Blood Thorn Overgrowth | First Special Opportunity Mall Roulette Draw

Time passed bit by bit.

When the Blood Wolf Mercenary Group entered the Soul Hunting Forest with Lin Jing, it was just noon.

Now, the sky was turning dark.

Lin Jing was still in the middle of absorbing his spirit ring.

The Blood Wolf Mercenary Group had not left either, keeping watch nearby.

The worry on their faces had been completely swept away.

Because...

Other than the initial moment of pain, Lin Jing's absorption had been completely calm ever since.

This left them clicking their tongues in wonder, calling him a monster.

"Sister Yue, what do you think this guy was fed while growing up?"

"He's absorbing a seven-hundred-year spirit ring as his first one; that's already exceeding the limit for a second ring."

Liu Yun rested her chin on her hand, a faint smile on her lips as she looked at Lin Jing.

"I don't know what he was fed, but I know what you were fed."

Hu Yue raised an eyebrow with a smile.

"Me?"

Liu Yun was stunned. "What was I fed?"

"Tender grass."

Hu Yue laughed out loud.

"You!"

Liu Yun's face turned bright red in an instant. She pointed at Hu Yue, too angry to speak.

Amidst the two women's laughter, Lin Jing's spirit ring absorption concluded, and he slowly opened his eyes.

Ding Hao's gaze had been fixed on Lin Jing the entire time, and he stepped forward the moment Lin Jing opened his eyes.

"Congratulations."

Ding Hao said.

"Many thanks to you all for your help."

Lin Jing smiled slightly.

He immediately checked his Blue Silver Grass spirit. Aside from a few blood-colored patterns appearing on it, there were no other changes.

He felt a bit disappointed, but this feeling didn't last long; it vanished in an instant.

He had only absorbed one such spirit ring; if that alone could cause the Blue Silver Grass to mutate, it would be far too simple.

The Blue Silver Grass wouldn't be called a trash spirit otherwise.

Afterward, he checked his first spirit skill.

This brought him a pleasant surprise.

His first spirit skill was not some useless skill like that "entanglement" used by that little brat.

His first spirit skill was named: Blood Thorn Overgrowth.

The Blue Silver Grass hardened and grew countless blood-sucking thorns, but it didn't end there.

He could also control the Blue Silver Grass that had grown these blood-sucking thorns to spread rapidly across the ground, forming a carpet-like area of coverage.

It drained the enemy's blood to increase the hardness of the Blue Silver Grass.

This could be considered achieving the devouring effect Lin Jing wanted, albeit in an alternative way.

The energy absorbed was not integrated into his own body, but injected into his spirit.

After obtaining his first spirit ring, Lin Jing could also activate the Special Opportunity Roulette draw.

However, he was in no rush to draw; he was still in the Soul Hunting Forest, and it wasn't very safe.

He felt relatively at ease with the Blood Wolf Mercenary Group, as his first spirit ring had already been absorbed.

If they had any ulterior motives, they certainly would have acted by now.

"Since the little brother is awake, let's leave the Soul Hunting Forest."

"The night is very dangerous in the wild. Even though this is the Soul Hunting Forest, it cannot be underestimated."

Hu Yue stood up and looked at the sky.

"If we hurry, we should be able to get out of the forest before dark."

Lin Jing brushed the dust off his clothes and nodded.

They proceeded just as they had when they arrived, with Ding Hao flying in the air to observe the situation.

The other four guarded Lin Jing in the center, returning along the same path they had taken.

They exited the Soul Hunting Forest before dark.

They stood at the market outside the Soul Hunting Forest.

Hu Yue extended a hand and said solemnly, "Our cooperation ends here."

"Goodbye."

Lin Jing shook her hand briefly, turned, and walked toward the city gates.

After returning to the hotel near the city gates, he couldn't wait to call out the system.

"System, come out quickly, I want to spin the Special Opportunity Roulette!"

[Ding!]

[Detected that the host has become a one-ring Soul Master. Loading the Special Opportunity Roulette for the host.]

[Progress: 0%... 5%... 20%... 50%... 90%]

"It still needs to load?"

Lin Jing's voice was speechless.

He boredly opened his panel.

[Host: Lin Jing.]

[Spirit: Blue Silver Grass (Trash Spirit).]

[Spirit Power: Level 13.]

[Cultivation Technique: None.]

[Current Task: None.]

[Task Points: -10.]

Besides this, there was an image of Lin Jing on the right.

There was a white dot on each of the limbs, head, and torso of the character model.

Clicking on them would show whether that part had absorbed a spirit bone.

He felt this feature was a bit useless. Did he not know whether he had absorbed a spirit bone or not?

Did he need to check the panel?

[Ding!]

[Special Opportunity Roulette interface loaded successfully.]

[Switched to the Special Opportunity Roulette system interface for the host.]

Lin Jing didn't rush to start; he leaned toward the light screen and observed it carefully.

The Special Opportunity Roulette was somewhat similar to the Mall Roulette.

It was also divided into several major categories. Winning a prize would enter the sub-roulette interface corresponding to that category for a second round of drawing.

Of course, that wasn't everything; besides the major categories, there were also some individual rewards.

Among the major categories, the ones Lin Jing favored were: "Obtain Godly Trial," "Complete Domain," and "Twin Spirits."

There weren't many individual ones, and Lin Jing only favored two: "Spirit Evolution" and "Spirit Bloodline Enhancement."

Both of these were rewards that could potentially transform his trash spirit, Blue Silver Grass, into a top-tier spirit.

"First draw, heaven bless me!"

Lin Jing pressed his palms together and prayed devoutly.

"Open!"

Upon receiving the command, the roulette spun rapidly. The rotation time of the Special Opportunity Roulette was different from the ordinary one.

It spun for a full five seconds before the speed slowed slightly.

Not until the seventh second, under Lin Jing's heart-pounding gaze, did it stop on "Focus on Maintenance."

"Focus on Maintenance: +1 to your appearance level."

"If your appearance level is 'S', it will be promoted to 'Ex' level. It belongs to the level of a succubus descending upon the world; regardless of gender, anyone who sees you will want to fall for you."

Just hearing the roulette's introduction made Lin Jing's heart race and his back go cold.

He hoped he wouldn't draw this "Focus on Maintenance" again; S-level was truly enough.

A hazy halo flashed across Lin Jing's face, and his appearance was promoted to S-level.

He didn't immediately draw the second round, but walked to the full-length mirror in the room.

Looking at himself in the mirror, there was no change in his appearance, but why did he feel... even more handsome?

The more he looked, the more handsome he became; Lin Jing was even starting to get infatuated with himself.

"Don't be infatuated with me, I'm just a legend."

He muttered to himself for a while, then returned to the bed to conduct the second round of the draw.

"I hope I can get something good this time."

"As long as it's not something negative."

He had noticed earlier that this roulette actually contained an option for "Qi Deviation," which clearly wasn't anything good.

And it wasn't just "Qi Deviation"; there were many similar things, such as being targeted by a wealthy older woman.

Just looking at them made Lin Jing feel a bit overwhelmed.

The roulette began to spin again.

Finally,

It stopped on...
