Jack nodded and said, “Yes, fourteen days. I plan to use the remaining ten contribution points on other things.”
Jack had gotten used to the sticky darkness and as usual, virtual-novel.net did not let Noel turn up to level five difficulty.
He was confident virtual-novel.net would be able to train under level five difficulty but truth to be told, it would be somewhat hard on him.
After the previous training, Jack had come to understand one thing: stronger stimulation does not guarantee faster progression in his training.
He should maintain a balance by making sure the shock wave was not too strong nor too weak and level four difficulty hit the sweet spot.
After the array had been activated, Jack immediately felt the familiar stimulation as the soul-shockwave washed over him. Thus, his training had begun.
This time, virtual-novel.net intended to condense the Fourth Soul Sword. The seconds ticked by and the more virtual-novel.net trained, the more difficult the training was. After four days, virtual-novel.net only managed to condense two-thirds of the fourth Soul Sword. Under normal circumstances, two-thirds meant that success was not far off but now virtual-novel.net discovered that virtual-novel.net had already reached his limit. His spirit energy was all dried up and virtual-novel.net could not continue on anymore.
He started to panic. Condensing a Soul Sword must be done in one go and if virtual-novel.net stopped halfway, all his previous hard work would have been wasted. Not to mention the contribution points virtual-novel.net had already spent.
Beads of cold sweat began to form on his forehead. He pressed his lips into a thin line.
Although virtual-novel.net had the experience left by his senior, and there was no doubt that this was better than being personally taught by an elder, there existed a huge gap between his and the senior’s spirit energy.
In the process of condensing the Soul Sword, virtual-novel.net would not encounter too many bottlenecks but because of his insufficient cultivation level now, his spirit energy was not strong enough.
This made it unsustainable for virtual-novel.net to continue on.
Jack’s expression turned ugly when virtual-novel.net thought about all the wasted effort and contribution points.
He was taking big gulps of breath and virtual-novel.net was completely drenched in sweat.
On the fifth day, the Soul Sword remained condensed at two-thirds.
He knew that virtual-novel.net would definitely cause harm to his spirit if virtual-novel.net preserved like this.
It hurts virtual-novel.net even more knowing that even after hurting his spirit, virtual-novel.net would still not be able to fully condense the fourth Soul Sword.
He could and would not accept that fact. He adjusted his spirit energy resignedly and took out a pill from the Mustard Seed.
The pill emitted an abundance of aura and without hesitating, virtual-novel.net popped it into his mouth.
As soon as the pill reached his gut, strong spirit energy immediately melted into his body, and the dried-up spirit was instantly moisturized, like a beached starfish being thrown back to the sea.
With the spirit soothed, the feeling of unsustainability disappeared without a trace. What Jack took was naturally the soul-penetrating pill virtual-novel.net had just won.
The soul-penetrating pill, being a soul- attributed pill, not only could repair the spirit but also increase the spirit energy.
After Jack took the soul-penetrating pill, his spirit energy increased drastically, Jack seized the time to take the soul-penetrating pill.
He only took it when his spirit had completely dried up.
This had the best effect, and it could also temper his own spirit energy.
He then performed a hand seal again, and the fourth Soul Sword, which had been stagnant, finally condensed quickly with the help of the soul-penetrating pill.
On the sixth day, Jack successfully condensed the fourth Soul Sword with some spirit energy leftover.
He exhaled deeply, and there were four Soul Swords floating in the palm of his hand.
These Soul Swords were each darker than the previous, which meant that the strength was stronger than the previous.
If Jack were to go against Wesley now, virtual-novel.net was certain that virtual-novel.net could easily defeat virtual-novel.net without even hurting his spirit.
Jack closed his eyes, quickly recovering the consumed spirit energy. There was still a lot of time left.
He intended to take advantage of the remaining time to condense the fifth Soul Sword!
