I Cheated While Cultivating

Chapter 106: Five-Colored Divine Light

“Congratulations! You’ve hit the jackpot! You’ve obtained a special skill card: Five-Color Divine LightfCopper].”

“Five-Color Divine Light [Copper]: Can manifest the true essence of the Five Elements Path, and can strip away anything in the world that belongs to the five elements.”

Holy shit!

Zhou Heng almost jumped out of bed, his face bursting with smiles, his grinning mouth nearly stretching to the back of his skull.

What a surprise!

Truly, what a surprise!

It was actually the Five-Color Divine Light, the legendary Great Divine Power. It was said that at the peak of its cultivation, one could become the master of the Five Elements Path, able to control the very root of the Five Elements Path.

The Path of the Five Elements is the foundation of all matter; to be in control of the root of the Five Elements Path is almost the same as controlling the material world!

Theoretically, the Great Divine Power of the Five-Color Divine Light could counter anything “material.”

But reaching such a state is far from easy. To some extent, the Five-Color Divine Light is almost unstoppable.

This is definitely a trump card of extreme power!

No doubt about it!

“Hey, if I use this Five-Color Divine Light skill card while a senior member or even the Sect leader of the Five Elements Sect is around, who knows what kind of chain reaction it would trigger.”

Zhou Heng couldn’t help but let his thoughts wander.

Of course, it would be better if such a situation didn’t arise, but just thinking about it felt quite amusing.

Next was the remaining Copper Fortune Bag.

In fact, after the “huge win” from the Gold Fortune Bag, Zhou Heng felt he should be indifferent to whatever came out of the Copper Fortune Bag; whatever it was, he should be able to face it calmly.

“Open the Copper Fortune Bag!”

“Congratulations! You’ve hit the jackpot! You’ve obtained a special skill card: Character ProjectionfCopper].”

Character projection?

What is this?

Zhou Heng was first stunned, then immediately shocked.

Holy crap, the Copper Fortune Bag can actually produce something like this??

“Character ProjectionjCopper]: Allows you to summon a projection of a person you are aware of. You must be sufficiently familiar with the person to successfully summon the projection, and the more familiar you are, the stronger the projection’s power, with at least 70% of the original’s strength, lasting for five minutes.”

After reading the introduction to this skill card, Zhou Heng’s first reaction was that it was incredibly powerful, downright heaven-defying.

If he knew someone like the Heavenly Sovereign, Buddha Tathagata, or the Jade Emperor, wouldn’t that mean he could summon projections with 70% of their power?

But he quickly realized that he was just daydreaming.

Although the Character Projection skill was extremely heaven-defying, the user himself was of paramount importance.

Zhou Heng sorted through his thoughts and realized that he actually knew very few powerful people.

The strongest he knew was You Ziheng, who was only of the Fifth Rank, and he wasn’t very familiar with him. He estimated that even if he could summon his projection, it would only be one with 70% of his strength.

“This really is a skill that tests your social network,” Zhou Heng thought somewhat helplessly. He didn’t have many opportunities to interact with important figures, which should improve a lot after he officially joined the Pure Yang Palace.

If he could find a chance to get familiar with that legendary Divine First Rank from the Pure Yang Palace, then he could summon a Divine First Rank projection anytime and anywhere.

That would be completely heaven-defying, right?

“Hmm, I still have to stay grounded,” Zhou Heng calmed his excited emotions and murmured to himself, “After all, skill cards are things that are gone once used.

“These skill cards can serve as a last resort, but I must not rely on them to the point of losing vigilance and overconfidence. The foundation of the Martial Path is still my own cultivation accomplishments.”

After adjusting his mindset,

Zhou Heng once again embarked on a laborious cultivation journey.

“You are currently circulating your Inner Qi to diligently cultivate the Martial Arts, ‘Innate Skill’ [Seventh Rank], proficiency +1.”

“You continue to circulate Inner Qi to cultivate the Martial Arts, ‘Innate Skill’ [Seventh Rank], triggering the ‘Heaven Rewards the Diligent’ bonus, proficiency +10.”

Two days later.

Zhou Heng finished his morning breathing exercises and retracted the stance work of the Innate Skill, then took Bai Yuejian out for a walk and bought some local snacks.

The little girl was lively by nature and had become very familiar with Zhou Heng over the days. Sometime, she would even playfully climb up along his legs as if he were a tree.

However, children were easy to appease, a piece of candy from Zhou Heng would keep her content for a while.

At such moments, Zhou Heng couldn’t help but think of another girl who liked candy, who probably didn’t even have time to eat candy now.

After all, the Zhou Tian Boundary Officer had seemed quite busy since some time ago, and she was also a disciple of the Pure Yang Palace, so there must be sect affairs to handle.

“Big brother, are you going to checkout the latest ranking list?” Bai Yuejian’s small hand was held by Zhou Heng as she asked, “This way leads to the Fengya Tavern, my father and brother also go there to see the updated list on the first day of every month.”

“Ranking list?” Startled by the inquiry, Zhou Heng remembered that today was the first day of July, exactly when the latest issue of the Heaven, Earth, and Man rankings were published, “Let’s go and see.”

He was mainly concerned about whether or not the embarrassing ‘Broken Bones Injury’ had been changed.

In the past month, his battle record remained ferocious, yet he hadn’t relied much on the Six Paths Plucking Plum Hand, mostly using the saber, occasionally the sword.

The nickname ‘Dual Extremes of Sword and Saber1 seemed quite good.

The geographical location of the Bai family’s martial arts hall was advantageous, connecting in all directions, and not far from the Fengya Tavern, so in a short while, Zhou Heng along with Bai Yuejian arrived there.

By this time, Fengya Tavern was already packed, young and old alike were crowding to view the latest issues of the rankings, and bursts of exclamation could be heard from time to time.

“Fang Wen is truly formidable, he’s been occupying the first place on the ranking list for five years now!”

“Hiss! Who is Li Wuwang? He just broke into the top twenty of the ranking list out of nowhere, never heard of him before!”

“The Fairy of Qiong Peak has firmly secured a spot in the top ten.”

“They are all disciples of Great Sects and notable families, when will us ordinary martial artists ever get a chance to be on the list?”

“I have a way, go home and sleep, dream, you’ll have everything in dreams, haha!”

The crowd’s discussions were incessant and chaotic when mixed together.

Arriving somewhat late, Zhou Heng could not squeeze through the crowd and could only search for information related to himself amidst these discussions and exclamations.

It was at that moment he spotted Sheng Xinrou and others.

These few were also here to watch the latest issue of the rankings and were discussing Zhou Heng.

“Yikes, did the ranking of ‘Broken Bones Injury’ Zhou Heng go up?”

“My heavens, this battle record is simply too astonishing. It’s unbelievable. And his Martial Arts… it’s estimated to be Sect Fifth Rank, maybe even Absolute Fourth Rank?!”

“Too strong, such rate of improvement is truly an example for us all!”

“Hey hey, don’t get it wrong, Xinrou, Zhou Heng’s nickname is no longer ‘Broken Bones Injury’, his best technique is with the saber.”

Zhou Heng perked up upon hearing this, his ears all but erect.

What was his new nickname.

“But ‘Purple Lightning Thunder Saber’ doesn’t seem to be that strong either…” Sheng Xinrou muttered softly.
