72: Chapter 72 Sharing of Golden Entries

"Success!" Qin Changsheng's eyes snapped open.

He could clearly perceive that the Spiritual Qi within the Medicine Cauldron had condensed to its limit. The purifying power of the spirit cleansing grass and the efficacy of the auxiliary Spiritual Plants had fused perfectly without the slightest waste. This batch of spirit cleansing medicine had been successfully brewed.

After the medicinal liquid cooled, Qin Changsheng did not hesitate in the slightest. He drank it down.

The medicinal broth entered his mouth with a gentle warmth, devoid of any bitterness. Instead, it carried a faint, refreshing sweetness. Once inside his body, it instantly transformed into an incredibly pure purifying force. Like a tidal wave, it rushed along his Meridians, rapidly spreading to every part of his body.

A gentle yet powerful force instantly swept through Qin Changsheng's limbs and bones. He instinctively closed his eyes, sat cross-legged, and fully activated his Cultivation Technique, guiding this purifying force to surge towards his Spiritual Root.

He could clearly sense that this purifying force was of extreme purity. Wherever it passed, the turbid Qi within his Meridians was instantly cleansed. The Impurities and blockages hidden within his Spiritual Root were also gradually stripped away and purified.

A little over an hour later, Qin Changsheng slowly opened his eyes.

His gaze then turned to the Trait Panel.

[Spiritual Root: Supreme-Grade Five Spiritual Roots]

[traits: Cultivation, Storage Space, External Incarnation, Immortality, Substitute Death, Breath Concealment, Exchange, Sword Heart Clarity]

Seeing his Spiritual Root transformed into Supreme-Grade Five Spiritual Roots, a flicker of joy passed through Qin Changsheng's eyes.

He sat cross-legged on the meditation cushion, circulated the foundational Cultivation Technique of the Heavenly Sword Sect, and began to Cultivate.

As if drawn by an invisible force, the pure Spiritual Qi between heaven and earth rushed towards his body at a Speed several times faster than before. It flowed along his Meridians, swiftly converging into his Dantian, nourishing his Supreme-Grade Five Spiritual Roots and transforming into his own spiritual power.

At this moment, Qin Changsheng truly felt the power of a superior Spiritual Root.

In the past when he Cultivated, Spiritual Qi absorption was slow and required significant mental effort to guide. But now, the absorption Speed had increased severalfold.

A night's time quietly slipped away.

As the horizon began to lighten with the first hint of dawn, Qin Changsheng slowly opened his eyes. His gaze once again fell upon the Trait Panel.

[Cultivation: Qi Refining Eighth Layer (455/8000)]

Upon seeing this, Qin Changsheng was even more overjoyed. After a night of arduous Cultivation, his proficiency had actually increased by a full thirty points!

One must know that before his Spiritual Root advanced, even with the aid of Qi Gathering Pills, spirit rice, and Spirit Sand, he had only managed twenty-five points.

Yet now, without the aid of Spirit Sand, spirit rice, or Qi Gathering Pills, he still gained thirty points.

If he were to add Qi Gathering Pills, spirit rice, and Spirit Sand, the proficiency gain would definitely reach forty points.

At this rate, reaching the Qi Refining Ninth Layer would only take him a little over two hundred days.

...

The days of Cultivation passed very quickly.

In the blink of an eye, ten months had gone by.

Over these ten months, apart from his time in the spirit fields, Qin Changsheng had been diligently Cultivating.

Every afternoon, he devoted himself to practicing the sword, repeatedly polishing every Move—thrusting, slashing, parrying, dodging. Sword light flowed, the wind whistled, and his robes fluttered. Each sword swing used his full strength, each dodge precisely controlled his body.

Day after day of tempering allowed his comprehension of the Gale Sword Technique to deepen, and his sword Moves to become increasingly proficient. From initial stiffness and awkwardness, to flowing like water, and now to the point of effortless execution, he was steadily advancing towards Perfection in the sword art.

When night fell, Qin Changsheng would return home and Cultivate his techniques.

The advantage of his Supreme-Grade Five Spiritual Roots became increasingly prominent. Coupled with the aid of Qi Gathering Pills, spirit rice, and Spirit Sand, the accumulation of his spiritual power advanced by leaps and bounds each day. The spiritual power within his Dantian grew increasingly dense and profound, and the circulation of Spiritual Qi became ever smoother. Each night of arduous Cultivation allowed him to clearly feel the steady rise in his own Cultivation, and his insights during Cultivation were several times deeper than before.

After these ten months of day and night tempering and dedicated Cultivation, Qin Changsheng's Gale Sword Technique had successfully broken through to the Realm of Perfection.

With a simple raise of his hand and a swing of his sword, the sword light was like a sudden storm, so fast it left only a silvery afterimage. The sword's momentum was sharp and imposing, carrying an intimidating edge. Even without relying heavily on Spiritual Qi enhancement, it could easily cleave through solid bluestone, far surpassing the sword art level of Cultivators in the same Realm.

And his Cultivation, under the continuous nourishment of Spiritual Qi and the constant accumulation of proficiency, steadily climbed. He had now successfully broken through to the Qi Refining Ninth Layer. The spiritual power within his Dantian was dense and condensed, and the circulation of Spiritual Qi was completely unimpeded.

Furthermore, a few months prior, the Qi Gathering Grass that Qin Changsheng had meticulously cared for had entered its harvest season.

In the spirit fields, each stalk of Qi Gathering Grass grew vigorously, emerald green from top to bottom, emitting a faint spiritual glow and containing pure Spiritual Qi.

With the blessing of the Cultivation trait, Qin Changsheng obtained a full eleven hundred stalks of Qi Gathering Grass.

After setting aside two hundred stalks to be handed over to Fairy Qingling, Qin Changsheng stored away all the remaining Qi Gathering Grass.

After harvesting this Qi Gathering Grass, Qin Changsheng resigned from his work in the spirit fields and devoted himself wholeheartedly to Cultivation.

[trait Extraction Count: 1]

After reviewing the Trait Panel, Qin Changsheng's gaze fell upon the trait Extraction Count.

It was now a new year, and Qin Changsheng had obtained a new extraction chance.

"Extract!" Qin Changsheng did not hesitate in the slightest.

As Qin Changsheng's words fell, a golden light appeared on the Trait Panel.

As the golden light faded, two golden characters appeared on it.

[Sharing: Golden Trait. Allows the host to share any one owned trait with the External Incarnation. After Sharing, the Incarnation can fully control all the power and enhancements of that trait, with no loss whatsoever to the host.]

Looking at the description on the Trait Panel, Qin Changsheng's eyes were filled with delight.

With this Sharing trait, the strength of his Incarnation, Hu Nan, would receive a significant boost.

If Qin Changsheng shared the Cultivation trait with Hu Nan, then Hu Nan could harvest fivefold yields from planting Spiritual Plants.

When Hu Nan refines Medicinal Pills, he could also obtain five pills.

If he shared the Golden Trait Breath Concealment, then Manager Ma Yingjie and others would find it difficult to detect Hu Nan's Cultivation advancement.

Simultaneously, Hu Nan could also become invisible during missions.

In the future, whenever Qin Changsheng obtained any powerful traits, he could also apply them to Hu Nan.
