Chapter 1086: Fire Egg Condensation
Wu Heng slowly opened his eyes, feeling the thick Earth Qi coursing through his body, subtly resonating with the ground beneath his feet.
With just one cultivation session, he directly broke through the First Level of the "Creation Scripture," even he himself was somewhat surprised.
Given his current attribute basis at the Heroic Rank, going back to cultivate this entry-level stage was naturally easier.
However, he could also tell that the cultivation difficulty of this "Creation Scripture" was much simpler than the "Body Refining Technique," and the method was more gentle.
It wasn't about violently absorbing flame energy to forcefully strengthen the body.
Moreover, with the "Truth Engraving Knife" forcibly gathering the energy of the earth's veins, providing a perfect environment for cultivation, the subsequent improvements shouldn't be too slow.
Quickly mulling this over in his mind, he got up, holding the engraving knife and gently swiped it through the air, the previously modified rules dissipating as the surrounding dense energy of the earth's veins gradually calmed down.
Lady rose from the recliner and approached him, scrutinizing him, "How are you feeling?"
Wu Heng smiled, "First stage, completed!"
The puppet raised its delicate brows in surprise, "So fast? You're not exaggerating, are you?"
"What is there to exaggerate!"
"Not bad!" Lady was somewhat surprised but quickly accepted it.
Starting from the "Body Refining Technique," Wu Heng's skill learning required cultivation. The previous Skill Book was something he could learn just by reading.
Now completing the first stage of cultivation doesn't seem all that surprising.
After saying this, she walked over to him and hooked his arm.
The "Teleportation Technique" was released, and the two disappeared from sight.
...
In the afternoon, Wu Heng took a short nap and then returned to the study.
Lady urged from one side, "Condense the 'Fire Egg,' so I can arrange to send it out."
"Alright."
The matter of the Fire Egg had indeed dragged on for a while.
Moreover, it was a means of preserving life, which could only be beneficial to himself.
He agreed directly.
Wu Heng held his breath and focused his mind, once again operating the Third Level Technique of the "Body Refining Technique."
As Qi and blood surged and spiritual power intensely concentrated, a glowing egg about the size of a fist, red as blood, gradually condensed in front of him.
Complex and ancient runes appeared on the surface of the eggshell, flickering like they possessed life, gently pulsating.
At the moment of completion, Wu Heng's face slightly whitened, but the powerful recovery ability of the Heroic Constitution quickly operated, and his blood quickly replenished.
When the patterns on the surface of the Fire Egg completely faded away, and its glow receded, Lady took out a carefully prepared Silver Silk Soft Cloth and cautiously wrapped it, placing it in her bosom.
"Can only condense this one?" Wu Heng asked.
"Naturally only one, you really think it's like those resurrection items in adventure stories, able to be used infinitely?" Lady gave him an annoyed glance.
Wu Heng recalled the places he knew that were abundant in Fire Spirit.
He suggested, "The Fire Egg needs to cling to a place abundant in Fire Spirit to maintain its vitality. I feel the 'Heart of Molten Fire' volcano of the Short people is a good choice."
Lady raised an eyebrow, "I'll consider it."
Seeing her dismissive appearance, Wu Heng didn't say much more, "Alright! You decide."
Lady then said, "This 'Creation Scripture' seems gentler and smoother to cultivate, and not as demanding as the 'Body Refining Technique.' You could let Mini and the others try cultivating it; if they really succeed, they'll find a quick path to improvement."
"Makes sense, I'll talk to them in a bit." Wu Heng nodded.
Next, the person and soul discussed their upcoming cultivation plans.
As the sky gradually darkened.
Robey's voice called out from outside the door, "Master, dinner is ready."
"Alright, I'm coming down now." Wu Heng responded, then opened the door and walked out.
...
He walked downstairs, heading directly to the dining room.
The family sat around a long table, exchanged a few words, and began eating.
After eating a little, Shanaela put down her utensils and said, "The response to the new merchandise is excellent. Retili from the Snake Badge Consortium came to find me earlier, hoping to continue being the agent for the sales of this batch of new goods."
During the time Gold and Silver Island was suppressed by The Holy Court, it was through the collaboration with the Snake Badge Consortium that a sales channel was opened.
Later, promoting "Hero Card" and accumulating fame for Viola and others was also thanks to the Snake Badge Consortium.
No matter what the rumors outside say about the Snake Badge Consortium, in Wu Heng's view, they've been very good to Gold and Silver Island and himself.
Entrusting the new product to them can only be beneficial to Gold and Silver Island.
Wu Heng accepted the drink offered by Mini, pondered, and said, "I think we can continue the cooperation; moving forward, regarding hero promotion and card appeal, we still need to rely on their channels. Maintaining a good relationship is quite essential."
"I think the same way." Shanaela nodded, "Tomorrow, I'll sign a contract with her and arrange for the goods to be shipped out."
After discussing this, Wu Heng glanced at the few people beside him and said, "I have a new Skill Book here. The cultivation method is much gentler; for those of you who can't learn the Body Refining Technique just yet, start with this book."
The few people of relatively low level simultaneously looked over.
Philippa muttered, "Sounds like another inferior item for us... though I'm about to be able to learn the 'Body Refining Technique'!"
Wu Heng replied irritably, "What inferior item? I'm cultivating it right now; it's no worse than the 'Body Refining Technique.' Get on with it."
"Really?" Philippa looked over skeptically.
Annette replied irritably, "Would the Master lie to you?"
Robey folded his arms and said, "You pirates really need to shake off this suspicious nature."
Philippa's brows furrowed, "Unconvinced? How about we test it at the training ground now?"
