Su Xing sat cross-legged, his eyes slightly closed.
He felt and guided the Origin Force within his body.
Like bamboo shoots breaking through the soil after being nourished by spring rain.
The layer of Origin Force armor covering his body extended outwards by several inches.
This progress was remarkable.
Originally, Su Xing could only barely control the Origin Force to wrap around the surface of his skin.
But now, not only could Su Xing wrap it around, but he could also feel the subtle differences in the Origin Force.
The surge in Su Xing's Origin Force cultivation level lasted for several minutes before it slowly subsided.
Afterwards, Su Xing extended his hands, sensing the invisible force around them.
Like the wind, but also like fire.
As formless as the wind, yet filled with the destructive power of fire.
Su Xing's mind stirred, and a wisp of Origin Force detached from his palm.
Then, Su Xing guided that wisp of Origin Force towards a rock several meters away.
A few breaths later, the rock remained unchanged.
At that moment, a gentle breeze blew past, and the entire one-meter-tall rock was blown into fine sand.
"Tsk tsk... Crushing the rock into sand with brute force isn't hard to achieve..."
"But the power of Origin Force lies in its formlessness!"
"In battle, if Origin Force is silently driven into an enemy's body, by the time they realize it, their internal organs would likely have been shaken into a bloody pulp!"
Su Xing's lips curled up slightly, clearly satisfied with this method of internal destruction using Origin Force.
With this technique of detaching Origin Force, spanning several meters.
Even a Martial Emperor-level expert could be silently assassinated by Su Xing!
"Next, let's try infusing it into the Spirit Sword!"
Su Xing's mind stirred, and the Ink Ice Sword appeared in his hand.
Immediately, Su Xing guided the Origin Force to completely cover the Ink Ice Sword in his hand.
The Ink Ice Sword vibrated slightly, letting out a series of gentle hums.
It seemed to be enjoying the caress of the Origin Force.
Su Xing slightly felt the strength of the Ink Ice Sword.
Its toughness increased by at least twofold, even the spirituality within the sword was more abundant.
If the Ink Ice Sword was originally a legendary weapon, then when covered with Origin Force, it could potentially reach beyond the legendary level in a short time!
When Su Xing withdrew the Origin Force, the Ink Ice Sword returned to its original state.
But Su Xing could feel that in just those few minutes, the Ink Ice Sword had gained an imperceptible enhancement.
"I see, Origin Force can be both soft and hard..."
"Using Origin Force to nurture a magical artifact, transforming it into a primordial weapon... it's a process of Origin Force refining the artifact!"
"The stronger the cultivator's Origin Force, the longer the nurturing time, and the more the magical artifact is enhanced!"
Su Xing estimated that the natal artifacts of those Body Refinement Cultivators probably went through hundreds or even thousands of years of Origin Force nourishment to truly become primordial weapons that far surpassed ordinary magical artifacts.
After Su Xing withdrew the Origin Force, the Spirit Sword in his hand let out a series of gentle hums.
Su Xing could sense that the Ink Ice Sword seemed to express dissatisfaction, wanting more Origin Force.
"Don't worry, once my Origin Force is stronger... I will feed you every day!"
Su Xing whispered to the Ink Ice Sword, and only then did the sword stop protesting.
"Tsk tsk, after this simulation, my strength has increased by nearly fifty percent!"
"To break through further, I must consider the matters of the Broken Void Realm..."
Su Xing murmured a few words, his gaze landing on the Simulation Panel.
On the afternoon of July 29, 2024, New Era, Su Xing promptly started a new round of simulation.
[Ding! This simulation costs 4,700 points of energy, remaining energy 15.04 million points, unlimited remaining simulations.]
[Drawing a Green Talent costs 1,000 points of energy, Blue Talent costs 10,000 points of energy, drawing a Purple Talent costs 100,000 points of energy, draw?]
"Draw Purple Talent!"
Su Xing silently instructed.
[Congratulations! You have obtained a Purple Talent: Friend of Animals!]
[Friend of Animals]: A Purple Talent, you possess incredible charm and affinity with all animals and spiritual beasts, easily gaining their goodwill and trust, and can understand any animal or spiritual beast's language.
"Hmm? This talent... seems like an advanced version of the Level 10 Beast Speech from before?"
Su Xing raised an eyebrow, recalling the Level 10 Beast Speech talent.
The first time he was captured by the damned Zong and nearly turned into a Human Pill.
Back then, the damned Zong brought out a very strange Gu Insect.
If it weren't for Su Xing understanding the Gu Insect's language, he would have been tortured by the Gu Insect.
"Compared to the Level 10 Beast Speech talent, the Purple Talent Friend of Animals... seems to add the ability to gain animals' goodwill?"
"I just wonder, how strong is this goodwill effect?"
Having a talent that earns the favor of spiritual beasts was indeed good, and if the opportunity to enter the Cultivation World arose later, he might be able to contract a Spirit Pet.
If the descendants of Shennong are known for plant affinity, then the Friend of Animals is for animal affinity, both in the same category.
"But... my most urgent task now is to further my cultivation level!"
"The Friend of Animals can directly replace the Level 10 Beast Speech talent... when the timing is right to draw it, it will save the cost of expanding talents, quite a bargain!"
Subsequently, Su Xing set a target plan for this simulation.
"If my mastery of Origin Force can advance further, that would be ideal..."
"Of course, apart from Origin Force, I also need to start learning Protective Gang Qi!"
"After that, it will be about inquiring the secrets of breaking through to the Return to Void Realm and finding the extreme places..."
