55: Thousand Evolutions Technique

As time passed, Lin Xingyu locked onto a combat technique called the Thousand Evolution Art.

The Thousand Evolution Art was a perfect match for his thousand star gourd.

It was said to have been created by an immortal sword master from another world and was stored in the Deep Space Library.

The Thousand Evolution Art was an incomplete combat technique, very difficult to Cultivate, and no one had mastered it to this day.

It involved the coordination of Mental Energy and spiritual power... Anyway, the introduction was long and convoluted.

“This is it!”

Lin Xingyu didn't care about these things because he had the System.

As long as it suited him, he didn't need to consider the difficulty of learning!

He checked the points required for exchange.

It showed an original price of 10,000 points, now 1,000 points, stating it was for a back-to-school season event.

“Tsk tsk, is the commercial atmosphere that strong?”

“No one has successfully Cultivated it, so it’s probably discounted because no one wants it!”

He happened to have 1,000 points, so he exchanged it directly.

Points were the hard currency of the Academy and could be obtained by completing tasks issued by the Academy.

Points could not only be exchanged for Cultivation Techniques but also for various rare materials.

If he had enough points, he could even ask a Great Master from the Deep Space Academy to custom-make a set of spirit gear for him.

Immediately after, a message popped up on the interface:

“Exchange successful! The Thousand Evolution Art has been sent to your personal terminal, please check it.”

“The Cultivation Technique exchanged this time is protected by federal law; private dissemination is strictly prohibited, and violators will be prosecuted!”

A hint of excitement flashed in Lin Xingyu's eyes, and he eagerly opened his wristband to start reading the content of the Thousand Evolution Art.

Before long, the System's prompt sounded in his mind.

“Ding! Congratulations, host, you have discovered the Thousand Evolution Art. Do you wish to learn it?”

“Yes.”

“Ding! This Cultivation Technique is detected to be incomplete. Do you wish to perfect it?”

“It can be perfected?”

Hearing the System prompt, Lin Xingyu was delighted.

“Yes.”

“Ding! Congratulations, host, you have learned the Thousand Evolution Art. Current Rank: Entry-Level.”

As the System's voice sounded, a large amount of information about the Thousand Evolution Art flooded Lin Xingyu's mind.

The proficiency of combat techniques was divided into: Entry-Level, Proficient, Mastered, Expert, Great Master, and Perfect.

According to the information, the Entry-Level Thousand Evolution Art increased combat power by 2 times.

Proficient increased combat power by 4 times, Mastered by 8 times, and so on... “Done!”

Lin Xingyu rode his phantom motorcycle, left the school, and drove home.

Passersby along the way all turned their heads, many showing expressions of envy.

“Wow, that young man is so handsome, I really want his contact information!”

“Still too young. If I had that money, I'd buy weapons and equipment, not a flashy motorcycle!”

“He looks like an unmotivated rich second generation, even carrying a wine gourd!”

“But, he's handsome, isn't he?”

“No, I'm going to buy a motorcycle too!!”

...The motorcycle was fast, and soon, Lin Xingyu returned home.

He parked the motorcycle in the courtyard and was about to close the door when he saw Grandpa Wang, his neighbor, returning from buying groceries.

“Xiao Yu is back!”

“I heard you got first place in the trial. I really didn't misjudge you!”

Grandpa Wang patted Lin Xingyu's shoulder, feeling very pleased.

However, when he saw the motorcycle in the small courtyard, his face immediately darkened.

He then lectured Lin Xingyu again:

“You've just undergone Awakening, and there are many places where you'll need money, don't waste it!”

“Back in my day...”

...After a long lecture, Grandpa Wang left contentedly.

“This old man, his occupational disease is acting up again!”

Lin Xingyu rubbed his throbbing temples.

Grandpa Wang was a retired teacher.

He strongly suspected that Grandpa Wang was using him for practice.

Shaking his head helplessly, Lin Xingyu returned to the house and used his wristband to notify Wang Le and the other two to come over.

There was still some time before they arrived, so he planned to hatch the Dragon Hawk first.

Lin Xingyu's mind stirred, and he disappeared from his spot, arriving in his Inner World.

Drawing a magic array, dripping in essence blood, activating... After a series of procedures, the eggshell gradually cracked.

“Crack—”

A wet little head poked out from inside, curiously looking around... As the eggshell was eaten, the Dragon Hawk's size gradually increased, eventually becoming as tall as a person.

The Dragon Hawk was entirely golden, with an extremely exaggerated appearance.

“Dragon Hawk.”

“Rank: First-Order One-Star.”

...“Note: A beast with a thin Dragon Clan Bloodline.”

The “little fellow” affectionately rubbed its head against Lin Xingyu, making a peculiar cry.

The Dragon Hawk was still small now and couldn't be ridden.

Lin Xingyu stroked the Dragon Hawk's head and fed it some spirit crystals.

Calculating the time, the two were almost there, so he teleported outside to wait.

Having nothing else to do, Lin Xingyu began to research the thousand star gourd's brewing function.

He poured out a cup of wine and carefully checked the information.

The “Rejuvenation Brew” had the effect of strengthening the body, but the side effect was a bit tricky.

“Prone to making some strange actions.”

“I wonder if Rong Yue made any strange actions after drinking this wine?”

“And Chu Shanhe...”

Lin Xingyu imagined some scenes, which were simply unbearable to look at.

He shook his head, erasing the images from his mind.

“It's better not to appear before them these next few days!”

After some thought, Lin Xingyu made a decision.

“Oh, right, the spirit spring water has a purifying effect!”

Thinking of this, he immediately poured spirit spring water into the thousand star gourd.

Shaking it up and down.

Before long, a rich fragrance wafted out from within.

He poured out a little spirit brew and checked the information again.

“nourishing spirit wine.”

“Properties: Replenishes spiritual power, enhances Physique, expels Impurities.”

“Note: Special spirit brew undergoes a qualitative change after adding spirit spring water. Long-term consumption will produce incredible effects.”

“The side effect is gone!”

Seeing this information, Lin Xingyu felt relieved.

He took a small sip; it was sweet and refreshing.

As the wine entered his stomach, a gentle energy spread throughout his body.

All fatigue was swept away.

At the same time, an energy slowly surged within his body, gradually improving his Physique.

“It's quite comfortable; I can drink this long-term.”

Lin Xingyu nodded.

He'd put something fizzy in it later; he still liked the burping sensation of happy water... Before long, Wang Le and the other two arrived in a rush.

“Brother Yu, what's up? So mysterious?”

As soon as he entered the room, Wang Le couldn't wait to ask.

Lin Xingyu took out two apostle fruits and handed them over:

“These are apostle fruits. After eating them, you will become Apostles, and from then on, you will be absolutely loyal to me...”

However, before Lin Xingyu could finish speaking.

Wang Le pouted, casually tossed the fruit into his mouth, and swallowed it in one gulp.

Wang Chiyao's face was flushed red, as if she had thought of something, and she lightly spat before also putting the fruit into her mouth.

“Hey, hey, hey, I haven't finished speaking yet!”

This left Lin Xingyu bewildered.

What kind of reaction was that?

Was it that casual?

I even told you the drawbacks, and you didn't even consider it?

...In the Inner World.

Wang Le and Wang Chiyao stared blankly at the scene before them.

“Holy crap...”

Wang Le opened his mouth wide and only managed to squeeze out a sentence after a long time.

“Brother Yu, what kind of ability is this?”
