I Made The World Mutate

Upon returning to his place, Xiao Mu immediately started considering his next move.

No matter how you looked at it, enhancing his power was of paramount importance, the key lay in how to do it.

While he was improving his powers, the alienated people from the Different World were also strengthening their own.

Just referring to what happened today, dealing with merely a Starving Ghost nearly exhausted all the Xuanmen Zhenggang energy within him.

If there had been an additional evil absurdity, even if it was just like a Hanging Ghost, he would have been in danger.

Therefore, for Xiao Mu, enhancing his strength was urgent.

So how to improve it?

He thought for a moment, deciding first to enhance his Xuanmen Zhenggang.

The cultivation of Taoist Law was fundamental, for him, so long as the level of Xuanmen Zhenggang did not improve, having a load of attack techniques would probably not make much difference.

As for how to enhance it, Xiao Mu thought of the mutated fruit.

The two energy points he just received could be perfectly used, to create a mutant fruit that could increase his powers.

However, when it came to choosing the material for the mutant fruit, Xiao Mu started to ponder.

Which kind of fruit would be good for mutation?

When it came to choosing the fruit, Xiao Mu had his own thoughts.

In his view, different fruits would have different effects after modification.

Even with the same modification, creating a power-enhancing fruit, Xiao Mu felt that modifying a fruit with strong medicinal properties from birth would definitely yield better results than modifying something like an ordinary apple.

If he was going to modify anything, Xiao Mu was leaning more towards modifying rare medicinal materials like ginseng and polygonum.

Thinking of ginseng, Xiao Mu's eyes couldn't help but light up.

However, following a look at his bank card balance, Xiao Mu couldn't help but chuckle bitterly.

The fat chance of buying good ginseng with the little over ten thousand yuan in his bank card.

Even so, he still felt it necessary to give it a try, there was no harm in earning money later if he ran out. The world had already changed, as long as he had Taoist Law, he didn't believe he couldn't make money.

He managed to get out, clenched his teeth to endure the pain, and spent ten thousand yuan on a good slice of Mountain Ginseng.

Without delay, he immediately started to modify the Mountain Ginseng.

Xiao Mu decided to test the effect by placing his finger on the Mountain Ginseng.

As a result, two options popped up:

1. Tonic.

2. Enhancement.

Xiao Mu retracted his finger and started thinking. These two options, he didn't quite understand.

After some careful thinking, he felt that the so-called tonic, based on literal interpretation, might be some kind of supplemental medicine. The effect might be to enhance some functions of the human body, and these functions are ones that the human body inherently possesses.

As for enhancement, again, based on the literal interpretation, it could be to enhance certain abilities that didn't exist in the human body initially, such as increasing powers?

Thinking about it, Xiao Mu decided to first select enhancement to give it a try. Even if it failed, it didn't matter as he had two energy points.

Once again pressing his finger on the Mountain Ginseng, two options appeared.

But with that, Xiao Mu couldn't help but make a sound of surprise.

He discovered some characteristics of using the mutated technique once again.

After selecting enhancement from the options, new options appeared.

1.1 point.

2.2 points.

The amount of energy used during mutation could also be chosen, this news made Xiao Mu extremely joyous.

Needless to say, using two energy points for enhancement would definitely give better results than using one energy point, and the medicinal strength would be stronger.

However, despite this, Xiao Mu still chose to use one energy point for enhancement.

He didn't know the effect of enhancement; he didn't want to waste all of his energy points on it.

Using the enhancement effect, momentarily, a flash of light, and the ginseng was transformed.

Holding the mutated ginseng, Xiao Mu could clearly feel the difference. This ginseng gave off a peculiar aura.

This aura had a nourishing effect, just holding it, Xiao Mu could feel the Dao Method Spiritual Energy within him stirring, with a vague trend of growth.

"Haha!"

Xiao Mu laughed out loud. His guess was indeed right; the enhancement effect truly could improve the potency of the medicinal material.

Without any further delay, he cleaned the ginseng, cut it into small pieces, and put a piece in his mouth.

Boom!

A gentle power dissipated from the ginseng immediately, nourishing Xiao Mu's entire body.

Xiao Mu hurriedly sat down and activated Xuanmen Zhenggang to absorb the energy released from the ginseng piece.

A day later…

Xiao Mu opened his eyes; anyone could tell that the aura emanating from his body had noticeably intensified, the celestial and Taoist aura, the intense spirit surrounding him became stronger.

However, not much joy could be seen from Xiao Mu's face; instead, he frowned slightly.

After eating that ginseng piece, his cultivation of Xuanmen Zhenggang truly had made tremendous progress, at least an improvement of more than ten years' worth of effort.

However, just because of this, Xuanmen Zhenggang's cultivation had reached a bottleneck, feeling that he was about to break through the Refining Qi Realm and enter the next realm—Spiritual Qi Realm.

Strictly speaking, the Refining Qi Realm was basically just a stepping stone, cultivating Dao Method Spiritual Energy, modifying one's own temperament, while involving some simple applications, it possesses certain attack ability.

However, the Spiritual Qi Realm involves some complex applications, the most direct one being that once you reach this step, you can create Dao Talismans.

Yes, Dao Talisman.

For those practicing Taoism, making Dao Talismans was indeed an essential skill.

As for the usage of Dao Talisman, it was quite extensive, almost usable everywhere.

It includes attack, defense, exorcism, calming evil spirits, driving ghosts away, invoking deities, etc.

It was fair to say that if one didn't practice making Dao Talisman then one's practice of Taoist Cultivation Method would be a waste.

However, in order to create Dao Talisman, one must at least reach the Spiritual Qi Realm, and only then can the Dao Method Spiritual Energy truly possess spiritual energy.

Sadly, Xiao Mu was at the critical point of breaking through to the Spiritual Qi Realm, but he ran out of ginseng.

Should he use the remaining energy points to modify the ginseng to enhance his powers?

However, Xiao Mu immediately shook his head at this notion.

Because of the improvement in his powers, he had already planned on how to use the remaining energy point, and using it to enhance the ginseng's effect to increase power did not seem appropriate.

After thinking for a bit, he took out the newly obtained Energy Crystal, ready to use it.

Compared with the energy provided by the mutated ginseng, the energy in this Energy Crystal was hardly worth mentioning, but it was better than nothing.

Immediately, he placed it in his palm, activated Xuanmen Zhenggang and started absorbing the energy from the Energy Crystal.

Soon, the Energy Crystal was completely absorbed, and the Dao Method Spiritual Energy within Xiao Mu finally improved by leaps and bounds.

Boom!

The Dao Method Spiritual Energy within him seemed to burst, and a sense of spirituality was born.

The second realm of Xuanmen Zhenggang, the Spiritual Qi Realm, was achieved.
