The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl-Chapter 540 - 537: Spirit Art Worth 50 Heaven-defying Value

Why is there no reaction?

Xin Lin felt somewhat disappointed and tried again.

The remaining four energy stones still showed no reaction at all; the spiritual energy within the stones did not increase.

Is it possible that the Life Book is tricking me again?

Heaven-defying Points.

The frustrated Xin Lin ignored the frantic bidding going on around her and confronted the Heaven-defying Book.

"Life Book, what kind of useless junk did you give me? Plenty of words, but no use at all."

"Life Book Prompt: Products of the Life Book are guaranteed of high quality. The Five Elements Qi Gathering Technique can increase the spiritual energy content of the energy stones, but only those produced by the Life Book. Energy stones from street vendors are not effective."

Uh... Xin Lin was stunned.

So her Life Book was scorning the intermediate Qi Stones from Xuantian Sect for not being of high enough grade.

Could the Life Book be any more capricious?

They’re just stones; how can they be distinguished as high or low, noble or lowly?

Xin Lin felt the pain.

Only recognizing the renowned Qi Stones from the Life Book meant that she had to use the Opportunity Dice again to get some Qi Stones.

Biting her teeth, Xin Lin used another 50 Heaven-defying Points and got 5 new Qi Stones.

Xin Lin examined the newly acquired Qi Stones, which looked no different from intermediate ones, pinching one and reluctantly reciting the Five Elements Qi Gathering Technique once more.

This time, as soon as Xin Lin finished reciting the mnemonic, she felt something different.

The Qi Stone in her palm moved slightly, as if a warm current of air quickly flowed into the stone.

It’s working!

Xin Lin looked around; under the effect of Fu Xi’s Energy, she could see the spiritual energy in Black Brilliance Market flowing towards the Qi Stone in her hand.

Unlike the previous time when Xin Lin used Gathering Spirit to absorb the Fire Spirit into her body, this technique was like an indiscriminate eater, absorbing any spiritual energy lingering in the nearby air into the Qi Stone in Xin Lin’s palm.

The originally empty Qi Stone quickly absorbed the spiritual energy.

In just a few breaths, the spiritual energy in the Qi Stone increased from none to twenty percent... thirty percent... fifty percent... sixty percent... seventy percent. Finally, at seventy percent spiritual energy, the Qi Stone stopped absorbing further.

Xin Lin’s once empty Qi Stone now contained seventy percent spiritual energy.

It seems the maximum it could reach was seventy percent.

Xin Lin realized.

She took out another Qi Stone and began the absorption process.

Similar to the previous stone, this Qi Stone rapidly absorbed the remaining spiritual energy.

So far, the surrounding Qi had been absorbed by the Qi Stones in Xin Lin’s hand through the Five Elements Qi Gathering Technique.

It’s a pity, the spiritual energy here is quite limited.

As Xin Lin lamented, just when she thought she could only absorb one and a half Qi Stones that night, something jaw-dropping happened.

The process of the Qi Stone absorbing Qi continued.

Where is the spiritual energy coming from?

Xin Lin wondered.

The spiritual energy around had clearly been completely scavenged.

Following the source of the spiritual energy, Xin Lin’s gaze fell on a table not far away.

On the table, there lay a hundred intermediate Qi Stones from Xuantian Sect.

During the time Xin Lin was secretly cultivating the Five Elements Qi Gathering Technique, Bai You had sold bags of twenty Qi Stones, purchased by a Xuan Transformation Realm Martial Artist and a Great Spirit Master for one thousand gold coins and 1,100 gold coins, respectively.

Now, the spiritual energy being absorbed by the Qi Stone in Xin Lin’s hand was coming from those intermediate Qi Stones.
