Twenty-Five Jin

Chang Ping didn't quite understand what true Ruoshui was.

In all his memories from childhood to adulthood, there were only two instances related to Ruoshui.

One was from an animated show he watched as a child, Nezha Legend, where there was a Ruoshui River at Kunlun Mountains, the secluded dwelling of the ancient great god Gonggong.

This river was incredibly strange; it had no buoyancy, not even a feather could float on it, and no bird could fly across it. Even immortals couldn't cross it. As soon as one approached above the river, they would sink to the bottom. Even if an immortal survived, they would lose all their magical powers.

The other instance was from a TV drama he watched in his youth, Lotus Lantern Prequel, where there was a Heavenly River within the Heavenly Palace, the residence of the Jade Emperor. The Ruoshui flowing within it was difficult for birds to cross, and goose feathers couldn't float on it. It was described as a substance of utmost emotion and nature.

He wondered which of his memories his Soul Sea's Ruoshui attribute corresponded to.

"System, you just listed two inexplicable terms and expect me to guess wildly without any explanation? Is this appropriate?" Chang Ping secretly asked himself.

What is Ruoshui? What is Blue Hole? He was completely baffled.

Wouldn't it be better to provide more simple and easy-to-understand terms like "macho man"?

Perhaps the system heard his thoughts, as a foreign memory suddenly appeared in Chang Ping's mind, like user instructions after redeeming a tool.

"So that's what these two terms mean?" Chang Ping suddenly understood.

The Soul Sea has seven colors and nine attributes.

The seven colors are: red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple.

The nine attributes are: Chaos attribute, neutral attribute, Fire attribute, Lightning attribute, Wind attribute, Ice attribute, Water attribute, Metal attribute, and Poison attribute.

The colors and attributes correspond one-to-one, so one can roughly determine the attribute of a person's Soul Sea from its color.

Deep red represents the Chaos attribute, light red represents the neutral attribute, orange represents the Fire attribute..., deep purple represents the Poison attribute, and light purple represents the Metal attribute.

Lu Piao's Soul Sea is red, but the color is deep, so its attribute is Chaos; Nie Li's Soul Sea is also red, but the color is lighter, so its attribute is neutral; Du Ze's Soul Sea is yellow, but not pure yellow, leaning slightly towards orange, so its attribute is Lightning-Fire.

Xiao Ning'er's Soul Sea is green, with a slight yellowish tint, so its attribute is Wind-Lightning; Ye Zi Yun's Soul Sea is cyan, with a slight greenish tint, so its attribute is Wind-Ice.

Ice and snow are the same; calling it Wind-Ice attribute isn't wrong, it just doesn't sound as pleasant.

Chang Ping's Soul Sea is light blue, not pure blue. Blue represents the Water attribute, so light blue represents the Ruoshui attribute, which is water with a slight hint of poison.

Ruoshui is of utmost emotion and nature, so this poison is naturally not ordinary poison, but the poison of lust.

Once Chang Ping's Soul Force invades a woman's body, she will gradually fall for him, unable to extricate herself.

This Ruoshui attribute is a perfect match with the Human Dao Divine Art!

Even more perfect is the form of Chang Ping's Soul Sea.

Blue Hole form!

To be precise, it's a hole form; the blue is because of the Soul Sea's color.

This hole is located in the center of the Soul Sea, bottomless.

It has two forms: Black Hole and White Hole.

Under normal circumstances, the Soul Sea is in the White Hole form, releasing a wave of energy every minute to strengthen Chang Ping's physique.

When Chang Ping is attacked by energies such as Soul Force, Law Power, or Heavenly Dao Power, the Soul Sea automatically switches to Black Hole form to devour these energies.

Chang Ping had a bold guess: these energies might be absorbed by the system.

As an outsider, he shouldn't possess a Soul Sea that only natives of the Demon God world have. There is only one truth!

His Soul Sea is the system, and the system is his Soul Sea!

Although the system didn't say it directly, Chang Ping, being intelligent and perceptive, could figure it out even without it being stated.

After studying the attributes and form of his Soul Sea, Chang Ping saw his current Soul Force.

26 points!

It had doubled.

This was all thanks to the Human Dao Divine Art.

He only needed to perform the "Human Dao" once a day, transferring all the Soul Force in his body to women, and his Soul Force would instantly double.

However, his current Soul Force had not yet reached the Silver level, so the effect could only be activated once a day. Once he cultivated to Silver, it could be activated twice a day, which would be incredibly satisfying.

Having thoroughly researched everything, Chang Ping was now ready to proceed with his final task.

Upgrading his Talent!

"How many levels can I reach today?" Chang Ping rubbed his hands, full of anticipation.

Shen Xiu watched him happily grinning at the air and couldn't help but think: Has Chang Ping's brain gone bad?

-

1800!

-

1900!

-

2000!

He stopped only when his Strength Value reached "twenty-five jin per minute," still feeling unsatisfied.

"Too little, only seven levels gained from a day's accumulation," Chang Ping grumbled internally. "If I hadn't spent ten thousand Strength Value dealing with Black Fox and Xiangliu, I probably could have leveled up my Talent even further."

Hmph! Dark Guild and that old thief Xiangliu, you've sealed your own doom!

After leveling up, he could now gain 36,000 jin of Strength per day. Including the remaining four thousand jin, if nothing unexpected happened, he would become a Gold four-star martial artist tomorrow.

Level three Rage could temporarily increase his Strength sixfold, while Great Ancestor Long Fist and Severing Descendants Foot could each double his Strength. With these calculations, he could now go head-to-head with a Black Gold four-star martial artist.

In the entire Sacred Family, only that old ghost Shen Hong gave him cause for concern.

That old geezer was a Black Gold peak Demon Spirit Master. Not only could he fly, but he could also breathe fire. He was also incredibly cowardly, never appearing rashly without a sure victory. Dealing with him would be difficult.

He had only agreed to settle his score with Shen Xiu and her family, but he hadn't agreed to spare the Sacred Family.

Not only did they extort his hard-earned money, but they also bullied his dream lover. They even colluded with the ambitious Dark Guild, and furthermore, they abandoned the city and fled, causing the deaths of so many beautiful girls.

If the Sacred Family isn't destroyed, heaven's justice will be defied!

"What... what's wrong?" Sensing the terrifying killing intent radiating from Chang Ping, Shen Xiu hastily pulled the covers tighter and shrunk her neck.

The bedding was soft and comfortable, brought from the Sacred Family.

Why was this guy suddenly going crazy? Who had provoked him now?

Shen Xiu was completely bewildered.

"Nothing!" Chang Ping closed his data panel and casually brushed it off.

Night turned into day.

It was time for Chang Ping to head to the street outside the academy and sell off all the goods in his left-hand ring.

He didn't want to eat the free pig slop from the first floor of the cafeteria every day.

Mooncake stir-fried with Chinjao, spicy monkey head mushrooms – was that even food for humans?

"Where are you going?" Hearing the sound of the Gate of Opening, Shen Xiu poked her head out from under the covers and asked him, like a devoted wife concerned about her husband.

For some reason, even after what Chang Ping had done to her yesterday, she couldn't bring herself to hate him. Instead, she found herself caring about him involuntarily.

Could it be because of the Blackwater Strange Poison?
