Human cultivators on Tianlan Continent had different realm classifications. To increase their strength, they had to break through their existing realms.
Normally, the higher one's strength, the harder it was to break through.
As a cultivator in the Returning Origin Realm, Tang Yi had been stuck at the Fifth Order for several years.
After all, not everyone possessed extraordinary talent. For him, the Returning Origin Realm was likely the highest he would ever reach in this life.
Even so, he still wanted greater strength. For most people, the purpose of cultivation was to become stronger.
"I seem to remember that it's been several years since your last advancement, hasn't it?" Xia Tianyu recalled.
"Can't be helped. Talent has far too great an impact on cultivators." Tang Yi smiled as he looked at the Mineral Water in his hand. "If someone had told me before that there were items capable of improving one's aptitude, I absolutely wouldn't have believed it."
For cultivators, talent was something determined at birth, and it was difficult to improve afterward. Anything capable of doing so was one of those divine treasures of heaven and earth said to exist only in legends.
But in Origin Mall, legends had become reality.
There were no quantity limits, no prerequisites, and no outrageous prices.
For just ten thousand Spirit Crystals, one could take home Mineral Water that improved aptitude.
The effects of Mineral Water had been verified by countless customers. Though the degree of aptitude improvement differed from person to person, its effects were undeniably real.
"The degree of improvement from Mineral Water is random, meaning it depends on luck. Are you sure you don't want to drink a cup of coffee before using it?" Xia Tianyu raised the question.
Coffee improved World Affinity. Put more plainly, it improved luck.
