Cultivation: I can solidify equipment attributes

Chapter 735 The Abyss of the Outer Sea

The open sea, the deep sea area.

The beam of light shot from the Liangzhou coastline into the sea and plunged into the water.

The permanent attribute of the jiaolizard spirit blocked the water pressure, and his body, after mastering the Spiritual Light Tempering Technique, could withstand it as well. Li Yuan descended, passing through cracks in the seabed rock layers, and entered the depths of the trench's tributary network.

Two thousand zhang, three thousand zhang.

The bottom of the trench is pitch black.

After the perception spread out, the distribution of demonic energy in the deepest part of the trench was reflected in the sea of ​​consciousness.

The rift is located at the southern part of the trench bottom, about four hundred zhang long and ranging from half a foot to two feet wide. Unlike the deep abyss, it wasn't forcibly opened up; it's more like the spatial wall cracked on its own after being soaked in demonic energy for a long time.

There are five demons around the rift.

Three Golden Core cultivators and two early Nascent Soul cultivators crouched in the grooves of the rock walls on either side. Dark purple mist seeped continuously from the cracks, spreading into a murky undercurrent in the seawater.

Li Yuan did not slow down and rushed directly into the crevice.

The erosion wave penetrated the protective layer of demonic energy, and the moment the scales were exposed, the spatial slicing technique followed, piercing through the chest cavity. The remaining spatial rift lingered in the wound for more than three breaths, shattering the demonic energy pathway.

The first Nascent Soul cultivator collapsed on the spot.

The second nascent soul turned and fled towards the rift.

The Demonic Binding Technique was activated, with twenty-four binding ropes wrapping around its legs and waist. The Spatial Imprisonment Technique locked off its escape route, while a blade cut in from the side, severing the main vein of demonic energy in its neck.

As the three Golden Core level beings lunged forward, three blade lines swept across the seawater, shattering their protective demonic energy and causing their bodies to disintegrate and turn to ash.

The five demons were gone in less than twenty breaths.

The force field on the body surface intercepted the essence of demonic energy. Five portions of essence circulated into the body, further increasing the refinement of spiritual power.

The fissure was longer than the one in Liangzhou, but narrower, and its edges lacked ancient demonic runes.

Li Yuan raised his hand and set up a sealing array. Six nodes were arranged along the edge of the rift, and a closed loop of spiritual energy formed in the void, with the sealing effect of the sealing array eye stone superimposed on the array.

The formation is closed.

The fissure shrank from two feet to one foot, then compressed to less than half a foot. The dark purple demonic energy almost stopped, and the seawater became clear again.

Progress of permanent sealing of the abyss: 2/3.

Li Yuan did not immediately surface. Instead, he sat cross-legged at the bottom of the trench and circulated the Dark Abyss Demonic Essence Technique.

Seven days have passed since I equipped the Magic Breath Crystal.

The segmented purification array, the six-point resonance sealing array, the demon-slaying array, the mystic wall array, and the outer space sealing loop in the deep valley have been operating continuously.

The equipment slot vibrated.

The magic crystal began to dissipate.

The scene unfolds in the sea of ​​consciousness.

A purification array operates ceaselessly within the underground veins. In the passageway where demonic energy surges, a closed loop of spiritual energy reverses the demonic energy into spiritual energy.

A cultivator sat cross-legged in the center of the formation. His spiritual energy circulation was not eroded; on the contrary, it recovered even faster. Spiritual energy and demonic energy circulated alternately, and the spell circulation lasted longer.

The image fades away.

[Permanentization complete]

【Magic Breath Continues - Green】

[Effect: Permanently increases spirit energy recovery speed by 30% in demonic environments; permanently increases spell duration by 20% in mixed spirit and demonic states.]

Green light flows into the depths of the meridians.

Li Yuan circulated the Nascent Soul Returning to Origin Technique for one cycle, and his spiritual energy recovered much faster than before.

After finishing his practice, he rose up and floated to the surface.

When it surfaced, the escape light did not fly away immediately.

Li Yuan hovered above the sea, raising his hand to activate the Shadow Erosion Technique.

With a flick of his fingertip, the demonic energy created a channel in the spatial wall. The inner wall was smooth and stable, and the energy had not dissipated even after several hundred breaths.

The Shadow Erosion Technique has been mastered.

At the same moment, a vibration came from the storage bag.

Abyss Demon Ring.

The blue entry, "Peeping into Demonic Knowledge," requires the following condition for permanentization: mastering a third-tier demonic energy spell.

Shadow Erosion Technique, a third-tier spatial attribute demonic energy spell, has reached its peak.

The conditions are met.

Li Yuan took out the Abyss Demon Ring and put it into his equipment slot. The dark red metal ring disappeared in his palm, then shattered and dissipated.

A stream of blue light flowed out and entered the body.

The scene unfolds in the sea of ​​consciousness.

A cultivator crouched in the darkness, facing a demon casting a spell. The demon thrust its claws forward, condensing dense demonic energy into a rotating dark purple shield. The cultivator peered into the depths of the shield, watching the demonic energy's path unfold layer by layer. When he closed his eyes and opened them again, an almost identical dark purple shield had formed in his palm.

The image fades away.

[Permanentization complete]

【A Glimpse into the Demon's Subtle Insight - Blue】

[Effect: Permanently increases the effectiveness of demonic energy spells by 30%; when observing an opponent casting a demonic energy spell, there is a chance to deduce the underlying principle.]

The blue light flowed into the depths of the meridians.

Li Yuan retrieved the remaining ashes of the Abyss Demon Ring, and his escape light rose as he flew towards the deep valley of the abyss.

Dark Vein Abyss Zone.

Li Yuan passed through the rock layers and returned to the ruins of the ancient demonic sealing chamber.

The concentration of demonic energy in the Abyss Zone remains extremely high. Since acquiring the Abyss Demon Stone equipment, he has already accumulated enough days of training here to meet the required standard.

The condition for making the green "Demon-Containing Abyss" attribute permanent is: cultivate for a cumulative period of thirty days in an environment where the concentration of demonic energy exceeds five times the normal level.

The allotted time has been reached.

The equipment slot vibrated.

The Abyss Stone began to dissipate.

The scene unfolds in the sea of ​​consciousness.

Deep underground, demonic energy surged like a thick liquid. A cultivator sat cross-legged within it, his body covered by an extremely thin layer of spiritual energy. As the demonic energy surged in, impurities were stripped away by the spiritual energy membrane, leaving only pure demonic energy that seeped into his meridians and circulated within the demonic energy pathways of his body.

The image fades away.

[Permanentization complete]

【Abyss Demon - Green】

[Effect: Automatically filters impurities from demonic energy during cultivation; permanently increases cultivation speed by 50%.]

The green light flow merged into the demonic energy pathway.

The three attributes became permanent one after another, freeing up several slots in the equipment inventory.

Li Yuan withdrew his inner vision and closed his eyes to circulate his internal energy.

The spatial spiritual energy near the crack was still eroding. The six-point resonance sealing array and the outer closed loop pressed down on the crack wall, and the spatial fluctuations were squeezed into a narrow area and oscillated repeatedly.

The auxiliary meridians of the Void Condensation Meridian Guiding Technique continuously absorb the spiritual energy of the space.

In the blink of an eye, the walls of the auxiliary meridians suddenly became transparent.

Spatial spiritual energy flows in from the outside and circulates along the auxiliary meridians.

He was proficient in the "Empty Condensation and Guiding Meridians Technique".

The spiritual energy continued to cleanse and assist in the rapid formation of the meridian pathways. Once the last section of the meridian was completed, spatial attribute spiritual energy would form a self-circulating system within it.

The technique of "empty condensation and guiding the pulse" has been mastered to a minor level.

Li Yuan opened his eyes, got up and left the Abyss Zone.

A complete map of the Dark Veins unfolded in the sea of ​​consciousness. The Myriad Manifestations Retrospection marked all known fissures, most of which had already been sealed.

At the end of a branch of the dark vein in the northern wasteland of Lingzhou, there is a spatial rift that is slowly expanding.

Li Yuan transformed into a beam of light and emerged from the ground, heading north.

The northern wilderness of Lingzhou.

The beam of light landed on a barren, yellow grassland. The ground was cracked and dry, and there was no sign of human habitation for hundreds of miles.

Perception probed underground. The dark vein branch was about 600 feet underground in the wasteland. The crack at the end was extremely small, less than two feet wide, and its expansion was slow.

There are no demon guards.

Li Yuan used spatial cutting techniques to carve out a passage along the rock strata, exploring all the way down to a depth of 600 zhang.

At the end of the dark vein branch, a crack is embedded in the rock wall, its edges shimmering slightly.

With six nodes embedded, a closed loop of spiritual energy is formed.

The moment the formation closed, the crack walls were pressed down and began to slowly contract.

Progress of permanent sealing of the abyss: 3/3.

The conditions are met.

The equipment inventory shook violently.

The sealing array eye stone began to dissipate. A stream of blue light surged out and flowed into the body.

The scene in the sea of ​​consciousness unfolds.

A cultivator placed his hands on the wall of the spatial rift. Spiritual energy surged from his palms, transforming into silver spiritual patterns that gradually converged along the edge of the rift. When the last spiritual pattern closed, the rift completely disappeared, and the wall was restored to its original state.

The image fades away.

[Permanentization complete]

【Sealed Gap, Abyss - Blue】

[Effect: Permanently increases the sealing power of sealing spells by 30%; grants the ability to actively close spatial rifts.]

Blue light flowed into the meridians.

Li Yuan took out a spirit stone of the same origin from his storage bag and replaced the array's core. The sealing array continued uninterrupted.

He walked through the passage and returned to the wasteland.

The light rose and flew towards the deep abyss valley.
