Chapter 43: Breaking Through the Bottleneck (Third Update)

  "Fuse into 2nd-tier spiritual energy, 1. Use?"

  Just as Xu Yu was slightly dazed by the overly magnificent second-grade spiritual energy, a new idea suddenly emerged from his mind again. Receiving this idea, he suddenly came back to his senses.

  Is it used?

  When this ability first appeared on him, he was still cautious about using spiritual energy, but now he has roughly figured out the effects of that level, almost all of which are terrifying and feared by people.

  So, what special abilities does the current second-grade spiritual energy have?

  "Originally, nine portions of first-rate spiritual energy were needed to merge into one portion of second-rate spiritual energy. Although no consumption occurred during the merging process, in reality, 9 units of essence were already consumed when creating those nine portions of first-rate spiritual energy..."

  With a slight hesitation, Xu Yu pondered for a moment before tentatively issuing an order to merge with himself.

  This was just a probe, after all, he had already known that his own energy had reached its limit and could no longer continue to merge. It was also because of the new emergence of second-rate spiritual energy, which had an extremely obvious gap with first-rate spiritual energy. That's why he wanted to try it out, but unexpectedly, as soon as the thought flashed through his mind...

  The second-order spiritual energy disappeared in an instant, and at the same time, a strong pain suddenly burst out from his body.

  This pain was far from comparable to the slight numbness and tingling sensation when fusing with a first-rate spiritual energy. It was so intense that even Xǔ Yú, at this moment, had his veins bulging out in an instant, his face flushing red, and his hands clenched together with a loud "slap".

  But almost at the same time, a burst of air broke out from his body and suddenly rose up.

  The bottleneck in the early stage of cultivation was instantly shattered under the impact of the second-grade spiritual energy!

  This is the effect of high-level spiritual energy, breaking through the bottleneck!

  For example, Lin Yan, an ordinary warrior, has always lived in a world where spiritual energy is scarce. From the beginning of his cultivation, he has been relying on extremely thin spiritual energy, so he especially hopes to get some dense spiritual energy to help him break through. Otherwise, he wouldn't have had countless expectations after feeling fearful and grateful towards Xu Yu.

  Or rather, secondary spiritual energy is actually primary spiritual energy that has undergone a qualitative change when its concentration reaches a certain level, so its effects also have a strong upgrading effect.

  Take the simplest example, such as the jade pendant in Xuyu's hand. When he first merged with a high-level spiritual energy, almost every spiritual energy could withstand a bullet, but as he continued to merge, he would inevitably encounter the bottleneck of the jade pendant itself. Even if each fusion changed the quality of the jade pendant, it would eventually reach a point where it could no longer be transformed and could not accommodate more spiritual energy.

  But second-rate spiritual energy can directly break through that bottleneck and upgrade the grade of Yu Zhui.

  If it was said that previously, it could only be considered a rough draft of a magic treasure, then after reaching the bottleneck and continuing to merge with second-rate spiritual energy, it basically became comparable to a real low-quality magic treasure!!

  Under intense pain, Xu Yu endured for several minutes, accompanied by a burst of skeletal explosions in his body. The effect of the second-grade spiritual energy was finally perfectly merged with him, without any waste.

  The breakthrough aura emanating from his body also gradually dissipated.

  Just as Xie Yu hastily wiped away the beads of sweat dripping down his face, he suddenly discovered that his stamina had actually surpassed 27 and transformed into 28.

  Of course, this is mainly because of his impact on the bottle gourd. Otherwise, it would be equivalent to compressing and condensing nine portions of first-rate spiritual energy, producing a qualitative change effect of second-rate spiritual energy, which would not have only increased his vitality by 1 point.

  But in any case, Xu Yu's surprise at this time was simply impossible to conceal.

  "It turns out that 27 is not the limit, but a bottleneck. It seems that ninefold body can go even further, far beyond the limit... No wonder last time, Lin Zhongzhi's aura was so much stronger than mine..."

  An idea flashed through his mind, and Xuyu once again merged a strand of first-rate spiritual energy, tentatively fusing it into himself.

  Since he broke through the limit, it's unknown whether his body can still accommodate a first-rate spiritual energy. Otherwise, if he could only accommodate a second-rate one, it would be somewhat unattractive. To know that second-rate spiritual energies require him to consume 9 units of vital energy to nurture, and 9 units of vital energy directly require him to sleep for 24 hours to recover.

  After a tentative try, Xu Yu also immediately discovered that this new spiritual energy was also received by the body without any obstacles.

  "It can be used, and afterwards, the usual upgrade will only consume first-grade spiritual energy. Only when encountering a bottleneck will it be necessary to manufacture second-grade spiritual energy to break through."

  A surge of wild joy welled up in his eyes once again, and only then did Xǔ Yú manage to suppress the excitement in his heart. However, he began to ponder: if 27 wasn't the limit of human energy, how was it differentiated in this regard?

  Also, the martial skill that Lin Dongjie had displayed last time could also make his hands as hard as gold and iron. Many things made him very suspicious and he wanted to figure it out.

  However, wanting to figure these things out wasn't something he could just daydream about; it seemed like the only way to get an accurate answer was from the Lin family.

  After some thought, Xu Yu didn't rush anymore. The Lin family had invited him for the first time, and that time was cut short halfway through. It seemed that the second invitation wouldn't be too far away either.

  "It should be in these few days, wait until the Lin family comes, and then ask carefully again, it's not too late." After thinking again, Xu Yu finally put his mind at ease and started to fall asleep.

  After all, he had already consumed 5 units of energy, and this sleep would require him to sleep until almost noon the next day to wake up refreshed.

  And as it turned out, it was indeed just as he had expected. The next day at noon, a black Mercedes-Benz drove smoothly along the streets of the urban village and stopped in front of his residence.

  Then, a vigorous old man stepped down from the carriage and looked up with his eyes raised.

  "Dad, Mr. Xu lives on the seventh floor." Lin Zhongzhi, who had a plaster cast on one side of his body, also quickly arrived at Lin Yan's side and said.

  "Let Zhong go and try to probe once, it seems that he doesn't mind the last time Dongjie offended him. Hopefully this time, I can invite him." Standing quietly here, Lin Yan's heart was also stirred up with excitement. After all, before this, he had never really seen Xu Yu. Thinking that he would soon be able to see the legendary cultivator, and that the other party might have the ability to gather spiritual energy, which was related to whether he could break through his current cultivation bottleneck and extend his lifespan.

  How can he not be excited?

  So, after the incident subsided two days ago, and today being a weekend, Xǔ Yú was probably on holiday too. Lín Yán and his son hurried over here, but they didn't dare come too early to avoid disturbing Xǔ Yú's rest.

  But at this first meeting, Lin Yan did not expect that Xu Yu would directly offer him help. In his heart, as long as he could have a further friendly exchange with him, it was already the best thing that could happen.
