Chapter 5: The System Function Can Also Be Upgraded

Shortly after, Chu Gang let out a few ghost-howling, wolf-wailing screams before passing out from the sheer pain.

Fortunately, Su Lang had closed the doors and windows beforehand. The excellent soundproofing Materials of the Spiritual Qi era ensured Chu Gang's screams did not carry outside, otherwise, it would have invited trouble.

"That feels so damn satisfying!"

Looking at Chu Gang, whose four limbs were broken, Su Lang revealed a refreshed smile, then pulled over a chair and sat down.

He hadn't forgotten that after activating the first function, he was also gifted the "attribute panel" ability!

"This function is great!"

Su Lang curled the corner of his mouth, "With this function, one can know oneself and the enemy, and be invincible in every battle. System, open the attribute panel!"

[Name]: Su Lang

[Race]: Human

[Aptitude Rank]: Turbid Body

[Realm Rank]: Elementary Body Tempering

[Attack Rank]: Elementary Body Tempering

[Defense Rank]: Elementary Body Tempering

[Movement Rank]: Elementary Body Tempering

[Stamina Rank]: Elementary Body Tempering

[Cultivation Technique Mastered]: Boundless Heart Sutra

[Activated System Function]: One-Click Cultivation Function (Rank 1)

"My Aptitude is still a Turbid Body, but that doesn't matter. Even without Aptitude, I can still Cultivate!"

Su Lang looked at the panel, his gaze moving to the 'Cultivation Technique Mastered' column.

"Boundless Heart Sutra?"

A moment later, Su Lang found information about this Cultivation Technique from his predecessor's memories.

It turned out that this was actually the highest-level main Cultivation Technique on Blue Star.

Logically speaking, given the unspoken rule that Advanced Cultivation Techniques are all monopolized and locked away, it should have been impossible for Su Lang to know about this technique.

In normal circumstances.

Unless it was a close relative or a Personal Disciple, experts might not pass on their Cultivation Techniques even until the day they died.

For one, it would be very dangerous if one's Cultivation Technique's weaknesses were seen through by enemies.

For another, people are selfish, and they certainly wouldn't want their good things to be spread everywhere!

If someone with higher Aptitude obtained their Cultivation Technique, wouldn't they be surpassed quickly? Wouldn't they be trampled down from the high Ranks quickly?

By then, they would have no share of status, wealth, power, or beauty!

Therefore, the monopoly of experts over Advanced Cultivation Techniques was very severe, and even the spread of Elementary Cultivation Techniques was severely restricted.

But the reality was that not only Su Lang, but every human on the planet knew of the Boundless Heart Sutra; even children knew it!

Because a thousand years ago, a human hero defied the world's will and made this strongest main Cultivation Technique public, allowing all of humanity to benefit infinitely!

And ever since then, other main Cultivation Techniques were gradually phased out, and everyone began to Cultivate the Boundless Heart Sutra.

"It's a pity that the public release of an Advanced Cultivation Technique was just that one instance."

Su Lang felt a bit of regret, then continued looking down the attribute panel, when suddenly his eyes lit up, "Rank 1? Could it be that the One-Click Cultivation Function can be upgraded!?"

"host, the One-Click Cultivation Function can be upgraded."

"Rank 2 requires 100 gold coins, and the Cultivation speed is 2 times the base speed."

"Rank 3 requires 1000 gold coins, and the Cultivation speed is 4 times the base speed."

"Rank 4 requires 10000 gold coins, and the Cultivation speed is 8 times the base speed."

"Rank 5 requires 100000 gold coins, …"

"Holy crap!!"

"In this way, if I keep upgrading, wouldn't the Cultivation speed be able to reach tens, hundreds, or thousands of times the base speed!"

"My one year of Cultivation would be equal to others' tens, hundreds, or thousands of years of Cultivation!? Holy crap, I'm going to be rich, I'm going to be rich!"

Su Lang was ecstatic, so excited that he jumped up from his chair.

He really wanted to upgrade the function to Advanced right now; that way, he could achieve Breakthroughs at lightning speed.

By then, wiping out the Broken Axe Hunting Group and getting revenge for himself would be a piece of cake!

But soon, Su Lang discovered that he had no money to upgrade the function at all; he only had 6 gold coins left now.

This was still 94 gold coins short of reaching Rank 2!

"Money, money, money! I need money!"

Su Lang paced back and forth in the room, "No money, what should I do?"

Suddenly, Su Lang's gaze fell upon Chu Gang.

Although this guy was definitely poor, even a mosquito is meat no matter how small…

Holding this thought, Su Lang dragged Chu Gang to the house across the way, then looted his body and his home clean.

"1 silver coin and 62 copper coins? Damn poor wretch!"

Looking at the small change in his hand, Su Lang slammed Chu Gang's front door shut hard.
