59: Chapter 59 A Thousandfold Increase

"Thank you, Grandmaster!"

Yang Juncheng reached out to catch the Top-Grade Spirit Stone and the Soul Stone, thanking Su Ze with an expression of excitement.

The Spiritual Qi contained within a Top-Grade Spirit Stone was extremely pure and powerful.

A single Top-Grade Spirit Stone could be exchanged for one hundred High-Grade Spirit Stones, ten thousand Medium-Grade Spirit Stones, or one million Low-Grade Spirit Stones.

The market price of a single Low-Grade Spirit Stone was around ten million federal credits, and they were often in short supply, making them difficult to purchase.

After all, those who possessed Spirit Stones generally did not lack money.

At the same time, many treasures useful to Martial Artists at the Mana Realm and above could not be purchased with federal credits; they could only be bought with Spirit Stones.

Therefore, although the market price of a Low-Grade Spirit Stone was ten million federal credits, in reality, it often required fifteen to twenty million federal credits to purchase one, and the quantity one could buy was limited.

A single Top-Grade Spirit Stone was equivalent to one million Low-Grade Spirit Stones, which, when converted to federal credits, amounted to over ten trillion.

A Soul Crystal is a special crystal containing pure Soul Power.

Cultivators could absorb the pure Soul Power within a Soul Stone to strengthen their Soul and enhance their Soul's control over Mental Energy.

At the same time, the pure Soul Power within the Soul Stone could also be integrated into one's Divine Sense, strengthening and enhancing its power.

Although the price of a Soul Stone was not as high as that of a Top-Grade Spirit Stone, they were quite rare on Blue Star; without special channels or opportunities, one could not buy them even with money.

Yet, with a casual wave of his hand, Su Ze gifted Yang Juncheng a Top-Grade Spirit Stone and a Soul Stone.

From this, it was evident that Su Ze was a true wealthy benefactor who possessed many treasures.

At the same time, it also showed that Su Ze liked and valued Yang Juncheng greatly; otherwise, he would not have been so generous.

After all, no matter how many treasures Su Ze possessed, he wouldn't just give them away casually!

After thanking Su Ze, Yang Juncheng began to circulate the Flame Technique, putting all his effort into converting the Protective Aura within his body into mana.

During this process, streams of pure Spiritual Qi were released from the Top-Grade Spirit Stone, entering Yang Juncheng's body to assist him in converting his Protective Aura into mana.

By the time all the Protective Aura in Yang Juncheng's body had been converted into mana, only a tiny fraction of the Spiritual Qi in the Top-Grade Spirit Stone had been consumed—less than one percent.

At this point, Yang Juncheng stopped absorbing Spiritual Qi from the Top-Grade Spirit Stone and stored it in his spatial ring. He then began to circulate the Spirit Refining Art to absorb and refine the pure Soul Power within the Soul Stone.

As streams of pure Soul Power were absorbed and refined by Yang Juncheng, his Soul strength increased greatly, and his control over Mental Energy skyrocketed.

Afterward, under the control of his Soul, Yang Juncheng's Mental Energy began to gradually condense into Divine Sense.

When all of Yang Juncheng's Mental Energy had gathered and condensed into Divine Sense, the remaining Soul Power in the Soul Stone was refined by Yang Juncheng and integrated into his Divine Sense, causing it to surge significantly.

With this, Yang Juncheng officially Advanced to a Mana Realm Martial Artist.

"Ding! Detected that the host has cultivated to the Mana Realm. The second Seal has been lifted. The host has obtained the Thousand-fold Amplification Talent!"

At this moment, a crisp, mechanical prompt sounded within Yang Juncheng's Sea of Consciousness.

An invisible force entered Yang Juncheng's body and began to frantically reshape it.

When the invisible force receded, an attribute panel appeared in Yang Juncheng's field of vision.

"Host: Yang Juncheng."

"Cultivation: Early Mana Realm."

"Talent: Billion-fold Amplification Talent (Thousand-fold Amplification; the third Seal can be lifted at the Golden Core Realm to obtain Ten Thousand Times Amplification!)"

"The Golden Core Realm and the Mana Realm are only separated by three minor Realms: the Yin-Yang Realm, the Heaven-Human Realm, and the Unity Realm. It shouldn't be too difficult to break through!"

"With the assistance of the Thousand-fold Amplification Talent, it won't be long before I can condense a Golden Core, advance to the Golden Core Realm, and unlock the Ten Thousand Times Amplification Talent!"

Upon hearing the crisp prompt and seeing the information on the panel before him, Yang Juncheng muttered to himself.

"Little Jun, congratulations on advancing to a Mana Realm Martial Artist and becoming a member of our Blue Star Federation's King Realm!"

"However, the Flame Technique you are cultivating is too low-level. It is time to switch to an Advanced Cultivation Technique!"

"Little Cao, take Little Jun to the Technique Pavilion and let him choose a suitable Cultivation Technique for himself!"

While Yang Juncheng was muttering, Su Ze, who was sitting on the main seat, flashed a gleam in his eyes and said with a smile.

"Yes, Master!"

Instructor Cao Jun, who was on the side, responded and then led Yang Juncheng out of the palace.

"Little Jun, your cultivation speed is simply too fast!"

"A little over a month ago, you were only at the Martial Apprentice Rank 4, and now you have already surpassed me, a Grandmaster at the Peak, and become a Mana Realm Martial Artist!"

"Your cultivation speed is like a rocket, shooting straight up—it makes people envious and jealous!"

"I, your Master, must also work hard and reach the Mana Realm soon!"

"Otherwise, when school starts, it would be embarrassing if you, my disciple, are a Mana Realm Martial Artist, while I, your Master, am only a Grandmaster at the Peak!"

After leaving the palace, Instructor Cao Jun sighed to Yang Juncheng with a speechless expression.

"Master, I am a peerless Prodigy. Isn't it normal for my progress to be fast?"

Yang Juncheng smiled slightly and said.

"Hmm, you are a peerless Prodigy, different from others; otherwise, your Grandmaster wouldn't be so generous!"

"I only hope that your progress speed can be maintained so that you can become a peerless powerhouse of our Blue Star Federation!"

"At that time, with your and Master's protection, I can just lay flat and relax!"

Instructor Cao Jun said somewhat helplessly.

As they spoke, Instructor Cao Jun led Yang Juncheng to the vicinity of the palace, arriving beside a nine-story wooden tower covered by a spiritual light barrier.

"Open Sesame!"

At this moment, Instructor Cao Jun took a token from his spatial ring and directed it at the nine-story wooden tower.

Immediately after, a beam of light shot out from the token and merged into the nine-story wooden tower.

A portal over a zhang wide and over two meters high appeared on the spiritual light barrier.

"The Technique Pavilion contains tens of thousands of Cultivation Techniques collected by your Grandmaster. Among them, over a dozen can be cultivated directly to the Nascent Soul Peak, and one can be cultivated to the Primordial Spirit Realm."

"After you enter the Technique Pavilion, you can freely choose a Cultivation Technique that suits you!"

"I will give you one piece of advice: do not be greedy, for what suits you is the most important!"

"Alright, I won't waste any more breath; go on in!"

"There is no time limit for choosing a Cultivation Technique; you can take your time, no need to rush!"

Instructor Cao Jun put away the token, pointed at the portal on the spiritual light barrier, and instructed Yang Juncheng.

"Alright, Master!"

Yang Juncheng replied softly and walked quickly toward the portal on the spiritual light barrier.

After Yang Juncheng passed through the portal on the spiritual light barrier, it automatically closed.

Yang Juncheng did not pay attention to the portal that had closed behind him and instead walked straight into the nine-story tower.

"With so many Cultivation Techniques and manuals, if I don't read them all and memorize them all, it would be a bit of a disservice to my Thousand-fold Amplification Talent!"

Looking at the rows of bookshelves in the first-floor hall of the nine-story tower, as well as the dazzling array of various Cultivation Techniques and manuals on them, a gleam flashed in Yang Juncheng's eyes as he muttered softly.

After muttering, Yang Juncheng couldn't wait to walk toward a row of bookshelves.
