Capítulo 10: Chapter 10: The Transformation and Sublimation of Level 7
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lu Yi clicked to claim the reward for the second task. Instantly, a pair of light blue boots with intricate cloud patterns appeared on the table in front of him.
Mid Grade Magic Tool, Flowing Cloud Boots.
Lu Yi felt a bit excited in his heart. He now owned a Mid Grade Magic Tool! Thinking of Old Lu, that stingy guy, who wouldn't even let him touch a Mid Grade Magic Sword, now he had his own! If Old Lu found out, who knows how envious he would be.
Lu Yi couldn't wait to start identifying the master. All Magic Artifacts required identifying a master; only then could they unleash their full power. Recognizing a master was simple: Lu Yi's spiritual power entered the artifact, leaving his spiritual imprint, completing the identification easily.
After identifying the master, Lu Yi took off his old shoes and put on the Flowing Cloud Boots.
After putting on the Flowing Cloud Boots, Lu Yi stood up and bounced twice in place, feeling thrilled. No wonder it was a Mid Grade Magic Tool; it was so comfortable to wear!
Moreover, what surprised Lu Yi even more was that after putting on the Flowing Cloud Boots, he felt his body become lighter. Could it be that his speed had increased?
Lu Yi injected Spiritual Energy into the Flowing Cloud Boots, fully activating the artifact. Then he activated the White Cloud Stance, and in the next moment, his body flickered; within the blink of an eye, he appeared from one end of the room to the other, with his face only a centimeter away from the wall.
That was close; almost smashed his handsome face into the wall.
Lu Yi felt a bit scared but then also thrilled. The Flowing Cloud Boots had increased his speed by nearly 30%!
One must know that Lu Yi had already practiced the White Cloud Stance to a Returning True state. His speed was very fast, comparable to cultivators of the Eighth or even Ninth Layer of Qi Cultivation. With a 30% increase, even cultivators of the Ninth Layer might not be able to match his speed.
No wonder they said Mid Grade Magic Tools are powerful!
Lu Yi, like he had a new toy, activated the White Cloud Stance, his figure constantly flickering around the room—one moment here, another moment there, like a ghostly shadow.
After a while, Lu Yi had enough fun and sat down on the chair satisfied, continuing to check his gains.
The third task was also to defeat an Outer Sect disciple, but this time the opponent was Wang Xinqi. The reward was two Perfect-Grade Qi Condensation Elixirs. Lu Yi claimed them and held the elixirs in his hand; he now had three, ready to use for his next cultivation.
The fourth task was to demonstrate the White Cloud Sword Technique with Senior Sister Liu Ningshuang. His White Cloud Sword Technique level would increase by one.
After accepting the task, Lu Yi suddenly felt his brain swell as a massive amount of information flooded in—all insights about the White Cloud Sword Technique.
Lu Yi closed his eyes to absorb the information. When he fully absorbed it and opened his eyes, there seemed to be a flash of sword light in his eyes. He exhaled a deep breath, then raised his finger. Spiritual energy swirled around his finger, looking very soft. With a single swipe, ripples like flowing clouds suddenly appeared in the air, quietly leaving several cloud patterns on the ground.
Looking at the cloud patterns on the ground, Lu Yi felt incredibly excited. Level 6 and Level 7 are completely different concepts!
Though the White Cloud Sword Technique was still the White Cloud Sword Technique, the way Spiritual Energy circulated in Lu Yi's body was different. With a few changes in the Spiritual Energy flow routes, the energy utilization became more efficient and powerful!
This was a form of optimization! If the White Cloud Sword Technique before Level 6 was about constant practice, at Level 7, it had transcended the original framework, evolving the technique.
Lu Yi felt that if he went all out now, the power of his moves would be nearly 50% stronger than before, and his mastery had become much smoother. Most importantly, the Spiritual Energy consumption hadn't increased!
Can you believe it? The Spiritual Energy consumption didn't increase but the power increased by 50%!
Such a transformation was simply unimaginable.
Lu Yi was shocked. Just a Level 7 White Cloud Sword Technique was already so powerful; what about Levels 8 and 9? If the optimization continued, would the power still increase without additional Spiritual Energy consumption?
...What kind of technique would that be?
Generally, Qi Cultivators could only fully utilize Qi Cultivation skills at their realm. Some geniuses could master Foundation Establishment skills during Qi Cultivation, but the Spiritual Energy consumption of Foundation Establishment skills was a huge burden for Qi Cultivators. Even well-grounded geniuses couldn't normally use them, only treating them as trump cards.
But if Lu Yi's White Cloud Sword Technique continued to level up, enhancing its power without changing the Spiritual Energy consumption, wouldn't it be equivalent to using a Foundation Establishment skill with Qi Cultivation's efficiency?
Lu Yi's expression turned a bit strange. Techniques that other geniuses treated as their ultimate moves would merely be his normal attacks?
...Doesn't that seem a bit unfair to others?
As Lu Yi thought about it, the corners of his mouth began to rise uncontrollably—it wasn't that he wanted to laugh, he really couldn't hold it in.
After all, he felt like he had become quite formidable.
Lu Yi laughed for a long time before taking a deep breath to calm his restless heart. Calm down, calm down! Even if I can treat ultimate moves as normal attacks, I am just an ordinary tiny Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer! Enemies are still too strong! How could I be so weak?
Not to mention, I am not unbeatable in the Outer Sect!
A Qi Cultivator can't even defeat a Golden Core cultivator, let alone claim to be powerful! Shameless!
Even if ultimate moves can become normal attacks, it has its limits—it's not like I can casually use forbidden spells! Why be so cocky?!
Unless surpassing time, I'm still a rookie!
Slow and steady wins the race!
Stay grounded, don't slack off, we can win!
Lu Yi silently repeated to himself that he was still a rookie, to avoid getting too full of himself. Once someone gets conceited, they become arrogant, and arrogance leads to foolish actions, which then leads to self-destructive behavior.
Lu Yi thought that although he was not a coward, seeking self-destruction wasn't right!
Stop self-destructive behavior, starting with me!
After constantly giving himself these mental cues, Lu Yi gradually felt normal again. What's wrong with being a Qi Cultivator with Foundation Establishment-level skills as normal attacks? Still, a Qi Cultivator right?
I, Lu Yi, am just an ordinary Qi Cultivator of the Sixth Layer! Still need to work hard on cultivation, and safely walk the path of immortality!
Lu Yi nodded slightly to affirm his thoughts.
After finishing counting his gains, Lu Yi glanced outside the window. The sky was tinged with orange and the sun was setting. Today, Senior Sister Liu Ningshuang had lectured all day; by the time he returned, it was already late. Then he counted his gains and realized it's already this late while contemplating the Level 7 White Cloud Sword Technique.
Wondering if Old Lu and Mom finished work yet, Lu Yi felt his stomach growling a bit hungry.
...
Meanwhile, at the Outer Affairs Hall, Lu Gaoyang and Wang Siqi were about to pack up and leave. Stewards also had their shifts, and now it was their turn to finish work.
Just then, a middle-aged man with a red nose hurriedly walked over and shouted at Lu Gaoyang: "Hey, Old Lu! Didn't expect your kid to be this talented! Why didn't you mention it before?!"
Lu Gaoyang was dumbfounded, looking at the red-nosed man: "Huh? What are you talking about?"
