[Settling experience for 'Warding-Evil'...]
[You are a favored child of heaven in the Sword Pavilion, yet your light was overshadowed by others. Forced to hide in the shadows, unknown to people, your heart was filled with jealousy.]
On the interface of [The Book of a Hundred Lifetimes], words emerged.
The first was Perfected One Warding-Evil. Speaking of this Sword Pavilion Foundation Establishment Great Perfection Perfected One, his life could probably only be described with the words "tragic" and "miserable."
Perfected One Warding-Evil and Perfected One Vanquishing-Demon were of the same generation. Naturally, his glory was suppressed from a young age. Only later, when Perfected One Vanquishing-Demon switched to cultivating the Sword Dao, did he feel somewhat balanced psychologically, because it meant Perfected One Vanquishing-Demon's Dao path was cut off. As a result, once [Sky-shrouding] came out, he became a clown...
Because he cultivated [White Wax Gold]!
At that time, Perfected One Warding-Evil's emotions were quite broken: Here I am eagerly mocking Perfected One Vanquishing-Demon for having his Dao path cut off, and in the end, I don't have a Dao path either.
Who could withstand this?
[You obtained the Gold Talent: [Insignificant Person]!]
[Insignificant Person: You can actively reduce your own presence. The more people in the place where you are, the harder it is for anyone to notice your existence.]
A bit like [Knowledge-Perception Barrier]...
Although not as all-powerful as the genuine [Knowledge-Perception Barrier] and possessing quite a few limitations, it was still a powerful method after all. Used well, it might have miraculous effects.
[Settling experience for 'Wu Taian'...]
[You are the King Zhen Nan of the Dao Court, a collateral branch of the Tianwu imperial family. As the younger brother of the Dao Court's Son of Heaven, you always harbored an ambition to become the Son of Heaven.]
The settlement for the second Golden Nature was complete.
Looking at the densely packed life trajectory record belonging to "Wu Taian" on the panel, a look of great interest instantly appeared in the depths of Lu Yang's eyes.
The Dao Court... has always been very mysterious!
Even in this great chaos under heaven, the Dao Court hadn't made a move. The entire Jiangdong was closed off, making it hard for the outside world to understand its internal structure.
Now, the content of Wu Taian's settlement could exactly fill in Lu Yang's gaps in this regard. After all, he had never underestimated the Dao Court. A very simple example could prove it: looking at the world after the great chaos now, the Dao Court had probably become the strongest faction instead!
One had to know, the Perfected Lords hadn't manifested yet!
Yet apart from the Dao Court, the people capable of Seeking Golden Core in the other three factions were gone. Jun Tong and Perfected One Subduing-Spirits had just reached Foundation Establishment Great Perfection; attempting to seeking Golden Core was still too far for them.
Only the Dao Court suffered little loss.
Leaving aside other things, at least that Crown Prince of the Dao Court who currently holds the highest status definitely has hope of seeking Golden Core! I just don't know why he hasn't gone to seek it...
Just then, words suddenly appeared on the panel of [The Book of a Hundred Lifetimes]:
[You obtained the Gold Talent: Unwilling to be Subservient!]
[Unwilling to be Subservient: The more outstanding you are in your superior's eyes, and the more you gain your superior's regard, the more bonuses you receive when you betray your superior.]
"This..."
Lu Yang's expression was slightly peculiar. The 'betray bonus' of this Gold Talent was an all-around bonus ranging from divine abilities to spiritual power, and even to fortune.
Maximum up to double!
In other words, if he could raise the bonus to the extreme when betraying someone, it was enough to instantly skyrocket his own strength to double the original!
Don't look down on just double.
If considering the suddenness of the backstab, this doubled surge in bonus could even allow him to achieve a one-hit kill, giving the opponent no chance to turn the tables!
What a rebellious son talent...
Lu Yang rubbed his chin and continued to look at [The Book of a Hundred Lifetimes].
Next to settle was the Golden Nature of the Buddha child Dharma Aspect. Unlike the former two, the Dharma Aspect itself didn't have any complex experiences; just a few sentences and it was done.
[You obtained the Gold Talent: Reincarnated Spirit Child!]
[Reincarnated Spirit Child: You can transform yourself into a 'Primordial Spirit' and parasitise others without being detected, hiding yourself using another's shell.]
A lite version of [Marionette]?
Lu Yang frowned slightly upon seeing this, but quickly reacted: No, just different directions. [Marionette] wins in quantity and wider range.
Compared to it, although [Reincarnated Spirit Child] can only possess one person, it can hide the main body, and the possession won't be detected. It's equivalent to hiding oneself perfectly in the dark. If used in conjunction with [Marionette], as a mastermind behind the scenes, surely no one can detect me...
The more Lu Yang thought about it, the more peculiar he felt.
Why did it feel like with these talents settled, he was becoming more and more like a villain in storybooks? Clearly, he always aspired to be a good person.
Immediately after, [The Book of a Hundred Lifetimes] vibrated again.
This time, what was settled were the Golden Natures of Xiang Ye and Immortal Spirit Shangzhang.
[You obtained the Gold Talent: I Am the First to Ascend!]
[I Am the First to Ascend: When no one around you dares to do what you are doing, you can receive a blessing of fortune. The harder it is to do, the more fortune you get.]
[You obtained the Gold Talent: Fortune Does Not Fill the Eye]!]
[Fortune Does Not Fill the Eye: You can accumulate your own fortune, convert it into 'bad luck' and 'good luck', and distribute it to yourself and others.]
So many, too many...
Lu Yang's nose twitched, and he couldn't help but let out a satisfied grunt, feeling his mind filled to the brim by the talents settled by [The Book of a Hundred Lifetimes].
After all, the current him had a panel so gorgeous it could scare people to death.
[Name: Lu Yang]
[Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Great Perfection]
[Talents: [Unorthodox Prodigy] (White), [A Few Tricks Up Your Sleeve] (Purple), [Natural Immortal Spirit] (Gold), [Marionette] (Gold), [Divining Luck Drawing Lots] (Gold), [True Dragon Blood Descendant] (Gold), [Dragon-Slicing Platform] (Gold), [Turtle Dove Occupying the Magpie's Nest] (Gold), [Insignificant Person] (Gold), [Unwilling to be Subservient] (Gold), [Reincarnated Spirit Child] (Gold), [I Am the First to Ascend] (Gold), [Fortune Does Not Fill the Eye] (Gold)]
[Blessed Lands: [Heaven-and-Earth Graced Geng Metal Blessed Land], [Xuandu Blessed Land]]
[Divine Abilities: [Exquisite Heart], [Great Unity Embodying True Qi], [Convergence Origin Art], [Uphold Heaven's Principles], [One with the World], [Master of Armaments], [Unyielding Metal], [Solemn Mystic Frost], [Resonant Heaven Bell], [Heaven and Earth Solemn Killing Authority].]
[Treasure: [Qian Heaven All-Governing Myriad Phenomena] (Rank 2)]
[[The Book of a Hundred Lifetimes] Page Count: 91]
Look! Look at my harvest in this life!
No need to mention talents; they simply doubled.
As for Divine Abilities and Blessed land, except for those I obtained from [Seven Luminaries Heaven], all others were regained from Immortal Spirit Shangzhang using [Turtle Dove Occupying the Magpie's Nest].
Thinking of this, Lu Yang felt somewhat excited in his heart.
Having reached this step in this life, there is nothing left to be nostalgic about.
Lu Yang looked at his own body. The Lord of Heaven had raised Immortal Spirit Shangzhang very well. Divine Abilities were complete, Golden Nature was ready; he could attempt seeking Golden Core almost immediately.
Why not... give it a try?
Either way, he was going to restart. Why not charge for the Golden Position once before restarting!
So far, I've always watched others seeking Golden Core and haven't truly experienced it. What are the difficulties and dangers of Seeking Golden Core? I still know nothing about this...
Lu Yang never fought an unprepared battle.
According to his plan, he must seek the Perfected Lord stature in the next life. Since this life was already approaching its end, why not make use of waste, which could be utilized for the next life!
If I succeed, that's best. I'll directly bring the Grotto-Heaven to the next life, starting as a Perfected Lord.
Even if I don't succeed, I can test for errors in advance. In case there are any pitfalls in Seeking Golden Core that I accidentally discover, I can think of ways to deal with them in the next life.
With this thought, Lu Yang hesitated no longer.
Seeking Golden Core!
