Cultivation: I can solidify equipment attributes

With a thought, Li Yuan equipped the Three Elements Unity Bead.

The moment the equipment was activated, a gentle yet profound power surged from the bead and seeped into the entire body.

The essence, energy, and spirit were all enhanced by 20% simultaneously. The total amount of spiritual power in the dantian suddenly increased, the refinement of the soul improved significantly, and the abundance of qi and blood also reached a new level. The barriers between the three energies became blurred, and one could vaguely sense some kind of channel for flow between them.

The effect was extremely remarkable.

Chen Yi arrived at Wulin Market three days after the exploration of the ruins concluded.

He brought two things: a contribution point settlement sheet and a supplementary agreement from the sect regarding expansion into the depths of Ghost Mist Forest.

"Contribution points for the reconnaissance operation: 2,000 points per person. Your group and Li Ze'an's group killed two demonic cultivators, so an extra 2,000 points will be awarded." Chen Yi handed over the settlement sheet. "Total: 4,000 points."

Li Yuan accepted it.

"One more thing," Chen Yi began, introducing the supplementary agreement.

"The discovery of the ruins has made the sect pay more attention to the development of the depths of Ghost Mist Forest. The expansion plan needs to be accelerated. The location of the first outpost has been decided, about five hundred feet east of the ruins."

He pointed to it on the map.

"The sect will fully fund the construction of the outpost, which is expected to be completed within two months. After completion, a permanent team will be stationed there to patrol the area around the ruins and conduct follow-up investigations."

"The role of Misty Forest Market as an outpost will become even more important, and the sect will increase its resource investment in the market."

Li Yuan nodded and put the supplementary agreement away.

After Chen Yi left, Li Yuan returned to the stone house.

The practice of the Crimson Fire Technique never stopped during this period.

With the doubled acceleration of Yan Yuan's cultivation, his technique improved by 30%, his spiritual power by 50%, his cultivation speed increased, and his circulation of qi accelerated. Although the final stage of the Crimson Fire Technique from its peak to its perfection was long, the progress was still considerable.

After returning from the ruins, I continued my cultivation for more than ten days.

One evening, when the final cycle of the Crimson Fire Technique was completed, the fire-elemental spiritual energy formed a complete self-circulation within the meridians.

A prompt appears on the panel.

【Technique: Crimson Fire Technique - Perfected (0/0)】

The Crimson Fire Technique has been perfected.

Immediately afterwards, a second notification popped up.

The conditions for the Lingtai (spiritual platform) to become stable (green) and permanent have been met.

[Practicing two different types of cultivation techniques and achieving perfection (2/2)]

Is it permanent?

The mind is stable. The green text on the calming jade pendant reads: "The probability of going into qi deviation during cultivation is reduced by 30%, and spiritual energy conflicts are decreased."

The conditions for perfecting two different attribute cultivation techniques have been met.

Yes.

[Stable Mindset (Green) has become a permanent entry]

The calming jade pendant turned into green light in the palm of the hand and entered the body.

Li Yuan stabilized the internal changes and then turned his attention to the next thing.

Secluded in seclusion. Aiming for the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment.

The total amount of liquid spiritual energy in his dantian had been steadily increasing over the past few months, bringing him very close to the threshold of the mid-Foundation Establishment stage. The 20% increase in spiritual energy from the Three Elements Merging further shortened that distance.

Li Yuan closed the stone door of the stone house, hung a sign indicating that he was in seclusion outside the door, and sat down cross-legged.

The liquid spiritual energy in his dantian increased at a visible rate on the first day of his seclusion. The level of the liquid spiritual energy in his dantian rose slowly, and he could feel the total amount of spiritual energy increasing with each cycle.

The supply of malevolent energy from the malevolent veins plays a crucial role in this process. Previously, when relying on the foundation stones of the Gathering Malevolent Array, the supply of malevolent energy was intermittent; once each batch of foundation stones was used up, one had to wait for the next batch. Now, the malevolent veins supply it directly, ensuring a continuous flow of malevolent energy, allowing cultivation to continue uninterrupted.

The seclusion lasted for seven days.

Late at night on the seventh day, the total amount of liquid spiritual energy in the dantian reached a critical point.

The level of the spiritual energy stopped rising and began to condense.

The density of the liquid spiritual energy was rapidly increasing, its volume was shrinking, but its total amount was not decreasing. The texture of the spiritual energy was becoming more viscous, like water turning into honey.

bottleneck.

Li Yuan sensed that invisible barrier. The spiritual energy in his dantian was compressed to its limit, and no more could be put in. It wasn't that the capacity was insufficient, but rather that the quality of the spiritual energy needed a leap forward before it could continue to grow.

Li Yuan continued to circulate his cultivation technique, and after completing one cycle, a panel popped up.

[Cultivation Breakthrough: Mid-Foundation Establishment Stage]

Mid-stage of foundation building.

Li Yuan opened his eyes and let out a long breath.

The changes brought about by the breakthrough are comprehensive.

The total amount of spiritual energy has increased significantly. The amount of liquid spiritual energy stored in the dantian is at least 40% more than in the early stage of Foundation Establishment, and with the addition of various attribute bonuses, the actual amount has almost doubled.

The spiritual energy has a more condensed quality. Its flow rate is faster, resulting in greater efficiency in casting spells. For example, a single fireball spell consumes less spiritual energy but has greater power.

The range of divine sense coverage has been further expanded. Previously, the limit of divine sense was about 120 to 130 zhang, but now it has easily extended to more than 150 zhang.

The power and sustainability of spells have been significantly enhanced. The increase in total spiritual energy means that more spells can be cast in battle without worrying about running out of energy.

Li Yuan stood up and stretched his limbs.

Check the equipment inventory.

The Crimson Flame Condensation Pill is still in the equipment slot. The blue attribute of Flame Essence Refinement is still active.

Both conditions must be met: cultivation level reaches the mid-Foundation Establishment stage and fire-type cultivation technique reaches perfection.

[Permanentization successful]

[The "Flame Essence Refinement (Blue)" entry has become a permanent entry.]

The Crimson Flame Condensing Essence Pill transformed into blue light in the palm of the hand and entered the body.

The sixth blue entry is made permanent.

Li Yuan put away the panel and began a new round of cultivation.
