This is a cultivation game, but the operation is bad

Chapter 237 Extreme Cultivation Pill, Xuanwu Jade, and the Overbearing Azure Blood Hundred Slaughter Sword! (Please continue reading!)
The Celebration Spiritual Root Gift Box contains a random top-grade spiritual root!
Jiang Liu had fantasized about developing a Yin spiritual root, a Yang spiritual root, a spatial spiritual root, a time spiritual root, or even a poison spiritual root. Even if he didn't use it, it could still increase his spiritual energy limit and spiritual energy recovery speed.

However, he overlooked one point.

The Celebration Spiritual Root Gift Box doesn't state that you can't get a spiritual root you already have.

and so.

Top-grade Water Spirit Root x1!

Upon seeing the unusually familiar icon in front of him, Jiang Liu was completely dumbfounded, his mind filled with question marks.

A top-grade water elemental root, are you serious?
I got this damn thing on the second day after the server opened, and I still have several hundred in my inventory!

I'm so pissed off! Is this a gift box that humans could design?
It's been half a year since the server opened, who needs a permanent pool spirit root like you!
It's true, just when he thought the planner had turned over a new leaf, the planner would unexpectedly give him a huge turd.

It's just a top-grade spiritual root; he doesn't care, he has plenty of those anyway.

However, when he thought about how other players spent several days farming 1000 Celebration Dragon Scales, happily exchanging them for Spirit Root Gift Boxes, only to be met with a bewildered and desperate look when they opened them and found they already had Spirit Roots, he felt a pang of resentment.

Oh no, I've incorporated it.

You're committing a crime, planner!
"I'm speechless. Do you only feel good when you're going against the players? Can't you just let the players have a happy anniversary celebration?"

Jiang Liu cursed under his breath with a dark expression, clicked on the top-grade water spirit root that had been obtained, and dragged it out of the inventory.

[Discard this item?]

【Yes】

Come on, if you're so capable, give me another Bloodbath Body or Mountain and River Body, and see if I throw it away.

[Open the Celebration Bloodline Gift Box?]

【Yes】

You have acquired a special physique—Wind Control Physique.

【Wind-Riding Style】

【】

[Category: Special Physique]

[Effect: Wind-type skill damage increased by 30%, movement speed increased by 30%, ignores wind-related slow effects]

"Phew, it's okay."

Upon seeing that it wasn't the Blood Battle Overlord Body or the Mountain and River Soil Body, Jiang Liu couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief.

Although his response was very assertive, he still wanted to get a new physique.

The Wind-Riding Body skill, while useless for increasing wind-based damage, does offer a 30% increase in movement speed and an effect that ignores wind-induced slowdowns, so it's not bad.

As long as there's an improvement, it's not a waste of his time farming 1000 Celebration Dragon Scales.

next.

[You have opened the Celebration Bloodline Gift Box and obtained the Demon Clan Bloodline—Poisonous Centipede Bloodline]

【Deeply Venomous Centipede Bloodline】

[Category: Demon Bloodline]

[Effect: Increases poison damage by 30%, increases poison resistance by 30%, ignores Xuan-rank/Fa-rank poison skills]

Jiang Liu: “.”

It's another prop that's neither useful nor worth throwing away.

Poison damage is useless against him, but the 30% increase in poison resistance is still decent. Now, the Poison King in Zone 3 will have an even harder time fighting him.

Gone.

None of the three limited-edition items satisfied him, leaving him extremely disappointed.

This is perhaps the difference between free and paid items.

Free items can be obtained through various means, so it's fine to give away some good items as well; it won't affect revenue.

But paid items won't work. What if I give you an awesome paid item and you stop using it?
The planner said that this would not work; he would rather be at odds with the players than at odds with revenue.

You should be grateful for the top-grade spiritual root, special physique, and demon bloodline I'm giving you. Do you still want to be picky?

Just tell me if you want it or not.

"Yes, every prop we accumulate now will be a bullet fired at the planner in the future!"

"I earned this through hard work, why shouldn't I accept it!"

Jiang Liu didn't look down on the Wind Control Body and the Poisonous Frog Bloodline. He snorted and clicked to use them, adding a little more to his base combat power.

I'll add it little by little, and one day I'll be stronger than Lao Tzu and the Jade Emperor!
The emperor's throne rotates; who knows, maybe it'll be my turn?

The little golden core had already begun to dream of becoming the ruler of the Heavenly Court.

Although dreams may seem unattainable, that's what gives us the motivation to work hard!
If I become the Jade Emperor, I'll have the entire Immortal Cultivation Era team reincarnate into the mortal realm, and then create an Immortal Cultivation Era 2.0 for them to play with. They can't return to the Immortal Realm until they complete the game.

Oh right, we also need to set them up as an ordinary family and the extremely unlucky one, hahaha!
"We've finished the celebration dungeon, and the half-year anniversary celebration is almost over. Now it's time to grind monsters and level up."

Jiang Liu, having exited his daydream and returned to reality, opened the half-year anniversary celebration interface again and looked through it from top to bottom once more.

Well, there's really nothing else to do.

To take advantage of the double experience period to grind monsters like crazy, the first thing to do is to prepare.

The process involves refining the Extreme Cultivation Pill, refining the Xuanwu Jade, and simultaneously forging the Azure Blood Hundred Slaughter Sword. Only in this way can one level up by grinding monsters at the fastest speed and with the greatest efficiency.

Taking it one step at a time, Jiang Liu first opened the alchemy interface and clicked on the right side to refine the Extreme Cultivation Pill.

[Consume 100 Spirit Stones, 100 Profound-Rank Demon Blood, and 10 Spirit-Rank Demon Blood (Dragon Blood) to refine the Ultimate Cultivation Pill?]

【Yes】

[Add additional Spirit-Rank Dragon Blood to enhance the effects of the Extreme Cultivation Pill. Up to 10 drops of Spirit-Rank Dragon Blood can be added.]

Yes, add 10 drops of Spirit-Rank Dragon Blood.

100 spirit stones, 100 drops of Xuan-rank demon blood, and 20 drops of Ling-rank dragon blood.

Extreme Cultivation Pill, let me see your limits!

[Refining failed, you have gained 100 alchemy experience points]

Jiang Liu: “.”

Gan!
[Consumable?] [Yes]

[Refining failed]

[Refining failed]

[Successfully refined! You have obtained one Extreme Cultivation Pill (Dragon Blood Enhanced Version)]

With such a low success rate, do they really think Spirit-rank dragon blood is free?
Oh, it seems it really is free. Never mind then.

【Ultimate Cultivation Pill (Dragon Blood Enhanced Version)】

[Grade: Lower Grade Spiritual Grade]

[Effect: Increases cultivation speed by 150% for 2 hours after consumption]

The cultivation speed increased by 50%, and the duration doubled.
Can you change this attribute? I don't need the duration. Can you just change it all to cultivation speed?
"Tsk tsk tsk, 3.5 times the cultivation speed, I'm afraid I'm about to take off."

Jiang Liuguang was already secretly looking forward to the upcoming leveling journey just by looking at the attributes of the Extreme Cultivation Pill.

Is it the late stage of Golden Core, or the Great Perfection of Golden Core?
Too fast, too fast! My Nascent Soul Immortal Form is still climbing the stairs!

Aren't those Fallen Demon players in Zone 3 very proud of their leveling speed?
Come on, let this newbie player show you what leveling up really means!

[Whether or not to refine the Ultimate Cultivation Pill]

Refining failed, refining failed, refining failed, refining failed, refining failed
The refining was successful.

One enhanced Extreme Cultivation Pill can last for 2 hours. There are still 28 days left in the half-anniversary celebration, and a total of 168 Extreme Cultivation Pills are needed.

Each Extreme Cultivation Pill requires 20 drops of Spirit-Rank Dragon Blood, so 168 pills would require 3360 drops of Spirit-Rank Dragon Blood.

Considering the nearly 22% success rate, damn it, my 3+ drops of spirit-level dragon blood might not be enough.
Planner, look at your success rate in alchemy!

Several more hours passed, and it took a full 15,000 drops of spirit-grade dragon blood to refine 168 Extreme Cultivation Pills.

If you need to use Extreme Cultivation Pills to level up after the celebration ends, then you'll have to grind through the event dungeons again.

Okay, I'll go do it on the last day.

After finishing refining the Extreme Cultivation Pill, he opened the weapon refining interface and glanced at his weapon refiner level.

Fortunately, he had already reached the Spirit Rank Refiner level before this, otherwise the Azure Blood Hundred Slaughter Sword would have been delayed for a while longer.

Superior Spirit Sword, here I come!

[Should we forge a high-grade spiritual weapon—the Azure Blood Hundred Slaughter Sword?]

【Yes! 】

Insufficient materials, crafting failed.

Jiang Liu: “.”

Oh, I forgot, the source material hasn't been changed yet.

He slapped his forehead, hurriedly rushed into the Great World, teleported to Crimson Flame Immortal City, exchanged for Azure Blood Hundred Slaughter Sword materials in the Immortal Alliance Shop, and then hurriedly exited the Great World.

restart!
[Should we forge the Azure Blood Hundred Slaughter Sword?]

【Yes】

[Add additional Spirit-Rank Dragon Bones to enhance the effects of the Azure Blood Hundred Slaughter Sword. Up to 10 Spirit-Rank Dragon Bones can be added.]

Yes, I want to add 1!

[Successfully crafted! You have obtained a superior-grade spiritual weapon—the Azure Blood Hundred Slaughter Sword (Dragon Bone Enhanced Version)]

Great!
Following the Five Elements One Line Warehouse Manager, Meteor Fall can also be a warehouse manager!

Big improvement!
Jiang Liu suppressed his excitement and did not check the attributes of the Azure Blood Hundred Slaughter Sword first. Instead, he started refining the Xuanwu Jade.

This is also a good magical artifact; it shouldn't be neglected.

[Should I refine a low-grade spiritual weapon—Black Tortoise Jade?]

【Yes】

[Consume Spirit-Rank Dragon Bones to enhance the effect of the Black Tortoise Jade? Up to 10 Spirit-Rank Dragon Bones can be added.]

【Yes】

I'm speechless. Using them in groups of ten, when will I ever be able to use all these tens of thousands of dragon bones?

[Successfully crafted! You have obtained a low-grade spiritual artifact—Black Tortoise Jade (Dragon Bone Enhanced Version)]

After both items were finished being refined, Jiang Liu couldn't wait to open his backpack and put his eyes on the newly appeared blood-red greatsword icon at the bottom of the backpack.

It's a greatsword!
A man's romance!
【Azure Blood Hundred Slaughter Sword (Dragon Bone Enhanced Edition)】

[Grade: High-grade spiritual weapon]

【Attribute 1: Increases sword skill damage by 120%】

【Attribute 2: Attacks inflict a bleeding effect, forcing enemy units to lose 12% of their maximum health. The effect weakens as the enemy unit's cultivation level increases, and it is only effective against mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators.】

[Attribute 3: Consumes 60% of maximum health to summon the remnant soul of a millennium-old blood dragon, dealing an irresistible soul-devouring blow to the target. Cooldown: 1 day]

【Attribute 4: When killing enemies of the same or higher level, permanently increase maximum health by 0.01%, up to a maximum of 150%】

Jiang Liu: “!!!!”

What did I see?
I witnessed the birth of a divine artifact!
Sword skills now deal 120% more damage!

Maximum health is decreasing!

Soul attack!

And the most awesome thing is the permanent increase in maximum health!
The first three attributes were already enough to shock him, but he never expected there would be even more experts behind them.

Permanent maximum health is increased.

He originally thought that this kind of entry would only appear on limited-time pool items, and only on limited-time pool items that had been fully drawn, like the Battle Saint Body.

This is an entry worth 2300 million spirit stones!
It's just being given away for free?

It's a freebie; although it only adds up to 150% of maximum health, it's still a genuine, permanent boost.

Jiang Liu stared blankly at the attributes of the Azure Blood Hundred Slaughter Sword, wondering in his heart if it was a high-grade spiritual weapon.
With the blessing of the Dao-grade material, the ten-thousand-year-old blood dragon bone, and the blessing of the spirit-grade dragon bone, the Azure Blood Hundred Slaughter Sword was pushed to a height that did not belong to it.

Then, it ended up in his hands.
