The Book of Partial Understanding Upgrades
After leaving the Ye Family, Lin Qingchen wandered aimlessly through Heaven Dou City, hoping to discover new Wonder Seed.
Unfortunately, after wandering around for a long time, he still couldn't find it.
"That's true, Wonder Seed aren't so easy to come by. Finding two in just two days is already very lucky; it's impossible to get even one."
Lin Qingchen sighed inwardly.
Forget it, I'll make a plan later.
The next day, before Lin Qingchen had even gotten out of bed, he heard a knock on the door.
Who is it?
Lin Qingchen asked casually, then quickly went to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, a beautiful figure came into view.
"Lingling, what brings you here?"
She went home yesterday, so she shouldn't need to come to the academy so early. She could just come over when it's time for training.
Ye Lingling wore a veil, covering the lower half of her face, making it difficult to see her features clearly.
She stretched out her hand, and something instantly appeared in her palm.
Lin Qingchen was taken aback. It was that ancient book!
"Lingling, what's wrong?"
Ye Lingling parted her lips slightly. "Judging from your expression yesterday, Qingchen, didn't you really want this book?"
"But isn't this an ancient book passed down in your family?"
Ye Lingling tilted her head. "But just because it's an heirloom doesn't mean it's precious."
"Ah?"
Lin Qingchen was puzzled.
"Actually, this book is all just speculation. As for the content about cultivation, it's only effective for our Nine Heart Begonia lineage. Besides, there are actually many copies of this book, including some other ancient books. After all, these ancient books are quite old, and you never know when they might break down."
I see...
After listening to Ye Lingling's words, Lin Qingchen understood.
However, even so, this ancient book is certainly not something dispensable as Ye Lingling said.
"Does your aunt know?" Lin Qingchen couldn't help but ask.
Ye Lingling:...
"She knows."
Okay, then I don't know.
Lin Qingchen looked helplessly at Ye Lingling, who was hesitant, but also felt a little touched.
I never imagined that my impulsive action would lead this girl to steal the ancient books from my home.
Even if Ye Qingxian doesn't punish her after she finds out, she'll most likely scold her a bit.
However, he didn't intend to refuse, after all, this was Wonder Seed.
I'll make it up to her when I have the chance later.
"Thank you very much, Lingling."
As he spoke, he took the ancient book that Ye Lingling handed him.
"Um"
Out of Lin Qingchen's sight, Ye Lingling's lips curled into a smile, and she said, "Then I'll be going now."
She could tell, of course, that Lin Qingchen hadn't gotten up yet, since his hair was all messy.
"Um."
Watching Ye Lingling's figure disappear around the corner, Lin Qingchen closed the door and returned to sit on the bed.
"I can't believe I got such a Wonder Seed so easily, it's really..."
Lin Qingchen smiled and immediately infused it with the Power of Fate.
Tiny specks of light emerged from the void and then rushed eagerly into the ancient book.
One second...
Two seconds...
Three seconds...
Um?
Why is there no movement?
Lin Qingchen frowned, a strange feeling rising in his heart, as if something was calling to him.
The next moment, he flipped his hand, and a book appeared in his palm.
It is precisely Book of Partial Understanding.
The moment this book appeared, the ancient book shone brightly, and even the Book of Partial Understanding began to glow.
Then, to Lin Qingchen's astonishment, the ancient book transformed into a stream of light and entered the [Book of Partial Understanding].
Then, the light disappeared, and a completely different book appeared in his hand.
[Book of Partial Understanding] (The Red Curious Object)
Description: This book is a compilation of the lifelong learning of a knowledge carrier and a family's research and conjecture about their own Martial Soul, resulting in Book of Partial Understanding only a superficial understanding. Its accuracy is still open to discussion.
Effects: (1) Once a day, you can ask it a question and get its answer, but it is not necessarily correct.
(2) You can store Soul Ring, up to five, but their lifespan cannot exceed the so-called optimal Soul Ring lifespan corresponding to your current Soul Power Level.
(3) It can forcibly increase the accuracy of your question to 100%, but you will no longer be able to ask questions about it for a certain period of time afterwards (other effects can be used normally).
(4) In exchange for not being able to ask questions for a day, tear off a page and use it on the designated target to restore the other person to their best state, but also make them more likely to have good intentions during that day.
Lin Qingchen:???
The function of this Book of Partial Understanding seems unchanged, since its core function still appears to be asking questions, although he himself has always used it to store Soul Ring.
After all, he could only get answers that were hard to tell if they were true or false. If they weren't important, it wouldn't be a problem, but if they were, he certainly wouldn't dare to trust someone whose intelligence was comparable to a steamed bun.
However, if you can get a definite and correct answer, then you can make more use of this question-asking function.
So now the most crucial question is just one: how long exactly is this so-called "certain time period"?
As for the fourth effect, it's a great option for emergencies, but there's a side effect...
Out of kindness?
Holy crap, I've become the Holy Lord of Truth?
Lin Qingchen inwardly grumbled.
However, he ignored this for the time being and, after thinking for a while, asked the Book of Partial Understanding:
"I asked: Why do other, younger-aged Rift Ruins Earth Dragon appear in the corpse of the Ten-Thousand-Year Rift Ruins Earth Dragon after its death? Is this a unique ability of its?"
I want the absolutely correct answer.
The pages of the Book of Partial Understanding, revealed a line of golden characters:
"After the answer is obtained, this book will be closed for three days."
Three days?
Lin Qingchen's mind raced, and he changed his words:
I asked, "Give me a way to immediately control the Law of the Five Elements of the universe."
Rereading Book of Partial Understanding:
"After the answer is received, this book will be closed for one minute."
Just one minute?
Lin Qingchen immediately replied, "Confirmed."
Book of Partial Understanding immediately provides the answer.
I replied: There is simply no such way.
Lin Qingchen's lips twitched.
Well, I knew it wouldn't be that simple.
It seems my attempt to find a loophole has failed.
However, he was able to conclude that the cooldown time of effect three was related to the difficulty of answering the question.
After all, any normal person knows that with his current cultivation level, the success rate of completely mastering the Law of the Universe is practically zero.
After thinking for a moment and waiting for the cooling-off period to end, Lin Qingchen asked the first question again.
He flipped through Book of Partial Understanding.
"I replied: The unique talent of the Rift Ruins Earth Dragon race— Rock and Soil Fission —can convert their own earth elemental energy into life force. This not only allows them to regenerate rapidly, but also forces unlaid eggs within their bodies to hatch prematurely and grow quickly."
After that, the pages of the entire book instantly dimmed, clearly indicating that it had entered a cooling state.
"So that's how it is, converting earth element into life force? No wonder I was able to obtain the Five Elements Life Generation Soul Skill."
Having resolved his doubts, Lin Qingchen stopped thinking about it.
After quickly washing up, he immediately got back to training.
