Chapter 142: Third-Rate Top-Level Energy Cultivation Secret Technique!

Chapter 142: Third-Rate Top-Level Energy Cultivation Secret Technique!

TL: Etude

Ye Tian entered the advanced cultivation chamber, drank a sip of king-level ferocious beast blood, and began practicing the Purple Blood Body Refining Technique. Boom! A far greater amount of heavenly and earthly energy surged into his body than ever before, which could be timely refined into energy to assist Ye Tian in impacting his acupoints.

A day passed.

Ye Tian sensed his progress and said, "My cultivation speed has tripled. At my current pace, I can open up 45 acupoints in a month."

Such a cultivation speed was heaven defying. If he were to cultivate in a top-level cultivation chamber, his speed could increase even more. But for now, Ye Tian was quite satisfied with this pace.

"My cultivation level is still too low. I'll focus on cultivating and improving my level during this period," Ye Tian decided.

Days went by, and Ye Tian opened one acupoint after another in the advanced cultivation room, his bodily strength soaring at an incredible rate. This rapid increase in strength felt exhilarating, like being enlightened!

Finally, after a month, Ye Tian opened another 45 acupoints, adding to the 25 he had previously opened, bringing his total to 63 acupoints. His physical strength had nearly reached 1800 elephant strength units, and his maximum attack power reached 1,296,000 elephants, equivalent to 1.3 dragon power!

"My attack power has finally entered the threshold of dragon strength. Although it's still far from the Battle Axe Emperor's record of 8.2 dragon power, it's not too far off!" Ye Tian was quite pleased with this.

With his talent copying ability ready to be used again, Ye Tian planned to visit the vicinity of the Battle Axe Mercenary Hall headquarters. If he encountered the Battle Axe Emperor, that would be a huge gain.

Thus, Ye Tian set out, heading straight for the headquarters of the Battle Axe Mercenary Hall.

...

The headquarters of the Battle Axe Mercenary Hall covered an area of about a hundred miles, with a large number of king-level individuals coming and going, and occasionally, even saint-level figures appeared.

Ye Tian had been there for about three hours, but couldn't even enter the main gate of the Battle Axe Mercenary Hall headquarters. He learned that the headquarters was not open to ordinary people; only core members of the Battle Axe Mercenary Hall and mercenaries of silver rank and above could enter.

Since he wasn't even a mercenary, Ye Tian thought, "I might as well register as a mercenary. Most people from the Zhonghai Super Base have registered, and I'll have to do so sooner or later."

The registration for mercenaries wasn't at the headquarters but at various branches. Ye Tian returned to the Battle Axe Mercenary Hall branch in Jinghu District, registered as a mercenary, and quickly obtained a black iron-level mercenary card.

Mercenary ranks were divided into black iron, bronze, silver, and gold levels, each with one to nine stars. Ye Tian was currently a one-star black iron-level mercenary, the lowest rank. To raise his mercenary level, he had to take on missions. Some missions required a certain mercenary level, while others only required certain cultivation levels or strengths.

Although Ye Tian was just a one-star black iron mercenary, his cultivation had reached the king level, allowing him access to quite a few substantial missions. Constant hard cultivation wasn't good either, as it could lead to mental strain. Ye Tian decided to look for a mission to take on, hoping to copy some impressive talents in the process.

There were many types of missions, including setting up arrays, hunting ferocious beasts, exploring maps, and even entering the other side of spatial rifts.

The mission to enter the other side of a spatial rift offered exceptionally high rewards and a substantial amount of points due to its extreme danger. Ye Tian learned a bit about a 5-star level spatial rift: "It's located 700,000 kilometers southwest of the Zhonghai Super Base. Although it can't be sealed, it was forcibly suppressed by the powerful individuals of the Super Base. There was a temporary suppression of the other side, but the two sides have been battling across the rift for a hundred years. Sometimes humans invade the other side of the rift, and sometimes they are counterattacked. Currently, humans have once again entered the rift, but control only about 10,000 kilometers inside it, and beyond that, nothing is known."

This was all the information Ye Tian had. The so-called exploration missions involved venturing beyond the 10,000-kilometer mark to gather important information, which was obviously very dangerous. Ye Tian, still unfamiliar with the Zhonghai Super Base, naturally wouldn't take on such a mission.

Suddenly, a particular mission caught Ye Tian's attention:

[Assistance in subduing a fierce beast.

Mission issuer: Holy Maiden Xiyue of the Moon God Sect.

Requirements: King-ranked powerhouses with high-level beast control talents.

Rewards: A choice between a third-rate top-level energy cultivation secret technique or the use of a top-level cultivation room, or payment in equivalent monetary value.]

"Third-rate top-level energy cultivation secret technique!" Ye Tian admitted he was tempted. He was currently practicing an advanced energy body refining secret technique. In the Zhonghai Super Base, such a technique was quite common, used by many warriors at the start of their cultivation journey. King-ranked powerhouses often cultivated top-level energy cultivation techniques.

However, independent cultivators found it difficult to access these top-tier techniques as they relied on equivalent exchanges, and even if the higher-ups possessed them, they were not easily traded without something of equivalent value. In other top forces, core members practiced these top-level techniques, which were not available for trade or teaching.

Ye Tian was in an awkward position where he couldn't obtain a top-level energy cultivation technique and couldn't afford to trade for one, nor did he want to join any other top forces. But now, an opportunity had arisen. Not just any top-level energy cultivation technique, but a third-rate one, which was not just ordinary!

The Zhonghai Super Base further categorized top-level energy cultivation techniques into five levels, from fifth-rate to first-rate. A third-rate technique could potentially triple his cultivation speed, a boost equivalent to enhancing one's talent by a whole level.

"I must obtain it," Ye Tian resolved, clenching his fist. He knew that such rich rewards meant the mission was very dangerous, but he was qualified for it. He was on the King-ranked list and possessed high-level beast control talent, meeting the mission's requirements.

"The Moon God Sect Saintess probably wants to subdue a fierce beast but lacks the necessary talent. What kind of fierce beast is it that requires such a high price to subdue?" Ye Tian wondered, intrigued by the potential of copying the beast's extraordinary talents. And the Moon God Sect Saintess herself might also possess impressive talents.

"Accepted," Ye Tian decided.
