Chapter 111: 111, [Black, all black]
Translator: 549690339
For the mentor, there was some comfort in having Lu Xun sit with his back to him.
In his two lives, few had ever sat with their back towards Lu Xun. Even before the transmigration, it was typically Lu Xun, with a resounding thud, compelling others to sit with their backs to him.
The mentor cast a glance at Lu Xun’s seated figure, and couldn’t help but furrow his brow again.
The attractiveness of a person is not solely determined by their face, but by their overall demeanor.
Just like many beauties, not only are their faces beautiful, but even their silhouettes strike an elegant pose.
Of course, those who are only good-looking from behind, but not from the front, are often termed “back figure killers”.
Lu Xun’s silhouette was similarly remarkable, or more precisely, exceptionally remarkable!
His back was straight, his shoulders broad, his neck slender, even his black hair seemed blacker and glossier than an average person’s.
The winter wind swept over him, billowing his wide black robe, emanating an indescribable make-up-less kind of charisma.
Just a silhouette alone was enough to attract everyone’s attention, and they couldn’t look away!
There was no choice, what they called “charisma 10” was where every detail was exquisite to its extreme…
The mentor felt like he had been violated again.
This disciple, he reckoned that wearing a mask wasn’t enough to make him look agreeable. It was best if he were covered completely!
It was a little tricky…
After Lu Xun sat down, he wondered why the mentor hadn’t checked his Qi Sea yet. He was about to turn around and ask when he heard the mentor say, “Do not turn back.”
Looking at a pose was better than looking at a face.
Lu Xun obeyed obediently, not thinking much further, and soon felt a warm current enveloping him.
The mentor reached out his right hand and then tightly closed his eyes.
Still the same phrase, out of sight, out of mind.
It’s said that the Qi Sea is the most mysterious area in a person’s body. Only when they just start cultivating, they have one chance to take a look inside.
After the day when Lu Xun levelled-up in front of all the Demon Sect disciples, Shen Yan and Mao Nanbei asked him about the scale of his Qi Sea.
At that time, Lu Xun only saw darkness all around, apart from black, he saw nothing.
All Cultivators only had this one chance to look inside their Qi Sea. After that, they could never look inside it again, that was the common knowledge in the Cultivation World.
And the mentor meant… to take a look at his Qi Sea!
He could actually observe someone else’s Qi Sea!?
This warm current slowly converged within Lu Xun’s body. As the time ticked away, after quite a while, the mentor finally put down his right hand and slowly opened his eyes.
His eyebrows slightly knitted, murmuring under his breath, “Strange, strange indeed.”
“Mentor…” Lu Xun turned his head trying to ask what was going on.
“Do not turn back,” the mentor spoke again.
Lu Xun had no choice but to turn his head back again.
“I’m asking you now, when you were advancing to the second level of the Qi Consumption Technique, did you see your Qi Sea?” The mentor asked.
Even Mao Nanbei plastered her cat ears up in curiosity at this point.
She asked Lu Xun the same question that day, but he stubbornly refused to answer.
Lu Xun sighed inwardly, embracing the embarrassment, and replied truthfully, “On that day, everything before my eyes was pitch-black. I didn’t see anything. ”
“How’s that possible!” Mao Nanbei, acting like a child, couldn’t help but exclaim.
“Little Junior Brother, without a Qi Sea, you can’t cultivate!” Mao Nanbei said,
“But you have already achieved Great Perfection in the Qi Consumption Technique.”
The mentor nodded his head in agreement saying, “Indeed, without the Qi Sea, one cannot cultivate, and the body cannot store any spiritual power.”
“Then my situation is…” Lu Xun wanted to turn around, but managed to stop himself.
“You have a Qi Sea,” the mentor gave a definite answer.
Upon hearing this, Lu Xun was slightly startled.
As if he thought of something, he posed a tentative question:
“So… my Qi Sea is black?”
“Yes, it is black,” the mentor gave another definite answer.
Thinking back to that day, when Lu Xun was asked by many about the size of his Qi Sea, he felt a bit awkward. To save face, he played mystery and didn’t mention a word about it.
Now that he thought about it, he regretted missing an opportunity to increase his Reputation Value.
That day, he joked to himself, “Who knows, my Qi Sea might be black?” Unexpectedly, he really guessed right!
The truth was, Lu Xun didn’t really care about the size of his Qi Sea.
The Qi Sea directly related to a person’s cultivation aptitude, but he relied on Experience Points to level up, so it was of no concern to him.
It was only after hearing the conversation between Mao Nanbei and the instructor that he realized that if the human body did not have a Qi Sea, it couldn’t store Spiritual Power.
That means not only did he have a Qi Sea, but it was also vast and boundless, creating an impression of a pitch-black abyss!
Just look at this man, even his Qi Sea was just as black as his heart!
After confirming this, even his Third Senior Brother and Second Senior Sister were surprised.
A black Qi Sea, unheard of!
Moreover, based on the Little Junior Brother’s description, wasn’t his Qi Sea endless?
The mentor’s fingertips kept lifting and then falling, tapping on his own knee, as if mulling over something.
After a while, he said, “Generally, most cultivators believe that practicing different Cultivation Techniques will give different results according to different physique of the cultivators.”
“For instance, if a person’s Five Elements is fire, then practicing the Fire Technique will produce double the results.”
“If the Five Elements is water, then a Water-based Cultivation Method is the most appropriate choice.”
“However, the world doesn’t know that this is also related to the Qi Sea.”
Lu Xun was taken aback on hearing these words. Was there such a theory?
The mentor turned his head away, not looking at Lu Xun’s back anymore, but staring at the magical fireflies existing all year round on the back mountain, saying, “The Qi Sea of cultivators actually has attributes too. It’s just that most people can’t see much when they look at their Qi Sea when their cultivation base reaches the second level.”
“Even a Great Cultivator can’t see others’ Qi Sea, thus making the problem hard to solve.”
“Actually, the attribute of the Qi Sea matters more than an individual’s physique. If your Qi Sea is fire and your physique is metal, I would pick a Fire Technique for you, not a Metal Technique.”
“What’s strange is that your Qi Sea is pitch black with no attributes at all, and your physique is well balanced among the Five Elements… how peculiar, indeed!”
On hearing this, Lu Xun understood more.
In essence, he was still just a gamer, just with the traits of an NPC.
Furthermore, when players learned Cultivation Techniques, they could learn any technique, as long as they had enough experience points!
Perhaps this was the reason why his Qi Sea and physique were so strange.
But in the eyes of others, it was not good news at all.
While it seemed fantastic, as if he could choose to learn any attribute Cultivation Technique and had the liberty to choose, in actuality being balanced in the Five Elements and having a Qi Sea without an attribute meant he had no strengths!
Simply put, all of his five attributes were 20%.
Even if others’ aptitude was poor, one attribute would always exceed 20%.
Those with lesser aptitude might have a single attribute reaching beyond twenty percent, while those with greater aptitude could have a single attribute reach beyond sixty percent or even higher!
This signified that Lu Xun would lag behind others in efficiency while practicing any Cultivation Technique! The only ones worse off than him were those who chose the wrong technique or had no choice at all.
For example, in some minor sects that only had a Fire Technique, some disciples had a physique of water, with fire representing only 10%. If they practiced the Fire Technique, their progress would be slow.
After hearing what the mentor had said, Mao Nanbei became worried for Lu
Xun.
The little girl was so direct with her feelings, never hiding her emotions.
She shifted her little bottom to Lu Xun’s side, encouraging him while asking the instructor:
“Sir, is there a solution to this?”
In her heart, no problem could stump the instructor.
“There might be a solution, it depends on the choice made,” the instructor said gravely.
