Chapter 352: Chapter 249: Upgraded to 4th Class Spiritual Root, Aptitude improvement _1

However, cultivating this Soul Secret Art successfully was no simple feat.

It required a powerful soul aptitude and excellent comprehension skills.

Red Scorpion Master spent decades studying this Soul Secret Art but never made headway.

Unfortunately, he still couldn’t grasp the basics to this day.

“Impressive, very impressive.”

“There are such Soul Secret Arts in the world.”

“If I could cultivate this Soul Secret Art successfully, I would have another ace up my sleeve.”

Zhou Sui was thrilled.

He instantly knew that this Soul Secret Art complemented him perfectly. After all, his soul aptitude was extraordinarily strong, which was highly compatible with this secret art.

As for comprehension, he wouldn’t lack it with the help of Book Worm.

So, this Soul Secret Art wasn’t challenging for him.

Grasping the basics was as easy as child’s play.

Once he perfected it, he would command this deadly Soul Secret Art.

Then, without making any moves, he would only need to use the Soul-dispersing Stinger with a ripple of thought to kill his enemies unseen.

The enemies probably wouldn’t even know how they died.

Whoosh!

At this thought, Zhou Sui instructed his clone to bring back the Heritage Jade Record, along with a massive quantity of top-grade Spirit Stones and numerous treasures.

He then let Book Worm consume the Heritage Jade Record, and a flood of information about the False Spirit Technique poured into the depths of his mind.

He soon had a profound understanding of this Soul Secret Art.

“Master Zhou, what’s wrong?”

At this moment, Chu Dieyi woke up, her eyes filled with curiosity as she watched Zhou Sui’s actions.

“Nothing.”

“Just a few insects outside. I’ve handled them already.”

Zhou Sui gently smiled.

After all, the invasion of several Golden Core Demon Cultivators was a minor matter.

His avatar had handled it singlehandedly. It was no big deal.

“Master Zhou, I want more.”

Chu Dieyi’s face flushed, looking at Zhou Sui with allure.

What?!

Hearing her words, Zhou Sui could hardly resist.

Soon, their bedroom was filled with unique sounds again.

Five years later.

In the blink of an eye, five years had passed.

During these five years, the Tri-Star Island Group remained safe and secure.

After dealing with five Golden Core Cultivators from Heisha Palace, no Cultivator dared to invade Immortal Mist City.

This attracted more and more fugitive Cultivators, which resulted in a surge in the city’s population, bringing in even more wealth.

The disciples of Heisha Palace dared not make rash moves, pretending as if nothing had happened; they couldn’t brag about losing five Golden Core Cultivators.

As for Giant Deer Island, they remained locked in a stalemate with the Sea Clan, with both sides trading blows.

There wouldn’t be a victor anytime soon. Instead, a balance was kept.

If no Nascent Soul Cultivator intervened, this stalemate could last a very long time.

Therefore, Zhou Sui spent five years cultivating peacefully on Immortal Mist Peak.

At this moment, in the silent room.

Boom!

A mysterious power poured into Zhou Sui’s body, causing a drastic transformation.

This was the power of the Obsession Gu.

At this moment, the Spiritual Root in his body was continuously refined and upgraded, reaching its limit.

Thump!

In an instant, Zhou Sui’s body shuddered, and he immediately sensed a transformation in his spiritual root, breaking through its bottleneck.

Fourth-grade spiritual root!

In that moment, he sensed a huge upgrade in his spiritual root aptitude, from a fifth-grade spiritual root to a fourth-grade spiritual root – a fundamental increase and change.

“Finally upgraded to a fourth-grade spiritual root.”

Zhou Sui sat cross-legged on the ground, an involuntary smile on his face.

Honestly, his spiritual root aptitude had been stuck at the fifth-grade for a long time now.

Even five years ago, he had already achieved 99% of a fifth-grade spiritual root, but had been unable to make a breakthrough.

But now, after five years of painstaking effort, his spiritual root aptitude finally underwent a transformation.

At this moment, he sensed that his efficiency in absorbing nature’s spiritual energy had increased by at least half.

Although it was only an increase by half, this small difference would stack up over the years, even amounting to a decade or more, hence the gap between a fourth and fifth grade spiritual root was quite substantial.

Moreover, with a fourth-grade spiritual root, even within a Nascent Soul sect, he could become an inner sect disciple.

Although there wasn’t much chance of becoming a Nascent Soul cultivator, there was still a considerable possibility of becoming a Golden Core cultivator.

In a Golden Core sect, such aptitude could even make him the sect elder among the inner sect disciples.

“So this is a fourth-grade spiritual root?”

“Not only has the efficiency of absorbing nature’s spiritual energy increased.”

“Even my comprehension has improved, showcasing the importance of spiritual root aptitude.”

Zhou Sui was overjoyed.

He had previously felt that his spiritual root aptitude was a bottleneck to his cultivation. A lower grade spiritual root was like a poor engine trying to power a sports car – quite difficult to achieve.

Of course, it wasn’t impossible, but merely extremely slow.

The higher his cultivation, the more severe the pullback.

After upgrading to a fourth-grade spiritual root, he found that his efficiency in absorbing nature’s spiritual energy normalized instantly.

It was almost the same as other Golden Core cultivators.

If he also got help from a partner, his cultivation efficiency would probably match that of a first-grade spiritual root.

At the same time, his comprehension also improved.

Even without the assistance of a book worm, he found it easier to understand various cultivation knowledge.

“I still need to rely on a Heavenly Spirit Root partner.”

“If I had several Heavenly Spirit Root partners, my spiritual root aptitude would improve even faster.”

Zhou Sui rubbed his chin.

Clearly, the benefits Chu Dieyi brought him were extremely significant.

The last time they practiced together, she brought a huge upgrade to his spiritual root.

If not for her Heavenly Spirit Root aptitude, he would probably have to spend decades more to upgrade to a fourth-grade spiritual root.

But now, with Chu Dieyi’s help, he quickly made it to the fourth grade and was still rapidly improving.

However, in the past five years, he didn’t get many opportunities to practice with Chu Dieyi.

After all, Chu Dieyi had already entered her cave and started her secluded cultivation, beginning her attempts to form a Nascent Soul.

Naturally, she couldn’t do such things with Zhou Sui.

But Zhou Sui didn’t mind because once Chu Dieyi advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, the benefits he could gain would be even greater.

He certainly wouldn’t sacrifice long-term benefits for short-term gains.

Apart from Chu Dieyi, Lin Yazhu was also in secluded cultivation, aiming to form her Nascent Soul.

Basically, both women were in seclusion at the same time.

If they both succeed, he would essentially have two Nascent Soul partners.

Just thinking about it excited him.

Practicing with Nascent Soul partners felt as if a minister was coupling with an empress.

It gave him a feeling of conquering an empress.

This sense of accomplishment was indescribable.
