Chapter 107 - 107: Dao Fruit Evolution, Eternal Prodigy, People Want to See You Fall (2)
Among them, the Innate Swordsman definitely could not be consumed. It had a huge enhancement on sword techniques. An Le’s mastery of the righteous sword qi was greatly related to the subtle influence of the Innate Swordsman and the enhancement of the [Fearless Heart].
To An Le, the priority of these two was definitely higher than [Trance], [Collapsing Sword Force], and [Demon Tempering Treasure Jade].
Needless to say, [Heroic Qi Attraction] nurtured his own heroic qi. Coupled with the Fearless Heart, he dared to kill the Heavenly Immortal with his sword.
Heroic qi was an indispensable quality for a swordsman.
As a Dao Fruit that could be upgraded with Age Qi, the Collapsing Sword Force had high potential. An Le was unwilling to give it up.
Therefore, the only things that could be consumed were [Trance] and [Demon Tempering Treasure Jade].
On Green Mountain, An Le stood quietly under the old locust tree and fell into deep thought.
A Dao Fruit like [Trance] would let him enter a trance state when fighting and forget fear. Only battle intent could increase one’s strength. It actually overlapped with the effect of [Fearless Heart].
“Therefore, I’ll give up [Trance] and [Demon Tempering Treasure Jade]… to upgrade my other Dao Fruit.”
After thinking for a long time, An Le finally made a decision.
Molten Gold Age Qi was rare, and An Le could really feel it now. Perhaps for a few consecutive days, even if he plucked 20 wisps of years a day, he would not obtain a wisp of Molten Gold Age Qi.
However, since he had already made up his mind, he would not change it.
With a thought, a light screen appeared. A faint light flickered with an imperceptible color.
He let out a long breath and used [Trance] and [Demon Tempering Treasure Jade] on [Thousand-year Genius] with nervousness.
Buzz…
With a faint sound, it was as if an incense pillar had been ignited. Golden smoke curled up, and the Demon Tempering Treasure Jade at his waist turned into golden smoke and dissipated.
The two Age Dao Fruits turned into golden-colored Age Qi again.
In an instant, An Le felt a clear qi spread out from his feet. It surged into the Sword Furnace between his brows through his skin, meridians, Spirit Bone, and Inner Core before gushing out from the top of his head.
It was as it An Le was connected to heaven and earth.
[Dao begets one, one begets two. Time flows but the ages remain eternal. The
Dao Fruit has metamorphosed.]
[Thousand-year Genius has evolved into Eternal Prodigy]
Eternal Prodigy!
An Le narrowed his eyes and his heart trembled slightly, but he quickly calmed down. He knew that the Dao Fruit could not be evaluated through just the name.
For example, before the original Thousand-year Genius was augmented with Age Qi, the help and benefits it provided were limited. However, the more Age Qi it was augmented with, the more obvious the increase in talent was.
After completely augmenting the Age Qi, he would be a true Thousand-year Genius.
As the name suggested, [Eternal Prodigy] had also taken this path. The effect of the Dao Fruit that had just evolved might only be slightly better than the max-level [Thousand-year Genius]. If he wanted to achieve the true level of [Eternal Prodigy], he might have to add Age Qi.
[Age Dao Fruit: Eternal Prodigy (Molten Gold Age Qi 0/10 wisps, 0/1,000 wisps)…]
An Le’s gaze landed on the light screen. In the Age Dao Fruit column, he immediately felt speechless when he saw the evolution conditions.
Putting aside a thousand wisps of Age Qi, just the conditions of ten wisps of Molten Gold Age Qi were enough to give An Le a headache.
The Age Qi was still alright. If he found enough cultivators, he could slowly harvest enough. However, the Molten Gold Age Qi was something that could only be chanced upon by luck. Even if he really obtained one and transformed it into a Dao Fruit, it would always be difficult for him to part with it.
Closing his eyes slightly, An Le calmed his mind and soothed his emotions. He knew that he was a little agitated.
The cultivation path was long and long. As long as he continued, he would be able to gather everything he wanted sooner or later.
Therefore, the anxiety and urgency now were actually quite unreasonable.
His mind was incomparably clear. With a thought, the Sword Waterfall
Diagram appeared. With the huge increase in talent and comprehension of the Eternal Prodigy, An Le felt that many of his previous obstructions had been instantly broken through and he had different comprehensions.
His memories became outstanding, and he seemed to be able to dig out the subtle things in his mind.
An Le opened his eyes and raised his hand to wave at Ink Pool Sword. He pulled it out without hesitation.
He raised his hand and placed his sword finger on the Ink Pool Sword. The Sword Qi Draws Near technique contained in the Little Sacred Token in the Ink Pool was immediately analyzed and comprehended by An Le again.
In the entire small courtyard, sword qi clanged.
Crash! Crash!
The clanging sound of the chains resounded in the dark prison of Lin’an Prefecture. The stench filled the air and was nauseating.
After Liu Yue was ruthlessly thrown into prison by the officials two days ago, he was in a daze and was extremely confused.
When the official who delivered the food placed the simple food down, Liu Yue suddenly came to a realization. The strength that came from nowhere rushed to the prison frame. He pressed his head against the gap and shouted, “I was wronged. I was wronged!”
“I didn’t cheat. I’m a descendant of the Liu family in Huating. I’ve studied hard since I was young and read a lot of books. How could I cheat in the Spring
Quarter Examination?!”
Liu Yue roared, and the veins on his neck popped out.
From the joy of ascending the pavilion to drinking wine a few days ago to the great sorrow of sitting in a cage today, the ups and downs of his life were like a heavy hammer that smashed him until he almost coughed up blood. However, he couldn’t sit still and wait for death. If this crime was really confirmed, then even if he wasn’t beheaded, he would lose hope in the future!
At this moment, Liu Yue’s heart palpitated with fear.
The official in uniform glanced at him coldly with disdain in his eyes. That was disdain for cheating Confucian scholars. Cheaters naturally had the lowest morals and were despised..
