The Spirit Energy in his body surged and attacked the barrier of his Spirit Aperture.
With a soft sound, the barrier broke and the Spirit Energy flowed into the newly opened Spirit Aperture.
Lu Ye had been in the Inner Circle for thirty days and had opened two hundred and forty apertures.
It was time to change his Secret Art.
With a thought, the Minor Heavenly Cycle in his body slowly calmed down and the flowing Spirit Energy also began to calm down.
Every stagnation of the Minor Heavenly Cycle would cause Lu Ye's cultivation to drop a level.
Starting from the Ninth Order, to the Eighth Order, to the Seventh Order, to the Spirit Aperture, there was no longer any cycle.
Cultivators were very vulnerable when changing merit laws, just like Lu Ye's current situation. Although he had opened two hundred and forty spirit apertures, because these spirit apertures were not connected to each other and did not form a system, Lu Ye's strength was much weaker than before. If he was ambushed at this time, he would most likely die.
Therefore, when cultivators changed Secret Arts, they would generally choose a safe place.
After one last check of the Great Sun Coloured Glass Secret Art's circulation route, Lu Ye urged his Spirit Energy, starting from the Source Spirit Aperture, to go through the eighteen Spirit Apertures in a Minor Heavenly Cycle.
His cultivation returned to the First Order.
He urged his Spirit Energy again, starting from the nineteenth to the forty-fifth aperture.
His cultivation returned to the Second Order.
From the forty-sixth to seventy-second aperture, the Third Order.
From seventy-third to one hundred and eight apertures, the Fourth Order.
From one hundred and forty-fourth aperture, the Fifth Order.
From one hundred and eighty apertures, the Sixth Order.
From two hundred and forty apertures, the Seventh Order.
The level of a cultivator's cultivation was directly related to the number of Minor Heavenly Cycle systems in their body. Lu Ye was currently using a Heaven Grade Secret Art, so he had seven Minor Heavenly Cycles in his body, which meant he was in the Seventh Order.
However, in order to distinguish him from ordinary Seventh Order cultivators, the cultivators of the Nine States who had changed their Heaven Grade Secret Art were called Heaven Grade Seventh Order, or Heaven Grade Seventh Order, followed by Heaven Grade Eighth Order and Heaven Grade Ninth Order.
An ordinary Seventh Order cultivator only had one hundred and eight apertures, but a Heaven Grade Seventh Order cultivator had two hundred and forty apertures. The difference in the number of Spirit Apertures opened was more than twice that of an ordinary Seventh Order cultivator.
Therefore, although Lu Ye's cultivation seemed to have decreased, his strength was much stronger than before he changed Secret Art.
At this level of cultivation, Lu Ye could choose to advance to the Cloud River Realm at any time if he wanted to. If he did so, he would be the weakest Cloud River Realm cultivator, and it would be difficult for him to advance to the True Lake realm.
The more spiritual apertures one opened, the more powerful one would be after reaching Cloud River Realm, and the greater one's potential would be. Therefore, even if he had the qualifications to reach Cloud River Realm, Lu Ye would definitely not choose this path. His goal was to open three hundred and sixty apertures before reaching Cloud River Realm.
He believed that he had the ability to do so.
Lu Ye silently sensed the changes after changing his cultivation method.
The changes were still very obvious. Although there were two fewer small circulations in his body, the speed of the new small circulations was about twice as fast as before. Spiritual energy flowed through it like a river.
Furthermore, the number of spiritual cavities in each cycle was much more than before.
With the increase in the number of spiritual cavities and the faster the flow of spiritual energy, Lu Ye's instantaneous eruption of power would be even more powerful and concentrated.
Therefore, for a cultivator, converting a Heaven Grade Cultivation Method was a qualitative leap. Any cultivator who converted a Heaven Grade Cultivation Method would be able to increase their strength by at least 20% or even 40% or more.
This was the power of a Heaven Grade Cultivation Technique.
In particular, the Great Sun Colored Glass Secret Art that Lu Ye had bought was the most expensive Heaven-grade Cultivation Technique that was suitable for him. It was worth more than 5,000 merit points, and in the entire Spirit Stream Battlefield, there weren't many people who could afford such a Cultivation Technique.
Not only did this cultivation method greatly increase Lu Ye's strength, the spiritual energy flowing through his spiritual cavities even had a slight tempering effect. To put it simply, even if Lu Ye did nothing, as long as he maintained the cultivation method's circulation, the spiritual energy in his body would continue to circulate, strengthening his physique to a certain extent.
The Great Sun Coloured Glass Technique was expensive for a reason.
He took out a Spirit Accumulation Pill and swallowed it. Without using the Gluttonous Feast, the pill's effects were quickly digested.
After switching to the Heaven Grade Cultivation Technique, the speed of refining the pill had obviously increased, which meant that Lu Ye's cultivation efficiency had increased.
He swallowed a few more elixirs and checked the changes in his spiritual power. Finally, he came to a conclusion. At Tian Qi's level, if he only relied on elixirs, he would need to consume at least 45 elixirs for every Aperture he opened. This was an increase compared to before. However, because of the increase in cultivation efficiency, the time needed to open Apertures would not change much.
This was an advantage Lu Ye had since he started cultivating.
For other cultivators, the higher their cultivation, the slower their speed of improvement. This was because they needed to accumulate more, but Lu Ye's speed of opening apertures didn't slow down. Instead, it became faster and faster.
If he cultivated wholeheartedly in the encampment, opening one aperture a day wouldn't be a problem at all. If he worked hard, it was possible for him to open three apertures in two days.
He was only one hundred and twenty apertures away from three hundred and sixty apertures.
Lu Ye took out the Breath Fruit and poured his spirit energy into it. His mind entered the small space.
He looked around vigilantly. Very good, he didn't see that bastard from the Myriad Devil Ridge.
He didn't dare to stay for too long. He quickly spent fifty merit points and entered the mirage realm.
Killing in all directions! After his cultivation was promoted to Seventh Heaven, he felt that none of the enemies in the Mirage Realm could fight.
However, the mirage realm had its own way to deal with him. If one didn't work, there would be two. If two didn't work, there would be three. Anyway, Lu Ye would be killed in the end.
Half an hour later, Lu Ye opened his eyes.
The fight in the mirage realm allowed him to experience all kinds of benefits of switching to Heaven Level cultivation methods. The increase of his strength was obvious, and his control of his spirit energy had also greatly improved.
This was undoubtedly a good thing for a spiritual tattooist. The improvement of his control of spirit energy meant that it would be easier to construct spiritual tattoos.
It was time to set off again!
He had stayed back for a month and avoided the limelight. The material compensation from the Myriad Devil Ridge was also in place. Now that he had been promoted to Seventh Heaven, he couldn't stay in the encampment all the time.
As for how the Myriad Devil Ridge would react after he went out … It didn't matter.
After packing up a little, Lu Ye returned to the sect and visited Madam Yun. When he came back, there was a large number of books on spiritual tattoos in his storage bag.
After meeting the Second Senior Sister and learning that he was going to set off for the core circle, Shui Yuan didn't say much and just asked him to see the Sect Leader.
A moment later, Lu Ye stood in front of the Sect Leader and explained his purpose of visit.
"It's the seventh day." The Sect Leader was a little surprised. When he first saw Lu Ye in the Evil Moon Valley, he had just been enlightened. On the way back to Ao Mountain, he was attacked and forced to send him to the Spirit Stream Battlefield. In the blink of an eye, this disciple, who was almost picked up, was already the seventh day.
Moreover, he had stirred up a big storm in the Spirit Stream Battlefield.
"Yes, I think it's time to enter the core circle."
"What's your plan?"
"I don't have any special plans. I'll just walk around and have a look."
When he entered the inner circle, Lu Ye didn't cultivate in a sect's encampment. Now that he was going to enter the core circle, he didn't want to be tied to a certain place.
Some people he met in the Chess Sea had sent him invitations, but Lu Ye had declined them.
With the previous incident in the inner circle, his trip to the core circle would not be too peaceful. If there were no accidents, the Myriad Devil Ridge would definitely pay attention to his whereabouts at all times and then target him.
Lu Ye wasn't afraid of this.
The Sect Leader coughed softly. "Yi Ye, it's like this. Didn't I bring back 50 junior brothers and sisters for you? I'm sure you know the origins of these 50 people. "
"I heard."
The top 50 of the Third Sacred Academy's disciple recruitment ceremony were all captured. The Third Sacred Academy's Sect Master, Yu Ganju, even came to Ao Mountain to fight with the Sect Leader. Lu Ye had seen this with his own eyes.
"As the price for not pursuing this matter, the Third Sacred Academy made a request. I had no choice but to agree."
"It has something to do with me?"
"The Third Sacred Academy wants you to join their sect after entering the core circle. Their current generation of Spirit Stream Realm cultivators is a little weak, and their situation isn't very good, so they want you to help them."
Lu Ye was a little puzzled. "They're quite bold."
Their situation wasn't good, and they actually wanted him to join their sect. In Lu Ye's opinion, this was completely suicidal.
The Sect Exterminating Leaf's reputation wasn't too good in the Myriad Devil Ridge. He was already mentally prepared to be targeted after entering the core circle, so no matter which sect he joined, he would bring a lot of trouble.
This was also why he didn't plan on joining any sect.
What was the Third Sacred Academy thinking? Did they think that the pressure from their own sect wasn't great enough, so they wanted more excitement?
"Of course, this matter still depends on you. If you don't want to, then don't go. I have my ways of dealing with the Third Sacred Academy."
"It doesn't matter. If they want me to go, then I'll go."
After leaving the Sect Leader's place, Lu Ye still didn't understand what the Third Sacred Academy wanted.
He didn't understand, but he didn't want to think about it. Since the Third Sacred Academy had this request, and the Sect Leader had agreed, then there was no need for him to refuse.
No matter what, the Sect Leader had snatched 50 good seedlings from the other sect's disciple recruitment ceremony.
On this trip to the core circle, Hu Po and Yi Yi naturally had to come with him. He also had to bring Ju Jia and Feng Yue.
Originally, Lu Ye had planned to send Hua Ci and Feng Yue to one of the sects in the core circle. Now that Hua Ci had left, Feng Yue couldn't stay in the outer circle. She wouldn't have many opportunities to earn merit points here.
He sent a message out, telling them to make their own preparations.
Lu Ye also sent a message to his fourth senior apprentice brother, asking about the situation with his spirit apertures. After learning that his fourth senior apprentice brother's damaged spirit apertures had been completely repaired, he relaxed.
Moreover, his fourth senior apprentice brother said that it was all thanks to him buying two sets of Restoring Aperture Pills. Otherwise, his damaged spirit apertures wouldn't have been able to be repaired. Because his spirit apertures had been damaged for too long, using one set of Restoring Aperture Pills didn't have much of an effect.
