Chapter 237: Incomplete Primordial Spirit

For Zhou Ping, who raised his promotion value by 5,000, it was a windfall! However, the 5,000 increase in value was only the lowest of what Zhou Ping had obtained.

What was the most valuable? Of course, it was a primordial spirit! Even an incomplete primordial spirit was still a primordial spirit!

However, the birth of the primordial spirit was affected by the golden technique, which made Zhou Ping have no choice but to consider it carefully.

“What cultivation technique would be above the golden technique?” Zhou Ping’s eyes flashed.

“System, deduce and optimize the “Mysterious Sword Art’.”

A golden technique was good, but wouldn’t something higher than golden technique be better? Zhou Ping was extremely pleased.

“To deduce and optimize the Mysterious Sword Art, it requires a hundred thousand promotion value. The host’s upgrade value is not enough. The deduction and optimization failed.”

“100,000?” Zhou Ping was dumbfounded.

“System, why would it need so many promotion values?” Zhou Ping shouted loudly.

“Unexplained Sword Art is an extremely powerful technique. It’s the peak of the same rank. It’s one of the strongest techniques of the same rank, so it will require a hundred thousand promotion value to improve,”  the system explained.

100,000! This was simply astronomical for Zhou Ping.

“How can I get so much promotion value! System, I would protest against it.”

“After the host reaches the True Qi realm, every time he gains an increase in status, the increase in status will increase accordingly. Please continue to work hard to obtain more promotion value,” the system replied without any emotion.

Zhou Ping was helpless. Since the ‘Mysterious Sword Art’ could not be upgraded, he could only choose one of the ‘Unexplained Sword Art’ and ‘Palm of Tathagata’.

Which one to choose? Zhou Ping chose the Palm of Tathagata without hesitation.

The Palm of Tathagata was both an internal and external technique, and Zhou Ping was able to survive the beast tide because of it. The importance of his body strength was self-evident. Moreover, Zhou Ping was used to using the Palm of Tathagata. Under the same level, Zhou Ping naturally preferred the Palm of Tathagata.

However, before choosing the Palm of Tathagata, Zhou Ping planned to upgrade it first. After all, he had just gained 5,000 promotion values. Only by converting his points into strength would he be able to lay a foundation for obtaining more.

“System, upgrade to the Palm of Tathagata,” Zhou Ping said to the system.

Ding…. “To raise the Palm of Tathagata to the third level, you need 5000 promotion values. Are you sure you want to raise it?” the system inquired.

“I feel that after absorbing Jian Wushuang’s primordial spirit, the system has become smarter.” Zhou Ping cursed in his heart and chose to confirm without hesitation.

Ding… “The third level of the Palm of Tathagata has been upgraded.” The system’s voice rang out.

Without feeling… Zhou Ping had forgotten that he was still in his sea of consciousness.

“I choose the Palm of Tathagata as the birth technique of an incomplete primordial spirit,” Zhou Ping said again.

“The selection is complete. The incomplete primordial spirit is born.”

The moment the system finished speaking, Zhou Ping’s sea of consciousness was filled with golden light.

The golden light covered Zhou Ping’s sea of consciousness, and then it began to condense in the middle.

The golden light didn’t give off any blinding feeling. Instead, it made people feel extremely vast. They contracted extremely violently. In the blink of an eye, the golden light gathered and disappeared.

Buzz…

A great golden Buddha appeared in Zhou Ping’s sea of consciousness. The great Buddha sat cross-legged, one hand flat on his abdomen, the other hand holding a seal on one side. Beneath the Buddha was a golden lotus.

“The Palm of Tathagata is the foundation. Could it be the Tathagata Buddha?”  Zhou Ping looked at the Buddha’s face and was stunned.

The face of the Buddha was exactly like his.

“System, what’s going on? Wasn’t it Tathagata? How could it be what I look like?” Zhou Ping asked the system.

“This is the manifestation of the host’s primordial spirit. Of course, it is the host’s appearance.” The system’s voice rang out.

“This is just an incomplete primordial spirit. When the host is able to completely absorb the incomplete primordial spirit, the host will be able to produce his own complete primordial spirit.”

Zhou Ping listened to the system’s words and thought for a moment. He realized that this was also true.

“What’s the use of an incomplete primordial spirit? “Zhou Ping asked.

Immediately, the system sent a stream of consciousness to Zhou Ping.

“I see…”

After absorbing the stream of consciousness, Zhou Ping finally understood what was the use of this incomplete primordial spirit.

The primordial spirit was everyone’s thoughts, self-awareness, soul, will, and other things. This was something everyone had. However, to ordinary people, their strength was weak, and they had too many distracting thoughts. Not only could their primordial spirits not be condensed, they were also consumed at every moment.

At the same time as they cultivated, everyone’s strength was strong, and their souls, wills, and other illusory existences were also becoming stronger. It was also because the martial artist had less distracting thoughts and purified his thoughts, his soul became more thorough and his will became stronger. Thus, when a martial artist reached a realm, his primordial spirit could be completely born.

Once a primordial spirit was born, a corresponding divine ability would often be born, and it would have all sorts of incredible abilities. In ancient times, there were high monks or daoists who were able to cultivate divine abilities to fend for themselves because of the birth of a primordial spirit. It was like Heaven’s Eye, Heaven’s Ear, God’s Foot, etc. However, because their physical strength was not strong, their divine abilities were often weaker.

For example, the so-called reincarnation of a Buddhist monk was to search for a new body after his primordial spirit exited his body. However, they often fused more than possessed. There were also reasons why their primordial spirits were not strong enough.

The reason why Zhou Ping had given birth to his primordial spirit earlier wasn’t because Zhou Ping’s strength had reached it, but because he had absorbed Jian Wushuang’s primordial spirit. Therefore, his primordial spirit could only be called an incomplete primordial spirit.

“No wonder it’s so powerful. It’s actually only 5000 points higher. It seems that I’ve been able to create such an incomplete primordial spirit,” Zhou Ping muttered.

However, although it was only an incomplete primordial spirit, he did not underestimate its ability.

Although it didn’t allow Zhou Ping to create a divine ability…

Even though it didn’ t allow Zhou Ping’s soul to exit…

It was even more impossible for Zhou Ping to use his primordial spirit to attack people…

Eh? It looked like it was a good-for-nothing?

However, just one function was enough to make Zhou Ping feel that it was worth it.

That was… to protect Zhou Ping from any aura.

More specifically, Zhou Ping would not be affected by the aura of anyone below the Void shattering level, which meant he could ignore all the aura in this secret realm.
