Fane chuckled softly and said in a gentle tone, "I don't think I’m a genius. I guess I’m just a little lucky when it conies to spirit attribute skill cultivation."
Noel shook his head and there was a little melancholy on his face as if he had suffered a huge blow from Fane's words. He gestured to the Array Eye door with his chin, leaving him with no doubt that he did not wish to speak to Fane anymore.
Fane chuckled softly again and entered the door. Before he came, he wondered whether he should increase the difficulty level but after carefully thinking about it, he decided not to. There was still some way to go before he could fully adapt to difficulty level four and if he rashly raised the difficulty level, it would surely increase
his burden. The excessive impact from the soul-shockwave would not do him well.
After the array was activated, the soulshockwave filled the room again. Fane closed his eyes and performed several hand seals with both hands. Two black Soul Swords immediately floated up and down in his hands. This time his goal was to condense the third Soul Sword within five days and also keep track of the time inside his heart instead of wholly immersing himself in training. The last time, he had no experience, and the soulshockwave rushed away without any warning. Fortunately, at that time, his true energy and spirit energy were all used up and now he had recuperated. It would definitely deal a huge blow to Fane if the array was suddenly closed during the most critical breakthrough moment. After all, the opportunity for breakthroughs does not come by every time. If it was rashly interrupted, it would throw a spanner into his training and he would have to wait for a long time for such an opportunity.
Minutes and seconds ticked by and the third Soul Sword slowly solidified and on the dawn on the fifth day, he finally condensed the third Soul Sword. He was panting heavily while excitedly staring at the third Soul Sword floating in his palm. With the previous two successful experiences, Fane found it easier to condense the third Soul Sword this time.
However, to his dismay, he discovered that it would be more and more difficult from this point onward to cultivate Void Slaying. It did not take him long to condense the first Soul Sword but it would surely take him a long time to condense more swords further down the line. Not to mention the amount of spirit energy and true energy he would need to expand.
Fane was experiencing splitting headache, bloodshot eyes, and trembles after he had exhausted his true energy and spirit energy. The soul-shockwave was still impacting his soul and the stabbing pain became even more intensified as the barrier made by his spirit energy slowly diminished.
"I would waste ten contribution points if I go out now," muttered Fane. He started to do calculations in his head-he had been here for four days and one hour. According to the Soul Hall's rule, even an hour would be charged at a full day's rate so if he were to go out now, he would have wasted ten contribution points. The emotional pain of that was more horrible than the physical pain he was feeling right now.
However, if he continued to train, his spirit origin might be damaged and that was something he could not let happen. Thus, he had no choice but to leave. He heaved a sigh, slowly got up from the ground, and walked out of the door in one breath. Noel, who was sitting with one leg up and eating sunflower seeds, immediately stood up when he saw Fane’s pale face and bloodshot eyes as if he was terminally ill.
"Oh my god, are you okay? How did you end up like this? Isn’t the difficulty level the same?"
