123 New Function 2 (1/2)
”Wuwu... How can you robbed all my wealth for the sake of your own maintenance....” Zhang Wu Ji wishes that he can cry out loud. About 90% of his wealth is all digested by Sheng.
[Master]
”Wuwu... How long should I work and refine the metal before I can accumulate that amount of wealth once more...”
[Masterr...]
”Should I skip the advancement to Second Heaven Mountain this time so I can start paying more attention to saving some money...”
[MASTER!]
”Huh? What's wrong with you? Why shout?” Zhang Wu J's temporary desperation went off when Sheng yelled inside his mind.
[Didn't I tell you that from this moment onwards, there's a new ability you can use?]
”Oh! I forget about that. You should tell me earlier... Don't you remember that I hate playing [Guess What is that?] game?” Zhang Wu Ji narrowed his eyes when he looks at Sheng.
”Aii... She's damn cute. How can my UPGRADE System's spirit is actually a cute little Loli?” Zhang Wu Ji speaks in his mind.
[Master... I can hear what you think, please. Be a little more cautious about your mind please?]
”What?” Zhang Wu Ji feels embarrassing as he looks at how Sheng covered few of her lack of charm parts.
”It's fine. Tell me what ability I got from this Upgrade. Everything including why you want me to provides 100,000 Qi Accumulating Pills and your 5,000 2nd-Tier upgrade request.” Zhang Wu Ji put his hand on his waist and wait for her explanation.

”This is amazing! I never thought about obtaining such an Ability from the UPGRADE System.” Zhang Wu Ji pats Sheng's head out because of his good mood, and it was accepted by the spirit happily.
The reason for his sudden happiness is because of the Ability gave to him this time is a something that allows him to control multiple targets. Still, what can this skill command?
[Intent Creation]
The ability allows Zhang Wu Ji to manufacture or creates his intent or control others. In this Realm itself, this Intent is explainable as a source of energy. Almost similar to how the Negative Qi works, the created Intent through this ability allows Zhang Wu Ji to progress in many different paths.
First thought is he can continuously use the Intent Creation to build his own army of Puppets, because, in this realm itself, Puppets not only came from the source of Negative Qi, they're a part of the life to a cultivator.
For example, the Metal Puppet that Master Jiang Lei struggle hard to forge. It was called as Metal Puppet due to its usability in the sector related to Mining, Forging, Smelting, and of course, Crafting.
Plus, there were many different Puppets exist.
Servant Puppet, Pill Puppet, Designer Puppet, Formation Puppet, and even worst, Dual Cultivation Puppet that becomes a Forbidden Treasure. Of course, this fact wasn't banned completely because both Light and Darkness Path contains Cultivation Arts related to Dual Cultivation Path.
There is no such thing as Ultimate Evil or Ultimate Good. In this Wheel of Life, everything contributes to the creation of Life, Karma, Fate, Future, and Past. This is also why there are fights, but there is no complete slaughter of one side.
The reason is that if one side falls, the winner will soon take the spot of the fallen. This Natural Law of Cultivation will not change, no matter how many millennia it takes. Such happen because there's no difference between Light and Darkness, only differences exist, is the objection between the two.
”Will it be possible for me to recreate a Physical Body for my Legacy too?” Zhang Wu Ji thought about it for a moment and decided to ask. If he's able to recreate an empty shell for the Jade Lord to descend on it like how Nature Spirit does, won't that be a good thing?
[That's possible, but the cost to maintain the puppet is different than usual due to the quality of the spirit]
[Master has to understand that because she's an Inner Qi Lord before death, the cost to maintain her spirit is extremely costly]
”Try me, tell me how much it might cost.” Zhang Wu Ji anticipates her answer patiently while he looks at Sheng counting.
[Based on master's ability and rank...]
She's considering the amount of Qi Accumulating Pills needed, as it was only a 2nd-Tier commodity.
[A thousand Qi Accumulating Pills equals to 1 3rd-Tier Qi Condensation Pill]
[A thousand of Qi Condensation Pills equals to 1 4th-Tier Qi Charging Pill]
[A thousand of Qi Charging Pills equals to 1 5th-Tier Qi Ascending Pill]
[A thousand of Qi Ascending Pills equals to a 6th-Tier Qi Ruler Pill]
[Master]
”Yes?” Zhang Wu Ji expects the answer.
[You need at least nine trillion Qi Accumulating Pills to maintain her monthly]
”PIANG!” Zhang Wu Ji falls on his head first. The cost that enough for him to purchase an entire Seven Star County shocked him. And the worst part is that this cost is not a one-time payment, but an installment as long she's a part of the Puppets.
[Master, you just ignore the fact you possess this System Realm. This realm itself can cover a few parts of your required expenses, but of course, it's very very difficult to achieve]
Sheng sneakily smiles as she explains everything to Zhang Wu Ji.
[How dare you look at me with that lustful eyes. I'm going to overwork you until Ji appears]
”Alright! So what if that's a target very far from my ability now. When I get stronger until I become an Inner Qi Soldier or Master, it will become easier!” Zhang Wu Ji thinks positively and motivates himself once more.
[How can it becomes like this!]
[Master.]
Sheng called.
”Yes my beautiful Loli?” Zhang Wu Ji replied.
[The cost of maintenance grows more as you exploit the land. Please make sure you're financial and treasure capable before overexploiting. And also you must remember that the initial cost of 100,000 Qi Accumulating Pills of maintaining this System Realm increases as you get stronger]
Sheng dropped the bomb.
”...” Zhang Wu Ji feels sick from all the bomb she dropped. But he has no choice and continues to do better. A personal Realm comparable to Jade Lord's Mystic Vein Realm is something not everyone can possess!
”Sheng... Tell me about one matter.” Zhang Wu Ji's impression suddenly turns serious it threated her to think that her lies were spotted.
[Did I speak about something contradicting? My Master is a silly one, he won't notice my lies!]
Sheng was nervous, but she has to reply to him!
[Yes, master]
[Please! Lord!]
[I'm gone!]
”How much is the maintaining cost if I'm trying to cover the whole area with Energy Gathering Plates?” Zhang Wu Ji asked.
[That's no maintaining cost, master...]
