Su Luo slowly stopped inscribing the new skill, a strong feeling of exhaustion mixed with a strange sense of transcendence surging up at the same time.

It was as if his consciousness was about to break free from the constraints of his body and soar into the sky.

There's a feeling that I'm about to come out.

It also looks a bit like rectal prolapse.

Your "Three-Cycle Method" has been upgraded!

[Spirit +0.1]

Because Su Luo's changes to the Cycle Method were revolutionary, the Three-Cycle Method and the previous Dual-Cycle Method are almost two completely different systems. Therefore, the system recertified it as a brand new skill, rather than simply upgrading the original level of the Dual-Cycle Method ".

Su Luo Mei Mei's Attribute boosting ability, thanks to the system's power, allows her to "skip the cultivation process" and directly gain Attribute Growth, undoubtedly saving Su Luo years of arduous cultivation time.

But before she had finished scrolling through many pages, Su Luo began to feel a sense of separation between her body and soul.

Attribute panel.

[Su Luo: Alive]

[Age: 22]

[Level: 6 (85%)]

[Strength: 12.2 (↑1)]

[Spirit: 16.5 (↑0.7)]

[Constitution: 13.5 (↑1.1)]

[Mana: 37 (↑2)]

[Free Attribute Points: 6]

Most of the improvement in strength and Constitution Attributes came from the body modifications performed with the help of Jing Yunxin's treatment, while Su Luo's subsequent minor adjustments contributed the remaining increase.

[Three-Cycle Method (blue) Level 12 (0/12000)]

In theory, he could continue carving, improving his skill level and further enhancing his mental Attributes. But his intuition told him that he would face unpredictable and enormous risks.

Upon closer inspection of the panel, Su Luo discovered Watson.

Only the Strength and Constitution Attribute columns have an inconspicuous plus sign next to them, indicating that Free Attribute Points can still be invested to improve them.

However, the plus sign after the Spirit Attribute column has quietly disappeared.

The system has prohibited him from using Free Attribute Points to directly improve his mental Attribute unless he increases his Constitution.

Su Luo closed her eyes again, focusing her senses inward, carefully experiencing the mysterious connection that maintained her soul and body. It was not a physical entity, but it was more fundamental than any material connection.

He quickly accessed the relevant knowledge base for comparison, and also browsed the fragmented information on the World Channel that occasionally confirmed his conjecture.

Finally, Su Luo determined that once her mental strength reached 14 points, it was equivalent to entering a new realm.

The soul's strength has reached a level where it can exist independently of the physical body.

However, there remains a deep and inseparable bond between his soul and his body.

Why do you ask why deep binding exists?

Nonsense, this is Su Luo's own body, not someone else's.

Thus, the originally weakly correlated Attributes of spirit and Constitution became dramatically amplified after the spirit broke through 14 points, forming a new constraint.

Strength and Constitution are inherently highly synergistic, and the difference between their values cannot exceed three points.

Su Luo's spirit and Constitution differed by a full three points, which translates to at least a tenfold difference in numerical value.

If she further enhances her mental Attributes, Su Luo doesn't know what will happen.

A frail body cannot support a powerful soul; perhaps it will separate directly?

There are two ways to solve this.

Firstly, he sought a method to actively separate his soul, develop a technique that allowed him to freely detach and return to his physical body, and emulate the "Yang Spirit Excursion" in the Legendary of immortal cultivation, Class Change Soul Cultivator and occasionally possessing another body.

Another method is to strengthen her Constitution, allowing Su Luo's frail appearance to reach a point where she can kill an enemy with a single punch.

Su Luo's choice was... to have it all.

But we must take things one step at a time, and we must walk one step at a time. The most urgent task is to address our Constitution weaknesses.

With a thought, [Baleful Qi Infusion (Blue)], the complete Martial Dao Inheritance System obtained from the Trial Instance, [Body Modification (Blue) Level 18 (8576/18000)] which he had already upgraded, a massive amount of data about the Mutation beast's body structure, and a whole bunch of related green skill knowledge...

All these materials, as if drawn by an invisible hand, emerged from the Starry Sky of his consciousness and piled up before his "eyes" into mountains of knowledge.

Su Luo conjured up a watch engraved with the sun, moon Stars of thin air.

The switch for adjusting the time flow system wasn't anything special; Su Luo just thought it looked really nice.

Time flow rate: three times.

He needs to activate his professional skill [Burst of Inspiration] to accelerate the deduction, so he doesn't have enough Mana and Divine Power to maintain the higher time flow rate ratio in the Dream World.

Three times is the optimal choice at present.

As usual, start with a general overview to grasp the core ideas.

The core of [Baleful Qi Infusion] lies in guiding and absorbing the special energy known as "Baleful Qi" that dissipates at the moment of a living being's death, thereby tempering the physical body.

The skill requires constructing temporary energy channels within the body to forcibly extract and bind these Baleful Qi, using them to cleanse muscles, bones, and internal organs.

This process is extremely domineering, drastically consuming one's own life force to resist the Corrosion of the Baleful Qi. Once successful, it can significantly enhance the physical body's toughness and pure power.

Su Luo tried it out herself, running a long way to treat the monster to a barbecue of its companions. After trying it many times, she discovered that this "Baleful Qi" was Essence an element.

A special elemental energy formed by a mixture of multiple factors, including death itself, the intense emotions of a living being before its death, and environmental Mana, and transformed through some unknown mechanism.

Su Luo couldn't yet understand the specific conditions and principles of this transformation, but it did indeed occur naturally alongside the event of "death."

Why would the death of a life be accompanied by the release of such strange energy?

Su Luo instinctively felt that something was amiss.

In the world before the Crossing, when people died, they simply died; there was no bloodshed or the earth gushing forth. Death itself was a process defined by the living being itself.

Death is the end of a life activity and is part of the Cycle of matter and energy. For the objective material world, the basic particles that constitute life do not change in Essence.

Elements are Mana energy transformed by specific Attribute rules. When Primordial Mana is transformed according to certain specific rules representing the bottom layer of the world, it becomes elemental energy with distinct characteristics.

Following this logic, does the existence of "Baleful Qi" mean that the underlying rules of this world are inscribed with the principle that "the death of living beings will transform into a specific element"?

Death is imbued with special meaning and power by the rules of this world.

So how did the world itself know of the existence of "living beings" before it was formed?

Was the birth and composition of this world not purely a matter of natural Evolution, but rather influenced or defined by some higher-level being that he cannot currently understand or observe?

The more I think about it, the stranger it gets; the more I think about it, the more confusing it becomes.

Su Luo felt a chill run down her spine.

He abruptly cut off this overly ambitious and currently unsolvable line of thought.
