Chapter 56: Chapter 55: The Concealed Supreme

And finally, the Basic Spirit, this passive is quite useful.

First, the basic passive type will enhance the body’s basic potential attribute.

At every level, a Spiritualist has fixed basic attribute limits, and the higher the professional level, the higher the limit. The Body Basic Potential can also elevate the attribute limit.

If he remembered correctly, the life limit for a Level 1 Hero Level Tank System profession is 1000, but his life has already reached 1284, surpassing the Hero Level’s limit, and it’s estimated to be not far from the Legendary Profession’s limit.

At this point, learning a basic passive that increases the basic attribute limit is incredibly valuable, given that he could genuinely reach that limit.

Getting stuck by the life limit is frustrating.

Secondly, the basic passive can enhance the quality of spiritual attributes, giving him stronger resistance to spirit-related skills, effective against both control and damage, and greatly enhances his ability to learn magic system skills.

Thirdly, a high level of spiritual attributes can indirectly boost perception power, making it easier for him to possess sharper battle intuition, which holds certain value in real combat.

Basic Spirit (Passive)

Tier: ★★★

Level: Level 1

Effect: Body Basic Potential +1, Spiritual Strength increased by an additional 5%, and Spiritual Energy’s natural recovery speed increased by 10%.

Soon, a familiar warm current continually surged from deep within his body, flowing straight to the brain. His frozen thoughts suddenly shattered, and his consciousness surged forward like a stream breaking free from its shackles.

Ye Mingqiu closed his eyes, but he still felt that the outside world was vividly clear, and the perception enhancement from spirit amplification made him feel as if he could see through the essence of the world.

Of course, this was just the illusion of quick enhancement in a short time; the improvement from Basic Spirit wasn’t that extensive.

[You have completed all main quests, would you like to immediately settle the rewards and exit the world?]

[Hint: You can remain in this world for up to 24 hours]

Ye Mingqiu fell silent. Initially, he planned to follow the Silver Princess into the Pure Flame Association and then search for the Blood-colored Venerable, finally following the main quest’s guidance to eliminate that guy, but… the main quest doesn’t seem to involve fighting the Blood-colored Venerable.

Clearly, that guy holds hostility against me, clearly he already sent people to hunt me down, yet the final main quest isn’t related to the Blood-colored Venerable.

Feels a bit frustrating

….

In the distance of the battlefield, a man in a striped shirt, wearing a casual suit and loafers, frowned as he looked towards the direction of the battlefield.

Tsk, seven blood pillars died?

It seems that guy’s strength is even greater than I imagined, a pity, Yin Shuo— that guy I spent so long cultivating into a talent. He invested all the potential gained from Source Blood into theft abilities, possessing the ability to easily steal equipment from Spiritualists, even I can hardly detect it.

Without a few hundred years, it’s probably nearly impossible to cultivate a second such talent.

“Ding~ ding~”

The man picked up his phone and narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw the name marked as Zhao Yulong. That was his boss’s name, and he didn’t like this boss.

Connecting the call, he said, “Hello, General Manager Zhao, I wanted to ask for….”

“Hello what? Chen Mo! Are you deaf or has your brain filled with water? Want to take leave? Have you met your performance targets? Have you found clients? Is the company raising you pigs to eat for nothing?”

“And that new intern! Yes, that one called Xiaoli! He dared to secretly eat the caviar I left in the pantry fridge this morning! Three spoonfuls, a whole three spoonfuls!”

“That’s premium goods I got someone to bring back from the New Federation! Did he think it was company-provided free oats? Stupid like a pig! You, Chen Mo, as his team leader, how are you leading people? Did you grow eyes in your ass? Can’t manage even a small matter like this, what use is the company keeping you? Still want your year-end bonus? Hmm? Speak up! Gone mute?!”

“….”

The man sighed, rubbed his head, and directly hung up the phone, feeling complicated.

Seems like, I’ll have to change my boss again today. Wanting to live peacefully and long in this world, it’s really not an easy task.

…

Ruins of an unfinished building

The Silver Princess came beside Ye Mingqiu and casually tossed over a dark red bead.

“Hmm?”

Ye Mingqiu caught the bead.

[Blood Energy Core]

Type: Item

Description: A core brimming with life force. Once embedded into the body, the user gains tremendous vitality and obtains a special energy—blood energy— with a high probability of becoming a Red Hermit, a small probability of assimilating blood energy and life force, and a very small probability of obtaining a special hidden profession.

“Where did this come from?”

“Previously, the S-Level Red Hermit I fought left it behind. When it saw you enter that state, it didn’t even hesitate and directly pulled out its own core and ran.” The Silver Princess placed a hand on her hip, looking at him with a somewhat strange gaze.

“Thanks.”

Ye Mingqiu placed the Blood Energy Core on the Blood Spear. The Blood Spear instantly lit up with a crimson light, devouring the blood energy core’s blood energy at an extremely fast speed, and as the Blood Spear consumed the blood energy core, it continuously dimmed, finally turning entirely into a pitch-black bead.

[Hint: Blood Spear has infused you with pure life energy, Life +20]

Life: 1304

The effect is good, but unfortunately not as much as directly killing it, after all, this is just a core.

“You promised to be my introducer and help me get introduced into the Pure Flame Association.” Ye Mingqiu said.

The Silver Princess swallowed, feeling her heart racing. Now she was uncertain if this guy was even human. How could she introduce him into the Pure Flame Association? But if she refused, she might end up dead today, and the Pure Flame Association could also suffer some repercussions.

“Um… can we change the condition?”

She weakly suggested.

Ye Mingqiu was not surprised by this, now that he had completed all his missions, joining the Pure Flame Association didn’t matter much. Changing to a more beneficial condition would also be good for him.

So he said, “Alright, accompany me to do something for a day.”

“Huh? Me?”

The Silver Princess pointed at herself in confusion, feeling like her small body might not be able to handle such intensity, but at that moment, she dared not refuse.

“Can’t do it?”

Ye Mingqiu asked.

“Okay.”

The Silver Princess showed a determined look, her heart beating incredibly fast. It seemed she was about to go through a hard-fought battle.

….

A day later

Ye Mingqiu used the Blood Spear to kill another Red Hermit hiding in human society, watching it turn into dark fragments, his brows slightly knitted.

The 24-hour stay was nearing its end, but he still hadn’t found any information about the Blood-colored Venerable and had no opportunity for battle. Clutching the return authority, planning to risk his life in a battle, Ye Mingqiu found no outlet for his strength.

This wretch is too cowardly!

Even with all subordinates dead, it doesn’t come out?

I’ll concede you’re tough!
