A full week had passed since the incident with Thunderburst. During that week, Huo Hai had nothing much to do. His days were exceptionally leisurely, apart from Blood Rose pestering him every day.
Most of the time, Huo Hai quietly cultivated his spiritual power. Ever since his liquid spiritual power had reached the standard of the peak Spirit General realm, he had sensed certain changes within himself. Now, not only was he qualified to condense solid spiritual power, but even the rate at which his liquid spiritual power increased had inexplicably risen considerably.
Unfortunately, his cultivation progressed fastest only at night. He had to absorb the starlight spilling down from the sky and merge it with his own spiritual power to form stellar spiritual power. Since he still could not break through, Huo Hai could not condense any new star cores, either.
All he could do was watch his liquid spiritual power grow stronger day by day. After a week, Huo Hai finally filled one of his spirit vein cycles completely. This was one of the earliest spirit vein cycles to have formed in his body.
It was not just the main spirit vein. Completely filling it meant filling the main vein along with all the tiny branches around it, even the offshoots of those branches. With these tiny spirit veins linked together, Huo Hai actually discovered that the circuit of a single spirit vein encompassed his entire body. He truly had not noticed this before.
It was effectively one large cycle. Once this cycle was fully formed, Huo Hai immediately felt his spiritual power recovery rate increase geometrically. The speed at which he condensed liquid spiritual power also seemed to have risen considerably.
"If this rate increased seventy-twofold, wouldn't my spiritual power become inexhaustible?" Huo Hai muttered to himself
