98: Chapter 98 Gold Entry Information

"This spirit suppressing pearl is an Earth-Grade Magic Treasure. It is a pity, however, that this spirit suppressing pearl has long been damaged, its spiritual power leaking out. Now, it only has one last use remaining."

"Although it is an Earth-Grade Magic Treasure, it is already a damaged item; it is somewhat a pity." Qin Changsheng felt a trace of regret in his heart, but he did not pay too much attention to it.

Finally, Qin Changsheng's Divine Sense landed on a Medicinal Pill that was crimson red throughout and possessed thick medicinal efficacy. The pill was surrounded by rich Spiritual Qi. Just by sensing it with his Divine Sense, he could feel the immense medicinal power contained within—that was the High Grade foundation establishment pill, also gifted by Chen Erniu.

"The most critical thing is this High Grade foundation establishment pill."

"With this pill, my chances of successfully achieving Foundation Establishment will increase significantly!"

His Divine Sense slowly retracted, and Qin Changsheng slowly closed his eyes to begin Cultivating.

...

Autumn passed and spring came; in the blink of an eye, more than nine months passed quietly.

In the Outer Sect courtyard, Qin Changsheng was still sitting cross-legged on the Spirit Gathering Cushion, his eyes closed tightly, his expression calm as water, and his aura steady and thick, without the slightest ripple.

Over these nine months, he had cast aside all distractions, severed all unrelated interactions, and focused on bitter Cultivation, absorbing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi day and night, polishing the proficiency of the Level 10 Qi Refining Stage, never slacking for a single day.

The more than 300,000 jin of Spirit Rice in his Storage Space provided him with a continuous supply of Spiritual Qi;

Tens of thousands of Spirit Sand assisted him in condensing his spiritual power, accelerating his Cultivation progress.

Combined with the increased Spiritual Qi absorption Speed from the Burning Life Art, his path of Cultivation bypassed many detours.

Day after day, month after month, the spiritual power within his body became increasingly thick, circulating more smoothly, and the proficiency of the Level 10 Qi Refining Stage was also filled and polished to the extreme during this day-and-night bitter Cultivation.

On this day, the Spiritual Qi around Qin Changsheng suddenly surged violently. The mist of Spiritual Qi originally lingering in the courtyard seemed to be guided, crazily gathering towards his body, forming a visible vortex of Spiritual Qi.

Qin Changsheng's body trembled slightly, and the spiritual power within his body, like a galloping river, circulated rapidly through his Meridians, scouring every inch of his Meridians and nourishing every wisp of spiritual power.

"Level 10 Qi Refining Stage, the realm of Perfection." Qin Changsheng slowly opened his eyes, and at the same time, his gaze turned to the attribute panel.

[trait Draw Count: 1]

[Status: Blood Demon Blood Curse]

However, when he saw the last status column, Qin Changsheng was a little surprised.

He had not expected that the people of the Blood Demon Sect had actually placed the Blood Demon Blood Curse on him again.

But soon, Qin Changsheng understood what was going on.

It must be that Li Hu was very unwilling about losing the Grand Competition championship.

So he had someone place a blood curse on the mysterious person who ambushed him.

It was just that Li Hu did not know at all that this Blood Demon Blood Curse had no effect on him whatsoever.

After checking the status, Qin Changsheng looked at the draw count.

It was now a new year, and he could draw a new trait again.

Qin Changsheng did not hesitate and directly opened the trait draw page.

In the next instant, a translucent light screen appeared. On the light screen, countless golden characters flowed slowly. Every character was an independent trait, emitting a faint spiritual light, mysterious and eerie.

Qin Changsheng slowly stood up, his gaze falling on the light screen, his expression becoming solemn.

He knew that this trait draw was crucial for him.

Now that he had reached the Perfection of the Level 10 Qi Refining Stage and was about to attempt Foundation Establishment, if he could draw a trait that increased the success rate of Foundation Establishment or nourished his Spiritual Root, it would make his path to Foundation Establishment much smoother.

Qin Changsheng took a deep breath, suppressed the waves in his heart, and began to choose to draw.

As Qin Changsheng's voice fell, the light screen suddenly shone with brilliant golden light.

He did not know how much time had passed, but a trait with a gilded body and clear characters slowly emerged from the light screen and floated before his eyes.

[Golden Trait · Intelligence]

A trace of surprise flashed in Qin Changsheng's eyes, and then he looked closely. A gentle stream of information quietly surged into his Divine Sense, clearly informing him of the effect of this Golden Trait. At that moment, even he, who had experienced wind and waves and had a steady heart, could hardly hide his joy and emotion in his eyes.

This [Golden Trait · Intelligence] was not a temporary boost, nor did it directly increase his Cultivation, but it had practical value far exceeding ordinary traits.

One only needed to enter the name of a treasure into one's own attribute panel, and the trait would automatically activate, searching for all target treasures within a radius of a thousand miles. Regardless of whether the treasure was hidden in the depths of a Secret Realm, the lair of a Yao Beast, or hidden and collected by a Cultivator, as long as it was within a thousand-mile range, its specific location, surrounding environment, guarding situation, and all other information would be clearly presented on the attribute panel, clear at a glance.

"It actually has such a Heaven-Defying effect!" Qin Changsheng's heart was full of excitement.

What he most urgently needed right now was to find a foundation condensing herb, but the foundation condensing herb could only be found in a Secret Realm; it was dangerous and hard to find. Even if he knew the general direction, it would take a lot of time to inquire, and he might even have to risk his life.

But now, with this [Golden Trait · Intelligence], everything would be completely different.

He only needed to input the three words "foundation condensing herb," and the locations of all foundation condensing herbs within a radius of a thousand miles would automatically appear. He no longer needed to blindly inquire about Secret Realm news, nor did he need to rashly step into unknown dangerous realms. He only needed to go precisely to the target location according to the panel prompts, which could save countless troubles, greatly improve the efficiency of searching for the foundation condensing herb, and better avoid potential dangers.

He subconsciously urged his Divine Sense to summon his attribute panel. On the panel, in addition to basic information such as his own Cultivation, spiritual power, and Spiritual Root, a new line of golden characters was added — [Golden Trait · Intelligence (Searchable)].

Qin Changsheng's heart moved, and he used his Divine Sense to input the three words "foundation condensing herb" on the panel.

One minute later, a few lines of small text appeared on the attribute panel.

[Target Treasure: foundation condensing herb], [Quantity: 3 stalks], [Location 1: 900 miles west of the Heavenly Sword Sect, in Li Hu's Storage Pouch].

[Location 2: Inner Sect of the Heavenly Sword Sect, in the hands of Jiang Lijuan.]

[Location 3: Inner Sect of the Heavenly Sword Sect, in the hands of Lin Hao.]

Looking at the extremely clear information on the panel, Qin Changsheng's eyes were full of joy.

He had not expected that the effect of the Golden Trait · Intelligence would be so powerful.

He had only input the treasure information for a short while, and such detailed information appeared.

And it was even clear whose Storage Pouch it was in.

"Li Hu!" Qin Changsheng looked at the information on the panel and was a little stunned.

He had not expected that Li Hu was actually hiding 900 miles west of the Heavenly Sword Sect.

Qin Changsheng did not have any thoughts about the foundation condensing herb in Li Hu's hands.

After all, Li Hu was the Young Lord of the Blood Demon Sect.

And there were many experts around him.

Even if Qin Changsheng went, he estimated that he would not have much of a chance.

Immediately after, Qin Changsheng's gaze turned to the second location.

Qin Changsheng was not very surprised that Jiang Lijuan possessed such a Spiritual Plant.

After all, her Revered Master was Fairy Qingling.

It was just that Qin Changsheng did not hold much hope of obtaining the foundation condensing herb from Jiang Lijuan.

After all, Jiang Lijuan stayed by Fairy Qingling's side all year round.

Qin Changsheng had no chance to seize the foundation condensing herb at all.

"Lin Hao!" Qin Changsheng also made a decision in his heart.

That was to seize the Spiritual Plant in Lin Hao's hands.

Lin Hao had always been arrogant and looked down on everyone.

He also liked to bully some low-level Cultivators on weekdays.

He only needed to find an opportunity, and he would be able to snatch the foundation condensing herb in Lin Hao's hands.

Qin Changsheng sat back cross-legged on the Spirit Gathering Cushion, his expression calm, but a thought arose in his heart to further test the efficacy of the Golden Trait · Intelligence.

He already had a High Grade foundation establishment pill in his hand, which could increase his Foundation Establishment success rate by 40%. If he could find a Top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill, combined with the foundation condensing herb, even with a Top-grade Five Spiritual Root, his Foundation Establishment success rate could approach 90%, completely dispelling his worries about Foundation Establishment failure.

Thinking this way, Qin Changsheng's mind stirred slightly. He quietly summoned the attribute panel with his Divine Sense, his gaze falling on the line of golden [Golden Trait · Intelligence], a trace of expectation flashing in his eyes.

"Search for 'Top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill'." Qin Changsheng muttered in his heart, his Divine Sense moved slightly, and he clearly carved the five words "Top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill" into the input area of the attribute panel.
