BXBX NOVEL Chapter 125 - Status Peering Feature
As a whole, Adam had become massively skilled in combat and cultivation when compared to how he was before, but he still had a long way to go.
His fundamentals and basics were now solid and he had also sorted out his life, so for the current moment, Adam was satisfied with where he had reached, enough for him to want to gain some new skills and abilities.
The first thing on Adam\'s list of things that he wanted to buy from the system, was the Status Peering Feature, that although seemed very expensive to him previously, was quite affordable for him currently.
As Adam continued to earn large amounts of system points, he began to realise that most things weren\'t that expensive, but he also realised that there were always more things that he wanted to buy that were increasing in price.
He knew so far that the status of any hostile beings, even in reality, would appear to him, but if he wanted to look at a person\'s status whenever he pleased, even though they weren\'t hostile towards him, he would need to buy the Status Peering Feature.
[System buy the Status Peering Feature] instructed Adam within his mind, wanting to buy it before he was no longer able to or anything in the system changed.
{Ding, the host has spent 100,000 system points to buy the Status Peering Feature} notified him the system.
[Time to finally be able to see my master\'s status] thought Adam to himself excitedly.
As soon as Adam heard the system\'s notification, that confirmed that he had bought the Status Peering Feature, he felt as though some information had entered his mind and that it had linked with his eyes.
{Now that the host has bought the Status Peering Feature, it has become independent from the host and is now owned by the host, just like the inventory in reality is owned by the host. This makes it so that the host can use it as he pleases and limitlessly, but it also limits its capabilities and makes it so that the host must bear the costs of its use} informed him the system.
Adam who lay in the corner had a complete change in emotion, and although his facial expression was the same throughout, his master could sense that there was something unusual about the way that he was acting.
His master had been closely observing him throughout the past month, that he had spent mostly training Adam, and had tested Adam multiple times to see whether he was worthy of his teachings and whether he was somebody that he would want to teach.
He had tested Adam\'s talent, perceptivity, integrity and was always monitoring Adam\'s actions and how he acted, yet, each and every time, Adam would pass with flying colours and completely surpass his expectations.
However, the old man still wasn\'t confident enough in Adam to allow himself to become vulnerable again, so continued to give him tips and oversee his cultivation, but didn\'t teach him anything that was secret or that he cared about.
While he did so, he continued to observe and test Adam and until he was confident enough in his own security and Adam\'s character, he wasn\'t planning on teaching him any of his secret and powerful skills and methods.
Adam had gone from being excited to feeling disappointed within an instant, and although he hadn\'t moved from the corner that he sat in and had his eyes closed, from the way his aura fluctuated, his master could sense how he was feeling.
The spiritual sense and auras couldn\'t be explained by ordinary means and the way that they were linked and correlated, was something that was very profound and hard to understand.
However, with it, some were able to not only sense the strength of others, using their spiritual sense, but also sense the intentions, emotions and anything else about a person. Once one became skilled in the use of their spiritual sense and aura, they could retract and release it as they please and use it for their bidding.
An example of that was what Adam had done, when he scared people using his aura and killing intent, which he was able to do subconsciously and because he had good control of his aura.
[What do you mean by limitations of the Status Peering Feature and what is the cost of its use] asked Adam who was prepared to be disappointed by the system.
{Well currently the Status Peering Feature is at LVL 1, so with it, the host can see the status of any cultivator at the Mortal / Novice Cultivation Level. However at LVL 1 it is limited to only the status of the target and to use it, it will use 5 IESP} informed him the system.
The ability of the Status Peering Fearture wasn\'t that disappointing, but the cost of it was quite high and it was quite limited. However overall Adam was surprisingly not disappointed by it and was satisfied with its effects and capabilities.
It made sense to Adam that it would use his Internal Energy, as it was somehow using his spiritual sense to gauge the power level of an opponent, then through the system, putting it in a numerical form that was more accurate.
But it made him wonder, what energy did the system use before and was using in order to provide him with everything that it was giving him. It also made him wonder about the purpose of the system and how it accomplished all its miraculous capabilities, but he knew that the system wouldn\'t give him answers.
As long as the system was helping him and without a cost, Adam at the current moment wasn\'t too bothered about its origin and wanted to make the most of it while he still could.
Adam was happy with the Status Peering Feature and was excited to use it on the people around him, especially Cole, who he was curious about the most.
