Chapter 265: Setting Priorities Straight

265- Setting Priorities Straight

Mass Release: 3 out of 5

=========

Maybe I am not the only one, who has a Dantian Potential of more than Rank 12 in this world.

I am sure that there should be someone or some people who could have broken this barrier.

Just think about it. Since my stats are able to enhance my body and soul, then I am sure that there are many special items, treasures, techniques, or medicines/pills, that can do the same.

So, there are people who have raised their Dantian potential to Rank 13 or more.

But they decided to remain quiet as they too wanted to keep secrets from the world.

Just like how, I never heard anything about the term- Dantian Potential, before I got the Brown book or while I was at the Leon clan.

Similarly, there should be people hiding things like these.

And if there is a so-called higher realm where the conditions to cultivate are many times better, then I am sure that people who can have the dantian potential of Rank 12 will be in huge numbers. And there should be no shortage of people with higher Dantian Potential.

So, I need to test the depth of the system...

Orochi contemplated silently as he focused on the system window flashing in front of his eyes.

This is the advantage as well as the disadvantage of a reincarnated guy who has read many cultivation novels.

They can easily imagine things that are hardly known or could be ever imagined by the people of this world.

They know that there is a higher realm, they know cultivation never ends, they know how the big factions work, they know how enemies think, they are more open to experimenting and researching- instead of blindly walking on the path walked by others.

Because all these are things they have read in their free time or to pass the time in boring days.

But the disadvantage is that they can never fully or properly enjoy the feeling of discovering new things or a new world.

To them, anything happening around them or any event will be within their expectations.

They would have almost everything figured out.

Just look at Orochis condition, few seconds ago he wanted to scream like a kid who found his favorite toy, but his knowledge had immediately cooled his excitement.

Being a reincarnated person can also be troublesome sometimes.

.

After calming down, or in other words- after pouring cold on himself, Orochi looked at the updated specifications of his dantian.

ding

The current dantians grade is Golden [Rank 9].

Current conversion ratio of Worlds spiritual qi to Hosts spiritual qi is 12:1.

The Dantian can store about 91231 units of spiritual qi.

.

Well, at least seeing this, a small appeared on his face.

But that smile also faded away when he realized that, if he wants to fill his dantian with spiritual qi, then he would have to either convert almost all his MP or consume more than 10,000 Low grade energy stones.

Which is a heavy price for him.

Forget about consuming 10,000 low grade energy stones, because his Miser character will never allow him to do that.

Just converting almost his MP to spiritual qi, is a very painful thing for Orochi.

Why? Because if he does that then his Free Stat Points converting business will be closed.

Not to mention, as he finally found a way to increase the Dantian potential, he now needs Free Stats Points more than ever.

Finally, Orochi feels the burden and pain of having such strength but low money to support it.

The situation is like- a person who worked hard for 10-15 years of his life and saved a large amount of money and even took a loan to buy a supercar.

And when that person buys the supercar, he finally realizes the true horror - The cost of maintaining it.

His condition is so miserable that he is not even able to buy fuel for his car as he almost spent his savings to buy the supercar.

.

The same goes for Orochi.

Thinking about his situation, Orochi was trying to think of something that can solve his problem,

No, this cant go on like this.

I need to set my priorities straight.

And my top priority is to get a large number of Free Stat points. So that I can increase my stats to its limit and then take my Dantian Potential further.

And I only have two ways of earning Free stat points. One is by leveling up and the other being exchanging MP for Free Stat points.

If I depend on leveling, then the number of Free stat points that I can earn will be a pitiful amount.

So, I can only depend on the MP exchange method.

But currently, my MP limit has crossed 500 thousand units. So, if I want to get Free stat points by converting MP, then I will have to exchange about 50,000 MP and even then, I will only get 2-4 points.

And with the speed at which my MP recovers, I can only get 150 to 200 Free stat points every day and that too by sacrificing my training.

That means, I have to find a way to either increase my MP recovery rate or use the money to buy a large number of MP Potions.

If I depend on MP potions to get Free stat points, then I will have to spend at least 6-9 Trillion Sikka, which is almost 6-9 million Low grade energy stones. And if I want to get such an amount then I would have to either sell half of the Stalactite milk or other possessions.

And, unless it is an emergency, I dont want to depend on paying such a huge amount.

So, the only way remaining is to upgrade my MP recovery rate. And there are two ways I can do that.

First is by increasing my Sense stat, which at some point should upgrade the hidden ability related to the MP recovery rate. But even if I invest all the remaining Free stat points, I am not sure if it will help me by a large degree, and I would have to still gather more Free stat points.

So, currently, I can only opt for the second method- Upgrading Sorcerer Job.

The Sorcerer Job is at Level 3, and it increases his MP recovery rate by 300%. So, if I further increase its Job level, then the MP recovery rate will be boosted. And I can exchange MP repeatedly for free stat points.

So... thats it. Since I cannot show my abilities to June and Armelia, I will make an excuse and go out alone. Then I will go to the Dark Forest once again and try to upgrade Sorcerer Job level.

Also, I can scout for precious herbs, ores, and monster corpses in the Dark Forest to make another wave of money.

And finally, Orochi found a solution to his problem.

So, without any further delay, he decided to get ready and go to the Dark Forest.

But first, he decided to increase his Sense Stat and see if he could increase his MP recovery rate.

So, he told the system to add 6000 Free stat Points to the Sense Stat.

ding

Sense Stat has increased by 6000 points.
