My SSS-Rank Skill and System is too OP in Modern Cultivation world-Chapter 63: A Treasure Hidden in the Dirt
---
Kent stretched his arms after the intense battle with 788, his back cracking audibly as he tilted his head from side to side. The eerie quiet of the ruins returned as the ashes of 788 drifted into the fog.
Whirl!
"Well, that was fun," Kent muttered, dusting off his jacket. "I wonder how much SP I made off that guy."
Ding!
SP Balance: 1,531,760 SP.
"Over a million SP now! Sweet!" he exclaimed, punching the air in celebration. "This system is practically printing money for me!"
As his excitement waned, Kent took a deep breath and scanned his surroundings. The rocky terrain stretched into the distance, broken only by patches of jagged cliffs and the occasional withered tree. The air buzzed faintly with spiritual energy, a clear sign that this place still held secrets.
"I’ve got time to kill and treasures to find," Kent said with a grin. "Let’s see what else this ruin is hiding."
Wandering aimlessly, Kent kicked at rocks and dirt, hoping to stumble upon something valuable. After a while, his eyes caught a faint glimmer peeking out from beneath a pile of rubble.
"Huh? What’s that?" he murmured, crouching down.
He brushed away the dirt, revealing a small shard of a broken spiritual tool. It looked like the blade of a sword, its surface cracked but faintly glowing with spiritual energy.
"Broken junk, huh?" Kent said, turning the shard over in his hand. "Not exactly what I was hoping for."
Ding!

Kent blinked. "Wait, what? I can fix this junk with my new skill?"

"Sweet! Finally, my Architect skill is useful other than creating stinky bombs!" Kent said, grinning. "Alright, let’s see what I can do."
As Kent inspected the shard, he noticed a faint trail of glimmering ore fragments leading further into the ruins. Curiosity piqued, and he followed the trail until he reached a small cave hidden behind a crumbling wall of stone.
"Bingo!" Kent whispered, peeking inside.
The cave was dimly lit, but the walls sparkled with veins of spiritual ore. Scattered across the ground were broken tools—swords with shattered blades, shields missing chunks, and fragments of various spiritual tools.
"This must’ve been some kind of workshop," Kent muttered, stepping inside. "And now it’s all mine!"
He rubbed his hands together, his mind racing with ideas. "If I fix these tools, I can sell them to those students. They’ll pay a fortune for spiritual gear in this place!"
Ding!

"Challenge accepted," Kent said, cracking his knuckles.

"Alright, system, let’s do this," he said, summoning his hellfire in his hands.
The black flames ignited in his palm, flickering ominously as he focused his energy.
"Architect Skill, activate!"
The hellfire spread over the broken pieces, wrapping around them like molten metal. Sparks flew as the shards fused together, their cracks disappearing.
WHOOSH!
The flames died down, revealing a fully restored spiritual sword. Its blade gleamed with a faint golden glow, and its hilt was polished to perfection.
Kent picked it up, giving it a few experimental swings. "Not bad! It feels brand new."
Ding!
Repaired: Spiritual Sword (Grade E)
SP Reward: +500
"Easy money," Kent said, grinning. "Let’s fix some more." I can earn a lot of money. 😁
Kent spent hours rummaging through the cave, gathering every broken tool he could find. His backpack quickly filled with fragments, forcing him to use his system storage for extra space.
Piece by piece, he repaired each tool, his hellfire fusing the materials with precision.
WHOOSH!
CLANG!
Another sword was restored.
CRACKLE!
SHING!
A broken shield became whole again.
Each successful repair brought a satisfying Ding! from the system, along with a steady stream of SP.
Ding! +1,000 SP.
Ding! +750 SP.
Ding! +500 SP.
By the time he was done, Kent had restored over a dozen spiritual tools, ranging from swords to daggers to small spiritual tools.
"Man, I’m on fire today!" Kent said, wiping sweat from his forehead. "Literally."
As Kent admired his handiwork, a mischievous grin spread across his face. "These students are desperate for gear. If I sell this stuff, I’ll be swimming in money!"
He held up a shield, inspecting its craftsmanship. "And if anyone asks where I got these, I’ll just say I found them. No one needs to know about my Architect skills."
Kent stuffed the repaired tools into his bag and system storage, already imagining the piles of cash he’d make.
But just as he was about to leave the cave, the system chimed again.
Ding!
System Notification:
Detected rare spiritual ore deeper within the cave. Would you like to investigate?
Kent’s eyes lit up. "Rare ore? Don’t mind if I do!"
Venturing deeper into the cave, Kent followed the glowing veins of spiritual ore. The air grew thicker with energy, and the faint hum of power echoed through the chamber.
Finally, he reached a hidden alcove where a cluster of rare, glowing blue ore protruded from the wall.
"This… this is the good stuff," Kent whispered, his eyes sparkling. "With this, I can make some top-tier gear!"
He summoned his hellfire, carefully chiselling the ore from the wall without damaging it.
CRACKLE!
CLINK!
Piece by piece, he collected the rare ore and stored it safely.
Ding!
Collected: Azure Vein Ore (Rare).
As he stood back, admiring the now-empty alcove, Kent felt a surge of pride. "I’m really killing it out here."
With his loot secured, Kent left the cave and stepped back into the foggy ruins. The eerie silence returned, but he couldn’t stop grinning.
"Let’s see… I’ve got rare ore, repaired tools, and a ton of SP. Not a bad day at all!" he said, patting his bag.
He glanced at the repaired sword hanging from his belt. "Now I just need to find some customers… or maybe some more evolved animals to farm SP. Either way, I’m ready."
Kent wandered deeper into the ruins, his mind filled with visions of wealth and victory. Little did he know, the challenges ahead would test his newfound skills like never before.
I need to create a ruin shop. I am already a pro salesman. I have been selling eggs for over three years now. 😁
