CHAPTER 221: 221 - MYTHICAL GRADE

[Your cultivation has increased! Fifth stage of the crystalline core realm - sixth stage of the crystalline core realm].

[Your cultivation has increased! Sixth stage of the crystalline core realm - seventh stage of the crystalline core realm].

[Your cultivation has increased! Seventh stage of the crystalline core realm - eighth stage of the crystalline core realm].

[Your cultivation has increased! Eighth stage of the crystalline core realm - Ninth stage of the crystalline core realm].

A flurry of system notifications echoed in Qingyi’s mind and a long sigh left his lips.

A cloud of steam spread throughout his body, the air around him boiling with the heat of the Qi he was releasing.

Standing up, he felt his body fill with power, the cultivation room around him shuddering gently under the pressure of his aura.

After talking to Yedu, Qingyi was given two weeks to cultivate before they had to start organizing everything for the mission.

This time was spent dual cultivating with the girls and advancing non-stop, only paying a brief visit to Biyue and Rongyan, which earned him an extra 1.5 million lust points.

Opening his status screen, he shook his head.

Now, the price to reach the Nascent Soul Realm was five hundred thousand lust points and from what he was seeing, reaching the Rebirth Realm would probably cost in the millions.

The realm of transcendence? He could hardly imagine.

Luckily, he had Biyue.

After a few moments, Qingyi put those worries out of his mind and focused on the last two objectives of his stay there: firstly, to raise his lineage to mythical grade; secondly, to obtain new spiritual roots and abilities.

After a moment’s hesitation, Qingyi clicked to improve his bloodline and his constitution at the same time.

Five million lust points were swept off his balance sheet as his body was seized by an explosion of draconic Qi.

A miniature version of his lineage projection appeared behind him, letting out a roar capable of making the heavens tremble.

Originally, he only had twenty-five strands of draconic Qi in his dantian, but this soon changed as the amount of Qi dual and continued to increase, stopping when it reached sixty strands of draconic Qi.

And that wasn’t the only change in his body. His eyes were seized by a deep burning, his vision being momentarily blinded before becoming even sharper, even without using his draconic vision ability.

His skin became more elastic, his muscles denser and his bones much more resistant.

After almost an hour of agony and painful grunts, his body finally exploded, sweeping away everything around him in a wave of draconic Qi.

[Your constitution has been improved! Legendary grade - Mythical grade]

[Your bloodline has been improved! Legendary grade - Mythical grade]

[Your bloodline ability ’draconic eyes’ has been improved! Medium level - High level]

Qingyi immediately felt the world in front of him change.

The set of the three-bladed monarch was completely ripped apart, slowly regenerating, his muscles exploding with power while his senses became much sharper than before.

The change was incredible, far more incredible than anything he could have imagined.

With a sigh, he activated his draconic eyes, soon noticing the improvement.

Not only could he see much further, but now he could even see through walls.

Of course, not clearly.

In reality, he could only see the lines of Qi that passed through those walls.

It was something subtle, but it would certainly help him a lot on specific occasions.

’Now, new spiritual roots...’ Qingyi thought as he opened the system store. His mind ran through many possibilities.

Fire for more destructive power, Wind to improve his movement, Shadows to improve his ability to hide, perhaps more abstract things like space and time?

The moment he passed those last two possibilities, Qingyi froze.

Space and time... Yes... Why not space and time?

His eyes glowed as he searched for space spirit roots, the glow intensifying even more as he found them.

Unfortunately, the glow only lasted for a brief moment before disappearing.

In the price place, there was a one and just beyond that unit, an almost endless row of zeros that immediately put out the fire in Qingyi’s heart.

Apparently, his fantasy of a warrior with a spiritual root from space and time and super-fucking-fantastic powers wasn’t going to come any time soon.

In the end, he could only turn his eyes to the more common spirit roots.

A wind or shadow spirit root would be good for him, his lightning steps were already starting to fail him in terms of speed and he had already encountered many cultivators with superior movement techniques.

But this could be solved by a higher-level movement technique.

Even though the lightning Qi was still not comparable to the wind Qi in speed, it was still a Qi with extremely fast movement techniques.

As he ran his eyes over all the possibilities, something popped into his mind.

"System, what would be the result of the fusion between fire roots and ice roots?" He asked, remembering a rather interesting concept he had seen in an old Chinese novel he had read in his childhood on earth.

Gray fire, the union between ice and fire, capable of burning even gods.

If he could merge the two spiritual roots and create this fire, he would solve two problems.

The ice spirit root would solve his lack of ability to trap enemies instead of killing them, while his fire spirit root would increase his destructive power even more.

How could he not be a little excited by the idea?

With a final sigh, Qingyi opened his status screen one last time.
