Chapter 231: The Use of Complete Spiritification
Seeing this information, Lu Yuan gasped in shock, his mind suddenly stirred.
"The lowest demarcation line is overcoming a 'Ghost'!"
This was clearly on the level of the "Great Lai Empire" or "Gear Civilization."
Then thinking of the human's 18th civilization, he felt a sense of annoyance...
"Maybe we'll all die of thirst next year," Lu Yuan scratched his head, "God, at least let it rain." Stay tuned with My Virtual Library Empire
Of course, the ability he had merged, "Eternal Spark," was actually quite good too, mergable abilities were actually few—in fact, only top civilizations could research such things.
"Eternal Spark" might have been a by-product of researching "Powerful Wind."
[So, what exactly are the splitting products of Powerful Wind?]
[After careful discussion, we unanimously believe that Complete Spiritification, a relatively rare ability, may be one of the splitting products.]
[Why do we say that? Because Complete Spiritification is simply an ability that breaks through the limits of Divine Attributes and soul restrictions without any combat power, only auxiliary effects.]
[It's less likely to occur naturally.]
[We investigated more than six thousand anomalies and never found similar mechanisms. Since anomalies are the embodiment of Ideal Rules, their Divine Attributes being lower doesn't hinder the use of various abilities.]
[Only intelligent life requires higher Divine Attributes.]
[Therefore, it may be the splitting product of some powerful ability.]
Lu Yuan hissed, inhaling sharply, and muttered with furrowed brows: "Complete Spiritification..."
This ability was the reward for reaching the Milestone "Ability Fusion," and "God" clearly had its own purpose; it wouldn't just reward something at random.
"The purpose of God..."
"A single Complete Spiritification is obviously not enough to merge Powerful Wind..."
"Maybe, ask the mirror 'Demon'?"
Once this thought appeared, it was hard to shake.
The temptation of a superpower was a bit too much for the Greedy Demon God.
The mirror "Demon" surely knew some information.
But talking to the mirror "Demon" clearly posed a potential threat to the Rize Civilization.
Lu Yuan hesitated for a while, deeply feeling that his high morals made many things impossible to do.
If it were a different protagonist, let the floodgates open!
"I'll endure it for now; even if I merge Powerful Wind, I can't bear the world's targeting."
"I will wait until I return to the Rize Civilization and move out the 'Ghost' and 'Demon' from the spaceship. Then I can slowly plan."
As for now, the issue of a soul full to the brim indeed needed to be addressed.
"If it really doesn't work, then I'll temporarily seal a Divine Skill and liberate the human body first."
Thinking it over, his most useless ability was actually "Explorer's Eye."
This ability was quite useful when digging for treasures and discovering ruins.
But now he spent his days in the office, sending others to excavate heritage, making it less significant.
Of course, Lu Yuan wouldn't just discard this ability.
"Explorer's Eye" was a rather rare Divine Skill that the civilizations of human, Rize, Meida, and Green Grass didn't have records of.
Having such a rare ability when the soul is solidified could further enhance the ultimate growth potential.
Regarding the management of Divine Skills, Lu Yuan would not unreasonably deprive the possessors within this civilization, only waiting for the day of their natural death—as long as they didn't commit serious crimes, he wouldn't deprive them.
It was a matter of principle.
But if it were about him donating, he'd also wait until the moment of his natural death—Lu Yuan never practiced double standards; he wouldn't take from others, nor would he give his own away to someone else.
"So, I'll first strip this ability onto the Tree of Life..."
If it were the former Green Grass Civilization, the stripping of Divine Skills would have been quite simple.
Back then, the Opium poppy tree stripped everyone's Divine Skill during the "Ascension Ceremony."
But for the 18th human civilization, there was little confidence in that regard.
The few Sealing Ability Users couldn't be expected to reach the level of the Green Grass Civilization in a year or two.
It's so troublesome when the tech is weak.
Moreover, Lu Yuan didn't want others to know about it.
He could only seek the omnipotent Conch Girl.
"You're finally coming to me now?"
"Actually, I've been thinking about it for you for a long time."
For serious matters like this, the Conch was still very reliable.
She pondered for a long time before sitting up straight, saying very seriously, "Explorer's Eye is an ability related to the eyes..."
"With the Opium poppy's hypnosis plus the Sealing Ability, the difficulty of stripping should not be very high."
"But it's also my first time attempting this... Sealing?"
A mischievous smile appeared on her pretty face: "Okay, I am the omnipotent Mind Follower, and I can definitely do whatever I set my mind to!"
Lu Yuan didn't quite understand, what does that smile mean?
"Come, lie down inside the bud, lower your guard, and do not resist."
The two of them crawled into a bud together.
Lu Yuan lay on the soft floor, and the young girl knelt beside his head, summoning the emerald vines of the Yingyu tree.
"What should I do?"
"Don't move, just sleep peacefully."
Lu Yuan enjoyed a... very perfect massage service? This was indeed a massage service, right?
"Holy King" gently stroked Lu Yuan's hair as if petting a cat.
The girl seemed a bit giddy, holding back her laughter all the while.
Today she wore a beige shirt with her hair nicely spread out, and around her fair neck hung a fresh grass necklace.
Seeing that odd smile, Lu Yuan suddenly realized that the times he had bullied her were about to come back to bite him.
"Today is the day to settle the accounts!" the girl said hypnotically, with a fierce tone.
Actually, Lu Yuan really wanted to shamelessly ask for "kneeling pillow" service, but it was obviously going to be refused. Moreover, the current position was quite elegant - the bulging thing was nearly poking his nose, and he always felt like he had been granted some kind of benefit.
As his mind wandered, he yawned inexplicably and fell asleep - only to regret later that he should have held out a bit longer.
...
By the time Lu Yuan woke up, the "Explorer's Eye" had disappeared from the depths of his soul, never to be used again.
He felt a bit tired.
And there was a sense of loss.
"Eating some Soul Baby Fruit should replenish it."
Outside the window stood his Tree of Life, its branches extending inside, and the bizarre Cannibal Flower was basking in the sun, dozing off.
Looking at it, there was now an eye the size of a fist on its forehead.
Lu Yuan transferred his soul into the Tree of Life, and the "Explorer's Eye" ability reappeared.
In effect, the "Explorer's Eye" had changed its carrier, but it wasn't a big problem.
"Let's just leave it like this for now."
Conch Girl was overjoyed to see him wake up, as if she had found money on the ground, in a particularly beautiful mood.
Especially after seeing the words "big fool" on Lu Yuan's face, her mood became even more resplendent.
She tried to look serious and said, "Your Tree of Life is almost saturated as well; you should be more selective about the abilities you incorporate in the future."
"If you want to acquire Powerful Wind, stop stuffing your body with just anything."
Lu Yuan did some calculations.
His original 10 abilities, together with the Tree of Life's innate "Fertilization," "Grafting," "Spiritual Spike," plus a few abilities of the Yingyu tree, meant that the Tree of Life was indeed almost full.
"Cough cough, that's not important. What's important is, what did you tamper with?"
"I always feel like you're mocking me."
"Humph, you guess!" Conch Girl hopped over, provocatively saying, "You now look like a powerless little insect caught in my grasp, and from now on, you can never bully me again!"
Lu Yuan immediately reached out his hand to grab her ear: "Did you put a soul curse on me?!"
The two of them played hide-and-seek in the office, with the girl giggling non-stop, as if she had snagged a great deal, her eyes continuously darting towards his face.
Lu Yuan, no longer in a state of Soul Full, quickly adapted to the human body.
To be honest, teasing a beautiful girl with a human body, the dopamine released was countless times higher than with a tree body – it was much more exhilarating like this.
Just then, "thump thump thump," there was a knock on the office door.
"Don't, don't open the door yet!"
The girl suddenly panicked, knowing how important Lu Yuan's face was.
She hurried over and took a small tissue to wipe his face, laughing all the while as she did so.
Only then did Lu Yuan realize that his face had been labeled with the words "big fool."
"I thought you had done something serious, but it was just this little prank."
He gently caught the girl's ear and said earnestly, "Be bolder in the future. This little reward isn't enough to savor even for a minute."
"Pervert, stop touching my ear!" Conch Girl, not wanting to be seen in Lu Yuan's office, quietly climbed out the window and left a message, "What do you want for dinner? I'll get food for you."
"Add another chicken leg, I didn't get my fill yesterday!"
"Bro, the cafeteria has a rule: one person can only have one chicken leg."
...
After the girl had left, Lu Yuan leisurely opened the door and was surprised to find that Worm King · Lu Da, had returned!
It looked quite weary, its body much thinner.
The once-golden armor had caved in and lost its luster.
Surviving over a year in the barren desert was not something a normal person could endure.
"King!" Seeing him, Worm King · Lu Da almost teared up.
It bowed respectfully and took out a scroll from its backpack, "Mission accomplished, I have successfully mapped a part of the desert and found the border."
Lu Yuan took the map and his heart sank upon looking at it.
Lu Da had headed north, flying about 16,000 kilometers to reach the border of the great desert.
There, lakes and arid land finally appeared, along with sparse vegetation.
But 16,000 kilometers was a bit excessive…
