Spirit vein upgrade
[ it can be used on a level 2 spiritual heritage to start the process of upgrading to a level 3 spiritual heritage. The upgrading process took ten years. During this period, a nurturing array must be set up according to a specific method. It costs 1000 spirit stones per year. [ 800 karma is required to activate. During the process of upgrading, it will continue to cost 300 karma every year. ]
The option of [ spiritual heritage upgrade ] could solve a big problem.
!!
Ever since Lu chaoxi was enlightened, Lu Qing had been thinking about the problem of the spirit vein.
He didn’t cultivate a water element technique, so even if the spirit well vein was upgraded to the spirit Lake vein, he wouldn’t be able to use it.
Without the support of the spirit vein, Lu chaoxi had to ensure that he could cultivate normally. The expenditure of a thousand spirit stones a year was too expensive.
However, in order to raise the level of the spirit vein on Yuyan mountain, he would need to invest a total of 50000 spirit stones.
Money aside, the key was the 100-year cultivation period. It was a long cycle for cultivators. If chaoxi insisted on waiting, she would have to spend 100000 spirit stones to cultivate for the next 100 years.
It was an astronomical figure.
With the system in his possession, Lu Qing found it difficult to accept such a long wait and huge investment.
It was difficult to go from extravagant to frugal.
He had been wondering if he could get an option to increase his spiritual heritage from the system.
He didn’t expect that he would really get it today.
On closer look, the overall investment was not small. A thousand spirit stones a year, ten years would be ten thousand spirit stones. It required 800 karma to activate it. He would have to spend 3800 karma every year after that with 300 karma.
But the effect was still very outstanding.
Although the cost was high, it was a good deal to reduce the cultivation time from 100 years to 10 years.
The only thing left to consider was whether the clan would be able to bear the cost of the spirit stones, as well as whether Lu Qing himself would be able to bear the cost of the karma.
If he exchanged for this exchange option now, Lu Qing would only have slightly more than 1000 karma left. He had to earn 300 karma within a year. Otherwise, by this time next year, after paying the karma needed to upgrade his spirit vein, he would have less than 1000 karma left. He would not be able to exchange it for the resurrection item.
This definitely wouldn’t do. If something big happened and he didn’t have money to buy work, he would die of blood loss.
However, there were many ways to earn karma.
The map showed that there were a few red dots around Yuyan mountain.
These were all Crusades. Even if they were relatively low-level, according to his previous experience, even 1-star Crusades would reward him with around 100 points. It would not be a problem for him to earn a few hundred karma.
However, this was not a sustainable development path.
In the past few years, the Lu family had already wiped out the red dot enemies several times, and there were not many left. He did a rough count, and there were only six left. If they were unlucky and all of them were low-level conquest events, the karma they earned would only last them for two years.
He had to think of other ways.
He opened his achievement interface and searched for a while. He found some achievements that should be easier to obtain later on.
For example, new foundation building cultivators would be worth 100 points; If mingchao was in the initial enlightenment stage, the new initial enlightenment cultivator would also be rewarded with 500 points.
Even if there were new Qi refining cultivators, each of them would bring about five karma.
In addition to these, the achievement of adding a three-star Spirit Meridian would also reward 600 karma. He should be able to get it when the spirit Lake Meridian was successfully built.
The negative karma had finally come down. Lu Qing would be able to obtain quite a lot of karma in the future.
It was definitely not as good as during the war, but at least it could be maintained.
He definitely had to exchange for the [ spirit vein upgrade ] option. However, to be on the safe side, Lu Qing decided to take his time.
“When chaoxi and the others return, we’ll organize a wave of operations to clean up the attack.”
As Lu Qing thought about this, he got up and flew to the location of the red dots on the map.
If he wanted to sweep, he had to first investigate. If he was lucky, he could earn 400 to 500 karma from each of the six Crusades, just like how he would earn from the water Ghost Lake. What was there to worry about then?
After his clan’s level had been upgraded to three-star, his flying speed had increased by three times. The time he could go out had also increased from one day to two.
This way, the range of his movement became six times the original.
Although the cost of karma to make up for the time spent outside had also increased to five, and the doubling mechanism remained the same, overall, the restrictions had been loosened a lot.
Lu Qing only had to fill in the gaps once. He went out for four days and found out about three Crusades.
He was not that lucky.
Out of the three known Crusades, only one was a two-star One. It was a tree demon that had become a spirit, and it had probably reached the level of level two mid-grade. Under its protection, there were a group of flower demons and small tree demons. The reward for destroying it was about 300 points, in addition to a level two mid-grade wood element magical equipment.
Lu Qing was no longer interested in the magic equipment. He could arm xueting later. 300 karma was not bad.
As for the other two one-star monsters, they were easy to deal with. The total reward was less than 200 points.
Lu Qing set off immediately after he returned to the clan. He spent five karma and went out for four days. He went in another direction and scouted out the remaining three locations.
Two two-star and one-star.
If he bought all six, he could earn about 1200 points.
No matter what, it could be considered as solving the urgent situation.
When she returned, Lu chaoxi had already reached home.
The Lu family was now decorated with lanterns and streamers, preparing for a celebration.
The funeral of the two Lu clan cultivators who died on the battlefield had been held more than half a year ago.
Today’s celebration was to celebrate the Lu clan’s great gains from the war. It was also to celebrate Lu chaoxi’s success as the clan leader.
However, this was only a small-scale celebration. After that, the clan would take out some spiritual stones to buy some demonic beast flesh and rare fruits. They would hold a relatively grand banquet and invite the nearby clans with good relationships and itinerant cultivators with good status. The celebration would be more formal and lively.
On one hand, it was a celebration to boost the morale of the clan. On the other hand, this kind of celebration was also an official announcement to the surrounding forces: Even if patriarch Lu Qing went into seclusion for many years and did not appear again, the Lu clan still had initial enlightenment cultivators.
Once upon a time, the Lu clan was the number one clan in anling and had a brief period of glory. During that period of time, most of the forces in Pingyao County, as well as the neighboring Sishui County and Luyi County, were the Lu clan’s allies.
With the decline of the Lu family, it would be difficult to maintain these allies. Most of them did not have a bad relationship, but they would not continue to follow the Lu corporation’s lead.
But now that the morning sun had risen, these relationships should be restored.
Even the families that had been getting closer to the Zhao family in the past few years had sent them invitations.
Those who were willing to come to the celebration would be friends of the Lu family in the future, and they had to do what friends should do. If you’re not willing to come, then I’m sorry.
