Free Web NovelChapter 2: Chapter 2: Gaining Experience Points, Body Cultivation Level 1
And this Black Tripod that had suddenly appeared!
From the mouth of the tripod, a brilliant blue radiance erupted.
Immediately after, these rays of light converged.
A portrait quickly materialized.
The image depicted was that of a brawny, imposing man with a ferocious expression.
[Criminal: Lin Hu]
[Sin Level: One-Star]
[Strength: Tongxuan Third Layer]
[Status: Near Death (Imprisoned)]
[Suppression Involvement: 3%]
[Reward: 5 Experience Points/shichen]
To the right of the portrait was a column of patterns shimmering with a silver glow.
Su Bai casually clicked on one of the patterns.
A scene then floated before his eyes, showing Lin Hu using his cultivation to bully the common folk.
He clicked on another pattern.
This one showed Lin Hu beating an honest commoner to death, seizing his wife, and committing filthy acts with her in their room!
’Damn... he’s a freaking homewrecker!’
A surge of anger rose in Su Bai, and he couldn’t help but spit in disgust.
Seeing this, Su Bai viciously kicked Lin Hu!
The latter awoke with a pained whimper, tears streaming down his face.
What was there to cry about?!
He got what he deserved!
Su Bai kicked him a few more times!
The final kick landed squarely on his ruined crotch!
The man was sent into a world of excruciating pain!
’This must be my golden finger...’
After venting his frustration.
Su Bai began to observe the mysterious Black Tripod before him!
A moment later, a realization dawned on him.
This was a Purification Tripod!
Any criminal bearing sin that Su Bai participated in suppressing...
...would be recorded on the Purification Tripod!
And these criminals, based on their own strength, the severity of their sins, and the degree of Su Bai’s involvement in their suppression!
...would provide him with different rewards!
’My Suppression Involvement for Lin Hu this time is 3%!’
’The reward is five Experience Points every shichen!’
Su Bai then stared at the reward in the last column.
His gaze lingered on the two words "Experience Points"!
As a member of the transmigrator army, Su Bai was naturally aware of what Experience Points could do.
This stuff could help him with Breaking Realms!
Simply put, Su Bai could get stronger just by idling!
The Martial Dao of this world was roughly divided into Body Refining, Tongxuan, Qi Sea, Divine Power, Extraordinary...
As for the realms beyond that, Su Bai wasn’t very clear.
’I was only responsible for imprisoning Lin Hu this time, so my Suppression Involvement is very low, only 3%...’
’If I had suppressed Lin Hu all by myself, from start to finish!’
’Then my Suppression Involvement would surely be much higher, maybe even reaching one hundred percent. In that case, the reward...’
A flicker of delight crossed Su Bai’s face at the thought. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
Although he didn’t know what the reward for perfect Suppression Involvement would be.
It was definitely much better than his current reward!
Of course, he currently had no cultivation to speak of. Forget about Lin Hu at the Tongxuan Third Layer.
He wouldn’t even be a match for a Martial Artist at the Body Cultivation Realm!
’No rush. Can’t get ahead of myself. One step at a time...’
’I can get stronger just by idling now. The priority is to use the Experience Points to raise my own Martial Arts Cultivation!’
’As for Suppression Involvement, that will naturally increase once I get stronger!’
Su Bai didn’t become arrogant or conceited just because of the Black Tripod’s appearance.
After clarifying his goals, Su Bai took a moment to compose himself.
Then he hauled Lin Hu up and continued forward.
...
"Haha! Old Li! You lost again!"
"Fill it up! Fill my cup to the brim!"
After the day’s work was done, inside the punishment chamber.
Several older Prison Guards were laughing, drinking, and playing finger-guessing games.
A Prison Guard’s job was hard, and there weren’t many forms of entertainment in the prison.
So, when they had free time, the guards would drink and make merry.
The Prison Chiefs didn’t say much about it.
After all, if you keep your emotions bottled up all the time.
A person’s mind is bound to have problems!
Not to mention, in the extremely poor and oppressive environment of the prison, without some recreational activities to release the pressure in their hearts.
Many Prison Guards simply wouldn’t be able to last!
And Li Da, naturally, was among them.
Seeing Su Bai enter.
Li Da casually tossed a bottle of wine over, then asked.
"You done with your task?"
Su Bai caught the strong liquor and nodded with a smile.
The two chatted for a while longer, then Li Da paid him no more mind.
He went back to drinking and playing finger-guessing games with a few of his shirtless buddies.
Su Bai found a slightly quieter spot in the spacious room.
He sat on a cold iron stool and unscrewed the wine flask.
Then he tilted his head back and took a swig of the liquor!
The liquor was harsh, filling Su Bai’s chest like fire.
It also dispelled some of the chill clinging to his body.
The light from the wall-mounted torches danced on the green wine flask.
Su Bai tightened his grip on the flask slightly, then proceeded to inspect the Purification Tripod in his mind!
This time, the image that appeared on the Purification Tripod...
...was not the suppressed Lin Hu, but Su Bai’s own information!
[Tripod Master: Su Bai (Frail)]
[Realm: None (0/100)]
[Cultivation Technique: None]
[Stored Experience Points: 5]
His information was very simple.
He was basically just a perfectly ordinary person, with no cultivation and a somewhat sickly body.
One shichen had passed since he locked Lin Hu in the prison cell.
Therefore, Su Bai had received a reward of five Experience Points!
’The reward is five Experience Points per shichen.’
’After just twenty shichen, I’ll be able to accumulate 100 Experience Points.’
’That way, I should be able to break through to the Body Cultivation First Layer.’
Su Bai guessed to himself.
Of course, he wasn’t in a hurry. He just had to idle, anyway!
Including Li Da, the dozen or so people in their group supervised a region.
A region of several dozen C-Class Prisons!
And the criminals locked up in the C-Class Prisons generally weren’t very strong.
In terms of safety, it was a fairly stable post.
Their daily duties, aside from receiving new criminals and locking them in the cells.
...was to just give them some food to eat, enough so they wouldn’t starve to death!
Other than that, there was basically nothing else to do.
It was quite idle.
「Nearing noon.」
Su Bai carried trays of food and delivered them to a dozen or so prisoners.
As for the taste of the food...
It couldn’t be said to be good!
One could only say that it was a slight step up from stinking slop. freёwebnoѵel.com
Su Bai had nothing to do for the entire afternoon.
He rather hoped a new prisoner would be sent in.
Unfortunately, not a single new prisoner arrived by the time the shift changed in the evening.
He followed Li Da to make his rounds.
Afterward, he returned to his own quarters, fell into bed, and slept.
The next day, Su Bai’s work was still simple and easy.
However, still no new criminals were locked up.
In the evening, Su Bai returned to his quarters.
After waiting a short while, he saw on his information panel...
...that his stored Experience Points had reached one hundred!
Su Bai took a deep breath.
Then he spent all the Experience Points on his Realm!
With a DING!
The information that originally read,
"Realm: None (0/100)"...
...changed to "Realm: Body Cultivation First Layer (0/200)"!
