Huge Improvement

But afterward, once the number of mana flowers He Song condensed exceeded ten,

the time required to condense each mana flower became longer than that needed for the one before it.

For this reason, He Song spent a full three or four years afterward before barely managing to add another five mana flowers to his original ten.

By He Song's estimate, if he wished to increase the number of mana flowers he had condensed to twenty, he would likely need to enter seclusion for several more years.

And if he wished to increase the number of mana flowers he condensed beyond twenty afterward,

the time required would surely be even greater.

However, He Song had long been mentally prepared for this.

The further one cultivated the Hundred Flowers Secret Technique, the more astonishing its power became.

Every mana flower could increase the power of the Hundred Flowers Secret Technique by quite a bit.

Under such circumstances, it was only natural that cultivating the Hundred Flowers Secret Technique became increasingly difficult the further one progressed.

After all, if the time needed to condense each mana flower while cultivating the Hundred Flowers Secret Technique had been roughly the same, and not particularly long,

then this Hundred Flowers Secret Technique would likely never have fallen into He Song's hands.

Instead, it would probably have become the sect-defending treasure of some enormous power.

With such a secret technique in hand, every disciple of that great power would likely make it their primary cultivation technique.

Although the Hundred Flowers Secret Technique was not powerful when first cultivated,

after many years of continuous cultivation, its power would far surpass ordinary Golden Core spells.

If cultivating it truly had not been difficult, as described above,

then it likely could not have ended up adrift and been learned
