The power of a Middle-Grade Spirit Stone was soon fully absorbed. The stone turned into powder and slipped through Lu Ye’s fingers. He quickly took out another Spirit Stone, and the result was the sa.
Following the Tree of Glyphs’ transformation, it could now absorb the power of Spirit Stones. It couldn’t do that in the past. Previously, the tree could only absorb Fire-Attribute power like that of Flas of Earthen Spirits and Fire Spirit Stones. It wouldn’t react to any power that wasn’t of Fire Attribute.
However, after the transformation, the Tree of Glyphs’ abilities had fundantally changed. The power it could absorb was no longer limited to Fire Attribute.
If a Real Lake Realm Master had to consu the power of a Middle-Grade Spirit Stone, it would take him half a day to do so. But in Lu Ye’s hands, its power was fully consud in a short ti.
This ant that Lu Ye could now absorb the power within the Spirit Stones at an incredible speed. The ti it would take him to increase his power or recuperate would be reduced significantly.
In other words, an average cultivator in the sa Realm was no match for Lu Ye when it ca to the cultivation of power or recuperation. Lu Ye could do it dozens of tis faster.
With the existence of Spirit Gathering Funnels, he could already cultivate his power much faster than cultivators in the sa Realm. His efficiency would be further enhanced since he had acquired this new skill.
With improved efficiency in increasing his power, it would take him a shorter ti to reach a higher Realm. This was a wonderful thing for any cultivator.
Nevertheless, while absorbing the power of Spirit Stones, Lu Ye also discovered that the fuel within the Tree of Glyphs was decreasing quickly too.
It seed that the Fire Spiritual Power stored within the Tree of Glyphs wasn’t just fuel that could burn away impurities. It was also a source of energy for the tree.
After all, the power from Spirit Stones was pure and almost had no impurities, so the Tree of Glyphs didn’t need to refine anything. However, the fuel was still decreasing quickly, which allowed Lu Ye to figure out what was going on.
He didn’t notice such a matter in the past because he couldn’t detect how much fuel was left. Also, he didn’t have this cultivation thod back then.
In that case, if he wanted to make use of Spirit Stones to increase his cultivation speed, he would need to consu Fire Spirit Stones as well.
At that mont, he was glad that he had made a deal with Qian Wudang in Grand Sky City back then. Otherwise, the Fire Spirit Stones in his possession would be used up soon.
Initially, he only needed Fire Spirit Stones to unlock the Glyphs on the Tree of Glyphs. Although a lot of Fire Spirit Stones were required, he only needed a sufficient amount of the items.
However, if the items were used for cultivation, there wouldn’t be an end. In such a situation, having a stable way to obtain Fire Spirit Stones was crucial.
As more and more Middle-Grade Spirit Stones were consud, Yi Yi and Amber were dumbfounded. They had no idea how Lu Ye could consu the Spirit Stones so rapidly.
Lu Ye had no intention of explaining anything to them for now, but when he caught sight of Amber munching on a Mutant Core, a bold idea ford in his mind.
While Amber was puzzled, Lu Ye extended his hand into the Storage Bag hung from the tiger’s neck and took out a Mutant Core. Then, he activated the Tree of Glyphs, after which roots appeared and engulfed the Mutant Core.
The next second, imnse power was derived from the Mutant Core and infused into Lu Ye’s body. The Tree of Glyphs refined and purified the power until it beca pure enough.
[It works!] Lu Ye was astounded. It was rely an idea that ca out of nowhere. Since the power that the Tree of Glyphs could absorb was no longer limited to Fire Attribute, it could now draw in the power of Spirit Stones as well. In that case, could the tree do the sa to Mutant Cores? Much to Lu Ye’s surprise, the idea was feasible.
Noticing the Mutant Core’s changes in Lu Ye’s hand, Yi Yi covered her mouth in shock while Amber’s eyes widened.
There was no doubt the power stored in a Mutant Core was more imnse than that in a Middle-Grade Spirit Stone. After all, it was the essence of a Mutant’s cultivation, so a Middle-Grade Spirit Stone wasn’t comparable to it at all.
Despite that, it still dried up in just several minutes. What was left in Lu Ye’s hand was a withered and impure thing the size of a jujube core.
Lu Ye was ecstatic. After the transformation, the power the Tree of Glyphs could suck in was no longer limited to Fire Attribute. It could do that to Spirit Stones and Mutant Cores. Naturally, it would work on Spirit Pills as well.
[Can it absorb the Spiritual Power of a cultivator as well?] As soon as the horrifying idea sprang into Lu Ye’s mind, he cast it away.
Although he was almost certain that the Tree of Glyphs could absorb the Spiritual Power of a cultivator, it was no different from cannibalism if he did that. Naturally, he couldn’t bring himself to do that.
He reminded himself to never do that. Once that happened, there would probably be dire consequences.
Amber watched vigilantly as Lu Ye fished out another Mutant Core from the tiger’s Storage Bag and examined it. A mont later, he directly tossed it into his mouth.
Whenever he saw Amber munching on the Mutant Core, he was curious about what it tasted like.
Unable to take it anymore, Yi Yi exclaid, “Lu Ye!”
Amber’s eyes almost popped out of its sockets. [How can you eat the Mutant Core, Master? It’s my snack!]
As the Mutant Core was getting crushed in Lu Ye’s mouth, he discovered that it tasted good. There wasn’t any strange taste.
After he gulped everything down, he activated the Tree of Glyphs’ power as roots appeared in his stomach and absorbed the Mutant Core’s power. Gluttonous Feast was also running as a buzzing sound was heard.
In just a short mont, the Mutant Core’s power was fully digested. It was more efficient than when he held the Mutant Core in his hand and let the Tree of Glyphs suck in its power.
“Are you alright, Lu Ye?” Yi Yi asked with concern. She had no idea why Lu Ye behaved strangely all of a sudden.
Mutant Cores were usually used to make pills or build Wards. Mutants would also eat Mutant Cores of the sa Attribute. However, she had never heard that Humans could eat these things.
“I’m fine.” Lu Ye placated her. “I have a new skill to digest it. Don’t worry.”
Upon hearing that, Yi Yi set her mind at ease. However, she still monitored Lu Ye closely, worried that sothing would go wrong.
Lu Ye extended his hand again, so Amber hurriedly covered the Storage Bag with its paws and looked pleadingly at the man. [I only have a few Mutant Cores left. Stop taking it!]
He glowered at Amber, who reluctantly put down its paws.
Although the Tree of Glyphs’ transformation never increased Lu Ye’s power, its new abilities allowed him to have new cultivation thods and improve his cultivation efficiency.
That way, his growth in power would far surpass that of cultivators in the sa generation. This was unimaginably beneficial. Compared with an increase in power, this kind of transformation would benefit Lu Ye for life, and it was sothing he craved.
However, it also ca with a huge cost that he had to pay for. Anyway, he decided not to think about it for now.
Since the Tree of Glyphs’ transformation had been completed, he was in a jovial mood. He decided to reward himself by cultivating his power. It had been quite a while since he ascended to the First-Order Real Lake Realm. It was rare to have such a quiet cultivation environnt, and he had more ways to cultivate his power. Therefore, he wanted to make it to the Second-Order Real Lake Realm as quickly as he could.
He connected his soul to the Heavens, after which a swirl of Spiritual Qi appeared in front of him. Pure World Spiritual Qi erged from the swirl and engulfed the three of them.
After adjusting it to the level suitable for him, Lu Ye continued to absorb the power of Fire Spirit Stones to replenish the fuel for the Tree of Glyphs while building Spirit Gathering Funnels.
Yi Yi’s eyes seed to be out of focus as she looked at the swirl where World Spiritual Qi ca from. “Lu Ye, where do you think this swirl leads to? What’s behind it?”
“Who knows?” Lu Ye replied nonchalantly. “I’ve heard that the swirls are supposedly connected to ley lines or spiritual veins of different Grades, which is why inexhaustible World Spiritual Qi is coming out of them, allowing cultivators to refine it.”
This could be considered common knowledge, but no one could verify it so far. That was because even the Divine Ocean Realm Masters couldn’t extend their Divine Egos into the swirls and find out what was on the other end.
Nevertheless, every river had a source, and every tree had its roots. It wasn’t possible that such rich World Spiritual Qi appeared out of thin air. There had to be a source.
Therefore, most cultivators in Jiu Zhou acknowledged that the swirls were connected to ley lines or spiritual veins of different Grades.
Out of nowhere, Yi Yi had a wild idea. “If we can pass through this swirl, does it an we can cultivate our powers in a ley line or a spiritual vein?”
A laugh escaped Lu Ye. “That’s a good idea, but we need to have a way to do that.”
Even Divine Ocean Realm Masters couldn’t find out what was on the other end using their Divine Egos. How were they supposed to pass through it?
While chuckling, Lu Ye suddenly fell into a dazed state. Another bold idea sprang into his mind.
[A Divine Ocean Realm Master’s Divine Ego can’t penetrate the swirl, but can the Tree of Glyphs extend its roots into it? If it can do that…]
At the thought of this, Lu Ye couldn’t hold in his curiosity any longer. He pressed his hand against the swirl.
Yi Yi had no idea what he was doing, so she only looked on curiously. On the other hand, Amber poured out the Mutant Cores from its Storage Bag and counted them with a dejected expression. However, the tiger didn’t have enough claws to count them.
anwhile, as a thought flashed across Lu Ye’s mind, a root only he could see appeared from his palm and entered the swirl.
Following the transformation, Lu Ye could finally feel the Tree of Glyphs’ presence. Therefore, he could detect the extension of the roots as well. The roots were like his tentacles.
Since the root didn’t erge from the other side of the swirl, it ant that it had successfully extended into the swirl.
Suddenly, Lu Ye appeared shocked. He could feel trendous World Spiritual Qi on the other end of the swirl.
The root was sensitive. The Spirit Mist around him was so dense that it was about to turn into liquid. The unique cultivation environnt he had created as a Real Lake Realm Master wasn’t comparable to what was on the other end of the swirl.
