Chapter 326: Bottleneck = Progress Bar
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Ever since Lu Ming started cultivating, he had never encountered any bottlenecks.
For Lu Ming, the bottlenecks that others faced were like jokes, as he could easily surpass them.
However, this time, Lu Ming realized that he probably might not avoid the bottleneck of the blood pattern.
He could only wait until he returned and see what the system had to say about it.
Just as Lu Ming was about to take his leave, Jiu Han spoke again.
“There’s another matter.
“Teacher, please go on.”
“Do you remember what 1 mentioned to you before, the path that belongs exclusively to you?”
Lu Ming immediately nodded, “Of course 1 remember.”
If he could mobilize the Divine Source within his body, Lu Ming would become an Outer Dao God! He would have strength comparable to that of a god!
“I have an idea.”
After saying this, Jiu Han immediately added, “However, this path requires profound knowledge of array formations. Not only me, but you also have to master the Dao of array formations.”
Lu Ming was slightly stunned and fell into deep thought.
Jiu Han continued, “If you want, don’t miss any morning classes from now on. I’ll teach you array formation knowledge during the morning classes. You can also self-study in the library on this subject.”
“Of course, I understand that you might feel learning about array formations will delay your cultivation. But 1 believe it’s worth it.”
With that said, Jiu Han paused and continued, “The choice is up to you.”
As he spoke, he turned around and walked out the door.
On the way back, Lu Ming was still pondering these two issues.
The first was the problem of the blood pattern bottleneck.
The second was the problem of the Dao of array formations.
By the time he returned to his cultivation room, Lu Ming had roughly sorted out his thoughts.
“I’ll just grind the bottleneck and learn the Dao of array formations.”
In any case, Lu Ming did not seem to have any other choice.
“But 1 still need to see what the system has to say first.”
Perhaps the system could provide Lu Ming with a perfect and satisfactory solution?
His consciousness sank into the Void Space and he took out the Origin Scripture’s Source Power Skill Sealing Ball. Soon, Lu Ming grasped the cultivation method of the Origin Scripture.
This body forging technique was indeed as Jiu Han had said. It came from the same source as the Spirit Refinement Technique. It was a body forging technique where the higher the concentration of Source Power, the faster the cultivation.
As a Source Realm body forging technique, the attribute points provided by the Origin Scripture to Lu Ming were also ten times that of the Spirit Refinement Technique!
Upon entry, there was a loo-point attribute point gain for each cycle.
Lu Ming immediately started cultivating.
A few hours of real-time later, Lu Ming ended his cultivation and opened his attribute panel.
His attributes came into view.
Name: Lu Ming
Level: Physique Realm, Level 5.
Strength: 100 million
Physique: 100 million
Agility: 100 million.
Free attribute points: 100 million.
Divine Source Points: 163
And 100 million three-dimensional attributes was the limit mentioned by Jiu Han…
After Lu Ming reached this limit, no matter how much he cultivated the body forging technique, he could not increase a single bit of his physical strength, and even the free attribute points could not be raised.
However, he could still absorb Divine Source Points.
“As for the bottleneck…”
Lu Ming muttered and looked at the column below.
He saw that at some point, a line of text had appeared below the attributes.
[Blood Patterns Bottleneck: 0.001%]
[Note: You can use one Divine Source Point to increase your progress by 10%.]
Admittedly, when Lu Ming saw this line of text, he could not help but feel a bit amused.
The crying point was that this blood pattern bottleneck seemed really difficult to break through.
The laughing point was that the system had actually created a progress bar for this bottleneck.
“Well then….”
It was fine as long as there was a progress bar.
With a progress bar, I’ll show you how I can max it out!
As for using divine source points to increase the bottleneck progress, Lu Ming thought about it but decided not to do so.
If he could farm it, he would farm it. If he could not, he would cheat and add points.
The days returned to normal.
Speaking of which, ever since Lu Ming came to the Three Forms Academy, he seemed to have been quite calm. Although his cultivation speed had increased several times, all in all, this was not really a disturbance.
Every morning, he attended the morning class, listened to Jiu Han explain array formation knowledge along with Lin Feng. In his free time, Lu Ming would also go to the library to read books, constantly enriching himself.
Although it delayed the attribute grinding a bit, there was a saying about a balance between work and rest, so learning about array formations could be considered a form of relaxation.
A week later, in the Void Space, after using the newly learned Ancient Realm Body Forging technique, the Ancient Divine Nerve to polish the bottleneck, the progress bar had already reached 15.76%.
The progress was relatively fast.
After ending the cultivation of the Body Forging technique, Lu Ming sat cross-legged again. Source Power splashed out from his fingertips and following Lu Ming’s will, danced in the air, forming lines, one after another.
At this moment, Lu Ming was fully focused and concentrated.
Soon, with the lines orderly arranged, a simple Gathering Source Formation took shape.
Seeing the shining array formation, Lu Ming could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
“It’s finally done.”
In the past week, besides reading books, Lu Ming had been studying the basic knowledge of array formations during classes. However, he had to admit that the subject covered a lot, and many things had to be learned from the basics.
As a result, it was only until today that Lu Ming was barely able to personally set up the simplest Gathering Source Formation.
“But where there’s a will, there’s a way. Once I’ve got the hang of it, nothing will be a problem for me.”
He opened his attribute panel and scrolled down to the skill column.
It was clearly seen that as Lu Ming set up the Source Gathering Formation, the attribute panel had recorded it.
Array Formation Ivi (1/1000).
Array formation belonged to miscellaneous studies, so it did not provide attribute bonuses. However, it was the proficiency requirements that made Lu Ming furrow his brows.
“It seems a little difficult to upgrade this thing…”
After thinking for a moment, Lu Ming once again focused and constructed a Source Gathering Formation.
Proficiency+1.
This thing was much harder to obtain than cultivating body forging techniques.
But Lu Ming did not mind.
Since the days were peaceful, he had plenty of time.
And time was Lu Ming’s best friend!
At the same time, Jiu Han’s research reached a stalemate.
There was too much Divine Source in the inner layer of the Divinity.
Every time Lu Ming drained it, a wisp of liquid Divine Source would surge out from the inner layer of the Divinity.
After countless repetitions, there was no sign that this thing would be used up.
However, even the seawater was not endless.
As long as Lu Ming was around, he would eventually be able to pry open the inner layer of the divinity and see the true appearance of this so-called divinity.
In fact, Jiu Han already had some vague guesses about the true appearance of the divinity. Every time the energy of the divinity was exhausted and liquid Divine Source surged out from the inner layer, Jiu Han could catch a glimpse of the deep structure of the inner layer of the divinity.
However, he could not see clearly, so Jiu Han did not dare to make a judgment.
Just then, the voice of his clone sounded in his ear.
“There’s a disturbance at the frontline battlefield, return quickly.”
Jiu Han frowned.
After thinking for a moment, he suddenly sighed.
“Speaking of this battle, it started inexplicably for unknown reasons…”
“Eternity, and the leader of the subversives hidden behind the scenes… What are you fighting this battle for, and what do you all know?”
Jiu Han did not understand..
