Chapter 318: Stiffness
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
There were indeed ways to increase the level of his talent and abilities.
Even if there was difficulty, it was not considered a huge difficulty in the eyes of a Divine Spirit Realm expert.
Moreover, Lu Ming had a special physique that could absorb the power of the void to strengthen the Void Realm, which added more methods for Jiu Hun all at once.
“The simplest one, the Eternal Stone.”
The Eternal Stone was a special product of the Aeonians, containing powerful void power. Although this thing was precious, it was not as precious to Jiu Han.
After thinking for a moment, Jiu Han decided on the solution.
He nodded and said,
“Then, let’s start with this. You go back and rest for a day or two. Don’t focus on cultivation anymore, but observe where the Divine Source within your body is flowing to and how you should mobilize the Divine Source—if you don’t figure this out, it is impossible to discuss our plan for the third path.”
To use the Divine Source with a non-divine body and become an Outer Dao God that was not a Divine Spirit.
No one had walked this path before, so there was no precedent.
The first issue to solve was where the Divine Source absorbed by Lu Ming had gone and how to utilize it.
In this aspect, Jiu Han could not help Lu Ming—he had thoroughly examined Lu Ming’s body several times and found no answers.
Therefore, Lu Ming could only rely on himself.
After returning to his small courtyard, Lu Ming sat cross-legged and entered the Void Space.
In the Void Space, Lu Ming began to contemplate.
“Unlike Teacher Jiu Han, I do know where the Divine Source went.”
It went to the system…
However, Lu Ming had no idea how to use the Divine Source.
He opened his attribute panel and looked at the Divine Source column.
The clear text caught Lu Ming’s eye.
Divine Source Points: 44
[The essence of Divine Source Points is the Divine Source!]
[The system has digitized the Divine Source and made it applicable in the following directions:]
[1: Consume 1 Divine Source Point to double all your attributes!]
[2: Consume 1 Divine Source Point to increase your level by one level!]
[3: Consume 1 Divine Source Point to increase the proficiency of any skill by one level!]
[4: Consume 1 Divine Source Point to produce a beneficial evolution of any of your superpowers, with the evolution direction uncontrollable but the outcome is positive.]
[5: Unknown (Your level is insufficient)…]
[6…]
The description under the Divine Source Points had not changed at all. If he wanted to unlock more applications for Divine Source Points, Lu Ming had to increase his level. However, Lu Ming preferred to take his time and not rush to increase his level.
“However, the system does offer four different applications for Divine Source Points.”
Doubling all attributes, leveling up, increasing skill proficiency, and beneficial evolution of superpowers.
But none of these were what Lu Ming needed.
Jiu Han had clearly said that if he wanted to become an Outer Dao God, he had to learn how to use the Divine Source as a source of energy and power, similar to using source energy, not the system-provided methods.
Slowly closing his eyes, Lu Ming could not help but mutter, “Then, what should I do?”
Just as this thought arose, Lu Ming suddenly felt a slight tremor in his brain.
His consciousness turned to the attribute panel, where he saw a slight change in the description of Divine Source Points.
[5: Consume one Divine Source Point to transform it into a trace of free-floating Divine Source energy.]
[Note: This transformation is irreversible, and because you lack a divine body, the consumed Divine Source cannot be recovered naturally. Please use it with caution.]
Lu Ming’s eyes suddenly lit up!
Because that was what he wanted!
The 642nd day of the Black Mist Calendar.
It was morning.
There was a morning class today.
Early in the morning, Lu Ming came to the small classroom after breakfast.
Upon entering the small classroom, he saw Lin Feng sitting attentively at his desk, just like a primary school student.
Without exchanging any greetings with Lin Feng, Lu Ming took his seat.
On the other hand, Lin Feng, like a determined bull, leaned over.
“Junior Brother, have you made any progress in the past two days?”
Lin Feng really could not contain his curiosity. He really wanted to know what special treatment that old man Jiuhan had given Lu Ming in the past two days.
Lu Ming smiled and said, “1 gained something.”
But he did not feel the need to tell him in detail.
Lin Feng thought for a moment and said, “By the way, Junior Brother, there’s a welcoming party on campus the day after tomorrow. Would you like to come and join the fun with me?”
With that said, Lin Feng even made a typical expression that all men understood, “The quality of the female classmates in this cohort is quite high, you know.”
Lu Ming simply shook his head, “Women would only slow down my progress in becoming stronger!”
Lin Feng,
Alright, Lin Feng could also guess what kind of person Lu Ming was… He was completely uninterested in things like beauty and fun.
However, he still had to try If he could really trick Lu Ming out of school…
Just as Lin Feng was letting his imagination run wild, Jiu Han opened the door and walked in.
This fat little old man was wearing a long black coat today. He held a book in one hand and a teaching stick in the other, looking like an old pedant.
Jiu Han walked to the podium and said,
“Today, let’s talk about the operating principles of the Source Power Skills.”
This was a basic course that might seem without practical significance, but it served as the foundation for many things.
An hour later, the morning class ended.
Jiu Han also shed his teacher persona and looked at his two disciples kindly.
He looked at Lin Feng and asked, “How’s the book memorization going?”
Lin Feng replied respectfully, “I’ve already memorized a third of it.”
“Hmm, not bad, keep up the good work.”
This was both encouragement and a way to send him off….
Lin Feng was indeed tactful. Upon hearing this, he immediately stood up and, after bidding farewell to his teacher and junior, left the classroom.
Only Jiu Han and Lu Ming were left in the classroom.
Only then did Jiu Han look at Lu Ming and ask, “What about you?”
Lu Ming said, “Disciple has already found a method to apply the Divine Source.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiu Han instantly appeared in front of Lu Ming.
“You said you found it?!”
“This is too fast!!”
Even Jiu Han could not find it, but you found it in just a little over a day…
Looking at Jiu Han, whose eyes were bulging, Lu Ming smiled shyly. “Disciple has indeed found it… but…”
With these words, a bitter expression appeared on Lu Ming’s face.
“Teacher, you should see for yourself.”
After saying this, Lu Ming extended his hand.
A faint golden light bloomed from Lu Ming’s hand, but the radiance was very unstable!
Seeing this, Jiu Han gasped and said, “It’s indeed the Divine Source! This is the first time I’ve seen a non-deity who can use the Divine Source…”
However, as he observed, Jiu Han furrowed his brow.
“But why do you feel like that…”
Lu Ming added, “It’s very stiff.”
“It’s just very stiff.”
“I found its existence and can also mobilize its flow.”
“But it’s very, very stiff… It circulates in my body, but it’s almost beyond my control..”
