In the Mirage Realm, Lu Ye held his Mountain Coiling Saber and was bathed in blood. The last monster was cut down by his saber, and the ground was covered in green blood and severed limbs. After many days, he finally killed nine monsters that appeared at the same time!
Although his injuries were serious to the point of dizziness, he didn't relax his vigilance because he didn't know if ten monsters would jump out at once. If so, he would have to stretch his neck out.
The fog in front of him rolled and surged, and a figure stepped out of it.
Lu Ye looked over and was stunned. He didn't expect that there were not only strange insect monsters in the Mirage Realm, but also people!
It wasn't accurate to say that it was a person because the person was wrapped in fog, making it impossible to see their appearance. It was even impossible to tell whether they were male or female.
This was obviously not a real person, but a mystery of the Mirage Realm.
While Lu Ye was still looking at the other party, the figure wrapped in fog raised his hand and pointed, and a stream of light rushed towards him. It was the power of an Imperial Artifact!
This guy was a Seventh Order cultivator.
After a short while, in the cultivation room, Lu Ye opened his eyes with a pale face. His head hurt as if it had been pricked by needles. Although he was exhausted, he looked very excited.
After killing the insect monsters in the Ninth Order, a cultivator appeared. This was something he didn't expect, but he was happy to see.
Killing those insect monsters could temper his combat skills, but it didn't have much meaning in the end. In the Spirit Stream Battlefield, he was fighting against Myriad Demon Ridge cultivators. Turning insects into cultivators was undoubtedly more in line with his needs.
He didn't know if he would have to kill insects the next time he went in. If he did, it would be troublesome. It would be best if he didn't, he secretly prayed.
Compared to killing insects, he was more willing to fight with the cultivator in the fog because the other party's strength was indeed what a Seventh Order cultivator should have. Moreover, the other party was one of the best Seventh Order cultivators.
He could only wait until tomorrow to verify it.
He threw two Spirit Pills into his mouth and took out the book he brought back from Madam Yun to study.
After half a day, his exhaustion receded and his Spirit Qi was abundant.
He began to construct Spirit Tattoo 30.
He didn't know if it was because he was in a good mood or because it felt good to the touch, but it was completed in one go today!
He scattered the Spirit Tattoo 30 and tried to construct it again, but it failed.
However, with the experience of a successful attempt, the rest was simple. The third attempt succeeded, the fourth failed, the fifth succeeded, the sixth succeeded …
Lu Ye practiced again and again, finding the feeling of success and accumulating experience from failure. After several dozen tries, his success rate had reached about 70%.
This success rate was already not low. It should have already met Madam Yun's requirements. In other words, he could go to Madam Yun for the next step of learning.
When he was constructing the spirit runes, his spirit energy was depleted. However, with the Spirit Gathering Spirit Rune and the Gluttonous Meal, the total amount of spirit energy in his body didn't decrease. Instead, it continued to increase.
At this moment, it was already full.
He examined his spiritual cavities and urged his spiritual energy to attack the barriers of his spiritual cavities.
After only half an hour, the barriers of his spiritual apertures were broken. At this time, there were already a hundred and eight spiritual apertures in his body.
And this number corresponded to the Seventh Order Spirit Stream Realm!
Circulating his Spirit Qi, Yang Kai began to circulate his Spirit Acupoints, forming a small Heavenly Cycle. As the shockwave swept out, he had reached the Seventh Order Spirit Stream Realm!
He had discovered the follow-up use of the Mirage Realm, constructed thirty Spirit Inscriptions, and even broken through to the Seventh Order Spirit Stream Realm. Today could be considered a triple blessing.
It had been a month since he returned from the Chess Sea, which showed how fast his enlightenment speed was.
He didn't continue cultivating and walked out of the Cultivation Room. Taking advantage of the abundant spirit energy, he went to construct a few Spirit Gathering Spirit Runes for the other Cultivation Rooms. After his continuous efforts over the past few days, basically all the Cultivation Rooms had at least one Spirit Gathering Spirit Rune. A few Cultivation Rooms had two Spirit Gathering Spirit Runes. For example, Hua Ci and the others' Cultivation Rooms had three Spirit Gathering Spirit Runes. Supplemented by the Spirit Gathering Array in the Cultivation Room, the efficiency of the disciples' cultivation was very high.
An hour later, Lu Ye appeared on Bright Heart Peak and sat opposite Madam Yun.
After inspecting the results of Lu Ye's construction of thirty Spirit Inscriptions, Madam Yun took out a large number of thin crystal chips. Each crystal chip was a spirit rune named after a number. They didn't have any practical use, but they played an indelible role in the process of imparting knowledge to a Spirit Rune Master.
Lu Ye dismantled the basic elements of these spirit runes one by one in front of Madam Yun without missing a single one.
Then, Madam Yun taught him some techniques to construct spirit runes and the method of embedding Yin and Yang. Lu Ye asked some questions in his heart and received careful answers.
When the sky was about to turn dark, Madam Yun took out two crystal chips. "These are Spirit Inscriptions 83 and 165. When you successfully construct these two spirit runes, come find me."
She handed over dozens of books to Lu Ye.
Lu Ye carefully put them away and bid farewell to Madam Yun. He left Bright Heart Peak under the escort of the maidservant.
He returned to the main peak and found his Senior Sister Shui Yuan.
"You've reached the Seventh Order?" Shui Yuan looked at Lu Ye in surprise. She was surprised by his cultivation speed. "That's right. Now that you've reached the Seventh Order, you can cultivate the Way of Artifact Manipulation."
Lu Ye's purpose for coming to Shui Yuan was very simple. He had encountered too many Seventh Order cultivators in the Chess Sea and was jealous of their ability to kill enemies with Artifact Manipulation. Now that he had cultivated to the Seventh Order, he naturally rushed over to ask for guidance.
"But I'm actually not very good at the Way of Artifact Manipulation." Shui Yuan's eyes lit up. "You should ask your Fourth Senior Brother. He has high attainments in this Way, so he's the most suitable person to teach you."
"Fourth Senior Brother … Then I'll ask."
After asking for a good meal from his Second Senior Sister to replenish his strength and feeding Hu Po a Blood Vein in its scale armour, Lu Ye returned to the station's cultivation room without stopping.
While cultivating, he sent a message to his Fourth Senior Brother.
Li Baxian was also a little surprised that Lu Ye had reached the Seventh Order so quickly. When he heard that Lu Ye wanted to ask him about the Way of Artifact Manipulation, he told him everything he knew.
Although he couldn't teach him face to face, there wasn't much difference in communicating through messages.
After carefully explaining the essentials of Artifact Manipulation to Lu Ye, Li Baxian finally said, "Little Junior Brother, you should cultivate first. If there's anything you don't understand, feel free to ask me."
"Many thanks, Senior Brother!"
Taking out the Mountain Coiling Saber, Yang Kai placed it on his lap and poured his Spirit Qi into it.
According to Li Baxian, Spirit Stream Realm cultivators mainly used their Spirit Qi to control their Artifacts, so there was a high requirement for their Spirit Qi. The purer their Spirit Qi, the more powerful and faster their Artifact Manipulation would be. There was also the issue of Artifact Manipulation's distance. Generally speaking, a Seventh Order cultivator's Artifact Manipulation range was about three hundred metres, but the purer one's Spirit Qi was, the further their Artifact Manipulation range would be. This was undoubtedly a great advantage when fighting with enemies.
At the same time, Artifact Manipulation also had extremely high requirements for a cultivator's Spirit Qi control, which also affected the speed and distance of their Artifact Manipulation.
Speed and distance were the two main elements of Artifact Manipulation, while the purity and control of one's Spirit Qi were the two main requirements for Artifact Manipulation.
When cultivators of the same cultivation fought with Artifact Manipulation, the one with the advantage in speed and distance would undoubtedly be stronger. Of course, there was also the Artifact Manipulation itself.
Lu Ye wasn't worried about the purity of his Spirit Qi. His Talent Tree burned away all pill toxins, so his Spirit Qi was always pure and flawless, not to mention his control over it.
Even the extremely small Yin and Yang Dual Lands could be constructed and transformed at will, not to mention others.
In this world, when it came to Spirit Qi control, no one could surpass a Spirit Tattooist!
The biggest reason why cultivators could only cultivate the Artifact Manipulation after reaching the Seventh Order was that only cultivators at this level could control Spirit Qi outside of their body to a certain extent.
It was unlike those below the Seventh Order, who couldn't control their Spirit Qi once it left their body.
This reminded Lu Ye of a problem that had been troubling him for a long time, and that was the Fire Phoenix Technique that he used … All this time, Lu Ye basically didn't use this technique to fight enemies unless it was under certain circumstances. This was because accuracy was a big problem. If he used up his spiritual energy to activate a technique and ended up missing, not only would it be a waste of spiritual energy, but it could also give the enemy an opportunity to attack.
But when he was chased by Dong Shuye, Dong Shuye used a huge fireball that could bend, and it chased after him and Hu Po until they were in a sorry state.
Now that he thought about it, this was the difference between a Seventh Order cultivator and a cultivator below the Seventh Order. Dong Shuye could control Spirit Qi outside of his body, so his fireball technique could bend.
And now, he had also reached the Seventh Order.
In order to verify this, Lu Ye walked out of the cultivation room and activated the Fire Phoenix Technique, shooting it towards the sky. In an instant, scorching hot Spirit Qi surged, and a fat bird flapped its wings and flew into the sky.
If it was before, Lu Ye wouldn't have been able to control this fat bird when it flew out, and whether it hit the enemy or not was up to fate.
But now, he could clearly feel that the Spirit Qi that had gathered into the Fire Phoenix Technique was still under his control. With a slight thought, the fat bird flying towards the sky immediately changed its direction and happily flapped its wings in the air. But as time passed, the Spirit Qi that had gathered into this technique was rapidly dissipating, and it seemed that it would disappear completely in a few breaths.
"Puchi!" A laugh came from the side.
Lu Ye turned his head and saw a young girl with her hand over her eyes, looking up at the sky, her gaze following the fat bird's flight path.
This girl looked familiar …
Seemingly aware of Lu Ye's gaze, the young girl quickly retracted her gaze and looked around.
"What's your name?"
The young girl stood up straight, swallowed hard, and said loudly, "Reporting to Fifth Senior Brother, my name is He Xiyin!" Her eyes quickly turned, and she weakly glanced at Lu Ye, adding, "Also, I wasn't laughing at you just now."
"Then what are you laughing at?"
The young girl, He Xiyin, swallowed again, "I don't know what I'm laughing at, I just suddenly felt like laughing … Fifth Senior Brother, I really wasn't laughing at you …" As if she felt that her words weren't convincing at all, she directly squatted down and covered her head, "I was wrong, Fifth Senior Brother, don't hit me!"
She was on tenterhooks for a while, but when she looked up, Lu Ye's figure was already gone, so she patted her chest and let out a long sigh of relief.
