My Cultivation System

Even though he was almost sure that he picked the right item, deep down in his heart there was a little fear regarding it like,

'What if the item has many limitations in upgrading the skill'

'What if there are some failure cases '

'Even if the upgrade is successful then what are the side-effects,'

However, after seeing the complete data about the 'Skill upgrade crystal, Henrick felt relieved.

'Since all my skills and cultivation techniques are only level 1, all of them will be suitable to increase by a single level using the rank 2 skill crystal; however, I have already selected which skill I need to upgrade,'

Currently, all of his skills were just awakened and they were all still level 1. So, he didn't have any worries. Moreover, he had already selected which skill to level up.

'However, I can only use this crystal on skill and if I want to increase the level of the cultivation techniques, I have to cultivate them on my own,'

At the moment, Henrick had four various types of cultivation techniques. So, if he wanted to increase their levels, he had to continuously use them and gain enlightenment into them on his own.

'Anyway, let's see how much change can this skill upgrade crystal would bring to my skill,'

Without wasting any time, he silently ordered the system, 'System, upgrade my 'Camouflage skill'.'

The reason he came out of the inheritance building was to find a way to increase the level of this particular skill. So, when he got the chance to increase the level of a skill, without any hesitation he chose that skill to level up.

'Ding,

     Using the rank 2 skill upgrade crystal to increase a single level of a level 1 skill.

'Ding,

     Selected level 1 skill:- Camouflage

'Ding,

     Please bear with the pain while using the skill upgrade crystal.

Soon, three system notifications rang in his head as his system informed him of the details he chose.

'Aargh'

All of a sudden, the red-coloured crystal in his hands melted and entered into his body and at the same time, he started feeling pain all over his body.

But that pain was nothing compared to the pains he had endured before.

The pain didn't last for much longer before another system notification came.

'Ding,

     Master's 'Camoflage' skill levelled up to level 2. Please focus on the skill to know more details.

'Finally, the wait is over,'

Henrick heaved a sigh of relief as he focused on the skill name to know the upgrade information on it.

'Ding,

    Skill name:- Camouflage (Level 2) (Passive)

    Effect:- 1) Can hide the cultivation of the user from others and it will be shown what the user wants others to see.

          2) Can hide the bloodline of the user from others.

    Note:- Can only hide the cultivation or bloodline from the eyes of the cultivators of the master realm and below than that.

'Haha'

Seeing the halographic screen in front of him, Henrick started laughing as he finally felt the skill upgrade crystal was worth it.

'Even though it is still not enough to hide from the eyes of powerful cultivators, it is better than nothing,'

Henrick stopped laughing as he silently thought in his head.

'Anyway, let's get to the main thing I came to the inheritance building,'

He didn't ponder much on the skill anymore as he remembered the main thing he came here and worked hard for the last six days to reach level 1 challenger.

'Soul store, show me the price of a rank 3 skill upgrade crystal,'

Since he already used a rank 2 skill upgrade crystal, he knew he could not use another same rank crystal to upgrade a level 2 skill. So, he asked the soul store to show the prices of the rank 2 skill upgrade crystal.

<Challenger has no access for that item>

Soon, some words appeared on the light screen that made Henrick raise his brows.

'Didn't I just became a level 1 challenger? Damn it...don't tell me, you want me to reach level 2 challenger?'

Henrick cursed at the soul store as he felt it had been deceived.

<Challenger, you can check the price and even buy the rank 2 skill upgrade crystal; however, you can't see even the price of the rank 3 skill upgrade crystal>

The soul store gave him the same answer in a more detailed way.

"Okay fine...then why can I see even the price of a rank 3 weapon and other rank 3 items?"

Henrick nodded his head; however, he remembered seeing some rank 3 items in the soul store and immediately asked it.

<The access to the items for the challenger depends on the price of the items>

"So, up to what price I can see the items,"

Since the direct approach was not useful, he was going to use the indirect approach to find out the value of the rank 3 skill upgrade crystal.

<Currently, the challenger can see and purchase the items which cost up to 50k crude souls>

"Huh?".

Seeing the words on the light screen, Henrick received quite a shock.

"You are saying that the price of the rank 3 skill upgrade crystal is more than 50k crude souls?"

Henrick felt his head was spinning after seeing the words of explanation on the light screen.

"Okay then, show me the items that could hide my bloodline," 

Since he could upgrade his 'Camoflage' skill anymore, he asked the soul store about the other thing he wanted.

<The challenger needs level 2 access. Please work hard on the trials>

"..."

Henrick was speechless at the words on the light screen as he shook his head and didn't ask about it anymore.

'Trial master, I want to a level 1 trial,'

Staying at his current position, he asked the trial master about his new trial.

Since the situation didn't change much from when he was level 0 and now, she wanted to try increasing his challenger's level to get access.

'Ding,

    The challenger needs to be at the Energy condensation realm to get level 1 trials.

'Ding,

    However, until the challenger reaches the Energy condensation realm, he could attempt as many level 0 trials as possible.

However, the trial master didn't give any level 1 trials; instead asked him to reach the 'Energy condensation realm' first.

'No thanks,'

However, Henrick was in no mood to do another level 0 trial for now. So, he shook his head and rejected the trial master's offer.

'Anyway, I will not get many crude souls as I became a level 1 challenger now, the level 0 trials would give me any benefits,'

Henrick noticed one thing in the past few days and that was he could not rely on the level 0 trials to get crude souls.

So, he decided to take a break with these level 0 trials.

'Since I will be not coming here until I reach the 'Energy condensation realm', I will buy some useful items from the soul store,'

Soon, he started searching for some items that would be helpful to him in the near future.

<An item just got a 50 percent discount. Do you want to check it?>
