Something’s Wrong with This Game — I Became a God by Mining!

“Out of the 3,200 health points, 200 came from the Eighth-Rank Ironclad Armor’s amplification, which means my base HP has already reached 3,000!”

“Every one point of Strength increases HP by 10 points, so that’s equivalent to me gaining 300 Strength!”

“The thickness of my HP now might not be any less than those boss-level creatures…”

Yang Ling sucked in a sharp breath, then glanced at his Vital Qi.

“My Vital Qi tripled, huh. This Vital Qi will be extremely useful for both offense and defense. From now on, using many skills will probably consume Vital Qi.”

“One Ice Blade costs 3 points of Vital Qi, and the Vajra Indestructible Body also needs Vital Qi to sustain it.”

“This attribute likely has an undeniable link to higher ranks.”

A thrill of joy ran through Yang Ling.

He suspected Vital Qi was probably another criterion for judging a martial artist’s strength.

He was still Seventh Rank now, yet his Vital Qi was already far stronger than others at his tier.

“I wonder how much Vital Qi Director Yun and the others have. Too bad the Status Panel doesn’t show numerical values.”

“Maybe Zhao State has a unique method for testing Vital Qi depth?”

Thinking that, Yang Ling refocused on his internal techniques and martial arts.

The warm current in his body remained vigorous, showing no sign of fading.

That meant HP and Vital Qi had reached their temporary cap, but everything else was far from peak.

Unconsciously, about an hour had passed since he took the Water Bodhi seed.

The Divine Ape Contemplation Diagram’s experience had risen from 4,870 to 8,470!

“Almost there, the Divine Ape Contemplation Diagram is about to reach Flawless Proficiency. When it does, it’ll grant me 40 Spirit!”

Every cell in Yang Ling’s body pulsed with intense excitement.

He hadn’t expected the Water Bodhi seed to keep working steadily for a full hour with no decline.

If this continued, in less than half an hour the diagram would level up!

Just then, a new message popped up before his eyes:

「Congratulations, you have leveled up and gained 1 Free Attribute Point」

“Leveled up!”

A trace of delight flashed across Yang Ling’s eyes.

He had risen from Level 45 to Level 46!

“The level boost from the Water Bodhi seed surely won’t stop at one level. Could I possibly reach Level 50 this time and get another treasure chest!?”

At the thought, Yang Ling’s toes trembled with excitement.

“Isn’t that Brother Yang!?”

Not far away, Zhang Shendao and the others saw Yang Ling and waved in surprise.

“Brother Yang!”

Yang Ling didn’t hear them at all, and in a blink he vanished from their sight.

“…”

Mian Zhengdong pondered, “Chief Constable Yang ran off so fast, there might be danger behind him. We should pick up the pace and get out of here!”

Li Shou and the others heard that and, without another word, quickened their steps.

……

Half an hour later, the system displayed another message.

「Congratulations, the Divine Ape Contemplation Diagram has reached Flawless Proficiency」

【Flawless Proficiency: Gain 40 Spirit】

Yang Ling’s body shook!

It had leveled up!

A torrent of energy surged into the center of Yang Ling’s brow, making him feel briefly dizzy.

When the dizziness subsided, his Spirit had skyrocketed from 120 to 160!

At that moment, Yang Ling could even sense the faint sound of snowflakes hitting the ground a hundred meters away!

“In just over an hour my Spirit went from 90 to 160…”

A wave of emotion unexpectedly rose in Yang Ling’s chest.

The Water Bodhi seed lived up to its reputation; being called one of the Twelve Sacred Martial Medicines made sense.

Now the Heavenly Will True Scripture’s experience had also climbed back above four thousand points, so it wasn’t far from reaching Flawless Proficiency either.

“If Heavenly Will True Scripture levels to Flawless Proficiency, my Spirit will jump from 160 to 200!”

“Two hundred Spirit! That would crush every expert I’ve seen, even Xu Wuji near the Fourth Prince.”

Yang Ling remembered Xu Wuji’s attribute points were very high, with Agility up to 191!

Although Spirit wasn’t as directly impactful in combat as Agility,

Spirit points were actually far rarer than Agility!

“Would Spirit be counted toward one’s martial rank?”

“It shouldn’t. Lu Yunchen’s Strength exceeding a hundred already qualifies him as a Sixth-Rank expert. My Spirit has been over a hundred for a while; if Spirit counted for rank, the Water Qilin would have awakened long ago.”

Yang Ling concentrated, sensing the surroundings.

Everything remained exactly as before, without any change, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Luckily both internal techniques had boosted Spirit.

If it had been Agility that increased, he might have had to face the Water Qilin’s wrath directly.

At the same time, the Vajra Bright King Technique’s experience had already surpassed ten thousand.

But it was still far from the 100,000 mark, so it wouldn’t level up anytime soon.

Time slipped by.

Yang Ling continued hurrying toward the exit.

The warm current inside him still showed no sign of waning.

The Status Panel’s numbers kept flickering upward.

Another half hour passed.

A new message appeared again:

「Congratulations, you have leveled up and gained 1 Free Attribute Point」

Yang Ling felt a small surge of joy, though it wasn’t as overwhelming as before.

He remained calm and kept moving.

About another hour later, the warm current inside him suddenly vanished without a trace.

Just as it had surged fiercely when it came, it dissipated in an instant when it left.

The moment it disappeared, two messages appeared before Yang Ling:

「Congratulations, you have leveled up and gained 1 Free Attribute Point」

「Congratulations, you have received 30 Free Attribute Points」

Yang Ling was stunned for a moment, then erupted with ecstatic joy.

Although Heavenly Will True Scripture hadn’t reached Flawless Proficiency — it was just a bit short on experience —

the Water Bodhi seed had ultimately rewarded him with 30 Free Attribute Points!

His expectations had not been in vain!

“The Water Bodhi seed’s effect lasted three hours.”

“During these three hours it raised me by three levels.”

“Vajra Bright King Technique, Divine Ape Contemplation Diagram, and Heavenly Will True Scripture each gained 10,800 experience!”

“Boulder Crushing Fist, Tiger-Capturing Saber Technique, Ethereal Steps, and Twelve Paths Vajra Legs each gained 10,800 proficiency!”

“Vital Qi tripled, to 1,500 points!”

“HP reached a whopping 3,200…”

Yang Ling’s heart pounded wildly; this increase had been enormous!

He focused on the Status Panel:
