The Sect Leader Has Taken in a New Female Disciple

Chapter 30: Chapter 30 Synthesizing New Talent Skills

"I guess it’s not easy for it to lay another egg like this. Otherwise, the farmer would have discovered its extraordinary nature long ago and wouldn’t have sold it to the stall owner, let alone let it fall into my hands."

"Perhaps it has something to do with what it eats. I need to do some thorough research and experiments!"

Zhou Qing muttered to himself. He simply sat cross-legged on the spot, holding the precious spirit egg in his palm, and began to absorb the spiritual power within.

Soon, he was overjoyed as the pure spiritual qi was directly absorbed into his body, making it much easier to operate the heart method "Taiqing Profound Qi Skills".

"If I could absorb and refine this every day, breaking through to the later stage of Foundation Establishment would be a piece of cake!" Zhou Qing exclaimed in joy.

At this moment, a frantic shout came from outside.

"Fourth Brother, are you okay?"

Just as Zhou Qing stood up, Yan Xiaohu kicked open the courtyard door and rushed in furiously.

"Third Brother, at least respect my privacy!" Zhou Qing said helplessly.

Seeing Zhou Qing was fine, Yan Xiaohu snorted disdainfully and said, "Unless you bring a female disciple home overnight, what privacy do you have? By the way, did you blow up that mountain?"

He pointed into the distance as he spoke.

Zhou Qing nodded and spread his hands, explaining, "I achieved a minor achievement in ’Silver Dragon Hand’ and couldn’t resist trying it out."

"Minor achievement already? That fast?" Yan Xiaohu was shocked.

He had witnessed the power firsthand when he came over. It was indeed extraordinary, worthy of being the famous divine technique of the Supreme Elder.

Zhou Qing just smiled.

"Cluck cluck cluck, cluck cluck cluck~"

Then, Yan Xiaohu squatted down to tease an old hen. Not only was its eyesight poor, but it also seemed to have hearing problems.

Clearly, he called from the left, but the hen turned its head to the right, searching in confusion before pecking at the ground.

"A silly chicken!" Yan Xiaohu was speechless.

Zhou Qing just smiled without saying anything.

"Let’s go, I heard the Golden Thunder Sect is facing off against the Phecda Sect today. Those who excel at divination, I wonder how much combat prowess they have. I’m quite curious!" Yan Xiaohu said as he stood up.

Of course, Zhou Qing had to go. Lately, he’s been relying on being an onlooker to accumulate ignore points.

"Hold on a second!" Zhou Qing went inside to change clothes and came out with a rope to tie the old hen.

Seeing Zhou Qing about to stroll the chicken, Yan Xiaohu couldn’t resist, "This scrawny hen, what’s the point of strolling it? Just tie it at home."

Zhou Qing didn’t dare. What if it ran away?

Or what if someone stole it to eat?

After all, it looked quite plump, though its feathers were deceptive.

Not just the feathers, the whole hen was deceptive.

He had to thoroughly investigate what breed this thing actually was.

"Third Brother, I’m warning you, don’t have any bad ideas about this chicken. It’s my little bro from now on!" Zhou Qing said seriously.

Yan Xiaohu just snorted again and turned to leave.

This deceptive old hen, even if given to him for free, he wouldn’t want it lest it chip his teeth.

But after taking a few steps, Zhou Qing stopped, then looked towards the horizon.

Yan Xiaohu patted his shoulder and said, "Stop waiting. I heard that Sikong Yan from the Cangyan Daoist Palace has been pursuing Immortal Xuan You relentlessly. She got so annoyed she moved to an inn in Flame Dragon City. So, no breakfast for you."

Zhou Qing was stunned, then scratched his head awkwardly, and the two of them headed down the mountain.

Flame Dragon City!

By noon, the battle had indeed resumed, and in the crowd, Zhou Qing deliberately distanced himself from the Third Brother, holding the old hen and acting as a mere spectator.

[Ignore Point +1]

[Ignore Point +1]

[Skill Fragment +1]

......

Nearing the afternoon, unexpectedly, another skill fragment refreshed, which made Zhou Qing overjoyed.

Thus, he had two fragments now, only one more to synthesize a new talent skill.

This filled Zhou Qing with anticipation.

Over the next ten days, with the continuous increase in ignore points, a virtuous cycle formed. More and more people began to overlook him, increasing his points steadily.

[Ignore Point +1]

[Skill Fragment +1]

[Ignore Point +1]

......

Today, another skill fragment refreshed. Not only that, but his talent skill [Lowering Presence] also successfully leveled up to three.

[Skill Fragments: 3/3 (can obtain)]

"Obtain."

In his excitement, Zhou Qing quickly synthesized.

The skill fragments instantly reset to zero, and "can obtain" turned to "cannot obtain."

Soon, a piece of information appeared in his mind.

[Talent Skill—Daily Reflection: Can identify all things in the world except humans. This talent is a fixed skill, cannot be upgraded, and cannot increase usage times.]

Zhou Qing blinked, surprised that the talent skill he obtained this time was fixed. Identifying all things in the world?

What does that mean?

But it sounded quite interesting.

With a thought, the panel appeared.

[Name: Zhou Qing]

[Age: Nineteen]

[Cultivation: Mid Foundation Establishment]

[Cultivation Technique: Taiqing Profound Qi Skills]

[Talent Skills: Daily Reflection,

Heart Mirror Vision—LV2 (55/200),

Lowering Presence—LV3 (1/100)]

[Skill Fragments: 0/3 (cannot obtain)]

Looking at the seemingly not-so-bright old hen in his arms, Zhou Qing used the Daily Reflection skill.

He quickly received the result.

[Egg Treasure Chicken: A rare overly mutated spirit chicken with powerful digestion capabilities. It can devour anything and purify it, then lay eggs to expel it. Feed it well and stroll it often to increase egg-laying chances.]

Information appeared before him, and Zhou Qing finally understood what his new talent skill "Daily Reflection" meant.

Except for humans, he could identify one object a day.

"An overly mutated Egg Treasure Chicken? I knew something was off after all the research I did. No wonder I couldn’t find anything related to you. Turns out you’re mutated!"

Zhou Qing was speechless.

He had found information on Egg Treasure Chickens before; they were colorful and much larger than this one, famous for laying at least ten eggs a day.

So your seemingly not-so-bright ordinary chicken look is due to over-mutation.

Zhou Qing couldn’t help but laugh wryly.

But it seemed to be a mixed blessing. Though it over-mutated, who made it meet him? From now on, it wouldn’t have to struggle to lay eggs daily, destined to be slaughtered when it aged.

He would provide it a retirement, in exchange for one spirit egg every ten days to a half month. Fair trade, right?

Zhou Qing petted the chicken’s head with a grin.

[Heart Mirror Point +3]

Just as Zhou Qing was rejoicing, a prompt suddenly sounded.

This made him pause, and as he looked around, he quickly saw Li Daoxuan.

Li Daoxuan seemed to glance at Zhou Qing unintentionally, showing a look of disdain before turning his attention back to the battle in the square.

Initially, the note above his head was "Shameless Pervert," but it quickly changed to "Chicken-loving Pervert."

Zhou Qing was furious.

What’s wrong with me playing with my chicken? What does it have to do with you?

Do you believe I’ll find a chicken for you?

Ridiculous!
