When he walked out of Zhao Shengying's house, Lu Sheng was already holding a grayish-black gem that glowed with purple light.
This was a purple silver stone. Any official resident of a main city could transfer most of their assets into it.
This item was not a storage treasure, but due to its high value, it could roughly record stable energy veins. That was why it was used as a storage card.
The one in Lu Sheng's hand was the pay stone that contained two hundred thousand ice money.
Zhao Shengying was not mature, and she was a flower in a greenhouse. She had clearly been tricked into believing it.
However, Lu Sheng did not really intend to change her into a special physique with overdeveloped muscles. If he really did that, Zhao Shengying might be able to explain herself, but the Zhao Family was no idiot.
When he stepped out of the house, he already sensed at least a dozen terrifyingly powerful gazes sweeping past him.
He lightly tossed the purple silver stone in his hand. Lu Sheng's lips curled up slightly. He was in a great mood. He put the item away and walked forward along the street. After a few forks in the road, he quickly arrived at a bustling shopping area with a pointed roof.
The shops in the shopping area were filled with all sorts of advertisement boards. They ranged from pills, formations, talismans, divine veins, divine weapons, secret treasures, information, artifacts, and so on.
However, there were no shouts on the street. There were only the occasional cries of the exotic beasts that the passing customers rode on.
Most of the customers entering and exiting the shops were in a hurry. Some of them hid their identities and wore black robes. Some of them had grim expressions as they looked around.
Lu Sheng walked slowly along the right side of the street for a while. He quickly locked onto a shop that sold special materials.
He randomly picked a shop and entered.
The next level of the Infinity Technique required a special material called a Law Path Stone. It was a Dark Yin Law Path Stone. This was the most suitable special material that Deep Blue had deduced based on Lu Sheng's memories.
The name of this shop was very casual. There were many people entering and exiting it. The entrance was not big either. It could only fit two people side by side.
Lu Sheng waited for the two long-sleeved scholars to come out before he walked in sideways.
Inside the shop was a greyish-white stone hall. Facing the main door were rows of small cubicles that were divided into single rooms.
This reminded Lu Sheng of the internet cafes on Earth. They were also densely packed into rows.
Each private room could only accommodate one person to stand and sit. It would be extremely cramped for two people to enter.
No one greeted them, and no one explained anything. They could only see many guests going in and out of these private rooms.
Lu Sheng glanced to his right and saw a white stone placed on the ground. There were a few lines of words engraved on the surface of the stone.
"Business is fair, and people are just."
"One room per person. Once you have made your choice, there will be no refunds."
Lu Sheng imitated the others and found a single room, pushing the door open and entering.
The grayish-white wooden door opened slowly. Then, after Lu Sheng entered, it slammed shut and locked behind him.
In the entire private room, there was only a triangular crystal mirror that was taller than a person.
Lines of tiny words and images of items appeared on the surface of the mirror.
"It really sells by itself?" Lu Sheng's interest was piqued. He walked to the front of the crystal mirror and moved his spirit slightly. The surface of the mirror immediately flickered rapidly with the light touch of his spirit.
Various items flashed quickly on the surface of the mirror. Lu Sheng only took a glance and immediately memorized the large amount of information displayed on the surface of the mirror.
After a brief glance, there were only 30 types of items in Random Fate House. The rest were all product information, and none of them were what he wanted.
After exiting the single room quickly, Lu Sheng went to another shop. It was still the same inside. No one greeted him, and there was only a stone slab that explained the rules and regulations erected in front of the door.
Here, customers were allowed to choose their own crystal mirror. There was no sound of bargaining, only the sound of hurried footsteps.
Soon, after walking through three shops, Lu Sheng found the Law Path Stone that he needed. Moreover, it was a special Law Path Stone that had been contaminated by Yin Qi. It was suitable for him.
The price was not expensive either. One piece only cost 1,500 ice money. Lu Sheng bought four pieces in a row and spent 6,000 ice money. He even became a Bronze Member of this shop called Black Eye Pond.
Then, he came out and bought some spare materials for setting up formations. Only then did he quickly return to his courtyard.
He had the materials, and his Mental Energy was definitely sufficient. Although his Spirit Power had not reached the requirements, Lu Sheng was confident in Deep Blue.
That night, he decided to attempt a breakthrough.
…
…
Nighttime.
The house was unusually quiet. Faint blood-red lines could be seen flashing in the darkness on the ground of the courtyard.
Occasionally, translucent distortions could be faintly seen on the courtyard's door and walls.
"Bam."
Lu Sheng closed the door and pressed lightly on it.
With a swoosh, a blood-red palm print appeared and shone. It was embedded in the center of the door.
Lu Sheng lowered his head and formed dozens of hand seals with lightning speed.
"Rise!"
He suddenly shouted in a low voice.
In an instant, the entire room buzzed. Countless pale green silk nets lit up. These nets floated in the air and enveloped every inch of the space.
The nets shone for a few breaths. Then, they quickly dimmed, became transparent, and disappeared.
Only then did Lu Sheng release his hand seals. He turned around and walked to the center of the room.
A small black formation about three meters wide had already been set up there. Two green rhombus-shaped crystals that were half the height of a person were inserted into the ground on both sides of the formation. Faint golden radiance flowed within the crystals.
Lu Sheng sat in the center of the formation. He closed his eyes and focused.
'Deep Blue,' he called out in his heart.
With a swoosh, the pale blue frame popped up.
The first frame that entered his eyes was the first. It was the main cultivation method of the Infinity Technique.
'Infinity Technique, sixth tier, Tracing Source. Tracing Source, first tier, heart image. (Special traits. Heart Devil World, Eight-Headed Devil Art, Time Freeze, powerful spirit, nature deceiving …) '
'The Infinity Technique has unlimited potential. Alas, it's too vague. Without enough theories to fill in the gaps, it's difficult for me to advance … The prospects of the other cultivation methods are too limited …' As he looked at this main cultivation method, Lu Sheng felt helpless. The further he progressed, the greater the limitations of the Infinity Technique became. Not only was the increase in each tier extremely slow, he had to test the various materials he needed on his own.
Even the Law Path Stone that was used this time was only suitable for use. It was hard to say if it was really suitable and could bring out the potential of this level to the limit.
However, Lu Sheng did not have the capital to get his hands on the other main cultivation methods. Even the Infinity Technique was derived by combining countless true martial skills. It was the culmination of his own martial path. 'The cultivation methods of the Red Moon Disciples can only be used as a reference. What a pity. If I could really get my hands on a complete main cultivation method, I wouldn't have to go through so much trouble.' He sighed. Even though he felt helpless, he still had to make a breakthrough.
Lu Sheng calmed himself down and reached out.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh!
With three consecutive sounds, three pure white Law Path Stones suddenly shot out from the corners of the room. They circled around him slowly.
Lu Sheng flicked his finger. Three invisible forces instantly shattered the Law Path Stones. They silently turned into a large amount of white powder that drifted down.
"Hiss …"
He took a deep breath. The large amount of white powder seemed to be drawn in by a whirlpool. It spun and danced as it entered his mouth.
As he inhaled the powder, he quickly pressed the modify button under the Modifier. Then, his gaze fell on the derive button behind the Infinity Technique.
"Derive Infinity Technique, increase by one tier."
"Pst!"
Almost at the instant he confirmed it, the frame suddenly blurred.
Ten breaths … twenty breaths …
One minute … Two minutes …
In the blink of an eye, more than ten minutes had passed.
Lu Sheng maintained his upright posture, not moving an inch.
Finally, the frame slowly became clear.
"Infinity Technique, level-six — Tracing Source. Tracing Source Level 2: Heart Path."
Lu Sheng glanced at the special section at the back. The contents were mostly the same as before. There were not many changes.
He carefully felt the changes in his body and spirit.
There was no qualitative change, but he could clearly feel that the total volume of his spirit was increasing rapidly.
"Another gradual change? That's not bad. "
His physical body was not affected much. Perhaps this cultivation method originated from the Heavenly Devil World, which was not good at Body Tempering.
In fact, the enhancement of his physical body from this derivation was not as great as the enhancement he obtained from fusing his physical body into his main body in the previous world.
'According to the information in the cultivation method, I should be able to reach the peak of the Weapon Grandmaster rank this time. My spirit should be able to reach the threshold of qualitative change and reach a stage where it can no longer be improved. Next time, I should be able to step into the Confusion Realm. '
Lu Sheng quickly flipped through the information in Deep Blue's derivation of the cultivation method. These three Law Path Stones had largely filled in the gaps in the natural rules of his Heart Image Space.
They were extremely beneficial to his Heart Image World.
After filling in this gap, Deep Blue could then use special channels to swiftly help Lu Sheng temper and strengthen his spirit.
After that, he did not go anywhere else. For the next five days, apart from helping Zhao Luoying purify the heavy planet pollutants, he spent the rest of his time in his courtyard adapting to the changes in his spirit.
On the sixth day, his spirit finally stopped growing and stabilized.
'My spirit has grown by about four times …' Lu Sheng came to this surprising conclusion after inspecting himself in his room.
'But my body is seriously lagging behind. Even with the Instant Destruction Fist Art from the previous world, it still can't keep up with the growth of my spirit.
'The Infinity Technique was originally the main body, but it gradually became the main spirit.' He stood up in the formation and glanced at his Mental Energy expenditure. He immediately smiled bitterly.
It would have been fine if he was only improving his cultivation method. However, he was not only improving it, but also deriving it. The expenditure of deriving a cultivation method of this level was unimaginably high.
His Mental Energy units of more than 10 million were instantly reduced by more than 5 million …
'Actually, it's quite worth it. These 5 million Mental Energy units are equivalent to me catching up to what others have accumulated over thousands or even tens of thousands of years in just a few days.' Lu Sheng understood this as well. However, he still felt a slight pain in his heart when he saw the Mental Energy he had just obtained shrink by half in the blink of an eye.
'If I'm only improving my cultivation method, I definitely wouldn't have used up so much!' Lu Sheng felt a pang in his heart. He remembered the Red Moon Disciples' Crimson River cultivation method. However, this cultivation method's rank was too low. It would be impossible for him to obtain a Weapon Raising cultivation method in the near future.
He stood up and did a simple check on the formation. Then, he opened the window and changed the exhaust gas in the room.
If he went any further, he would reach the Confusion Realm. However, he did not find the derive button behind the modifier.
This meant that with his current knowledge and martial path experience, he was not able to derive a powerful strength above Weapon Raising like the Confusion Realm.
