What to do if you find out that you are a cannon fodder in a cultivation novel?

Chapter 66: Divine item?



How could he be faster than me with his level? By the time I joined him, he already found his mother and was asking for permission. Aunt Sun was with grandma Li learning a few recipes Li-er liked

“Xiao Shin, you have a tool to identify people?” asked aunt Sun

“No…I don’t know, I only used it before to identify objects and poison components” … and map spiritual veins

“Don’t ever give it to others. Better not show it to people you do not trust” warned aunt Sun

We went to my bedroom and she said “Try it on me first, if I am satisfied we can check LiLi”

Aunt Sun was concerned about her and Li-er’s health or was she trying to find out something? 

“But first please make an isolation array. I cannot use my spiritual power yet” she added. My array was only level 2 but it was better than nothing. I also activated an isolation talisman to be safe.

It took a while but it was the first time I saw a long display on the analyzer: 

76 year old human female. ERROR. Damaged water root. Dark poison 643/700. Neck’s trauma. Trauma on the right hand. Trauma on the left hand. Bruise on belly. Bruise on the left thigh. Bruise on the left leg. Skin trauma on the left foot. Skin trauma on the right foot. Skin trauma on the left knee. Skin trauma on the right knee  

Recommendation;

Urgent - purify dark poison, fix water root. 

Medium - fix trauma. 

Low -  remove bruises

 

Wow. Just Wow. My analyzer was amazing! I wondered who took it in my first life? But there were more urgent concerns. 

“Aunty Sun, you are in bad shape. I don’t know what that dark poison is and the numbers attached to it… When I checked myself, it gave me my cultivation level at the place of that ERROR. It could be because of the damaged root. For the rest, a health pill should help, I have a few with me” I said while I took out some pills

“The pills won’t work until the dark poison is removed. This is why I had to run away to protect LiLi. But it was too late, they had already poisoned him” She said while holding her son 

“Mummy, are you hurt badly?” asked Li-er with tears

“I am getting better LiLi” then she looked at me “That number 643 is because I can slowly remove the poison while meditating. I could not do it for 3 years but I was able to remove some before getting imprisoned. That number is good, it gives me hope that I could get better as long as I work hard” She said with a smile

“It said purify dark poison. Did you remove it the same way you remove impurities from spiritual energy?” I asked

“Mmmm. Somehow similar but it is harder than that” she replied

I looked at Li-er. He was smart and understood my look right away “I can help!” He said then he took out the Buddha necklace.

“This is an item purifying spiritual energy. Li-er already used it once. We could try it on you to check if it would work” I explained

“So this is why the healer said that LiLi’s spiritual energy was very pure” concluded aunt Sun

“This is… a divine artifact just like your analyzer!” 

Wait. What!? My analyzer was a divine item! 

“Yes it is” said Li-er proudly 

“My analyzer is a divine artifact?” I asked stupidly

“Mmm. At least a divine level. Maybe more” There was something more than divine level? How did I not know? 

While Li-er was explaining to his mother how to activate it, I was remembering how many people knew that I had it. 

Way too many. 

I really need to stop using it in front of others. It also showed that aunt Sun was more knowledgeable than expected

“If it works, it might be long and painful, Aunty Sun. It is better if we do it at night so no one knows” I suggested

“You are right. We will need you to set up an array to be safe” My array making was too low in this residence but I had some more talismans that could do the job.

“Now it is Li-er’s turn”. I said while looking at aunt Sun to get her approval. She nodded

The analyzer took as long as aunt Sun’s but his health was way better:

14 (7) year old human male. Effective 5th level of Qi condensation. Wind and water roots. heavenly body constitution. Half-power curse. Amnesia. Malnourished

Recommendation:

Medium - Remove curse. Healthy diet

There are so many questions that I was not sure which one I should start with.

“Li-er, you are 14!” 

“I am 7” he corrected

“LiLi you are 14 years old now but the curse made you forget it and lowered your strength and body age by more than half” Confirmed aunt Sun. 

“I was concerned that you had the same poison as me but then again you used the purifying necklace so maybe it was removed” 

“This is why it says effective 5th level of Qi Condensation. By the way, good job increasing it to level 5th, Li-er” He was level 4 a few days ago

“How about that Heavenly body constitution? It sounds amazing” I asked

“My LiLi is a genius in cultivation. With his constitution, he cannot be injured easily and even poison works only half way, this is why his cultivation level increased in a few days after purification. Also, he can get rid of the curse naturally as long as he could break through the foundation establishment again. Without his constitution, we would need to find who cursed him and made them remove it or kill them” said aunt Sun proudly. Li-er was as red as a tomato with all the praises

“So the amnesia is because of the curse too…Ah and this is why the Siren plant did not affect him!” I stated. His body constitution was so good that I felt a bit envious. The curse was even considered as a medium problem and not an urgent one.
