Another month quietly slipped away.
During this month, Han Feng still did not step out of his courtyard for even half a step, his daily life filled with cultivation and the deep study of martial arts.
He was like a true ascetic, immersing all his focus in the pursuit of power.
The Yellow Dragon Pill and Golden Marrow Pill previously gifted by Han Li had long since been completely consumed.
Even the batch of precious elixirs subsequently sent by Wang Juechu, who served as his master, was likewise converted by him into the purest energy.
The number on the attribute panel finally accumulated to an astonishing degree.
50 points!
A full 50 attribute points, and Han Feng had not used a single one.
His Positive Yang Force still remained at the sixth layer, having failed to advance to the seventh layer.
The other two martial arts had indeed made some progress.
During this period, Han Feng primarily cultivated the Elephant Armor Skill, this external martial art.
Because last time Li Feiyu went to see Han Li, Han Li had him send over the manual for the Elephant Armor Skill.
As for cultivating the Elephant Armor Skill, Han Feng had a natural talent; after all, he was at the sixth layer of internal cultivation and possessed a foundation in martial arts, so he mastered it within a month.
His height shot up quite a bit.
He looked like a thirteen or fourteen-year-old youth!
Finally, after absorbing the medicinal power of the very last pill.
When Han Feng checked the attribute panel, he discovered a long-awaited change.
Behind the spiritual root entry, that plus sign which had always been extremely dim was currently flashing with a dazzling red light.
Attribute addition was available!
Han Feng's breathing hitched for a moment, and an indescribable excitement surged into his heart.
The Martial Path ultimately had its limits, and only immortal cultivation could lead to longevity!
He did not hesitate in the least as he concentrated his consciousness on that plus sign.
[Please select attribute addition!]
[Please select the spiritual root attribute for attribute addition (Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth).]
He could even choose independently?
This discovery made Han Feng overjoyed.
The Evergreen Art was a wood-attribute technique, so the answer was self-evident.
He recited silently in his heart.
"Select the wood attribute!"
The next moment, the numbers on the attribute panel jumped frantically, and a full 50 attribute points instantly dropped to zero.
A mysterious and esoteric strange sensation flowed through his entire body, as if every single cell of his body had been remodeled and cleansed once over.
He hurriedly opened the attribute panel once more.
Host: Han Feng.
Rank: Second-rate Realm.
Age: 10 years old.
Spiritual Root: Wood.
Techniques: Positive Yang Force (6th layer), Elephant Armor Skill (1st layer).
Martial Arts: Thunderous Saber Technique (Minor Achievement), Smoke-Mist Steps (Minor Achievement).
Attribute Points: 0.
It worked!
Looking at the spiritual root entry, which had changed from "None" to a simple "Wood" character, Han Feng almost laughed out loud.
In the Immortal Cultivation World, this was known as a single-attribute spiritual root of a genius!
Heavenly Spiritual Root!
The more miscellaneous a spiritual root was, the slower the cultivation speed would be.
As for a single-attribute Heavenly Spiritual Root, cultivating the technique corresponding to that attribute would result in a speed of a thousand miles a day!
Haha!
Not only was he a once-in-a-ten-thousand-years peerless prodigy of the Martial Path.
Upon stepping onto the immortal path in the future, he would likewise be a favored son of heaven!
Forcefully suppressing the wild joy in his heart, Han Feng immediately sat cross-legged, took out those few pieces of paper recording the Evergreen Art from his bosom, and began to earnestly comprehend it.
According to the rules of the system, he had to first comprehend it on his own and cultivate the technique to the "uninitiated" state before the subsequent plus sign would light up.
As long as he could achieve initiation, he could once again start the rapid-upgrade path of taking pills and adding attributes!
However, reality poured a basin of cold water on him.
For three consecutive days.
He forgot to eat and sleep, memorized the formula for the first layer of the Evergreen Art until he knew it backward, and attempted to sense the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.
Yet no matter how hard he tried, there was not the slightest movement within his body.
That so-called "spiritual energy" was completely impossible to perceive, let alone guide into his body.
On the attribute panel, the technique entry also failed to show the characters for the Evergreen Art after a long time.
It seems I still need to ask Brother Er Leng for some guidance on cultivation experience...
Han Feng made up his mind.
Without the pointers of someone who had been through it, wanting to achieve initiation out of thin air was simply too difficult.
Right on time, the day agreed upon for meeting Han Li had also arrived.
The forest clearing.
Han Feng's figure appeared silently.
Han Li had already been waiting for a long time, and upon seeing him arrive, he immediately welcomed him.
"A Niu, you're finally here, this time I feel like you're different again."
Han Li walked around Han Feng in a circle, clicking his tongue in wonder.
It had only been a month since they last met, and his cousin's height had shot up by another section.
"I've been cultivating the Elephant Armor Skill recently, so my body has grown a bit faster," Han Feng casually explained.
He no longer brought up his progress in martial arts, instead changing the subject and cutting straight to the core issue.
"Brother Er Leng, that technique you gave me, I went back and had my master take a look at it..."
Han Feng began the pretense he had meticulously prepared.
"My master couldn't make head or tail of it either, but this past month, I looked through all the ancient texts and collections within the sect that I could get in touch with, and finally found some clues."
Han Li's expression immediately became focused.
"What did you find?"
Han Feng deliberately paused for a moment, lowering his voice to create a mysterious and solemn atmosphere.
"According to the scraps of records I found, combined with my own guess... Brother Er Leng, what you are cultivating is very likely not mortal martial arts."
"Instead... according to legends, it is a technique cultivated by immortals!"
Boom!
Immortals?
Immortal cultivation technique?
