After a little bit of time, Lin Wu calmed himself down and figured out the differences in his organic form. His sense of taste was definitely back after he switched to this one, and luckily it didn't make him feel bad about eating soil. His worm-like taste preferences were still there.

'Okay, now that I know this works, I should just go to the next objective. Ugh, let's switch quickly to the crystal form.' Lin Wu thought to himself.

He then willed it and the innate skill was triggered, making his body change back into a crystalline form. A minute later he was back to looking like a beautiful sculpture.

Lin Wu posed in different styles and looked at his image in the Host data window.

"Now this is good. I'm beautiful this way." Lin Wu muttered to himself.

Lin Wu brought up the map window and looked at where his next quest objective was and found it to be to the northwest of his current location. He elevated his head and tried to look towards its general direction but could not find anything peculiar.

'I need to get closer…' Lin Wu thought before starting to move towards it.

Five minutes later, Lin Wu was standing over the quest marker that was being shown by the map. But the thing that was bothering him was that the object in question was a piece of cloth. Or more accurately, a piece of female clothing. Lin Wu could tell this because of its peculiar shape.

"What? Why is modern style clothing here? Is this really a cultivation world? Or has it perhaps developed in a direction that the clothing is similar to modern style?" Lin Wu thought out loud.

"System, scan the object… Umm… the underwear." Lin Wu ordered.

TARGET: Pink Women's underwear

This story has been stolen from Royal Road. If you read it on Amazon, please report it

INFO: The underwear is made from hundred year summer silkworm silk and is quite a precious material. Hundred year summer silkworm silk can be used to make high grade spirit clothing, which can defend from qi techniques. A small amount of hundred year summer silkworm silk is worth about twenty mid grade spirit stones.

CURRENT STATUS: Used.

COMPOSITION: Hundred year summer silkworm silk, lilac blossom dye.

FORMATIONS: Basic protective formation and temperature regulation formation present.

"Uhhhh… What?" Lin Wu uttered, feeling dumbfounded.

Lin Wu could not help but feel bewildered at this finding. It seemed to him that whoever was the owner of this garment was probably rather rich and liked to splurge. Although Lin Wu didn't know what twenty mid grade spirit stones were worth, he could guess that that was probably a lot.

'Making underwear from material that can be used as Armour, really? How opulent are the people here…' Lin Wu thought to himself.

"System, how much are twenty mid grade spirit stones worth?" Lin Wu questioned.

~Ding~

—————————————————————————————————

ANSWER: A single mid grade spirit stone is worth a hundred low grade spirit stones, hence twenty mid grade spirit stones are worth two thousand low grade spirit stones. For reference, a single low grade spirit stone is enough to provide the user with ten wisps of spirit qi units.

—————————————————————————————————

"Huh, so ten wisps of spirit qi units are equal to one low grade spirit stone. Then that means… WHAT THE HELL! Twenty thousand spirit qi units! That is more than all I have used until now." Lin Wu exclaimed upon finding out the reality.

Suddenly an idea appeared in Lin Wu's mind, and he wondered if it could be viable.

"Umm… System, if I consume the underwear, will I get the spirit qi from it?" Lin Wu questioned in a storage tone.

~Ding~

—————————————————————————————————

ANSWER: No, the underwear itself does not have any spirit qi stored in it. The formations placed on its work by using the spirit qi of the user itself. The Host will have no benefit from consuming the object in question, but the system can analyze the formations placed on it.

—————————————————————————————————

"Okay, I got excited for nothing." Lin Wu spoke to himself.

"System, store the underwear in inventory." Lin Wu ordered and the underwear lying on the ground disappeared and a new entry was added to the inventory window.

Lin Wu then looked at the map again and saw that the next objective was in the completely opposite direction that was to the east. He was currently in the West and needed to go back to the place he had gotten the skeleton at and go beyond it to reach his next objective.

'Alright, let's get to it.' Lin Wu thought to himself.

Ten minutes passed and Lin Wu quickly arrived at the next objective. At first, Lin Wu was a little confused as the quest objective could not be seen anywhere as all that was in front of him was a large rock that was about ten meters tall.

'Is the quest objective above or below the rock, perhaps?' Lin Wu to himself before comparing it with what the navigation was showing him.

He checked it thrice, but the pointer was directly pointing it towards the rock itself, not up or down. Lin Wu went closer and saw that it was indeed the rock itself that was the objective.

"System, is this rock the objective?" Lin Wu questioned.

~Ding~

—————————————————————————————————

ANSWER: The quest objective is contained within the rock. The system cannot scan the quest objective clearly as it is being shielded by the rock. The rock's composition has substances that can block the emission of spirit qi. The system recommends using the host's innate skills to reach the quest objective.

—————————————————————————————————

Lin Wu was a bit surprised after seeing this and wondered if there was anything good hidden in the rock. He wanted to get right to it, but decided to check a little bit first. He went around the rock and first found the place that was the thinnest.

Lin Wu then triggered the innate skill of cellular crystallization and changed the shape of his tail into one that was sharp like a pickaxe.

"Alright mining time…"
