[Proficiency +100%]
The moment the voice echoed in his mind, Pei Jinye had already turned around to look at the person speaking.
“Is it you?”
The name at the tip of his tongue was abruptly swallowed back.
What was her name again?
Sun Ruofan smiled and came over, squatting down beside him to look at the calla lilies in front of them.
“They say that the leaves of the calla lily can drip water from top to bottom, just like lotus leaves. The water drips down obliquely from the leaves, scattering droplets of light.”
Pei Jinye silently shifted his gaze away, feeling somewhat unfamiliar with the girl’s name after not seeing her for several days.
Smart enough to divert the topic, he asked, “Are you here to practice as well?”
“I have a painting class nearby, and I came over to have a look right after it finished. I didn’t expect to see you here. It seems like you haven’t been to the school lately.”
“I took some time off.”
When Sun Ruofan heard Pei Jinye’s words, she was slightly taken aback, “Are you sick? Is it serious?”
Pei Jinye shook his head and said nonchalantly, “It’s just a minor ailment.”
He did not elaborate further.
Sun Ruofan hesitated for a moment, and they stood in silence.
Only then did Sun Ruofan venture to ask, “Are you planning not to go to school for a while?”
Pei Jinye nodded, “It depends. By the way, have you started exfoliating?”
“No….”
Pei Jinye felt a tinge of regret, “Then how is your Power Practice?”
He vaguely had some new ideas for moves, but now that Tang Huoyang was gone, he lacked a sparring bag.
“I’ve just started….” Sun Ruofan said weakly.
“I see.” Pei Jinye stood up, hiding his disappointment.
Sun Ruofan:
Did I say something wrong?
Why is there suddenly a feeling of guilt as if I’ve let him down….
As Pei Jinye got up, he saw Sun Ruofan also started to leave and said indifferently, “You’re heading back too?”
“Yes….” Sun Ruofan replied cautiously.
The light rail train back to the city was not very crowded.
Seeing that she remained silent, Pei Jinye simply closed his eyes to rest.
Sun Ruofan stole a glance at him.
She couldn’t help but wonder what exactly was the relationship between Pei Jinye, who was so devoted to his practice, and Senior Sister Li.
Ever since her childhood, she had heard many stories about Li Xiaoyin.
In some ways, she admired Li Xiaoyin.
In fact, it wasn’t just her; among the young generation in their small circle, there were quite a few admirers of Li Xiaoyin, and this admiration wasn’t necessarily romantic… it was an admiration for her courage to pursue her own ideals.
It was like a sparrow in a cage watching someone break free, soaring into the sky, transforming into an eagle… Of course, all this was what Sun Ruofan said outwardly.
On the side.
While Pei Jinye seemed to be resting with his eyes closed, he was actually studying his attribute panel.
He had gained another 100% proficiency.
He still didn’t know which technique to assign it to.
His attributes were as follows—
[Skill]: Basic Breathing Method (Great Success 3.7%); Quake (Beginner 15%); Dream Hypnosis (Beginner 14.5%); Solidifying Yuan Technique (Beginner 12.3%); Drawing Blood Art (Beginner 0.5%); Appraisal Technique (Beginner 11%); Unbreakable Vajra (Beginner 15.1%); Psychic·Locking Technique (Beginner 4.3%); Shadow Sword Technique (Beginner 0.1%); Firearms (Beginner 8%)
Pei Jinye focused on the skill proficiency, suddenly struck by a bold idea.
“If 50% could be added before, can 100% be split and added?”
He controlled his thoughts, his gaze fixed on “Unbreakable Vajra”.
The 100% proficiency rapidly decreased.
In its place, the proficiency of the skill “Unbreakable Vajra” quickly increased… Beginner 18.1%… Beginner 25.1%… Beginner 35.1%… Beginner 95.1%… Beginner 0.1%!
The proficiency stopped abruptly.
He had 15% of usable proficiency remaining.
Pei Jinye’s expression brightened.
“It works!”
Then he had another thought.
“Can I take back the proficiency that has already been added?”
Pei Jinye’s gaze was locked.
The proficiency of the skill “Unbreakable Vajra” in the skill bar suddenly refreshed after a pause.
[Beginner 90%]
In an instant, it slid down by 10% according to Pei Jinye’s thoughts!
“It really works!”
Pei Jinye was greatly surprised.
For him now, the Basic Breathing Method seemed somewhat superfluous.
Previously, he needed the breathing method to enter concentration and enhance the effect of the “Drawing Blood Art”.
But now, as his spiritual power kept increasing, entering concentration no longer required the guidance of the breathing method.
With a single thought.
[Skill]:Quake (Great Success 15%);Dream Hypnosis (Great Success 1%);Solidifying Yuan Technique (Great Success 1%);Blood Guiding Art (Beginner 1%);Shadow Sword Technique (Beginner 1%);Unbreakable Vajra (Beginner 0.1%);Psychic·Locking Technique (Beginner 28.9%); Appraisal Technique (Beginner 11%);Firearms (Beginner 8%);Basic Breathing Method (Beginner 1%);
“Quake”, “Dream Hypnosis”, and “Solidifying Yuan Technique” were directly raised to the Great Achievement Realm, and a multitude of cultivation information suddenly flooded Pei Jinye’s mind.
At the same time.
The offensive technique, “Shadow Sword Technique”, advanced to Beginner level.
“Unbreakable Vajra” advanced to Beginner level.
Pei Jinye deducted the proficiency of firearms, as with his current identity, the chances of handling guns were too slim… Moreover, when truly facing those Transcendents, firearms generally could only deal with the more vulnerable ones.
But it seemed that the Transcendents encountered by the Old Gods Association, like Jin Wuji and Lin Ye, could not be defeated with guns at all.
So it was better to put the proficiency somewhere useful.
Having done all this, Pei Jinye was very satisfied.
This was just his current status.
If he ever had to fight for his life in the future, he could fully utilize proficiency to max out Unbreakable Vajra, so everything was about flexible application.
Pei Jinye did a quick mental calculation.
As of now, the total proficiency he could mobilize was 978%!
He was also curious about how powerful a technique could become with an added 900%,
but currently in the car, he held back for the moment.
Suddenly.
Pei Jinye frowned.
On a whim, he had a bad feeling.
When he opened his eyes and looked,
an indifferent man coming into the carriage raised his hand, and the muzzle of the gun in his hand was aimed right at him.
“No!”
Pei Jinye was startled.
The target was not him.
It was
Sun Ruofan next to him!
However, in an instant, he had already unintentionally reached out and pulled her.
Unbreakable Vajra, Shadow Sword Technique, and Quake were activated at the same time.
The moment the gun fired, Sun Ruofan, like a frail leaf, was pushed by Pei Jinye and crashed down on the ground to one side.
The sudden assassination attempt nearly scared everyone to death, and the entire carriage erupted in screams as people scrambled to get away.
Pei Jinye felt a sharp jolt in his arm.
He had been shot.
After all, however fast he was, he was not faster than bullets.
But “Unbreakable Vajra” bore the brunt of the bullet, leaving him unharmed, only a red mark appeared where he was struck.
At the same time.
He flicked his finger.
The yellowish shell casing falling in mid-air struck the opponent’s gun.
It didn’t hit the person… Pei Jinye silently lamented the pity.
“You!” The other party was also startled by Pei Jinye’s decisiveness, his eyes widened, and before he could react, a shadow enveloped him.
An Iron Fist landed on the opponent’s body, instantly shattering his chest, as he screamed out in agony, vomited blood, and was smashed hard against the iron walls of the carriage, forming a huge dent.
“Help”
Sun Ruofan suddenly cried out for help from behind.
Two mysterious people, each wearing a clown mask, charged out of another carriage, their target clear as they headed straight for Sun Ruofan.
Pei Jinye frowned.
An umbrella someone had lost on the ground.
With a flick of his toe.
The moment he launched himself forward, the umbrella was already in his hand.
Swinging his arm, he used the umbrella as a sword.
