Extraordinary Realm from Persuasion System-Chapter 630 - 227: New Era, One Man’s Invincibility!
"What's going on?!"
He discovered the System had sneakily upgraded itself without his knowledge. Zhang Beixing was not just surprised but also intensely curious. He had never encountered anything like this before. This made him eager to see the changes from the upgrade.
So he took a closer look. He then discovered that, after the upgrade, his recommended task panel had undergone some changes.
[Recommendation: Perfect Ultimate Skill, attain Transcendence! Difficulty 'S+' → '?', create and continuously perfect an Ultimate Skill, reward for each practice: 10 → ? Ability Points (Completed, Repeatable)]
[Recommendation: Crossing the River with a Reed, leaving no trace in the snow! Difficulty: A+, master any Lightness Technique, light as a feather, afoot chasing cars, reward for every two practices: 5 Ability Points (Completed, Repeatable)] 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦
[Recommendation: Flesh into Saint, Vajra Indestructibility! Difficulty: S+, temper one's body, withstand bullets, reward for blocking ten bullets with the body: 10 Ability Points (Completed, Repeatable)]
[Recommendation: Slay enemies with Sword Mastery, sword breaks all spells! Difficulty: S+, master Sword Mastery, slay enemies with your sword, reward for every three people killed: 10 Ability Points. (Incomplete, Current Experience: 0/10,000)]
[Recommendation: Flying Petals and Leaves, Qi Control! Difficulty: A+, master any Hidden Weapon technique, control the weapon after it leaves your hand, reward for every two successful manipulations: 5 Ability Points (Completed, Repeatable)]
As expected, with the increase in attributes and his body advancing to the [Flesh Martial Saint] stage, the difficulty and rewards of Zhang Beixing's recommended tasks also underwent a proportional reduction.
[Qi Control] and [Crossing the River with a Reed] dropped straight to A-level. The recommendation for [Oizaki's Eight Challenges] was gone altogether.
But that wasn't the most important part. The most important thing was that, after this upgrade, Zhang Beixing noticed an added status behind these recommended tasks.
The 'Completed' status was self-explanatory. It was the 'Incomplete' ones that intrigued him.
Experience 0/10,000?
What does this mean? Zhang Beixing wondered, somewhat puzzled. Does this mean that as long as I fill this experience bar, I'll be able to complete this recommended task?
He felt it was quite possible, so he rummaged through his belongings. Soon, he pulled out a Wooden Sword souvenir he had bought while visiting the Ancient Rome Colosseum a couple of days ago. He had originally bought it as a souvenir for his family, never expecting it to be useful like this.
Zhang Beixing sat down cross-legged. He placed the Wooden Sword on his lap. Closing his eyes, he calmed his mind and circulated the Postnatal Five Qi inside his body, emulating the previous conditions during [Qi Control], transmitting the Postnatal Five Qi into the Wooden Sword. He could feel an invisible connection forming with it.
"Rise!"
Zhang Beixing opened his eyes and gave a light shout, manipulating the Postnatal Five Qi to lift it.
In an instant.
BUZZ—
The Wooden Sword emitted a soft hum and levitated an inch above his knees.
Zhang Beixing was somewhat surprised at this sight. Previously, he hadn't even possessed the ability to make the Wooden Sword levitate. At most, he could only make it hover for a moment as it fell. The two might seem similar, but in reality, they were entirely different concepts.
Making the sword hover was passive, akin to jamming a stick into a spinning gear to stop it. Lifting the sword, however, was Zhang Beixing's active control. He himself was the gear, spinning of his own accord. He had transformed from a mere observer into the one in control. The magnitude and difficulty of this leap were immense!
It must be the feedback from my Mental Attribute increasing to 210.
However, actively levitating the Wooden Sword is really tiring. Zhang Beixing murmured, feeling his Spiritual Power and Postnatal Five Qi rapidly depleting.
He was just about to try and control it. But at that moment.
POP—
As if reaching a limit, a silent thud sounded in Zhang Beixing's mind. Suddenly, the connection he had established with the Wooden Sword shattered.
Zhang Beixing wasn't discouraged as he watched the Wooden Sword lose control and fall to the ground. After all, merely being able to make the Wooden Sword levitate under his control was already a huge breakthrough. He could accept it even if he didn't ultimately succeed. Besides, his current attempt was focused on the System!
After the Wooden Sword fell, Zhang Beixing immediately turned to the System. He saw that on the status bar for [Slay enemies with Sword Mastery, sword breaks all spells], the experience points had changed from the initial 0/10,000 to 1/10,000!
"I was right!" Seeing this, Zhang Beixing showed excitement.
He could gain experience just by practicing. This was simply amazing.
After all, if Zhang Beixing excelled at anything, it was persistence and endurance—no boasting, he was truly top-notch in that regard! When he first transmigrated and was still incredibly weak, he could still grit his teeth and stubbornly run over ten kilometers every day to train.
This experience bar of 10,000 repetitions.
"A piece of cake!" Zhang Beixing declared. Although controlling the sword remotely was tiring, a mere ten thousand repetitions were nothing!
The only question for him now was what would happen once this experience bar was maxed out. But it would undoubtedly be related to this recommended task.
"Let's start training!" Zhang Beixing said.
Now that his goal was clear, all he needed to do was train intensely and without pause. He aimed to fill this 10,000-point experience bar as soon as possible.
