Multiskilling, Grade B

Little B, are you serious?

Qinghe is still just a child!

And Little C, this is downright inhumane!

Lu Ping wiped his face, sighed wearily, and decisively kicked Little C aside.

Lu Ping chose A.

[You chose A.]

[On the eve of your departure, you summoned Qinghe to her cave abode.]

[Fourteen-year-old Qinghe has grown quite a bit taller, wearing a light blue Inner Sect robe, her demeanor increasingly aloof and refined.]

[You float three piles of things in front of her.]

[Several Random Teleportation Talisman, several Invisibility Talisman, and a Star River Talisman sealing the power of the "Star River Myriad Blades" attack.]

"I'm not in the sect, so keep an eye on things on your own."

[You pointed to these three piles of things, your tone flat.]

"If faced with an unavoidable emergency, use the Star River Talisman to kill, use Invisibility Talisman to escape, and crush a Teleportation Talisman to leave the Cangwu Mountain Range."

[Qinghe looked at the Talisman, instinctively reaching out her hand, but before she could touch it, her fingertips curled, and she withdrew her hand.]

She seemed to have thought of something.

[Afterwards, Qinghe put the items into her Storage Ring and bowed respectfully.]

"Don't worry, Uncle-Master, Qinghe understands."

She looked up at you, a hint of concern in her eyes.

"Uncle-Master, please be careful in everything you do while you're out there."

[The next day, you led your Demon-Catching Squad onto the giant Flying Boat.]

With you, the "Grand Elder," in charge, and given your thorough knowledge of the terrain surrounding the Myriad Demon Domain, this demon-hunting trip has gone exceptionally smoothly.

[You didn't personally engage in combat; once your Spiritual Power reaches the level of your current cultivation level, the Formless Myriad-Breath Cloak will no longer be able to conceal it.]

[In other words, you can only use the Spiritual Power of Nascent Soul Early Stage even at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage realm.]

[In this constrained situation, you naturally won't take the initiative.]

[You only need to stand on the deck and point out the location, Demon-Catching Squad can accurately destroy the Demon Beast's lair.]

[Your efficiency in leading the team once is equivalent to what Wang Guihe and his team achieved in two or three separate instances.]

[Nearly a hundred more Core Condensation Stage Demon Beasts have appeared.]

The Flying Boat returns fully loaded.

[At the Beast-Taming Peak Square, the entire Profound Beast Taming Sect cheers for you once again.]

[For the next few years, you continued to insist that your subordinates take turns leading teams to hunt demons.]

[The Bloodline Reversal Grand Formation of Falling Crow Valley operates secretly every year.]

[The amount of Bloodline Mark in the Storage Ring is slowly decreasing.]

In some years, Wang Tongyou could bring three to five False Core cultivators.

[In some years, not a single person formed False Core.]

[You observe all of this with detached indifference, methodically playing the role of Zhu Wanshan, sending these transformed Demon Cultivators to the Demon-Severing Cliff.]

Finally, in your 29th year, the last batch of Bloodline Mark was exhausted.

[ At the Falling Crow Valley, the dark red Array Patterns slowly faded.]

[The last three rogue Rogue Cultivator their Demonization, their faces filled with ecstatic joy as they kowtowed to you in gratitude, before transforming into Escape Light and flying towards the Demon-Severing Cliff.]

[You stand at the bottom of the valley, looking at the empty Formation Plate, rapidly deducing the nodes of the "《Crow's Arrival》" Grand Array in your mind.]

The time to close the net is fast approaching.

[Options pop up.]

[A: Let's play it safe and wait until my cultivation reaches the Nascent Soul Late Stage before going. You need to be strong yourself to succeed.]

[B: Hehehe, you little Heavenly Demon! Immediately head to Demon-Severing Cliff, activate the Crow's Arrival Grand Formation, and blast Chunwu's Avatar.]

[C: Send a "Payment Notice Regarding the Exhaustion of Bloodline Mark and Subsequent Cooperation Intent" to the Golden Crow Demon Emperor, demanding an advance payment of 3.2 million Spirit Stones, or else immediately report his illegal smuggling activities to the Heavenly Certification Alliance.]

Little B, have you forgotten that back in the Myriad Demon Domain, you only dared to utter the words "Little..."?

Still a mere little Heavenly Demon...

Lu Ping thought Little B was getting too arrogant.

According to the original timeline, the Great Battle of Demon-Severing Cliff should have broken out thirty years later.

So, no rush, let's play it safe.

Lu Ping chose A.

[You chose A.]

You've decided to wait a little longer.

[Anyway, the Bloodline Mark has already been cast. Those spies who have transformed into Demon Cultivators are at Demon-Severing Cliff. When the Avatar of the Golden Crow Demon Emperor will descend is entirely in your hands.]

[Thirty years old, twelve years of work experience.]

[Trait being generated...]

[Congratulations on obtaining the Trait: Multiskilling (Rank B) -- You can easily master multiple skills. Each skill increases your earnings by 20%, and each skill increases your comprehension by 20%. The more skills you have, the higher your earnings. Earnings and comprehension can be increased by up to 100%.]

[Current Equipment Trait (19/19):]

Tier B5: Workaholic / I Love Working / Overtime / Flattery / Workwear Thug

C-level 1: The Workplace People-Pleaser

Should we replace it?

Lu Ping perked up.

Finally, it's not D-grade garbage anymore.

Multiskilling Trait can actually earn you money!

Each additional skill increases the benefit by 20%, up to a maximum of double.

This is practically a tailor-made skill for working-class people.

System, you're so much better than those capitalists on Blue Star who only make empty promises; you actually give out commissions!

The greedy Lu Ping didn't even glance at the Trait about increasing comprehension.

[You replaced "Workplace People-Pleaser (Level C)" with "Multiskilling (Level B)".]

[You eagerly open the panel to check your current skills and calculate how much benefit you can gain.]

[Alchemy Technique, Artifact Refining Technique, Talisman-Making Technique, Formation Technique, Spirit-Infusion Technique...]

[You looked at the last skill, and the smile on your face froze completely.]

[Fake-ID Forging Technique]

Lu Ping: "..."

Are you serious, System?

Answer me, are you serious?

Are you laughing at me?!

Salty Fish, effective.

Lu Ping took a deep breath.

Then, he looked at the panel, flashing a standard eight-tooth smile, and said, "Yes, yes, yes..."

[You recall that the system's custom Trait "Commercial Espionage" perfectly matches your fake identity token.]

You have to admit that forging certificates is a legitimate, system-certified skill.

[Furthermore, even without the Fake-ID Forging Technique, you can still achieve the full potential of being Multiskilling.]

[Eighteen Qi-Gathering Pills and two Qi-Consolidating Pills daily, plus Work Experience.]

[After nine years, your Spiritual Power has finally reached the bottleneck of the Nascent Soul Late Stage.]

[The bottleneck in the Nascent Soul Late Stage is like a water tank being filled ladle by ladle; when it's time to overflow, it naturally overflows the rim.]

[You sat cross-legged inside the cave abode, your Spiritual Power surging like a river, circulating throughout your body in its usual course.]

[A roar seemed to emanate from within, silent yet deafening.]

[His Dantian sank slightly, and the meridians throughout his body widened.]

[You open your eyes, a fleeting glint of light in them.]

[Nascent Soul Late Stage]

[With a flick of your Spiritual Power, a Fire Crow lands on your shoulder.]

[During your years Acting Sect Master, you not only cultivated yourself to the Nascent Soul Late Stage, but also continuously fed the Red-Feather Fire Crows, and even collected a considerable amount of spiritual fire through the Profound Beast Taming Sect.]

[At this moment, Crow-Crow had reached the Core Condensation Perfection, just one step away from Transformation.]

[Crow-Crow's cultivation level is slightly higher than yours...]

Lu Ping: "..."

System Master, yes, yes...

When the system initially assigned him the custom Trait "Commercial Espionage," Lu Ping promised that whenever the system responded with sarcastic remarks, he would always reply with "Yes, yes, yes..."

It seems Lu Ping's persistence paid off.

[You subdued the Red-Feather Fire Crow, concealed your presence, and left the cave abode.]

[There is someone waiting outside...]
