Compared to before, the cultivation techniques section is much cleaner now, with only four techniques remaining.
In particular, the Lin Clan Cultivation Technique and the Nine Nether Soul Devouring Art have reached the Mythic Rank of perfection.
"Fortunately, the cultivation technique I forged using the Cultivation Technique Furnace reached perfection immediately; otherwise, a Mythic Rank cultivation technique would have cost me over seven million attribute points," Lin An said.
"I've now reached the Epic Realm, and my secondary profession can also be upgraded to Legendary Rank."
"However, upgrading from Epic Tier to Legendary Rank requires 700,000 attribute points, and ten sub-classes would require 7 million attribute points. Let's upgrade the Array Master and Puppeteer to Legendary Rank for now."
"Then comes the cultivation techniques; I need to learn a few Legendary Rank techniques."
Lin An thought for a moment and immediately continued to invest attribute points.
[You have consumed 700,000 attribute points, raising your Formation Master proficiency to Legendary Rank.]
[You have consumed 700,000 attribute points, raising your Puppet Master proficiency to Legendary Rank.]
[You have become the first Legendary Rank formation master in the entire server, and have received an additional reward: 3 Divine Ability Upgrade Stone.]
[You have become the first Legendary Rank puppeteer in the entire server, and have received an additional reward: 3 Divine Ability Upgrade Stone.]
[Server-wide announcement:...]
A series of notification sounds rang out, and Lin An took out all the Divine Ability Upgrade Stone, a total of 11.
"Perfect timing to upgrade the Spirit Devouring Divine Ability again."
Lin An smiled and upgraded immediately.
[You have consumed 10 Divine Ability Upgrade Stone, and your Divine Ability Spirit Devouring effect has been enhanced.]
[ Divine Ability - Spirit Devouring ]: Your attacks are imbued with the power of devouring, capable of absorbing a portion of the opponent's energy and life force to restore your own injuries, stamina, and spiritual power. Furthermore, when the target dies, there is a certain chance that the absorbed energy will be used to enhance your own cultivation level.
His Spirit Devouring Divine Ability has been upgraded again. Previously, he could only convert a small portion of the energy, but now he can directly use the absorbed energy to improve his own cultivation level, which has further increased his cultivation speed.
Lin An then tried to upgrade the Spirit Devouring Divine Ability, only to find that this time it required 50 Divine Ability Upgrade Stone.
"This leap is so huge. Could it be that if I improve again, I can reach the limit of my Divine Ability power?" Lin An wondered to himself.
He still has eight secondary professions that haven't reached the Legendary Rank Legendary Rank. Even if he could get another 24 Divine Ability Upgrade Stone, it still wouldn't be enough to upgrade the Spirit Devouring Divine Ability.
"It seems that I can only upgrade Spirit Devouring again once these secondary professions reach Mythic Rank."
Lin An shook his head. Reaching the Mythic Rank in his secondary profession was still a long way off. The main issue was that it would definitely require a lot of attribute points, and he would have to work hard to earn those points later.
After carefully storing the remaining Divine Ability Upgrade Stone, Lin An closed the panel and returned to the exchange hall.
He planned to learn a movement technique and a defensive skill for protection, but he didn't need to learn swordsmanship anymore.
In the end, Lin An chose two Legendary Rank martial arts techniques: the " Nine Heavens Sky-Treading Steps " and the " Legendary Rank Purple Sun Battle Armor ".
Legendary Rank cultivation techniques require 760,000 attribute points from beginner to mastery, and Lin An spent 1,520,000 attribute points on just two techniques.
While it's not a small amount, it's relatively few compared to the attribute points required for Mythic Rank cultivation techniques.
After all this spending, Lin An only had 365,500 attribute points left.
"I spent a month grinding for attribute points, and it all came back to square one in a single day."
Lin An sighed helplessly; no matter how many attribute points he had, they were never enough.
"Let Zheng Tang keep an eye out for any Epic Tier Spirit Realm that are about to open within the entire Heavenly Vault Army."
"Besides that, it's just a matter of continuing to cultivate."
Lin An glanced at the Spirit-Devouring Ring, which contained a thousand Epic Tier Sin Beast being refined, along with a huge ball of spiritual energy.
"I wonder what level I'll reach after absorbing this ball of spiritual energy."
Thinking it over, Lin An immediately entered a meditative state and began absorbing the spiritual energy Spirit-Devouring Ring Devouring Ring.
A day passed quickly.
When the last wisp of spiritual energy in the Spirit-Devouring Ring was absorbed by Lin An, Lin An opened his eyes.
Epic Second Grade.
Sensing his own cultivation level, Lin An couldn't help but frown.
I thought I could at least reach Epic Third Grade, but I only got Epic Second Grade.
It should be noted that during this period Spirit-Devouring Ring had refined at least five or six thousand Epic Tier Sin Beast corpses, yet it only allowed him to advance by one rank.
"After reaching the Epic Realm, the spiritual energy required for each advancement has increased dramatically. In addition, I have undergone four Marrow Cleansing and Meridian Refining processes, making breakthroughs even more difficult."
"That's not bad either. My cultivation speed has increased a thousandfold. One day of cultivation for me is equivalent to a thousand days for others. With enough resources, I can break through to the first rank in just a few days."
Thinking about it this way, Lin An felt that it was worth spending a lot of attribute points to max out the Lin Clan Cultivation Technique.
He even felt that breaking through to the next level in a single day wasn't impossible, if one didn't consider one's foundation, but he wouldn't do it.
Thinking it over, Lin An immediately sent a message to Zheng Tang, informing her that he needed a large amount of the Epic Realm cultivation resources.
"Young Master has broken through to the Epic Realm?"
Zheng Tang was surprised, but also felt it was normal, since he had seen Lin An reach the Diamond Ninth Grade before, and it was only a matter of time before he broke through.
"However, young master's cultivation speed is truly impressive. He arrived at Heavenly Vault Pass in January, and it's only May now. In just four short months, he has advanced from the Platinum Realm to the Epic Realm."
"At this rate, wouldn't it take less than a year to reach the Mythic Realm?"
Zheng Tang thought to himself, "No wonder he's the king's grandson; his talent is truly monstrous."
Without wasting any time, they prepared a large amount of resources for Lin An to cultivate to the Epic Realm.
After receiving these resources, Lin An resumed his cultivation.
With the cultivation speed increased a thousandfold, he rapidly refined pills, and his cultivation realm also improved at a breakneck pace.
