Chapter 59 The Supreme Method of Burning Blood to Exchange for Life
As for his girlfriend's cultivation gains... Zhou Zheng found it a bit strange. Could it be due to a difference in talent? Or was it because she didn't have a cultivation technique, resulting in minimal gains?
However, the 20 points of strength and 1 point of wood spirit root gain may seem small, but they are actually quite significant.
Keep in mind that even a second-grade lower-level Dao talisman only increases strength by 30 points. As for spiritual roots, many people are stuck with their talents for their entire lives.
"But it's still a bit too little."
Never mind, I'll urge her to practice her cultivation technique after she wakes up and see if that helps.
Zhou Zheng gently laid Xiaoxue down, picked up a blanket and covered her with it, then slowly got out of bed, left the room, and closed the door.
He went straight to Liu Zhen, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room, playing games with his legs crossed.
Liu Zhen turned his head at the sound of the voice: "What's wrong? What's the matter?"
Zhou Zheng: "Brother Liu, do you have any spirit-gathering arrays used by those in the Qi Refining stage? The kind used within our Thunder Department. You know, my relationship with the White Cloud Temple isn't very good, so it's not convenient for me."
By relying solely on your own hard work, it would take one or two days to cultivate. But if you begged a powerful figure for a spirit-gathering array, you could enjoy unparalleled success.
Liu Zhen grinned from ear to ear: "I've been waiting for you to ask! What kind do you want? Ordinary? Lightning-type? The one with the best spirit-gathering effect?"
I'm not afraid of Zhou Zheng speaking up, I'm afraid of him not speaking up.
A fake protector: protecting an arrogant young genius.
The true protector: nurturing an ultra-rare little genius of the Thunder Path.
Every now and then, feed Zhou Zheng something good and see if there are any amazing little changes.
Zhou Zhenghao declared confidently, "Then naturally we'll choose the one with the best spirit-gathering effect within the Qi Refining Realm!"
Previously: I had the utmost contempt for those guys who relied on money to get their skills repaired; their skills were superficial.
Now: It's great to have a powerful backer.
Liu Zhen hurriedly put his phone on the table and hung up. He rummaged through his storage ring and pulled out a three-by-three Thunder Floor Plate. He got up, took a few steps, and placed it in the living room. Then, he wiped away all the array patterns on its surface with his hand: "Wait a minute. I haven't carved a Spirit Gathering Array in many years. Let me remember."
Liu Zhen stared at the floor for a long time, then quickly took out his phone and started typing away. While looking at his phone, he raised his hand and began to write and draw on the Thunder Floor with incredible speed.
After drawing the array patterns, Liu Zhen placed a futon in the middle of the Thunder Floor, then placed boxes in the four corners of the floor, and took out four Thunder Stones from his storage ring and placed them in the boxes.
Liu Zhen sat down and tried it out, nodding in satisfaction: "Although it's not as good as a fixed spirit-gathering array, this portable one is enough for you. Come on, sit down and try it out."
Liu Zhen got up and beckoned Zhou Zheng to come and try.
Zhou Zheng looked at the location: "Brother Liu, could you help me move this spirit-gathering array here so that I can absorb and condense yang energy?" With the yang energy entering the body, the cultivation effect will be even better.
"No problem, come on, come on, sit down and try it out."
Liu Zhen moved the Thunder Floorboard to a sunny spot, clapped his hands, and chuckled.
Zhou Zheng happily sat down, glanced at the pop-up window, and exclaimed, "Huh, only a 5% speed increase?"
[Portable Qi Refining Realm Lightning-Type Spirit Gathering Array]
[Current cultivation speed: 5%]
[Cultivation speedup cap: 60%]
[Introduction: It's quite a challenge for Liu Zhen, who's been searching on his phone for how to draw a Qi Refining Realm Spirit Gathering Array—of course, this doesn't affect the array's effectiveness.]
Liu Zhen was both amused and exasperated: "Generally speaking, it takes 3 to 5 days to reach the peak concentration of spiritual energy. If you want to go at full speed, you can either convert the spiritual energy yourself or I can do it for you?"
Liu Zhen would have prepared everything for anyone else, but with Zhou Zheng, Liu Zhen felt it was unnecessary to do such a small thing. The child possessed fifteen different spiritual attributes; he could simply make whatever he liked.
Zhou Zheng: "Haha, no need, no need, I'll convert it myself."
The conventional way to quickly increase the concentration of spiritual energy is through natural gathering. An unconventional method is to directly convert one's own spiritual energy to increase the concentration within the gathering array.
Most people wouldn't use this approach, but Zhou Zheng is no ordinary person.
回春诀提供了每秒1点的能量恢复,燃血法提供了每秒2点到4点的能量恢复,默认算上限4点。然后劫后余生提供了每6秒恢复1%能量。
平均算下来就是,自己每分钟可以恢复:300点+10%能量=300+(300*10%)=330点灵力。
It seems like a lot, but it's actually a lot. You should know that some max-level Qi Refining Realm cultivation techniques that focus on increasing the maximum spiritual power only increase the maximum spiritual power by 150 points.
Zhou Zheng sat cross-legged inside the Spirit Gathering Array, directly releasing spiritual energy to charge the array's cultivation acceleration effect. It took more than ten minutes to fully activate the Spirit Gathering effect. If there was any slight impact, the Spirit Gathering effect would decrease by 1%-3%, but it would eventually remain at 95%.
If someone else were to draw the Spirit Gathering Array, Zhou Zheng believed that the growth rate would drop even more drastically.
Zhou Zheng opened his eyes: "Holy crap, even slight changes in the surrounding environment can affect the spirit-gathering effect?"
Liu Zhen sat on the sofa and stopped playing games. He stared at Zhou Zheng and laughed: "Then why do you think cultivators always look for places where no one will disturb them to cultivate? It's because even a slight disturbance will reduce the effect of gathering spiritual energy, affect the cultivation state, and it will take a while to return to meditation. Who knows how long it will take to recover to the best cultivation effect."
However… you don’t need to worry about these issues. You have an absurdly high amount of spiritual energy, a strong will, and a fast meditative speed; entering a state of flow meditation won’t be difficult for you.”
As for the 5% growth rate, so be it. The quality of this spirit gathering is already good enough for Zhou Zheng to use for a long time.
As Zhou Zheng watched the spirit gathering effect slowly drop to 95% growth rate, he felt his obsessive-compulsive disorder kick in. After a moment of contemplation, he came up with a solution. He raised his hand and drew eight Five Thunder Talismans, which he then placed in the corner of the portable spirit gathering array on the Thunder Ground, forming a simple thunder-type array to gather and lock spirits.
Generally speaking, some rare spiritual objects or objects with spiritual power can gather spiritual energy, the difference being whether it is strong or weak.
Second-tier spiritual power attribute talismans also have this effect, but they are not as good as specialized spirit-gathering objects, but they are sufficient for locking spirits.
[Spirit Gathering Effect: 95%↑]
[Cultivation speedup: 60%]
Seeing that the effect was finally complete, Zhou Zheng smiled with satisfaction and took out his phone to review the Blood Burning Technique once again.
The principle of the Blood Burning Technique is very simple, and the initial techniques required are few. It relies purely on arduous practice. Most practitioners can only use it superficially and dare not truly cultivate it to a higher level. Without strong vitality or regenerative ability, trying to cultivate it deeply will really burn oneself into a short-lived species.
After reviewing, I put my phone into my storage ring and transformed my Thunder Dragon Robe into Thunder Dragon Pants, exposing my upper body to sunbathe.
Close your eyes, sit cross-legged, place your hands on your lap to enter a meditative state and practice the Blood Burning Technique, and your whole body will light up with blue light.
The gushing blood echoed around his ears, transforming into surging spiritual energy that rose up from his mouth, nose, and pores. The overflowing spiritual energy was converted into spiritual energy and locked by the spirit-gathering array.
At first it was fine, but gradually, my mind began to waver slightly, my body seemed to sway in a sea of blood, and a murmured demonic voice rose from the void. Faint black demonic phantoms flashed past my eyes, and the world swayed from side to side.
Zhou Zheng frowned, sensing that something was wrong, but he could only force himself to calm down and process these strange demonic sounds and illusions, silently reciting the Golden Light Thunder Spell to stabilize his mind.
Beads of sweat seeped from his forehead, and the pressure on his mind increased dramatically, as if he were carrying a mountain in his head.
A trickle of blue blood slid from the corner of Zhou Zheng's mouth, falling into the air and evaporating as spiritual energy.
No, why is the Blood Burning Technique so difficult to cultivate?
I don't believe in superstitions; do you think a mere illusion can stop me?
Zhou Zheng endured the discomfort, suppressing the demonic sounds and shadows while diligently cultivating the Blood Burning Technique. He was sweating profusely, and even though he was basking in the sunlight, he could not suppress the strange phenomenon that came from within, from before his eyes, and from the surrounding void.
Thunderous sounds echoed in his ears, suppressing some of the eerie dark illusions and gradually clearing his mind. However, the eerie demonic shadows still lingered and lingered around him, though their ability to disturb his mind had weakened.
Zhou Zheng gritted his teeth, letting the blood spill from his mouth and flow down his chin, turning into spiritual energy and evaporating in mid-air, determined to cultivate the Blood Burning Technique to level 5.
At this moment, every second is an ordeal, every second is a struggle between the mind and the eerie demonic sounds and shadows.
