Lu Ye failed again and again, but he wasn't discouraged. On the contrary, he was in high spirits, because every failure was accumulating experience.
The most difficult part of engraving a spirit-gathering rune in a spirit cavity was the circulation of one's own spiritual energy. The circulation of spiritual energy would push the rune away.
Therefore, if Lu Ye wanted to engrave a spirit rune in a spirit cavity, he had to avoid the impact of spiritual energy. Otherwise, it would be impossible to succeed.
However, this would lead to another problem. If the spirit rune was too far away from the spirit cavity, it wouldn't have much of an effect. For example, if Lu Ye engraved a spirit rune on his hand, the spirit rune would gather spiritual energy. However, his body wouldn't be able to accept external spiritual energy, so he wouldn't be able to convert it into his own spiritual energy.
In order to maintain the stability of the spirit rune and make it work, he had to find a point of balance.
Fortunately, the cost of engraving a spirit-gathering rune wasn't high. This was something Lu Ye had discovered when he obtained this spirit rune.
Four hours later, he still hadn't succeeded.
Lu Ye tried to change the shape of the spirit rune. Under normal circumstances, a spirit rune would be a flat surface. Unless one had deep attainments in this field, it would be impossible to change a spirit rune.
Although Lu Ye hadn't studied the knowledge of spirit runes, when he obtained these spirit runes, a large amount of information about them would rush into his mind, allowing him to understand the various mysteries of these spirit runes.
Lu Ye had the ability to change the shape of the three spirit runes he had grasped so far. He only lacked practical experience.
He tried again and again until half a day later, a spirit-gathering rune was formed. This time, it wasn't scattered by the spiritual energy flowing in his body.
Success!
Lu Ye revealed a joyful expression and silently sensed it. He could feel that under the effect of the spirit rune, the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth would gather and pour into the spirit cavity, turning into his own spiritual energy.
At this moment, the spirit-gathering rune had been transformed into the shape of a hole and was engraved on the spirit cavity. The tip of the funnel poked into the spirit cavity with the smallest margin.
In other words, the spiritual energy gathered from the outside world would directly enter his spirit cavity through this small funnel and be converted by his spiritual energy without passing through his body.
In this way, whether Lu Ye's talent was one-leaf or sixty-four leaves, it wouldn't affect the effects of the spirit-gathering rune.
'I'm really clever!' Lu Ye couldn't help but praise himself in his heart.
Although he had successfully engraved the spirit-gathering rune on his spirit cavity and started absorbing spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the rune's effect was limited because it was small.
This was only one spirit cavity.
Lu Ye had now opened twenty-nine spirit cavities …
What effect would it have if he engraved the spirit-gathering rune?
Lu Ye couldn't help but look forward to it. If this idea could be implemented, then his cultivation in the future would not be limited to swallowing spirit pills. He would also be able to absorb the spirit qi of heaven and earth! Not only could he save a lot of spiritual energy of heaven's cultivation resources, but he also could also increase his cultivation efficiency.
Lu Ye couldn't's's's trying trying trying's spirit rune.
With the success of the first attempt, the second attempt was much simpler.
By the time he reached the tenth spirit cavity, Lu Ye could already vaguely feel the effects. By the time he reached the twentieth spirit cavity, the effects were even more obvious. By the time Lu Ye had engraved all twenty-nine of his spirit cavities with the spirit-gathering rune, it was already night.
At this time, he could clearly feel the spiritual energy of heaven and earth continuously pouring into his spirit cavities. Following the flow of his spiritual energy, it was transformed into his own power.
The spirit-gathering rune could last for a long time because it continuously gathered spiritual energy of heaven and earth to replenish itself. In theory, as long as Lu Ye didn't take the initiative to disperse the runes, they would last forever.
Of course, in reality, this was impossible. Lu Ye's current state was stable, so the runes could be maintained. However, if he fought with someone, his spiritual energy would flow violently, and it would be easy to destroy the runes.
In the end, this was a business without any cost. Lu Ye only needed to construct the runes and engrave them on his spirit cavities at the right time. After that, he didn't need to do anything else and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth would be gathered and poured into his body. He could even busy himself with other things …
Now, he just needed to see how much benefit these runes could bring him in a certain period of time.
In order to explore this point, he calmed his breathing and focused his mind, perceiving the changes in the spiritual energy in his body.
Six hours later, he came to a conclusion. If the runes of the twenty-nine spirit cavities could last for a day and a night, the benefits they brought to him were almost equivalent to taking a Spirit Accumulation Pill …
It wasn't much, but it wasn't little either.
It had to be known that there were only twenty-nine spirit cavities, while the total number of spirit cavities in a cultivator's body was as many as three hundred and sixty. If one day, Lu Ye could enhance the spirit-gathering in all three hundred and sixty spirit cavities, the benefits would be great.
Now that he had a lot of Spirit Accumulation Pills, a supplementary Secret Art, Gluttonous Feast, and a Spirit Accumulation Rune, Lu Ye was eager to find a place to retreat and cultivate until he reached the Ninth Order Spirit Stream Realm …
However, what made him feel helpless was that he didn't have a suitable Secret Art.
The Golden Cicada Free Art he obtained from Manager Yang could only be cultivated until the Third Order Spirit Stream Realm.
He originally planned to wait until the next market square and go to the Heavenly Secret Commerce Union's sub-union to see if he could buy a Secret Art. For this reason, he sold four pieces of Yuan Magnetic Ore along the way and saved more than two hundred spirit stones.
But who would have thought that he would be trapped in the Heaven Splitting Gorge, unable to leave for the time being.
This was a little worrying …
After thinking about it, Lu Ye raised his hand and tapped on his Battlefield Imprint, sending out a message.
Chu Tian was meditating to recover when he suddenly received a message. He quickly checked and found that it was Lu Ye looking for him.
Having learned his lesson during the day, Chu Tian cautiously replied, "Junior Brother Yi Ye, what's the matter?"
"Do you have a Mysterious Grade Secret Art? Sell me one."
Chu Tian was puzzled, "What do you want a Mysterious Grade Secret Art for?"
In the corridor, Lu Ye looked at Chu Tian's reply speechlessly, thinking that this guy was an idiot. He patiently replied, "To cultivate!"
Chu Tian looked at Lu Ye's reply and couldn't help but scratch his head.
A moment later, the message was sent back to the Xuan Sect's station.
Wang Yang looked at Xiao Zhu with a surprised expression, "Is the news correct?"
Xiao Zhu nodded, "The news from Chu Tian should be correct."
Wang Yang thought seriously for a moment and couldn't help but click his tongue, "Sure enough, it's the style of those big Sects. The disciples they send out have to completely rely on themselves, not even preparing a Secret Art for them. It seems that the Secret Art he cultivated before was only a Yellow Grade Secret Art. Now that he has reached the peak of the Third Order Spirit Stream Realm, he needs to change it."
"Chu Tian is waiting for the letter, how should we reply?"
"It's just a Secret Art, something that can be found on the streets. Just give it to him. Tell Chu Tian to ask him what it is."
"En." Xiao Zhu nodded, thinking that these disciples from big Sects were quite pitiful. Although her own Profound Sect was only a Ninth Grade Sect, in the early stages of cultivation, her Senior Brothers and Junior Sisters helped each other, so there wouldn't be so many hardships.
"Right, don't give it to him for free. Those big Sects don't like this. Sell it to him and ask for less spirit stones, he's also very poor."
"Understood."
