It was probably because the passive skill he had drawn last time was a little useless.
Therefore, the passive skill he drew this time was simply terrifying.
‘This passive skill just makes up for my current weakness!’
Zhou Feng was satisfied with this new passive skill that made him braver as he fought.
This was because this passive skill had a percentage bonus. Even if he cultivated to the later realms, it would still be useful.
It wasn’t like those passive skills from before.
For example, Zhou Feng’s Old Skin, which he had obtained in the beginning, only added a little defense each time.
It seemed to be very useful at the beginning, but up until now, it could only be said to be icing on the cake.
Moreover, it would be diluted as his cultivation continued to rise.
The passive Fighting Spirit was different. It could raise his strength by 30%.
Moreover, there was no logic to it. It was a direct bonus without any restrictions. It was simple and crude enough.

The most important thing was that this passive skill made up for the weakness of Zhou Feng’s attack methods.
All along, Zhou Feng had a weakness.
That was that his attack methods were insufficient. If one were to compare the two points of attack and defense, Zhou Feng’s defense was above the norm, but his attack power was completely insufficient.
His terrifying physical body coupled with his abnormal recovery speed made him an unkillable cockroach.
However, he did not have any means to defeat the enemy with a single strike.
1
This was because Zhou Feng was naturally at a disadvantage as a vagabond cultivator.
He did not have the opportunity to come into contact with more dao arts, nor did he have the opportunity to obtain more spiritual artifacts.
Breaking 10,000 spells with a single strike. Truthfully speaking, this method was quite suitable for Zhou Feng.
In any case, he only needed to focus on improving his physical body.
The passive Fighting Spirit could be considered to have removed Zhou Feng’s only weakness in a short period.
‘Not enough! I still need more passive skills!’
Although the passive Fighting Spirit was a great boost, it would be great if he could obtain more passive skills.
According to what he had deduced, as long as the skill panel absorbed Spiritual Qi, it would be able to speed up the progress of the progress bar.
Then, if he found some spiritual items rich in Spiritual Qi, would they charge the skill panel?
Zhou Feng had done this before. He had directly consumed Spirit Stones to push the progress bar forward.
But now that he thought about it, he needed too many Spirit Stones.
Moreover, Spirit Stones had other uses, so it was not worth it at all.
‘There seems to be something similar to the treasure appraisal meeting in this Heavenly Star Gathering!’
With the Appraising Eye, he might be able to pick up scraps?
“The first Dao discussion is about to begin! Fellow Daoists, please head to the Stargazing Platform!”
Just as Zhou Feng was about to leave the private room, a steady voice entered Zhou Feng’s ears through the door and window.
It felt as if someone was speaking beside him.
And with Zhou Feng’s sharp senses, he actually couldn’t sense where this voice was coming from.
It was the first Dao discussion!
Zhou Feng remembered that Dao discussion was the main purpose of this Heavenly Star Gathering.
Because this world was very large, and there were all sorts of races, there were all sorts of cultivation paths.
Before the Purple Mansion realm, perhaps everyone was similar.
But from the Divine Ability realm onwards, everyone began to choose their own paths.
For example, sword cultivators, body cultivators, and so on. All sorts of sects represented different cultivation paths.
In addition to increasing one’s knowledge, discussing the Dao with each other also had great benefits for future cultivation.
Especially when geniuses from different paths discussed the Dao, different sparks of thought collided with each other, and it was very easy to stimulate inspiration.
There were even some freaks who were able to create new dao techniques.

This was also the advantage these large clans had. It was different from vagabond cultivators who could only immerse themselves in bitter cultivation and cultivate behind closed doors.
Although the vagabond cultivators had always been compared to the disciples of the large clans, it had to be said that the cultivation environment of these vagabond cultivators was too poor!
‘Discussing the Dao?’
Zhou Feng was extremely interested in the so-called Dao discussion.
This was because he belonged to the type of vagabond cultivator who relied entirely on himself to cultivate. From the start of his cultivation until now, there was basically no one to guide him.
He relied entirely on himself to fumble around.
He didn’t even know if he was cultivating right or not. In any case, he just kept his head down and charged forward.
He would be very willing if there were a chance for him to learn about the orthodox cultivation system systematically.
…
The Stargazing Platform was located on the roof of this small building.
A special formation here allowed everyone to see the stars beyond the nine heavens.
At that moment, the small Stargazing Platform was filled with people.
Almost everyone was at the Purple Mansion realm, and the auras of the people seated at the very front had already far surpassed those of the Purple Mansion realm.
This was a place where geniuses gathered, and they could not act unruly.
In this place, everyone was basically well-behaved and didn’t dare to make any noise.
When Zhou Feng arrived here, the seats in front were all filled with people, and only a few seats were left behind.
Moreover, this solemn atmosphere made Zhou Feng’s whole body tense up.
‘So strong! Those people in front…’
As soon as he entered, his sharp senses warned him that the people in front were extremely dangerous.
This was the gathering of geniuses!
“Alright! Everyone! Almost everyone is here! Then let’s begin today’s Dao discussion!
“We are fortunate to have an eminent monk from the far west today. Let this eminent monk begin today’s Dao discussion!”
Zhou Feng did not see the monk, but he could clearly hear what this person said.
‘The far west? Eminent monk?’
Zhou Feng immediately captured these two key pieces of information.
It turned out that there were monks in this world too. He had never met one before, so he had been under the impression that there were no monks in this world!
In that case, were there also Taoists in this world?
He stood at the corner of the crowd and restrained his aura as he watched the so-called Dao discussion.
A handsome monk slowly walked onto the stage.
This monk looked very young, giving off a feeling that he was only in his teens.
He had a gentle smile on his face, his teeth were crystal clear, and his bald head seemed to be emitting a faint light.
“Amitabha!”
The little monk habitually chanted a Buddhist mantra first.
Immediately, the little monk’s body emitted a faint golden light, and there seemed to be the sound of 10,000 Buddhas chanting beside his ears. A faint fragrance assailed his nostrils.
This little monk introduced himself, “This little monk’s Dharmic name is Ruo Sheng! I come from the Dharma Rain Temple in the far west!”
At the same time, when he introduced himself, a golden lotus appeared in his hand.
“What I’m about to tell you today is the method of the power of will of our Dharma Rain Temple!”
As he spoke, all sorts of strange phenomena began to appear in the surroundings.
Ruo Sheng was spouting all sorts of flowery words.
Moreover, he did not hold back at all and explained the cultivation details of the method of the power of will.
This was a completely different path from the cultivation method that everyone was currently cultivating.
At first glance, it sounded very attractive because this power of will was extremely flexible and could do all sorts of things.
In addition, what Ruo Sheng said was very tempting, so many people in the surroundings immediately became addicted to it.
‘The power of will of all beings? It can be cultivated together with other cultivation methods?’
Zhou Feng frowned.. He had a feeling that this power of will method was a little strange.
