Chapter 20: Minor Accomplishment
Weight: Cursed seed
Status: Contamination
Value: 91
Introduction: ······
"Sure enough, it's approaching the value points of innate cultivation. No wonder it was so troublesome to deal with"
Looking at the blood-red weight of 91 points, Wang Zijia confirmed that he hadn't misperceived, then immediately exchanged it for the value of talisman making.

After observing the progress that surged once again, Wang Zijia exited his sea of consciousness, picked up his dagger, and disappeared in a flash.
It's a long story, but from Wang Zijia's appearance to disappearance, it only took a moment, less than half a minute.
"Tap, tap…"
As soon as he disappeared, the pursuers behind him arrived. Looking at the body on the ground, they exclaimed in surprise, "Dead?"
"Hmm,it is hastily purified!"
"So, the report from Team Seven is true? Someone powerful is helping?"
"No, it's not purification, it's absorbing the contamination!"
"Huh?"
"Huh?"
"Are there other evil cultivators in the city who dare to directly absorb contamination?"
"Report it quickly!"
"Damn, it's been almost a day, why haven't there been any movements from the inner sect's branches? Are they all just idling around?"
······
Wang Zijia stealthily left again, running all the way.
Practice makes perfect, and he felt himself getting better and gaining experience. He plunged into some dark alleys where ordinary people lived. As the contamination had persisted for a day. Those who were openly frenzied or had immediately gone insane yesterday had mostly been dealt with.
Now, most of those left were contaminated but not completely insane. Just like his crazy state yesterday, something was completely wrong but they were unaware of it, at the same time they know how to avoid danger.
And this semi-latent state was likely to be overlooked at places where these ordinary people lived.
Moments later, Wang Zijia killed another madman and luckily found a corpse from the enforcement team, gaining a total of 145 points.
As the weight was exchanged for skill value, Wang Zijia's talisman card making technique once again made significant progress, reaching minor accomplishment.

However, reaching the value threshold for mastery required five hundred more points, and the success rate would only increased by a little over ten percent. Therefore, Wang Zijia hesitated for a moment and decided to focus on accumulating cultivation.
Although accumulating thousands of years of internal energy seemed unreliable, the power gained through exchange could later be converted into cultivation as a cultivator, so it didn't matter much.
With this decision made, Wang Zijia began searching again.
Once again drawn to a battle, Wang Zijia silently approached.
As he got closer, his internal energy became unusually active again. As he continued to absorb contamination and exchange for purification, he found that his perception of these curse seeds became sharper, like a radar, as if addicted.
But what made Wang Zijia change color was that this time, before he could even approach, the monster in the battle moved towards him as if mistaking his mutated energy for its own kind!
"This is… a contaminated seed at the cultivator level, and it's not a low-level one, at least intermediate, maybe even late Childe realm cultivation? Has such an existence also been completely contaminated?"
After sensing the fluctuations in the battle, Wang Zijia's face changed drastically, and without another word, he turned and ran!
"Roar!"
With his movement, a few streets away, the demon being besieged let out a roar of urgency, seeming to want to call Wang Zijia for help!
This guy, actually contaminated but still maintained his sanity!
At least, he still retains his own rationality!
Unfortunately, Wang Zijia didn't understand what the roar meant, nor did he have time to care, so he ran frantically.
After circling around for a while, Wang Zijia went straight home.
It was already early in the morning, not long before dawn, so he decided not to wander anymore. Also, the encounter just now had frightened him a bit.
The harvest of hundreds of value points in one night made him a little complacent.
Cultivation: Innate
Martial Art: Shadow Submersion
Technique: Nineteen Dagger Strikes of the Roaming Dragon
Spell: Talisman Card Crafting Technique(Minor accomplishment 516/1000)
Lying on the bed, looking at the suddenly minor accomplished talisman card making, Wang Zijia's face was full of excitement.
A minor accomplishment technique,has an eighty percent success rate.
Ten pieces of spiritual materials for one spirit coin, breaking even with five talisman cards, earning a profit of three cards, a 60% return on investment. Such a business deal is definitely worth doing!
The income from the money bag depends on it!
··········
He slept for three hours and it was already dawn. Wang Zijia didn't get up early today.
It was almost time for work, so he got up, had breakfast, and went to work.
He still worked as a receptionist in the front hall. Today, there were more customers, but most of them were in a hurry.
Wang Zijia slacked off until it was time to finish work, then went home, had dinner, and spent the rest of the evening practicing various skills at home.
After so many days, most of the skills had been tested by him.
Surprisingly, the skill that increased in value the fastest during practice was not a technique, but the Tai Chi Fist from his past life!!! It seemed that because it was a skill from another world, its value increased even faster than the techniques of this world when practiced alone! Well, at least that's what he tested.
For example, the one hundred and eight styles of close combat techniques hadn't had a chance to be tested yet.
Therefore, he spent his free time practicing tai chi. Although he suddenly gained hundreds of value points, the daily accumulation of practice was also not a small income!
He practiced until around eight or nine o'clock in the evening, when the sky darkened and the lights came on, Wang Zijia felt it was about time to stop, so he stopped.
He put on a black robe, took out the prepared straw hat, took out 32 talisman cards from the secret room, quietly went out, and headed towards the outskirts of the city.
Arriving in the area near the city wall, most of it was a cluster of low, tiled houses, where most ordinary people lived, it is considered as the slums of the city.
This slum was relative, after all, they used gold and silver in their daily lives, with hardly any copper coins.
If they were to sell their houses and leave here to mingle with the secular world, they would easily become small wealthy individuals in minutes!
In the immortal city, there were countless people like this!
Wang Zijia crossed through the streets, turned into an inconspicuous liquor store, and went to the back door, wearing a black straw hat.
"Bang, bang… Bang, bang…"
Following a unique rhythm, he began to knock.
"No alcohol today!" After a while, an old voice sounded from the courtyard.
"Then, how do we pass this long night?" Wang Zijia responded.
Immediately afterward, there was a moment of silence around the area.
"Creak!"
The back door was pushed open, revealing an old man who looked seventy or eighty years old, with one foot already in the grave.
He glanced at Wang Zijia and without a word, turned and walked away. Wang Zijia followed quietly.
The two passed through the backyard, entered the house through the side, and then walked through several rooms.
It seemed like they went directly from the house into another courtyard, passing through several rooms in a row. Suddenly, an entrance to a cellar appeared in front of them, and the old man stepped in. Wang Zijia followed closely.
