Novel Bin Chapter 9: Just Why Can’t I Control My Hand?!
In the eyes of Chu Qingwu and the other bystanders, after Su Mo consumed the origin pearl, a dense moon-white color suddenly rose from his body.
This color was the spiritual color of the Transcendent profession.
It had a lot to do with one’s profession itself.
Once such color that ordinary people would never have appeared on one’s body, one had undoubtedly successfully become a Transcendent.
This made the onlooking crowd completely relieved.
It should be known that not all ordinary people could successfully advance to become Transcendents.
This was a leap in the essence of life and thus contained quite a high risk.
Even though the origin pearl had been continuously improved throughout the generations, due to the huge difference in physiques, many had failed in the process.
The better ones were either seriously injured or had their talents destroyed, while the ones who had it worse would even turn straight into terrifying monsters.
Fortunately, such a terrible situation did not occur, and they successfully gained a sword saint.
“How do you feel? Do you feel that the entire world has changed?” Xu Liushuang looked at Su Mo and asked with a big smile.
“Indeed, not only can I see more clearly, but I can also hear more clearly. It also seems that my physical fitness has improved a lot,” Su Mo jumped on the spot, feeling as light as a swallow.
Then, he casually threw a punch to the side, only to hear the sound of the wind whistling from his punch.
He was shocked.
Zhang Zhenyu seemed to see his past self. He chuckled and said, “After successfully taking up a Transcendent profession, your body would be strengthened accordingly. The direction of strengthening for different professions might be different. For example, the berserkers lean toward strength, the gunners focus on reaction speed, while the sword saints are more balanced. It could be said to be an overall improvement. Although you may look mediocre in all aspects at the beginning, you will have no shortcomings in the later stages. In addition, every profession would awaken a new ability after advancement. You should know what your ability is now, right?”
“My ability?” Su Mo thought about it, and a flash of light suddenly appeared in his mind.
He stretched out his right hand and clenched his fingers. With that, a stream of air immediately appeared in his hand and quickly condensed into a white long sword.
The sword was about one meter long and three centimeters wide. It was a typical rapier without a handguard.
Seeing the rapier, Chu Qingwu’s eyes flashed with a trace of surprise, “You actually awakened the sword condensation technique? ”
“Is there a problem?” Su Mo humbly asked for advice.
“It’s an excellent ability,” Chu Qingwu explained with a smile, “The first thing you need to know about abilities is that the abilities we awaken when we awaken at the start of our profession and when we advance in level are not fixed. For example, a sword saint could awaken a sword aura slash, finger sword, instant sword, or other related abilities. Among these abilities, the sword condensation technique is considered a very outstanding ability. It’s suitable for surprise attacks and also for prolonged battles. That being said, your rapier is so thin. I suspect it will break in battle.”
Su Mo flicked the sword in his hand. It was so light and did not seem to weigh much.
This made him feel a little uncertain.
“There’s no harm in trying,” Old Master Zhou threw a push-up bar over.
Su Mo reflexively slashed, and the bar instantly broke into two.
The whole process was as smooth as butter.
Su Mo looked at the stainless steel section of the bar in shock.
The rapier was so sharp that it didn’t even feel like a sword.
Old Master Zhou said with a smile, “This sword is formed from your ability. Don’t think of it as a common physical instrument. Besides, the abilities of Transcendents can be continuously strengthened and improved. Perhaps today, you can only form a sword that lasts for five minutes in battle, but through training and growth, you may be able to form a two-handed epee and fight for ten minutes after some time.”
Su Mo immediately became excited, “Then, can I form a 40-meter-long sword? ”
“Even 400 meters wouldn’t be a problem.”
Su Mo imagined that scene.
Well, he would let his opponent run 399 meters first.
Xu Liushuang clapped his hands and was so excited that his beard curled upwards, “Alright, since you have successfully become a Transcendent and your ability has been confirmed, Xiao Chu, take him to complete the registration and employment file. We’ll go to the Yexuan Restaurant for a meal at noon. I’ll treat to celebrate the joining of a sword saint.”
Su Mo obediently followed Chu Qingwu and began to finish the procedures.
After completing a pile of forms, Su Mo took advantage of the time when Chu Qingwu was entering the forms and impatiently looked at his virtual interface.
Two new lines of words had appeared on the panel.
[Profession: Level 1 Sword Saint]
[Ability: Level 1 Sword Condensation Technique]
Level 1?
Putting his profession aside, sure enough, just as Old Master Zhou had said, the sword condensation technique could be upgraded.
Su Mo did not think too much about it and immediately opened the lottery interface.
Seeing that the lock was still on the interface, he focused his consciousness on it.
The next second, a notification popped up on the interface.
[Profession confirmed, lottery function activated.]
Then, the lock was opened before turning into a mist of light and disappearing.
The foggy lottery interface also became clear, turning into a starry sky.
On the lower left corner of the starry sky was an option named [details].
Focusing his consciousness on it, a few lines of text immediately appeared before him.
[1. Lifespan will be consumed during the lottery.]
[2. The prizes are divided into three grades: gold, purple, and white.]
[3. Among ten draws, it is guaranteed that there will be one purple item.]
[4. Among 100 draws, it is guaranteed that there will be one gold item.]
[ 5. Gold items provide various Transcendent professions, purple items provide various Transcendent skills, and white items provide cultivation and skill EXP.]
[6. Drawing the same profession or skill will be converted into the corresponding EXP.]
Looking at the detailed description of the lottery draw items, Su Mo’s heart trembled.
Never mind the skills, he could even get Transcendent professions?
What the f*ck didn’t even cover this!
More importantly, this card pool had some guarantees!
Among 100 draws, one would definitely obtain a Transcendent profession.
Wasn’t this too generous?!
It didn’t look like a black-hearted mobile game.
Su Mo could not help but want to give the development team a thumbs up.
He looked at the card draw option at the bottom right corner.
The option on the left was to perform a single draw, while the one on the right was to perform a ten-combo draw.
The upper right corner showed his limited lifespan.
Looking at the 81, Su Mo felt his heart sink, “F*ck, can’t I just get 100? 100 draws guarantee a gold item!!”
Su Mo only managed to control his hand after great difficulty, “Calm down! I must stay calm! Even if I can perform a hundred draws, I can’t use all my lifespan. This is seriously putting my life on the line just to draw a card!”
…
“But I have more than eighty draws now. In theory, I should be able to draw a Transcendent profession even without the 100-draw guarantee. My luck isn’t bad either. I won another bottle of green tea last week. Who knows, I might be able to draw a Transcendent profession if I perform ten consecutive draws since I’m so lucky.”
…
“Lucky my ass! This is playing with my life! If I lose all rationality, I might die just from drawing the lottery! Also, so what if I have one more profession? I haven’t even figured out the sword saint profession yet! Hey myself, don’t you know that you can’t bite off more than you can chew?”
…
Su Mo was in a dilemma.
After a long time, he made up his mind to postpone drawing cards and study the sword saint profession first.
However, the moment he closed the lottery screen, a meteor suddenly streaked across the bright starry sky.
“Just why can’t I control my hand?!”
