Staying Alive Cautiously in the Celestial Realm and Becoming the Strongest-Chapter 680: Panel Upgrade

Chapter 680 -680: Panel Upgrade

[Human Virtue +1275]

Wang Chen clasped the long tether, reeling the Heaven-Ensnaring Punisher Net back in.

He also brought back a crystal clear Yin Qi Pearl.

Unfortunately, it wasn’t of the purest quality.

But that wasn’t what Wang Chen was focusing on, he scanned the information that flickered in his field of view and then opened the panel.

[Human Virtue: 999365]

...

He was just a few hundred points away from breaking the million-point barrier in Human Virtue!

To be honest, he found it surprising that he could accumulate such a vast amount of Human Virtue points in just over half a year.

This was mainly due to the special environment of the Northern Evil Eye.

The number of monster spirits and evil wraiths was high, but there was no presence of “Fierce” level entities; with his Purple Mansion eight-tier strength and the upgraded Heaven-Ensnaring Punisher Net, Wang Chen was not afraid even of “Fiend” level evil spirits.

Northern Evil Eye region certainly contained “Fiend” level evil spirits equivalent to the Golden Core tier, but they seemed to have high intelligence and kept their distance from Wang Chen with respect.

It was through the slaughter of “Grievance” level evil spirits that Wang Chen had forged a million points of Human Virtue!

He was only one kill away.

He looked around, searching for the traces of evil spirits.

Embarrassingly, perhaps due to the fierce killing spree earlier, there were no monster spirits or evil wraiths within his field of vision.

In the past half year, Wang Chen had been stationed in the Northern Evil Eye, killing from the outer perimeter to the edge of the inner ring, sparing no evil spirits, large or small, establishing himself as a star of death.

The most dangerous part of the Evil Eye’s core was too risky to trespass, and the surrounding evil spirits were terrified of him.

Any evil spirit with a bit of intelligence kept a wide berth upon encountering him.

However, that didn’t matter, as Wang Chen took out the Upper Clear Qiankun Mirror from the Sumeru Ring.

The land of the Evil Eye greatly affected the casting of spells.

It also severely limited the range of divine sense scouting.

But a treasure like the Upper Clear Qiankun Mirror could fully exert its capabilities.

Wang Chen infused mana to activate it, and his originally suppressed divine sense suddenly expanded in all directions, searching for hidden prey!

With the mighty mirror, Wang Chen quickly found a new target.

He immediately swooped toward the locked location and soon dragged a monster spirit out from its burrow.

This time Wang Chen didn’t use the Heaven-Ensnaring Punisher Net; he summoned the Dragon Abyss sword and brutally executed the creature!

[Human Virtue +1065]

[Human Virtue: 1000430]

He had broken a million!

Before Wang Chen could rejoice, an extremely prominent prompt message popped up in his field of view.

[Eligible for upgrade, do you wish to proceed?]

Wang Chen’s spirits immediately soared!

He wasn’t surprised.

In fact, when his Human Virtue points had accumulated close to a million, Wang Chen had already begun to suspect.

Now, his presumption had come true!

His heart was naturally filled with excitement.

But Wang Chen still forcibly suppressed the thrill in his heart and didn’t choose to upgrade on the spot.

He immediately returned to Free Residence.

Back in this safehouse, Wang Chen activated the defensive array to its strongest state and then sat in the quiet chamber to open the immortal cultivation panel.

The previous prompt appeared again.

[Eligible for upgrade, do you wish to proceed?]

This time he didn’t hesitate in the slightest and immediately chose to confirm.

Boom!

It was as if a nuclear bomb had detonated in Wang Chen’s mind, his divine consciousness instantly plunged into a blank space.

His vision was a vast whiteness, and he felt as though his soul had left his body, his thoughts wandering, completely losing control of himself.

After an indeterminable amount of time, Wang Chen’s consciousness gradually returned.

As his mind became clear, so did his field of vision.

[Upgrade complete]

Seeing the prompt, Wang Chen eagerly called up the immortal cultivation panel.

[Name: Wang Chen]

[Lifespan: 26/280]

[Cultivation Level: Purple Mansion Eight-Tier]

[Physique: 26]

[Root Bone: 11]

[Comprehension: 10]

[Divine Soul: 25]

…

His vision was flooded with a long list of data, identical to what he had seen before.

Almost no change at all!

But in the Cultivation Technique section, Wang Chen saw some new entries.

Or rather, functions.

[Integration],[Deduction],[Recycling]

These three new options were aimed squarely at all the Cultivation Techniques Wang Chen was practicing!

The Integration feature allowed lower-tier Cultivation Techniques to be merged into higher-tier ones, provided they were compatible.

For instance, Wang Chen’s “Geng Metal Finger,” a Qi Cultivation Tier spell, could be integrated into the Purple Mansion Tier “Metal Life Finger” to enhance the latter’s power once this function was activated.

The prerequisite for Cultivation Technique integration was that the lower-tier technique reached the Great Perfection level.

The high-tier technique, meant for integration, only needed to be started, and the integration would also boost the experience of the high-tier technique.

This function was undoubtedly very interesting.

Wang Chen tried to integrate “Geng Metal Finger” with “Metal Life Finger,” but the panel indicated that he didn’t have enough Human Virtue points!

The million points of Human Virtue he had painstakingly accumulated were now down to just a pitiful few.

He had no choice but to put off testing the new functions.

He would wait until he had saved enough Human Virtue points.

As for Deduction, it was even more brilliant.

This function targeted those incomplete Cultivation Techniques that could be deduced as long as they were started.

For example, Wang Chen’s main practice, the Innate Five Elements Skill, lacked subsequent Cultivation Techniques for the Golden Core and Nascent Soul tiers.

He could use this function to deduce them!

But it would also consume Human Virtue points.

Wang Chen estimated that the Human Virtue points required for deduction would be much more than for integration!

And the higher the tier of the Cultivation Technique being deduced, the more points it would require.

He was now very familiar with the quirks of this system.

As for the last feature, [Recycling], it seemed a bit boring and useless.

Any Cultivation Technique that Wang Chen practiced could have half the invested Human Virtue points reclaimed if this function was used.

That’s right, only half the points!

After the recycling was complete, the technique would return to the “initialized” stage.

Start from the beginning.

Why on earth would Wang Chen recycle?

The only interesting aspect was that using the [Recycling] function didn’t consume any Human Virtue points.

But Wang Chen figured he probably wouldn’t need this function in the future.

This major million-point upgrade of the Immortal Cultivation panel brought three new features to Wang Chen’s attention this time.

All targeted at Cultivation Techniques.

They didn’t quite meet his expectations.

However, Wang Chen wasn’t a person dissatisfied by greed; after giving it some thought, he still felt like he had gained.

A million points of Human Virtue might sound like a lot, but it only took half a year to accumulate, and with the right place, he could farm another million points in even less time.

Wang Chen guessed that for the Immortal Cultivation panel to upgrade again, it would require ten million Human Virtue points.

It wasn’t unthinkable.

After examining the new functions of the panel, Wang Chen also received a genuine surprise today.

The External Core was complete!

Previously, Wang Chen had given True Person Ye’s Golden Core and the Monster Spirit Pearl to the small Ding to refine the External Core.

The little guy had assured Wang Chen with a thump on its chest that it could produce a perfect External Core for him, although it would require at least thirty days and a steady input of Spirit Stones.

As a result, Wang Chen fell into the trap.

This “at least” thirty days turned out to be close to three months, or ninety days.

And the input of Spirit Stones hadn’t missed a single day during that period!
