Chapter 12: Diamond Lottery Loot
Yuanshan sat comfortably on his bed. High-quality materials were used to make the mattresses. He ate cooked steak and rice for his dinner.
He lost a lot of points because of that.
Once more, he navigated to the same system panel. Observing the 32 on his lottery spin user interface.
"Oh yeah, I have been saving up lately"
Even when he opened the lottery spin, the size of the wheel astounded him.
Possessing almost a thousand awards.
Varying between 99.9% and 0.01%.
He had to enlarge the panel's area to see it more clearly because it appeared to be enormous.
In addition, he was curious about his appearance.
He commanded the system panel to become a mirror, and it did so quickly.
Transforming into a sizable piece of clear, unstained glass.
Yuanshan looked over it and saw that his eyes had turned dark grey.
He enjoyed it a lot more than the ones he had before.
Glancing over his face now, he appeared quite charming and attractive. Ideal moisture levels for both flavors.
The normal nose bridge and slightly off-red lips.
In addition, his hair was grey rather than black.
They extended to about halfway up his back.
His body came next. It was smooth and incredibly white.
The system also complimented him,
[Like a young child, you are soft, pale, and fragile]
Yuanshan did not laugh it off.
Simply felt a little strange.
Yuanshan didn't go to check his other parts because he felt humiliated. Honestly, I'm humiliated.
The cloak of the black sky suited him perfectly. The next thing he chose was to learn everything about the lottery, which is customary.
First and foremost, he could change the lottery background to his liking, but more sensitive backgrounds required him to pay more points. Custom color grading would also be employed, with more shiny neon-like hues requiring points. He would also choose to change the lettering and names of the objects displayed to match the rewards' own style.
For example, he could change the text on Diamond Bracelets and change or alter them till they resembled dazzling diamonds.
But that wasn't all.
He could utilize a lot more tweaks to help make the lottery more enticing.
The lottery levels came next.
Bronze was the tier he was utilizing.
Diamond and platinum were the next tiers above.
Diamond featured over 500 awards, with payouts ranging from 0.01% to 50% of the initial jackpot.
In addition, they doubled their %.
More than 200 awards, or between 0.01% and 20% of the original, were included in the Platinum, which also had a ton of things.
However, platinum required 100 lottery spins for a single spin, whereas diamond needed 10 lottery spins for a single spin.
Yuanshan eventually opted to use one diamond spin and the rest of his spins for normal spins.
He had a total of 32 spins.
When he opened the diamond lottery from the system panel, a magnificent lottery wheel with many intricate designs and engravings appeared in front of him.
It had 500 different awards in all, and the "Spin" lower UI shone like a diamond.
Further appealing to Yuanshan in all the right ways.
Yuanshan held his breath and selected the "Spin" option.
Immediately, streaming diamond-like energy emerged from the button, spinning the wheel.
The brilliant and reflective hues make it captivating.
The lottery spins and slows down.
Yuanshan held his breath as the wheel approached a 21.3% reward, but it passed it, and he sighed with disappointment.
It eventually settled on a 23.1% prize called "Seven Colors Qi Pill".
The award entered his inventory as he eagerly opened it and read its description.
[Item: Seven-Color Qi Pill]
[Grade: Elite].
"Elite.... E-elite hehe"
Yuanshan was going to chuckle, but he held back.
Which was very difficult for him.
Given that he had never expected to receive anything like this. It helped him a lot, and as a strange youngster who had been oppressed, suppressed, and remained strange his entire life, he couldn't let this bliss go.
"Wow... This means. I can probably head for the next stage now," he thought to himself. He was close to the next stage and if he stabilized his foundation, he was not going to have a hard time just absorbing the Qi and breaking through a major stage while advancing many more layers."
[Description: The Seven Colors Qi Pill is an elite-level pill. An advancement to Five Elements Qi Pill. It cleanses the meridians and temporarily allows the users to absorb Qi three times faster than usual. It fills its user Dantian to the brim with Qi for at least seven times. With the only limit being Golden Core Cultivators. It helps to advance more than seven layers of cultivation and only below the Golden Core]
[Four Days Later]
#####
It's been four days in total. The night was in the middle. Yuanshan embraced the erie moon glow as cold breezes swept past his window.
All around him, the Qi moved like a fog of milk.
Not far away was the Spirit Gathering Stage.
[After Three Hours]
#####
"Hah... It's time to just settle in and take one stride to the heavens now, hehe".
His eyes showed that he was excited. Without any delay, he set about strengthening his base.
After an hour, he eventually picked up the Seven Colors Qi Pill and dispersed the Qi cloud.
The Pill was as wide as his thumb and a half.
Seven vibrant colors and a subtle yet strong scent of freshness.
A slender Qi beam emanating from the pill spun around itself, finally condensing into a tiny spiral with seven distinct colors.
Yuanshan put it in his mouth and took a swallow.
It passed down his neck and into his esophagus first.
Allowing a surge of Qi to enter his meridians. Finally, it made its way to his Dantian.
The natural essence of the pill was enhanced by the rushing of stored Qi to the pill in the Dantian.
Then, like a grape, a tiny layer of the tablet peeled off.
He didn't have to wait long for his Dantian to fill with Qi.
As the natural Qi was polished, the Qi flowed in chaotic patterns.
His Dantian was gleaming brightly, its walls growing increasingly resilient.
It wasn't long before he began to go forward layer by layer.
He advanced to the eighth stratum of the Spirit Gathering Stage after a protracted period.
He began to absorb the inherent spiritual essence of the world and channel it into his own new spiritual Qi.
His Qi began to gradually change into spiritual Qi.
10 %, 20 %, 37%, 55%, 67%, 78%, 93%, 100%
Now, all of his Qi became Spiritual Qi. He experienced a great increase in power.
Right now, his physique is incredibly beneficial.
He chose to use two more diamond spins and reserve his two remaining spins for a later time, settling into his new cultivation level.
Yuanshan restarted the system panel, accessed the diamond lottery, and tapped the "Spin" user interface.
The button that spun the intricately designed lotto spin was powered by the same energy.
It spun around and proceeded through numerous rewards, only to pass them.
It ultimately landed on a 29.2% reward after missing the 18.8% prize.
[The Medium level item "Golden Crow's Beak" has been acquired by you]
Other than selling it, he had no idea what to do with the object.
He eventually utilized his next spin once again.
The lotto spun, missed a 14.8% payout, then hit several more payouts between 10 and 20 percent, but ended up with a 15.6% payout.
[You have acquired the "Unseen Presence" high-level martial art]
Yuanshan studied the description and did some research on the new fighting style.
[Martial art: The Unseen Presence]
[Rank: High]
[Description: Practitioners of this martial style can move stealthily. He is capable of blinding himself in a variety of settings, hiding his Qi, and making any sound on his own.
Yuanshan hailed it as "pretty solid" and, without further ado, began to practice and cultivate his newly acquired martial skills.
