I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early

Chapter 146 Extraordinary Spark, Evolution, Eternal Spark_2



"Nice one, keep it coming!"

He grabbed a stick and stirred the ground haphazardly again.

"Don't stir up that skull! You won't even know how to spell 'dead' by then."

"Don't worry about it... Oh crap, I really did stir it up! A ghost came out!" Lu Yuan screamed.

The turtle's eyes nearly fell out, it was actually afraid of the revived ghost.

"Just kidding, hahaha."

The mirror spoke again, because Lu Yuan had the option to run, while it had no choice.

This transaction could only allow it to gain a slight advantage.

[In the world, 'Divine Skill' is held in the highest regard, and the 'God' attribute is esteemed.]

[Compared to the limited number of Divine Skills, Qi Skills and Shape Skills are like gravel to gemstones.]

[Extraordinary Spark is merely a Qi Skill, a power split off from the Eternal Spark.]

[It is said that 'Eternal Spark,' when millions of civilizations emerge in an epoch, there are always several dozen or hundreds of 'Eternal Sparks.']

[There are also philanthropists in the world who study their own Eternal Spark, splitting it into a transmittable Extraordinary Spark to spread among all people.]

[Thus, this ability began to spread, becoming the most widespread skill in Pangu Continent.]

[If the Extraordinary Spark could be upgraded to an Eternal Spark, then the power and cultivation speed of that ability could increase by more than double.]

This mirror, possibly intentionally wanting to pique Lu Yuan's curiosity, told the story smoothly.

"Just a double increase?!" Greedy Demon God·Lu Yuan scoffed, "What's the difference between dying from one glance by a [ghost] and two glances? What a worthless ability, making me wait for so long."

The mirror held its breath, unable to discern if this greedy fellow was serious or joking...

But it had gained a basic understanding of Lu Yuan's greed: like a black hole, unfathomable.

How could he be so greedy?

Did he really think there was an ability capable of facing a [ghost] head-on?

Thus, the mirror lost interest in storytelling: [There are several ways to restore Extraordinary Fire back to Eternal Fire.]

[First, through a power called Eternal Body, nurturing and fusing it. But this nurturing requires an enormous amount of Extraordinary Resources, long-term tempering with Earth Vein Flames, and most importantly, the possession of an Eternal Body.]

"How many people actually have an Eternal Body? What kind of nonsense are you talking?" Lu Yuan harshly criticized.

Actually, he was delighted inside.

I really have this ability?!

God, you've been really good to me.

[You're wrong, there are clearly several more magnitudes of individuals with Eternal Body than those with Eternal Spark.]

[Without an Eternal Body, you need to cultivate Extraordinary Spark to the extreme before you can further temper it.]

The mirror seemed to know that this information was probably useless.

It continued: [The second method, become a Spirit Devourer. Spirit has diverse uses in this world, and leveraging the power of Spirit, it's easy to evolve Extraordinary Fire.]

[I have a ready method for Spirit Devouring here, even if you do not have the ability to perceive 'Spirit,' you can still use it.]

Lu Yuan's heart sank.

This old crafty fellow, definitely up to no good.

What does Spirit Devourer mean... you can guess just from the name.

Soul Baby Fruit Tree, needs Spirit to grow, how about Superpowers? Perhaps the same.

Like the ability to control.

Of course, Lu Yuan obviously didn't have the capability to hunt down a civilization, to plunder Spirit, even if he had to kill the residents of a city lined up for him, one second per person would still take hundreds of days.

But to launch a war over Spirit, that was evidently possible.

So he sneered, "Is that it? If I had enough Spirit, could I not evolve other Divine Skills? Or control Anomalies instead?"

"What would I need this rubbish ability for?"

The mirror was rather speechless; you call every ability "rubbish," like a hedgehog.

While Eternal Spark wasn't as esteemed as the noble Space Ability, it was still a balanced ability ranked above average among Divine Skills.

If Eternal Spark is rubbish, then those 'Dream Entry,' 'Locating People,' 'Telepathy'—also Divine Skills—would be the trash of trash.

The Mirror said, "Then I'll tell you the last valuable path. This path, only a powerful and affluent civilization can find."

"You gather the three flames, Sky Blue Fire, Eight Losses Fire, and Earth Vein Fire, and fuse them together."

"With that combined flame, you can directly refine the Eternal Spark."

"If your civilization cannot find these things, it simply means you are not powerful enough."

"This information is already quite valuable. If your civilization tried to figure this out on its own, it might not find a solution in thousands of years. This already demonstrates my sufficient apology."

Lu Yuan was silent for a moment. This last solution seemed to hold significant universal value.

Of course, one could easily guess using their toes that the quantities of those three flames were likely not large.

If there were enough of them, they would have already become rare materials due to extensive exploitation.

He didn't expect the past civilizations to have achieved sustainable development.

Lu Yuan and Old Cat looked at each other.

Because this demon could eavesdrop, they dared not discuss openly.

Only the turtle, who couldn't understand what they were saying, was quite anxious... Could you not ignore, the great Mr. Turtle?

You're making Mr. Turtle feel very insignificant.

The paralyzed Old Cat made several movements with great effort.

It seemed to indicate a fairly high reliability.

Its database remembered the names of one or two flames, just some fragments of memory; the specifics were forgotten.

Of course, even if this "demon" was spouting nonsense, the fusion, promotion, and evolution of abilities were a whole new line of thought.

In the past, not just Lu Yuan, human civilization combined with the Rize Civilization hardly ever considered that Divine Skills could be split, fused, and evolved.

After splitting, there could emerge universally teachable values.

And the abilities, once fused, would become even more powerful.

"In the rivers of history, indeed, many brilliant talents were born."

"Or perhaps, the current situation in Pangu Continent is the legacy left by the struggles of several past epochs."

He furrowed his brow again, thinking, "Which of my abilities can be combined and evolved?"

Ideal Rules, as the name implies, are really quite idealistic.

This is different from physical rules.

Physical rules are rigid—what can be done, can be done; what can't, can't. Gold is denser than iron; this is an objective fact, not altered by any factors.

But Ideal Rules are different, sometimes, things you feel might succeed have a high probability of success.

Ideal Rules can even undergo subtle changes because of various human factors.

"The Pioneer's Eye and the Explorer's Eye, both relate to eye abilities. Maybe they can be fused?"

"Different Space, Storage Space, perhaps they can also evolve?"

"And... um... Craftsmanship might be evolved... Humans have the 'Craftsmanship' Divine Skill. Let them think about it. If they figure it out, I'll simply copy them."

Lu Yuan scratched his head, feeling that he was getting a bit carried away.

Because the splitting, fusion, and evolution of abilities all require a catalyst.

Like the Extraordinary Spark, which relies on "Eternal Body" to nourish it into the Eternal Spark, needs Earth Fire.

That is, the flames within a volcano.

If it weren't for the "demon" voluntarily informing him, Lu Yuan would never think to search for a volcano and scorch himself with magma—only a lunatic would do that.

And certainly, there would be countless details involved.

Details are the devil!

Yet details decide everything!

"So in the end, this 'demon' wants me to feel a need for it."

"I shouldn't be too anxious, I can pick up some trash in Sky City. Maybe I'll discover information then? Why rely on this cunning thing?"

Even so, Lu Yuan still felt a bit itchy. This Mirror Demon was indeed a treasure... but this treasure was on top of a volcano's mouth; taking too much would directly cause a volcanic eruption, troublesome indeed!
