Cultivation: I can solidify equipment attributes

Chapter 702 Nascent Soul Transformation Manual

The rift valley is an independent space.

Li Yuan sat cross-legged on the rock platform, and the Nascent Soul Returning to Origin Technique, now fully mastered, circulated automatically. After the origin of the small world became permanent, the spiritual energy carried spatial attributes with each cycle, and its condensation speed was even faster than before.

Within the dark golden luster on the surface of the Nascent Soul, silver ripples were already clearly visible. Only the final stage remained before reaching the late Nascent Soul stage.

After finishing his practice, Li Yuan opened the storage bag to take inventory.

Two rounds of intensive cultivation in Shattered Star Valley, coupled with profits from purchasing materials from the Azure Profound Realm and selling demon beast materials, have resulted in a substantial reserve of spirit stones. There are several thousand high-grade spirit stones, and even more mid-grade spirit stones, along with fourth-tier talismans, spatial attribute mineral powder, and materials for stabilizing realms.

Having plenty of spirit stones on hand allows one to prepare for certain things in advance.

Transformation into a deity.

After the late Nascent Soul stage comes the Deity Transformation stage. Li Yuan is currently in the mid-Nascent Soul stage, and it will be some time before he reaches the Deity Transformation stage, but it's always good to figure out the key to the breakthrough in advance.

I currently have enough spirit stones, and I used them to exchange for three books related to the Nascent Soul stage in Mingyuan Immortal City.

A general treatise on the Nascent Soul stage, a detailed explanation of the core grades of the Nascent Soul stage, and a record of Nascent Soul breakthroughs.

After returning to the independent space of the Rift Valley, Li Yuan studied them one by one.

I finished reading the general treatise on the transformation of the spirit first.

The essence of the Divine Transformation is to allow the Nascent Soul to undergo a complete transformation.

Although a Nascent Soul cultivator has condensed a Nascent Soul, the Nascent Soul still needs to rely on the physical body for cultivation and recovery. The physical body is the foundation, and the Nascent Soul is the core; the two complement each other.

Transforming into a deity reverses this relationship.

During the Nascent Soul transformation, the nascent soul completely transforms into the cultivator's true physical form. The physical body becomes secondary, resembling a Dharma body, derived from the core, and remains one of the sources of combat power, but is no longer essential for survival. If the physical body is destroyed, it can be reconstituted by expending spiritual energy and time.

From now on, all cultivation will revolve around the core. The circulation of cultivation techniques, the condensation of spiritual energy, and the advancement of realms will all revolve around the core.

Li Yuan opened the detailed explanation of the core grades of the Divine Transformation Realm.

The core of the Divine Transformation is divided into four grades: Supreme, Superior, Middle, and Inferior.

The quality of a core depends on the degree of completion during the Nascent Soul transformation. The higher the quality of the Nascent Soul, the purer its spiritual energy, the deeper the fusion of essence, qi, and spirit, and the higher the core's quality. A low-grade core barely completes the transformation and has limited potential. A mid-grade core is relatively stable and is at the level of most Nascent Soul cultivators. A high-grade core is extremely rare, and those with it are often top-tier fighters within the same level. A supreme-grade core has only been seen in ancient texts, and may only appear once every tens of thousands of years.

Li Yuan closed the jade slip and then opened the Record of Breakthrough to the Divine Transformation Realm.

The record details the breakthroughs of seven Nascent Soul cultivators. Their preparations varied, but all seven spent a considerable amount of time in the late Nascent Soul stage, refining the quality of their spiritual energy and the integration of their essence, qi, and spirit. One of them even remained at this stage for three hundred years before finally breaking through.

Of the seven, two are low-grade cores, four are mid-grade cores, and one is a high-grade core.

The top-tier core cultivator wrote in his record that during the Nascent Soul transformation, essence, energy, and spirit must advance simultaneously; any lag in any one of them will lower the final grade.

Li Yuan read the three classic texts repeatedly for several days, storing the key points into his mind.

The Nascent Soul stage cannot be rushed. The most important thing right now is to reach the late Nascent Soul stage and solidify the foundation.

Put the books away and continue your cultivation.

The Nascent Soul Returning to Origin Method and the Dark Abyss Demonic Origin Technique operate in tandem, with spiritual power and demonic energy each following their own pathways within the body, while the spatial attributes of the Small Realm's origin, after being permanently solidified, are always attached to it.

During a break from cultivation, Li Yuan activated the Dragon Luck Technique.

Once mastered, the Dragon Luck Technique can provide a clear direction, stabilizing the flow of fortune and transforming intermittent improvements in luck into continuous ones. However, the Dragon Luck Technique is not yet finished; perfection is its ultimate goal.

The dragon's blood energy surged from its bone marrow, releasing outwards along the unique frequency of the Dragon's Power Technique. The frequency at the Great Perfection stage was already very stable, with only occasional minor fluctuations at the edges.

That slight fluctuation represents the difference between achieving great success and perfect perfection.

Li Yuan wasn't in a hurry. The Dragon Luck Technique wasn't suitable for brute force; it could only be cultivated over time. The permanent dragon-related attributes such as the Condensed Essence of the Dragon Vein, the Subtle Breath Within the Scales, and the Remaining Fangs of the Ancient Dragon continuously nourished his bloodline, thickening his foundation every day.

Days passed.

One day, after finishing his practice, Li Yuan, as usual, activated the Dragon Energy Technique to release the blood energy of the dragon.

The moment the blood and qi frequency spreads outside the body, the slight fluctuation at the edge disappears.

The frequencies are perfectly integrated, without any disorder.

The Dragon's Fortune Technique, perfect.

The changes after completion are not drastic. The flow of fortune becomes extremely clear, the guidance is more precise, and the improvement in luck also increases. Dragon Fortune Technique is not a combat spell; more changes will gradually emerge in daily life.

Li Yuan withdrew his blood energy and, without lingering, transformed into a beam of light and rushed towards Tianheng Immortal City.

Tianheng Immortal City, Danfang Pavilion.

The catalog of fourth-order pill formulas unfolded before him, and Li Yuan read through it page by page.

Last time I came to Tianheng Immortal City to purchase materials, I didn't specifically look for pill formulas. This time I have plenty of spirit stones, so I might as well take a look.

When Li Yuan flipped to the middle of the table of contents, a name made him stop.

Breakthrough Pill. Mid-grade, fourth rank.

The prescription only has two lines of instructions, aiming to help cultivators break through cultivation bottlenecks and increase their cultivation speed. The main ingredients are the Breakthrough Spirit Mushroom and Condensed Essence, supplemented by several kinds of spiritual herbs that accelerate the condensation of spiritual power.

The phrase "breaking through the realm" is common, but mid-grade fourth-tier breakthrough aid pills are rare. Li Yuan used contribution points to exchange for a pill recipe and then purchased all the necessary spiritual materials at the spiritual material shop in the Immortal City.

Back in the isolated space of the Rift Valley, the alchemy furnace was set up.

The broken-mirror Ganoderma lucidum is entirely silvery-white, with a hollow stem and extremely potent medicinal properties. The Condensed Essence is a liquid spiritual material that will rapidly evaporate upon entering the furnace; the fusion must be completed before evaporation. The combination of the two main ingredients is extremely precise; even a moment's delay will not suffice.

The first batch.

The broken Ganoderma lucidum melted smoothly upon entering the furnace. The condensed essence followed immediately, evaporating as soon as it touched the furnace walls. Li Yuan used his micro-control spiritual technique to simultaneously intercept the medicinal power through three channels, guiding the fusion.

Upon detecting that the condensed essence was evaporating too quickly, Li Yuan immediately reduced the pill fire by half.

The adjuvant drugs are added in two batches to mitigate the rejection between the main drugs.

The pill core takes shape, and the medicinal power is concentrated.

Extracting the elixir.

Two broken-mirror pills lay at the bottom of the furnace, their surfaces gleaming with a pale silver luster.

Within a three-foot perception range, blue text rippled. Without needing to reach out, the text information appeared in the mind's eye.

【Broken Mirror Speed ​​- Blue】

[Effect: Increases cultivation speed by 50%; the closer one is to the current major realm breakthrough point, the greater the additional increase in cultivation speed, up to a maximum of 100%.]

Li Yuan picked up the pill.

The moment your fingertip touches it, the complete panel appears.

[Equipable item detected: Breakthrough Pill]

[Equipment Attribute Preview: Broken Mirror Speed ​​Enhancement - Blue]

[Effect: Increases cultivation speed by 50%; the closer one is to the current major realm breakthrough point, the greater the additional increase in cultivation speed, up to a maximum of 100%.]

[Preview of Permanentization Conditions: Successfully break through one major cultivation realm while this pill is equipped]

The 50% increase in cultivation speed is a basic bonus; the second half is the key.

Li Yuan is now close to the late Nascent Soul stage, which fits this description perfectly. As for the conditions for permanentization, whether the transition from the mid-Nascent Soul stage to the late Nascent Soul stage counts as a major breakthrough depends on the system's judgment.

Even if it's not permanent, it's still worth using.

Li Yuan placed the Breakthrough Pill in the first position of his equipment inventory.

The elixir vanished in his palm.

[Broken Mirror Speed ​​Freeze - Blue has taken effect]

[Effect: Increases cultivation speed by 50%; the closer one is to the current major realm breakthrough point, the greater the additional increase in cultivation speed, up to a maximum of 100%.]

The circulation of spiritual energy within the body accelerated instantly.

The Spirit Array Returns to Origin and draws in spiritual energy; the Array Core Accelerates Fully Condensed Cultivation; the Infant Nourishing and Spirit-Nourishing Medicine Doubles in Efficacy; Infant Essence Nourishes and Enhances the Quality of Spiritual Power; Spiritual Marrow Condenses the Infant and Purifies Spiritual Power; in addition, there are basic bonuses for Breaking Through the Realm and extra bonuses for approaching the breakthrough point, and many cultivation-related attributes are activated simultaneously.

Li Yuan circulated the Nascent Soul Returning to Origin Method, completing one cycle.

The speed at which spiritual energy flowed into the nascent soul was nearly twice as fast as before the equipment was installed. The silver ripples within the dark golden luster on the surface of the nascent soul deepened slightly with just one cycle.

At this rate, he'll be in the late Nascent Soul stage soon.

However, there is no bottleneck in the breakthrough itself. Permanent attributes such as Breakthrough Realm, Demon Spirit Transformation, and Flawless Spiritual Power have already eliminated most of the obstacles. As long as the spiritual power refinement and nascent soul quality are accumulated to the required level, one can naturally overcome the hurdle.

The Breakthrough Pill accelerates accumulation, not breakthrough.

Li Yuan closed his eyes to cultivate, no longer distracted.

a few days later.

During a break from cultivation, Li Yuan opened a spatial passage to the Cangxuan Realm.

This is my sixth shopping trip.

At the Shattered Void Wasteland stronghold, Fang Zhi had already prepared a list. The requests from fifteen clients were more than last time, with the number of items increasing to eighteen. Li Yuan purchased everything he needed in Mingyuan Immortal City and Xuanyang City, then entered the Cangxuan Realm with the spiritual materials.

The transaction at Xuan Shi Market is complete. The spirit stones were charged at two to three times the market price in the upper realm. With fifteen customers plus three new additions, this trip yielded higher profits than the previous ones.

Li Yuan then swept through Cuiwei Market and Xuanshi Market, acquiring a considerable amount of third-tier spiritual herbs, second-tier ores, and several rare demon beast materials from the Upper Realm.

After returning to the Upper Realm, the spiritual materials of the Cangxuan Realm were sold off in batches, and the reserves of spirit stones increased again.

The cultivation continues.

The "Broken Mirror Condensation Speed" modifier remains active, and the closer Li Yuan gets to the late Nascent Soul stage, the greater the additional bonus. His spiritual energy condensation speed increases day by day.

Until one day, when the cultivation was completed, the dark golden luster on the surface of the nascent soul had reached a critical point. The silver ripples were no longer on the surface, but had penetrated deep into the spiritual energy structure of the nascent soul.

With a few more days of accumulation, a breakthrough can be achieved.

Li Yuan didn't rush to break through the barrier; he first took care of the matters at hand.

The elixirs were replenished, the spiritual materials were returned to their places, and the accounts for the purchases made by the Cangxuan Realm were settled.

Subsequently, Li Yuan transformed into a beam of light and left the independent space of the rift valley, flying towards the ascension passage of the Tianyue Sect.

Nether.
