Planetary-Level Cloud-Nurturing Slot: No Goal? Create One!

Chen Yi carefully examined the mirror in his mind.

The reward information from when Luo Feng had completed his milestone goal listed more than one chance to draw a treasure; there were other rewards too.

The mirror displayed:

[Your Yun-nurturing subject "Luo Feng" has completed the milestone goal "Improve the family's living conditions". You may now draw an item!]

[Additionally, because one of your Yun-nurturing subjects has completed a milestone goal with a high star rating for importance, a special reward that had a chance of being obtained has been triggered!]

[Obtained:]

["Points * 50", "Planetary-Level Yun-Nurturing Qualification * 1".]

[Note: Special rewards are the main source of Yun-nurturing qualifications. They have a chance of being obtained only when a Yun-nurturing subject completes a milestone goal with an importance rating of three, four, or five stars...]

[Three-star goal: an extremely small chance of obtaining one.]

[Four-star goal: a small chance of obtaining one.]

[Five-star goal: a relatively high chance of obtaining one.]

That was all the information that had appeared after Luo Feng completed his milestone goal.

"An extremely small chance, and it actually triggered... beginner's protection?"

"But... it looks like Yun-nurturing qualifications are precious, and this one is even a Planetary-Level Yun-Nurturing Qualification." Chen Yi glanced at the mirror, his gaze settling on that piece of information first.

A new Yun-nurturing qualification was undoubtedly the biggest gain.

The greatest use of Chen Yi's ability was to draw his Yun-nurturing subjects' talents and treasures, as well as use points to feed them treasures that he himself needed, then draw those treasures for his own use...

The [Communication and Interaction] missions that provided points refreshed independently for each Yun-nurturing subject.

He could earn points from every Yun-nurturing subject.

Thus, the more Yun-nurturing subjects he had, the faster he would earn points.

So...

More Yun-nurturing qualifications were the way to go!

Moreover.

Yun-nurturing subjects at different cultivation levels earned points at different rates. The higher their level, the more efficiently their missions earned points.

A Planetary-Level Yun-nurturing subject.

Would earn more points than Luo Feng, who was currently at Apprentice Level.

Besides, when choosing someone for a Yun-nurturing qualification, he naturally had to consider their aptitude. If their aptitude was too low... they would reach a level beyond which they could no longer improve, making it difficult to increase the rate at which they earned points. That would be a wasted Yun-nurturing qualification.

For Chen Yi, the faster he accumulated points, the faster his strength would improve. After all, he could draw every treasure fed to his Yun-nurturing subjects!

That, too, showed how precious Yun-nurturing qualifications were.

So...

He had to choose carefully how to use his one and only "Planetary-Level Yun-Nurturing Qualification".

"As for Planetary-Level candidates on Earth."

"In terms of aptitude and the value of what I can draw from them."

"Hong has to be the best choice, right?"

"As for talents, there aren't many worth drawing from Hong. His state of mind is astonishing, and it's also an important part of his potential and aptitude, but his state of mind isn't within the scope of what I can draw. I can only draw his talent for cultivating his state of mind, and even with that talent, I'd still have to cultivate my own mind slowly."

"But as for treasures..."

Chen Yi had set his sights on Hong's treasures. As the strongest person on Earth, any one of his treasures would be worth a fortune to the current Chen Yi!

For example:

The "gravity training room"!

The "method of making Dragon Blood"!

"Dragon Blood" was an important cultivation resource on Earth. It could improve a fighter's physical attributes without side effects, though it had little effect on high-level fighters.

In the original story, Luo Feng had once used Dragon Blood.

It had directly raised his strength from over 25,000 kilograms to over 63,000 kilograms, an increase of more than 30,000 kilograms!

And on Earth, even at half price, Dragon Blood sold for a full 80 billion!

It was said to be made from the heart's blood of a King-level "dragon".

But Chen Yi, who knew the original story, was aware that Hong had actually obtained the method of making Dragon Blood from the Ancient Civilization Ruins. It had nothing to do with the heart's blood of a King-level dragon monster.

Chen Yi even remembered.

That Hong also had the precious Sky-Escaping Shuttle, a Tier 3 Telekinetic Weapon that was valuable even in the universe.

Leaving aside whether he could draw the "method of making Dragon Blood" or the Sky-Escaping Shuttle.

Even drawing a single dose of Dragon Blood would be a huge gain. More treasures also meant a higher chance of drawing something good.

"The key question now is, how do I bind Hong as a Yun-nurturing subject?" Chen Yi pondered.

The method of binding a Yun-nurturing subject.

Required Chen Yi himself, or an already bound Yun-nurturing subject acting as a medium, to approach the intended target.

That would allow the mirror to collect the characteristics of the target's consciousness and establish a binding and connection.

As long as it contained consciousness or will, it would do!

He could come into contact with the target's clone, a Divine Power Avatar, or even their consciousness connected in the Virtual Universe... and so on.

But the mirror had to get within a certain range to collect it.

When Chen Yi had bound Luo Feng, he had also staked out a spot near his home.

So now the question was.

How... was he supposed to get close to Hong, the strongest person on Earth?!

The days passed one by one.

Less than half a month remained until the fighter assessment on August 1.

Today.

Chen Yi had only spoken briefly with Luo Feng...

To complete the daily mission.

Luo Feng had received no new treasures, and could not help wondering whether his initial experiments and his distrust of Senior Yun had displeased him.

He asked in his mind:

"Senior Yun, have I... done something wrong lately?"

Chen Yi heard Luo Feng's voice.

These Cloud Raising Points were bound to each individual subject, and he could not use them himself, so of course there was no need to withhold them.

In fact, over the past few days, Chen Yi had realized the proper way to use points.

He planned to save some points and feed Luo Feng higher-grade items. The more points an item cost, the rarer it would be. If he kept feeding Luo Feng nothing but Golden Vine Marrow Spirit Liquid, he would be wasting his feeding function.

After all, Chen Yi would be able to draw the items he fed Luo Feng later.

If he went to all that trouble to help a Yun-nurturing subject complete a goal, only to draw a single vial of Golden Vine Marrow Spirit Liquid, wouldn't that be a terrible loss?

"This has nothing to do with you. I've been busy lately. I'll give you a better item after a while, so don't worry about it." Chen Yi offered a casual explanation, but did not reveal too much.

At that moment, Luo Feng heard those words in his mind.

He looked a little bewildered...

Not only was Senior Yun not displeased, but he also had something better to give him?

As Luo Feng saw it, the Golden Vine Marrow Spirit Liquid Senior Yun had given him could increase his strength by around five kilograms without side effects, which was already quite good.

For a moment, Luo Feng felt a little anticipation.

He also felt that Senior Yun was genuinely good to him. Over the first ten or so days, he had received dozens of portions of [Golden Vine Marrow Spirit Liquid], greatly speeding up the improvement of his physical attributes...

It was practically like riding a rocket!

After all, this was an additional improvement that ordinary people did not get.

He just didn't know what the other party's intentions were, and Senior Yun's various methods were a little too miraculous.

Even Hong, the strongest person on Earth.

Probably couldn't use such strange methods as sending objects and voices across empty space... right?

Chen Yi was observing Luo Feng's perspective.

He had long since thought of a way to get close to Hong. Now, Chen Yi was considering another problem...

Ever since Luo Feng completed the milestone goal of "improving the family's living conditions", the panel had displayed:

[Yun-nurturing subject]

[Name: Luo Feng]

[Bound Cloud Raising Points: 38.]

[Milestone goal: "None"]

[Items available to draw: spirit reader talent, willpower talent, comprehension, Golden Vine Marrow Spirit Liquid...]

The milestone goal was:

"None"!

That was a huge problem.

If Luo Feng had no clear goal, how could Chen Yi draw items? Even if he gave Luo Feng some precious treasures, he had no qualification to draw them.

Then...

Chen Yi himself would be unable to enjoy the benefits.

Moreover, increasing the rate at which he earned points also required Luo Feng to reach Planetary Level as soon as possible. If Luo Feng had no goal, wouldn't he also lack the drive to improve?

"No goal... that's because Luo Feng doesn't know a lot of things right now. In that case, I'll create a goal for him!"
