Cultivation: I can solidify equipment attributes

Chapter 742 Mine Anchor Point

Deep mine shafts, natural karst caves.

Li Yuan stood in the center of the cave and took out the array diagram and spread it out.

The location for the array has been selected. The cave walls bear pressure evenly, and areas with dense silver crystals can serve as natural anchor points.

Before taking action, he walked around the wall.

Upon reaching the eastern side of the cave, near the entrance to a natural, independent space, a blue text fluctuation was felt within a three-foot range of perception.

The ripples originated from a fist-sized silver mineral crystal embedded in the rock wall. The crystal was located at the junction of the rock wall and the entrance, its surface gleaming even brighter, with subtle spatial patterns flowing within.

Li Yuan reached out and took the mineral crystal.

The full panel appears.

[Equipable item detected: Sky Crystal Rift]

[Equipment Attribute Preview: Sky Vein Condensation - Blue]

[Effect: The speed at which spiritual energy condenses in a spatial mineral vein environment is permanently increased by 50%; the speed at which spiritual energy recovers after a spatial spell is cast is permanently increased by 30%.]

[Preview of conditions for permanentization: Cultivate for a cumulative period of fifteen days in an environment where the concentration of spiritual energy in the space exceeds ten times the normal level]

Li Yuan added the Sky-Splitting Crystal to his equipment inventory.

The mineral crystals disappeared in his palm.

The spatial attribute spiritual energy pathway within the body trembled slightly, and the auxiliary meridians, after the completion of the Void Condensation Guiding Meridian Technique, absorbed energy even faster.

The airspace condensation has taken effect, and the permanent countdown has begun.

Li Yuan returned to the center of the cave and began to set up the formation.

The array diagram is based on spatial stability, with twelve nodes surrounding the cave wall and the array eye in the center.

Spiritual energy surged from his palm, outlining a closed loop in the void. The silver crystal served as a natural anchor point; the closed loop of spiritual energy adhered to it, immediately resonating with the spiritual energy of the mineral vein.

The twelve nodes are embedded into the wall one by one.

The key stone of the formation landed in the center of the cave.

The formation is activated.

Silvery light illuminated the four walls, and the spatial stability runes spread out, gradually stabilizing the previously trembling crystalline surface. The spiritual energy overflowing from the three natural, independent spatial entrances was also intercepted by the guiding array and diverted along the mineral vein pathways.

The great demon dragon stood at the entrance and nodded.

"Faster than expected."

Li Yuan walked to the center of the formation.

Within a three-foot range of perception, blue text fluctuations emanated from the spirit stone at the array's core.

[Equipable item detected: Void Pulse Array Eye Stone]

[Equipment Attribute Preview: Ore Vein - Void Solid - Blue]

[Effect: Spatial formations are permanently increased in effectiveness by 30% in mineral vein environments; spiritual energy circulation efficiency is permanently increased by 20% in mineral vein environments.]

[Preview of Permanentization Conditions: Successfully deployed five spatial arrays (1/5)]

Li Yuan removed the array eye spirit stone and then replaced it with a spirit stone of the same spatial attribute from his storage bag.

The formation trembled slightly, but quickly stabilized.

Send the empty vein array eye stone into the equipment slot.

The ore vein has become solidified and permanence is 1/5 complete.

The great demon dragon circled the cave, patted several walls, and observed the flow of spiritual energy at the three entrances.

"The craftsmanship is quite good."

He turned to look at Li Yuan, paused, and said, "I need to discuss something with you."

Li Yuan looked at him.

"This mine is more than just a mine," the great demon Chilong said in a low voice. "Go deeper in, and there are some old things there."

The Heavenly Dragon Palace sent people to investigate several times in the past, but they were all blocked by the restrictions. "I see your spatial skills are quite good, why don't you accompany me on another trip?"

"What restriction?"

"Spatial ones. There are more than a dozen, some are natural spatial rifts, and some are man-made seals. The Heavenly Dragon Palace does not have any Nascent Soul stage demons who are skilled in spatial formations, so no one has been able to break them."

Li Yuan looked into the depths of the cave.

The structure of the cavern was recorded during the formation of the array. There is indeed a passage deep inside, which is mostly blocked by silver crystals, with spiritual energy remnants remaining in the gaps.

"Is the compensation separate?"

"Of course," the great demon dragon answered readily. "Breaking one restriction counts as one share."

Li Yuan nodded.

The two walked deeper into the cave.

The passage meandered through the crystalline wall, growing narrower with each step. Li Yuan used spatial cutting techniques to create a path, the blade slicing through the silver crystal, sending fragments to the ground.

The first restriction is located eighty feet deep.

A spatial rift, about a foot wide, stretched across the center of the passage, its edges flashing with alternating silver and dark light. Spiritual energy was torn apart the moment it approached.

Li Yuan activated the Space Imprisonment Technique, and the imprisonment field unfolded along the crack. The sealing force of the Sealing Gap and Suppressing Abyss was reduced, and the crack narrowed by more than half.

Then, the spatial cutting technique cut a wedge at the edge of the crack, and spiritual energy was injected.

The crack narrowed to two inches and stopped expanding.

The second location, at a depth of 120 feet, is a man-made spatial barrier. Most of the spiritual patterns on the wall are shattered, with only the core circuit still functioning.

The array's celestial pivot swept across the spiritual patterns.

Li Yuan spent about fifteen minutes dismantling the core circuit, injecting spiritual power into the key nodes, and the restriction dissipated.

The third, the fourth, and the fifth.

Natural cracks and man-made barriers appeared alternately. Li Yuan cracked them one by one, his speed increasing.

The great demon dragon followed behind without saying another word.

Two hundred feet deep, the passage suddenly opened up.

Ahead was a stone chamber.

The stone chamber is about ten zhang in diameter, with smooth walls, clearly carved by hand. The walls are covered with spiritual patterns, and most of them are well preserved.

There is also a restriction at the entrance.

This restriction is much more sophisticated than the previous one, with spatial blockade and spiritual energy barrier intertwined, and three circuits locked together.

The array's celestial pivot was operating at full capacity.

After looking at it for a moment, Li Yuan found the common node of the triple loop.

Spiritual energy is infused.

After a few breaths, the restriction dissipated.

The entrance to the stone chamber was open.

Li Yuan went inside.

In the center of the stone chamber stood a three-foot-high array platform, constructed of dark gray rock and covered with spiritual runes. The platform was empty, yet the spiritual energy circulation channels continued to flow at a low frequency.

Li Yuan squatted down and placed his palm on the edge of the platform.

The Array Dao Heavenly Pivot was activated, and the internal circuits of the array platform unfolded layer by layer.

At its core is a spatial coordinate marking array. Surrounding it is a teleportation loop; once marked, remote teleportation can be initiated from other locations to this coordinate.

Space anchor point array.

The "Myriad Phenomena Retrospection" fully records the structure of the array platform.

The great demon dragon stood at the doorway and peeked inside.

"What's inside?"

"A platform," Li Yuan said, "a spatial anchor point array, used to mark coordinates."

The great demon dragon frowned: "Is it valuable?"

"The array platform can't be moved, but the array structure can be learned."

The great demon dragon showed little interest in formations and turned its gaze to the four walls of the stone chamber.

"What about those spirit runes on the wall?"

Li Yuan stood up and looked around at the four walls.

The wall's spiritual patterns are divided into two layers. The inner layer is matched with the spatial anchor point array, while the outer layer is an independent composite spiritual pattern with a deeper level of complexity than a fourth-order array.

The fourth-order array is perfected, its key being a closed loop without a carrier. The outer layer of spiritual patterns can also maintain itself, but there are tiny openings at the nodes.

Spiritual energy flows from the opening into the closed loop, replenishing what is consumed.

Li Yuan stared at those that had opened for a long time.

The Myriad Manifestations Retrospection records the position and angle of every opening. The Array Dao Heavenly Pivot compares and deduces the outer spiritual patterns with its own fourth-order perfect understanding.

This is precisely the entry threshold for the fifth-order array path.

Li Yuan took out the introductory materials on fifth-order formations that he had exchanged with the Mingyuan Sect and probed them with his divine sense.

The document contains only one sentence: "The closed loop of spiritual energy can actively absorb the spiritual energy of the environment to achieve self-replenishment, and theoretically it will never run dry."

The wall in front of me is the actual object.

Li Yuan closed his eyes and simulated a carrier-free closed loop in his sea of ​​consciousness, then opened a tiny gap at the first node.

The surge of spiritual energy caused the closed loop to tremble, nearly collapsing.

The angle is wrong.

He adjusted the direction of the gap and then channeled spiritual energy into it.

This time, the closed loop was stabilized.

The second node, then the third node, are opened in succession.

The three gaps simultaneously absorb the spiritual energy from the environment, accelerating the closed-loop operation and increasing the density of spiritual energy.

Fifth-order array formation, beginner level.

Li Yuan opened his eyes.

The Myriad Manifestations Retrospection has recorded the spiritual pattern structure of the entire stone chamber, including all loops of the spatial anchor point array and the outer layer of composite spiritual pattern nodes.
