"Oh, what the heck? No way?"
"My Child of Destiny trait actually upgraded, and now it's white quality?"
"Doesn't that mean... Zhang Xiaofan has become a substitute!"
After all, opportunities like this truly mean one step ahead leads to being steps ahead.
What's more, Su Han knew the plot beforehand, how could he possibly give Zhang Xiaofan another chance to surpass him?
However, at the same time, Su Han was also a little surprised.
He didn't expect that traits of the same category could actually merge and upgrade with each other, this was a function the system hadn't clearly stated before.
"Traits can be upgraded."
"This way, the system's potential and operability have greatly increased!"
Su Han's heart was filled with joy.
For example, Zhang Xiaofan possesses a golden trait: Excellent Comprehension.
Previously, if Su Han plundered this trait, he could at most only keep it at golden quality.
But, if traits can merge and upgrade with each other.
Then in the future, if Su Han were to plunder another trait related to comprehension from someone else, could it also allow the Excellent Comprehension trait to continue upgrading?
Until it upgrades to Heaven-defying Comprehension?
Or even, Creation Manipulation?!
Thinking of this possibility, Su Han's eyes were full of joy, his fists clenched, and the smile on his face was impossible to hide.
After a while.
Su Han took a deep breath and composed himself.
Looking at the children's figures who had already run away from under the big tree, "Now that the first trait has been plundered, I should also go and wait for Monk Pu Zhi to arrive."
He murmured in his heart.
Su Han stood up and walked towards the dilapidated temple not far outside Caomiao Village.
When Su Han arrived at the dilapidated temple.
He saw that inside the temple, Lin Jingyu's wooden sword was pressed against Zhang Xiaofan, and he shouted loudly, "Do you submit?"
"Less nonsense, we haven't finished fighting yet!"
Zhang Xiaofan retorted loudly, and at the same time, taking advantage of Lin Jingyu holding back, he knocked Lin Jingyu's wooden sword to the ground.
Lin Jingyu seemed a little angry, he didn't speak, and sullenly walked towards the wooden sword.
But at this moment, Su Han discovered that at some point, an almost imperceptible crimson color had appeared in Lin Jingyu's eyes.
"Has Pu Zhi arrived?"
Su Han was startled, but he still remained calm, not turning his head to look around.
Instead, he silently watched Lin Jingyu, who was fighting with Zhang Xiaofan again.
Lin Jingyu was indeed a Sword Dao genius possessing the Sword Dao Unparalleled (Red) trait. Even without anyone teaching him swordsmanship, his sword techniques were far beyond what the current Zhang Xiaofan could compare to.
Therefore, after just a few moves, Lin Jingyu had already pressed the wooden sword against Zhang Xiaofan's neck, "Do you submit?"
"No!"
As Lin Jingyu questioned him, Zhang Xiaofan still refused to admit defeat.
But this time, Lin Jingyu, who was influenced by the bloodthirsty bead, didn't hold back like before. Instead, because Zhang Xiaofan refused to admit defeat, he used even more force.
Soon, Zhang Xiaofan's face turned red from holding his breath, and he couldn't breathe.
The redness in Lin Jingyu's eyes also became more obvious.
Outside the dilapidated temple.
An old monk saw this scene, lowered his head to look at the bloodthirsty bead on his prayer beads, and softly chanted a Buddhist name in his heart.
"amitabha."
"It seems that young benefactor has been influenced by the bloodthirsty bead."
Saying this, the old monk wanted to step forward to stop him.
But the next second, Pu Zhi was surprised to find.
He saw that while many children were scared out of their wits.
A child wearing black clothes, however, calmly picked up a wooden sword that had fallen to the ground, and with a gentle flick, separated the child influenced by the bloodthirsty bead from the other child.
"This child is not only unaffected by the bloodthirsty bead, but can also remain so calm in times of danger?"
Pu Zhi was a little surprised to see this scene, and a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes.
And inside the dilapidated temple.
Lin Jingyu angrily pointed his wooden sword at Su Han, who had separated him from Zhang Xiaofan, "Who are you?"
While questioning, he gripped the wooden sword mercilessly and rushed towards Su Han.
Su Han's brows furrowed slightly upon seeing the exceptionally combative Lin Jingyu, who was influenced by the bloodthirsty bead.
He was just about to use the wooden sword to block.
But at this moment.
Su Han discovered that between him and Lin Jingyu, an old monk wearing a black and white kasaya and holding a string of prayer beads had appeared at some point.
Seeing the old monk, Su Han immediately opened the system.
Instantly, a panel that only he could see appeared before Su Han.
[Name: Pu Zhi]
[Identity: One of the Four Divine Monks of Tianyin Temple]
[Possessed Traits: Buddhist Dharma Embodiment (Gold), Merit Treasure Wheel (Purple), Exceptional Talent (Purple)...]
"As expected, the time is not yet ripe, there is only a golden trait of Buddhist Dharma Embodiment."
Su Han shook his head slightly in dissatisfaction and did not choose to plunder Pu Zhi's trait for now.
And just as Su Han was checking Pu Zhi's traits.
"amitabha."
The old monk Pu Zhi softly chanted a Buddhist name towards Lin Jingyu.
Instantly, the red light in Lin Jingyu's eyes faded.
"This child of yours has a knack for subduing enemies, and his bones are also good, his aptitude can be considered excellent."
Hearing this, Lin Jingyu angrily retorted, "Where did this old monk come from?"
At the same time, he quickly ran to Zhang Xiaofan's side and helped him up with some lingering fear.
Pu Zhi ignored Lin Jingyu and looked at Zhang Xiaofan instead, "Young benefactor, you just needed to admit defeat just now, why did you have to struggle so hard?"
After speaking.
Pu Zhi turned his head to look at Su Han, "If this young benefactor hadn't acted, I'm afraid you would have lost your life for nothing."
"amitabha."
"Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda, benefactor's merit is immeasurable."
Hearing this, Su Han smiled slightly at Pu Zhi, "It was just a small effort, Master is overpraising me."
And at this moment, Lin Jingyu pulled Zhang Xiaofan, "Xiao Fan, this old monk is strange, let's hurry and leave."
Although Zhang Xiaofan had doubts in his heart, he ultimately just glanced at Pu Zhi a few times and still allowed Lin Jingyu to pull him away.
Soon.
Inside the dilapidated temple, only Su Han and Pu Zhi remained.
"Young benefactor, why haven't you left yet?"
Pu Zhi looked at Su Han, who hadn't left and instead found a comfortable spot to sit down leaning against a pillar, and felt a little confused.
"Why should I leave?"
Su Han smiled faintly, and then continued, "I observe that Master is not a bad person."
"If Master truly had malicious intentions, with the skill Master displayed in appearing so suddenly just now, Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu would not have been able to leave safely at all."
Hearing this, Pu Zhi smiled slightly, "Young benefactor is so intelligent, calm and collected, and can also decisively act to save people, which is rare."
"It's just that I observe those children don't seem to know young benefactor."
"May I ask, young benefactor, where do you come from? And why did you come to Caomiao Village?"
Su Han shook his head, "I cannot say, I promised the village chief that I would not tell anyone my origin."
"But I can tell Master my purpose, I want to apprentice at Qingyun Sect."
"Apprentice at Qingyun Sect?"
Pu Zhi was somewhat enlightened upon hearing Qingyun Sect, and at the same time, he nodded slightly.
"Caomiao Village is at the foot of Qingyun Sect Mountain, it is normal to come to Caomiao Village to apprentice at Qingyun Sect, this old monk was overthinking."
Saying this.
Pu Zhi no longer spoke and closed his eyes to rest.
Su Han did the same.
Soon, the sky gradually darkened.
Outside the door, footsteps sounded.
And hearing the footsteps, Su Han suddenly opened his eyes, "Is Cang Song coming?"
"My chance to plunder traits has finally arrived!"
"I wonder what kind of surprise the traits of Pu Zhi, who is one with Buddha and Demon, will give me?!"
