Humans are devouring and selling off the heavens.

Chapter 22 Potions Stand, Whoever Wants to Be It Can Be It
"The Amitabha Sutra of the Past? The one from the Yang God?" Klein's heart skipped a beat.

"That's right. The past is eternal and unchanging, the true nature remains unmoved, and the mind does not change. Just sit and watch the thousands of lifetimes pass in the blink of an eye. All the past is an illusion, and all inner demons and external forces are shattered."

"This is the true meaning of the Amitabha Sutra. Once you obtain this method, you can naturally shatter a part of the spiritual imprint and no longer be disturbed."

Xu Qing smiled.

"Moreover, spiritual visualization does not require the consumption of spiritual energy, and it can be cultivated in your world, Mr. Zhou."

Klein's heart pounded; he hadn't expected to resolve the issue of his extraordinary ability going out of control so quickly.

“But in the past, one could at least cultivate the Amitabha Sutra to the level of the Creator, right? Can I really exchange it?” Klein looked at Xu Qing and his Adam’s apple bobbed.

"What are you thinking, Mr. Zhou? How could I possibly let you exchange it?" Xu Qing said with a smile.

"Huh?" Even Klein couldn't help but ask in surprise upon hearing Xu Qing's words.

Seeing Klein's embarrassed expression, Xu Qing smiled and continued:
"Haha, just kidding. It's just a bonus, an extra little bit of scripture. I don't need to put it out for exchange."

Is it really okay to talk while breathing heavily...? Klein thought to himself, letting out a sigh of relief, but he couldn't help but be curious about what Xu Qing was going to give him.

Were the Amitabha Sutra always a complimentary item in the past...?

"What is it that the Pavilion Master wishes to trade?"

Xu Qing then slowly added, "Soul visualization doesn't require spiritual energy, but I can't guarantee it will work in your world."

"What I really want to trade with you is a portion of my spiritual cultivation and soul power."

Klein couldn't believe it when he heard this:

"Cultivation points? You can buy cultivation points?"

Xu Qing's lips curled up slightly, and he tapped the counter with his finger, smiling as he said:
"Of course, you can trade your magician's extraordinary traits, and I can naturally give you my own cultivation."

The flow of time was inconsistent, and Klein needed to digest the extraordinary characteristics, so he couldn't immediately digest all the resources given to him and then find more resources for him.

By the time he advances to Sequence 6, a year may have already passed for me.

If no customers come, is there any point in keeping the store open?
Since they're both going to be used as a stand for extraordinary abilities anyway, why not let Klein be used as a stand for Taoist arts? That's more like a wheelchair...

Is that even possible? ... Listening to Xu Qing introduce his abilities, Klein felt a pang of jealousy and couldn't help but sigh.

That's something else entirely!

People are so irritating.

After another sigh, Klein thought viciously to himself:
"If I ever get to travel to other worlds and meet some so-called author, the first thing I'll do is poison that idiot to death..."

Klein had also witnessed the efficacy of the Amitabha Sutra in the past, and he had even seen the spirits of the Yang Realm.

This deal not only resolves the potential danger of uncontrolled extraordinary characteristics, but also allows the user to accelerate their own advancement by leveraging the other party's cultivation level—a win-win situation.

So he took a deep breath and said:

"Master Xu, thank you very much."

Seeing Klein say thank you, Xu Qing simply sighed and patted his shoulder earnestly:

"Xiao Zhou, stop using your broken potion digester as a potion stand from now on."

"I didn't want to either..." Klein couldn't help but give a bitter smile upon hearing this.

The next moment, as Xu Qing had a thought, the Heavenly Decree in his mind trembled slightly.

Klein suddenly felt as if a vast, boundless ocean had appeared before him.

"Is this mental power?"

He couldn't believe how vast the ocean was; his soul felt like a leaf, about to be swallowed by the waves.

Is this Xu Qing's power?
Like a galaxy pouring down from the heavens, that sea of ​​spirit transformed into a torrent, carrying countless pieces of knowledge, and merged into Klein's mind.

In an instant, Klein lost consciousness.

Xu Qing looked at the unconscious Klein and couldn't help but think.

"Hiss, could it be that I gave away too many thoughts?"

……

"Huh? I...I'm...at home?"

As excruciating pain subsided, consciousness slowly returned. Klein opened his eyes and found himself back at the detective agency. Beside him lay piles of gold, nearly ten tons.

Xu Qing probably brought him back...

But Klein didn't seem to care about having so much gold.

Because he sensed something terrifying happening inside his body…

"I...lost control?"

Klein raised his arm and looked at the various fleshy growths and tentacles that had appeared on his hand. He felt as if his body had suddenly become someone else's.

Within his mind, a frenzied will surged, attempting to devour Klein's soul.

"Heh, Pavilion Master Xu was absolutely right, we've really become a potion stand." Klein couldn't help but chuckle bitterly.

Although the role-playing method can digest the potion, the mental imprint within it does not disappear. Instead, the role-player bypasses the barrier and merges with the extraordinary properties.

However, as Klein accepted Xu Qing's spiritual cultivation and strengthened his physical body, his true self became an "alien object."

Klein smiled bitterly, feeling the pain of his soul being devoured, and looking at his body which was about to turn into a pile of flesh, his soul suddenly formed into a giant Buddha.

A thought arises that is eternal in the past, and that the true nature remains unmoved.

Klein began to struggle with the mad will within this body for control of the body.

Even with the Amitabha Sutra in hand, Klein discovered that his mental thoughts were fundamentally inferior to that mental will.

The pain of a shattered soul kept recurring, and the whole person felt as if they were being torn apart by countless wild beasts.

A frenzied will relentlessly devoured Klein's spirit, yet Klein's spirit was constantly being rebuilt and devoured by it...

Finally, an hour later, the various buds and tentacles on Klein's body fell off and disappeared, and all the spiritual imprints in his body were finally shattered and devoured.

Opening his eyes, Clay looked at his body, now back to normal, and felt his mental strength, which was much stronger than before. A hint of surprise crept into his voice:
"Just like described in Yang Shen, devouring spiritual thoughts can also strengthen my spirit."

"It seems this potion can actually be used as a resource for my cultivation..."

But a hint of doubt appeared on Klein's face.

"However, I remember that the spiritual power that Pavilion Master Xu gave me was more than this..."

In my memory, that kind of spiritual power was as vast as the sea.

But the next moment, Klein felt a surge of spiritual energy enter his soul, increasing his power.

"Ok?"

With a thought, sensing the source of that spiritual power, he discovered a dark golden sphere in his own sea of ​​consciousness.

"Oh? No wonder I said my mental power wasn't that strong. So you were afraid my body couldn't handle it and I'd turn into a dark golden sphere?" Klein couldn't help but smile.

Luo Feng's mental power was also condensed in this form before it was fully awakened.

With the same form of spiritual power as Luo Feng, this spiritual power must be at least at the peak of the God of War level... Klein couldn't help but sigh.

"Sect Master Xu Qing is truly generous."

But Klein didn't know that this was just a thought Xu Qing casually tossed out; it was something he could recover from by breathing in some cosmic energy...

Klein had just breathed a sigh of relief, but the next moment, his expression changed again.

Because his soul was more powerful, he was able to sense some abnormalities.

Although the spiritual will within the extraordinary characteristic was shattered or even devoured by itself, there seemed to be a deeper, dormant will within it.

That seems to be the essence of extraordinary characteristics.

What it devours is the superficial spiritual imprint of Him, which will disappear with time, but the essence will never be erased, just like this extraordinary characteristic, possessing the principle of conservation of immortality.

It will awaken once it accumulates to a certain extent.

And one's own body is made up of this kind of thing...

"Extraordinary characteristics, what exactly are they...?"

Klein felt a chill run down his spine upon seeing this.

To that author whose very existence is uncertain, I'd literally drown you in a magic potion.
