【No, perhaps it's not that the Armor Technique is ineffective, but rather my Flying Sword, combined with the Sword Control Technique and Technique, is simply unstoppable; moreover, that monster hadn't mastered the Armor Technique.

'Only then would it happen—my Flying Sword easily pierced that monster's armor, a fatal blow in one strike!'

He also recalled that the first time he came out of Jiu tou shan ji shi, he encountered an attack by two Evil Cultivators; he used Golden Light Talismans to resist wave after wave of their magical attacks, and when the two Evil Cultivators realized they couldn't win and turned to flee, he also used Golden Light Talismans to resist.

Likewise.

The Golden Light Talisman couldn't even withstand a single round, causing the two Evil Cultivators to lose their lives.

Besides proving that the gap between his Golden Light Talisman and others' is worlds apart, it also proves the power of his Flying Sword.

His Golden Light Talisman and others' can have such an obvious gap.

Naturally, this is all thanks to the system!

If.

If he uses the system to upgrade the proficiency level of the Armor Technique, perhaps it could also cause those who cultivate the Armor Technique to experience a heaven-and-earth difference.

【Why not give it a try?】

This thought just appeared in Wang Ping'an's mind, and he could no longer resist it; who let his Merit come so easily, merely a mere thousand points of Merit, as long as he lures out an Evil Cultivator or a monster intending to harm him.

He only needs to slay the opponent, and he can immediately gain a thousand points of Merit.

Being able to gain a large amount of Merit so easily, naturally he wouldn't pay too much attention to it.

Besides being able to easily obtain Merit, it's also because upgrading skills actually has many benefits.

「Ding! You spent ten points of Merit to upgrade the skill: Armor Technique, Entry Level → Proficiency! 」

「Ding! You spent one hundred points of Merit to upgrade the skill: Armor Technique, Proficiency → Mastery! 」

「Ding! You spent one thousand points of Merit to upgrade the skill: Armor Technique, Mastery → Minor Accomplishment! 」
