Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 290 Designated Instructor: Divine Might Heavenly King

After trading away the Flower Token, the Dewdrop Flower Fragrance Ring, and the Twenty-Four Line Puppet Jade, Chu Danqing obtained the basic skill "Heavenly Secrets Basics".

The market price for basic skills is just that high. This stuff will never go out of style. No matter what rank you are, if you want to buy it, you'll need at least three or four pieces of the highest quality equipment of that rank to exchange for it.

The higher the rank, the more expensive it is.

And whether you can get it depends on the quality of the equipment you're given; it's not something you can just buy whenever you want.

Chu Danqing was able to purchase them thanks to the complementary effects of the two excellent-grade equipment, the Flower Order and the Dew Fragrance Ring.

As for the 24-line Puppet Jade, its active skill is strong enough; otherwise, it wouldn't even qualify as an add-on.

After changing rooms, Chu Danqing rushed back to her personal room. Xiong Zhigang had already arrived, and the three of them were talking about something.

"They're here. Let Qian Yuan learn some basic skills first, then we'll go to the training room," Chu Danqing said, handing the Heavenly Mystery Basics to Yang Qian Yuan.

During this time, Yang Qianyuan also learned from Guo Ming about the preciousness and power of this basic skill.

Without hesitation, I started learning immediately.

[It has been detected that Covenant Target #3 is attempting to learn the basic skill, Celestial Fundamentals. You may choose to pay a processing fee to complete the learning process.]

1. Handling fee: Paradise Points x 10000

2. Refuse to pay, learning failure

Chu Danqing decisively chose to pay. It seems that the Paradise Points for learning basic skills for the Covenant are constant and will not decrease with the increase of rank.

The learning process was not slow, and before long, a new skill, "Celestial Secrets Basics," appeared on Yang Qianyuan's panel.

【The Prophecy Spider】

Compared to Guo Ming and Xiong Zhigang, Yang Qianyuan's attribute panel looks very poor.

The only standout features are its dual talents and the permanent summon, the Prophecy Spider.

Of course, if we're talking about initial stats, Yang Qianyuan is already quite good.

After all, Guo Ming not only had low attributes at the beginning, but also no talents or skills.

Moreover, Yang Qianyuan possesses dual talents, so his starting point should be slightly inferior to Xiong Zhigang's.

The trial world where Xiong Zhigang is located has high comprehension among its inhabitants, and they can all master basic skills.

They can even earn their own jobs, something Yang Qianyuan can't even dream of.

As for the talent of "strategic maneuvering," it belongs to the category of political maneuvering talent, which indicates a great sensitivity to the current situation and information.

Furthermore, it can efficiently understand current affairs information and quickly identify and analyze key points.

For Yang Qianyuan, this would greatly enhance his application of divination and post-event analysis.

It might be a bit of a mismatch between the product and the description, since it's used for political purposes, but they can still be considered complementary.

"I heard from Xiong Jinglue and the others that Brother Chu needs me to expand his influence?" Yang Qianyuan asked.

“Yes, but your situation is different from Xiong Jinglue’s. They both need to work hard to achieve this,” Chu Danqing continued. “You are different; you just need to wait to inherit the position.”

Yang Qianyuan has already been chosen internally; all that's left to do is increase his own strength and the power of his forces.

There is one advantage to being away from the capital: being away from the political center allows one to do many things more confidently and boldly.

Fortunately, with Chu Danqing, Xiong Zhigang can teach him how to grow his power, and the training room is the direct way to increase his strength.

"Enough with the talk, let's go to the training room." Chu Danqing's time was truly money.

Especially Guo Ming, he's really expensive.

[S-Rank Training Room: Summoning Mastery LV.5, Summoning Spell Mastery LV.5, Command Mastery LV.5, Nurturing Mastery LV.5, Harmony Mastery LV.5, Spirit Control Mastery LV.5]

[Permanent Summoning Items: Brutal Beast - Son of the Cave (Wu Dabao), Xiangliu White Snake - Guardian Spirit (Liu Changying), Dragon Bone Heavenly Book - Extinction Poem (Sacrifice), Lotus Seed of Unity]

[Temporary Personnel: Mountain and River Alliance No. 1, 2, and 3]

[Knowledge-based items: Royal Secrets of Spirit Cultivation, Detailed Explanation of Spirit Beast Illustrated Manual, Netherworld Language, Yaksha Blood Record]

[Cultivation time for this session: 15 days; Actual consumption: 1 day; 1st-tier Apostle's remaining rest time has not exceeded; initiating the generation of an S-rank targeted summoning instructor] [Apostle selects S-rank targeted summoning instructor: Divine Might Heavenly King (Avatar)]

Chu Danqing immediately hung up all four knowledge-related items. He had already memorized their contents; all that was left was to understand them.

This requires the help of the Heavenly King, who acts as an instructor.

The goal this time is to raise the proficiency level skill to at least level 10.

He estimated that there wouldn't be any major problems.

As for Da Bao, Da Bai, and Da Gu, it depends on the situation. Inherited skills are cultivation techniques, and it's difficult to make much progress in fifteen days.

Especially when there are no corresponding knowledge-based items.

"Here we go again. Oh, you've found all the talents in the Heavenly Mystery Department." As soon as Shenwei Tianwang entered, he saw Yang Qianyuan.

As for being weak? If they were truly powerful, why would they sign a contract with Chu Danqing?

"Not bad, not bad," Chu Danqing replied. "Senior, we have limited time, let's start the class right away."

Chu Danqing didn't have time for reminiscing; he had spent 1 amusement park points and an S-level rating to get in.

The Divine King simply nodded and continued to create clones, each clone leading away one person, after which the teaching and instruction began.

Yang Qianyuan was not quite used to this, but fortunately, the Divine Might Heavenly King was a veteran and was naturally adept at appeasing people in this situation.

The Divine King also realized that Yang Qianyuan did not belong to the orthodox Tianji system, and was a novice who had not received systematic learning, so the teaching method needed to focus on building a foundation.

"You've made up for your weaknesses, but I think you still lack a personal bodyguard." The Divine Might Heavenly King glanced at Chu Danqing, and after recognizing the effect of the Lotus Seed of Unity, he spoke.

Chu Danqing asked with some doubt: "Aren't there enough Lotus Seeds of One Heart?"

"Are you sure its role is to be a personal bodyguard and not a scapegoat?" Shenwei Tianwang said with a chuckle.

"Then Da Bao should count, right?" Chu Danqing hesitated for a moment. To be honest, he didn't really want to increase the number of permanent summons anymore.

However, the Divine King said, "Da Bao is a warrior; he should be charging into battle, not protecting you."

"His bloodline is the most powerful among all your permanent summons, and he belongs to the type with a promising future."

"I don't recommend keeping him around as a bodyguard."

To Shenwei Tianwang's words, Chu Danqing helplessly shrugged: "Poor."

If he had enough Paradise Points, he could raise not only one more permanent summon, but eight or ten.

Chu Danqing doesn't drive luxury cars or live in mansions not because he doesn't want to, but because he doesn't have the money.

"This is just a suggestion. Only when you have a permanent guardian summon or other summon will you have sufficient protection." After saying this, the Divine King of Heaven got to the point.

The lesson officially began, and this time there were four knowledge-related items, among which the Royal Secret Spirit Cultivation Manual could increase the effectiveness of knowledge-related items by 100% when used in the training room.

Therefore, this time, Chu Danqing's six knowledge-based skills were improved very efficiently.

Fifteen days passed in the blink of an eye. The training was successfully completed, and the skill proficiency level was directly raised to level 10.

Chu Danqing then used six more mastery-level skill crystals to upgrade them all to level 11.

[Summoning/Summoning Spells/Nurturing/Harmony/Spirit Control/Command Mastery: LV.11]

[Skill Effect: Increases all attributes/talents, skill effects/bloodline effects/affinity tendencies/spirituality/summoning cost of summoned creatures by 22% × 4 / 22 / -22.]

Chu Danqing had 5 mastery-level skills left, which he planned to use to upgrade his skills.

Mastering a skill is itself knowledge; true mastery comes from digesting and understanding it, not just from looking at its effects.

In addition, Chu Danqing has improved a lot, but Da Bao, Da Bai, and Da Gu have grown much slower.

Among them, Da Bao's growth lies in combat because his bloodline, talent, attributes, and skills have all reached the first-tier limit.

Da Bai can only be upgraded by inheriting skills, growing from level 20 to level 23.

【Spiritual Art - Spiritual Healing (Active) LV.23: Consumes 23 points of spiritual power to instantly restore 230 points of health to the target and purify 2 negative status effects】

【灵术·灵愈（主动）LV.23：消耗33点灵力，30秒内持续恢复范围内总计330点生命值、获得130点护盾值】

【灵术·恶咒（主动）LV.23：消耗23点灵力，范围内目标全属性-2.3点、生命值恢复效果-2.3%，持续33秒，最高可迭加3层】

[Spiritual Art - Harsh Words (Active) LV.23: Consumes 33 points of spiritual power, inflicting weakness and poison status on the target for 33 seconds, stacking up to 3 times]

The Big Bone has grown the most, with increased bloodline concentration and inherited skills, but this is also due to its relatively late entry into the fold.

Bloodline

【The Art of Chasing Fire (Bloodline Concentration: 4%)】

[Effect 1: Each rune's maximum value is treated as 40 points of attack power]

[Effect 2: Contract recovery efficiency +4%]

【Skill】

【悲回风（主动）LV.17：消耗1枚契文，对（感知×1）米内的目标造成1次（精神×270）点锁定性追踪法术伤害，命中敌人后造成（精神×27）点范围伤害，冷却55秒】

The good news is that the cooldown of Sorrowful Wind has finally decreased by 5 seconds after reaching level 10.

There should be room for the level to drop further after level 20.

Currently, Da Bai only has inherited skills left to reach the first rank limit, while Da Gu has both bloodline and inherited skills. Chu Danqing is confident that he can max them out before advancing to the next rank.

In terms of attributes, thanks to the previous trial, they are all maxed out.

As for the Lotus Seed of Unity, Chu Danqing had already ignored it. He could treat it as a pendant for now and didn't need to pay attention to it.
