Pink Entry: Sky-Piercing Giant

Hoo!

Chen Qiu took a deep breath, then gripped his blade and, through the gaps in the steel cage, sent the heavily wounded demon beasts on their way one by one, striving to kill each with a single strike.

At the same time—

As he inspected the inside of his body, several panels shrouded in mist kept popping up.

"Your cultivation has surged greatly. You have officially entered the Fourth Level of the Qi Refining Realm."

"Choose one of the three random entries below within ten breaths."

The three random entries were all fairly ordinary. In the end, he chose—

"Entry Name": Man with a Missing Heaven.

"Entry Grade": White.

"Entry Effect": When you tightly close your eyes, your other senses will be enhanced twofold. If you were born blind, your other senses will be enhanced tenfold. If you became blind later in life, your bodily senses will be enhanced fivefold.

Humans had five senses.

Hearing, smell, sight, taste, and touch.

Without sight, the other four senses could be enhanced tenfold. If this entry fell into the hands of some miserable soul born blind, it would be no less than obtaining a blue entry. From a certain angle, it could be considered an exclusive entry.

Of course.

If he became blind later in life—even if he gouged out his own eyes—he could receive a fivefold enhancement. But he only needed a twofold enhancement. Though the effect was somewhat worse, the side effect was the smallest, after all.

The butcher's blade rose and fell without cease, and his cultivation continued to climb.

"Your cultivation has surged greatly. You have officially entered the Fifth Level of the Qi Refining Realm."

"Choose one of the three random entries below within ten breaths."

"Eh?"

Chen Qiu looked at the three options on the mist-shrouded panel within his body, disbelief flashing through his eyes. It seemed he had stepped in dog shit and run into a top-tier entry!

1:
"Entry Name": Attacked from Both Sides.

"Entry Grade": White.

"Entry Effect": When your abdomen suffers an attack, your back will be injured. When your back suffers an attack, your abdomen will be injured.

2:
"Entry Name": Seven-Foot Man.

"Entry Grade": White.

"Entry Effect": When your height exceeds seven chi, for every additional li, your physical strength will increase by a trace.

3:
"Entry Name": Unknown.

"Entry Grade": Unknown.

"Entry Effect": This entry is the sole unknown entry. Its true appearance will only be revealed after you confirm your selection, and this entry cannot be discarded by any means.

The Seven-Foot Man talent was actually somewhat useful to him and suited body refinement. Seven chi in this world was roughly equivalent to 1.7 meters in his previous life. One chi equaled ten cun. He was not particularly tall at 1.78 meters, but he could still gain quite a bit of enhancement from it.

But that was all.

Its effect was very limited.

He chose the third entry with almost no hesitation. No matter what grade or effect it had, the words "sole entry" were right there. He simply felt that it could not be weak!

Very soon.

Another mist-shrouded panel appeared within his body.

"Entry Name": Dantian Expansion (Unique).

"Entry Grade": Pink.

"Entry Effect": For every demon beast you kill, the foundation of your Dao will expand by one li in width overall, with no upper limit.

"..."

Looking at the effect of this entry before him, Chen Qiu could not help opening his mouth slightly. The shock in his eyes was impossible to conceal. Wasn't this entry's effect a little too powerful?

The dantian was where spiritual energy was stored. Foundation Establishment in the future meant raising a platform atop the dantian, much like building a house.

For ordinary cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Realm, the foundation of their Dao was generally only a hundred li wide and a hundred li tall.

One cun equaled one hundred li.

Width determined how much spiritual energy could be stored in one's dantian. The wider the foundation of the Dao, the more spiritual energy one's dantian could store. In other words, one would have vast amounts of spiritual energy to continuously unleash Dao arts and all kinds of spells.

The height of the foundation of the Dao determined the concentration of spiritual energy within one's dantian. The lower it was, the more fiercely the spiritual energy would be compressed, and the denser it would become. After activating an incantation, the power it could erupt with would be even greater.

Many disciples of sects and children of great clans—

Would often prepare large quantities of heavenly treasures and earthly materials for their Foundation Establishment when they reached Qi Refining Realm Great Perfection, ensuring that they could construct a perfect platform and lay flawless foundations for their path of cultivation.

And the entry "Dantian Expansion" meant that as long as he killed one hundred demon beasts, the width of his future foundation of the Dao would be twice that of others.

If he killed one thousand demon beasts, the width of his foundation of the Dao would be ten times greater than others'.

If he killed several million demon beasts—

Then...

The spiritual energy within his body would be nearly inexhaustible, impossible to use up. If he wished, he could even become a spell machine gun. When his enemy had only activated a single Fireball Spell, a casual wave of his hand would unleash thousands of fireballs.

And the spiritual energy consumed would not even amount to one-thousandth of his dantian.

Though their power would be ordinary, there was no resisting sheer numbers.

"Awesome."

Chen Qiu took a deep breath and gave this entry the most impartial evaluation possible. Unfortunately, this was an entry that would only become effective after the Foundation Establishment Realm. Before Foundation Establishment, the spiritual energy within one's body was not sealed away, but flowed throughout the body.

Only after Foundation Establishment, when all spiritual energy was sealed within the dantian, could this entry fully display its power.

Then he looked at the remaining demon beasts with his eyes brimming with drive.

After several more swift rises and falls of his blade, the mist-shrouded panel appeared once more above the dantian within his body.

"Your cultivation has surged greatly. You have officially entered the Sixth Level of the Qi Refining Realm."

"Choose one of the three random entries below within ten breaths."

1:
"Entry Name": Sky-Piercing Giant.

"Entry Grade": Pink.

"Entry Effect": For every demon beast you kill, your height will increase by one li.

2:
"Entry Name": Person Below the Stage.

"Entry Grade": White.

"Entry Effect": When you are within a crowd, your presence will be greatly diminished.

3:
"Entry Name": Overwhelming Spiritual Energy.

"Entry Grade": White.

"Entry Effect": Once the width of your foundation of the Dao exceeds one hundred li, for every additional li, the power of your spells will increase by a trace.

"What a pity."

Chen Qiu sat on the bed in the guest room in a daze. The most painful thing in this world was having to choose between two impossible choices. If there was anything more painful, it was having a great fortune and opportunity laid out before one's eyes, only to let it slip away.

When he broke through to the Fifth Level of the Qi Refining Realm, there had been a white entry.

"Seven-Foot Man."

The taller one was, the stronger one's body would become. He had not paid much attention to such an unremarkable white entry, but if he had chosen that white entry back then, he could now choose the pink entry "Sky-Piercing Giant."

For every demon beast he killed, his height would increase by one li.

He scarcely dared imagine it.

A top-tier body-refinement entry combination—he scarcely dared imagine that after slaughtering a million ferocious beasts, he might be like Kua Fu, with his head propping up the heavens and his feet planted upon the earth!

Who could have imagined that he would randomly draw the pink entry "Sky-Piercing Giant" afterward?

After letting out a long sigh—

He still chose the third white entry, "Overwhelming Spiritual Energy." Perhaps he could gamble that he might draw "Overwhelming Spiritual Energy" again in the future, but that was far too risky.

Though this entry was merely white, when combined with "Dantian Expansion," it could turn him into an extraordinarily violent spell machine gun!

Not only would its casting frequency be terrifying, its power would be terrifyingly high as well!

He no longer doubted in the slightest whether he would become famous throughout the cultivation world in the future. The only issue he needed to consider was that these entries were all late-game entries. He had to work hard to stay alive.

At the very least, he had to reach Foundation Establishment as soon as possible!

A new book setting sail—if you esteemed readers feel this book is somewhat interesting, please toss in a few monthly tickets, boohoo.!

My thanks!
