Chapter 270 System Upgrade Follow-up
Yuan Bao sat in front of the screen, his eyes fixed on the system interface, his brows furrowed, still studying how he could improve as quickly as possible after the system upgrade.
Little 9, curiously bouncing around, couldn't help but ask, "My lady, what are you thinking about? You look so serious."
Yuan Bao looked up at Xiao 9 and said seriously, "Xiao 9, I'm thinking about how to improve our skills after the system upgrades. I plan to do it one by one, starting by upgrading the Special Grade Traditional Chinese Medicine skill and Special Grade Fighting Skill to the top level. What do you think?"
Little 9 excitedly spun around, flashing blue light: "Wow, Master, this is a must! It'll be super powerful after the upgrade!"
Yuan Bao's lips curled into a confident smile, and he then opened the game store.
Her fingers flew across the screen, quickly searching for the top-tier, full-version purchase option for the "Special Grade Traditional Chinese Medicine Skills."
"Little 9, look, this top-level complete version of the Special Grade Traditional Chinese Medicine skill costs 1000 million game coins."
As Yuan Bao spoke, he clicked to buy without hesitation, "Although it's expensive, the boost this skill upgrade will provide is immense, it's worth it!"
Immediately afterwards, Yuan Bao used the same method, spending 1000 million game coins to acquire the top-level complete version of the Special Fighting Technique.
As soon as the purchase confirmation command was issued, the system interface instantly lit up brightly, and a series of prompts popped up rapidly.
Little 9 excitedly shouted, "Master, look! Congratulations to the player for purchasing the top-tier complete version of the Superior Traditional Chinese Medicine skill! The skill is being activated... The top-tier complete version of the Superior Martial Arts skill has been successfully purchased. Activation process is in progress..."
"Huh! This top-tier skill isn't like before, where a flash of white light and everything just drilled into my brain!"
Yuan Bao stared intently at the screen, his eyes gleaming with excitement, muttering, "Quick, let me see what it looks like after the upgrade."
A moment later, the light gradually faded, and a brand-new skill introduction interface slowly unfolded.
Yuan Bao couldn't wait to check the description of the top-level TCM skills, listening to Xiao 9's explanation as he read: "My lord, look, it's listed in detail here."
In the future, diagnosing illnesses will definitely be more accurate, and we will be able to formulate rarer and more potent medications, and even develop some unique treatment methods.
Yuan Bao leaned closer to the screen curiously: "Wow, that sounds amazing! Can it be used in battle?"
Xiao 9 laughed and said, "Of course! Take the skill that the captain used when we teamed up last time, Dancing Charm, for example. Those control skills that make people dizzy, confused, silent, or asleep can be easily removed with this top-notch traditional Chinese medicine skill."
As she spoke, Xiao 9 activated a simulated battle scene, unleashing her skills and seemingly releasing a mysterious and gentle energy fluctuation.
"Look, like this, it can quickly dispel the negative status effects on teammates, allowing them to immediately regain their senses and continue fighting."
Moreover, this skill has an exceptional healing ability if a teammate is injured.
Whether it's a superficial wound or a severe internal injury, after using this skill, the wound can heal at a visible speed, and the pain can be quickly reduced.
Little 9 clapped excitedly: "Master, after your upgrade, your strength has greatly increased. You'll definitely be even more invincible in the game from now on!"
Yuan Bao excitedly continued to share the wonders of top-tier TCM skills with Xiao 9: "Xiao 9, look at this description. The treatment scope of these top-tier TCM skills has been greatly expanded. They are no longer just for a single target."
As long as teammates are within a certain range, they can all be covered by this skill at the same time and receive timely and effective treatment.
This provides the team with extremely robust and reliable medical support during intense battles.
Although its healing effect is slightly inferior to the group healing skill of the Medicine King, it has a very short cooldown time and can be used repeatedly.
When facing a powerful enemy and everyone is in danger, this is an excellent way to save lives!
Little 9 calmly nodded in agreement: "Yes, Master, this skill is indeed more practical! As for the top-level fighting techniques, would you like me to explain them to you in more detail?"
Yuan Bao's eyes lit up, and he immediately became interested: "Of course! Tell me more about this top-level fighting technique. The description in the book is amazing. It gets my blood pumping."
Little 9 continued, "Its attack moves have become more ferocious and varied, and its attack range has been greatly expanded. Even more impressively, its defense and evasion skills have also been greatly enhanced. In future battles, we will have a greater advantage!"
Then he urged impatiently, "My lord, my lord, why don't you try both of these top-tier skills? We can see the effects together!"
Yuan Bao took a deep breath, and with a thought, he took the lead in displaying his top-notch traditional Chinese medicine skills.
She quickly formed hand seals, and a soft green light instantly emanated from her body.
Yuan Bao looked at Xiao 9 with disbelief and said, "Xiao 9, look at this light, could it contain powerful healing energy?"
"If I were in battle, could I send this light to my teammates, so their wounds would immediately stop bleeding, heal faster, and alleviate their pain?"
"Yes, my lord!"
Immediately afterwards, Yuan Bao switched to top-level fighting techniques and quickly assumed a fighting stance in the space.
She moved like lightning, her punches and kicks were incredibly fast, each movement creating a whooshing sound.
While demonstrating, Yuan Bao excitedly shouted, "Little 9, feel it! The air around us is vibrating with this powerful force! Compared to before, the speed and power of the attack have undergone a qualitative leap!"
Little 9 excitedly circled around Yuan Bao, cheering, "Yes, Master, I can feel it! You've become so much more powerful! With this top-tier skill, your strength has skyrocketed!"
Yuan Bao stopped what he was doing, his face beaming with a sense of accomplishment, and said to Xiao 9, "Yes, Xiao 9. I know in my heart that with these two skills successfully upgraded, I will be able to handle any situation more easily and skillfully when adventuring in the game world, no matter how powerful the enemy is or when I need to help my teammates resolve crises!"
"Mmm! My Lord is the best!" Little 9 gave a mindless compliment.
Yuan Bao said to Xiao 9 with great interest, "Xiao 9, next we should check out the group healing skill of the Medicine King."
As she spoke, she tapped the skill upgrade interface, and the new information after the system upgrade instantly appeared before her eyes.
Yuan Bao's eyes widened, and he shared with Xiao 9 with great surprise: "Xiao 9, look! After the system upgrade, the Medicine King's Divine Hand skill is stronger than I ever imagined!"
Compared to top-tier traditional Chinese medicine skills, its healing effect is significantly more powerful.
It can easily dispel common negative statuses such as dizziness, confusion, silence, and sleep, and even has a chance to remove troublesome special effects such as petrification and fox transformation.
This effect is simply phenomenal; in the game world, it's an absolute game-changer!
Before Xiao 9 could respond, Yuan Bao pointed out the only flaw in the ultimate skill: "Well, after the Medicine King's Divine Hand is upgraded, it is indeed powerful! But the fact that there is a certain cooldown time after each use is still a bit of a drawback."
Xiao 9 nodded and explained, "Of course, these special skills always need to have some thresholds and conditions, otherwise how can we highlight their extraordinary nature!"
My lord, don't worry. The cooldown time will decrease as the skill level increases.
Little 9 then asked, "My lord, have you seen what conditions are required to upgrade this skill?"
Yuan Bao smiled and said, "Yes! I see. It's the same as always, you just need game coins."
That's not a problem for me at all right now.
In this gaming world, I'm definitely not short of money anymore.
Upon hearing this, Xiao 9 thought to himself, "Heh! My young master has gotten too cocky! He's completely forgotten how embarrassed he was before when he didn't have the money to buy the 'Painful Amnesia Talisman' from the Immortal Realm."
I had to tell her that I obtained the 'Painful Amnesia Charm' by exchanging items with the seller via private message.
However, now that you've completed your cultivation journey and solved the problem of purchasing items from the celestial realm, you're starting to get cocky, aren't you?
Yuan Bao carefully examined the amount of gold coins required to upgrade the Medicine King's Skill and couldn't help but gasp: "Good heavens, it's a whopping 9 million gold coins to upgrade it to the current maximum level of the system."
"Even though it will cost me fifty million, and I'll lose almost half my gold coins, I won't hesitate at all," Yuan Bao muttered to himself, his fingers quickly clicking the upgrade button.
In an instant, the system interface shone brightly.
Yuan Bao, his face full of anticipation, said to Xiao 9, "Xiao 9, look, the upgrade process for the Medicine King's Divine Hand skill has started! Hehehe! I'm just waiting for it to show up in future dungeon battles, after the upgrade, bringing more protection and surprises to me and my teammates!"
After a series of operations and attempts.
Yuan Bao's gaze shifted to the Battle Spirits section: "Little 9, look at the detailed explanation of Battle Spirits here. It turns out that they can accumulate combat experience in battle and gain the opportunity to improve themselves."
However, once they reach a bottleneck, I, their owner, need to use resources to refine them in order to unlock their potential.
Moreover, the sooner this is done, the better. The battle spirits haven't reached their limits yet, so now is the perfect time.
Little 9 nodded repeatedly: "Yes! Master, there are so many details in this game. If you hadn't asked, I wouldn't have thought of so many. Luckily, you've thought of everything. Let's hurry up and gather resources to refine the battle spirits!"
Yuan Bao's gaze was fixed on the potential development interface of the battle spirits, and he asked Xiao 9 anxiously, "Xiao 9, tell me quickly, what resources are needed to refine the battle spirits?"
Little 9 spun around quickly in the air, flashing blue light, and said earnestly, "Yes, yes! I want to buy Spirit Beast Pills and the Heart of the Vast Ocean."
Spirit Beast Pills can help improve the cultivation level of battle spirits, while the Heart of the Ocean is a key item to help improve their comprehension.
Yuan Bao nodded thoughtfully. Seeing that Yuan Bao understood quickly, Xiao 9 continued to explain: "Master, you should know that the higher the cultivation and comprehension of a battle spirit, the more advanced the skills it gains when it improves on its own."
However, there is a very important point I need to emphasize to you.
Using Spirit Beast Pills and Heart of the Ocean does not guarantee a 100% success rate for upgrades; there is a certain degree of probability involved.
However, with repeated use, it will definitely improve your skills, my lord, do you understand what I mean?
After hearing this, Yuan Bao's lips curled up slightly, revealing a confident smile, and he said nonchalantly, "I understand, to put it bluntly, it just means spending more money!"
Hehehe! I'm not short of money these days, so this little expense is no problem for me!
After saying that, Yuan Bao excitedly opened the store and quickly entered "Spirit Beast Pill" and "Heart of the Vast Ocean" into the search bar.
When the search results popped up, she glanced at the prices and thought to herself: Hmm! The prices are reasonable, 10 yuan each.
Without the slightest hesitation, Yuan Bao's fingers flew across the screen, his gaze first falling on the Azure Dragon among the Four Divine Beasts.
She thought to herself, "I've often heard people say: Azure Dragon on the left, White Tiger on the right, Vermilion Bird in front, Black Tortoise behind. I'll follow this order to refine these four divine beasts!"
Then, I brought up the Azure Dragon's refining interface.
Then, with a flurry of rapid operations, and a series of confirmation commands for refining and purchasing, 300 million gold coins were instantly transferred from the account, successfully raising the Azure Dragon's cultivation and comprehension to the maximum level achievable by the system.
Seeing the dramatic changes in Qinglong's attribute panel, Yuan Bao's eyes were filled with joy.
Immediately afterwards, Yuan Bao turned his attention to Bai Hu.
The White Tiger has always been known for its agility and powerful attacks, and Yuan Bao knew that improving its strength was of utmost importance.
This time, the system shows that it is estimated to spend 400 million gold coins to purchase Spirit Beast Pills and the Heart of the Vast Ocean for the White Tiger, which will allow it to reach the maximum level.
After Yuan Bao clicked "Buy Now," the White Tiger began its automatic refining process.
As the item was used repeatedly, the White Tiger's aura grew stronger and stronger, and its attribute values continued to rise, eventually reaching the maximum level.
Then, Zhuque came into Yuan Bao's view.
Yuan Bao was deeply impressed by the fiery power of the Vermilion Bird, and she looked forward to the Vermilion Bird showing even more amazing strength after its upgrade.
This time, Yuan Bao waved his hand and threw down 500 million gold coins.
As the system notifications continued to ring out, Zhuque's cultivation and comprehension also reached their peak, and his body radiated an even more dazzling light, as if he could be reborn from the ashes at any moment and unleash a world-destroying power.
Finally, it was Xuanwu's turn.
As the king of defense, the potential of Xuanwu should not be underestimated.
Yuan Bao knew that to fully unleash the power of Xuanwu, a considerable amount of resources would be required.
As expected, this time, she spent a full 800 million gold coins to raise Xuanwu's cultivation and comprehension to the maximum level.
Looking at Xuanwu's rock-solid attribute panel, Yuan Bao nodded in satisfaction.
After all the battle spirits had successfully reached the maximum level, Yuan Bao leaned back in his chair, sighed slightly, and jokingly said, "Hey! Leveling up is really expensive. The higher you go, the more it costs."
However, as long as it makes my battle spirits stronger, the money is well spent!
After Yuan Bao finished upgrading the battle spirits, he relaxed and prepared to wash up and go to bed. Suddenly, the image of Ikkyu-san at the end of the anime "Ikkyu-san" flashed through his mind.
She smiled and, mimicking Ikkyu's playful and cute tone, said to Little 9, "Alright, Little 9, that's enough for now! Take a break, rest for a while!"
