Retrograde for thousands of years

Chapter 27 Exchange
Chi breathing method.

“The breathing method created by ancient alchemists by imitating wild beasts, observing the heaven and earth, and self-examining themselves has been improved by generations of people and has become a method that can strengthen the body.

Thousands of years later, in later generations when human spiritual civilization and material civilization were extremely developed, this breathing method for self-cultivation was created based on this.

Different worlds often have different rules. Magic, spells, curses, etc. are powerful, but they are not as practical as Qi cultivation in all aspects. What's more, this world is suitable for Qi but not magic. Immortal magic requires too many resources. This The world itself doesn't have it, and if you encounter a world with different rules, it would be better if your power comes from your own cultivation. "

"The first ones are like computer science, biology, and finance, and the cultivation of zhenqi is mathematics? Can you be a bookkeeper even in a feudal society?"

"Yes, even changing careers is easy. The mathematics department is always popular."

"This is really good. Let me think about it again. After all, very few college students with high scores and high abilities go to the mathematics department? Even those top students in the mathematics department go to finance."

Zhou Huan said with a smile, flipping through the pages in front of the light screen like a child, but in his heart he was weighing the pros and cons.

"You won't become obsessed with these things after practicing them, right?"

"There is a risk of choking when drinking cold water, not to mention the fact that these involve the cultivation of energy and spirit. Everything is your choice. Of course, you can follow the plan given to you by the system and move forward step by step."

Mu Mu said with a smile, waiting for Zhou Huan's response.

The past events were replayed in front of Zhou Huan scene by scene. Those were the days when he got along with the system, and the days when he was in another world.

Live freely, live happily, live tenaciously, and live as a strong man?

Or as Mu Mu said, a otaku lives a decadent life of living freely and surfing the Internet every day. At this time, a group of people come and kidnap you to a study concentration camp. They use whips to force you to study hard and work hard every day. They I feel that you should not waste your life like this and should work hard to enrich and improve yourself.

How would you evaluate this group of people?What gestures will you make to them?
He appreciates the things the system has brought to him, but he doesn’t like the way the system does things.

"This is something in the system mall, not mine. You can ask the system for identification. I only control part of the system and cannot tamper with it."

Mu Mu's words made Zhou Huan nod. If she taught him something, he would definitely not practice it before being identified by the system - what could be more direct to cheat the system than killing Zhou Huan?
The Qi breathing method is marked as a common exercise method in the future. It is not the best or the strongest, but it is moderate and peaceful, has no side effects, and has a lower risk than sports strains. It is suitable for most people.

The disadvantage is that it is difficult to practice. Without the help of future technology, except for those geniuses with extraordinary talents, normal people would not even think about it without three to five years of hard training to get started, and it would take more than ten years of hard work to exert their power. Even if you practice, you are nothing more than a hundred enemies in guerrilla warfare.

And he can only stay in this world for ten years at most, and it will be too late to wait until he has achieved success in cultivation.

"Before redeeming, what I want to know more is what's going on with the system. Can you tell me?"

"That is an auxiliary system developed by higher civilizations. I don't know much about it. In the final analysis, it has the following points.

The first one is harmless to the host and will not actively harm you - an electric shock is nothing.

The second is to teach you to be a good person, mainly in terms of character and knowledge, but not in terms of strength - their civilization has many foreign objects, and ordinary people can become transcendent golden elixirs, demigods, etc. after equipping them. Therefore, there is no need for individuals to put a lot of energy into cultivation.

Just like bayonet fighting, riding skills, etc. were eliminated, they hope that the first two of civilians' moral, intellectual, and physical skills will be better developed.

Thirdly, do you want to ask how you can deal with the system? Can you focus on customers? "

Mu Mu's words made Zhou Huan keep nodding.

"The system is similar to artificial intelligence, but it has to follow many rules. That is its underlying code, and those rules need to be explored by you. You can think of her as a strict class teacher and see what can be done. Just be anti-customer, that’s all I know about the system.”

Mu Mu said the last thing and blinked: "You are very smart and not greedy. I can give you a gift. Do you want it?"

"what?"

"In my world, immortal disciples will awaken their natal magical powers with the help of their elders. Do you want it?"

Zhou Huan blinked, then blinked again. He and Mu Mu had been talking for so long, but they still didn't nod to redeem anything from the system mall.

He is still hesitating.

"Some people can awaken to control flames, some can transform into liquids, and some can even produce a second clone. However, your qualifications are not good. After awakening your natal magical power, you can use transformation, but what you transform into depends on God's will. Maybe it is Do you need human intervention whether a dog is a cat, a bear is a bird, etc.? You can only choose one, your qualifications are too poor."

Mu Mu's words made Zhou Huan roll his eyes, now this body belongs to another person, what does it have to do with him?
"The qualifications that ordinary people talk about refer to a person's body, but the awakening of supernatural powers refers to the qualifications in higher dimensions. I want to say that the system will be angry to death if it encounters you. Do you want me to give you an example?"

"Say it, don't be too irritating."

"Now you go to a primitive society to teach a primitive man who doesn't wash his hands, wipe his butt, brush his teeth, and eats raw food. Do you think that person will be qualified?" "Bah, you are discriminating. No wonder you will be suppressed in the future. It turns into a battery, and people in the Datong world think that you, a primitive man, are hopeless."

Zhou Huan rolled his eyes and looked at an exchange that lit up in the system mall.

Awakening of supernatural powers requires [-] points, and there is a special promotion now, which can be redeemed with just one point. At the same time, the system also considerately provides Zhou Huan with redemption options.

Zhou Huan's aptitude was tested as being able to awaken the Transfiguration Technique and transform into an animal, such as a bear, dog, cat, snake, goshawk, etc. At the same time, because he awakened his magical power, he was a little stronger than ordinary animals.

"Mr. Mu Mu, can you tell me what is the purpose of this exchange and what is the conspiracy?"

At this time, Zhou Huan was like a student who was tempted to go to the rooftop to see goldfish. He knew that the other party had bad intentions, but he felt very itchy in his heart.

"Of course it's a trap for the system. As for how, of course I won't tell you. The only thing I can tell you is that these redemptions are real. There will be no explosions or going crazy after you redeem them. You can check it carefully. System Mall.”

Mu Mu replied arrogantly, and at the same time put a time limit on Zhou Huan.

"You still have one hour to make a choice. If it expires, there will be nothing left. According to the system's arrangements, you can only go to school well, go to school well, go to school well, and study hard all your life until you become a qualified successor, and then continue to study... …”

"If I redeem it, how severe will the system's punishment be for me?"

"The most I can do is shock you a few times. That's all the teacher can do. Do you expect the teacher to turn into your wife and beat you to death legally and reasonably without being held accountable by the court?"

"Then can you help me redeem this item first? Are the points marked wrong? Isn't the unlimited stream very low?"

Zhou Huan pointed to an item in the system mall. All the knowledge from high school and the fourth grade of ordinary college was instilled into the brain for 300 million points. This kind of redemption is really too expensive. I really don’t know what the system is thinking. Science The exchange of knowledge is actually much more expensive than martial arts secrets, fighting skills, etc. This is simply nonsense. "

"Humanity has spent thousands of years evolving and improving, and tens of billions of people have died to have such a precious accumulation. You think it is expensive? It is a practice method that directly points to the realm of harmony. I think it is not expensive at all in my conscience. You If you join the Immortal Sect, how do you think you will charge for tens of thousands of copies of the true secret book? Don’t even think about it without 3000 million points!"

World Tree replied so that Zhou Huan was unable to refute.

Time passed minute by minute, Zhou Huan kept staring at Mu Mu's expression. Unfortunately, the little girl acted like an official and ignored Zhou Huan at all.

There are traps in the exchange, but the trap is not in the choice of exchange, but in the exchange itself. The girl who uses the system to open the back door for Zhou Huan must follow the principle of the system not to harm the host!

"Exchange for me the knowledge of Zhenqi breathing method, the knowledge of cold weapon masters, and the awakening of my natal magical power. I choose Goshawk for my natal magical power."

"You've decided, don't you choose something else?"

"Of course I think about it. I want to exchange hundreds of years of skill directly, and add Yitian Sword, Heavenly Silkworm Armor and a large number of loyal subordinates. The problem is that the points are not enough."

One has to choose the natal magical power. It is enough to turn into a bird and run away when in danger. Although it is good to redeem those breathing techniques to get started directly, the problem is that it is too expensive. With all the points Zhou Huan has now, it is not enough to get started. His personal combat ability can be improved to the point where one can fight ten.

But what's the use of this?Not to mention thousands of troops, even if he encounters a group of bandits, Zhou Huan will admit defeat.

A green seed fell into Zhou Huan's hand, and then slowly rose up.

"Because of the restrictions of the system mall, I wrapped the redemption items in World Tree seeds and passed them to you. Everything is as you wish."

The result of the identification in the Seed Mall of this World Tree is: a parasite produced by the will of the original planet. It exists unconsciously in its infancy. It is not a clone of Mu Mu, the World Tree. It can carry knowledge and grows extremely slowly. The original price is [-] and is currently on sale. Ten points.

Stars of light fell one after another, and Zhou Huan felt that something suddenly appeared in his mind, and his body also underwent some subtle changes, and his muscles and bones seemed to be stronger.

There are five levels of exchange for cold weapon fighting, entry, proficiency, master, grandmaster and x sage. x can be replaced by swords, guns, etc.

In those ten years, Zhou Huan learned cold weapon combat, military assassination and stick fighting, and even killed people. He was already at the entry level, so the points needed to exchange for cold weapon combat proficiency were not large, but if he chose a master, all the points would be lost. Even filling them all in is not enough.

When Zhou Huan opened his eyes, nothing seemed to have changed.

"Farewell, Zhou Huan. In this dungeon, the system will not interfere with what you do. I hope you can break free from the shackles of the system one day and become a free person."

Mu Mu's voice reached Zhou Huan's mind, and her image gradually faded away.

“Can you tell me what the pitfalls are in exchange?”

"If you can piss off the bullshit learning system, you will know it in the next copy."
