Like [Danger Perception], after the special Destiny [Uncommon Victory] was promoted, it didn’t undergo too many changes, rely enhancing the damage amplification against demons.
Then, Shen Mo waved the Soul Refining Flag and summoned the late-stage Class III mutant Demon Soul General, the Ghost Bride.
After trying it on her, he found that augnting his offensive skills with the blue-quality [Uncommon Victory] more than doubled the damage dealt to the Demon Soul General compared to before.
Not bad! According to this upgrade rate... Once it’s promoted to Purple, even without employing any Mana, I can deal considerable damage to Third-order Heavenly Demons just by randomly slashing with my flying sword!
Shen Mo laughed as he withdrew the battered Ghost Bride back into the Soul Refining Flag. Instead of rushing to further upgrade [Uncommon Victory], he invested his Destiny Points into [Martial Performance (Blue)].
After trying a total of fifteen tis, on his sixteenth attempt, the panel finally returned a notification that filled Shen Mo with joy.
[You have successfully promoted your [Martial Performance] Destiny to [Martial Performance (Purple)] using your Destiny Points.]
[[Martial Performance (Purple)]: Equip this Destiny, and you can acquire the ability to deduce magic, cultivation thods, and martial arts. Expending sufficient Spirit Stones can quicken cultivation progress. Using enough Spirit Stones can advance a cultivation thod to the next stage.]
This...
Upon seeing the feedback clearly, a hint of ecstasy lit up Shen Mo’s face.
Originally, [Martial Performance (Blue)] could only assist his cultivation, accelerating his mastery of nurous techniques. Even so, it had bestowed him with terrifying combat power far exceeding his peers!
Now, after being upgraded to Purple, it actually unlocked a new function... advancing a cultivation thod to the next stage.
Judging from the na, it should be used to improve the grade of magic and martial arts!
Imdiately, Shen Mo equipped the [Martial Performance (Purple)] Destiny and began testing its exact effects.
[Do you wish to use 163,000 low-grade Spirit Stones to advance the ’Purple Mansion Heart Scripture’ to the next stage?]
Shen Mo was shocked and quickly refused.
What a joke! The Spirit Stones I’ve painstakingly accumulated, converted to low-grade Spirit Stones, only amount to just over one hundred thousand. I can’t afford to deduce the ’Purple Mansion Heart Scripture’ at all!
Try again!
Subsequently, Shen Mo began to test, one by one, the cost of deducing every cultivation thod and magic he possessed to the next stage.
[Do you wish to use 59,000 low-grade Spirit Stones to advance ’Heavenly Origin Technique’ to the next stage?]
[Do you wish to use 478,000 low-grade Spirit Stones to advance ’Mixed Yuan Qi Technique’ to the next stage?]
[Do you wish to use 215,000 low-grade Spirit Stones to advance ’Big Dipper Seven Star Sword Formation’ to the next stage?]
[Do you wish to use 25,000 low-grade Spirit Stones to advance ’Dragon Elephant Blood Fiend Body’ to the next stage?]
...
[Do you wish to use 70,000 low-grade Spirit Stones to advance ’Withering Pursuit Soul Palm’ to the next stage?]
[Do you wish to use 198,000 low-grade Spirit Stones to advance ’Sacrificial One Sword’ to the next stage?]
[Do you wish to use 633,000 low-grade Spirit Stones to advance ’Three-Heads Six-Arms True Immortal Technique’ to the next stage?]
Looking at a series of astronomical figures, Shen Mo fell into deep thought.
After contemplating for a while, he vaguely discerned so patterns in the costs of using [Martial Performance (Purple)] to deduce different cultivation thods to the next stage!
Firstly, the lower the original grade of a cultivation thod, the fewer Spirit Stones were needed to deduce it to the next stage. Secondly, whether it was magic or martial arts, the higher its conceptualization, the more imperfect the original technique, and the greater its potential for improvent... the fewer Spirit Stones were required! These two points need to be considered together and are not absolute.
For example, deducing the profound-level cultivation thod ’Heavenly Origin Technique’ required fewer Spirit Stones than deducing the spiritual-level cultivation thod ’Mixed Yuan Qi Technique’, by an order of magnitude.
Yet, when comparing ’Heavenly Origin Technique’ with ’Dragon Elephant Blood Fiend Body’, the cost for the forr was clearly higher!
The reason was simple. ’Heavenly Origin Technique’ was one of the basic cultivation thods of the Riverside Sect. Over a thousand years, it had been innovated and improved by countless Seniors, making it already polished to a state where it was extrely difficult to enhance.
Conversely, ’Dragon Elephant Blood Fiend Body’, despite being of a noticeably higher grade than ’Heavenly Origin Technique’, was not a complete cultivation thod; it lacked the subsequent cultivation thods for the Bloody Fiend Body.
On its original basis, deducing the cultivation thod for the Bloody Fiend Body was, conversely, not that difficult!
Similarly, take ’Withering Pursuit Soul Palm’ and ’Sacrificial One Sword’, both being Sacrificial Magic of similar grade and type. The forr originated from the ordinary immortal sect, Dark Soul Sect, while the latter ca from Heaven Sword Sect, one of the Five Great Sects.
After extensive refinent and innovation by the powerhouses of the Heaven Sword Sect, ’Sacrificial One Sword’ had also reached a point where it was extrely difficult to enhance.
In contrast, ’Withering Pursuit Soul Palm’ still had considerable room for improvent. Deducing it to the next stage was relatively easier, hence the much lower cost!
For cultivation thods that I haven’t yet cultivated to the pinnacle of the Epic standard, there’s currently no need to spend a vast amount of Spirit Stones to deduce them to the next stage. I just need to continue practicing them step by step! It won’t be too late to deduce them after I reach the Epic standard and can no longer continue cultivating them. As for the cultivation thods that have already reached Extrely Perfection and cannot be further refined, there are only five, including ’Purple Mansion Heart Scripture’ and ’Dragon Elephant Blood Fiend Body’. I can’t afford so many Spirit Stones for ’Purple Mansion Heart Scripture’ and ’Big Dipper Seven Star Sword Formation’ right now. Even if ’Supre Clarity Sword Technique’ and ’Thunderclap Rapid Step’ were upgraded by one level, the significance wouldn’t be great... Only for ’Dragon Elephant Blood Fiend Body’, deducing it to the next stage should complete the entire set of thods. And the cost of twenty-five thousand low-grade Spirit Stones is sothing I can afford!
After so contemplation, Shen Mo took out two hundred and fifty middle-grade Spirit Stones from his Universe Bag and piled them up in front of him.
With a slight stir of his mind, the feedback information arrived.
[Do you want to consu twenty-five thousand low-grade Spirit Stones to advance ’Dragon Elephant Blood Fiend Body’ to the next stage?]
"Yes. Begin!"
PUFF!
In the next instant, a golden radiance resembling an eye overflowed from between Shen Mo’s eyebrows, completely draining the Spiritual Qi contained in the pile of Spirit Stones.
Once the Spiritual Qi was exhausted, the pile of Spirit Stones quickly turned into powdered impurities.
The Martial Performance Body, existing in the Profound Space deep within his mind, also began to deduce the ’Dragon Elephant Blood Fiend Body’; unlike before, even more profound and abstruse insights continuously flooded Shen Mo’s mind.
Even his physical body beca enveloped in a peculiar, inexplicable aura...
Clam Girl Ming Yu, who was cultivating in the seawater, was also startled by the aura emanating from the Bamboo Pavilion. She couldn’t help but appear outside the bamboo hut, carefully perceiving the profundities within it.
[Through continuous comprehension and deduction, you have finally deduced ’Dragon Elephant Blood Fiend Body’ to a more profound level.]
Shen Mo abruptly opened his eyes. Within his soul, the subsequent cultivation thods for this technique, specifically for the Bloody Fiend Body stage, had clearly appeared!
