Demon Purification Pot

Owner: Han Fei

Level: Two (Beginner Fisher)

Spiritual Energy: 48 (48)

Spiritual Heritage: Level One, Incomplete (Upgradeable)

Main Art: Soul Fishing (Repairable)

Han Fei was quite surprised. Demon Purification Pot? What was the calabash on his wrist about?

On one side of the series of data, there was a glittering option that said “Arts.”

Han Fei clicked “Arts” curiously.

Existing Arts:

Soul Fishing (Incomplete)

Level one of Immobilization (Incomplete)

Note: This generic ancient art is now incomplete after the passage of time. Repairing it will cost 1,000 points of spiritual energy.

Han Fei’s eyes immediately glowed.

Am I favored by fate?

His joy did not last long.

When Han Fei noticed his 48 points of spiritual energy and realized the gap between it and one thousand, he was lost for words.

Then, seeing “Repairable” behind the name of the art, he thought he might as well try repairing it.

When he thought about that, his 48 points were immediately reduced to zero, and the hazy picture was gone.

Gululu…

“I’m so hungry!”

Han Fei felt that the world was spinning and he was about to fall over. His overflowing spiritual energy vanished all of a sudden.

Han Fei staggered to the table and ate the unfinished clams. He didn’t feel better until he gulped down all the clams and his spiritual energy turned to 12 points.

However, to his exasperation, the data regarding the clams left him wishing he were dead. They were merely at level one, barely enough to fill his stomach.

“Four points are too few. What does ‘absorbable’ mean here?”

When he thought about that, Han Fei realized that the clam before him lost something. He checked his own data, only to discover that his spiritual energy became 16 points.

The clam’s information had totally changed.

<Name> Unfresh Clam

<Level> One

<Quality> Bad

<Spiritual Energy> 0 points

<Effect> This food can keep you from starving. Nothing more.

“I can do this?”

Han Fei was surprised.

Do I only need to touch the clams and not eat them?

Instead of touching all the other clams immediately, Han Fei murmured, “The Demon Purification Pot can directly absorb spiritual energy? Does it mean that I’ll have infinite spiritual energy as long as there’s enough seafood? If I can absorb clams, can I absorb flowers, grass, or stone?”

Then, Han Fei focused on his Spiritual Heritage, which was Level One, Incomplete. Was it the reason why he hadn’t been able to improve?

Seeing that there were still some clams in the tank, Han Fei thought of repairing his Spiritual Heritage, only to discover that it would also cost 1,000 points of spiritual energy.

Han Fei was lost for words.

Where can I find 1,000 points of spiritual energy?

He focused his eyes on the clams again.

Several minutes later, he touched all the clams, and his spiritual energy reached 52 points.

Wait, the amount of spiritual energy can surpass the capacity of my body?

Han Fei was shocked. It meant that he would have inexhaustible spiritual energy as long as he stored enough, whereas other people had to rest and recover after their spiritual energy was used up.

However, Han Fei gave up the idea soon, because he did not have even close to enough seafood for absorption!

Cleaning up all the clam shells, Han Fei sat on bed again, ready for cultivation.

This time, Han Fei dare not repair any art. He merely glimpsed and noticed a progress bar that had moved forward a bit. It must’ve been because he consumed 48 points of spiritual energy just now. He read on and saw new information.

Existing Arts:

Superseding Art: Void Fishing

Progress: 48/1000

Han Fei clicked his tongue.

Fine, I’d
