System Of Gods And Devils - Chapter 51
Lisa released her 15 years pent-up emotions in 15 minutes. Roger asked her to take rest and to prepare early for departure. She nodded and left in a good mood.
Roger then came back to his room and started cultivating. He took a hand full of high-grade spirit stones and begun refining into Yin-Yang Qi.
A high-grade spirit stone is considered rare in the whole dracos planet and mined in low amounts. A high-grade spirit stone is mainly used for attacking a bottleneck in cultivation. But here Roger is treating high-grade spirit stones as a cabbage. Even for a sovereign realm expert, a hand full of high-grade spirit stones is enough to attack the lower stages. That is why he was treated as a wealthy young master in the port city where he found Liliana.
Roger released a mouth full of air filled with Qi.
“Fuu…! Finally reached Peak core formation stage but the bottleneck for the meridian opening stage is too far.” Roger thought.
“You can’t have smooth breakthrough every time just by meditating. You need fighting experience to reach the next stage. Otherwise, it will take at least six months to reach the meridian opening stage.” Kanna commented from the sidelines.
Mia sat on the bed munching her favorite snack. She looked like a cute little hamster; Roger had an urge to pinch her cheeks. But Kanna’s daggering eyes stopped him from doing so.
“Kanna why couldn’t I find the Spirit Nectar you need from the store?” Roger asked after remembering the topic about the Eternal tomb.
“Now you are in the first stage of the Yin-Yang System! The system has stopped itself from reaching the second level because of your low mental state. It will upgrade itself after you reach the Sovereign stage.” Kanna replied.
“As for the spirit nectar belong to a grade above which you can use now! Or it simply cannot be bought using contribution points!” She added.
“I don’t understand! So you’re saying that I cannot buy the spirit nectar using the contribution points?” Roger asked.
“Yes! After you reach the second stage in the system, it will unlock the Karma Point system just like it unlocked the contribution points system.” She replied.
“So I have to reach the sovereign stage to acquire the spirit nectar you need, correct?” he asked.
“It’s not so simple as it sounds! Acquiring Karma points is more complicated than you think! Even we don’t know fully how it works! I’ll explain what I know!”
*nod*
“For example, You saved a group of people from certain danger but rather than acquiring Karma points; it will result in negative karma points.”
“What? Why?” Roger asked in shock.
“As I said you saved a group of people, but you don’t know whether they are good are bad! The heavens might have wanted to punish them, but you saved them. It will result in negative karma points. But the thing is you need to acquire double the amount of positive Karma points to erase the negative karma points. So it will hard to earn Karma points in the future, and that’s not all. If you saved a thousand good people, you might only earn a single Karma points. Whereas the Spirit nectar might be priced near thousand Karma points.” Kanna explained.
“Roger felt like his head spinning after hearing her explanation. Now he knows why Kanna was against using his vital essence in saving Lily.”
“First of all finding a good person is very hard, and at the top of that, he needs to save at least a million good souls to earn the points. Is that even possible? Looks like the second stage of the system going be a pain in the ass.” Roger scratched his head in frustration.

After finishing the cultivation, Roger made a trip to see Tina.
The dimension didn’t have the function to interchange day and night. It maintained the optimum daylight all around. It would be a problem for mortals without cultivation, but for cultivators, it was a holy land for training. The air was fresh, and the temperature was perfect, a cultivator couldn’t ask for more.
He looked at the children who are improving at a faster rate with the help of Kronan. He already left necessary resources with Kronan to assist them during a bottleneck. He even left a mini version of the medicine bath for a stronger foundation which makes easier for them to attack the Immortal realm in the future. Even though the medicinal properties wasn’t good as the one he used, they should be more than enough for them.
Expect for Tina everyone started their medicinal bath; she has to wait for another two years to begin her training.
He looked at Tina sitting near Lily with a pout and dried tear marks on her face. Lily had a stern look on the face while teaching her the book in front of her. Kronan had a happy smile on his face like he was satisfied with something. Roger thought it was funny when Kronan makes a smirk whenever Tina looks at him. But surprisingly, Tina didn’t get angry. She looked like she was planning for something.
Roger was happy to see that two are getting along fine. He walked near the training grounds catching the attention of everyone.
Tina saw Roger and dashed towards him, “Wuuuuuu…. Big Brother! Everyone is bullying me!” and cried loudly.
Even though he knew she was overacting, he still lifted her and consoled her.
He pecked her on the cheeks, “Tina! Don’t cry! Big brother will treat you candies after you finished your studies, okay?”
*nod* *nod*
Roger then looked at Lily, she sat on the ground gracefully looking at him. Looking at her Roger thought that she’s getting more beautiful day by day.
Kanna previously explained that the vital yang seems to have left over after curing her body and kept nourishing her body every day.
Lily noticed his presence the moment he stepped on the dimension. But she kept waiting until he reached her.
Noticing his stare, she put her head down shyly. The children started giggling looked at her shy face.
“Lily, are you bored staying inside the dimension?” Roger asked her.
“No! Actually, I am happy to spend time with them.” Lily replied. Roger was happy to hear that she got accustomed to the surroundings.
Roger and Lily chatted as they walked through the woods. Roger already left Tina in her room and asked the children to take rest.
Roger talked about his plan to visit the Silver Immortal fox tribe with her. Lily was worried at first, but she got assured when she heard that Great Elder is going to accompany him. She felt the dimension would become lively after the Silver Immortal Fox tribe gets settled here. Previously she was worried that the children might be lonely living here, but now her worries were gone. She couldn’t wait to meet Lisa’s tribe people.
Slowly they reached a Lake covered by woods. Lily’s face got red knowing they were alone in the woods. Her looks enchanted Roger, and the blush made it more attractive. Roger slowly reached his hands and grabbed her shoulders.
