Working from Home, S-Rank! Wherever You Are, That's Your Workstation!
[You replaced "Workwear Thug (Level B)" with "Passive Income (Level B)".]
[Noon on the second day.]
[You scanned the Storage Ring with your Divine Sense, and more than 150 Low-Grade Spirit Stones appeared out of thin air.]
[You calculated it; just from this Passive Income alone, you're making over four thousand Spirit Stones every month.]
Lu Ping looked at the number and clicked his tongue twice.
What is financial freedom? This is it. Just by lying in bed, you can earn more than a monthly income of three thousand.
If this were Tomato Chinese sports website), it would be no problem to receive not only a regular Perfect Attendance Bonus, but even the most demanding excellent Perfect Attendance Bonus.
With this Trait, you could just lie down and relax if you went back to Blue Star.
[You calm your mind and begin planning your grand farming endeavor.]
[The original version of the Creation Spirit-Promoting Dew has extremely high requirements for its main ingredient; you currently simply don't have the resources to cultivate it.]
[But the "Lesser Creation Spirit-Stimulating Dew" that you derived through Reverse Engineering has 80% of the original's effects, and it's only a top-grade Pills. Most importantly, the main ingredient only needs to be aged for a hundred years.]
The main ingredient in the Lesser Creation Spirit-Stimulating Dew is the Thousand-Whisker Spirit-Luring Grass.
[This medicinal herb can grow ten tendrils a year, and a thousand tendrils after a hundred years, before it can be used as medicine.]
[Its most difficult aspect to care for is that when its thousands of tendrils fully grow, it's like a fleeting moment, withering rapidly within a few hours. After withering, its Spiritual Qi dissipates into the surrounding soil, having a good effect on stimulating the spiritual energy of other Spirit Plants.]
Therefore, the Thousand-Whisker Spirit-Luring Grass must be harvested and refined immediately, as it is almost impossible to store or transport it.
Fortunately, Great Forest Temple has a rich heritage, and the seeds of this rare and precious herb are found within its walls.
[You had Wuming help you exchange for a batch of Thousand-Whisker Spirit-Luring Grass seeds, as well as some seeds for auxiliary medicines.]
[You carefully planted the grass seeds in the Herb Garden of your cave abode.]
[You even went so far as to learn a high-level Spirit Plant Technique, the Yi Wood Nine-Turn Spirit-Nurturing Art.]
[You began a regular life of farming, alchemy, and cultivation.]
[In your spare time, continue to deduce the Earth Grade Poison Pill that targets Spirit Transformation monsters.]
[That battle with Gu Wusuan made you realize that the Spirit-Chaos Lure and Spirit-Winding Thread are severely insufficient to kill Spirit Transformation cultivators. You must have a trump card that can deliver a fatal blow.]
However, developing new drugs is several times more difficult than Reverse Engineering existing Pill Formulas.
Fortunately, you're making rapid progress in farming.
[With the Yi Wood Nine-Turn Spirit-Nurturing Art, and the added benefits of "Artisan Spirit" and "Cost Reduction and Efficiency Improvement," when you drop a drop of Creation Spirit-Promoting Dew, the original tenfold growth rate is abruptly increased to fifteenfold.]
[In just eight months, the Thousand-Whisker Spirit-Luring Grass in the spirit field grew one hundred tendrils.]
[You secretly estimate that the effects of a drop of the Spirit-Inducing Dew will last for about a year.]
Unfortunately, the multiple benefits of "Multiskilling" and "Overtime" do not contribute to the natural growth of plants.
You can only sigh inwardly.
[Thirty-two years old, fourteen years of work experience.]
[Trait being generated...]
[Congratulations on obtaining the Trait: Work from Home (Level S) -- Your workplace is wherever you are! This Office Trait applies regardless of the environment. Of course, the prerequisite is that you have a job.]
Should we replace it?
Lu Ping's eyes widened when he saw this Trait.
System, are you performing magic?
What you lack, you get!
Lu Ping wished he could kowtow to the system on the spot.
He even suspected that the system might have ulterior motives towards him, otherwise why would it keep producing such top-tier, god-like Trait for two years in a row?
With Work from Home, as long as he's in his cave abode, this is his workstation! What need is there for a position at Great Forest Temple?
Moreover, workstations?
Lu Ping recalled a Trait that had been gathering dust in the Trait for a long time.
He quickly searched through the Trait.
Found it! Your "Exclusive Workstation" is perfect!
Exclusive Workstation (Level B): Work efficiency is doubled at your own workstation, but there is a chance of having a small deduction in wages if you leave your workstation.
Now that all the workstations are welded shut, there's no possibility of being penalized.
[You decisively overhauled the Trait.]
[You replaced "Commercial Espionage (Grade A)" with "Work from Home (S-level)". Anyway, you don't need to disguise yourself and infiltrate other sects now.]
[You replaced "Passive Income (Level B)" with "Growing Flowers at the Workstation (Level B)".]
[You replaced "Friend of Women (Grade A)" with "Exclusive Workstation (Level B)".]
[Current Equipment Trait (19/19):]
S-level *5: Heavy Tomato User / Salty Fish user/ I'm the Client / Reverse Engineering / Work from Home
Grade A *7: I’ll Make Three Points: / Early Leave / Artisan Spirit / Cost Reduction and Efficiency Improvement / Quality Sleep / Bully at Home / Work Experience
Grade B * 7: Workaholic / I Love Working / Overtime / Multiskilling / Flattery / Growing Flowers at the Workstation at my desk/ Exclusive Workstation]
[With the added convenience of Growing Flowers at the Workstation and Work from Home, you finally understand what it means to farm like a pro.]
[You drop another drop of the Creation Spirit-Promoting Dew.]
[The growth rate of the Thousand-Whisker Spirit-Luring Grass has increased thirtyfold!]
[The spiritual herbs that originally took a hundred years to mature can now be harvested in just over three years.]
[In the small garden, digging and digging...]
[Your days are extremely regular: farming, alchemy, and cultivation.]
[You will now use two Qi-Consolidating Pills instead of Qi-Gathering Pills each day, plus the sixty points of Spiritual Power gained from your daily Work Experience.]
[You estimated that at this rate, you'll reach the Nascent Soul Perfection in about fifteen years.]
[Thirty-three years old, fifteen years of work experience.]
[Trait being generated...]
[Congratulations on obtaining the Trait: The Boss's Empty Promise (Level D) -- Promises made to you by someone of a higher level have a 99% chance of not being fulfilled.]
Lu Ping stared blankly at the line of words on the panel, his eyes wide, a strange tightness in his chest.
Workplace PTSD flared up on the spot.
"Tongzi, you have no heart..."
Lu Ping rubbed his temples and couldn't help but sigh.
It's only been two years. They had just given him a taste of the Work from Home, and now they've thrown a hard, rough pie in his face.
Salty Fish, effective.
Lu Ping flashed his standard eight-tooth smile once again.
The system may torment me a thousand times, but I will still love it As-If-First.
[You refused to change it.]
[The system seems to have entered another period of consistently producing low-quality Trait; you were prepared for this.]
[This year, after countless failures and deductions, you finally completed the research and development of the Earth Grade Poison Pill.]
[You named this Poison Pill, specifically designed to target Spirit Transformation and even Void Refining monsters, "Wan Shen Xiao".]
[This poison retains the colorless and odorless characteristics of the Spirit-Winding Thread, specifically targeting the Primordial Spirit. Once contaminated, the Primordial Spirit is trapped, and the more its Primordial Spirit Power is stimulated, the faster the poison takes effect, ultimately destroying the Primordial Spirit completely.]
[However, as a low-grade Pills, the main ingredient for this Earth Grade Spirit-Binding Gauze is extremely rare. Even with your wealth, you could only barely gather three portions of the herbs.]
[You calmed your mind and began refining the elixir.]
[Work from Home, effective.]
[The Artisan Spirit is now in effect.]
[Cost Reduction and Efficiency Improvement, effective.]
[Workaholic, effective.]
[I Love Working, effective.]
[Overtime, effective.]
[Multiskilling, effective.]
[Exclusive Workstation, activated.]
[Four times the efficiency, four times the profit.]
[With the blessing of the Trait, it actually produced a batch of sixteen pills, three portions of medicinal herbs, and a total of forty-eight portions of the Spirit-Binding Gauze.]
[You looked at the forty-eight bottles of Earth Grade Poison Pills, enough to dissolve the primordial Primordial Spirit Transformation, tapped the edge of the jade box containing the Jade Bottles twice with your fingers, and sighed.]
"It's still not enough..."
[You think that if you want to thoroughly "marinate" an entire area, creating a deadly Integrated Body Great Talent cultivator at the Fusion Realm severely injured, this quantity is ultimately a bit lacking...]
Lu Ping was speechless upon seeing this.
Even he couldn't tell whether his simulated self was getting cocky or just chickening out...
[Thirty-four years old, sixteen years of work experience.]
