“But… why is there a mound… oh, it should be called an underground relic, beneath Qingsong Village?” Qin Muye commented, “Is this to lay the groundwork?”
“No need, no need. Lord King usually just needs to practice cultivation, and if there are any bandits or wild beasts in the future, we hope that Lord could handle them. The rest of the matters do not require Lord’s attention,” the village chief hurriedly explained.
“Besides, how did this thing get its identification system and binding system, and even a feedback system, for that matter?”
“Thank you, village chief, here are my official documents. Please have a look,” Qin Muye said as he took out the documents issued by the Court and handed them to the village chief.
“Does it mean that before coming here, Xiao Fan could elevate his non-mainstream potential to Soldier Level?”
“Since that is the case, then I won’t bother Lord King anymore.”
“It’s just… there’s nothing good here.”
“Correct, Lord King, this way please. We have prepared a residence for you, please do not disdain it,” the village chief said as he led Qin Muye to a fairly nice house.
“So, village chief, what do I need to do on a daily basis?” Qin Muye casually asked, figuring it was unlikely they’d make him work.
“If I had no connection with Xiao Fan, would I never have encountered this thing?”
“Using it could further enhance this Heroic Spirit’s potential, but it’s limited to use at the Soldier Level, meaning this is Xiao Fan’s opportunity?”
“It seems like a heritage-type mound, let me check.”
“Yes, yes, my fault. Tomorrow, Lord King should go to the village government office for roll call and duty, this time…” Seeing this, the village chief naturally explained everything.
“Forget it, it doesn’t matter. Given the difficulty inside this relic, you’d need at least a Third Grade Spirit Summoner to get through, and even if Xiao Fan could kill beyond his level, he’d still need to be Second Grade, and it would take at least a year before he could trigger this opportunity,” Qin Muye roughly estimated the time.
“So I’m quite curious if the mount and knight are using the same system?”
“Lift the left front hoof!”
“Lord King, this way please, we have been waiting for you for a long time.”
“Lord King, your dedication to cultivation is the greatest help to us. I have prepared a welcoming banquet at the inn to refresh you, why not put down your luggage and have a couple of drinks?” the village chief said as he moved to help Qin Muye with his luggage.
“Interesting, it’s an inheritance advancement method for Heroic Spirits, but it’s only applicable for Strategist, Think Tank, and Scholarly Heroic Spirits,” Qin Muye recalled the Heroic Spirit associated with Xiao Fan which indeed was of the Strategist type.
“This… skipping the roll call might not be a good idea, Lord King…”
“This… is this not too good?” Qin Muye certainly had to pretend a bit, otherwise, if he believed the other party outright when they said no work was necessary, wouldn’t that show he had no emotional intelligence?
“This difficulty is not small.”
“If it were Xiao Fan coming here, he might have to engage in a battle of wits with these people, fighting for power and profit.” Qin Muye could sense from the other party’s emotions that they bore no ill will against him but rather were trying to be pleasing.
“How could we skip that? What’s necessary must be arranged. If a superior comes to inspect and someone gets caught slacking, it wouldn’t look good, village chief. I’m here to protect this place, not to polish my credentials,” Qin Muye interrupted.
After all, as a person from the Court and a Spirit Summoner, why would they oppose him? They’d rather cling to his influence than start by thinking he might pose a threat to them.
But honestly speaking, there aren’t many Heroic Spirits with non-mainstream potential, most are actually mainly at the Soldier or General Levels.
However, corresponding resources naturally need to be doubled because you have to provide not only for the person but also for their mount.
Never mind, just smash it. Anyway, Xiao Fan has the Main Character Aura; changing the opportunity is also feasible.
The village chief also hurriedly glanced at the documents and secretly sighed with relief.
Of course, there are many ways to enhance the potential of Heroic Spirits. Apart from methods like this type of inheritance advancement, there are also consuming Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, practicing some unique cultivation techniques, but none are inexpensive.
For those concerned with fame and profit, a Spirit Summoner who awakens a non-mainstream potential Heroic Spirit is truly worthless, but for ordinary people in rural areas, this is already a towering figure. Just having such a person around, not to mention anything else, just putting the word out there would make bandits think twice before coming close.
And then his gaze settled on his Cavalry Heroic Spirit.
Moreover, the connection with him hadn’t encountered any issues yet, which was quite odd.
The two chatted for a bit more, and the Village Chief helped Qin Muye unpack and settle in before preparing to leave.
After all, there was plenty of time, so there was no rush to handle things.
No sooner had he finished speaking than the Cavalry’s mount reacted to Qin Muye’s command.
Luckily, the Village Chief didn’t insist on staying and had to leave first to consult with the major families in the village.
Qin Muye quickly bypassed a series of tests, choices, and various bizarre items before extracting the inheritance.
A Spirit Summoner was not merely akin to a summoner; as the Heroic Spirit grew stronger, it would also feedback various powers and could even bestow the Heroic Spirit’s powers, among other things.
Even if there were some, he could only get scraps.
During that time, he was also invited several times to feasts, but Qin Muye was firm in his decision not to attend.
The Cavalry is a rather special type of Heroic Spirit, theoretically composed of two life forms, such as Soldier Level and higher Cavalry, where in fact, the knight and the mount are two separate entities. If well nurtured, that would mean double the combat strength, which is why they are favored by the Court.
After thinking it over, Qin Muye pondered whether to strike first.
Qin Muye casually stuffed the item back.
Qin Muye ended up with a mediocre ranking because of a mischievous hand.
Upon Qin Muye’s arrival at Qingsong Village, the Village Chief had been waiting for a long time; after all, this was a Spirit Summoner and should not be neglected.
Qin Muye simply shook his head, “Let’s skip the welcome feast, it wastes resources and burdens the people; I’d rather just start my duties immediately. Where should I report daily?”
Qingsong Village was quite a decent village, even richer than some counties, so would they really arrange for a Spirit Summoner in a desolate place?
After the people left, Qin Muye acted more casually.
So, it must have been left for Xiao Fan, could it be left for him instead?
He couldn’t possibly expect a Spirit Summoner to handle these miscellaneous tasks; the village indeed had its defensive forces, and for them, Qin Muye was more like an ace and a showstopper, not someone who would act rashly.
Like the Inheritance Advancement Method, this was a special principle formed after the death of a Heroic Spirit, usable only once and then it’s gone, essentially a disposable item.
Benefits like this were mostly allocated to Spirit Summoners of below-average potential Heroic Spirits, as it settled manpower and ensured the safety of these wealthy villages, killing two birds with one stone.
Otherwise, would they really expel someone for insufficient potential as in the novels? That would be absurd; on the contrary, Less potential makes it easier to win over and form a substantial core force.
For a while, he didn’t know whether this Relic was activated by a supporting character or the Vortex Center. If it was the former, that would be fine, as it meant the item was his, but if it was the latter, things would be bad, and Qingsong Village would be doomed.
The potential level of Heroic Spirits could indeed be elevated, but it also had its limitations, particularly upgrading from a non-factor to Soldier Level entails a difficulty comparable to advancing from King Level to Emperor Level because it was a qualitative change, evolving from mindlessness to intellect, which wasn’t simple at all.
After all, he was a direct descendant; it couldn’t possibly be too bad.
The Village Chief instantly understood his words, realizing Qin Muye was planning to stay. This brightened his eyes; their village had never had anyone with the qualifications of a Spirit Summoner, so if he were to stay, he might lead their village to prosperity in the future.
The items here might be treasures to local Spirit Summoners, but to Qin Muye, they were barely worth mentioning, even bothering to pick them up was troublesome.
With such a big Relic, it could erupt at any time, then it might attract Xiao Fan.
This Spirit Summoner didn’t seem arrogant and having a better disposition would make life much easier for them.
For ordinary people, it would indeed be a normal matter, but Qin Muye was different; he was not human, he needed to figure out how this thing was connected to him.
As for being coveted by others, that was even less likely, for a simple reason: any ranked Spirit Summoner wouldn’t be stationed in a village.
