Chapter 471: Chapter 471: The Beginning of Ascension
Seven days later.
[Ice Needle Technique level up, free attribute points
1]
[Ice Needle Technique: LV9 (Trait: Frost Poison)]
[Frost Poison: Ice Needles carry frost poison, capable of damaging target muscle tissue and affecting blood flow speed]
Duke looked at the information that appeared in his mind, feeling sowhat relieved.
With the Ice Needle Technique reaching max level, it ant Duke finally gathered the last five free attribute points.
Without hesitation, Duke directly allocated all the remaining free attribute points to the Spirit attribute.
[Spirit: 145.3->150.3]
The mont his Spiritual Power broke through one hundred and fifty points, Duke clearly felt so changes happening in his mind, as if his mind had beco broader.
This is a quantitative change leading to a qualitative change.
In terms of numbers, it’s just an increase of a few points, but this value is the result of human observation, rely a convenience for asuring the strength of Spiritual Power.
But in reality, one hundred and fifty points is a checkpoint, and not everyone can break through this critical point.
The joy of breaking through the 150-point barrier in Spiritual Power lasted only a short ti.
Duke was very aware that this was just obtaining the entry ticket, the real test was about to begin.
To deal with various extre situations that could occur during the process of elental harmonization, especially the unpredictable consumption of Spiritual Power and energy backlash, he needed to prepare so suitable auxiliary Magic Potions.
These Magic Potions are different from the ones required for previous ascensions, not used to catalyze the ascension process but serve as auxiliary roles to help solve so problems that may be encountered during the ascension process.
Duke selected so suitable Magic Potions based on his situation.
He naturally wouldn’t refine them himself, as several Magic Potions were ones he had not previously encountered.
If he were to refine them himself, it would require learning from scratch, with high learning and ti costs.
Duke has channels through the Giant Rock Comrce Association, allowing him to directly obtain these Magic Potions, saving the ti and effort of refining potions himself.
He thought it wouldn’t be too late to learn how to refine these Magic Potions later when he had more ti.
Duke purchased various Magic Potions from the Giant Rock Comrce Association, such as Elental Harmonization Potion, Potent Spiritual Stability Elixir, Life’s Praise Magic Potion, and Song of the Tranquil Sea Magic Potion, all chosen based on his situation.
They were mostly related to elental harmonization, stabilizing Spiritual Power, repairing Spiritual Power damage, etc. These might not all be used, but it’s better to be prepared.
Over the past few months of simulation experints, Duke had encountered almost all possible unexpected situations.
Previously, it was just simulation experints, so even if an unexpected situation led to failure, it didn’t matter; he could just try again.
However, this ti Duke was formally preparing to ascend, allowing no room for failure; any unexpected situation must be imdiately addressed.
...
Three days later.
Duke spent three days preparing Magic Potions and other supplies, also adjusting his state to ensure his Spiritual Power was in the most stable and peaceful state.
He stood at the entrance of the underground laboratory on the deserted island, took one last look at the sunlit island, then resolutely turned and stepped into the dark underground corridor.
The heavy door slowly closed behind him, sealing all noise and disturbances outside.
Kobold Reid and the Three-headed Magma Lizard guarded near the entrance, fully prepared to prevent any interference with Duke’s life, including those slave creatures on the island.
The Storm Dragon Eagle soared high in the sky, overlooking the surrounding sea, ready to control everything around to protect Duke.
Inside the underground laboratory, energy lights turned on one by one, illuminating Duke’s calm yet determined face.
He walked to the center of the Void Crystal Stone platform, sat cross-legged, and placed the container holding five Crystal Cores and the tal box of the Soul Soothing Holy Contract within reach.
Duke took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
"Let’s begin."
The first thing he did was activate the precious Soul Soothing Holy Contract fragnt.
A gentle yet powerful force instantly spread out, enveloping his entire Spiritual Sea in a comforting stable force field.
A deep resonance sound, not heard through the ears but echoing directly in the depth of the soul, rang out.
The fragnt, neither gold nor jade, floated up from the tal box in front of him. The ancient and incomprehensible holy runes on it seed to be infused with life, lighting up one by one, emitting a soft yet undeniable milky white radiance.
This light was not blinding but carried an inexplicable force of order seemingly originating from the world’s beginning.
It flowed like rcury, silently perating into Duke’s Spiritual Sea.
Although Duke was in a ditation and Cultivation state, the Spiritual Sea was not absolutely calm, always having subtle ripples, subconscious activities, and the faint fluctuations caused by energy exchanges with the outside world.
Under the radiance of the Soul Soothing Holy Contract, Spiritual Power beca extrely peaceful and stable, almost with no possibility of losing control.
It was like an invisible hand smoothing out the slightly rippled water surface, instantly turning it into a smooth, mirror-like plane, free of traces.
An unprecedented calm descended, not a deathly stillness but a highly stable and highly contained state.
The boundary of the Spiritual Sea seed reinforced, with the internal structure becoming exceptionally resilient.
Duke felt his mind had never been so clear and focused, as if all distracting thoughts and external interferences were blocked out, leaving only him and the grand project about to begin in his mind.
The Soul Soothing Holy Contract laid the most solid foundation for this risky ascension.
Duke wasted no ti savoring this wondrous state, knowing the Contract’s effects were ti-limited, and imdiately began the second step, which was introducing the Crystal Cores.
First was the absolute core, the Light Divine Status. Duke carefully wrapped it with Spiritual Power, guiding it to enter the center of the Spiritual Sea.
Once the Divine Status entered the space stabilized by the Soul Soothing Holy Contract, it spontaneously emitted a gentle and vast radiance, like a fixed anchor or the star of a galaxy, instantly becoming the absolute center and ruler of the entire spiritual world.
It showed no rejection of the contract’s power, seemingly complenting it.
This step was completed with ease. Despite the Divine Status being the highest ranking among the six Crystal Cores, it was already part of Duke, allowing easy control.
Following the sequence simulated countless tis, he began absorbing the energy of the other Crystal Cores.
Duke picked up the Cyan Mist Core, with Spiritual Power wrapping around it like fine threads, extracting a strand of pure Wind Attribute Energy from it.
