Wang Da at Peak Nascent Soul

Lu Yang pushed open the door and went inside.

His house in the Lu Household was very simple, with only one room.

There wasn't even a basic Spirit Gathering Formation in the room.

In the entire Lu Household, only the room of the great-grandfather Lu Sheng had a barely basic Spirit Gathering Formation.

Inside the room was only a wooden bed, an old wooden table and chairs, and a futon in the corner that had been worn smooth from being sat on so many times.

However, the room was very clean, obviously because Liu Qing had tidied it up beforehand.

The bedding was freshly aired, the table was spotless, and a few unknown dried flowers were stuck on the windowsill, casting thin silhouettes in the moonlight.

Lu Yang walked straight to the futon, sat down cross-legged, opened the system panel, and began to check the rewards one by one.

[Low-Level Puppet Upgrade Card: Can upgrade a puppet to a higher realm, up to the Peak Nascent Soul.]

"Hiss..."

Lu Yang took a deep breath, his eyes revealing undisguised shock.

It can even upgrade puppets directly?!

If we upgrade Wang Da is at the Peak Golden Core...

He immediately called out, "Wang Da!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a flame silently ignited in front of Lu Yang.

Wang Da stepped out of the flames, knelt on one knee, and waited for orders with his head bowed, expressionless.

The firelight illuminated half the room, casting flickering shadows on the walls.

As the flames died down, the house returned to its usual chill.

Lu Yang looked at Wang Da, took a deep breath, and suppressed his excitement.

He then used Low-Level Puppet Upgrade Card.

The card transformed into a stream of light and entered Wang Da's body.

Crimson flames surged from Wang Da's body, enveloping him entirely.

The flames, thick like magma, flowed slowly across his body, yet they emitted no high temperature or oppressive force.

All the power fluctuations seemed to be isolated inside Wang Da's body, with not even a trace of his aura leaking out.

The temperature inside the room remained unchanged, as if the flame were merely an illusion.

The entire process lasted only a few breaths.

As the flames gradually dissipated, Wang Da reappeared, still with that silent and ordinary middle-aged face, his appearance unchanged from before.

Lu Yang quickly opened Wang Da's panel.

[Wang Da: Puppet Bodyguard Captain]

[Realm: Peak Nascent Soul]

[Fortune Trait: Zhuyan Frenzied Blood (Superior), Fire Manipulator (Middle), Prairie Fire Spark (Inferior)]

[Skills: Nine Yang Heaven-Burning Art (Max Level), Great Sun Gold-Melting Canon (Max Level), Flame Heart Instruction (Max Level), Nine Yang Heaven-Burning Seal (Max Level), Great Sun Gold-Melting Finger (Max Level), Great Sun Divine Palm (Max Level)...]

[Note: The puppet bodyguard is inhuman and lacks independent will; it is subject to the host's will. Please do not use the puppet bodyguard for illegal or disorderly activities!]

[Note: The skills of the Puppet Bodyguard cannot be taught!]

Looking at the panel attributes, Lu Yang felt his heart pounding so hard that his eardrums were buzzing, and his cheeks were slightly flushed with excitement.

Peak Nascent Soul!

Furthermore, the panel attributes have been enhanced.

A new Superior Fortune Trait has been added.

[Zhuyan Frenzied Blood (Superior): Possessing the blood of the ferocious beast Zhuyan, once the battle intent arises, crimson flames blaze across the sky! During battle, physical strength increases by 50%, and the power of Fire Dao Law Technique!]

Upon seeing the description of this superior-grade entry, Lu Yang couldn't help but grin.

That's fucking awesome!

Zhuyan was a ferocious beast of High Antiquity. Legend has it that wherever its blood stained, vegetation would be burned away and nothing would grow for a hundred years.

This entry actually contains the power of the Zhuyan!

Lu Yang has only seen two other high-grade entries so far.

One possesses Steadfast Dao Heart, the other has Alchemical Heart of Clarity.

However, neither of these two superior-grade attributes are combat-related.

This Zhuyan Frenzied Blood is the first high-grade affix that Lu Yang has ever seen that is purely combat-related.

This increase in power is absolutely outrageous!

Combined with Fire Manipulators and Prairie Fire Spark.

This is enough to more than double Wang Da's fighting power!

In addition to the Fortune Trait, there is one more Cultivation Method and one more Law Technique.

The Cultivation Method "Nine Yang Heaven-Burning Art" is a low- Heaven Grade technique, at its maximum level.

The Law Technique "Nine Yang Heaven-Burning Seal" is a low- Heaven Grade spell at max level.

Low -Heaven Grade Cultivation Method!

This must be one of the top-tier Cultivation Method in the entire Eastern Domain, right?

Even top sects like the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect don't have Cultivation Method of this level.

Lu Yang's eyes turned green with envy.

It's a pity he can't cultivate!

He felt that with Wang Da's stats, he should have no problem taking on two or three Peak Nascent Soul cultivators by himself, right?

Absolutely unbeatable!

Lu Yang looked at Wang Da, who remained silent and head bowed, and became more and more satisfied.

With Wang Da by his side to protect him, he would have enough confidence even when facing the top sects of Qin Province.

He composed himself and continued examining the other rewards.

There's not much to say about the Mid-Level Rebate Card.

He also has an Advanced Rebate Card, making a total of two.

If a suitable consumption scenario cannot be found for the time being, we'll just leave it for now.

At that moment, Lu Yang suddenly thought of something.

He opened the panel and checked the records of the passive skill "The Tycoon's Confidence," and found that the Spirit Stones and pills he had just given to the Lu Household had not been counted in the spending amount.

He thought about it and felt that it made sense.

Otherwise, he could have transferred all the Spirit Stones to the Lu Household and then had the Lu Household transfer them back, repeatedly farming rewards in the process.

Although the system is sometimes not very smart, mistaking the cultivation Immortal Realm for a city, it is surprisingly meticulous in matters like this.

However, Lu Yang didn't care, as he wasn't short of Spirit Stones.

He was just rewarded with a full one million Low-Grade Spirit Stones. Including what he received before, he now has a total of over three million four hundred thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones.

That many Spirit Stones are enough to hire that Peak Nascent Soul mercenary.

Of course, now that he has Wang Da, who is at the peak of the Peak Nascent Soul, that Peak Nascent Soul Mercenary Card is not so precious anymore.

He would only be able to use it if he were surrounded by several Peak Nascent Soul experts at the same time.

He turned his gaze to the remaining reward.

Mid-Grade Spirit Vein Generation Card.

[Mid-Grade Spirit Vein Generation Card: When used, generates a mid-grade Spirit Vein at the designated location, providing enough Spiritual Qi for multiple Golden Core Realm cultivators to cultivate simultaneously.]

Lu Yang took a deep breath, the shock surging in his heart was even stronger than when he saw Wang Da, who Peak Nascent Soul.

You must understand that every Spirit Vein is slowly formed over countless years in the world!

Countless sects and Aristocratic Clan have shed blood in the struggle for a single Spirit Vein, and countless Golden Core True Person have spent their entire lives searching for a true Spirit Vein treasure land for their Lineage.

This card can actually generate a Spirit Vein!

Moreover, it's not a low-grade Spiritual Qi node, but a genuine mid-grade Spirit Vein, capable of supplying multiple Golden Core Realm cultivators simultaneously!

With this mid-grade Spirit Vein, and after spending some time nurturing and accumulating it, a genuine Golden Core level power will be born!

Although a mid-grade Spirit Vein is not as precious as High-Grade Spirit Vein at the Nascent Soul level, it is enough for the Lu Household at present.

Moreover, to be honest, if it were truly High-Grade Spirit Vein, Lu Yang might not be able to protect it.

After all, he currently only has Wang Da at the Nascent Soul Realm stage, and once the aura of the High-Grade Spirit Vein leaks out, it will inevitably attract hordes of Nascent Soul Cultivators, which will then cause huge trouble.

A mid-grade Spirit Vein is just right.

With that in mind, Lu Yang no longer hesitated and directly used the Mid-Grade Spirit Vein Generation Card.

When choosing a location, he didn't hesitate to select Eastward Prospect Mountain.

The card transformed into a stream of light and shot into the ground beneath their feet.

The next moment, the entire Eastward Prospect Mountain trembled violently.

The wooden bed creaked, and the paper window frames swayed a few times in response.

Lu Yang felt the whole room shaking, and dust was falling from the walls.

The tremor came quickly and went quickly.

Before Lu Yang could even get up from the futon, the tremors abruptly stopped.

The room returned to calm, and the moonlight outside the window remained bright.

Lu Xuelang's hurried voice came from outside the door. "Yang'er, are you alright?"

Lu Yang got up and pushed open the door, only to see Lu Xuelang and Liu Qing standing side by side outside.

The two had clearly just been shaken out of the house.

Lu Yang shook his head and laughed, "It's nothing. Was that just an earth dragon turning over?"

Lu Xuelang looked somewhat confused, glancing up at the still tranquil mountains and forests around him. "Maybe? But it's strange... I've lived in Eastward Prospect Mountain for so many years, and I've never encountered a situation where the earth dragon turns over."

Lu Yang smiled but remained silent.

He naturally wouldn't explain that this was because he had used Mid-Grade Spirit Vein Generation Card.

This involves the system, and it's his deepest secret, which Lu Yang really can't reveal.

After using the card, the Spirit Veins did not appear out of thin air, but gradually condensed deep within Eastward Prospect Mountain, from nothing to something, from thin to dense.

However, it forms countless times faster than natural Spirit Veins.

At this rate, the Spirit Vein will be fully formed in about one or two years.

At that time, the entire Eastward Prospect Mountain will be transformed into a blessed land, and the concentration of Spiritual Qi energy will skyrocket!

"It's good that you're alright. You should get some rest."

Filled with confusion, Lu Xuelang and Liu Qing followed the gravel path to ask other members of their tribe about the situation. Their shadows stretched long and thin in the moonlight.

Lu Yang returned to his room, closed the door, and stretched contentedly.

The Eastward Prospect Mountain outside the window remained quiet as always, and the cold winter wind slipped in through the cracks in the door, carrying a faint scent of pine resin.

But deep underground, unseen by anyone, a brand new Spirit Vein is slowly growing, like a seed buried in the soil, waiting to sprout in a year or two.

With this blessed land, the Lu Household will surely prosper in the future.

Oh, right!

We also need to set up a protective formation for Eastward Prospect Mountain.

Once Spirit Vein is formed, the changes in the Spiritual Qi in the mountain will eventually be noticed by those with ulterior motives. Without the protection of a magic array, it will ultimately be a hidden danger.

Go back and ask around in the sect to see if there are any experts who are skilled at crafting sect-protecting formations, or you could just buy one ready-made.

Thinking of this, Lu Yang remembered something else.

Wang Er had previously reported that his elder brother, Lu Xiao, had been staying in Green Creek Market for several days and had not yet returned.

Although Wang Wu was keeping an eye on him in the dark, and he shouldn't be in any danger, Lu Yang was still somewhat uneasy.

He pondered for a moment, closed his eyes, and through the puppet link with Wang Wu, sent a thought to inquire about Lu Xiao's current situation.
