Chapter 278: Collective Retreat (Part 2)
In the blink of an eye, three months have passed. The members of the general-level Demon Hunting Group No. 21 came out of seclusion one after another, and their spiritual power reached a completely new level.
After three months of seclusion, Cai'er's inner spiritual power has increased to 3850, Han Yu has 3670, and Sima Xian relies on the advantage of 80 innate inner spiritual power. The improvement was huge, reaching as much as 3,500. Wang Yuanyuan was slightly taller than Sima Xian, at three thousand five hundred and sixty. Lin Xin was 3,660, and Chen Yinger was promoted to 3,320. Everyone in the team has reached level 5 or above.
However, in three months, Long Haochen still failed to break through to the sixth level and was still hovering at the peak of the fifth level.
Of course it’s not because he didn’t work hard, it’s actually because his energy was dispersed during these three months. Whenever Long Haochen enters the state of cultivation, the memories he received in the Tower of Eternity will naturally appear in his mind, actually forcing him to understand them. He can't do it even if he doesn't understand it. If he doesn't understand it, he won't be able to calm down and practice.
Of course Long Haochen was unwilling to learn necromancy magic, so during the first month of seclusion, he almost entirely struggled with his memory.
In the end, he gave in, because if he didn't understand these necromancy magics, he wouldn't be able to practice at all, let alone break through the bottleneck. Breaking through the bottleneck requires full concentration. With this memory causing trouble, how could he concentrate?
In desperation, Long Haochen could only reluctantly accept the reality. Fortunately, the Tower of Eternity does not force his memory too hard. As long as he understands a skill or some secrets, these memories will not appear for a while. It seems that it means to let him integrate what he has learned. Long Haochen never thought that one day his memory would become a strict teacher. But what can he do? If you can't resist, you can only accept it.
In the second month, he could patiently attack the bottleneck. However, the difficulty of reaching the sixth level from the fifth level was really astonishing. In the Holy Spirit Furnace, it felt like the spiritual orifice had been formed, but it was always difficult. One step forward. Long Haochen could only keep accumulating, impacting, accumulating, and impacting again. But this bottleneck has still not been successfully broken through.
By the third month, the spiritual aperture had not yet formed, but Long Haochen's Holy Spiritual Furnace seemed to be evolving. This caused chaos in his body for a period of time. In the end, the Holy Spiritual Furnace was only one step away from evolution. It was obvious that he needed to break through the sixth level to finally complete it.
It can be said that the past few months have been very difficult for Long Haochen, but it is not without benefits. His cultivation speed is indeed extremely fast, but because of this, it was originally a little unstable. After these three months of retreat, my spiritual power has completely stabilized, my spiritual power has become thicker, and the various abilities in my body have also been adjusted in place.
It’s not that you can’t continue to improve when your cultivation reaches a bottleneck, but if you don’t break through the bottleneck, the spiritual power gained through cultivation will escape on its own. But this is not the case for Long Haochen. He can't absorb it himself, but it doesn't mean that the light element elves and the blue rain and light hibiscus in his body can't absorb it either! Therefore, these three months are considered cheap for them. However, it is obvious that neither of them can evolve again in a short while.
Long Haochen was practicing, and Haoyue was in a deep sleep. It had eaten a lot of magic crystals, and it had been unable to digest and absorb them before. Now that it had time to rest, it naturally had time to improve.
However, at this time, their retreat had to end. Urgent news came from the Demon Hunting Group's mission tower, forcing a war mission. It is ordered that all demon hunting groups staying in the Holy City must participate compulsorily. If you do not participate, the general level demon hunting group will be deducted 10,000 merit points from each person as punishment. The higher the level of the demon hunting group, the more merits will be deducted.
Such urgent war missions rarely occur. The mission tower will only issue such missions when the alliance encounters a great crisis. But it is also extremely compulsory, and the price to pay for not participating is quite huge.
Although Long Haochen and the others have enough fines now, they will have to lose 60,000 meritorious deeds! Although they don't include the retinue knight Han Yu, this is something they are never willing to bear.
After discussing with his partners, Long Haochen went to the mission tower to accept the mission. The mission tower gave the entire demon hunting group three days to rest. The specific content and details of the mission have not been announced.
All seven members of the General Level 21 Demon Hunting Group gathered in the villa hall.
Sima Xian said with a sinister smile on his face: "The war mission is good. I have just improved a lot in my cultivation. I just want to take it out on the little devils." As he said this, he also made a muscle-flexing movement.
Long Haochen said: "Everyone is here, let's set off. Lin Xin, what is the total number of our merits so far?" Lin Xin did not need to check at all, and said directly: "There are still twenty-six Four thousand eight hundred and twenty-three. I sold some of the useless magic crystals and demon corpses we brought back last time, so I gained some more merit.”
Long Haochen nodded and said: "Okay, let's go to the trading center. We are about to carry out an emergency war mission. I'm afraid the danger this time is not much worse than the mission in the Horrible Howling Cave. You don't need to save money, we just need to stay It is enough to reserve 100,000 merit points for upgrading the level of the Demon Hunting Group. Try to spend all the other 160,000 merit points today after arriving at the trading center, and go to see the equipment you need, only for those with a level above Brilliant. Report it to Lin Xin immediately, no need to notify me, just buy it directly. Lin Xin, you are responsible for ensuring that everyone can at least add one piece of brilliant-level equipment. You must not save at this time, you have to buy it yourself, understand. Are you done?"
"Yes, leader." The other five people except Cai'er said loudly at the same time. Who wouldn’t want to buy powerful equipment? One hundred and sixty thousand merit points, even for brilliant-level equipment, is enough to buy a dozen fine items. This is the benefit of having merit.
After accepting the mission, Long Haochen immediately decided that buying equipment was obviously the most correct choice. It was obvious that it was not just their demon hunting team that needed equipment, but other teams would also be facing challenges soon. Enhance your own strength during missions. The earlier you go, the more likely you will be able to choose the one that suits you better.
While walking towards the trading center, Long Haochen asked Lin Xin: "How is the storage situation of the elixirs?"
Lin Xin chuckled and said: "It is very sufficient. There are forty-two Great Spiritual Pills. There are twenty-five bloodthirsty pills and explosive pills. There are also two pills that I made first. One is the powerful pill, and the other one is very powerful. I made it with the big devil magic crystal as the main raw material. The Conjoined Spirit Enhancement Pill can instantly connect the spiritual powers of those who take them, and in the process of mutual injection of spiritual powers, they can quickly transform into the attributes of the person who releases the spiritual power, just like a company of great demon cavalry. The effect of the combined attack technique only lasts for thirty seconds, and it takes too much material. I can only make two sets of seven, which can be used twice. With our current strength, seven. The combined power of two conjoined people has more than 20,000 spiritual powers, so they can compete with an eighth-level powerhouse."
Long Haochen said doubtfully: "However, after using this conjoined spirit enhancement pill, What if the person who finally releases his spiritual power cannot withstand the impact of the huge spiritual power?”
Lin Xin said proudly: "I have already thought about this. Even the demon clan can't solve the problem, but I can solve it with pills. This involves combined medication. The person responsible for releasing spiritual power is in While taking the Conjoined Spirit Enhancement Pill, I also need to take another Powerful Pill to greatly enhance my body's strength, and my ability to withstand the impact of spiritual power will naturally become much stronger. Moreover, my Conjoined Spirit Enhancement Pill will become much stronger. It's not like we all gather the spiritual power of the seven of us into one person. The person responsible for releasing the skills can decide how much to receive based on his own physical condition. For example, with your ability, boss, after taking my powerful pill, The endurance can reach at least 10,000 spiritual powers. I'm talking nonsense about the eighth level, but it's not a big problem to fight against the seventh level."
Looking at his proud look, Long Haochen said. He couldn't help but laugh, "It seems that your narcissism is justified. Although I don't want to praise you, I have to say that you are really a genius."
"Wow, haha, of course. ." As expected, some people suddenly felt a little complacent after receiving praise.
Sima Xiannuo teased: "Brother Youyao, pay attention to your appearance, Li Xin is here."
"Ah? Where is it, where is it?" Lin Xin instantly restrained himself, and his arrogant look before suddenly became well-behaved. ,honest. He looked around suspiciously, looking for Li Xin.
Speaking of which, the relationship between Lin Xin and Li Xin has been settled over the past few months. Although the two of them are in seclusion, they don't have much time to see each other. But Lin Xin relied on the powerful stalking skills of Shameless on the left and Erpilian on the right to finally get Li Xin to admit their identities. However, this also added another symptom to Lin Xin, strong hemp control! When he saw Li Xin, he was like a mouse seeing a cat. He didn't know if it was because of the sequelae of being forcibly kissed by Li Xin. But what is certain is that he was really kind to Li Xin and secretly gave Li Xin a lot of pills. But Li Xin was unwilling to take advantage of him and gave him corresponding merit every time.
"Holy shit! Bald man, you dare to lie to me, be careful if I give you fake medicine next time." Lin Xin didn't find Li Xin and shouted angrily to Sima Xian.
Sima Xian chuckled and said: "Whatever, hey, I heard Li Xin say that she hates people who don't care about the overall situation. She likes people like our group leader who are kind-hearted, bright-hearted, and A promising young man who is good to others.”
