Mortuary, room.

[Ding! Host consumed 100 Skill Points, Five Thunders Spell upgraded from Beginner to Minor Accomplishment!]

[Ding! Host consumed 500 Skill Points, Five Thunders Spell upgraded from Minor Accomplishment to Major Accomplishment!]

[Ding! Host consumed 1000 Skill Points, Five Thunders Spell upgraded from Major Accomplishment to Grand Perfection!]

"No way, man!"

Lin Fan's eyes lit up, stunned by the voice in his mind.

He never imagined that one skill point per second was actually real?

It's been eighteen years, and I've finally got you, System!

Eighteen years ago, Lin Fan, as a transmigrator, arrived in this chaotic world filled with Ghosts and Monsters, zombies, and Demons appearing endlessly.

If Uncle Jiu hadn't kindly taken him in and treated him as his own back then...

He would have surely died at the hands of various Demons and Ghosts long ago.

Recalling the past 18 years, facing ordinary days that stretched endlessly before him, Lin Fan felt utterly disheartened.

As the Senior Disciple Brother, Lin Fan's talent was only slightly better than Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai.

In this Age of Dharma's End, he wasn't even close to being a genius.

Even speaking generously, he could barely be considered decent.

Despite being a transmigrator, the basic equipment, a System, had been conspicuously absent.

It wasn't until his eighteenth birthday tonight that the System finally appeared.

And it was a System that was like a bug, granting one Skill Point per second...

"Five Thunders Spell Grand Perfection..."

Lin Fan couldn't help but exclaim.

Each tier was divided into four realms: [Beginner, Minor Accomplishment, Major Accomplishment, Grand Perfection].

Lightning Arts were the supreme art of the Daoist Sect, extremely difficult to cultivate, requiring both talent and effort.

Wen Cai currently couldn't even touch the edges of the Five Thunders Spell.

Qiu Sheng was a bit better; occasionally, like a blind cat catching a dead mouse, he could manage a thunderclap.

Despite Lin Fan's years of effort, it was only three years ago that he finally managed to learn the Five Thunders Spell.

After three years of constant practice, the Five Thunders Spell had only just reached Beginner!

Now, in just a few minutes, the System had upgraded the Five Thunders Spell to Grand Perfection?

It was simply a fantasy!

Let alone the Houtian Realm, even the Xiantian Realm, or even the Human Master Realm, what of it?

This was Lightning Arts, the supreme Daoist art!

To learn the Five Thunders Spell at Grand Perfection with Houtian talent, Lin Fan was likely the first person in the present day!

Having such a System was equivalent to having countless people cultivating day and night for him.

It even skipped the process of comprehending and learning techniques... Holy crap, I have a cheat!

[Ding! Host has upgraded Daoist Arts to Grand Perfection, Beginner's Gift Pack has been activated!]

"Open the gift pack!"

Lin Fan cried out joyfully upon hearing this.

As his voice fell, a golden light flashed in his mind.

The next moment, a plain Hundred Treasures Pouch hung at his waist, and a Peachwood Sword lay flat before his eyes.

Lin Fan chuckled, and with a thought, it opened.

Indeed, the commonly used Hundred Treasures Pouch for Daoists opened, revealing the standard storage space.

"Sword, come!"

Lin Fan grabbed the Peachwood Sword and shouted softly.

Instantly, a surge of energy flowed through him, far more potent than his own Houtian fifth-level aura!

A System notification appeared in his mind: [Peachwood Sword: Daoist Arts +100% Amplification]

"What?!"

Lin Fan's pupils dilated, staring at the status bar, completely stunned.

A hundred percent amplification for Daoist Arts?

Even a Profound Tier Magic Tool might not be as powerful as this Peachwood Sword!

Such a Magic Tool, yet it didn't even have a name, just the generic term "Peachwood Sword" like any ordinary one?

Something's not right!

"It's still a magic tool without a rank, how strange!"

The more Lin Fan looked, the more peculiar he found it, his brow furrowing involuntarily.

One had to know, magic tools were divided into four ranks: [Heaven, Earth, Profound, Yellow].

And each rank was further divided into three grades: [High, Middle, Low].

In this Age of Dharma's End, Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy was scarce.

The Daoist Sect was not as glorious as it once was, far from it.

Even the lowest-ranked Yellow Tier Low Grade magic tool could make Daoists flock to it.

But a Yellow Tier Low Grade magic tool, even one most suited to the Daoist, would probably only provide a 10% increase.

This unremarkable Peachwood Sword in Lin Fan's hand could probably contend with an Earth Tier magic tool!

"System, check Skill Points!"

Lin Fan withdrew his thoughts and called out in his mind.

[Host Skill Points: 4000]

In such a short time, he had accumulated another four thousand Skill Points!

"My cultivation in this life relies entirely on my own hard work!"

Lin Fan's face lit up with joy, and he changed his tune, declaring grandly in his mind, "System, max out all Daoist arts, thank you!"

[Ding! Host consumed 100 Skill Points, Soul Suppressing Talisman upgraded from Beginner to Minor Accomplishment] [Ding! Host consumed 500 Skill Points, Soul Suppression Talisman upgraded from Minor Accomplishment to Major Accomplishment] [Ding! Host consumed 1000 Skill Points, Soul Suppressing Talisman upgraded from Major Accomplishment to Grand Perfection]

[Ding! Host consumed 100 Skill Points, Calming Heart Talisman upgraded from Beginner to Minor Accomplishment]

[Ding! Host consumed 500 Skill Points, Calming Heart Talisman upgraded from Minor Accomplishment to Major Accomplishment]

[Ding! Host consumed 1000 Skill Points, Calming Heart Talisman upgraded from Major Accomplishment to Grand Perfection]

A series of system notifications rang out in his mind.

The corners of Lin Fan's mouth turned up with each system notification.

Only when the sounds stopped did he slowly say, "System, open the Attribute Panel!"

[Attribute Panel has been opened!]

Name: Lin Fan

Realm: Houtian Fifth Heaven

Magic Tool: Peachwood Sword (Daoist Art Boost: 100%)

Daoist Arts: Five Thunders Spell (Grand Perfection), Soul Suppressing Talisman (Grand Perfection), Calming Heart Talisman (Grand Perfection)

Skill Points: 800

"What do they mean by getting stronger while lying down?"

Lin Fan looked at the Attribute Panel, unable to contain his joy.

All three basic Daoist arts for Daoists were maxed out!

Master always said that Daoist arts were best not to be spread too thin; focusing on one or two was enough.

And now?

Not enough! Still not enough! Far from enough!

Skill Points were still surging, and he didn't have enough Daoist arts!

"I need to learn more Daoist arts from Master."

Lin Fan got up and strode quickly towards the door.

Suddenly!

From Chang Sheng's Room next door, a chaotic cry rang out: "Master, help!"

Lin Fan heard the commotion and turned, sprinting.

Towards Chang Sheng's Room.
