Chapter 12
“Squeak! Squeak-ya~”
The summer cicadas’ hoarse chirping rose and fell from the willow trees along the path.
It was irritating.
Wang Dust, who was searching in the spirit field with the scorching sun on his head, was still in a good mood.
Removing the ground rhinoceros was actually a very hard and boring job.
This work required total concentration, caution, experience, and even more, outstanding skill.
Search, target, kill ……
Repeated over and over again, it was a great test for the divine soul, mana and will.
And what supported Wang Dust to maintain a good working mindset all the time was besides the benefits that came from finishing off the Earth Rhinoceros.
The main thing was undoubtedly the increase in skill and human virtue points!
[Gungjin Finger – Experience +1]
[Gungjin Finger (Proficient): 198/200]
198 points now!
Wang Dust clenched his fists hard and pressed down on his inner excitement.
At the same time, he strongly resisted the urge to empty the Gungjin Finger once to make up the last upgrade point.
Mana was precious and should not be wasted.
He took a long, deep breath and maintained his focus as he continued to search for the Earth Rhinoceros lurking in the Spirit Field.
The current Wang Chen was able to create a deeper and more detailed resonance with the Spirit Rice in the Spirit Field.
This kind of resonance that did not belong to the realm of skills allowed him to quickly lock onto where his target was.
Efficiently completing his work.
Moreover, Wang Chen realized that the longer the resonance between him and the spirit rice, the sharper and clearer his perception became.
In such a state that could be described as subtle, another Earth Rhinoceros was scouted by Wang Dust.
This Earth Rhinoceros was very special.
It wasn’t lying on a rice stalk, but was lurking in the middle of the mud layer underneath a spiritual rice plant.
It was quietly hibernating.
This was the first time Wang Chen had discovered an Earth Rhinoceros inside the mud.
And this Earth Rhinoceros brought him a hint of threat.
Demonized Earth Rhinoceros!
Wang Dust’s eyes immediately lit up.
Without thinking, he raised his right hand and gathered 90% of his mana in his sword finger.
It steeply stabbed down towards the ground five paces away!
The powerful Geng Jin Qi energy pierced into the soil in an instant, piercing through the dormant Demonized Earth Rhino.
[Gung Jin Finger – Experience +1]
[Human Virtue +1]
[Divine Soul +1]
Eh?
A series of message prompts caused Wang Chen to freeze.
The increase in Gungjin Finger’s skill points and Human Virtue points was undoubtedly expected.
The increase in [Divine Soul] by 1 point was something he had not expected at all.
It was a completely unexpected surprise!
While feeling pleasantly surprised, Wang Chen guessed that this was most likely the effect of his constant stimulation of his Spiritual Sense, frequently resonating with the Spiritual Rice, and thus hammering his divine soul.
The divine soul was obviously the same as the physical body, and could be improved through exercise!
His divine soul attribute had now reached 3 + 7 points.
Actually, Wang Chen had always wondered.
Why, within his four basic attributes, the Divine Soul Attribute was displayed in such a unique way.
Was it because of Soul Piercing?
Shaking his head, he didn’t think about this in detail.
Because there were more important things.
Adding points!
Licking his dry lips, Wang Dust exhaled the Immortal Cultivation Panel.
His attention locked onto the skill bar and clicked on the + sign behind [Gungjin Finger (Proficient): 199/200]!
The number of Human Virtue Points instantly decreased by 1 point.
[Gungjin Finger (Minor Adept): 0/300]
Hahaha!
Wang Dust wanted to let out a loud laugh.
This kind of open-ended boost really shouldn’t be too pleasurable!
With any spell, the higher the level, the harder it was to break through the bottleneck.
Although the Gungjin Finger belonged to the ordinary basic class of spells, at least nine out of ten Spirit Planters had mastered it.
However, those who could raise this spell to the Proficient level.
I’m afraid there are only two or three out of ten – the limitations of root bones and enlightenment!
Wang Chuan had poor bones and low enlightenment.
His brain is labeled “mediocre”.
In fact, mediocre people like him are the main population of Yunyang Sect’s outer disciples.
A few cultivation seedlings with good bones and outstanding enlightenment.
Either they died at an early age.
Either they were recruited by the inner sects and clans.
Who would be a spiritual plant husband in the ground!
Moreover, in order to avoid damage to the meridians, old spiritual planters like Old Sun Tou didn’t dare to easily display the Gengjin Finger even if it was cultivated to perfection.
If you use it sparingly, how can you further improve?
If there was no Immortal Cultivation Panel.
With Wang Chen’s original talent qualifications, the Proficient level Gung Jin Finger would have reached the top.
Now it was easy to break through to the minor achievement realm.
It was tantamount to going against the grain!
“Wang Chen? Little brother Wang dust!”
The call from behind him brought Wang Dust back to his senses.
He turned around and waved his hand at a burly man standing on the ridge, “Brother Tie Niu, I’m fine.”
This cropper named Wang Tieniu was a neighbor of Old Lu’s family and planted twenty-seven acres of spirit fields.
It was also the second customer that Old Sun Tou had pulled in for Wang Dust.
Wang Tie Niu looked up at the hot sun and greeted, “It’s too hot, take a break and drink some water first.”
Wang Tieh Niu’s character was quite naive.
Although he was worried about the pests in the fields, he was embarrassed to use Wang Dust as a cow or horse.
He also admired Wang Dust’s pest removal methods.
Wang Chen thought about it and agreed.
He did need to recover his physical strength and mana.
Going up and digging out the Demonized Ground Rhinoceros in the layer of mud, Wang Dust came to rest under the shade of a tree by the side of the road.
He took out the spirit rice balls he made last night from his storage bag.
He devoured it with the mountain spring water in the gourd.
The homemade rice ball was full of ingredients, and it was wrapped with full of saut茅ed bug meat, as well as chopped salted vegetables.
A mouthful of oil, salty, sweet and savory.
Because Wang Duan used broad thorn leaves to wrap the rice ball, so the rice grains with a hint of grass and wood fragrance.
It is ten times better than the free goods sent by Old Sun Tou!
As Wang Tieniu next to him watched, he couldn’t help but gulp.
“Brother Tieh Niu, you taste it too.”
Wang Dust generously gave him a rice ball.
“Thanks.”
Wang Tieh Niu smiled with open brows and became very fond of Wang Duan.
He originally knew Wang Duan as well.
But there wasn’t much interaction.
And in Wang Tieh Niu’s impression, Wang Chen was just an ordinary teenager with a pitiful background and honest introversion.
The current Wang Chen really impressed him!
A spirit rice ball quickly shortened the distance between the two parties.
It quickly became familiar.
“Little brother Wang ……”
Wang Tieniu stuck out his tongue and rolled the rice grains stuck to his upper lip into his mouth, smacked his lips and said, “If anyone dares to bully you in the future, you can report my name!”
Wang Duan smilingly handed over another rice ball, “Good.”
It was natural for friends to get more and more.
Wang Tieniu was tall and porous, and his cultivation had reached the sixth level of Qi Practicing.
With his age, he was very hopeful of breaking through to the higher level of Qi Practicing.
In a ten-mile radius, Wang Tieh Niu is also a figure.
Wang Chen knew that he had a bold character and was very filial to his mother.
He was a true man who was worth befriending!
In the face of the rice ball that Wang Chuan served again, Wang Tieh Niu, who had not yet eaten his fill, scratched his head in embarrassment.
His right hand, however, picked it up without listening to his command.
Ding bell~
It was at this time that the crisp copper bell rang into Wang Dust’s ears.
He subconsciously looked in the direction the sound came from.
Only to see a traveling merchant carrying a box and cage appear at the fork in the path in front of him.
