In the early morning of the next day, when the sky was slightly bright, Fang Han had already checked out and left the inn, embarking on the journey again.
In the afternoon, on the distant horizon, the familiar towering silhouette of Azure Profound Mountain is already visible.
The mountains are continuous, and the main peak at the highest point reaches straight into the sky, making it majestic.
He did not return directly to the mountain gate, but changed direction and headed towards Azure Profound City at the foot of the mountain.
Azure Profound City is still bustling and noisy, with busy traffic and a steady flow of people.
After entering the city, he walked into a bank named "Huitong Treasury". The shopkeeper behind the counter saw that Fang Han had a calm demeanor and was wearing the uniform of a Azure Profound Sect disciple. He did not dare to neglect and quickly stood up to greet him.
"What does this young master need?"
Fang Han took out a stack of silver notes from his arms and said calmly, "Shopkeeper, exchange these 20,000 taels of silver notes into gold."
"Twenty thousand taels?"
When the shopkeeper heard this, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes. Such a large amount of exchange was not common.
He carefully checked the authenticity and amount of the banknote. After confirming that it was correct, the smile on his face became even brighter.
"Sir, please wait a moment. The amount is large and needs to be transferred from the warehouse. Please go to the inner room and have tea while you wait."
Fang Han nodded slightly and followed the shopkeeper into the inner room.
After about a stick of incense, a waiter came in carrying a heavy Cloth Pouch and opened it. Inside was a yellow gold ingot that shone brightly under the light.
Fang Han checked the quality and weight and confirmed that they were correct, then repackaged the gold ingots and left Huitong Treasury.
Later, he followed the same pattern and exchanged 20,000 taels of silver notes into gold at three other banks.
The reason why it is not exchanged at one time, but divided into four banks, is to avoid being too eye-catching and being coveted.
The results were good, and there was no tracking or the like.
Of course, it is also possible that the Azure Profound Sect disciple uniform on his body has a deterrent effect. After all, this is where Azure Profound Sect is standing.
Carrying Cloth Pouch filled with gold, Fang Han stopped stopping and quickly walked out of Azure Profound City, heading towards the Azure Profound Sect mountain gate.
The majestic mountain gate came into view, and the disciples guarding the mountain inspected Identity Jade Token before letting him go.
Fang Han walked quickly up the familiar bluestone steps and returned directly to Zi Courtyard Room C-7.
Pushing open the door, a faint smell of dust hit my face. After leaving for more than half a month, a thin layer of dust had fallen on the table, chairs and bed.
He put down his luggage and wooden boxes and called a handyman who was cleaning nearby.
"Clean the room carefully."
"Yes, senior brother Fang Han!"
The handyman recognized Fang Han and did not dare to neglect. He quickly got the tools and started cleaning quickly.
Fang Han put down the bag of gold and stood in front of the window, looking at the familiar scenery outside the window and waiting quietly.
After the handyman finished cleaning and respectfully left, Fang Han bolted the door and checked the window again to make sure it was correct.
He walked to the center of the room, and with a thought, he called out System Panel.
The translucent light curtain quietly unfolded, and the data emerged clearly:
[Host: Fang Han]
[Root Bone Talent Amplification: 32 times (the sixth level of increase requires 1 million silver)]
[Sword Art Talent Amplification: 16 times (the fifth level increase requires 100,000 silver)]
[Footwork Talent Amplification: 16 times (the fifth level of increase requires 100,000 silver)]
[Possessed Wealth:27512 silver]
His eyes fell on the "Possessed Wealth" column, and a trace of expectation flashed in Fang Han's eyes.
"Recharge."
He reached out and touched the gold, focusing his thoughts on the bag of gold.
"Whoosh!"
The gold in the box disappeared instantly.
The wealth value on System Panel began to jump rapidly.
[Possessed Wealth:47512 silver]
[Possessed Wealth:67512 silver]
[Possessed Wealth:87512 silver]
In the end, the numbers settled on a new level:
[Possessed Wealth:107512 silver]
One hundred seventy-seven thousand five hundred and twelve taels!
The wealth he possesses has once again exceeded one hundred thousand, and he can once again activate a five-level increase in talent.
"Sword Art Talent and Footwork Talent..."
Fang Han's eyes became hot, and his eyes slowly swept between the two columns [Sword Art Talent Amplification] and [Footwork Talent Amplification].
In terms of its importance in actual combat, footwork is related to life, death and maneuverability, and it is by no means inferior to Sword Technique.
However, there is a very real problem right now. The resource allocation of the sect, especially the monthly contribution reward, is based on the ranking of Martial Dao Stele.
What Martial Dao Stele tested was the power of attack!
The improvement of Sword Art Talent will undoubtedly enhance his attack power more directly and effectively, thereby achieving a higher ranking on Martial Dao Stele and obtaining more contribution points rewards.
More contribution points mean that more resources can be exchanged, which accelerates cultivation and forms a virtuous cycle.
"At this stage, if you upgrade Sword Art Talent, the benefits will be greater."
Fang Han quickly made a decision in his mind.
His consciousness was focused on the option behind [Sword Art Talent Amplification] that said "the fifth level increase requires 100,000 silver", and he thought silently in his mind.
"Turn on!"
In an instant, the wealth value on System Panel dropped sharply by one hundred thousand!
[Possessed Wealth:7512 silver]
The text in the [Sword Art Talent Amplification] column was blurry for a while, and then became clear:
[Sword Art Talent Amplification: 32 times (the sixth level of increase requires 1 million silver)]
Thirty-two times Sword Art Talent Amplification, open!
There are no earth-shattering visions. It is obvious that the effect of this amplification change is similar to that of an amplifier, and can only be manifested when practicing Sword Technique.
"Try the effect!"
Fang Han couldn't wait to mention Azure Edge Sword, pushed out the door, and came to the area Forest Clearing where he usually practiced.
The open space is lonely, and the early spring sunshine shines through the bare branches, casting mottled light and shadow.
He took a deep breath, got rid of distracting thoughts, and Azure Edge Sword suddenly came out of its sheath!
"Shuashuashua--"
Wherever the sword light starts, <Wind Splitting Sword Technique> unfolds naturally.
On the first day of practice, Fang Han immediately realized the astonishing effect of the thirty-two times increase.
The understanding of "Wind Momentum" quickly became profound. As the sword wind roared, the meaning of tearing everything apart quickly became condensed, as if the air around the sword blade was trembling and wailing slightly.
Sword Art, who has reached the level of Greater Accomplishment and whose progress has been slow, is now practicing and can clearly detect the subtle flaws that were ignored in the past and can quickly find ways to improve.
The efficiency of cultivation is more than doubled!
"At this rate, in half a month at most, <Wind Splitting Sword Technique> will definitely be able to the Perfection Realm!"
Fang Han put away his sword and stood up, his eyes bursting with bright light.
According to the current speed of understanding, he has absolute confidence to push this door Medium Grade Sword Technique to the Perfection Realm within half a month.
However, apart from the joy, a new worry also emerged.
"<Wind Splitting Sword Technique> If Perfection Realm wants to continue to improve, he needs to practice High Grade Sword Technique... To exchange for a High Grade Sword Technique, the contribution required is not a small amount."
He frowned slightly.
There is a huge gap in the contribution value required for redemption between low-grade sect martial arts, Medium Grade, and High Grade.
A Medium Grade Sword Technique only costs about one hundred contribution points, but a High Grade Sword Technique easily requires thousands of contribution points!
His Identity Jade Token currently only has more than 100 contribution points, which is quite a long way from redeeming a High Grade Sword Technique.
"Even adding this month's ranking rewards is not enough. It seems that we must find a way to earn more contribution points before Sword Technique Perfection Realm!"
Fang Han thought in his heart.
After practicing, Fang Han returned to his residence, briefly wiped the sweat off his body, and had just put on a pair of clean clothes when the sound of rapid footsteps and a familiar call came from outside the door.
"Fang Han! Fang Han Are you there?"
It's the voice of Xiao Chen.
Fang Han opened the door and saw Xiao Chen standing outside the door eagerly.
"Fang Han, Li Feng's cultivation has broken through to the late Grade Eight stage. I just went to the Martial Dao Stele test, and the ranking has surpassed you, returning to second place!"
Xiao Chen saw Fang Han and said quickly. He spoke very quickly with a hint of anxiety.
"Tomorrow is the day when contribution points are distributed after the annual leave. If you don't want to only receive the third-ranked reward, you have to go to Martial Dao Stele Re-test quickly!"
"Thank you for reminding me, otherwise I might have forgotten it!"
Fang Han was slightly startled when he heard this.
If Xiao Chen hadn't come to remind him, he would have forgotten to go to Martial Dao Stele Re-test as he was immersed in the pleasure of Sword Art Talent's improvement.
"Come on, let me open my eyes."
Xiao Chen joked.
He has heard rumors that Fang Han's cultivation level has broken through to Seventh Rank, so what he is looking forward to is not that Fang Han will surpass Li Feng again, but that Fang Han will take a further step in the ranking and win the first place.
"Okay."
Fang Han and Xiao Chen went to the square where Martial Dao Stele was.
On the way, I met many disciples. When they saw Fang Han, their eyes were a little complicated and they talked in low voices.
"Fang Han is back?"
"Li Feng broke through the late stage of Grade Eight and returned to second place. Fang Han may have to settle for third place."
"The third one is also very impressive..."
Fang Han listened to it, and his expression remained as usual.
Xiao Chen curled his lips in dissatisfaction, but seeing that Fang Han didn't care, he didn't say much.
The two of them walked slowly and soon arrived at the square.
The huge Martial Dao Stele stands in the center of the square, shining with a warm luster under the winter sun.
At this time, there were many disciples in the square, all coming to test whether they had made progress. When they saw Fang Han arriving, many eyes turned towards him.
Fang Han turned a blind eye to the eyes around him and walked straight to Martial Dao Stele to stand a few feet in front of him.
Xiao Chen automatically stepped aside, holding his breath and staring at Fang Han with burning eyes.
Under the gaze of everyone, Fang Han slowly closed his eyes, adjusted his breathing, and calmed down.
After a few breaths, his eyes suddenly opened!
"Qiang!"
Azure Edge Sword unsheathed the weapon and let out a clear sword cry.
At the same time, a wave of Internal Qi, far more majestic and deeper than Eighth Grade Martial Artist, burst out from his body without reservation.
Seven places Acupoints are connected, Internal Qi is flowing like a river!
"Seventh Rank! It's the Seventh Grade Internal Qi realm!"
"Oh my God! Fang Han... has broken through Seventh Rank?!"
Sensing this completely different and tyrannical aura, the onlookers suddenly erupted into unbelievable exclamations. Many people's eyes suddenly widened, and their faces were filled with shock and disbelief.
One year! Beginner stage In just one year, go directly from Ninth-rank early stage to Seventh Rank!
What a terrifying cultivation speed is this?!
Even Xiao Chen, who had already heard that Fang Han had broken through to Seventh Rank, now felt the powerful aura of Fang Han's Seventh Rank state, and his heart could not help but beat violently, and he clenched his fists with excitement.
