1: Chapter 1 Giant Spirit Root System

"Brother Feng, I... I am a little scared..."

Lin Youchu's voice was as soft as a mosquito's buzzing, "Please... please be slower, be gentler..."

The words were spoken intermittently, a hint of entreaty shining through her shyness.

"Don't be afraid. Just think of it as getting an injection; it will only hurt for a second," Chu Feng said in a low voice.

Then.

Lin Youchu's body stiffened, then slowly relaxed.

At this moment.

A translucent light screen suddenly appeared before Chu Feng's eyes.

[Giant Spirit Root System]

[Host: Chu Feng]

[Rank: Level 1 (0/100 times)]

[Giant Spirit Root System Effect 1: 20/10 minutes]

[Giant Spirit Root System Effect 2: Spiritual Root effect increased to 5 times]

Chu Feng froze instantly.

Lin Youchu noticed his abnormality, "Brother Feng... what's wrong?"

Chu Feng regained his focus, and the light screen was still there.

This was not an illusion.

Golden Finger...

Ten years after Transmigration, it had finally arrived!

But Chu Feng forcibly suppressed his joy.

"It's nothing."

Ten minutes later, the number on the light screen jumped from 0 to 1.

Chu Feng rested for a while, then it jumped from 1 to 2, then 3... and finally stopped at 5.

It wasn't that he didn't want to reach 7, but Lin Youchu couldn't handle it.

After Lin Youchu fell into a deep sleep, Chu Feng's first task was to calm his mind and try to circulate the "Basic Qi Refining Technique".

Spiritual power surged from his Dantian and flowed along his Meridians.

Chu Feng carefully felt the speed of his Spiritual Qi absorption.

"Five times the effect... it's real."

Chu Feng opened his eyes and took a deep breath.

The incredibly thin Spiritual Qi surged into his body, giving him a sense of relief like sweet rain after a long drought.

It had been ten years.

Ever since he was detected with the lowest grade Yellow Spiritual Root—and a Five Elements Yellow Spiritual Root at that—he had almost resigned himself to his fate.

Drawing talismans every day with difficulty, Cultivating at a snail's pace, repeating the same cycle, he saw no hope at all.

But now...

Chu Feng looked at the sleeping Lin Youchu, his eyes complex.

This little beggar, who was about to starve to death when he picked her up, had actually become the key to his Golden Finger Awakening.

"Giant Spirit Root System..."

With a thought from Chu Feng, the pale blue light screen appeared before his eyes again.

A very simple interface, but with a huge amount of information.

"Accumulate times through Dual Cultivation to reach 100 times for System upgrade..."

Chu Feng stroked his chin, "The higher the System Rank, the stronger the effect. There are only two effects now; I wonder if there will be new effects after upgrading."

But this Effect 1...

Chu Feng's expression was a bit strange.

This effect is practical for men, but it doesn't directly help with Cultivation.

The key is the second one, the Spiritual Root effect is increased five times!

"Five times the Yellow Spiritual Root, while still not comparable to the Mystic Spirit Root, but if the System upgrades to Level 2, Level 3... could it increase to ten times, twenty times? By then, Mystic Spirit Root? Earthly Spiritual Root?"

Chu Feng's heartbeat quickened.

In this world, Spiritual Root Aptitude determines a person's life.

Spiritual Roots can be divided into Yellow Spiritual Root, Mystic Spirit Root, Earthly Spiritual Root, Heavenly Spiritual Root...

The better the Spiritual Root, the faster the speed of absorbing Spiritual Qi, the faster the speed of absorbing Spirit Pill, the smaller the Bottleneck during Breakthrough, and the higher the future Cultivation limit.

And with a Yellow Spiritual Root, there is almost no hope of breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage, and even with massive resources, it would take several decades.

Chu Feng had now shortened that time by five times.

"However, I must upgrade first."

Chu Feng looked at the 5/100 times on the light screen, "Five times just now; at this frequency, it will take twenty days, but..."

He turned his head to look at Lin Youchu on the bed.

She is a Mortal, with a thin body and malnutrition; I fear she cannot handle it too frequently. What should I do?

Chu Feng steadied his mind and withdrew his thoughts, "Forget it, the top priority is to verify the talisman-making effect of the Giant Spirit Root System."

His gaze fell on the workbench.

There lay the failed protection talismans from yesterday, as well as several pieces of blank talisman paper and prepared Spirit Ink.

The protection talisman, Yellow Rank Low Grade, is the most basic defensive talisman. After activation, it can form a pale golden light shield on the body's surface, capable of blocking one ordinary attack from a Cultivator at the Early Stage of Qi Refining level 3.

Chu Feng had been drawing them for five years, with a success rate of about twenty percent, and each one could sell for three Low-Grade Spirit Stones.

After deducting costs, he could earn one Low-Grade Spirit Stone.

This was his main source of income.

"The Spiritual Root effect increased by five times means that both the perception and control of Spiritual Qi will be enhanced."

Chu Feng picked up a piece of blank talisman paper and laid it flat, "Then the success rate of drawing talismans..."

He picked up the brush and dipped it in ink.

With the tip of the brush hovering above the talisman paper, Chu Feng closed his eyes and focused.

In the past, before drawing talismans, he had to adjust his state for a long time, trying hard to capture the thin Spiritual Qi in the air and guide it into the Spirit Ink at the tip of the brush.

But this time—

"Hum—"

Before the brush tip fell, Chu Feng felt that the surrounding Spiritual Qi seemed to have received a summons, spontaneously gathering toward the brush tip.

It wasn't him struggling to pull it; it was the Spiritual Qi actively gathering!

At the same time.

In his mind, all the details, pattern directions, spiritual power nodes, and weak points regarding the "protection talisman"...

The places that were previously blurry and required repeated pondering were now, at this moment, as clear as day!

"So that's how it is... the turn here should be smoother so that the spiritual power can flow more smoothly; the spiritual power injection at this node should be increased by thirty percent to stabilize the structure..."

Chu Feng opened his eyes, a flash of brilliance in them.

He set the brush down!

The brush moved like a Dragon and snake; vermilion patterns wound across the pale yellow talisman paper, completed in one go!

There was no pause in the middle, the spiritual power injection was steady and even, and the pattern connections were flawless.

Ten minutes later, a complete protection talisman was finished.

On the surface of the talisman paper, a faint golden light flowed, brighter and more solid than any he had ever drawn before.

"This is..." Chu Feng picked up the talisman paper and sensed it carefully.

"Yellow Rank Medium Grade!"

The protection talisman is a basic talisman, but it also has grades.

Yellow Rank Low Grade can block Early Stage Qi Refining, Yellow Rank Medium Grade can defend against Middle Stage Qi Refining, and Yellow Rank High Grade can even resist Late Stage Qi Refining.

Chu Feng had practiced hard for ten years, always stuck at Yellow Rank Low Grade, unable to break through.

It wasn't for lack of effort, but the shackles of the Yellow Spiritual Root meant his fine control of Spiritual Qi could not meet the requirements for Yellow Rank Medium Grade.

But now, a Yellow Rank Medium Grade protection talisman was born in his hands!

"Five times the Spiritual Root effect, it actually even increased Comprehension Ability by five times..." Chu Feng looked at the talisman in his hand, his heart surging.

What does this mean?

He knew it all too well.

It could even be said that compared to the fivefold increase in Spiritual Root effect, the fivefold increase in Comprehension Ability was even more awesome.

From now on, all the arts of Cultivation would be within his grasp.

Therefore.

The System must be upgraded faster.

Chu Feng muttered to himself and turned to look at Lin Youchu.

One doesn't seem to be enough, should I go out and pick up another one???
