Transcendent-Grade Spirit Root, Senior Sister Mu, You've Changed
Lu Yang quickly opened Qin Nanyue and Mu Yunxue's training plan to check the random task rewards.
[The beauty (Qin Nanyue) has completed a random quest: Learn the basics of the "Heavenly Trace Sword Canon".]
[Host gains: 7000 Universal Experience, 1 Low-Level Puppet Upgrade Card]
[The beauty (Qin Nanyue) gains: Increased Sword Dao comprehension, Intelligence +0.2, Constitution +0.1, Charm +0.1.]
[The beauty (Mu Yunxue) completes the random task: Learn the basics of the "Mystic Edge Tribulation-Transmuting Scripture".]
[Host gains: Universal Experience +7000, Beauty-Preserving Pill *20]
[The beauty (Mu Yunxue) gains: Increased understanding of the Metal Dao, Intelligence +0.2, Constitution +0.1, Charm +0.1.]
Looking at the reward, Lu Yang's lips curled into a bright smile.
Two Universal Experiences totaling 7000 points!
That adds up to a whopping 14,000!
This is enough for Lu Yang to max out his Spirit Root experience bar!
Regardless of anything else, Lu Yang decided to apply this Universal Experience first.
The experience bar for upgrading his Spirit Root was instantly filled, and something within Lu Yang's body seemed to shatter and then be reborn.
After a sharp pain, a warm sensation spread through my body, even more comfortable than soaking in a hot spring.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Yang clearly felt that his ability to perceive Spiritual Qi had improved again.
With each breath, the rate at which Spiritual Qi was absorbed also increased significantly.
However, the improvement was slightly less than Lu Yang had imagined, not even double.
Lu Yang frowned, then, as if struck by a thought, he looked at his Fortune Trait.
[Greater Yin Spirit Body (Spiritual Grade)]
So, it really is Spirit Physique?
Although this is not Lu Yang's own Spirit Physique, but rather something attached to the Fortune Trait, the effect should be similar.
The Greater Yin Spirit Body itself greatly increased Lu Yang's cultivation speed, but now that Lu Yang's Spirit Root has gone from top-grade to super-grade, and hasn't even reached the Spirit Physique level yet, the resulting improvement naturally can't be too great.
Thinking about this, Lu Yang felt relieved.
Although the improvement wasn't particularly significant, any improvement is always a good thing.
Moreover, after reaching the highest grade, one becomes Spirit Physique, after which there should be a significant improvement.
Thinking about this, Lu Yang felt a little better and continued to check the other rewards.
Qin Nanyue's random quest reward was surprisingly a Low-Level Puppet Upgrade Card.
This was something Lu Yang hadn't expected. Although it couldn't compare to Lin Ying's Dao Comprehension Tea Leaves reward, it was still a stroke of incredible luck.
Without hesitation, Lu Yang used the Low-Level Puppet Upgrade Card on Wang San, raising Wang San to the Nascent Soul Late Stage.
This is Lu Yang's reward.
Qin Nanyue's rewards were the usual random rewards from the "Beauty" quest: an increase in her three main attributes and an improvement in her understanding of the Great Dao.
Mu Yunxue also experienced the same improvement.
However, the reward Mu Yunxue gave Lu Yang for this task was actually Beauty-Preserving Pill.
Lu Yang originally had 11 Beauty-Preserving Pills, and with these, he now has a total of 31.
There's way more than you can use...
Lu Yang shook his head, planning to get one for each of his female companions later, and then also for their close relatives.
There are probably quite a few left.
Keep it for later; you never know when you might need it.
After counting the rewards, Lu Yang checked the random tasks that the two women would be given later.
[Random Quest: Without relying on others, venture into the Ancient Yue Secret Realm and obtain a Sword Dao Law Treasure on your own. Reward: Unknown]
[Random Quest: Without any help from others, venture into the Ancient Yue Secret Realm and obtain a Metal Vein Stone on your own. Reward: Unknown]
Lu Yang's expression immediately turned strange.
Good heavens, another Ancient Yue Secret Realm?
This system is quite trendy; knowing that the Ancient Yue Secret Realm is about to open, the random quests for its four concubines are all in the Ancient Yue Secret Realm.
Perfect timing! He had already planned to go to the Ancient Yue Secret Realm with them anyway.
However, I'm afraid I won't be able to help them much at that time; they'll have to search for it themselves.
However, there shouldn't be any problems. After being trained by the Beauty Cultivation Plan, even Jiang Shiqing, who is only at the Qi Refining Realm, should have the ability to fight against opponents of higher levels.
Given their strength, they shouldn't encounter too much danger in the secret realms that are inaccessible to those at the Golden Core Realm.
Even if they were truly in danger, he would still be inside, and with the Spiritual Connection Ring, he could easily save them.
After having this idea, Lu Yang stopped paying attention to the matter.
After thinking for a moment, he used the Sound Transmission Jade Token to inform Qin Nanyue, Mu Yunxue, Jiang Shiqing, and Lin Ying about his plan to take them to the Ancient Yue Secret Realm.
Jiang Shiqing and Lin Ying had already experienced many random missions, so they immediately understood that Lu Yang was planning to assign them a task.
Therefore, Jiang Shiqing and Lin Ying had no doubts whatsoever.
Meanwhile, in the cultivation room, Mu Yunxue, who had just mastered the basics of the "Mystic Edge Tribulation-Transmuting Scripture" and was closing her eyes to feel the profoundness of this Cultivation Method, suddenly felt a chill in her mind. The next moment, she felt that her thoughts were much faster than before.
She quickly reviewed her previous insights into the Metal Dao Principle and the newly acquired "Mystic Edge Tribulation-Transmuting Scripture," and soon felt that she had gained a certain understanding of this Cultivation Method.
In such a short period of time, she found that her understanding had improved again!
Moreover, Mu Yunxue clearly felt her Qi and Blood and qi surging, and her physical body seemed to have improved to a certain extent.
This sudden change caused Mu Yunxue's eyes to widen in shock, her previously calm eyes now filled with astonishment.
This sudden change is not the first time.
Mu Yunxue sensed something was wrong as soon as she began to comprehend this Cultivation Method.
Because her comprehension of the Metal Dao Cultivation Method and Law Technique is much faster than before!
Mu Yunxue was initially wondering if it was because she had eaten the Metal Dao Fruit and obtained the Geng Metal Spirit Physique.
But later she felt it wasn't quite right, because she could actually sense some nearby mineral veins and Metal Dao Law Treasures!
This sudden change was unbelievable even to the indifferent Mu Yunxue.
She guessed that her changes were probably related to Lu Yang.
However, Mu Yunxue did not ask, because she believed that Lu Yang would never harm her.
Moreover, her talent has improved far, far beyond what it used to be.
She didn't pay any attention to that, focusing all her attention on comprehending the Cultivation Method.
However, given today's unexpected changes, Mu Yunxue could no longer ignore them.
She thought for a moment, then got up, opened the door to the cultivation room, and walked out of the room.
Soon, Mu Yunxue saw Lu Yang lying on a recliner in the courtyard, leisurely reading a book.
The warm sunlight fell on Lu Yang, making his languid demeanor even more charming.
The moment Mu Yunxue saw him, a warm feeling welled up in her heart, and her previous confusion and bewilderment immediately subsided.
In the past, if she had to choose between climbing the Great Dao and dao companion, she would have chosen climbing the Great Dao without hesitation.
But now, she would choose Lu Yang without hesitation.
She never imagined that one day she would value men more than the road ahead.
However, Mu Yunxue did not feel annoyed or regretful because of this.
Because she knew that Lu Yang's talent and comprehension far surpassed hers, and that he would support her in climbing the Great Dao.
Mu Yunxue was very content with this kind of life.
Thinking of this, a tender and sweet light appeared in her usually cold and indifferent eyes, and her steps became lighter as she walked towards Lu Yang.
Lu Yang noticed Mu Yunxue approaching and looked up.
He raised an eyebrow, somewhat puzzled. "What's wrong? Is there something you don't understand about the Cultivation Method or the Metal Dao?"
Mu Yunxue shook her head, sat directly in Lu Yang's lap, gently kissed his lips, and then leaned against his chest, saying, "After you gave me the Metal Spirit Fruit last time, I found that my talent seemed to have greatly improved, and it has improved again today. Did you do that?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yang chuckled and gently ruffled Mu Yunxue's jet-black hair, nodding and saying, "I did it. The previous changes improved your understanding of the Metal Dao Cultivation Method and Law Technique, greatly enhancing the power and penetrating force of Metal Dao Law Technique. It also allowed you to comprehend mineral veins and Metal Dao treasures. This time, it will improve your comprehension, physique... um, and your appearance and aura."
He gazed at Mu Yunxue's cool and exquisitely beautiful face, kissed her red lips, and chuckled, "My Senior Sister Mu looks even more beautiful now; I can hardly contain myself."
Seeing Lu Yang's burning gaze and feeling the changes in his body, Mu Yunxue blushed, feeling a mix of shyness and joy, but also a greater sense of panic.
She quickly jumped out of Lu Yang's arms. "No, I need to rest for the night."
Lu Yang was immediately heartbroken. "Senior Sister Mu, you've changed! This is for our cultivation, for the Great Dao! How can you be so negligent?!"
The usually aloof and indifferent Mu Yunxue rolled her eyes slightly and said calmly, "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. When we get back to the sect, have the other sisters keep you company."
