Chapter 107: Flying and Blood Bone Talent!

TL: Etude

At Home

Ye Tian closely examined the design diagram of the Qi Gathering Array. Only then did he realize that to set up a Qi Gathering Array, one not only needed to master 100 array glyphs, but also required spirit stones to activate the Qi Gathering Array.

"The most basic Qi Gathering Arrays don't need spirit stones, but the energy they slowly absorb is hardly more than what's available in the outside world. Only with the help of spirit stones in the intermediate Qi Gathering Arrays can one quickly condense the natural essence. No wonder the villa doesn't have this kind of intermediate Qi Gathering Array—it requires spirit stones. Ordinary people can't get hold of spirit stones; even if they have a Qi Gathering Array, they can't activate it!"

Ye Tian had an epiphany and subsequently burst into delighted laughter.

Spirit stones were something he had in abundance! In the secret realm, he had dug up over 2000 spirit stones. Each of these stones could be used for a month, so 2000 spirit stones would last him many years.

Indeed, Ye Tian was not lacking in spirit stones.

"My next goal is to practice Purple Blood Body Refining Technique, understand the Dao, and comprehend the array glyphs."

Though the practice routine was quite complex, Ye Tian took great pleasure in it.

In a flash, half a month had passed. During this time, Ye Tian's cultivation hadn't made significant progress primarily because he had devoted less time to the Purple Blood Body Refining Technique. However, his physical strength had reached the power of two elephants, and his understanding of the Dao had finally increased to 22%, enabling him to practice silver-level techniques.

Since he didn't have any silver-level techniques at the moment, he put that plan aside for now.

As for the array glyphs, Ye Tian had already engraved 71 of them, reaching the level of a junior array master. All he needed was to engrave 80 array glyphs and master some intermediate arrays to become an intermediate array master.

But Ye Tian felt that if he wanted to engrave 100 array glyphs, he would need at least another two to three months, and he couldn't wait that long.

"I must duplicate more high-tier array talents!"

Ye Tian resolved.

Top-tier array talents were hard to come by, but high-level array talents weren't. Besides, his talent duplication cooldown had ended, giving him two more duplication opportunities.

This time, he planned to duplicate two high-level array talents and combine them to elevate his own array talent to the top-tier.

Once he had top-tier array talents, he could complete the engraving of 100 array glyphs and set up the Qi Gathering Array within a short time.

Eventually, that day came.

Ye Tian visited various bases of major forces and, after some investigation, found traces of two high-level array masters in the Helian family. He duplicated their high-level array talents.

Afterward, Ye Tian returned home and fused the two high-level array talents.

Half an hour passed.

A slightly weary Ye Tian looked at the talent level displayed on his retinal screen with a smile on his face—

"With top-tier array talents, I should be able to engrave 100 array glyphs within a month. Then, I can set up the Qi Gathering Array and make all this time and effort worthwhile," Ye Tian mused.

He continued to ponder on the array glyphs, striving to engrave 100 of them as soon as possible. To achieve this goal quickly, Ye Tian even reduced the time he spent on practicing the Purple Blood Body Refining Technique and temporarily put his understanding of the Dao aside.

Finally, 26 days later, with the help of his top-tier array talents, Ye Tian successfully engraved 100 array glyphs.

Everything was ready except for the opportune moment.

Ye Tian prepared to take out a high-grade array disc embryo and began to engrave the glyphs for an intermediate Qi Gathering Array.

Because he barely met the qualifications for creating a Qi Gathering Array, and considering the complexity of an intermediate Qi Gathering Array, even with the amplification effects of his top-tier array talents, Ye Tian couldn't guarantee a 100% success rate.

"Begin!"

The first array glyph was successfully engraved, followed by the second, the third, the fourth...

During the engraving of the forty-second array glyph, a slight error occurred. The engraving failed, and the array disc embryo was ruined.

He took out a new array plate embryo and continued his work. After wasting three more, Ye Tian finally succeeded on his fourth attempt.

He embedded the completed array plate into the floor of his cultivation room and affixed a spiritual stone on it, thereby activating the Qi Gathering Array.

Boom!

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth surged into the room, gradually thickening the atmosphere within the array's space. About half an hour passed, and the concentration of spiritual energy in the cultivation room had reached levels more than ten times higher than the outside world.

"Such rich spiritual energy; even taking a single breath feels incredibly smooth!" Ye Tian was quite pleased with the effects of the Qi Gathering Array.

He could now focus entirely on cultivation. With his Morning Star-level cultivation talent and a high-tier Qi cultivation technique—the Purple Blood Body Refining Technique—supplemented by the Qi Gathering Array, his rate of progress was astonishing. If outsiders knew, they'd undoubtedly label him a monster among monsters.

After a day of cultivation, Ye Tian mumbled to himself, "At this rate, I can increase my strength by 9 Elephants of Power within a month!" Nine Elephants of Power in a month meant that in ten months he'd reach 90 Elephants of Power. Considering that his rate of progress might slow down a bit later, a year would be sufficient to reach the pinnacle of the Grandmaster level.

Days passed, and Ye Tian had two more opportunities to replicate talents. However, he was indecisive about what to copy.

"Ah, I remember now! Xiao Xue has many talents I haven't copied yet."

Xiao Xue was the name he had given to his dragon companion. Glancing over, he saw Xiao Xue playing with Little Jin and didn't wish to disturb them.

"Which one should I copy?" Ye Tian hesitated.

In the end, his gaze settled on two of Xiao Xue's talents:

[High-Level Flying Talent]

[Medium-Level Blood Bone Talent]

It wasn't that Ye Tian didn't want to copy other talents; it was that most of the other talents were dragon-related. He didn't possess dragon blood, so copying those might not be very effective.

"The High-Level Flying Talent is pretty good; I've wanted to copy it for a while now. Since I don't know which talent to copy at the moment, this seems like a decent choice!" Ye Tian thought.

Copy, integrate!

Quickly, Ye Tian had the High-Level Flying Talent. He tested it by flying around the room. The result was that, without the aid of any other forces, he floated into the air, flying to any corner at will, thanks to the Flying Talent.

After resting for a while, he began to copy the Medium-Level Blood Bone Talent. He already knew what it was from seeing Xiao Xue use it a few times. The Blood Bone Talent was a unique skill that allowed one to choose a bone within the body to refine with blood, ultimately forging it into a Blood Bone weapon that could be taken out or put back into the body at will. The key was that, upon refinement, the Blood Bone could take any weapon shape, even that of a sword. Moreover, a new bone would regrow where the Blood Bone was extracted, so it wouldn't affect the body adversely.

The only drawback was that the Blood Bone Talent was only of medium level; it could at most form a high-level elemental weapon. Once he reached the King level, this talent wouldn't be of much use.

However, it was better than nothing. If he could somehow upgrade the Blood Bone Talent in the future, it would be incredibly powerful.
