C532 – Gathering the Spiritual Force Seed a Mistake in the Mission

Jiang Hao was seething with anger.

“What’s wrong with just thinking it over?”

“No way!”

……

Having vented his frustration, Jiang Hao resigned himself to the system’s directives, taking it one step at a time.

The reason was simple: the first stage of “Self-Immersing Visualization” required concentration.

It involved compressing his Spiritual Force and forming it into a Spiritual Force Seed.

​The second stage was about nurturing this seed, much like a hen warming her eggs, constantly nourishing the Spiritual Force Seed with his energy.

Once the Spiritual Force Seed was sufficiently robust, it could serve as the foundation to manifest the deity of his imagination.

……

Now, Jiang Hao began with the initial step, focusing on the formation of the spiritual seed.

Adhering to the Visualization technique, he methodically refined his Spiritual Force.

After a considerable amount of time, Jiang Hao had successfully condensed all his Spiritual Force into a single seed.

In his mind’s eye, a pea-sized seed, glowing with a hint of purple, hovered serenely.

This was the Spiritual Force Seed Jiang Hao had created!

His next task was to continually merge his Spiritual Force with this seed.

Patience was key in this gradual process; haste was not an option.

With the Spiritual Force now condensed into a seed, Jiang Hao’s mastery over it grew increasingly refined.

Opening his eyes, he focused on the small cup on the table.

With a mere thought, the cup began to move and, obeying his will, levitated.

A simple gesture from him, and the cup gracefully landed in his hand.

This was spiritual manipulation, a minor application of his Spiritual Force.

In the next instant, with a mere thought, a flying dagger appeared before him.

Guided by his Spiritual Force, the dagger danced through the air like a sprite, weaving in and out of the void.

With practice, its speed accelerated, effortlessly breaking the sound barrier.

Now, with his enhanced Spiritual Force, he could manipulate anything within a hundred-meter radius.

After toying with the dagger for a bit, Jiang Hao stored it away with satisfaction.

It was then that he remembered the S- rating from his last mission.

The objective had been to capture the vengeful spirit Hong Ying, but fate had other plans, and he ended up vanquishing three such spirits instead.

Moreover, I had cleared out every single ghost in the haunted mansion.

Given that, I should have exceeded the mission requirements. So why did I receive an S- rating?

The system’s guide states that ratings are categorized into C, B, A, and S levels, each with its own plus or minus designation.

For going above and beyond on this mission, I should have earned an S+!

Sensing Jiang Hao’s confusion, the system chimed in.

“Ding! Host, although you exceeded the mission’s objectives, there were two errors!”

“Firstly, during the mission, a little ghost managed to escape!”

“Secondly, you failed to meet the mission’s requirement to demonstrate your might to the Underworld and serve as a warning to other ghosts!”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Hao was taken aback.

“A little ghost got away?”

He racked his brain and quickly something clicked.

“Could it be the butler ghost who was assigned to me?”

“Now that I think about it, I never saw him during the final sweep of the ghost mansion!”

That’s when it hit Jiang Hao.

……

Meanwhile, in a luxurious mansion in the eastern district of Tianhee City, the lights flickered erratically, the air was heavy with Yin energy, and mist swirled about.

Seated prominently was a man of imposing stature.
