Chapter 324: Dissecting the Divinity
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
One day in the void space equated to just one minute in real-time..
This effect was no different from attaching a rocket booster under Lu Ming’s butt and propelling him directly into the sky!
As for the new body forging technique, the Spirit Refinement Technique, it further increased Lu Ming’s efficiency in obtaining attribute points.
Although the entry level of the Spirit Refinement Technique provided +10 points per cycle, compared to the +50 of the Refinement Realm Flame Body Forging Technique and +100 of the Divine Power Realm,
it was obvious which one to choose…
Just as Lu Ming assumed the starting stance of the Spirit Refinement Technique, he immediately sensed a massive influx of Source Power into his body from the outside world.
Driven by Source Power, Lu Ming felt an unprecedented smoothness in cultivating the Spirit Refinement Method!
Body Forging techniques were like weightlifting and working out for regular people.
It focused on resistance training—only the weights were dumbbells and barbells, and now they were the strength of one’s own muscles.
Therefore, many movements of the body forging technique were very awkward. It was equivalent to twisting one’s thigh with one’s arm.
However, the characteristic of the Spirit Refinement Technique was that the higher the concentration of source power, the faster the cultivation speed!
At this moment, while cultivating the Spirit Refinement Technique in the Boshi Tower, Lu Ming felt no hindrance. The immense Source Power was like a pusher, propelling Lu Ming to complete one awkward move after another rapidly!
In just three minutes!
Three minutes in the Void Realm!
He had already finished cultivating one round of the Spirit Refinement Technique.
A large amount of insights rushed into Lu Ming’s mind. At this moment, with his eyes closed, he contemplated and digested them.
When he opened the attribute panel again, he discovered that his three attributes had increased by 20 points (10 basic points, and the Flame Body Forging Technique’s effect doubled the efficiency).
As for proficiency… it directly surpassed the proficiency limit of the entry level!
Spirit Refinement Technique (Mastery) (0/1,000).
Each cycle provided 20 points for all three-dimensional attributes and 20 free attribute points.
Coupled with the divine power effect of the Flame Body Forging Technique, a cycle equaled 40 points of all attributes.
Performing a simple conclusion, Lu Ming raised his hand again and made the opening gesture of the Spirit Refinement Technique.
Another three minutes later, the Spirit Refinement Technique was completed.
He opened his attribute panel and looked at the description of the Spirit Refinement Technique.
Spirit Refinement Technique (Mastery) (200/1,000).
Under normal circumstances, practicing the Body Forging Technique once corresponded to 1 proficiency point.
However, under the blessing of the Four Treasures and the special effects of the Divine Power Realm, Lu Ming now gained a terrifying 200 proficiency points when cultivating the Body Forging Technique!
And the time spent has changed from the original half an hour for one practice to the current three minutes for one practice…
Moreover, these three minutes were three minutes in the Void Realm, and in the outside world, it was probably just a blink of an eye!
Just as Jiu Han had said,
Lu Ming’s strength had reached its peak!
Fifteen minutes later in the Void Space, the Spirit Refinement Technique advanced again.
Spirit Refinement Technique (Proficient) (0/10,000).
Each cycle provided 50 points for all three-dimensional attributes and 50 points for free attribute points.
This speed was already comparable to the Flame Body Forging Technique in the Micro Realm, and the actual effect was multiplied by two!
No need to say more, continue training!
Two and a half hours later in the Void Space, his Spirit Refinement Technique advanced again.
Spirit Refinement Technique (Mastery) (0/100,000).
Each cycle provided 100 points for all three-dimensional attributes and 100 points for free attribute points.
“Keep going!”
After a simple estimation, Lu Ming felt that he probably would not need a whole day in the outside world before he switched to another body-forging technique…
He then glanced at his attribute panel and looked at the Divine Source Points column.
His eyebrows rose.
“It has increased so much… That’s right. My cultivation speed has increased so much, and the speed of extracting the Divine Source has also become much faster.”
It could be clearly seen that the number on the Divine Source Points column had already changed from the original 43 to the current 96!
Just as Lu Ming’s Spirit Refinement Technique reached the Mastery Realm, things on Jiu Han’s side had reached a critical moment.
Currently, Lu Ming’s efficiency in extracting Divine Source points had already surpassed Qing Jue’s self-recovery ability.
Traces of Divine Source were sucked away by Lu Ming, this black hole. When his self-recovery ability could not keep up previously, what Lu Ming moved was Qing Jue’s Divine Source reserve.
Jiu Han, whose eyes were shining with golden light, focused all his attention on Qing Jue.
Penetrating Qing Jue’s body with his gaze, Jiu Han clearly saw the lychee-sized divinity in Qing Jue’s mind.
With each acquisition of attributes by Lu Ming, the divinity would rotate, extracting a trace of divine essence, and then quickly recovering – but at this moment, Lu Ming’s absorption speed has exceeded the self-recovery speed of the divinity.
This made the divinity start to be insufficient.
It was like peeling an onion.
Layer after layer of Divine Source began to peel off from the lychee-sized divinity, turning into threads and strands, pouring into Lu Ming’s bottomless abyss.
Facing this seemingly ordinary situation, Jiu Han’s gaze was focused and deep, and extremely serious in observing.
Until Qing Jue’s divinity shrank by a full half.
The divinity abruptly stopped rotating.
Seeing this, Jiu Han’s gaze narrowed. After a long time, he took a deep breath.
“Silent state.”
Qing Jue’s divinity had already shrunk from a lychee to the size of a cherry.
At the same time, the divinity no longer rotated or separated. It even stopped producing Divine Source. Naturally, Lu Ming could no longer obtain Divine Source.
“Silent state.”
Jiu Han muttered and revealed the current state of Qing Jue’s divinity.
This was the silent state of the divinity.
The Divine Spirits control the Divine Source. Actually, it made sense that this saying could also be reversed.
Those who control the Divine Source were at the Divine Spirit Realm!
The foundation of Divine Source lay in Divinity.
Divinity was like the generator of Divine Source. It was precisely because of the possession of Divinity that the Divine Source of a Divine Spirit could be self-born and self-recovered, and could be used at will.
Normally, a divine persona had three layers.
The outer layer structure was the scattered Divine Source—it was like the fragrance emitted by a fruit.
If dealing with enemies below the Divine Spirit Realm or making normal moves, this portion of Divine Source was completely sufficient.
The middle layer was fruit flesh.
Taking Qing Jue’s divinity as an example, the part of his divinity that transformed from lychee to cherry was the peeled-off flesh layer, also called the middle layer.
As for the middle level, it was the essence of the god’s power – when fighting against opponents of the same level, it depended on the reserves of this layer.
Once the middle level was depleted, the divinity would enter a silent state, exposing the last level, the inner level.
It was also the core of the fruit!
The inner layer of the divinity could also be called the divinity core—this was a reward given by the Supreme God after one completed ascending the Heaven Ascension Stairs.
However, in fact, gods were unable to mobilize the power of the inner layer of the divinity.
The power that gods could mobilize was limited to the middle and outer layers.
Once the Divine Source in the middle and outer layer was exhausted and the inner layer of divinity was exposed, the divinity would enter a silent state.
When the divinity entered a silent state, it meant that the god himself had also entered a silent state. This required a long time to make up for the consumption of the divinity, waiting for the middle and outer layers to grow back.
This was the power logic of the strong in the realm of gods.
—Completely relying on his divinity.
And the divinity relied on the supreme god.
It was just like what Jiu Han had said — the manor owner and the gardener..
