Chapter 6: The Talent Stone Was Not Very Proper

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“A Level-Two Poison Dragon’s Talent Stone?” Mu Feifan’s eyes widened and filled with ecstasy.

The system’s reward was truly terrifying.

Under a hundred times amplification, it was normal for a level one demon beast to become a level two.

However, the ability to directly evolve a Poison Flood Dragon into a dragon was too terrifying!

“It’s possible that this Poison Flood Dragon’s bloodline is very powerful. If it continues to grow normally, it will slowly return to its roots,” Mu Feifan analyzed.

Naturally, he chose the second option!

A strange luster surged from the poison sac and quickly turned into a rare black crystal.

It was the Talent Stone!

To humans, the poison sac of the Poison Flood Dragon was a highly toxic item. However, when turned into the Talent Stone, it could be absorbed at will.

It was easy to love such a considerate system.

Mu Feifan played with the Talent Stone, unwilling to put it down.

The so-called talent was an innate ability that was born after birth.

The talent of humans was their Spiritual Roots, so they could step onto the path of cultivation.

Spiritual Roots contained the five traditional elements:- metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. It also included the three rare elements:- ice, wind, and thunder. There were even more unknown Spiritual Roots that were still to be discovered.

The attributes of a person’s Spiritual Roots determined the corresponding cultivation techniques that would be learned after the Qi Refinement Stage.

However, it did not mean that it was better for a person to possess more types of Spiritual Roots. This was because this meant that your Spiritual Roots talent would not be high.

Unfortunately, most people had the Five-Element Spiritual Root.

True geniuses would not have more than three types of Spiritual Roots.

If they only had one type of Spiritual Root, they would be peerless geniuses. They would have already won at the starting line at their birth.

Mu Feifan was one of the millions of hardworking people in this life. He had the Five-Element Spiritual Roots.

In his previous life, he had not felt complacent because of his status as a rich second generation. Thus, in this life, he would not be discouraged either just because he was ordinary.

“No matter where I am, I will always be the one who won’t admit defeat.

“I want to prove that I’m not inferior to anyone!”

Mu Feifan clenched his fists tightly.

A person’s talent was fixed. It could not be changed after birth.

One could only imagine how heaven-defying this system was.

When the Poison Flood Dragon had returned to its roots and become a dragon, he could not help but look forward to how amazing its talent would be.

At the thought of this, Mu Feifan began to absorb the Talent Stone.

The refining process was very fast. After all, it was a product of the system. The Talent Stone did not have any impurities and was extremely pure.

Mu Feifan closed his eyes and sat cross-legged.

A shocking airflow spread out from his body.

The river water near the highland began to boil and churn. Bubbles popped up one after another like highly toxic substances.

Behind Mu Feifan, a resounding dragon’s roar suddenly condensed into the shadow of a dark Poison Dragon, with a majestic pressure that could suppress anything.

He was not even aware of how much time had passed.

When Mu Feifan opened his eyes again, all the strange phenomena had disappeared.

“You absorbed it all just like that?” Mu Feifan did not feel any improvement in his cultivation.

However, when he spread out his hands, he felt that the true energy that was flowing around could be converted into poisonous gas at any time.

“Did… Did I become a poison cultivator just like that?

“It doesn’t sound very serious.

“Forget it. Survival is the most important thing.”

Mu Feifan placed his attention on the Flood Dragon corpse again. He was careful to not let go of even a little bit of profit.

Thus, Mu Feifan began to loot the corpse once again.

He obtained a set of Level-One Poison Flood Dragon Skins.

System Reward (You can choose) :

One: 100 Sets of Level-One Poison Flood Dragon Skins.

Two: 1 Set of Demon Scale Armor.

“I want the armor!” Mu Feifan finished speaking.

The hill-like Flood Dragon corpse slowly collapsed at a speed visible to the naked eye. In the end, it had transformed into a set of armor and lay quietly on the ground.

The armor was pitch-black in color with shiny scales and was extremely heavy.

Mu Feifan walked over and put it on. The size was just right.

Mu Feifan immediately transformed from a young man in linen clothes to a mighty general.

He looked extremely valiant!

“By putting it on, I should be able to withstand a demonic beast’s attack,” Mu Feifan said.

He took out a bottle of energy pills from his storage bag.

There were only six days left before he would be teleported back. He should focus on his cultivation and increase his strength as soon as possible.

Mu Feifan began his closed-door cultivation.

However, what he did not know was that just a few minutes ago, many torches had suddenly appeared outside the cave in the distance, lighting up the area.

It was Uncle Wan, Da Niu, and the others.

With anxious faces, they had searched the area for a long time, but could not find Mu Feifan.

“It’s all my fault for letting him come to this mountain. What if the demonic beasts have eaten him?” Uncle Wan was so anxious that he beat his chest and stomped his feet.

Suddenly, a dragon’s roar that shook heaven and earth came from the cave.

Da Niu was so frightened that his limbs turned cold. “There must really be a great demon living in this cave. It looks like this little brother is most likely dead.”

Uncle Wan’s heart turned cold.

“Let’s go back, Uncle Wan. When the demonic beasts come out, we’ll all die here!”

Under everyone’s persuasion, Uncle Wan let out a long sigh. Looking at his dispirited expression, he seemed to have aged a few years in an instant.

Inside, Mu Feifan had no idea that the commotion caused by him absorbing the Talent Stone would cause others to mistake him for a demonic beast.

Days passed by. 

Soon, it was the seventh day.

Mu Feifan was still meditating.

The past few days, besides sleeping, he had been taking the Energy Strengthening Pills.

Fortunately, the Energy Boosting Pills could replace food.

Suddenly, a voice rang out in his mind.

The seven-day return time was up. He had obtained the reward time.

System Reward (You can choose) :

One: Stay in this world for 700 days.

Two: Give up on the reward and return immediately.

Mu Feifan’s eyes widened as he suddenly felt his entire body trembling.

What was this?

Could he continue to stay in this alternate world?

For another seven hundred days?

F*ck… What the f*ck?

An ecstatic expression started to appear on his face.

Mu Feifan wanted nothing more than to roar at the sky and slap his chest hard.

For cultivation, other than resources, what else was the most precious?

Of course, it was time!

This was also the reason why the Time Extension Card was so popular even though it was expensive.

It allowed a person to spend much more time cultivating out of thin air.

As long as there was enough time, even if the resources weren’t enough, it could still nurture a mighty figure.

According to what Mu Feifan knew, the values of the Time Extension Card on the market were:- double, five times, and the highest which was a tenfold increase.

That meant 70 days.

And now, he could directly choose 700 days!

“I can take an unlimited number of drugs and have a time increase by a hundred. When the time comes, surely it will be easy to get into a Top 100 University?”

Without hesitation, Mu Feifan chose to stay on.

When he thought of the nearly 1,000 vitality pills in his storage bag, Mu Feifan nodded slightly.

At the current rate of refining one pill a day, it would be enough!

At the moment, Mu Feifan was completely immersed in his cultivation.

As each day passed, many words had been written on the ground.

In the end, Mu Feifan could not even be bothered to remember.

Who cared? Wasn’t there an old saying that time could not be calculated while in cultivation?

Time flew by.

One day, a hunchbacked old man appeared near the cave.

He stood in front of a tall mound of soil.

“Before I knew it, almost two years had passed.

“I’ve never done anything wrong in my life except for what I did to you!”

The old man pulled the weeds away from around the mound, revealing a tombstone.

On the tombstone, there were four big words engraved: Boy Who Exchanged Medicine..
