C59 – Ti Controlling Power
“Zhao Sanduo got defeated by Loong Chen?”
An abrupt hush swept through the crowd. Even the elder, who had been keeping a low profile, couldn’t resist raising his head to cast a curious glance at Loong Chen.
“Are any of you up for a challenge in the cultivation room against ?”
Loong Chen fixed his icy gaze once more on Zhao Sanduo’s entourage and inquired in a frigid tone.
Feeling the chill in Loong Chen’s words, his followers promptly scattered.
If even Zhao Sanduo couldn’t asure up to Loong Chen, how could they dare to vie with him?
“Xiao Yan, I’ll take the cultivation room first.”
Loong Chen nodded towards Xiao Yan, then turned and extended the golden card to the elderly overseer of the cultivation room.
The elder, instead of accepting the golden card, raised his head and regarded Loong Chen with respect gleaming in his weathered eyes.
“I overheard what Zhao Sanduo said earlier. All the expenses incurred in the cultivation room will be deducted from his card, so you won’t need to pay any deposit.”
The elder inford him.
Loong Chen was mildly taken aback.
He had initially presud that this elder wouldn’t concern himself with such matters, but he hadn’t expected him to bring it up voluntarily.
“Very well, thank you, Elder.”
Loong Chen expressed his gratitude, took the key, and entered the cultivation room.
The cultivation room appeared rather ordinary, save for the additional training apparatus.
According to Xiao Yan, ti within the training room passed differently compared to the outside world, although Loong Chen couldn’t discern the difference.
“The current ti-flow ratio is 1:5 compared to the outside world.”
Suddenly, a voice resonated within the cultivation room.
“Ti flows five tis faster here?”
Loong Chen squinted his eyes, realizing that despite his days of cultivation in this special room, only a single day had passed in the outside world.
In essence, his cultivation speed had multiplied by five.
However, Loong Chen couldn’t discern any noticeable difference in the flow of ti between the room and the outside world. Upon careful consideration, he concluded that this was quite normal.
Ti remained an enigmatic concept. People weren’t even certain if it truly existed.
Who could genuinely perceive such a mysterious phenonon?
Loong Chen trusted Xiao Yan wouldn’t deceive him about this, so he chose not to dwell on it.
He resud his cultivation, diligently following the Trunch Technique to absorb the natural energy from the surroundings, fortifying his cells and genes.
Even though he had advanced to the Blood Devouring Devil Arts, this didn’t imply he should abandon the Trunch Technique.
The Blood Devouring Devil Arts focused on absorbing flesh and blood to enhance his Bloodline Power, while the Trunch Technique concentrated on absorbing natural energy to strengthen his genes. These two practices didn’t conflict.
“The Host has entered the cultivation state. All attributes*1.”
“The Host is in a cultivation state. All attributes*1.”
“Host entering cultivation state. All attributes*1.”
As the system notifications continued to chi, Loong Chen’s various attributes steadily increased.
Because the cultivation room existed beyond the concept of ti, Loong Chen had already stored food in his Dinsional Pocket, eliminating the need to leave.
Inside the room, he devoted himself to both eating and cultivating.
After an indefinite duration, the system’s notification abruptly disrupted Loong Chen’s cultivation focus.
“Attributes nearby that can be collected. Would you like to gather them?”
Loong Chen, whose eyes had been closed for a long ti, suddenly opened them.
Attributes nearby?
Loong Chen quickly scanned his surroundings and indeed spotted a luminous sphere not far away.
An intricate clock design was etched onto the luminous sphere.
“Go ahead, pick it up.”
Loong Chen’s face lit up with sudden realization, and he eagerly urged to seize it.
In the next instant, the system emitted another notification tone.
“Ding! Successful acquisition. Acquired Ti Extraordinary Talent Level 1.”
Ti Extraordinary Talent Level 1: Mastery over ti manipulation. Currently, it can only accelerate ti passage twofold.
In this cultivation chamber, he had chanced upon the Ti Extraordinary Talent!
His luck was truly exceptional!
If one could categorize extraordinary talents by tiers, standard elental extraordinary talents would be the lowest tier. For example, Earth Control and spatial extraordinary talents ranked slightly higher.
On the other hand, the Ti Extraordinary Talent surpassed even spatial extraordinary talents.
This was because controlling ti was more intricate than managing space.
Consequently, leveling up the Ti Extraordinary Talent would require significantly more empirical value.
Loong Chen examined the details: Advancing to the second tier demanded 50,000 empirical value, a staggering five tis more than the spatial extraordinary talent!
“Now that I possess the Ti Extraordinary Talent, even if I don’t stay in the cultivation chamber, my cultivation speed will double.”
Although it only accelerated ti twofold, it sufficed. Staying in the cultivation chamber for extended periods would incur substantial expenses.
Of course, Loong Chen had no need to worry about these expenses presently; Zhao Sanduo would bear the cost.
Letting the training chamber sit idle would be wasteful.
With this in mind, Loong Chen recomnced his cultivation.
After an indeterminate amount of ti, he once more erged from his ditative state, this ti roused by another person.
“Your allotted ti has been exhausted.”
At this mont, the overseer of the cultivation chamber approached Loong Chen.
“Aren’t the cultivation chamber expenses covered by Zhao Sanduo?” Loong Chen inquired with curiosity.
“Indeed, but you’ve been utilizing the cultivation chamber for ten days straight, and Zhao Sanduo’s Alliance credits have been depleted,” the overseer explained with a nonchalant shrug.
Over the course of ten days, at a rate of ten thousand Alliance credits per hour, that amounted to 2.4 million.
Zhao Sanduo wasn’t exceptionally affluent; he had rely exhausted his savings of 2.4 million.
“Zhao Sanduo has a clever streak. As soon as he regained consciousness, he promptly transferred all his Alliance credits from his account. If you hadn’t kept him unconscious for ten days, you wouldn’t have stayed here this long,” the overseer added, seemingly discerning Loong Chen’s thoughts.
Most likely, upon awakening and witnessing his dwindling Alliance credits, Zhao Sanduo hatched this sche.
“Very well,” Loong Chen sighed and departed from the cultivation chamber.
He had no knowledge of Xiao Yan’s whereabouts, but after spending such a prolonged period in the cultivation chamber, it was impractical to linger outside indefinitely.
“System, check my attributes.”
Loong Chen said in his heart.
Strength: 54,000 / 100
Speed: 50001 / 100
Agility: 51469 100
Defense: 52,500 / 100
Spirit: 50,000 / 100
Skills: Master level Saber technique (0 / 3200), Cat Shadow Step Level 5, Earth Superpower Level 1 (0 / 16,000), World Dominating Level 5, Psychokinesis Superpower Level 3 (0 / 4000), Blood Devouring Demon Attack Level 5 (0 / 32,000), Lightning Superpower Level 4 (0 / 80000), mirror image extraordinary talent Level 4 (0 / 40000), spatial extraordinary talent Level 1 (0 / 50000).
Empirical value: 2005
Ten days in the external world corresponded to fifty days within the cultivation chamber. In that span, Loong Chen had progressed to the Level 3 Mid Rank in terms of his physical aptitude.
Advancing from the Level 2 Mid Rank to the Level 3 Mid Rank was already an exceptionally rapid progression.
