Why Were the Second Stages Unlocked by Blood Consumption and Jiu Huo Different?
A system notification tone was then emitted.
In an instant.
I clearly felt the effects of the four Cultivation Method my body being enhanced: Blood Consumption, Jiu Huo, Sanyu, and Frenzy Blood!
Su Zhan felt it most clearly.
His entire body—flesh, bones, meridians—underwent a significant strengthening!
The golden luster that her skin already possessed was now noticeably enhanced.
"The effect has doubled... No wonder the cost was so high. With this effect, we have to go for it no matter the cost!"
Su Zhan was excited.
Even more exciting than when this new feature was unlocked!
I thought that Cultivation Enhancement would only increase it by 10% or 20%, which would be quite a lot... but it started at 100%, without any hesitation!
It's true that you get what you pay for.
The cost is high, but the returns are also incredibly high!
Sanyu: "Boss, I feel like I've become so much stronger!"
Blood Consumption: "We all felt it too, a doubled boost!"
Jiu Huo: "I feel that with our current strength and defense, we can definitely go head-to-head with low-level Beginner Martial General!"
Frenzy Blood: "Sorry, I'm already going all out!"
All the Cultivation Method: "... Awesome!"
Su Zhan: "Frenzy Blood, how's the effect?"
Frenzy Blood: "My strength hasn't changed much, but my defense has doubled. Before, I was struggling to parry attacks from Beginner Martial General... Now I'm much more relaxed! I estimate the power has been reduced by at least 50%!"
That's enough.
This effect.
That's more than enough!
The key point is that this isn't a temporary buff, but a permanent enhancement!
"This means that when the Sanyu reach the Lesser Completion Minor Accomplishment, the power of that Minor Accomplishment doubles... and when it reaches the Perfection, the Perfection doubles again! If it is subsequently upgraded to the Earth Grade or something similar, it can inherit all the enhancement multipliers!"
"Furthermore, by continuing to invest materials and enhance it, it's entirely possible to increase it to 500%, 1000%, or even 10000%!"
"When it really reaches that point, the Cultivation Method itself will allow you to fight opponents of higher levels!"
Su Zhan was filled with excitement.
It's true that Elite Grade is comparable to Earth Grade, Earth Grade is comparable to Heaven Grade, Heaven Grade is comparable to King Rank... If the enhancement is a bit more aggressive, it's possible to cross two levels!
"Unlimited enhancement means unlimited possibilities!"
"Let's see if we can Enhancement +2!"
He clicked again on the Enhancement Materials needed for the "Gilded Jade Body".
The expected increase was in quantity.
The grade has been upgraded.
The range of materials required has also expanded.
The difficulty has increased significantly compared to before, but it's still within a reasonable range... However, it certainly won't be easy to collect them all in a short time.
Immediately, Su Zhan quickly pulled up the long-unused Character Attribute Panel:
Host: Su Zhan
Realm: Advanced Martial Artist
Elite Grade Technique, "Sunfire Qi and Blood Art" (Intermediate Grade): 1997x [Cultivation Method Avatar - Stage 19] [Cultivation Sharing]
Elite Grade Technique, "Nine Heavens Thunder Fire Saber" (Advanced): 1868x [Cultivation Method Avatar - Stage 18] [Cultivation Sharing] [Weapon Repair]
Elite Grade Technique, "Gilded Jade Body" (+1) (Advanced): 2385x [Cultivation Method -Avatar Stage 23] [Cultivation Sharing] [Cultivation Summon]
Elite Grade Technique, "Bloodthirsty Rampage" (Advanced): 2002x [Cultivation Method Avatar - Stage 20] [Cultivation Sharing] [Cultivation Enhancement]
Earth Grade Technique, "Universe Wind Thunder Concealment" (Primary Grade): 1129x [Cultivation Method Avatar - Stage 11] [Cultivation Dispatch]
The multipliers all reached a thousand or two thousand times.
The names of the functions listed after each Cultivation Method are quite long.
However, the most eye-catching thing is the (+1) enhancement mark after "Gilded Jade Body"... Every 1 point increase in this number means a 100% increase, barring any unforeseen circumstances!
If every Cultivation Method were given a +10 or +20 boost, the effect would be terrifying...
I bet I'll be laughing in my sleep!
Su Zhan couldn't help but laugh.
This thing, it looks pleasing to the eye!
Not only that.
The Blood Consumption is already 1997 times, and new features will be unlocked soon... I wonder what exciting features he'll unlock this time?
Jiu Huo is almost here too. Just one more Intermediate Spirit Artifact, and it will be able to boost the power by 2000 times in no time, bringing new additional functions!
Just then...
Blood Consumption: "Boss, I'm going to reach 2000 times!"
Jiu Huo: "It's here! The moment everyone's been waiting for has arrived!"
Sanyu: "Wow, the boss's 2000x power is coming soon!"
The Cultivation Method all became excited.
"Ding! The 'Sunfire Qi and Blood Art' has reached a 2000x cultivation acceleration, unlocking [Cultivation Method -Avatar Stage 20]!"
"Ding! Due to the Cultivation Multiplier of 'Sunfire Qi and Blood Art' reaching 2000 times, an additional new function has been unlocked: [Weapon Repair - Stage Two]!"
"[Weapon Repair - Stage Two]: A Clones capable of repairing Weapons is created, with twice the Qi and Blood Value of the host!"
Weapon Repair... isn't its only function, and it even has a second stage?!
Su Zhan surprised.
He had thought that Weapon Repair was a single, unique function that could only be unlocked by one Cultivation Method and was not upgradable, while his Qi and Blood Value would increase as his True Self improved... But the reality was far beyond his expectations!
No.
As soon as the system notification sounded, a brand new Repair Clone appeared next to the original Repair Clone... its appearance was exactly the same as the Blood Consumption.
Su Zhan glanced at it and saw that the second Repair Clone's current Qi and Blood Value was 9700!
"The doubled boost from the 'Gilded Jade Body' also increased my Qi and Blood Value by several hundred... Even that little bit of Qi and Blood Value has doubled!"
"So now the total amount of Qi and Blood I can use to repair each day is 4850 + 9700 = 14550 points!"
"At 400 points per Beginner Spirit Artifact, I can repair 36!"
Su Zhan's eyes flashed, "The key is the Intermediate Spirit Artifact... we can try to repair it!"
Blood Consumption: "Boss, sorry, the features I unlocked are a bit disappointing."
Jiu Huo: "Barely satisfactory?! Brother, I suspect you're targeting me."
Sanyu: "Big brother, you can't be this modest. Second brother unlocking the first tier already made the eldest brother a fortune... and you've unlocked the second tier, which is basically double the fortune!"
Frenzy Blood: "Boss, send him over there. I'm going to kill this pretentious bastard."
Lei Yin: "Yes, I want to take a hit too!"
Su Zhan: "Get ready, I'll send you there right now!"
Blood Consumption: "No, no, no, I was wrong, I was wrong."
Upon hearing what the Cultivation Method said, Blood Consumption, who had been somewhat depressed, instantly brightened up.
Su Zhan knew that Blood Consumption felt his function was inferior because he was comparing it to other new functions... In comparison, everyone else was so awesome, with instant teleportation, instant summoning, and direct enhancement... His was clearly Lower Vehicle.
But it was only when Sanyu said "two full bowls" that he realized how useful his function was!
"Still young..."
Su Zhan smiled. "Come on, let's repair an Intermediate Spirit Artifact and see how much Qi and Blood it requires. While we're at it, let's also forge out 2000 times the power of Jiu Huo!"
At a command.
The second Repair Clone immediately picked up a hammer and got to work.
Three minutes later.
The conclusion is: an Intermediate Spirit Artifact consumes approximately 5000 points of Qi and Blood!
"Really!"
"Using my previous repair method, without a second source of Qi and Blood, this thing simply cannot be repaired!"
Su Zhan shook his head, then called out, "Jiu Huo, we can eat now!"
Jiu Huo: "Thank you, boss!!"
"Ding! The Nine Heavens Thunder Fire Saber has reached 2000x cultivation acceleration, unlocking [Cultivation Method -Avatar Stage 20]!"
"Ding! Due to the Cultivation Multiplier of the Nine Heavens Thunder Fire Saber reaching 2000 times, an additional new function has been unlocked: [Weapon Repair - Stage Two]!"
No other new features were introduced.
It's still the second phase of Weapon Repair.
This result is entirely within the reasonable range.
At this moment.
Another new system notification popped up:
"[Weapon Repair - Stage Two]: The Qi and Blood required to repair Weapons will be permanently halved from the current level!"
What?!
What the heck?!
Aren't they all just the second stage of unlocking?
The results are different?!
