"Ding! Congratulations to the host, successfully refined 'Water Recovery Pill x16'!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host, successfully refined 'Three-Stripe Clear Spirit Pill x6'!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host, successfully forged 'Blood Frost Axe!'"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host, successfully forged 'Fang Painting Halberd!'"
While refining pills and forging weapons, Su Xiaobai wasn't idle—he simultaneously started upgrading system functions.
"Deducting 8.192 billion, the One-Click Cultivation Space has been upgraded to level 14. The space-time acceleration increased from 32,768x to 65,536x!"
"Deducting 16.384 billion, the One-Click Cultivation Space has been upgraded to level 15. The space-time acceleration increased from 65,536x to 131,072x!"
"Ding! The One-Click Cultivation Space has reached level 15, unlocking an additional ability: [Triple Acceleration]!"
"[Triple Acceleration]: Doubles the current space-time acceleration!"
"The space-time acceleration of theOne-Click Cultivation Spacehas increased from 131,072x to 262,144x!"
The upgrades didn't stop there.
"Deducting 32.768 billion, the One-Click Cultivation Space has been upgraded to level 16. The space-time acceleration increased from 262,144x to 524,288x!"
"Deducting 65.536 billion, the One-Click Cultivation Space has been upgraded to level 17. The space-time acceleration increased from 524,288x to 1,048,576x!"
"Deducting 131.072 billion, the One-Click Cultivation Space has been upgraded to level 18. The space-time acceleration increased from 1,048,576x to 2,097,152x!"
At this point, the upgrades for the One-Click Cultivation Space finally came to an end.
Level 18, x2.09 million space-time acceleration—a single day equals 5,745 years of non-stop cultivation for others!
"With this level of space-time amplification, by the time I reach Base No. 15, I should at least reach the rank of Advanced Martial General, right?" Su Xiaobai smirked.
The reason he poured all his resources into the One-Click Cultivation Space was to ensure that by the time he arrived at Base No. 15, he would possess overwhelming strength and be able to act with ease.
After all, Base No. 15 was a major stronghold.
There, Ultimate Martial Commander Dongfang You held command.
Additionally, there were numerous elite Martial Commanders.
These elites had all undergone the trials and bloodshed of the Otherworld, becoming extraordinarily powerful—capable of sweeping through opponents of the same level.
Take Commander Tang, for example. If he were to come alone, apart from Su Xiaobai, no one at Base No. 18 could stand against him!
Even a random elite martial commander could easily take on an entire base single-handedly.
Such was the terror of major strongholds!
This time, Su Xiaobai's visit to Base No. 15 carried the potential of facing Ultimate Martial Commander Dongfang You in battle…
Although One-Click Cultivation couldn't be upgraded for now due to financial constraints, One-Click Practice was still an area he could improve.
So, without hesitation, he funneled all his remaining funds into One-Click Practice, ramping up his cultivation speed like a madman.
A surge of brand-new, fierce energy erupted straight out of Su Xiaobai's body!
Advanced Martial General!
The powerful energy blast instantly overturned several nearby stalls. Yet, the warriors manning the stalls respectfully saluted Su Xiaobai, and shouted "Greetings to the Martial General!"
Though Su Xiaobai had made a name for himself at Base No. 18, his sudden comings and goings, coupled with the lack of official announcements, meant only a few people actually recognized him. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the ⓝovelFire.net
However, the sheer aura of an Advanced Martial General radiating from Su Xiaobai was enough to instill fear in everyone!
"It seems like whatever I wish for always comes true!"
"After breaking through to Advanced Martial General, I can clearly feel another significant surge in strength… Just how far can I push my limits this time?"
Su Xiaobai quickly checked his current status:
Realm Level: Advanced Martial General
Strength Level: Elite Martial Commander
Endurance Level: Elite Martial Commander
Agility Level: Elite Martial Commander
Cultivation Aptitude: Lowest Rank
Mastered Techniques: Immovable King Sutra (Beginner), Unified Law Codex (Beginner), Ten Absolute Heavenly Body (Beginner) [Entry-level and Insight-level techniques have been hidden; only Lesser Transcendent or higher techniques will now be displayed.]
Unlocked System Functions: One-Click Cultivation (Level 18), One-Click Practice (Level 17), Auto-Hunting (Level 10), One-Click Alchemy (Level 6), One-Click Collection (Level 6), One-Click Forging (Level 4)
"The system panel's level attributes haven't changed… It seems that reaching the pinnacle of the Elite Martial Commander level is far more challenging than I imagined!"
The path of a martial artist grows increasingly arduous the further one progresses.
Take Xiao Longyu, for instance—reaching the level of a standard Martial Commander might already be the pinnacle of his life's achievements. Advancing to Elite Martial Commander would depend on luck and opportunities.
Thus, relying solely on advancing realm levels to improve one's strength could at most allow one to stand on par with others of the same rank.
To truly dominate or even surpass one's rank in combat… the difficulty is astronomical.
This is why Martial Commanders place such importance on cultivating techniques.
When realm advancement stalls, the only option is to seek breakthroughs in techniques.
If a technique cannot be mastered, then the focus shifts to weapons.
And if one cannot acquire a powerful weapon or armor… Well, then you've already been eliminated from this martial world!
"Although my panel levels haven't increased, I'm certain my strength has grown significantly… Right now, I can not only contend with an Elite Martial Commander, but defeating an average one shouldn't be an issue!"
Contending and defeating are two different things.
Defeating and killing, however, are worlds apart.
The stronger the opponent, the more means they have to preserve their life. Unless there's an overwhelming power gap, killing them outright is nearly impossible!
"Now, I still have about 26 billion left…"
"One-Click Practice is out of reach for now, Auto Hunting can only be leveled up once, and One-Click Alchemy and One-Click Collection don't currently have much upgrade value… Let's upgrade One-Click Forging instead!"
"Let's see what new features are unlocked whenOne-Click Forgingreaches level 5!"
"System, upgradeOne-Click Forgingto level 5!" Su Xiaobai commanded.
"Deducting 8.192 billion, One-Click Forging has been upgraded to level 5. The forgeable weapon grade has been raised to [Lesser Transcendent Spiritual Weapon]!"
"Ding! One-Click Forging has reached level 5, unlocking an additional skill: [One-Click Repair]!"
"[One-Click Repair]: By placing repair materials, any damaged weapon can be quickly restored to perfection! (Repairable weapon grade matches forgeable weapon grade.)"
