Using entries to cultivate immortality in chaotic times-Chapter 699 - 239: Entry Name: "Carrying Hammer Ant". _3

Well, that's a relief.

Though I forgot, I didn't lose much after all, the rewards from that prize pool were a bit hit-or-miss.

Um... I'll remember next time.

"What about another 'Divine Hand' Purple Entry?"

Chen Qiu mumbled to himself idly, if he got this entry again, he would have the chance to combine it into another Supreme Entry select-from-three when he broke through to the seventh, eighth, and ninth layers of Void Refining.

That would be simply perfect.

Once again, he could choose a Supreme Entry that perfectly fit him.

But...

He shook his head and chuckled self-deprecatingly, that would be too outrageous. If it really happened again, would he start to wonder if he was actually cheating somehow? He had already come upon the 'Divine Hand' entry twice in a row; it couldn't possibly come a third time, could it?

Even three times in succession—although this entry doesn't have any effect on combat power, it's the best supporting entry. Of course, that's for him. For others, the effect might not be as good.

After all, every time he broke through a small realm, he got a chance to choose from three entries. Others only got such a chance when they broke through a Great Realm. Choosing this entry was almost equivalent to forfeiting a select-from-three chance.

Whether it was a loss or a gain, it's hard to say.

Afterward, he shook his head, put these thoughts aside, and looked up at the panel wrapped in clouds and mist above his Dantian to see what entry he randomly got this time.

-

"Cultivation greatly increased, officially stepping into the sixth layer of Void Refining."

"Please make a choice from the following three random entries within a hundred breaths."

"Entry Name": Carrying Hammer Ant.

"Entry Level": Purple.

"Entry Effect": You will summon an ant that absolutely will not die, definitely cannot be destroyed, absolutely obeys your command, with a Qi Refining Cultivation, and carrying a small hammer as per your command. When you summon this ant, it will continuously fly towards the enemy at a very high speed, and it will ignore any shackles, restrictions, or Formations; climbing on the enemy's body, it will start hammering the enemy's head with the small hammer until the enemy dies.

2:

"Entry Name": Guaranteed Hit.

"Entry Level": Purple.

"Entry Effect": The speed of all the spells you cast will be reduced by 99%, but as long as the target is locked by your Divine Sense, your spells will definitely hit the enemy and ignore all Formations, shackles, etc.

3:

"Entry Name": Wedding Night.

"Entry Level": Purple.

"Entry Effect": You need to have the 'Nine Ox Power' with a female body, or 'Bull Strength' with a male body. Then, you can Dual Cultivate with yourself, and through Dual Cultivation, you will gain a three-fold increase in your cultivation progress. If you have both 'Nine Ox Power' and 'Bull Strength',

then when you Dual Cultivate with yourself, you will achieve a twenty-seven-fold increase in your cultivation progress.

These three entries are what he got for breaking through to the sixth layer of Void Refining.

"Hmm..."

Chen Qiu frowned slightly. Sure enough, without that kind of 'Divine Hand' entry, these bizarre and ghastly entries popped up again. He could somewhat understand the pain of most cultivators.

After finally breaking through a Great Realm, one looks forward to the select-from-three entry that comes with it, only to get some bizarre, ghostly entries. As a result, one has to grit one's teeth and choose one that fits best, and also figure out how to match this entry with others to form a set.

It's a bit of a struggle.

It's not so bad for him, having the Seven-colored 'Step by Step' term. Even if the entries from some random selection are not good, he could just wait for the next opportunity. Other people might find it tougher; such a wait could last decades or even hundreds of years.

Firstly, the first entry.

"Carrying Hammer Ant."

That's a full seven characters, the most for any entry name I've encountered, and quite direct too.

He hadn't expected that the effect of a Purple Entry would be to summon an ant with only Qi Refining Cultivation. While the ant absolutely cannot die, which sounds cool, it doesn't hide the fact that it's merely at the Qi Refining Cultivation level.

Even if it catches up to the enemy while carrying a hammer, what's the use? Forget about someone who has reached Divinity Transformation; even a Nascent Soul wouldn't be harmed by the ant, even if it hammered away for a hundred years.

It can't break through their defenses at all.

The only effect seemed to be to make the Nascent Soul irritable, unable to cultivate peacefully. Anyone would feel annoyed cultivating while an ant was hammering on their head.

Which means...

This entry is meant to annoy others, especially in the later stages when everyone is reaching the Mahayana stage or even the Immortal Emperor level, where one seclusion could last thousands or tens of thousands of years. During those years, having an ant continuously hammering on your head, how irritating it would be let alone how it would look upon emerging from seclusion. It's indelicate to say the least, and since it ignores all shackles, restrictions, and Formations, there's no escaping it.

Perhaps that's why this entry is Purple—to signal it's rarity, even if he couldn't see any great combo potential with other entries.

Forget it!

He would never choose this entry, it's just terrible.

The second entry "Guaranteed Hit" is a spell entry; its advantages and drawbacks are clear.
