Chapter 94: Are There Any Other Skillsets?
Since I have a venerable elder as my master right now, then I have to seize the chance! How could I just let it pass?
These skillsets that I have just gotten might be special, but they do not match my style well. It would be too pitiful if I had to use great effort to get used to a completely new style.
I am not someone who would do that.
“What type of skillset would you prefer?” Elder Tian Xu took in a deep breath to calm himself down. For the past few minutes, he had been constantly reminding himself that Lin Fan was his direct disciple and that he would need to leave a wonderful and caring impression in his disciple’s heart.
After some thought, Lin Fan decided to cut straight to the point. Look at my mace and frying pan! How domineering do these weapons look? If I could get a more violent skillset, I would become a walking piledriver!
“Master, do you have skillsets that will allow me to gain enormous strength in an instant?” Lin Fan asked.
Elder Tian Xu eyed Lin Fan weirdly. “What do you need them for?” he asked hesitantly.
Nobody would make use of such skillsets except as their last resort because the side-effects were too severe for anyone to shoulder. Elder Tian Xu certainly did not want Lin Fan to spend any effort on such skillsets, as sending his disciple off to heaven was something that Elder Tian Xu never wanted to see happen.
Having someone to care for him when he grew old was another reason why he chose to take in a direct disciple.
“Master, with such a skillset, I will be able to save my life in exchange for some small side-effects when I come across any danger in the future.”
“Disciple, are you suggesting that Master is unable to keep you safe?” Elder Tian Xu eyed Lin Fan angrily.
“Master, you’re a renowned and formidable figure, you can definitely keep me safe, but with such a skillset, I would be able to protect myself when I come across any special circumstances. I hope Master can agree to my request,” Lin Fan said, looking serious. I really need those skillsets!
Elder Tian Xu remained silent. To Lin Fan, Elder Tian Xu was considering his request.
But he was unaware of was that Elder Tian Xu was just trying to figure out which skillset he should give to Lin Fan.
Extreme Wipe Out Body: a skillset that allowed the cultivator to exert strength that was three times higher than normal, but it came with the price of death. No, that won’t do.
Hunyuan Devil’s Heart: a skillset that summoned a demon into the cultivator’s body. It came with the price of having one’s IQ decreased, and the cultivator would turn into a madman who was only hungry for blood. This skillset won’t do either.
At last, Elder Tian Xu finally decided on a skillset. This was the one that he was most reassured with letting Lin Fan have.
Magic of the Seven Gods. Elder Tian Xu had gotten this skillset by chance. It was highly related to the seven spirits living in a human’s seven vital organs.
If the cultivator was able to wake the spirits up, they would be able to exert force far beyond their own power. The seven spirits were: God of Internals Zhongchi, God of Violence Tianzhong, God of Existence Zhidao, God of Earth Baigu, God of Heaven Lingtian, God of Vitality Sanguan, and the God of Rebellion Wuhang.
This skillset would wake up all seven spirits in the cultivator’s body and allow them to exert unimaginable force and gain incomparable strength.
If one managed to wake all seven spirts, they would end up losing their cultivation and become a muggle, but it would not endanger the cultivator’s life.
At the same time, the method to wake up the God of Rebellion Wuhang was missing, so it was impossible for anyone to wake up all seven of their spirits. Thus, even if Lin Fan managed to wake up all six of the other spirits, he would only end up being in poor health for about two years. Nothing else would go wrong.
Thus, Elder Tian Xu said nothing more and threw the skillset to Lin Fan.
“You can try this skillset. This is the only skillset that master has that makes use of brute force,” Elder Tian Xu said. “Oh, this is a special skillset! It’s a treasure of mine! And there’s a secret behind it. Even deities have picked up this skillset.”
Lin Fan took the skillset with suspicion. He did not reply to Elder Tian Xu’s words.
Magic of the Seven Gods!
The title sounded cool.
“Sixty thousand points to learn Magic of the Seven Gods.”
“Yes.”
“Insufficient points.”
I might not have sufficient points right now, but I can still dream.
But from the points, I can tell that this skillset is a tad bit more powerful than the Transformation into God Swordsmanship.
Interesting. Very interesting.
But this isn’t enough. Lin Fan kept the skillset and cackled. “Master, do you have those kinds of skillsets that make your body explode or something?”
“What do you want them for?” Elder Tian Xu stared at Lin Fan weirdly.
“Master,” Lin Fan answered after a short pause. “There’s nothing I plan to do with them. I just hope to learn some of these skillsets. What if one day, your disciple was humiliated and could not escape? I could use an explosive skillset to kill both myself and the enemy! There’s nothing to lose, right?”
“No.” Elder Tian Xu rejected without hesitation. “I have no such skillsets. And your words make Master unhappy. With Master around, there wouldn’t be anyone that would dare to touch you. Let’s not speak about this anymore. Master will take my leave, and you shall return and cultivate hard. If I learn that you’re slacking off, I’ll take action against you,” Elder Tian Xu said unhappily.
“Master…!” Lin Fan called after him, but Elder Tian Xu did not want to continue the conversation anymore. He was taken aback by the terrifying skillsets that his disciple kept asking him for.
Lin Fan sighed helplessly.
I guess I will have to get them on my own if I want skillsets.
But the Magic of the Seven Gods is a good skillset. From the points required, I can tell it’s even more powerful than the Transformation into God Swordsmanship.
Now that I’m broke, I must think of a way to earn points again.
Back in his room, Lin Fan took out another skillset.
Qingxu Taoism Spell.
Comparing it to the Golden Body Tempering Secret, the Qingxu Taoism Spell was obviously of better quality and a higher class, but the cultivator would have to be enlightened by staying focused. It did not have any impacts on one physically.
I have immortality and I always pick up skills that use brute force, so it’s not going to be very useful if I suddenly decide to learn this type of skillset.
It’s a scary thing to cultivate without a fixed style.
Even though the Golden Body Tempering Secret is only a Mortal high-class skillset, I can raise it up to the Mystic level with my talent!
My Mystic skills creation guide book is still waiting for me.
I’ll leave my cultivation at Earth Star Border Stage Two for now. Let me upgrade the Golden Body Tempering Secret to Mystic level first.
Lin Fan sat cross-legged. He took out the small notebook that he used for recording and started his cultivation journey.
In the inner disciple’s residence, Liu Yue was currently boiling with anger. She had never been this angry before. Feng Shaoyun was sitting across from her with a serious expression on as if he was in deep thought.
Suddenly, his face lit up. Feng Shaoyun had an idea.
“Junior Sister Liu, I have an idea!” Feng Shaoyun laughed.
Liu Yue’s appearance might’ve been like a goddess, but there was nothing inside her. She was just like a vase: gorgeous on the outside and empty on the inside. Without a capable sister, she might’ve died already.
“Senior Brother, what idea do you have?”
“Junior Sister, do you remember the reason that he left the sect?”
Liu Yue was slightly taken aback, but she got Feng Shaoyun’s idea within no time. “Senior Brother, you’re smart! He’s going to complete his mission and take part in the inner disciple assessment.”
“That’s right.” Feng Shaoyun nodded. “Elder Tian Xu might be his master now, but it’s not a short cut. How would things turn out if he was still an outer disciple, taking the sect’s rules into consideration?”
“Great idea, Senior Brother.” Liu Yue was delighted to hear Feng Shaoyun.
Seeing Liu Yue’s pretty smile, Feng Shaoyun nearly could not hold himself back anymore, but he did.
