[Name: Su Chen (Taichu Divine Sect's errand boy)]
[Qualifications: mid-grade mixed spiritual roots (gold, wood, water, fire, earth)]
[Cultivation: second level of Qi gathering stage (2300/15000)]
[Innate magical power (1/100): Not awakened]
"One hundred fragments are needed to awaken his innate magical power."
Su Chen looked at the information on the panel, and his originally agitated mood immediately calmed down. If he thinks about it carefully, the ordinary soul crystal fragments exploded from a magic corpse can allow him to awaken his innate magical powers easily.
Then this so-called innate magical power is too cheap. But compared to other people's way of awakening relies on luck. Right now, in his current situation, as long as he gathers enough fragments, he can awaken his talent, which is undoubtedly much better. Awakening of innate magical power is only a matter of time.
"Although 100 soul crystal fragments are a lot, judging from the size of this tomb, there must be quite a few magic corpses in it."
"If I can clear this dungeon completely, I might be able to collect enough fragments to awaken my innate magical power."
"Besides, the Ancient Cultivator's Tomb dungeon will be refreshed every three months. Even if I don't have enough soul crystal fragments this time, I can just try again a few more times at worst."
Thinking of this, Su Chen was not so eager to awaken his innate magical powers. As the saying goes, you can't eat stinky tofu in a hurry. In addition to awakening his innate magical power, he has more important things to do right now.
For example, improve the Purple Cloud Divine Light above the level of perfection, and then complete the second novice task to improve his spiritual root qualifications to a higher level. This is undoubtedly the most crucial thing for him at the moment.
Everything else can be postponed until this is done. Besides, right now, as long as he can clear this dungeon. Then the matter of improving the Purple Divine Light technique and awakening his innate magical power might be accomplished at the same time, so he didn't have to worry about it.
After thinking this through, Su Chen turned his attention back to the underground tomb palace in front of him.
Experience points, soul crystal fragments, skill fragments—this tomb has already brought him too many surprises.
Recalling the changes in himself over the past half month, Su Chen couldn't help but sigh: "Two years of hard training is not as good as half a month of playing games. This proves the old saying that hard work is important, but the direction of hard work is equally important."
"If I had just practiced and not played the game seriously, there wouldn't be such a huge change now."
"Cultivation of immortality... Who on earth created this magical game?"
After he finished speaking, Su Chen immediately walked into the deep passage and headed toward the depths of the underground palace. Be fearless and move forward!
Although the unknown represents danger, it often also represents opportunity, and when there is no worry about life and death, the unknown represents... only opportunities!
In Su Chen's eyes, the unknown ancient tomb is such a treasure land with only opportunities and no dangers.
The magic corpse of an ancient cultivator? They are just a bunch of walking experience packs and soul crystal fragments—not worth mentioning!
"Just wait; I, the Taoist priest, will soon help you get rid of your pain and return to where you were supposed to be."
"I, Su Chen, am a hard-working... and kind person."
[You killed a Qi gathering stage magic corpse and gained 80 experience points, Soul Crystal Fragment (white)*1]
[Current experience points: 9150]
[Innate magical power (32/100): Not awakened]
Su Chen picked up the scattered light spots on the bodies of the magic corpses that he had just killed and turned to look at the bronze door next to the magic corpse.
"Except for the area behind this bronze door, the underground tomb seems to have been explored completely by me. There should be no other magic corpses or Qingxuan puppets left outside."
That's right, after paying the price of resurrection hundreds of times, Su Chen finally explored the entire underground tomb. During this process, he killed nearly a hundred magic corpses and a large number of Qingxuan puppets.
It was also at this time that Su Chen discovered that the Soul Crystal Fragment did not necessarily explode after killing every magic corpse, but it was a precious item that only appeared once in every three magic corpses.
In other words, if he wanted to collect the soul crystal fragments needed to awaken his innate magical power, he would have to explore the ancient tomb dungeon twice more. But even so, the nearly around 10,000 experience points he had collected during this period made his trip worthwhile.
Not to mention that his combat experience and technique proficiency level have been greatly improved during this period.
Not only did Floating Cloud Steps and Water Dragon Roar reach the level of "perfection" in the high-intensity battle with the magic corpses,
Even the Sharp Technique broke through to a level above perfection during this process.
This was also the first time that Su Chen knew what the realm above the perfection level was.
[Sharp Technique (Extreme State)]
[Effect: Use Qi to transform into a blade; even metal and stone cannot stop it.]
It is different from the Qianjin power, which can only briefly cover the weapon at the beginning.
When the Sharp Technique reached an extreme state, Su Chen felt that the original Sharp Technique had changed from an ordinary technique to a level close to divine power.
Now, not only can he add the power of Qianjin to any object, but he can even directly use his spiritual power to condense a special Qianjin sword, reaching the level of turning Qi into a sword.
You have to know that before the foundation-building stage, few cultivators can use Qi to transform swords, let alone control objects.
Because this not only requires the cultivators to have an extremely high level of control over their spiritual power but also requires them to have sufficient spiritual power.
Although Su Chen does not have much spiritual power at the moment, his control over the golden spiritual power has reached an abnormal level.
However, 'transforming Qi into a sword' is not very useful to him now.
It can only be regarded as a means to enrich his long-range attacks.
Speaking of power, turning Qi into a sword is not as reliable as attaching the "power of gold" to the weapon and then performing the Water Dragon Roar.
After all, his Water Dragon Roar has now reached the level of perfection.
It is already possible to make the sword generate fifty vibrations within one second.
And every ten times, the original sword power can be multiplied.
The force of fifty shocks increased the power of Su Chen's swordsmanship by five times.
In addition, the Purple Cloud Divine Light has a restraining effect on the magic corpse.
This allowed Su Chen to easily kill the magic corpses in the tomb.
You should know that a magic corpse at the fifth level of the Qi gathering stage is equivalent to having both the physique of a physical cultivator and the magic skills and techniques of a magic cultivator.
In terms of strength, they are often one or two levels higher than ordinary cultivators.
Su Chen can easily defeat them even if there is a certain restraint, but his current strength is indeed not to be underestimated.
However, due to the lack of reference points and the fact that all his current energy is focused on exploring the dungeon, as a result, Su Chen does not feel how powerful he is now.
