Chapter 694 - 292: Tier 4 Telekinesis
Receiving a definite answer from Elder Yang, Chu Lingguang inwardly breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as Elder Yang didn’t make things difficult for Guo Wei, he would be safe for the time being within the Profound Celestial Sect.
"You’re to become a disciple under Elder Yang."
When Zhou Changqing came looking for Guo Wei, Guo Wei was completely surprised.
He had originally been living in the same courtyard as Chu Lingguang, but today, Zhou Changqing had arranged for him to move into the courtyard that had previously belonged to Chen Liang.
As an Outer Disciple at the seventh level of Qi Refining who had received preferential treatment, Chen Liang’s courtyard was far more luxurious than Chu Lingguang and Guo Wei’s, and the Spiritual Qi was much richer.
Guo Wei was overwhelmed by the unexpected favor when he moved in.
’It seems Chen Liang won’t be coming back.’
’This is an opportunity for me and Lin Guang.’
Guo Wei muttered to himself.
He had no idea that Chen Liang was already dead at Chu Lingguang’s hands. He simply assumed that Chu Lingguang had received special treatment from the sect. He thought the Profound Celestial Sect appreciated Chu Lingguang’s talent and had exiled Chen Liang to the secular world, with no intention of letting him return easily.
That was why the courtyard was vacant, allowing him to move in.
Elder Yang’s name was Yang Rong.
Chu Lingguang didn’t know how strong she was or how high her status was, only that even Zhou Changqing had to address her as Martial Aunt.
He sat by the stone table and began flipping through the Telekinesis Evolution Method.
Then, he began to practice it.
「Two days later.」
Chu Lingguang checked his status panel.
Favor Points: 1,200,333
Telekinesis Evolution Method (0/1,200,000)
(Remaining Lifespan: 799 years)
Chu Lingguang discovered that leaving the Qi Refining Art in the Great Yuan for countless True Martial Realm cultivators to practice was generating a daily return of Favor Points. Unconsciously, his Favor Points had grown again, now totaling 1,200,333.
The Telekinesis Evolution Method had also been successfully recorded on the panel.
He had expected this Magic Technique to be of a very high level. After all, even the Qi Manipulation Technique required six hundred thousand points to reach Perfection. It was only natural that this technique, personally taught by Elder Yang to enhance his Telekinesis, would require an even higher value.
Fortunately, his current amount of Favor Points was enough to raise the Telekinesis Evolution Method to Perfection all at once.
So, Chu Lingguang spent all 1.2 million Favor Points on the Telekinesis Evolution Method.
The panel’s values changed.
Favor Points: 333
Telekinesis Evolution Method (1,200,000/1,200,000)
(Remaining Lifespan: 799 years)
Chu Lingguang noticed his lifespan seemed to have hit a bottleneck.
Even though his cultivation had reached the sixth level of Qi Refining, and he had even managed to fuse his Telekinesis with Gold Spiritual Power, his lifespan hadn’t increased. It seemed it would only continue to grow once his cultivation broke through the Qi Refining realm and reached the Foundation Establishment stage.
Fortunately, time passed slowly. A little over a year had passed since his sea voyage from the Great Yuan.
Seeing that the Telekinesis Evolution Method was at Perfection, Chu Lingguang began to use this Magic Technique to raise the level of his Telekinesis.
With the boost from having the technique at Perfection, when Chu Lingguang cultivated his Telekinesis according to the prescribed method, he immediately achieved twice the results with half the effort.
He discovered that the growth of his Telekinesis was inextricably linked to his Star System Power. The strength of his Star System Power, in turn, depended on his own Spiritual Power. Finally, the growth of his Spiritual Power was related to the Spiritual Qi he absorbed and any cultivation supplements he received.
Everything was interlinked, one ring connected to the next, forming what seemed to be a complete cultivation system.
Before encountering the Telekinesis Evolution Method, Chu Lingguang had only a vague concept of how to upgrade his Telekinesis. The fact that he could open a Sea of Consciousness and possess Telekinesis far beyond that of an ordinary person was mainly thanks to a few related Cultivation Techniques he had obtained using Favor Points.
Skills like the "Primary Sea of Consciousness Power Evolution Method" or the "Primary Telekinesis Cultivation Method" had allowed him to unknowingly enhance his Sea of Consciousness Power, thereby strengthening his Telekinesis.
However, he himself lacked a clear understanding of Telekinesis.
It wasn’t until he entered the Profound Celestial Sect, read the Black Book, and obtained the Telekinesis Evolution Method that Chu Lingguang finally gained a clear understanding of how to enhance and store his Telekinesis.
And so, using the Telekinesis Evolution Method, he brought his Sea of Consciousness Power and Star System Power into perfect resonance.
His body began to absorb Spiritual Qi.
He converted the Spiritual Qi into Spiritual Power, then used the Spiritual Power to strengthen his Star System Power. He then brought his Sea of Consciousness Power into resonance with his Star System Power and finally harnessed that resonant energy to enhance his Telekinesis.
Although the process was convoluted, it was systematic.
His Telekinesis grew slowly, but Chu Lingguang could feel the tangible progress.
’According to the Black Book, third-tier Telekinesis can form a screen of light, like I did against Chen Liang. Fourth-tier Telekinesis, however, can make that screen tangible, capable of freezing an enemy’s Flying Sword in place.’
’The main reason I was able to kill Chen Liang, despite him being at a higher level, was because Steward Zhou used his Water Spiritual Power to help me evoke a response. That allowed me to create a resonant force between my Gold Spiritual Power and Telekinesis, letting me kill Chen Liang by surprise.’
’If my Telekinesis had reached the fourth tier, Chen Liang’s Flying Sword would have never been able to break through my defenses, even without the resonance between my Telekinesis and Gold Spiritual Power.’
’Unfortunately, while this Telekinesis Evolution Method provides a clear path, it’s a gradual, step-by-step process. I wonder if there’s a cultivation method in this world that can directly use Spiritual Qi to enhance Telekinesis.’
’Going through all these steps—first absorbing Spiritual Qi, then refining it into Spiritual Power, then infusing that Spiritual Power into the Star System, and finally using the resonance between the Sea of Consciousness and the Star System to enhance my Telekinesis—greatly reduces the speed of my progress.’
’At my current pace, it will probably take two months to advance my Telekinesis to the fourth tier.’
’And that’s with the skill’s value already at Perfection.’
Chu Lingguang thought to himself.
He read the Telekinesis Evolution Method over and over again, cultivating according to its instructions, but the process was just as tedious and complex as he had feared.
