Chapter 83: Cultivation Complete! Xiao Zhi Ren's Intimacy Reaches the Target!
Chapter 83: Cultivation Complete! Xiao Zhi Ren's Intimacy Reaches the Target!
"Remember this! Today's goal is sixty times, and it must be completed before midnight! We're only halfway there, so it's not time to rest yet!"
Su Ping's voice echoed in the underground training room of this side chamber.
Previously, this basement, which had no decorations to begin with, was clean and tidy. However, after Su Ping started the accelerated cultivation of Xiao Zhi Ren, the room, though not exactly on the verge of collapse, had taken on a post-war reconstruction style.
But Su Ping obviously didn't mind.
Compared to the cost of beast cultivation, the expense of this renovation was negligible.
And now, without a doubt, this was the most crucial moment!
"Wahoo! (Don't worry!)"
"Wahoo! (For the swordsman's honor!)"
"Wahoo... (I will...)"
"Wahoo! (I'll definitely do it!)"
Amidst a series of Xiao Zhi Ren's cries, a golden, dazzling light flashed in his hand, and a sword beam instantly unsheathed!
It was an incredibly dazzling sword beam.
It was hard to imagine that a so-called 'sword', made purely of cardboard and only about ten centimeters long, could emit such a massive sword beam.
The thick concrete wall in front of him now bore a deep sword mark.
Even though Su Ping had witnessed this sword beam almost every day over the past few days, he couldn't help but marvel each time it appeared.
This power was indeed a bit terrifying!
Is this the perfect level of the Golden Saber Technique?
Moreover, not only was it sharp, but the sword technique Xiao Zhi Ren had created with his sword draw was also incredibly fast.
Combined with the 'sword energy and beam' of the perfect-level Golden Saber Technique, it could inflict severe damage from a distance.
After all, the only slightly noteworthy advantage of Xiao Zhi Ren, a beast known as the shame of the undead type, was probably its speed, which was slightly faster than that of other beasts of the same rank.
"Wahoo!"
Xiao Zhi Ren panted heavily, and his 'poker face' finally returned to its 2D expression.
At this moment, changes also appeared due to the rapid and massive energy consumption:
(￣o￣;;)
Thick beads of sweat appeared on one side of Xiao Zhi Ren's face.
Although Su Ping found it hard to understand how a paper person, being an undead-type beast, could sweat when its physical energy was consumed, as it shouldn't exhibit biological reactions.
Su Ping silently criticized this internally but didn't say anything.
It was enough that the paper person had that strange '◇A' expression.
However, Su Ping also noticed that Xiao Zhi Ren had reached his limit.
Normally, an ordinary ninth-rank origami beast could use its racial skill 'Paper Body Fold' at most about twenty times.
The Xiao Zhi Ren in front of him had now used the Golden Saber Technique, a perfect-level technique, thirty times, which was already quite impressive.
Yes, over the past few days of training, with the continuous consumption of ordinary undead-type resources, Xiao Zhi Ren's level had improved by one rank compared to before.
He had reached the ordinary ninth rank.
Initially, when cultivating the accelerated casting, Su Ping had also considered letting Xiao Zhi Ren practice the 'Paper Body Fold' skill.
Paper Body Fold was the primary offensive skill of origami beasts, but in the entire beast world, it was challenging to find a skill that could compare to its weakness.
Perhaps only the worm-type beasts, like the Giant Worm, with almost no combat power, could be compared to it.
The effect of Paper Body Fold was quite interesting, as it allowed the beast to change the shape of its body at will and control it.
For example, if possible, Xiao Zhi Ren could unfold and envelop an enemy in a paper cage after approaching them.
Of course, a paper cage has no real restraining power, so there's no need to elaborate on that.
Additionally, it can wrap around the weak points of animal-type companion beasts, suffocating them to death or directly strangling them.
Similarly, its power is still limited.
In summary, the paper body folding of the Origami Beast is extremely flexible and seems to have great plasticity, but its power is incredibly weak due to the potential of the Origami Beast race.
However, in Su Ping's opinion, it's still better than practicing the Golden Spear Technique to its full level, right?
Nevertheless, the little paper person was adamant about perfecting his swordsmanship.
The little guy would rather change the final slash of the Golden Spear Technique into a thrust, rather than practice any other skills.
Su Ping didn't insist further.
Seeing the little paper person panting from exhaustion, Su Ping directly took out the Undead resource 'Soul-Suppressing Paper' that he had prepared earlier, along with the healing mana potion he had purchased in advance, and handed them both to the little paper person.
The little paper person took them:
"Waaah! (Teacher... I'll never forget your kindness!)"
In a flash, he expertly consumed the Soul-Suppressing Paper and the potion, and the little paper person, who had been weak, instantly regained his strength:
o(`ー)+╋══
"Waaah! (A swordsman... never gives up!)"
Whoosh!
The sword beam of the Golden Spear Technique, which had just been sheathed, was unleashed once again, and without any prompting from Su Ping, the practice of this technique began anew!
"Waaah! (A true swordsman... never gives up!)"
'Whoosh!'
"Waaah! (To become a master, you must learn to endure loneliness and solitude!)"
'Whoosh!'
"Waaah! (Because a master is forged through loneliness and solitude!)"
'Whoosh!'
The sword beams of the Golden Spear Technique swiftly slashed through the air.
This little guy seemed to be cheering himself on, and each time he drew his sword, despite the potion, his body swayed slightly with each use.
But the little paper person resolutely slashed out each sword strike.
This display of willpower and conviction made Su Ping suddenly feel that this little paper person, who was determined to become a master swordsman, was just a little bit dramatic, and that was okay.
It was under this almost self-squeezing pressure that the little paper person finally completed the sixty repetitions of the Golden Spear Technique at around eleven o'clock in the first half of the night!
Su Ping looked at the little paper person, who had collapsed from exhaustion on the ground:
Σ(●@@●)
The next moment, a strange fluctuation emanated from the little paper person.
The little paper person seemed a bit dazed.
However, Su Ping understood what was happening.
Sure enough, in the True Eye's feedback, the words 'Accelerated Casting' slowly appeared!
[Accelerated Casting (Beginner): Allows the caster to increase their casting speed, but at the cost of additional energy consumption.]
The little paper person suddenly opened his eyes wide in surprise, looking at his own body in astonishment.
"Waaah? (What is this?!)"
"This is the new ability I've been teaching you during this time. Feel it and get used to using it!"
"Waaah?"
The little paper person blinked, and his spirits seemed to be restored in an instant.
Finally, the change that Su Ping had been waiting for appeared!
On the Book of Ten Thousand Spirits, an unfamiliar bestiary slowly lit up!
Su Ping naturally understood that the little paper person's intimacy had finally reached the required level.
