After being fussed with by Zhou Bai for a while, Christina bristled: "Have you had enough yet? Do you know what you're doing?"
Zhou Bai: "Petting a cat."
"Pet yourself!" Christina snapped, "Cats don't need petting."
"Oh." Zhou Bai quickly asked, "Can we use the auxiliary system now? Or is there another step?"
Christina pursed her lips, swung her tail, and jumped onto Zhou Bai's shoulder, then gave three hard pats on the back of his head.
"Try it again?"
"Really? Does that work?" Zhou Bai doubted, "You're not messing with me, are you?"
"The manual says so, but it has to be me patting you. It won't work if you do it." Christina said, "Believe it or not."
Zhou Bai scratched his chin, decided to ignore it for now, and lay down again.
As he lay back on the bed, this time the lazy value on the auxiliary system finally started increasing. Watching the lazy value go up by 1 point per second, Zhou Bai's mood, which had been gloomy due to the post-apocalyptic environment, suddenly improved.
Satisfied with the constant increase in lazy value, Zhou Bai glanced at the cat lying on the bed and smiled, then kicked Christina off the bed.
"No cats on my bed."
"Hiss..." Christina glared furiously at Zhou Bai lying on the bed, "I only look like a cat. In essence, I'm far superior to cats and you humans."
'There's not a word of truth coming from this cat's mouth. Good thing she's dumb enough.' Zhou Bai paid no mind, dismissing Christina's bragging. However, since the auxiliary system came with her, he still had many questions for her.
The first was about this world. Zhou Bai was very eager to understand if this world was his world.
Was this post-apocalyptic world an Otherworld, or had his original Earth entered the apocalypse?
But Christina really seemed to have lost her memory and knew nothing about this world.
After asking around and getting no answers, Zhou Bai started asking about the auxiliary system.
Christina: "Don't ask me. The manual I got only says... If something goes wrong, pat your head."
Zhou Bai: "Huh? What's this Taohuadu, Primordial Spirit value, and Divine Skills all about? Explain it to me."
Christina: "This I do know." She waved her tail, dissatisfied, "But the floor is so cold..."
Zhou Bai used a bit of his Primordial Spirit power to toss Christina onto Elsa's bed. Elsa was still snoring, completely unaware. Christina rolled around comfortably, turning into a cat blanket.
Zhou Bai: "Tell me, what's this Taohuadu, Primordial Spirit value, and Divine Skills all about."
Previously, when Zhou Bai first used the auxiliary system, Christina had already mentioned that Taohuadu represents the realm, and Divine Skills represent the cultivation methods.
"To explain in detail, Taohuadu represents your synchronization rate with the Heavenly Dao. The higher the synchronization, the greater the power you can obtain, and the stronger the Divine Skills you can cultivate."
"You should already understand Primordial Spirit value to some extent. It's a numerical representation of Primordial Spirit power, the power developed by cultivators who inhale the spiritual essence and merge with the sky. In deep cultivation, its miraculous uses are limitless. It's the basic power for cultivators."
"Divine Skills are cultivation methods, similar to some secret manuals or Divine Skills. Different realms have different Divine Skills, leading to different enhancements and supernatural abilities. These are the tools for combat."
Christina smiled: "Want to learn how to cultivate? I can teach you." She thought to herself: 'Heh, if you want to learn, I'll slowly make you see me as your teacher and gradually regain my control...'
"Not interested." Zhou Bai turned away, noticing his lazy value had surpassed 100 points, happily said, "Getting stronger by lying down, only a fool would cultivate."
Christina grit her teeth, revealing her tiger fangs, "This guy... I'm so pissed off!" The next moment, she turned into a white mist and was reabsorbed into Zhou Bai's consciousness.
On the other side, Zhou Bai lay on the bed for a while. Because he was too exhausted today, he drifted off to sleep.
The next morning, Zhou Bai woke up early, extremely excited, his mind full of anticipation about how much lazy value had accumulated overnight.
But when he checked the panel, a look of disappointment appeared on his face.
Taohuadu: 0%
Primordial Spirit value: 10
Divine Skills: The Nine Calamities of Heaven and Man
Lazy Value: 200
"Why is the lazy value only 200? I lay down all night!" Zhou Bai complained, "Did I lie down for nothing?"
Christina mocked from inside Zhou Bai's head, "You can get stronger just by sleeping, what's there to complain about?"
Zhou Bai quickly asked her, "What's going on? Why is your auxiliary system shortchanging me?"
"How would I know?" Christina grumbled, "But I thought about it, and there should be a limit. The lazy value you can gain from lying down might be capped each day."
Through further attempts, Zhou Bai gradually realized that for each method of gaining lazy value, there's a daily limit.
Each day, just from lying down, he could gain 200 points.
Zhou Bai wasn't hung up on this; he couldn't wait to allocate his points.
"Add more Primordial Spirit power. Dr. Zheng's Primordial Spirit power is obviously much stronger than mine. 10 points of Primordial Spirit value is still too little."
Thinking this, Zhou Bai focused his attention on the plus sign next to the Primordial Spirit value.
Instantly, the Primordial Spirit value increased from 10 to 11 points, and lazy value decreased by 10 points.
Zhou Bai complained, "Damn, over 10 Primordial Spirit points cost ten times more lazy value??"
Christina: "You don't understand. Primordial Spirit power can't just increase freely. For ordinary people, each point increase requires hard cultivation, not like how easy it is for you. Plus, the higher the Primordial Spirit value, the harder it is to increase. How could each point always cost the same amount of lazy value no matter how high it gets?"
Zhou Bai understood, just like bench pressing for an ordinary person, going from 30kg to 50kg and from 100kg to 120kg, while both are 20kg increases, the time and effort involved are obviously different.
Zhou Bai continued to allocate points to his Primordial Spirit value, quickly increasing it to 20 points, and lazy value dropped to 100.
Rapidly increasing the Primordial Spirit value by 10 points, Zhou Bai's head felt a bit dizzy.
Christina cautioned, "Be careful not to increase it too much at once. Add one point at a time, rest a bit, and get used to it. Last time you added 10 points at once, you passed out."
"I passed out and Dr. Zheng found me? Then how did you also get caught by him?"
Christina: "I couldn't reach you, so I went looking for you and got caught too! Damn it, he thought I was a cat and wanted to experiment on me. So stupid!"
"..." Zhou Bai nodded, "My Primordial Spirit value is 20 now. Should I try adding Taohuadu?"
"No way!" Christina screamed, panicking, "Don't mess with Taohuadu! It's different from Primordial Spirit value. The auxiliary system increasing Primordial Spirit value directly boosts your power, it's pure and harmless.
Taohuadu is your realm, it's your synchronization with the Heavenly Dao. Increasing it connects directly with the Heavenly Dao, and if your cultivation isn't sufficient, you'd become insane."
"Insane?" Zhou Bai's eyes flashed slightly, seemingly thinking of something.
