————————

The Phantom Body Divine Vein is a special talent that is not well-known, so it is within reason that Lin Yao’s father had always been unable to ascertain the specific circumstances of Lin Yao’s constitution.

In a previous life, a player had organized all the known legendary talents in "Nine Heavens" and made a detailed introductory video about them in the game.

Lu Qingshan had naturally watched it, and after doing so, he had most of the attributes of the legendary talents in "Nine Heavens" etched in his memory.

An outstanding memory was one of the reasons why Lu Qingshan managed to stand out from the many players.

In the game, he had a nickname: "The Encyclopedia of Nine Heavens."

This was also why Lu Qingshan knew so much about the Phantom Body Divine Vein.

...

The Phantom Body Divine Vein is a growth-type legendary talent.

The value of legendary talents, Lu Qingshan was naturally aware of.

Lu Qingshan knew even more that at any other point in time, it would have been utterly impossible to casually encounter a miss from the lesser-known Lin family who possessed a legendary talent, as was the case now.

However, in the game design process of "Nine Heavens," there was a very important design philosophy.

Chaotic times breed heroes.

Great Xia was about to face an unprecedented era of chaos.

This point in time should also be an era where heroes emerge in large numbers.

Therefore, the game designers significantly increased the chance that NPCs would have legendary talents.

Hence, from the Corpse Puppet Chaos version onward, NPCs of the Human Race with legendary talents would spring up endlessly.

...

Lu Qingshan did not hide anything about the abilities of the Phantom Body Divine Vein from Lin Yao, sharing all that he knew in detail with her.

Lin Yao had a faraway look in her eyes, as if lost in thought.

A moment later.

Lin Yao came back to her senses and murmured to Lu Qingshan, "Only at the Nascent Soul Realm can the Fourth Layer: Phantom Body be awakened..."

Unlike Lu Qingshan’s [Innate Swordseed], not all the talent effects of [Phantom Body Divine Vein] are activated right from the start.

The talent effects of [Phantom Body Divine Vein] will gradually unlock layer by layer as Lin Yao’s level (Cultivation) increases.

Only when the Phantom Body effect is activated, can the Phantom Body Divine Vein truly be considered a legendary talent.

To unlock the Fourth Layer: Phantom Body, one needs the Cultivation of the Nascent Soul Realm.

Nascent Soul Cultivators are few and far between even in the vast Zhenjiang Prefecture.

For Lin Yao herself to become a Nascent Soul Cultivator.

It’s very difficult!

The abilities of the Phantom Body Divine Vein are functional.

While it does offer a slight boost to Lin Yao’s combat power, it is not strong and is merely reflected in the so-called +5 to Soundwave-class Techniques skill level and +5 to Pupil Skill level.

And it offers no advantage in terms of enhancing Lin Yao’s Cultivation level.

The Phantom Body Divine Vein doesn’t provide much help for Lin Yao to become a Nascent Soul Cultivator.

Lu Qingshan said indifferently, "At your age, with just the fifth layer of Qi Refinement, you can say your cultivation talent is quite ordinary, and without external assistance, becoming a Nascent Soul Cultivator is impossible!"

Lu Qingshan had long used the Heavenly Eye Technique to investigate Lin Yao’s attributes, and knew of her current Cultivation Realm.

Lu Qingshan did not speak recklessly.

He had never heard of the name Lin Yao.

This meant that according to the original historical trajectory, Lin Yao had not become a Nascent Soul Cultivator.

Otherwise, with a fully awakened Phantom Body Divine Vein, Lin Yao could not possibly be unknown.

The fact is supposed to be like this, good talent only makes it easier for a cultivator to rise, but it does not guarantee that a cultivator will definitely grow.

There are many factors that determine the achievements of a cultivator, and talent is just one of them.

Seeing that Lin Yao did not refute, Lu Qingshan continued, "And I, can help you touch upon the Nascent Soul Realm, and even reach higher realms."

"In return, when I need you, you will have to serve me," Lu Qingshan stated bluntly.

He was not lusting after Lin Yao’s body.

In Lu Qingshan’s plan, he was definitely going to need to build his own network of influence in the future.

In a chaotic world, wanting to change some things is impossible if you are powerless and alone.

And Lin Yao, with her Legendary Talent, was undoubtedly the biggest potential stock he had come across so far.

To not try to bring her under his wing would indeed be a waste of heavenly gifts.

Lin Yao was stunned for a moment and then fell silent for a long time.

In the end, Lin Yao’s eyebrows slightly knit as she looked at Lu Qingshan’s face, shook her head, and said with a light laugh, "Young Master Lu has extended his help this time, and I am deeply moved by your kindness, but for you to think that a few words could persuade me to sell myself, I’m afraid that’s not very appropriate.

"I’m well aware of my own talent for cultivation, and even a Nascent Soul Real person would not dare guarantee that I could become a Nascent Soul.

"Although Young Master Lu’s swordsmanship is extraordinary, he is still just a Qi Refining Cultivator..."

For a cultivator to cultivate to the Nascent Soul Realm, it is determined by a combination of chance, talent, and mentality, among many other unknowns.

Lu Qingshan’s claim to help Lin Yao cultivate to the Nascent Soul seemed utterly preposterous to anyone.

You’re merely a Qi Refining Cultivator yourself, how dare you make such a bold claim?

Naturally, Lin Yao didn’t believe it either, but regardless, Lu Qingshan was her lifesaver, so Lin Yao refused very tactfully.

Lu Qingshan was also clear in his mind.

Mere verbal promises were not enough to subjugate a cultivator with Legendary Talent – such a bargain simply didn’t exist in the world.

In the game ’Nine Heavens,’ to bring a Legendary NPC’s favor to an admiring level, one would also need to complete a hundred or so continuous missions, right?

Lin Yao’s disbelief was only logical.

But Lu Qingshan was not in a hurry.

There was plenty of time, and Lin Yao couldn’t escape from his grasp.

So, for Lin Yao’s polite refusal, Lu Qingshan was not annoyed but instead agreed, "Miss Lin speaks the truth."

Lin Yao offered a charming smile, "If Young Master Lu can indeed do as he says, then wouldn’t it be fine for me to sell myself to Young Master Lu?"

Lin Yao’s meaning was simple, if Lu Qingshan could prove to her his claims, she would be willing to follow him.

Who among cultivators could resist the temptation of becoming a Nascent Soul Cultivator?

If Lu Qingshan really could assist her in cultivating to the Nascent Soul, what were his conditions in comparison?

...

Lin Yao was someone Lu Qingshan was determined to have.

If the abilities of the Phantom Body Divine Vein were used well, in some situations, it would surpass any other power!

And to bring out the abilities of the Phantom Body Divine Vein.

The foremost and most basic step was to make Lin Yao a Nascent Soul Cultivator.

Next, Lin Yao needed enough wisdom to make good use of the Phantom Body Divine Vein’s powers.

The specificity of the Phantom Body Divine Vein meant that its potential ceiling and floor were highly disparate.

It all depended on how its possessor used it.

In the world of the game ’Nine Heavens,’ there was always this saying.

There is no useless skill, only useless players.

Lu Qingshan didn’t quite agree with this saying, as it did have some truth but on the whole, it was too extreme.

But if the saying were reversed, Lu Qingshan found it quite agreeable.

There was no strongest skill, only the strongest player.

So whether the Phantom Body Divine Vein was strong or not still depended on how Lin Yao used it.

Fortunately, so far Lin Yao had made a very good impression on Lu Qingshan.
