Chapter 1589: Chapter 50: Frenzied Advancement, Efficiency Soaring! (Part 2)
And the trait of being "unforgettable" now seems too ordinary to him.
No matter how much its grade is improved, its effect mainly allows him to excel in skills and achieve an unforgettable effect.
Continuing to enhance it is completely not worthwhile.
"So, it makes sense that Source Energy Points transform into Source Points after evolving! It allows me to actively invest Source Points to enhance the trait levels!" he nodded silently to himself.
This discovery is crucial for him.
Because the traits derived from various cultivation techniques have practical and non-practical differences for him.
Being able to actively invest Source Points to enhance the trait level means he no longer has to rely purely on luck and worry about randomness.
For important traits, those he values, investing Source Energy will raise their level.
"So, this indeed is a good thing! With the Source Points I’ve accumulated so far, I can quickly increase my strength significantly in a short time. But in doing so, the gap in Source Points will also widen."
Thinking of these various issues, he shook his head.
He couldn’t be bothered to think too much.
All he knows is that as his strength increases, it becomes increasingly easy for him to collect Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, and consequently, increasing Source Points becomes easier.
Moreover, a large amount of wealth and cultivation resources will continue to be delivered to his residence.
He composed himself and looked at the panel again.
With the new functionality, he would definitely explore and understand it clearly.
However, he considered that continuing to invest Source Points in being "unforgettable" is unwise.
The enhancement of "unforgettable" brings no substantial change.
His eyes swiftly scanned across the panel and instantly locked onto a trait.
[Do you want to consume 1 Source Point to enhance ’Outstanding Comprehension’ (Deep Green) level?]
Seeing the prompt before him, Jiang Ning’s gaze flickered slightly.
"Outstanding Comprehension..."
He pondered, thinking this trait is currently one of the most needed by him.
Whether it’s cultivating techniques, comprehending divine skills, or understanding the rules of heaven and earth, all of them require comprehension.
The higher the comprehension, the more efficient his cultivation.
This is extremely important to him.
"Consuming 1 Source Point to enhance the level of ’Outstanding Comprehension’ is worth it!"
The thought flashed through his mind, and he no longer hesitated.
The next moment, he felt a burst of clarity in his mind as if something was unlocked, and his thought processes became more efficient.
[Consume 1 Source Point, ’Outstanding Comprehension’ (Deep Green) → ’Outstanding Comprehension’ (Light Blue)]
[’Outstanding Comprehension’ (Light Blue)]: Exceptional wisdom, able to touch and understand.
Seeing the change on the panel, he nodded in satisfaction.
"Exceptional wisdom, able to touch and understand."
He could feel that compared to just now, his thinking had become more agile, and even his perception of the surroundings had become sharper.
Everything in the world now seemed much clearer to him.
"Very good!"
He rejoiced in his heart.
With this trait’s enhancement, his cultivation efficiency would correspondingly increase.
Thinking of this point.
He immediately closed his eyes and began to circulate the Black Dragon Swallowing Whale Technique.
Accompanied by the circulation of the robust power within his body, his Essence, Qi, and Spirit began to deplete.
A moment later.
[Black Dragon Swallowing Whale Technique Experience Value +158]
Seeing the first prompt appear, he immediately opened his eyes, his gaze bright, filled with intense joy.
"As expected!!"
"The enhancement of comprehension has increased the efficiency of my cultivation of the Black Dragon Swallowing Whale Technique!"
He thought to himself and turned his eyes back to the panel.
"In that case, let’s continue!!"
At this moment, he felt a surge of excitement.
The improvement in efficiency has a profound impact on him.
A faster breakthrough means his strength will increase more rapidly.
Thus, he could more quickly enter the Unity Realm Great Success.
[Do you want to consume 2 Source Points to enhance ’Outstanding Comprehension’ (Light Blue) level?]
Seeing the increased consumption, he couldn’t help but frown slightly.
Source Points, which would equate to twenty thousand points from the previous Source Energy Points.
The second breakthrough of the Black Dragon Swallowing Whale Technique required just that.
However, the breakthrough of such a supreme cultivation technique like the Black Dragon Swallowing Whale Technique doesn’t just bring about derived traits.
The crucial thing is that after the technique breaks its limits, the increase in his strength is quite significant.
For example, the second breakthrough of the Black Dragon Swallowing Whale Technique enhanced his physique and strength by about twenty-five percent.
In comparison, simply enhancing trait levels clearly lacks cost-effectiveness.
Then, he turned his gaze to the Source Points section.
[Source Points]: 102.5
"The reserves are still sufficient, and the enhancement of comprehension can impact the efficiency of my cultivation in all dimensions. Such an investment is not a loss!"
This passed through his mind, and he no longer hesitated.
The next moment.
He felt a cool sensation in his mind again, and the feeling of enhancement resurfaced more strongly.
[Consume 2 Source Points, ’Outstanding Comprehension’ (Light Blue) → ’Outstanding Comprehension’ (Dark Blue)]
[’Outstanding Comprehension’ (Dark Blue)]: Extraordinary comprehension, one in ten thousand.
"The description changed again!" he noted, his gaze slightly focused.
"Then let’s test the cultivation efficiency of the Black Dragon Swallowing Whale Technique again!" another thought flashed through his mind.
He immediately closed his eyes and began to circulate the Black Dragon Swallowing Whale Technique.
A moment later
[Black Dragon Swallowing Whale Technique Experience Value +177]
"There’s an increase!!"
Seeing the prompt appear, he suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze becoming even brighter.
Compared to before, the cultivation efficiency increased by nearly thirty percent.
This means that merely counting the Black Dragon Swallowing Whale Technique, he can save thirty percent of the time in future practice due to enhanced comprehension.
"Since that’s the case, then let’s continue!!" his emotions surged, full of motivation.
As the saying goes, sharpening the axe does not delay the task of cutting wood.
Now, by consuming some of the accumulated Source Points, he improved his cultivation practice efficiency, a worthwhile investment in his view.
It was definitely worth it.
[Do you want to consume 10 Source Points to enhance ’Outstanding Comprehension’ (Dark Blue) level?]
"The consumption increased again!"
Looking at the prompt that appeared before him, his gaze darkened.
Source Points, which equals one-tenth of his accumulation.
"Is it worth it?" The question sprang up in his heart immediately.
"Worth it!!" His gaze became firm.
Then, his thoughts suddenly stirred.
The familiar sensation surged in his heart once again.
Compared to the previous two times, this time it was even stronger.
[Consume 10 Source Points, ’Outstanding Comprehension’ (Dark Blue) → ’Outstanding Comprehension’ (Light Purple)]
[’Outstanding Comprehension’ (Light Purple)]: Extraordinary comprehension, one in a million.
"The description changed again!" he noted to himself.
But also felt a twinge of heartache.
Source Points, that’s one-tenth of his accumulation.
"Let’s test again and see how much efficiency has increased!" a thought flashed through his mind, and he once more circulated the Black Dragon Swallowing Whale Technique.
A moment later
[Black Dragon Swallowing Whale Technique Experience Value +203]
"Not bad!!" Seeing the tangible improvement in efficiency, he no longer felt the heartache.
Although the consumption and investment were considerable, the feedback did not disappoint him at all.
Due to the three successive breakthroughs, the efficiency improvement was too apparent for him.
With the support of such a trait, he felt that the breakthroughs of the Black Dragon Swallowing Whale Technique could at least save him nearly two days of time.
"And this is not my limit!!"
Looking at the panel, he clenched his fists.
[Do you want to consume 20 Source Points to enhance ’Outstanding Comprehension’ (Light Purple) level?]
"Indeed, now this is 20 Source Points of consumption, which equals a quarter of my reserves."
Then, he glanced again at the Source Points section.
[Source Points]: 90.5
In less than two hours, he had consumed more than ten Source Points.
Moreover, if he continues, the upcoming consumption will be the real bulk.
Twenty Source Points investment would directly bring his reserves down to the seventy range.
"But in doing so, my cultivation practice efficiency will be comprehensively strengthened and improved."
Various thoughts intertwined in his mind.
Since discovering the miraculous nature of evolved Source Points, he realized that such consumption is indispensable.
Although investing Source Points in trait level enhancements may not seem cost-effective, this is a direction he can choose.
Practicality often outweighs the effects of higher-grade traits.
For instance, the enhancement of the comprehension level has increased the efficiency of his cultivation of the Black Dragon Swallowing Whale Technique nearly twofold.
This effect is irreplaceable by any other trait.
