《Grand Defender》Chapter 3
Advertisement
That meal was nasty. 10/10 would not eat burnt snakes again. What was even worse was the [Food Poisoning] that came with it, but I at least got a Perk out of it.
After eating burnt stuff and enduring [Food Poisoning] I was starting to get very thirsty.
Thankfully, I had seen a river when I was on top of the boulder, a river that looked pristine enough to drink out of.
My new Perk would probably help if I was incorrect.
I walked up to the small stream and drank several mouthfuls of water before stopping, having seen the reflection of a very special tree through the calm and silklike water.
A mango tree!
And even better, all of the mangoes were mature! It’s not like I don't like green mangoes, it’s just that I prefer ones that actually taste like something.
I grabbed the tree’s fruit from a low hanging branch and bit into it, its taste being several times better than what I thought possible.
As I got my face covered with the yellow fruit, I noticed some fish swimming in the calm river.
Catching them with my bare hands would prove quite difficult, as such, I engineered a plan.
Gathering the stones needed for my plan was easy thanks to [Geologist], I used a flat stone as a table, and chipped a smaller, but also flat, stone with a tougher one.
The process took a while but was easy thanks to [Mason].
I now had a [Stone Spear Head].
Congratulations! You have earned 1 level in both [Geologist] and [Mason].
All Stats+10
All I needed to do now was to find a strong and straight stick, which was also easy due to the abundance of trees nearby.
After finding the stick, I made a small rectangular cut at the end of it, in which the [Stone Spear Head] would go in. I made a roundish hole through both the [Stone Spear Head] and the stick when connecting them, putting a smaller stick in the hole, finishing the [Stone Spear] by securing the smaller stick to the bigger one with some makeshift rope I made using soft roots.

Congratulations! You have crafted a [Stone Spear]
A makeshift weapon and tool created by [Sanjo]
Tier I
+10 Attack
Can be used as a wand for [Geomancy]
Not only is it a spear but also a wand?! How great!
And so, I held my weapon vertically in front of me, concentrating on its stone tip.
The uneven edges of the [Stone Spear] started to even out somewhat, and got slightly sharper.
Congratulations! You have earned 1 level in [Geomancer].
All Stats+5
Finally! A level in [Geomancer]!
It would take some practice to get used to it, but it will pay off in the end.
I sat on the river’s edge with my [Stone Spear] in hands, my legs crossed to prevent me from stabbing myself in the foot.
A fish who hadn’t noticed me slowly approached my location, attempting to eat something that was stuck between some rocks.
I quickly stabbed the fish, turning the clear water into a turbulent red mess as it squirmed.
I placed the now dead fish in the ground, and repeated the process another five times.
Conditions met! New Classes available!
[Spearman] Combat Class
Tier I
Allows proficiency with [Spear] type weapons.
[Fisherman] Utility Class
Tier I
Allows proficiency when fishing.
“[Spearman]!”
I was obviously going to pick [Spearman], but wasn’t so sure about [Fisherman].
[Fisherman] didn’t seem like a Class I’d use much, and I wanted to have a free Class Slot just in case.
Congratulations! You have chosen the [Spearman] Class.
[Fisherman] has been discarded
All Stats+5
Discarded? I expected the class to remain in Available Classes.
Well, I can't really do much about that.

Verdant Heart Seed - A Reverend Insanity fan-fiction
Back in the Late Antiquity Era, the protagonist meets his untimely demise. But Heaven and Earth always leaves a way out, his new cultivation journey begins anew on the path of reclaiming his former strength and defying Fate.---This is a story about a native cultivator of the Gu world. He lived in the era of/before Spectral Soul Demon Venerable (two venerable eras before the main RI plot). He suffered the rise of the demon venerable, barely able to make his arrangements before his death. He manages to rebirth, but doesn't everything go as planned. The story starts off in an isolated small word (grotto heaven), until the MC can grow and reclaim his former glory, before surpassing it. (long way, he was already rank 8 before) The MC has a pragmatic worldview, aligned with what you would expect from someone living hundreds of years in that kind of hostile environment. He doesn't shy away from immoral acts if it benefits him. The MC bears close resemblance to Fang Yuan in this regard, but his goal is not eternal life.One of my aims was to showcase the later introduced cultivation rules into the mortal cultivation (dao marks, attainment etc.) and explore novel scenarios within this highly technical cultivation environment.
