Sanctuary Paradise

Chapter 730: Burning Soul and Refining Heart
very good!

Inside the room, Xin Lailai looked at the lines of prompts flashing before her eyes, with an unusually satisfied look in her eyes.

I can only say that it is worthy of being a product of Paradise. Even without the "Soul Burning and Heart Refining Ritual", just based on the effects of "Soul Secret Art·Heart Flame" and "Heavenly Heart Flame Seed" themselves, it is definitely an existence that can be called a wizard's artifact.

The former can be regarded as the natural enemy of various illusion effects, especially for people like them whose will attributes are unique among the same level. In their hands, Heart Flame can not only bully weak opponents, but also play a certain disruptive role in high-intensity combat.

As for the latter, there is even less to say. The simple improvement in meditation effect, the pure numerical power, the 770% mental power improvement efficiency, combined with the black maple tea leaves and the origin stone·remnant, as well as the 620% meditation effect improvement they got from the "Heart of the Ghost" and the "Last Magic Emperor", even without the Soul Burning and Heart Refining Ritual, it is estimated that their mental strength can be raised to a small level.

And if we add the soul burning and heart refining ritual...

Xin Lailai looked at the light blue flame in front of her, her eyes moved slightly, and a hint of anticipation flashed across her pupils. Then she calmed herself down, took out the materials for the soul-burning and heart-refining ceremony that had been prepared in advance by Ling Yuzi, and sat down cross-legged on the ground.

"Ling Yuzi, let's start." "Yes!"

The next second, materials with a total value of 1 million Paradise Points were seen floating around Xin Lailai, and at the same time, a large number of soul storage crystals flew out from her storage space.

The light blue flame in his palm turned into a lively tongue of fire, which wrapped up some of the materials and quickly merged into drops of strange liquid. Under the control of him and the girl, he carved out one spell after another around the two of them, and finally -

Om-! !

A huge amount of soul energy poured down, like the best firewood, causing the light blue flames surrounding Xin Lailai to surge dozens of times. At the same time, a cold reminder sound suddenly rang out in his mind:
[Tip: It is detected that the pioneer is arranging the soul burning and heart refining ceremony on its own. This ceremony will "super-massively" activate the soul burning and mental power enhancement effects of "Heart Flame·Heavenly Heart". After the ceremony is activated, the pioneer needs to continue to provide a large amount of pure soul energy for burning, and will continue to bear high willpower judgments during this period, but will "super-massively" increase the efficiency of meditation on mental strength, mental toughness, and mental resistance (it is expected to increase independently by 3850%~6160% on the original basis. The specific efficiency depends on the number of activation days and the amount of soul energy burned. If at least 1 soul energy is burned every day, the maximum efficiency can be reached in 7 days)]

[Warning: After setting up the "Soul Burning and Heart Refining Ritual", it must last for at least 7 days before the activity of "Heart Flame·Heavenly Heart" can return to normal levels. If the soul energy provided during this period is insufficient, it will cause serious backlash to the soul origin of the pioneer. Please choose carefully.]

As the light blue flames surged, a cold reminder and warning sound appeared directly on Xin Lailai's brand interface. He simply glanced at it and ignored it. Instead, he manipulated a soul storage crystal (complete) to release all the soul energy inside, and then...

Peng——! !

The originally light blue heart flame burned from light blue to dark blue with the help of massive soul energy. Wisps of flames ate into his soul like bone-eating maggots, wrapping his entire soul in the sea of ​​fire.

[Hint: Currently under the judgment of "Soul Burning", current judgment strength: 129 points]

[Tip: Due to the effect of "Burning Soul and Refining Heart", the mental power improvement efficiency brought by the skill effect "Heavenly Heart" of "Heart Flame·Heavenly Heart" has been independently improved by 4180% on the original basis]

The burning pain that truly penetrated deep into the soul spread from Xin Lailai's body, and he looked at the prompt that popped up in front of him and just nodded slightly, feeling the mental power that was being refined bit by bit to become purer and stronger in the raging flames. A hint of satisfaction appeared in his eyes, and then he closed his eyes, continuing to control the heart flame that had turned into deep blue to burn every corner of his soul and spirit.

If an ordinary wizard or psychic saw this scene, they would definitely suspect that there was something wrong with the other party's brain when seeing this almost self-destructive method of improving mental power. Continuously enduring the soul burning judgment that requires more than 120 points of willpower to withstand, it can be said that this kind of pain alone is enough to drive many people crazy.

But this is the method to improve the magic sickle, or in other words, in any top-notch inheritance that can be mentioned, there is almost no lack of such extreme training methods that are almost self-abuse.

The agent's boundary thunder backfired, the netherworld inheritance's netherworld eroded, the shadow of the law-destroying blue steel shadow self-devoured...

For ordinary people who find it difficult to reach the top echelon in their lifetime, these improvement methods may be an incomprehensible extreme behavior. But for anyone who wants to reach the top, if he can't even withstand this little bit of training, then the so-called strongest is nothing but empty talk.

This is why, although the willpower of the Death Bearer, Yamu and others is not as good as theirs, they have all reached more than 100 points. Perhaps the hardships that other foreign-level teams have endured along the way are not as outrageous as theirs, but to say that anyone can easily reach the foreign-level team is a pure joke.

Sizzle——!!

Inside the room, the sound of the soul burning continued to sound from the depths of the soul of the black-haired young man who was maintaining the state of assimilation with the elves. As the dark blue flame burned, the strength of his mental power, which had been almost stagnant, began to change little by little as time passed, and finally...

[Reminder: This "Burning Soul and Refining Heart" has ended, mental strength +1.1, mental toughness +0.7, mental resistance +3.6]

Three hours later, with the sound of a cold reminder, Xin Lailai, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, slowly opened his eyes. The flames on the surface of his soul and spirit quickly converged back into the soul space. Then he opened his personal information interface and looked at the hidden attributes column:
[Mental Strength: 106.8]

[Mental toughness: 110.4]

The strength of his mental power increased by 1.1 in one breath, and his mental toughness successfully broke through to over 110 points. It can be said that the improvement in just three hours was equivalent to the effect of his normal ten days of sleepless meditation, and that was with the Heart of the Netherworld and the final Magic Emperor gain.

This is the power of the Soul Burning and Heart Refining Ritual, which directly increases the mental power efficiency of "Heart Flame·Heavenly Heart" by 770% by a maximum of 6160% through multiplication, directly allowing them to increase their mental power efficiency by a terrifying 1 times in that one hour.

Taking into account the 620% fraction from the "Heart of the Netherworld" and the "Last Magic Emperor" that could not be amplified by the "Soul Burning and Heart Refining Ritual", their meditation efficiency for the past three hours has directly reached 3 times that of normal circumstances, which is truly a hundredfold gain for every effort.

Of course, even so, increasing the mental strength by 1.1 points in three hours is still a bit too exaggerated, especially when their mental strength has already reached 105.7 points.

You should know that the mental strength of normal third-order units is basically at 60 points. Those that can reach 70 points are already at the upper level of the third order. 80 points is the top echelon, which is definitely the top echelon standard. 90 points is already the top echelon... which is the limit of normal third-order units.

The reason why they have such high mental power is that half of it is derived from the basic energy intensity derived from 90 points of real intelligence... about 50 points to be precise.

And of the remaining 55.7 points, the epic quality spiritual gem given to them by the promised teacher... Xiao Pu's master accounted for another 30 points. This is the external object that has greatly improved their mental strength. It can only be said that it is worthy of the master's work.

As for the last 25.7 points, it is not easy to calculate because it is the accumulation of multiple improvements in different periods, but the black maple tea and their spiritual world should account for about 60%, the nightmare gem obtained in the past accounts for about 25%, and the last 15%... that is, the mental strength of less than 3.86 points, is the mental strength they got through meditation in the past. Of course, this algorithm averages the value of 105.7 points of mental strength. If it is really implemented in a specific period, the improvement brought by meditation at that time must be more than less than 3.86 points. In other words, mental strength is the same as defense. If 105.7 of the 3.86 points of mental strength is placed in a period when the mental strength is 20 points, the improvement it brings is likely to become several times or even more than ten times this value.

But this still cannot change the fact that meditation itself has a relatively limited effect on improving mental strength. In other words, in a place like Paradise, where ten years is enough for a person to rush from the first level to the strongest or even the strongest, an ability like meditation, which takes months or even years to take effect, is too difficult to play its normal role without giving it additional gains.

The same mental strength of 100 points, for those strong people in the native world who have lived for dozens or hundreds of years, perhaps 80% of it is obtained through the improvement of meditation. But for a Paradise Contractor who advances to the next level every year on average, without any improvement in meditation, the fact that meditation can account for 100% of the 18 points of mental strength can be considered as the other party's extraordinary talent.

This is why there is a "Meditation Secret Realm" specially prepared for meditation among the special facilities of the park. If there were no such special facility, not to mention 100%, but more than 90% of the strongest and most powerful contractors would probably have mental or spiritual flaws because their meditation abilities could not keep up with the speed of their strength improvement.

Simply put, just like what happened just now, the mental strength was increased by 3 points in just 1.1 hours. Even under the Soul Burning and Heart Refining Ritual, it is definitely not a normal situation.

You know, according to Xin Lailai's initial estimate, it would have been a very good result if they could increase their mental strength by 0.3 points on the first day of the Soul Burning and Heart Refining Ritual. But now the actual increase is nearly 4 times higher than this.

As for why this situation occurred, according to Xin Lailai's speculation, it was most likely due to the black maple tea leaves they had used in the past.

As the most advanced treasure to assist meditation, the effect of the black maple tea leaves was so strong that they could lie down for a whole day and night after just one sip. If you think about it carefully, it is impossible for them to digest this level of treasure very cleanly.

Taking into account the fact that Yuan also mentioned in the notes he gave them that the leaves of the black maple tree were an excellent material to assist in the Soul Burning and Heart Refining ritual, Xin Lailai speculated that the reason they had made such a big improvement this time was probably because the Soul Burning and Heart Refining ritual had allowed them to digest the remaining black maple tea effects that they had been unable to digest in the past.

In fact, it is very simple to verify this hypothesis. The effect of the Soul Burning and Heart Refining Ritual gradually increases, but the effectiveness of the remaining black maple tea does not. Therefore, as long as they continue to do it, by comparing the daily increase in mental strength to see whether it is lower or higher than the previous day, they will naturally be able to judge whether it is their innate talent or the power of the black maple tree.

As for the present...

"According to the current strength of the soul, three hours of soul burning and heart training every day is the limit."

After sensing the condition of her own soul, Xin Lailai nodded slightly, and had a rough idea of ​​how long they could spend burning their souls and refining their hearts every day.

3 hours a day, maintaining a training efficiency of 480.52 times throughout the whole process, plus the normal 13.9 times mental training efficiency, at this rate, they will be able to push their mental power to the limit of 120 points in two months at most. By then, as long as their knowledge level is in place, not to mention compound magic, at least they should be able to release single-attribute fifth-level large-scale magic alone.

"There's still too little time..."

After going over in his mind what they needed to do, Xin Lailai couldn't help but rub his forehead and sighed in distress.

Even though they were almost splitting a day into 72 hours, and even with him and Ling Yuzi as dual-core drivers, they still felt that they did not have enough time.

You know, it has been almost eight days since they returned to Paradise, and until now they have not had time to deal with the batch of 'alchemical materials' they brought back when they just returned, as well as the new version of the demon power and angel power. Due to the iteration of these things, their Crystal Devouring Technique and Blade Entangling·Tyrant Slash must also be iterated. After all, these are things released using the old version of the demon power and angel power.

As for the energy of annihilation...that thing is beyond their ability to handle, and they can only rely on the divine power of 83203, the chief of the academic sect.

There is also soul studies. Although their soul mysticism and soul rune studies have reached LV.20, their soul weapon studies are still at LV.12. In addition, they also have a mind control secret technique that requires soul mysticism to reach LV.30 to learn. It can be said that there is simply no end to what they can learn.

"It seems I have to go to the idol's performance this time, so I have to be away for another five days. Although I can rush back at any time during this period through the soul space, it will still delay me for a long time..."

"Although the Dark Glowing Star has been handed over to Xiao Gu and his team, it is best to take some time to go over and take a look just in case, to deter the local forces there, so that they don't cause any trouble..."

"Speaking of which, there is also the destination of the next world. Considering the value of the third-order derivative world, perhaps there is no need to worry too much about the benefits this time. Prioritize..."

[Ding~! You have a new message reminder, sender: 83203]

Did the boss 83203 give them any news? ! !

Suddenly, a message notification sounded. Xin Lailai moved his eyes and when he saw the source of the message, his eyes suddenly lit up and he quickly opened the communication channel:

……

83203: "Your career template is ready, come here."

Xin Lailai: "Understood! Boss 83203, please wait a moment! We will be there soon!!!"

……

Light blue text flashed by, and Xin Lailai answered quickly. Without caring about anything else, he directly opened the transmission interface and disappeared on the spot.

After waiting for so long, their third-level career templates are finally coming out!

You know, he is still thinking about what 83203 said about helping them integrate breath-type abilities into the Soul Master. If this thing is successful, it will definitely be a huge help to the development of their Soul Master and intuition abilities!
