Chapter 522: Chapter 522
"As expected, anything produced by the system must be top-tier!" Jiang Yuan thought delightedly.
After the progress bar finished, he clicked to check the crafting materials, and he was even happier—creating a one-time capture net required the consumption of Blood Crystals, Slime, Little Demon Fangs, and numerous other materials, all of which were treasures that could be farmed from small monsters in the Mysterious Cave!
They occasionally required one or two special materials, but those were frequent rewards in charity orders, considered cheap bulk consumables.
"Is this what they call ’good deeds rewarded’?" He suddenly remembered the time he exchanged for that Star-like Grass, planning that even if he couldn’t return for the side quest, being able to refine an Antitoxic Elixir to save a life would be good.
The side quest was picked up easily, lives were saved, rewards were obtained, and he even received a small flame!
A treasure capable of making it onto the Spirit Fire List can’t be measured by money!
Jiang Yuan first made ten large capture nets to store in the Storage Bag, then opened the skills interface and clicked the "Cultivate" button behind the small flame without hesitation.
[Would you like to consume 100 Immortal Jade to cultivate the juvenile Earth Spirit Flame?]
Just one click cost him a million Spirit Stones, but for Jiang Yuan, who now had over thirty million in his account, a million was nothing!
With the rapid change in his account balance, a dazzling flame effect flashed across his vision.
[Earth Spirit Flame: Level 1, requires another 1000 Immortal Jade for the next level]
"Oh wow! This is definitely a ’money-burner’!" He twitched at the eye, struggling to imagine how much Immortal Jade it would take to raise this tiny flame to maturity.
However, at Level Two, it could serve as an "adhesive" to combine two Fire Skills into one.
The power of Black Flame Storm was decent, but the cooldown was too long, making it quite underwhelming; once Heaven-Burning Flame leveled up, the cooldown was reduced, but the technique was inherently low-tier with weak attack power.
If those two could be merged, just like the new skill formed by merging Five Elements Thunder Technique and Cloud-Piercing Thunder: Five Elements·Cloud-Piercing Thunder; and the Devouring Technique and Vast Mountains and Rivers into the new skill: Devouring Mountains and Rivers, preserving the strengths of the original skills and discarding the drawbacks, the new skill could reach new heights from the existing tier.
Well, let’s just spend money for skills!
Jiang Yuan felt a bit of a pinch, but he still clicked the "Cultivate" button.
The speed at which Spirit Stones were earned was fast, but the speed they were "burned" was even faster! His assets shrank by a third in an instant, but the flame on the interface was much larger than before, and the thumbnail looked much nicer.
[Detected a compatible skill for merging with Earth Spirit Flame, would you like to consume 100,000 Spirit Stones to unify the skills?]
"Merge! Merge! Merge! I’ve been waiting, hurry up!"
[Consumed 100,000 Spirit Stones, using Earth Spirit Flame as a medium, unified Heaven-Burning Flame and Black Flame Storm into a new skill: Heaven-Burning Storm]
[Heaven-Burning Storm: Can release a massive flame storm to scorch and strike the target, with a chance to inflict a "burn" continuous damage buff]
As expected, after the unification of the two, the new skill became a high-tier Earth Technique. Although Black Flame Storm changed from a small range group attack skill to a single attack, the damage increased and the cooldown time decreased, compensating for the lack of a strong single attack.
[Earth Spirit Flame: Level 2, requires another 5000 Immortal Jade for the next level]
"Oh wow?" Although he was mentally prepared, since Earth Spirit Flame is a supreme treasure of the world, cultivating it requires generous spending, but seeing that advancing to the next level required fifty million Spirit Stones, Jiang Yuan was still stunned.
Alright, let’s first replace the needed fire workshops with advanced fire seeds, as for upgrading the Earth Spirit Flame, that can wait a bit.
As expected, the advanced flame is indeed more effective than the previous Heaven-Burning Flame.
Previously, every other day a spark had to be thrown in to maintain it. Making ordinary items was acceptable in terms of time, but when it came to cultivator items, it would take one or two days, and urgently needed items had to rely on Spirit Stones to accelerate.
Now, with the Level Two Earth Spirit Flame, one ignition could last a month, and all processing times were sped up by 30%, greatly improving the workshop’s efficiency.
"There’s still some time, why not..." Jiang Yuan looked at the account balance, then at the two small million Spirit Stone stacks quietly lying in the Storage Bag, deciding to satisfy a bit of curiosity.
The system appraised the small dark blue cube as being formed by compressing a million Spirit Stones with Power of Space for easy carrying, and needed considerable force to open when necessary.
He just wanted to see how the little dark blue cube was opened and how much a million Spirit Stones looked like.
With more than twenty minutes left until Wilderness Ascension, the sky was already getting slightly bright, the summer vibe becoming increasingly intense, even the early morning air carried the unique scent of summer.
Jiang Yuan looked around his room, feeling it wasn’t big enough, so he walked to the courtyard to look around, and the ordinary fields beyond the wooden bridge were thriving with fruits and vegetables;
Spiritually glowing fields across the river were flourishing in Level Two and Level Three fields; the herb gardens and orchards were thriving, and the workshops were clicking away busily...
Looking around, there was surprisingly no place in the large courtyard to place the Spirit Stone stack.
He sighed and had to place the small dark blue cube near the Divine Wood and poke it firmly.
First, there was a soft sound, then two Spirit Stones fell from the small cube, followed by a seemingly endless avalanche, as falling Spirit Stones piled up, then the crashing sound grew louder, the Spirit Stones accumulating under the Tree House nearly drowned Jiang Yuan!
Finally, with a faint rumble, a million Spirit Stones almost filled the entire front yard!
"As expected of a million Spirit Stone stack, it’s incredibly large!" This scene before him had a much stronger impact than seeing a million in cash for the first time, causing Jiang Yuan to click his tongue in awe.
Then he felt a bit of a headache thinking about how automatic pickup into the account would take quite some time.
The system remained silent, and even if it cost some money to learn this skill, if he could make a million Spirit Stone stack himself in the future, it would be worth it.
He was staring idly at the large pile of sparkling Spirit Stones when Ling Ti heard the commotion and peeked out from the Tree House, chuckling, "Master must be wealthy, taking out so many Spirit Stones to sunbathe?"
"I got a million Spirit Stone stack earlier, and I wanted to figure out how it was done, and then..." Jiang Yuan looked up at it with a smile, "I ended up with this much."
Ling Ti immediately perked up, wagging its tail proudly, "This thing looks simple, but it actually involves the magical Power of Space!
To create a million Spirit Stone stack, you must meet two conditions: first, the realm must be high enough; second, you need to have a talent for Space Technique.
I happen to have a bit of talent and meet these two conditions, so... woof woof! Want to give it a try?"
When tracing Xie Chenyuan’s aura, the old dog used space tearing to travel, allowing it to trace the target in an extremely short time despite not having a more detailed location.
Finally having the opportunity to flaunt its strength, Ling Ti wagged its tail excitedly, hoping to show a little paw.
[Contract pet Ling Ti is offering to teach you "Space Secret Technique", would you like to continue learning?]
Huh? Space Secret Technique?
Jiang Yuan was stunned by the offer.
Back when he rescued Shi Hu at Wo Hu Temple, it took him into the small space opened by Xuanyuan Yangguang, where they found a one-third part recorded "Space Secret Technique," which has been hanging in the incomplete skills page since learning it. Updates are released by novel{f}ire.net
Could it be that Ling Ti also knows the Space Secret Technique and can perfectly complete it?
