Profound Violet Talent - Martial Saint Body!

"Attribute Panel, charge!"

Inside the earthen house, in Lin Yi's room, Lin Yi held the silver ingots he got from his father and, without any hesitation, commanded the Attribute Panel in his mind.

"Hoo!"

As Lin Yi's command fell, the four large silver ingots instantly vanished like a gentle breeze.

Immediately after, on Lin Yi's Attribute Panel, the charging progress number began to jump rapidly.

96.6%!

97.6%!

98.6%!

Finally, after a few moments, when the number on the Attribute Panel reached 100%, a line of text instantly appeared before Lin Yi's eyes:

"Congratulations, Dao Master, charging progress has reached 100%. You can now use Immortal Skills to evolve your talent. Do you wish to evolve?"

"Evolve!"

Lin Yi answered decisively.

Instantly...

"Whoosh!"

The originally transparent Attribute Panel transformed, instantly becoming a vast starry sky.

Within the starry sky, stars of white, red, yellow, cyan, purple, and gold flickered.

Among them, white stars were the most numerous, occupying a large portion of the sky. Red stars were second, but also quite a few.

However, the number of yellow stars was much smaller, likely less than half of all the stars.

Cyan was even fewer, about less than 1%.

As for purple and gold, their numbers were so scarce they were outrageous. Even combined, they were less than a hundred.

But despite their small numbers, these less than one hundred purple and gold stars shone like the sun and moon in this starry sky. Their dazzling light even overshadowed all other stars.

As Lin Yi's command fell, in the vast starry sky, a white star suddenly descended, seemingly about to become Lin Yi's talent.

"Pure White Grade Talent?"

Seeing the color of the star, Lin Yi felt a slight disappointment.

However, considering that white stars were the most common on this starry scroll, evolving a Pure White Grade Talent at this time was actually quite normal.

"Sigh! I can only hope it's a talent related to physical aptitude!"

Lin Yi prayed inwardly.

But, just then--

"Detected the Dao Master's first active consumption of a price to evolve talent. Talent level automatically increased by four grades. Pure White Grade talent transformed into Mystic Purple Grade talent!"

Text appeared, and then, under Lin Yi's astonished gaze, he saw the originally falling White Star rise into the sky again.

In its place, a purple star as dazzling as the moon in the starry sky suddenly plummeted down!

Then, it swiftly flew out from the bottom of the starry sky, entered reality, and merged into Lin Yi's brow.

Instantly, a line of text appeared before Lin Yi again:

"Congratulations, Dao Master, on the successful evolution of your talent this time. Dao Master has obtained the Mystic Purple Grade talent—Martial Saint Body!"

[Talent: Martial Saint Body]

[Grade: Mystic Purple Grade]

[Introduction: You were born divine. Your physical cultivation aptitude is unrivaled in this world. You are a peerless genius appearing once in a hundred billion people! A true world-shaking prodigy!]

"Boom!"

The text faded, and then Lin Yi's entire body erupted with sounds. His muscles and bones chimed as if infused with infinite mysterious energy.

In an instant, Lin Yi felt his aptitude being infinitely elevated. His body underwent a transformation from the deepest genetic level, and a wave of comfort from his soul and marrow washed over him.

"Hoo! Haa! Hoo! Haa..."

In the room, with the aptitude modification complete, Lin Yi instinctively began circulating his main cultivation technique, the Sixth-Rank Breathing Technique—Whale Swallowing Breathing Technique.

His breath was long and continuous, like a giant whale inhaling water, refining the medicinal power that had previously remained in the depths of his body in large gulps.

Under his refinement, Lin Yi's body continued to grow stronger.

On the Attribute Panel, the cultivation progress was rapidly increasing.

[Cultivation: Eighth-Rank Early Stage (93%)]

[Cultivation: Eighth-Rank Early Stage (94%)]

[Cultivation: Eighth Grade Mid Stage (1%)]

Lin Yi was undergoing a transformation. He practiced for a full half-hour before stopping.

Afterward, Lin Yi focused his gaze and saw that the various attributes on his Attribute Panel had drastically changed—

[Dao Master: Lin Yi]

[Cultivation: Eighth Grade Mid Stage (8%)]

[Cultivation Method: Sixth-Rank Cultivation Method Whale Swallowing Breathing Technique]

[Martial Arts: Sixth-Rank Martial Art Bright Moon Saber Art (Great Accomplishment, 96%) Ninth-Rank Martial Art Black Tiger Saber Art (Perfected, 73%)]

[Immortal Skill: Evolve Talent]

[Existing Talents: Martial Saint Body (Mystic Purple Grade), Saber Dao Genius (Crimson Grade)]

[Current Charging Progress: 0.3% (Talent Evolve can be performed after charging reaches 100%.)]

"Eighth Grade Mid Stage, 8%. My cultivation improved this much this time?"

Seeing the numbers on his Attribute Panel, Lin Yi was stunned, he could hardly believe his eyes.

To go from Eighth-Rank Early Stage 93% to Eighth Grade Mid Stage 8% would have taken him at least several months of diligent practice with his previous cultivation speed.

But now?

It only took half an hour of practice!

Although it was partly due to the accumulated medicinal power deep within his body, the fact that the Martial Saint Body could achieve this was still terrifying.

"Martial Saint Body, it truly is the Martial Saint Body!"

Lin Yi couldn't help but rejoice in his heart:

"As expected of a Peerless Talent Born Once in a Hundred Billion People!"

"One session of cultivation has increased my cultivation so rapidly. Even though I come from a humble background and severely lack cultivation resources, and I won't be able to maintain such a fast cultivation speed without the medicinal power in my body, I can still break through to Eighth Grade Late Stage in at most half a month."

"If I'm lucky during this half a month and can catch a few more thieves to earn some money to buy Qi and Blood Pills, my cultivation speed can be even faster!"

"At that time, I'll truly be invincible!"

With this thought, Lin Yi's eyes shone brightly.

Qi and Blood Pills were auxiliary foundational pills for martial artists on the Nine Provinces Continent.

Their medicinal power was quite good. Each Qi and Blood Pill Lin Yi consumed was equivalent to about three days of hard cultivation for him.

And that was even with his poor aptitude, where most of the medicinal power was wasted.

If it were the Martial Saint Body, whose absorption efficiency was now heaven-defying, Lin Yi estimated that for every Qi and Blood Pill he consumed, it would probably be equivalent to at least half a month or even longer of his previous arduous cultivation.

Therefore, with enough Qi and Blood Pills to assist him, his cultivation speed was simply unimaginable!

"However, a single Qi and Blood Pill normally sells for a full Five Taels of Silver. With our family's financial situation, I estimate we'd be lucky to use eight or nine a month."

"If we used more, the family might not even be able to make ends meet."

"And besides that, ever since evolving the first talent, the silver needed to recharge my Attribute Panel seems to have increased as well."

Thinking of this, Lin Yi looked at the recharge amount on his Attribute Panel, and his face couldn't help but turn bitter.

He had used all Eighty Taels of Silver this time to recharge his Attribute Panel. Excluding the Sixty-Eight Taels of Silver consumed to reach 100% charge previously, the remaining Twelve Taels should theoretically have allowed the Attribute Panel's recharge progress to reach 0.6%.

But now, the Attribute Panel only showed 0.3%, merely half of the theoretical value.

Calculating it this way, to reach 100% recharge progress again would require double the previous amount, which was a full Four Thousand Taels of Silver!

And Four Thousand Taels?

Even if Lin Yi's family didn't eat or drink, it would take at least Five to Six Years to save up this amount, not to mention the cost of cultivation...

"Sigh! Poor! Poor! So poor!"
