Chapter 205 Low-cost and rapid improvement method
Half a month later.
On the top floor of the Dragon Skeleton Tower, next to the element pool.
Sunan glanced at the one hundred engraved gems lying in the space ring, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
So many engraved gems should be enough to deal with the thunder element giant.
After calming down, Sunan opened the space channel and stepped into it.
After a flash, he had entered the thunder element space.
What came into view was the gloomy clouds, occupying every inch of the vision.
Lightning and thunder rushed in the clouds, accompanied by a loud rumble from time to time, and the thick and dazzling lightning tore through the clouds, giving people a sense of wildness.
"Is there no thunder element space on land?"
There were also clouds under his feet. Fortunately, Sunan had released the levitation technique before coming in, so he did not fall down unexpectedly.
He reopened the space channel without saying a word and retreated.
Like this element space with clouds everywhere and limited vision, there are too many variables in fighting, which is not the best choice.
Anyway, he could change the entry point infinitely, and the cost was just some gems, which Sunan could afford.
In the following few entries, the elemental space was either in a bad environment or the concentration of energy particles was too high, so Sunan gave up decisively.
Until the fifth time, he finally came to an elemental space similar to the last time.
After applying an [elemental energy protection] to himself and activating the [forbidden zone], Sunan flew towards the depths of the elemental space.
The target was the elemental giant spirit, which usually only appeared in the depths of the elemental space.
Sunan did not stop along the way, and ignored the elemental spirit that wanted to attack him, and quickly got rid of it with his speed.
As he went deeper, the concentration of energy particles in the air became more and more concentrated.
At this moment, Sunan's expression suddenly moved, and he looked to the right front, and saw a creature more than ten meters tall, in a vague human shape, with fine arcs flashing all over his body, rushing towards this side at a high speed.
"Elemental giant spirit!"
Sunan was not surprised but happy.
Finally found the target.
Without hesitation, Sunan raised his hand and threw out an engraved gem.
Considering that lightning energy particles cannot harm the thunder element giant, and may even become a supplement for the thunder element giant, Sunan's latest batch of engraved gems did not have a single [Thunder Explosion], but all [Blazing Flame], [Ice Cold], [Netherworld], [Strong Wind], etc.
As the engraved gems burst into dazzling light, an extremely cold feeling instantly broke out and fell on the thunder element giant.
In an instant, the surface of the thunder element giant was covered with a layer of snow-white frost, so that the fine arcs flashing on its body disappeared a lot.
Taking advantage of the thunder element giant's body being sluggish, Sunan threw out two more [Blazing Flame] and [Strong Wind] engraved gems, turning into flames and strong winds to submerge the thunder element giant, and at the same time, liquid metal gushed out, and in an instant it turned into a majestic silver giant, rushing towards the opponent with unparalleled power.
First, he was caught off guard by the engraved gem, and before he could catch his breath, he was hit on the head by a punch from the silver giant.
The virtual form of the thunder element giant can be immune to all physical attacks, but it cannot be immune to the liquid metal containing elemental energy, and was directly hit by the oncoming giant fist and staggered.
The thunder element giant was extremely irritable, and he suffered a great loss when he was caught off guard. He was furious and roared and punched the silver giant.
Both the thunder element giant and Su Nan were wizard-level existences, but their fighting methods were extremely primitive and barbaric.
The two fought against each other with strength and attacked with strength. Although they were both bare-handed, the momentum was like two iron-clad bronze men weighing more than a thousand pounds colliding with each other, making a deafening roar.
The energy brilliance and violent air waves visible to the naked eye rolled in all directions with the two as the center, stirring up the void and twisting it.
The ground under his feet continued to crack and decompose, and a huge pit appeared in the blink of an eye.
After a short confrontation, Sunan had a clear idea in his mind.
Perhaps because he had not really entered the core area of the elemental space, the strength of the thunder element giant in front of him was not outstanding among his peers. At most, it was equivalent to the level of a newly promoted first-level gasification wizard.
However, with the blessing of the home court, the combat power was strengthened to a level close to that of a first-level liquefied wizard.
Fortunately, this was not beyond his ability to deal with.
After finding out the strength of the opponent, Sunan no longer held back. While controlling the silver giant to attack fiercely, he threw out the engraved gems without hesitation.
With the improvement of the mental concentration, the number of engraved gems synthesized has increased to 22, and the power is about four times that of ordinary rune engravings.
Even a formal wizard dare not underestimate this power.
As more than ten engraved gems were thrown out in succession, the thunder element giant was immediately stunned.
The swift flames, winds and shadows rolled over one after another. In just four or five breaths, the dazzling electric light on the Thunder Element Giant's body dimmed visibly, and its sturdy body shrunk by nearly half.
Sunan took the opportunity to roll forward, and his attack became more and more fierce.
More than ten minutes later, accompanied by an unwilling roar, the Thunder Element Giant's body shattered, turned into countless light points and dissipated in the air, leaving only an irregular blue crystal the size of an egg falling to the ground.
Sunan passed out of the silver giant's body and caught the crystal quickly.
Looking at the beautiful blue crystal in his palm like a gem, he showed a happy smile on his face.
Element crystal core.
A crystal that condenses rich elemental energy, which is considered a higher-level material of elemental crystal dust.
Only elemental creatures above the level of Elemental Giant Spirit have elemental crystal cores in their bodies.
But this is not the reason for Su Nan's joy. What makes him happier is the divine energy contained in the elemental crystal core.
After putting the elemental crystal core into the magic cube, Su Nan quickly got detailed information.
"6 standard units of divine energy, a little less."
Spider elves have 8 standard units of divine energy in their bodies, while elemental giants have even less.
But after thinking about it, Su Nan was relieved.
Spider elves are creatures created entirely by divine energy, while elemental giants are a combination of elemental energy and divine energy, and elemental energy accounts for the majority, so it is normal for the divine energy in the body to be less.
"It should be enough to increase the mental concentration by about 0.4%."
Before, this amount of divine energy could at least increase the mental concentration by 0.5% to 0.6%, but as the mental concentration increases, the difficulty of improvement also rises.
Sunan estimated that by the first liquefaction stage, the divine energy required to increase the mental concentration by 1% might soar to 50 or 60 standard units.
However, at least at this stage, the benefits brought to him by an elemental crystal core are still very obvious.
After a battle, a total of 18 imprinted gems were used.
Sunan estimated that the current cost of an imprinted gem is about 5,800 gold coins, and 18 are just over 100,000 gold coins.
100,000 gold coins in exchange for about 0.4% mental concentration, this deal is generally worthwhile.
The elemental space is full of energy, and Sunan quickly restores his mental power to its peak state and continues hunting.
Without the intention of going deeper into the core area, he directly circled around the edge of the core area to search for the traces of the thunder element giant.
Not long after, Sunan found the target.
This time, without waiting for the thunder element giant to launch an attack, he took the initiative to rush up.
The battle broke out again.
Two days later.
When Sunan returned to the Dragon Skeleton Tower, there were already three more elemental crystal cores in the space ring.
The price was the loss of more than fifty imprinted gems.
Beside the element pool, Sunan sat cross-legged on the ground and began to absorb the divine energy in the element crystal core.
Naturally generated divine creatures like the elemental giants have very pure divine energy in their bodies, without any religious pollution, and can be directly absorbed and synthesized.
When all three element crystal cores were turned into powder, Sunan's spiritual concentration also increased to 76.06%.
Looking at the data on the panel, Sunan was extremely happy.
At this rate, he will soon be able to break through to the first level of liquefaction.
The only problem is that this way of improvement consumes imprinted gems very much.
To break through to the first level of liquefaction, at least 6 million gold coins must be invested in imprinted gems.
Although the annual income of the Star Alliance has exceeded 10 million gold coins, in fact, money is needed in many places.
Refining secret puppets, making crystal soul potions, making wizard tools, and the biggest one is the construction of wizard towers.
Drawing out 6 million gold coins at once is also a big burden on the cash flow of the Star Alliance.
"It would be great if there were other, lower-cost ways to hunt the Thunder Element Giant."
Su Nan thought secretly.
But he also knew that he was a little greedy.
Which first-level gasification wizard could hunt the Thunder Element Giant in the Thunder Element Space like him?
Without some trump cards and means, ordinary first-level gasification wizards would be blasted into charcoal and turned into ashes when facing the Thunder Element Giant in the Thunder Element Space.
Unless they are descendants of the True Spirit, there are higher-level wizards who collect elemental crystal cores for them to practice.
Shaking his head, Su Nan dispersed his unrealistic thoughts and his eyes fell on the powder made of elemental crystal cores on the ground.
Although the divine energy was absorbed, the elemental energy in the powder was still retained, which was equivalent to turning back into elemental crystal dust.
Wait!
Su Nan's mind suddenly flashed with a thought like lightning.
Elemental Giants are advanced from Elemental Spirits. In this process, the substances that form elemental crystal dust in the Elemental Spirit will gradually condense together to form elemental crystal cores.
It can be said that the process of the evolution of the elemental spirit into the elemental giant spirit is actually equivalent to the process of the elemental crystal dust becoming the elemental crystal core.
Does that mean that the elemental crystal dust can be used to synthesize the elemental crystal core with divine energy?
Sunan was immediately refreshed.
This possibility is still not low.
Just like the blood of the death knell striker, its blood originally contains a special factor inherited from the divine creature Hissing Alien Worm. As long as this factor is activated, divine energy can be born.
The same is true for the elemental spirit.
There is probably some special factor in its body. As long as the concentration of elemental energy reaches a certain limit, the quantitative change causes a qualitative change, and this factor can be activated. When it transforms into an elemental giant spirit, divine energy is also born.
If it is really as he guessed, then in the future, elemental crystal dust can be used to synthesize elemental crystal cores!
Hunting elemental spirits is much simpler than hunting elemental giant spirits!
After coming to his senses, Sunan immediately prepared to try.
The elemental crystal dust obtained in the thunder element space some time ago was still in the space ring. He immediately took it out and put it into the magic cube.
[Elemental crystal dust, purity 28.35%, contains rich thunder element energy, can be used to make potions, magic items and puppets, and can also be used to arrange magic arrays. ]
Su Nan kept putting elemental crystal dust into the Rubik's Cube, and his eyes were fixed on the synthesis interface.
The purity of the elemental crystal dust increased rapidly.
When it broke through the 100% limit, the information on the synthesis interface finally changed.
[Elemental crystal core, a crystal containing a huge amount of thunder element energy, also contains a trace of pure divine energy (0.1 standard unit), which can be used to make potions, magic items and puppets, and can also be used to arrange magic arrays. The divine energy can be directly absorbed to increase mental power. 】
"It's done!"
Su Nan looked overjoyed.
As expected, elemental crystal dust can be used to synthesize elemental crystal cores!
Although there is only a pitiful 0.1 standard unit of divine energy, it is successful after all.
Don't worry about the small amount, as long as it is not zero.
Even if there is only a little bit, he can rely on the Rubik's Cube to synthesize and grow.
Taking a deep breath, Su Nan calmed down his inner ecstasy, and threw the remaining elemental crystal dust into the Rubik's Cube, and finally synthesized an elemental crystal core containing 2 standard units of divine energy.
He then absorbed the divine energy in the light crystal core, and his mental concentration increased by 0.13% as expected.
The increase was not large, but it made Sunan excited.
In this way, he would not have to take huge risks and pay huge costs to hunt elemental giants in the future, and he only needed to hunt elemental spirits.
Originally, he just wanted to develop another channel to obtain divine energy, but he did not expect to find a low-cost and fast way to improve mental concentration. Sunan was so happy at this moment.
His eyes fell on the powder that the elemental crystal core had just turned into, and Sunan suddenly had an idea.
I wonder if these elemental crystal dusts can be reused?
If possible
Sunan's eyes lit up, and he immediately put all the powders into the magic cube.
But disappointingly, the elemental crystal core synthesized this time did not contain divine energy.
"Is it because the special factor was absorbed along with the divine energy?"
Disappointed, Sunan thought about it and quickly understood.
Without the special factor, these elemental crystal dusts naturally could no longer stimulate divine energy and could only be used as ordinary materials.
Shaking his head, Sunan quickly calmed down.
Although it was a pity, it was good enough to find a way to synthesize elemental crystal cores.
With this method, he could break through to the first-level liquefaction stage in two or three years at most.
This was much shorter than the originally expected time.
"According to this trend, maybe before the plane barrier is restored, I have the hope of being promoted to a second-level wizard."
A smile appeared on Sunan's lips.
Even in the vast multiverse, a second-level wizard can be considered a strong man.
You can fight against the Dark Throne or join other wizard forces.
No wizard force will refuse the joining of a second-level wizard with a clean background.
Promote to a second-level wizard and build a wizard tower.
Sunan set himself a goal for the next seven hundred years.
