Chapter 40: Purple Light Points
After his breakthrough, Ji Yang no longer hesitated and began to silently cultivate the Techniques that were already stored in his mind!
As Ji Yang practiced, he felt as if his whole body was soaking in a hot spring, surrounded by comfort.
At the same time, bright white light began to radiate from him! His body slowly lifted off the ground, hovering in midair, as if he was about to rise to the heavens at any moment!
As his practice deepened, a pair of invisible white wings seemed to flicker behind him.
Deep in his meditation, Ji Yang did not notice the astonishing phenomenon but focused on entering the basics of the Techniques!
Half an hour later, Ji Yang opened his eyes in a daze and then, feeling weightless, fell back into the mine.
Though his body was strong and unharmed, he looked a bit disheveled.
Ji Yang did not care much about the unusual phenomenon during his practice, as he was not relying on training to increase his realm!
Once Ji Yang stood up again, he opened his palm, and as True Essence condensed, a deep blue fireball appeared in his hand; this was a compressed Fireball Technique.
After reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, his control over magic power and understanding of spells had greatly improved.
However, Ji Yang was not satisfied. As the white light surged within him, a hint of cool white radiance appeared in the fireball in his hand.
This enhancement came from the Feather Transformation Ascension Skill.
With the elevation of his realm, the integration of Techniques and True Essence would become increasingly effortless.
In time, Ji Yang could strike casually and combine both, infused with the effects of the Techniques, but such Techniques with obvious traits were hard to conceal.
Fortunately, the Breath-Holding Technique played a role at this moment, completely hiding these characteristics.
Seeing that the experiment was almost complete, Ji Yang tossed the fireball from his hand.
“Boom!”
An explosion sounded from the nearby Ziying Mine, and as the dust settled, a huge crater appeared before Ji Yang’s eyes.
Not bad.
Ji Yang nodded slightly, feeling very satisfied with his casual strike.
Not only that, but every future blow he delivered with full force would also carry a special effect, with the special effect of the Feather Transformation Ascension Skill allowing his opponent to imagine ascending!
Of course, this did not mean they would actually ascend, but rather it was a divine sense attack, causing the opponent to sink into the fantasy of ascension, experiencing the feeling of becoming an immortal!
But in the heat of battle, who could afford to be distracted? Even the slightest error could lead to a painful price.
Ji Yang found this effect quite impressive! Perhaps he could develop other clever uses!
Besides this, the Feather Transformation Ascension Skill also came with a few special techniques that required a sufficient realm to use.
The previous Breath-Holding Technique was one of them, and the one closest to Ji Yang at the moment was called Feather Transformation!
However, the prerequisite was to reach the late Foundation Establishment stage to use it, so Ji Yang did not look into it further.
He believed he would not need more than a couple of days.
After sorting out the gains from his advancement, Ji Yang stopped hesitating, picked up the iron pick, and began mining again!
Cultivation +1
Physique +1
Spirituality +1
Superior flying sword +1
……
On the third day, Ji Yang had accumulated seven more cultivation points, but he still needed quite a bit more to level up and had to continue working hard.
On the fourth day, Ji Yang had already lost track of where he was mining, and at night he didn’t even return to the mine hall. Elder Lu noticed Ji Yang’s absence but said nothing.
Meanwhile, the other newcomers were all dumbfounded; they didn’t know how to describe someone who was so… so… they couldn’t find the right adjectives.
On the other side, Ji Yang looked at his cultivation level, which had reached 14 points, and continued mining without a moment’s pause, even forgetting about time.
The iron pick in his hand hadn’t stopped for days, and fortunately, it was a magical tool personally crafted by Elder Chai, which was indeed quite good!
“Clang!”
As Ji Yang lightly swung the pick, he felt a sensation of resistance.
Ji Yang was first surprised, then his face lit up with joy.
After so much digging, it had to be something good.
Ji Yang looked ahead and indeed saw that a chunk of Ziying ore looked a bit different, with a much deeper color.
Although it was far from the previous Zixin ore, it was still much better than high-quality Ziying ore.
Seeing this, Ji Yang decisively swung the iron pick again, injecting a bit of True Essence into it, causing the dark iron pick to emit a shining light as he struck down.
An unusual piece of ore was dug out by Ji Yang.
However, upon seeing the emerging Light points, Ji Yang felt a bit disappointed; they were just Blue Light Points, not the sought-after Purple Light Points.
He had hoped this ore would bring him a surprise!
But the cultivation points were still decent, so Ji Yang reached out to absorb them.
Cultivation +1
Cultivation +1
The increase of two cultivation points made Ji Yang’s eyes sparkle; he hadn’t noticed earlier, but it turned out to be a double bonus!
After absorbing the Light points, Ji Yang swung the iron pick again and struck forcefully ahead.
“Boom!”
As Ji Yang broke through, the pile of ore collapsed rapidly, revealing the mine tunnel on the other side.
Seeing the familiar mine tunnel, Ji Yang was stunned because it was clearly the tunnel he had mined earlier.
So, did he just break through?
Others typically mined slowly along a single tunnel, and since their speed was not fast, such situations wouldn’t usually occur.
However, Ji Yang would randomly change locations to continue digging when he felt unlucky.
Over the past few days, Ji Yang had lost track of how many tunnels he had changed; it was all so complex inside the mine that even a dog would shake its head!
The scene before Ji Yang didn’t make him overthink; he just needed to change to another tunnel and keep mining.
Just as Ji Yang was using the iron pick to clear away the recently collapsed Ziying ore, a bright purple Light point suddenly caught his attention.
“Divine ability?”
Looking at the suddenly appearing purple Light point, Ji Yang reached out to absorb it.
At that moment, vibrations suddenly echoed around him, catching Ji Yang off guard, nearly causing him to stumble.
An earthquake?
Ji Yang steadied himself with the iron pick and looked up at the mine tunnel above him, feeling anxious.
With such a large Ziying ore, it shouldn’t collapse, right?
The sound of the tremors did not stop; instead, it grew stronger, and at that moment, Ji Yang noticed cracks appearing on the heavy beams connecting various mine tunnels around him.
As the cracks began to widen, the vibrations above the Ziying ore intensified.
It’s over; it really might collapse!
Just as Ji Yang thought about running out, he suddenly remembered that he hadn’t absorbed the purple Light point he just uncovered.
Without hesitation, Ji Yang leapt up, quickly darting toward the soon-to-be-buried purple Light point.
He had to get this Light point! It couldn’t be buried, or else he wouldn’t know where to dig after the mine collapsed.
As his fingers touched the purple Light point, Ji Yang thought to himself,
“Got it!” Without looking back, he quickly sprinted in the direction he came from!
Although the mine tunnels were complex, they were all dug out by Ji Yang, so he was quite confident about his exit.
But as Ji Yang passed through several identical mine tunnels, a hint of confusion appeared in his eyes that shouldn’t have been there.
Which tunnel should he take?
Oh no!
Even though Ji Yang was typically carefree, he could sense a hint of danger at this moment.
