113: The roar of the formation master, this wave is really a huge loss!
Talent: Time Jump
Rank: S-Rank
Effect: You gain a two-fold time acceleration effect, with duration determined by your internal energy.
After Time Jump was upgraded to S-Rank, the ten-second duration limit was removed.
Instead, the duration of Time Jump became dependent on the amount of energy consumed.
As the Rank increases and the total internal energy increases, the duration of Time Jump will naturally also increase.
But!
Although this talent is only an S-Rank Talent, the proportion of energy consumed is terrifyingly high.
As the saying goes, time is king.
Any talent involving time or space consumes an enormous amount of energy.
For Xia Qi, in his current state, when running a dungeon, one minute of Time Jump would completely deplete his internal energy.
So, under normal circumstances, unless it was a boss battle, Xia Qi would occasionally use the Time Jump talent.
Or when attending classes with Teacher Lina.
He hardly ever used it in daily life.
What can you do in one minute? Those who know, know.
However, it's different now. The Elementary skill Cultivation room is full of energy, so Xia Qi can fully utilize Time Jump while attempting skill Cultivation.
Sure enough, after this crazy idea was born, the time flow within the Cultivation room's space became half of the normal speed.
As the saying goes, my acceleration equals your deceleration.
In the eyes of others, time flows normally.
But in Xia Qi's eyes, he now had twice the amount of time.
Furthermore, three layers of internal energy remained, reaching a balanced relationship with the energy absorption within the Cultivation room.
"It actually worked for me?"
Xia Qi felt everything around him with a pleasant surprise.
He began to cast various Spells to enhance his skill proficiency and usage techniques.
But he didn't know that in the huge energy crystal room in the lower space of the Cultivation room.
The energy crystals of an Elementary Cultivation room were rapidly being consumed.
Time flew by, and soon, Xia Qi had spent a full hour in the Cultivation room.
But in the outside world, only half an hour had passed.
Xia Qi was excited, continuously casting Spells.
Fire Sea surging!
Wild winds howling!
Frenzy Lightning rampaging!
Water overflowing Jinshan!
...
Scenes of various Elemental Power bursts alternated before his eyes.
Each scene represented the power of an element.
Even if some Elemental Power talents were currently only S-Rank, it did not affect their terrifying power in the slightest.
Within the nine-hundred-square-meter space, a Heaven-Defying Spell attack occurred almost every few seconds.
Feeling the exhilarating full-power casting, the usually calm Xia Qi couldn't help but get excited at this moment.
"These one hundred points were really not wasted. In this hour, I have mastered all the elemental skills I currently possess."
"Even..."
Xia Qi stood suspended in mid-air, colorful light constantly swirling in his eyes.
The next second, Nine Heavens Thunderclap activated, simultaneously, Fire Sea emerged from the ground, strong winds condensed from the center, and a vast ocean surged in from all directions.
He had mastered the technique of simultaneously casting several Elemental Power ultimate moves.
Ding! You have comprehended the skill: Element Coexistence.
Ding! You have comprehended the skill: Quick Casting.
Element Coexistence: You can simultaneously convert four types of Elemental Power, and the Elemental Power coexist without interfering with each other.
Quick Casting: Any Elemental Power skill you cast will be faster.
After comprehending these two skills, Xia Qi could almost seamlessly link several ultimate moves.
Sword techniques excluded!
This way, when facing new dungeons, Xia Qi's attack methods became very diverse.
No matter what Element Resistance the monster had, there was always an elemental attribute that countered it.
For groups of monsters, especially those with large numbers, Element Coexistence and Quick Casting were Divine-Grade skills for efficient map clearing.
Xia Qi was very satisfied with these two skills.
It could be said that these one hundred points were not wasted.
Xia Qi wasn't idle for the remaining hour either.
He continued to try to store more Elemental Power within his body, striving to achieve Element Coexistence for all elements.
However, things did not go as he expected. All elements could not coexist within his body; instead, the elemental energy within him began to become restless, and each element seemed to have its own ideas, completely beyond Xia Qi's control.
Not only could he not control four elements, but even single elements were affected, greatly reducing the efficiency and power of his Spell casting.
"It seems I can't get fat in one bite."
Xia Qi landed on the ground with a wry smile, his skill training was over.
He quickly stabilized the restless elemental energy within him and reconverted it into a single talent.
The elemental conflict within his body then subsided.
However, it wasn't without any gains. In the last two minutes of the training room session, a new prompt sounded again.
Ding! You have comprehended the skill Element Resistance.
Element Resistance (Level 1) Passive Skill: Your resistance to elemental attacks is increased by fifty percent.
That's right, Xia Qi's eyes were not mistaken.
He really didn't expect that by a strange twist of fate, he had comprehended another Heaven-Defying passive skill.
Element Resistance!
Thus, even if he faced an SSS-Rank Elemental Power Awakening, he seemed to have nothing to fear.
This skill was equivalent to reducing elemental damage by fifty percent.
It belonged to a very top-tier defensive skill.
"Awesome, SS-grade Luck and SS-grade Comprehension Ability are Heaven-Defying. I didn't boost you for nothing."
Xia Qi clenched his fist. These two Divine-Grade passive talents truly brought him too many surprises.
This was the benefit of investing early.
The returns were now pouring in continuously.
However, although it was refreshing, Xia Qi's spirit was somewhat listless after a series of battles and Cultivation.
In this situation, it was like grinding dungeons non-stop for an entire day, leaving him dizzy and disoriented.
Xia Qi quickly left the skill Cultivation room. If he stayed any longer, he feared he would faint inside.
Breathing fresh air after a long time, Xia Qi took a deep breath, shook his groggy head, and left under the surprised gaze of the Cultivation room administrator.
"These young people nowadays, they're like this after only an hour of Cultivation. One would think they pulled several all-nighters."
The administrator, a middle-aged man, shook his head and sighed as he watched Xia Qi's retreating figure.
It was precisely at this moment that the Formation Master, who was normally responsible for guarding the energy crystals underground, rushed up in a hurry.
"Who just used Cultivation Room 888?"
"Oh, he left not long ago. What's wrong?"
The administrator scratched the back of his head, confused.
"How many points did you charge him?"
The Formation Master asked exasperatedly.
"One hundred points per hour. Are you seriously ill today? This is the school's rule."
As he finished speaking, the Formation Master, enraged, grabbed the administrator by the collar and roared,
"I don't care who he is, put him on the blacklist! That kid used a whole day's worth of energy in just one hour!"
"I'm going to lose a fortune..."
