I Can Fix My Talent in Hundred Lives

"Boom, crackle—!"

The thunder roared, shaking the entire universe!

Bolts of primordial magnetism-ending divine thunder crashed down, smashing into the overwhelming swarm of poison scorpions.

In an instant, billions of scorpions were reduced to dust under the thunder’s onslaught, and the pitch-black poisonous miasma was also obliterated by the thunder, dissipating into the void.

"Sizzle—!"

The remaining thunder did not rest, striking directly at the purple-robed cultivator’s Ten Thousand Poisons Dharma Body.

The green scales were hit by the thunder, instantly emitting black smoke...

The poisonous aura was suppressed by the thunder, causing the Dharma Body to tremble slightly, and the surrounding poisonous menace weakened, clearly wounded.

...

On a green mountain, Chen Sheng stood with his hands behind his back.

Time flowed slowly, as spirit lights flashed one after another.

The figures of Qi Mang, Golden Saint, Yuan Ji, and Yuan Ba were successively transported out by the power of the mystical mountain.

Then they were brought by Chen Sheng, steadily landing on the ground.

Despite showing signs of fatigue, the four had a hidden look of joy, clearly having experienced a tough battle.

On the celestial ranking, their mountain-conquering information was recorded.

[Qi Mang, Golden Saint, stopped at the Fifth Layer!]

[Yuan Ba, Yuan Ji, stopped at the Third Layer!]

Chen Sheng glanced at the four, his expression indifferent, completely unsurprised.

With their cultivation, achieving such results was already commendable.

He had personally traversed these tests before, knowing the difficulty of each mountain layer.

To pass the Fifth Layer, one needs the battle power of the Void Refining Eleventh Tribulation, the Sixth Layer requires Void Refining Twelfth Tribulation...

The Seventh Layer even requires the strength of Invincible Void Refining...

The four composed themselves, quickly approached Chen Sheng, and bowed respectfully to greet him.

Chen Sheng slightly raised his hand, signaling them to rise, and directly inquired in a calm tone:

"Tell me, what are your gains from this mountain trial?"

Qi Mang cupped his hands in response, with a hint of joy in his voice:

"Master, this time I passed the first five layers of the mountain, earning a total of thirty contribution points."

Golden Saint nodded slowly beside him, echoing: "The same, gained thirty contribution points."

Chen Sheng nodded slightly, his gaze shifting to Yuan Ji and Yuan Ba, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.

Yuan Ji quickly spoke up, his tone sincere:

"Senior Brother, we stopped at the Third Layer, each earning ten contribution points."

Yuan Ba also nodded repeatedly, with a somewhat regretful expression.

Upon hearing this, Chen Sheng meticulously inquired about the details of how they earned contribution points during the trial, and secretly pondered:

"Five points for the First Layer, five points for the Second Layer, ten points for the Third Layer, ten points for the Fourth Layer..."

"Calculating this way, I wonder if the next layer is fifteen points or twenty points."

He thought to himself:

"The mystical mountain spirit, indeed generous."

Contribution points from the mystical mountain can be exchanged for Tier Seven, Tier Eight rare treasures, of extremely high value!

An ordinary Tier Seven material costs only seven to eight hundred contribution points in the mystical mountain’s treasure vault.

Don’t underestimate these small amounts of five or ten points; they are enough to purchase a Tier Six High Grade Ancient Treasure or several High Tier Elixir Pills in the treasure vault.

For a cultivator at the Void Refining level, it’s an exceedingly rich reward, greatly boosting their combat strength.

As his thoughts flowed, Chen Sheng was struck with an idea and instructed Qi Mang:

"Qi Mang, try transferring a bit of your contribution points to me, to see if it’s feasible."

Upon hearing this, Qi Mang immediately nodded in agreement, pinching a Daoist seal with his fingers, attempting to transfer his contribution points to his master.

After a moment, however, he frowned and replied with slight confusion:

"Master, my contribution points seem to be fixed, and cannot be transferred."

Chen Sheng had anticipated this, showing no surprise, and continued to instruct:

"Since they cannot be transferred, see what you can purchase in the treasure vault, and look at the available categories."

Qi Mang nodded again, concentrating, and connecting to the mystical mountain’s treasure vault with the permissions he earned from the trial, carefully browsing.

Before long, he retracted his thoughts, looking somewhat distressed, and bowed as he reported:

"Master, the items I can exchange for are mostly cultivation techniques and secret techniques, including some Tier Seven and Tier Eight techniques and inheritances..."

"As for items, there are only a few Tier Six Elixirs, primal spiritual materials, and ancient treasures. Higher-tier items are out of reach."

Upon hearing this, Chen Sheng chuckled softly:

"As expected."

He had long suspected that the mystical mountain, with its profound foundation and strict rules, would not allow anyone to take advantage easily, and the current situation confirmed his suspicions.

Though Qi Mang and the others earned contribution points, they were limited by the mystical mountain’s rules and could not transfer them to others.

Even if used for personal exchanges, the types of available items were restricted.

These exchangable items were practically useless for someone like him, an Integration Dharma Master or even a Daoist Monarch.

They are meant to fit the cultivation needs of Void Refining cultivators.

Chen Sheng looked at the four and slowly explained, patiently:

"Alright, no need to worry. Once your cultivation progresses, your permissions will increase, and the range of exchangable items will naturally become more flexible."

"The mystical mountain set it up this way to protect you, to prevent those with malicious intentions from taking advantage of you, targeting your contribution points, and forcefully plundering your fortunes..."

He paused, then continued to add:

"The mystical mountain grants you these opportunities and rewards to select from among you the extraordinary talents, to hone your potential, and help you break through your realms."

"Rather than allowing Dharma Masters or Daoist Monarchs to exploit you and seize the mountain’s fortune."

The four, upon hearing this, all came to an understanding.

Chen Sheng, seeing this, continued to instruct:

"As for the items and treasures in the vault, there’s no need for you to exchange for them."

"Carefully select cultivation techniques and secret techniques, choose the ones that best match your own path, and cultivate with devotion."
