Chapter 57: Chapter 57 Profession Level LV.8

"Turns out, the Shield Value in the data panel came from here, huh? I wondered how I checked three skills and didn’t find a single thing related to it."

Zhang Yanhang had always thought the Shield Value in the data panel might be associated with the ’Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil’ Skill. Instead, it turned out to be the Skill Effect of ’Technique Immunity.’

"Furthermore, this Skill description is really long, unprecedentedly detailed—it’s so conscientious. It’s great to see so many details marked about a major skill. Finally, I don’t need to grope around for how to use it on my own."

If possible, Zhang Yanhang wished the effect descriptions of his Multiple Choice Talent were as rich as Technique Immunity because relying solely on his exploration to figure out methods of use was indeed too troublesome.

"Now that I’ve gone through all the Skill Effects, next I should level up." Zhang Yanhang now had a total of 7,200 Soul points. Even if he wanted to level up to LV.10 all at once, it wouldn’t be a problem at all.

[Do you wish to use 600 Soul points to raise Profession Level to LV.7?]

"Profession Level? Wasn’t it always just plain Level before? Could it be that because I’ve just become a Heavenly Destiny Master, the Level automatically converted to Profession Level? Whatever, it doesn’t seem to make much difference. Let’s level up anyway. Yes, raise Profession Level to LV.7."

It was just a minor name change, but since the upgrade requirements hadn’t changed, Zhang Yanhang didn’t really care.

[Profession Level successfully raised to LV.7, Free attribute points +6.]

"As expected, from now on, I can get 6 free attribute points per level. This is just fantastic." After completing the level up, Zhang Yanhang glanced at the requirements for the next Level.

[Name: Zhang Yanhang (First Tier)]

[Race: Human]

[Profession: Heavenly Destiny Master]

[Level: LV.7 (0/700)]

[Soul points: 6600]

"Not surprisingly, it still only needs 700 Soul points. Then, let’s continue leveling up, especially since there are still plenty of Soul points." Zhang Yanhang said this while clicking to level up.

[Do you wish to use 700 Soul points to raise Profession Level to LV.8?]

"This is what it feels like to be rich in Soul points, being able to level up at will, how nice. Yes, raise the Profession Level to LV.8." As many Soul points as Zhang Yanhang had, he reckoned there wouldn’t be much left after leveling up.

[Profession Level successfully raised to LV.8, Free attribute points +6.]

"Automatically completing 12 attribute points before, and adding the 12 attribute points I got from these two level-ups, I now have a total of 24 attribute points in hand. In the past, I needed to level up 6 times to obtain this many." After a brief moment of reflection, Zhang Yanhang looked at the requirements for the next level.

[Name: Zhang Yanhang (First Tier)]

[Race: Human]

[Profession: Heavenly Destiny Master]

[Level: LV.8 (0/800)]

[Soul points: 5900]

Looking at the leveling requirements in front of him, Zhang Yanhang suddenly remembered something, "But wait, it shouldn’t be just Levels that can be upgraded, right? Shouldn’t Skills be able to be upgraded too? Otherwise, why would there be ’Skill Level’ marked?"

Once this idea was born, it began to spread wildly in Zhang Yanhang’s mind like wildfire, "Should I try? After all, the worst that could happen from trying is consuming some Spiritual Energy."

"In that case...choose! Skill Level Enhancement!" Zhang Yanhang used the active choice for the third time. Just like the second time, Time Pause was triggered successfully, and some unfamiliar text boxes appeared in front of him.

[Would you like to perform Skill Level Enhancement?]

[Option One: ’Gun Master LV.1’ upgrade to ’Gun Master LV.2’ (consumes 50 Soul points.)]

[Option Two: ’Fighting Master LV.1’ upgrade to ’Fighting Master LV.2’ (consumes 50 Soul points.)]

[Option Three: ’Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil LV.1’ upgrade to ’Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil LV.2’ (consumes 50 Soul points.)]

[Option Four: ’Technique Immunity LV.1’ upgrade to ’Technique Immunity LV.2’ (consumes 50 Soul points.)]

[Option Five: ’Limitless Universe Skill LV.2’ upgrade to ’Limitless Universe Skill LV.3’ (consumes 30 Soul points.)]

[Option Six: ’Alchemy [Incomplete]’ upgrade to ??? (Cannot be enhanced)]

"It turns out Skills really can be enhanced..." Disregarding Option Six, which stated the ’Alchemy [Incomplete]’ couldn’t be enhanced, Zhang Yanhang started considering which specific option to upgrade. First and foremost for him was Limitless Universe Skill, followed by Technique Immunity, and then came the rest: Gun Master, Fighting Master, and Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil.

But before making a final choice, Zhang Yanhang wanted to review the Skill Effect of Limitless Universe Skill again.

[Limitless Universe Skill LV.2 (Passive/Active)]

[Passive effect: Strength +1, Agility +1, Constitution +1, Intelligence +1, Charm +1.]

[Active effect: Activate the technique to use Spiritual Energy to enhance defensive power, Attack Power, and Movement Speed. No cooldown time; energy consumption varies based on specific enhancement effects.]

[Additional attributes: First Tier — Strength +2, Agility +1, Constitution +1, Intelligence +2.]

Since Limitless Universe Skill was mentioned, it is worthwhile to talk about Zhang Yanhang’s Cultivation path thus far.

First was the five months of Cultivation he had done before. He had always been practicing the Heaven and Earth Creation Technique, a technique tailored for ordinary people, modified by Imperial Elders to be extremely adapted to modern society.

Allowing cultivators to perfectly use fragmented time for Cultivation and be unbound by environmental and postural constraints, even a certain degree of distraction wouldn’t interfere with the operation of Heaven and Earth Creation Technique.

Many cultivators often used fragmented moments such as riding a bus, defecating, napping, before getting up in the morning, and before going to bed at night for Cultivation. Concerned about the specific Cultivation time? There was even less need to worry about that.

Because the Empire wanted to ensure that even ordinary people without any Cultivation Talent could practice without affecting their work, it strictly limited the daily Cultivation time to within two hours.

The original technique allowed for twenty-four hours of continuous Cultivation a day, but that would make it impossible to work. Therefore, the Empire sacrificed four hours of Cultivation time, ensuring that the efficiency of the compressed two hours was ten times that of the original. In other words, cultivating for two hours a day was equivalent to twenty hours of intensive practice.

Moreover, an even more extreme adaptation to ordinary people was that the Empire had set a lower Cultivation threshold. Even someone with the poorest Cultivation Talent could guarantee at least one hour of practice a day, equating to ten hours of intense Cultivation.
