Inside the safe house, Li Wei took out the Soul Crystal.
’How do I absorb this Soul Crystal?’
Li Wei placed the Soul Crystal in his hand and tried to activate it with his Spiritual Power to absorb the Power within.
Failure.
After a mont of thought, he put the Soul Crystal in his mouth.
The Soul Crystal lted the mont it entered his mouth, turning into a pool of liquid that slid down his throat.
After a short wait, he felt his body expanding, and a pleasant warmth spread through him.
A few minutes later, the feeling of expansion disappeared.
He looked down, but his body hadn’t changed. The sensation from before seed like an illusion.
’The Soul Crystal’s power isn’t used up yet.’
Li Wei could feel a stream of Power, like a trickle of water, slowly flowing out from within him, nourishing his soul.
’My Spiritual Power has increased.’
He extended his Spiritual Power, its maximum range now approaching fourteen ters.
The improvent was very noticeable.
Without the Soul Crystal, it would have probably taken another half a month of Cultivation for his Spiritual Power’s range to reach fourteen ters.
Realizing it would take a long ti to fully absorb the Soul Crystal, Li Wei put away the remaining two and exited the Dream World.
Opening his eyes, Li Wei subconsciously turned to look out the window.
Outside, the sky was just beginning to lighten.
He was a little surprised.
He had thought it was nearly dawn when he decided to leave the Dream World.
He hadn’t expected it to be this early.
’My sense of ti still isn’t very accurate.’
Seeing this, Li Wei didn’t feel like going back to sleep.
He got up, walked to his study, and sat down on the ditation cushion to cultivate.
The cushion was woven from the vines of a plant that could calm the mind.
Gu Ze had given it to him.
A while back, Gu Ze had seen Li Wei frequently cultivating in the study but noticed the room lacked any proper equipnt.
So he had given him a cultivation cushion.
He’d heard it wasn’t cheap, either.
Li Wei took out a Low Level Magic Potion and poured it into his mouth.
’This is the last of it. It’s all gone.’
Li Wei put down the Magic Potion vial, and his Shadow Attendant lit the Calming Incense.
After he entered ditation, the Shadow Attendant waited a mont before extinguishing the Calming Incense.
In reality, leaving the Calming Incense lit was more beneficial for Cultivation.
The effect of the Calming Incense wasn’t just to speed up entering ditation.
It also helped to accelerate Cultivation.
Previously, when Li Wei cultivated the Basic ditation thod, lighting the Calming Incense could increase his Cultivation efficiency by twenty to thirty percent.
Now, the effect of the Calming Incense on him was greatly diminished.
Compared to the Magic Potion, the effect of the Calming Incense was almost negligible.
Li Wei only used it when entering ditation now.
Cultivating the Crystal ditation thod involved visualizing his body as a Crystal, constantly removing impurities from within it to purify his Spiritual Power.
Today, Li Wei found that the effects of cultivating the Crystal ditation thod were exceptionally good.
Both absorbing Magic Elents to cultivate Mana and removing impurities to purify his Spiritual Power felt easier.
After carefully sensing it, he discovered a surge of Power welling up from within him.
’The Soul Crystal?’
The thought flashed through Li Wei’s mind.
His visualization wavered. Li Wei quickly cast aside the distracting thought and focused on his Cultivation.
Three hours later, Li Wei finished his Cultivation.
He opened his eyes, feeling full of energy. He didn’t feel the ntal exhaustion and listlessness that usually ca after over-cultivating.
Li Wei glanced at the ti and was surprised to find he had cultivated for half an hour longer than usual.
’The Soul Crystal has such a miraculous effect!’
’What a fantastic item!’
During the day, Li Wei further investigated the value of the Rock Demon Beast’s Demon Core.
This was so he could bargain with Tanya that night.
His Magic Potions were depleted, so Li Wei naturally hoped to sell the core tomorrow and get the money as soon as possible.
Li Wei didn’t ask the Magic Butler about the Rock Demon Beast’s bounty.
He went directly to the Professional Association’s center to check the bounty rewards for himself.
There were many bounties posted, with the highest reward for the task reaching 138 Gold Coins.
Many Professionals were tempted.
Unfortunately, they had no idea where to start.
"Hey, Brad. I heard you guys were the ones who ran into the Rock Demon Beast?"
"Yeah. What about it?"
"You really don’t know who took the Rock Demon Beast’s Demon Core?"
"I don’t."
"Stop asking , it’s so annoying! Countless people have been asking about this lately."
"Alright, alright, I won’t bother you then."
"Hmph! What a fucking idiot, losing sothing so precious!"
The Professional who was walking away muttered to his companion.
Brad heard him, but his expression didn’t change.
He had heard too many similar comnts recently.
Even Allen and Martin had personally co to ask him about it.
Brad was truly at a loss.
Many people suspected that he had secretly taken the Demon Core.
He was the first person to approach the battlefield after the fight ended.
His shouts at the ti had been heard by many.
When Li Wei saw Brad, he turned and walked away.
He now had a good idea of the Demon Core’s maximum price.
At night, Li Wei slipped into the dream.
Standing by the window of his dream study, he saw a sea of stars outside.
That was the River of Dreams.
The rising and falling stars were all Dream Bubbles, each one a world of illusion, birth, and change.
As he went deeper into the dream, the safe house also arrived at the River of Dreams.
He could see it, but not touch it.
The door was the only passage.
Li Wei wasn’t in a hurry to see Tanya.
He stayed in his room, practicing Magic.
Judging by his practice progress, he determined that it was now late into the night.
Only then did Li Wei leave the safe house and go to the River of Dreams.
He sensed the location of the Wandering God Association’s Dream Bubble.
As long as you had visited a Dream Bubble once, you could sense its location until it shattered and reford.
He arrived at the Wandering God Association.
Li Wei saw Tanya.
Tanya said, "One hundred and eighty Gold Coins. That’s my limit."
Li Wei thought for a mont, then nodded. "Deal. Five o’clock this afternoon. Bring the money to the top of the mountain in Dark Valley."
She nodded. "Mm, okay."
Tanya looked at him and asked, "Can you tell your na?"
Li Wei looked at her without speaking.
They stared at each other through his mask for a mont before Li Wei looked away.
"If fate allows, we’ll et again."
After saying that, Li Wei directly exited the dream.
He returned to the safe house to practice Magic.
Based on his previous experience practicing Magic, Li Wei exited the dream when he felt his proficiency had progressed enough.
His consciousness returned to his body. Before he even opened his eyes, Li Wei sensed that it was dark outside.
He opened his eyes in surprise and glanced out the window.
A crescent moon hung in the sky, its light illuminating the land.
It was still the middle of the night.
Li Wei focused his gaze on the desk, where the wood grain twisted to form words.
[Mage’s Hand (Tier Zero Great Success)] 1230/8000
The proficiency numbers didn’t lie.
He had indeed spent an entire night in the dream.
But in reality, it was still the middle of the night.
After a mont of thought, Li Wei understood the reason.
The flow of ti in the Second Dream World was faster than in reality.
One day in reality could be more than a day in the Second Dream World.
The exact difference in the rate of ti flow would require more ti to verify.
Seeing this, Li Wei returned to the dream once more to practice Magic.
When he returned to reality again, it was already early morning.
’The ti flow in the Second Dream World is about 1.5 tis faster than in reality.’
He deduced this result from the progress of his proficiency.
[Mage’s Hand (Tier Zero Great Success)] 1890/8000
Usually, pulling an all-nighter to practice Magic would increase his proficiency by 1,200 or 1,300 at most.
Today, his proficiency had increased by nearly two thousand in a single night.
The flow of ti in the Second Dream World was indeed faster!
