Chapter 626: Chapter 213: Madman Qin Feng! Fame Spreads Far, Light-Speed Growth, The 4th Cup
The next moment, a powerful yet gentle pressure materialized out of thin air.
The sensation was remarkably similar to the immense pressure he had endured while comprehending the Heaven-swallowing Fist Technique from the Inheritance Stone Stele.
However, the pressure from the Stone Stele had been violent and vast, like the might of the cosmos itself. Every moment of resistance had demanded his full effort, keeping his mind stretched taut.
The pressure from this Spirit Mushroom, on the other hand, was much gentler.
It was more like a warm, rising tide. Although it also brought a constant sense of oppression, it didn’t cause any unbearable, stinging pain. Instead, there was a comforting feeling of being tempered.
Under this beneficial pressure, the barriers around his three "cups" of Mental Power began to be slowly compressed and refined at a visible rate, growing ever more solid.
In the process, the total volume of his Mental Power was also continuously increasing.
"What a curious sensation."
Qin Feng savored the feeling. ’If I keep taking these, the rate of my Mental Power’s growth will be almost the same as when I was putting all my effort into comprehending the Heaven-swallowing Fist Technique.’
’Most importantly, this process doesn’t require me to actively guide or resist it at all. It’s basically a passive upgrade.’
This discovery brought a sincere smile to Qin Feng’s face.
For a cultivation fanatic like him, there was nothing more wonderful than being able to "level up while AFK."
He casually took out a few more Spirit Mushrooms and popped them into his mouth one by one, as if eating a snack.
’Hm, this doesn’t taste half bad. A bit like the dried blueberries from Morningstar.’
...
After packing up all his gains from the area, Qin Feng boarded his aircraft. Without a hint of nostalgia, he shot off like a streak of light, teleporting toward the second point of light marked on his map.
It was a metal ore vein located deep within the planet’s core.
The vein contained several rare alloys that were extremely hard to find in the outside world.
Qin Feng didn’t bother mining it. Instead, he plunged his "Star-Swallower" long spear directly into the ore vein.
Countless star-like patterns lit up on the spear’s dark shaft, and a powerful Devouring Power emanated from it. The metallic essence of the entire ore vein was completely absorbed by the long spear, like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea.
After devouring a massive amount of rare alloys, "Star-Swallower" showed no visible changes, but Qin Feng could feel that its internal structure seemed to have become heavier and more resilient.
...
After dealing with the second Resource Point, he rushed to the final marked location without stopping.
It was a hidden cave deep within an asteroid belt.
The cave’s interior was embedded with countless blood-red crystal stones that emanated an eerie light.
[Resource Name: Blood Crystal]
[Formation: A natural crystal formed over hundreds of millions of years when a celestial body rich in life elements is bombarded by high-energy particle streams from the cosmos.]
[Effect: Absorbing its energy can directly strengthen the physical constitution of a Planet-level Martial Artist. The more absorbed, the greater the enhancement. However, every living being has an absorption limit, which varies depending on the individual’s foundation.]
Reading the analysis provided by Hammer, Qin Feng’s eyes lit up as never before.
Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately sat down cross-legged in the cave and began a new round of deep, closed-door cultivation.
He took a Blood Crystal and held it in his palm.
The Psychic Core within his body began to operate slowly at a specific frequency.
The refinement method of the Canaan Scripture activated on its own. A powerful suction force emanated from his body, and the hard Blood Crystal melted at a visible rate, transforming into a stream of the purest sanguine energy that flowed up his arm and into every corner of his body.
An indescribable, scorching heat instantly spread throughout his entire body!
Qin Feng felt as if every one of his cells was cheering with hunger as the energy washed over them.
His bones trembled, his muscles tore and reformed, and the blood in his veins began to flow like rushing magma!
After the energy of the first Blood Crystal was completely absorbed, he could clearly feel his life force index skyrocketing!
It was working!
He immediately picked up a second, then a third...
Time lost all meaning during this tedious and painful process of tempering his physical body.
One year, two years, three years...
Inside the cave, Qin Feng’s figure remained motionless, like an eternal statue. The Blood Crystals beside him turned to dust, one after another. In the process, his aura grew deeper and more terrifying.
This long period of seclusion lasted for a full five years!
When Qin Feng had completely integrated the energy of the thousandth Blood Crystal into his body, he slowly opened his eyes.
A glint of light so tangible it was almost solid flashed from his eyes, searing two faint ripples into the empty space before him.
He slowly rose to his feet and clenched his fists.
CRACKLE—POP—
A series of sharp cracks, like popping soybeans, echoed from within his body. An unprecedented sense of terrifying power, as if he could shatter a planet with a single punch, filled his every cell.
"Five years, a thousand Blood Crystals..."
Qin Feng looked down at his hands and muttered to himself, "My physical strength has more than doubled compared to five years ago!"
What a terrifying improvement!
The value of this batch of Blood Crystals was simply inestimable.
Only after absorbing all the Blood Crystals did Qin Feng remember to turn his attention back to the Jade Token on the back of his hand.
’Five years have passed. I wonder what the state of the war is outside.’
He immersed his Mental Power into it, and the stream of information immediately refreshed.
