Chapter 48: Sword Aura

“At first, I just…I thought that…I thought that I could only increase Laziness in the auxiliary system by making you do chores.”

Watching Zhou Bai explain, Christina scoffed and said, “Elsa.”

Slam.

Seeing the broom Elsa brought over in her mouth, Zhou Bai smiled. “This is truly…amazing. Christina, when did you teach Elsa how to fetch things?”

Christina looked at the floor and said slowly, “The floor in the room has gotten dirtier in the days I’ve been in lock-in.”

Seeing Christina stare at him, Zhou Bai took a deep breath and shouted, “What do you mean, Tina?”

He grabbed the broom and yelled at Christina. “Do I need a dog to fetch it for me? I can get it myself!

“From now on, I’ll be sweeping this room. Nobody try to take my job.”

Watching Zhou Bai sweep and mop the floor and do the chores, Christina immediately became content.

“Not bad. Hm, let me see where you’re up to now…”

Zhou Bai did his chores while listening to Christina’s instructions.

It was apparent that after Christina’s Primordial Spirit Value increased to 99, she remembered part of her knowledge on Tao practice. Her knowledge of theories rose incredibly. She was more than sufficient to be Zhou Bai’s teacher.

Under her instruction, Zhou Bai felt himself improving visibly every day. He became familiar with the basic theories of Tao practice, all sorts of keywords, common phrases, and basic theories.

Just like that, Zhou Bai practiced Laziness while Christina began practicing her Divine Map. At night, she would teach Zhou Bai. Several days passed like this.

“It’s finally enough.” Zhou Bai looked at the board of the auxiliary practice system and smiled contently.

Degree of Taoification: 0%

Primordial Spirit Value: 99

Divine Map: Deva Nine Disasters

Laziness: 2,250

Then he looked at the Taiyi Disc.

Sumeru: Stand like iron, sit like steel, lie like a mountain. Adjusts the perception of Spark around the body depending on posture to form a defensive barrier.

Method of Practice: (Zhou Bai skipped over this)

Laziness (0/2,200)

Recalling the pain of his bones reconstructing last time, Zhou Bai lay on the bed this time and put a towel in his mouth. Then he injected 2,200 points of Laziness into the star point.

Instantly, Zhou Bai felt his body tremble as if electricity shot through it. An invisible power surged through his body, spiraling around in a special pattern. It seemed to leave something in his body.

Then Zhou Bai felt his primordial spirit tremble. A towering, empty yet vigorous aura spread out from his mind.

Zhou Bai thought, Huh? This time it only took such a short amount of time? That must mean that it’s not just enhancement of the physical body this time.

But Zhou Bai looked at his condition. He happened to be lying down anyway, so he thought he might as well test out his defense.

Zhou Bai looked at Christina. “Tina, try to attack me.”

“Huh?”

“I told you to attack me. I want to…”

“You’re the one who asked for it!” Christina roared with laughter, jumping into the air. She opened her mouth and spit out a ray of sword aura.

“Meowhahahaha! I can test out the power of the first star point I practiced, sword aura.”

Christina had been applying herself to practicing her Divine Map. Finally, after her Primordial Spirit Value reached 99, she finished practicing the first star point.

Regarding Christina’s practice speed: Ordinary practitioners need at least half a month to practice this first star point, but she only used a few days.
