I Maximize My Item-dropping Rate - Chapter 74
74 Lunar!
“A total of… 100 Qi Locks!”
Xiao Shi counted. He made sure that he did not miss anything. According to the information recorded in the jade slip, there were a total of 100 Qi locks. After breaking 33 Qi Locks, one could officially step into the early-stage Qi Martial realm. After breaking 66 Qi Locks, one would step into the mid-stage Qi Martial realm.
If he breaks 99 Qi Locks, he would be at the late-stage Qi Martial Realm. If he breaks 100 Qi Locks, he would be at the perfected Qi Martial Realm. At that time, he could break through to the Blood Martial Realm.
On the other hand, it was impossible to break the Qi Lock with just Qi and blood. Usually, there were only two ways to break the Qi Lock. One was a cultivation technique that was specially cultivated to break the Qi Lock. The other was to rely on the special aura of the world.
!!
Relatively speaking, most people used cultivation techniques to break the lock. The Red Tiger Sect had many such Qi Martial Realm cultivation techniques, but they could only be exchanged with contribution points.
Although it would be faster to break the lock through the special aura of the world and there would be more benefits, these auras were extremely rare. Once it appeared, it would often cause a fight.
It was really not easy to see. It was very difficult for ordinary people to encounter a special aura. Most of the time, they could only cultivate obediently.
And it just so happened that there was such a special aura in Xiao Shi’s hand now.
And there was more than one!
Back then, when he obtained this special aura, he did not know the exact use. Now that he understood the cultivation of the Qi Martial Realm, he immediately understood the meaning of these auras.
Currently, he had a total of six Qi Martial-level items in his hands, all of which he had obtained in the past three years.
Apart from these six Qi Martial-level items, there were also many Martial Entry-Level items.
Although most of these Martial Entry-Level items were no longer useful, Xiao Shi had cultivated all the sword techniques, saber techniques, staff techniques, and so on, so he was already proficient in all weapons and his combat ability had increased greatly.
Apart from that, he also knew a little about alchemy, pharmaceuticals, array formations, poisons, detoxification, and even divination. In a sense, he seemed to be omnipotent now. He had dabbled in all aspects and was proficient in some aspects.
Of course, most importantly, there were six Qi Martial-level items!
Among these six Qi Martial items, apart from the Nine Vajra Body, the other five Qi Martial-level items were:
[Name: Lunar Qi]
[Type: Aura]
[Grade: Qi Martial Level]
[Introduction: A wisp of aura from the Lunar. It can break a Qi lock.]
[Remark: After breaking the lock with Lunar Qi, the Qi vortex will transform into a Lunar Qi vortex.]
… .
[Name: Fire Dragon’s Breath]
[Type: Aura]
[Grade: Qi Martial Level]
[Introduction: A wisp of aura from the Fire Dragon. It can break a Qi Lock.]
[Remark: After breaking the lock with Fire Dragon’s Breath, the Qi vortex will transform into a Fire Dragon’s Qi vortex.]
… .
[Name: Green Frost Sword]
[Type: Weapon]
[Grade: Qi Martial Level]
[Introduction: Forged from Green Tripod Steel, Extreme Cold Heavenly Frost, and other materials. It contains Frost Sword Qi. When injected with Qi, it can be activated.]
[Remark: If activated with Frost Qi, an even stronger sword aura will erupt.]
… .
[Name: Qi Recovery Pill (Rare)]
[Type: Pill]
[Grade: Qi Martial Level]
[Introduction: After using it, you can immediately recover your Qi. The higher the quality, the more Qi you can recover.]
[Remark: Ignore the recovery of the type of Qi force. It’s the most domineering part of this pill.]
… .
[Name: Geocentric Crystal Marrow]
[Type: Treasures of Heaven and Earth]
[Grade: Qi Martial Level]
[Introduction: Crystal Marrow produced in the depths of the earth’s core.]
[Remark: It will take a certain amount of time to refine.]
… .
Among these five Qi Martial-level items, the Geocentric Crystal Marrow, which was a heavenly treasure, had already been refined by Xiao Shi for the cultivation of the Vajra Skin. It was only a heavenly treasure, but it was not enough to cultivate the Vajra Skin. Still, it has made good progress.
As for the remaining four items, Xiao Shi focused on the [Lunar Qi] and [Fire Dragon’s Breath].
These two special auras could both break a Qi Lock. It could also transform the Qi vortex into a special Qi vortex.
Qi vortices are generally divided into ordinary Qi vortices and special Qi vortices. In most cases, the Qi vortex that was activated after breaking the lock was only an ordinary Qi vortex. Only by breaking the lock with a special aura could he have a chance to transform the opened Qi vortex into a special Qi vortex.
However, there was one thing to note.
He could only choose one special Qi vortex. If there were two or more different special vortexes, it would cause the vortex in his body to become chaotic, causing serious consequences.
“In other words, I can only choose one of these two special auras. And once I make a choice, I can only develop this type of Qi vortex in the future.”
Xiao Shi understood. He looked at the two balls of aura in his hand. One was the Lunar. One was the Fire Dragon.
Although he did not know much about these two types, Xiao Shi could guess. The Lunar should be more inclined to darkness and concealment. And the Fire Dragon focused on facing it head-on.
In comparison, Xiao Shi felt that Lunar would be more suitable for him. After all, he did not like to show off. It was more suitable for him to hide and keep a low profile. Lunar was undoubtedly very suitable for his personality. Moreover, Lunar might even bring about more amplification at night.
Thinking of this, Xiao Shi decisively chose Lunar Qi. He clenched his fist. He directly pinched the entire ball of Lunar Qi into his palm and poured it into his body through his palm. Then, he guided this ball of Lunar Qi to move around in his body.
Xiao Shi was thinking about which Qi Lock to break first. Not all the 100 Qi Locks in his body were the same. Some of these Qi Locks were stronger, while others were looser.
After sensing a few of the Qi Locks, Xiao Shi had an intuition that he might not be able to break them even if he used this ball of Lunar Qi. To be safe, Xiao Shi felt that he should not be in a hurry to break this firm Qi Lock. He chose a relatively loose Qi Lock. He controlled the Lunar Qi and surged towards the Qi Lock.
Boom!
A huge impact appeared on Xiao Shi’s body. He felt as if he had been hit by a huge beast, and his entire body trembled. Fortunately, his body under Body Tempering was extremely powerful. Such an impact was not enough to injure him.
However, if it were anyone else, he would probably be severely injured under such a collision!
Crack, crack!
As the Lunar Qi collided, cracks immediately filled the entire Qi Lock at an extremely fast speed.
There was a bang.
The entire Qi Lock shattered. A resplendent light spot emitted a dazzling light at the spot where the Qi Lock had shattered, forming a deep black vortex. As it spun, a dark black Qi Force was slowly born in the vortex.
The moment the Qi Force was born in the vortex, Xiao Shi’s aura changed. His entire life level had undergone a leap! A terrifying fluctuation that far exceeded the Qi Martial Realm erupted from his body, stirring up a storm.
“Qi Martial Realm!”
Xiao Shi felt the changes after his breakthrough. He extended his finger. With a thought, a wisp of black Qi Force wrapped around his finger. He stared at the black Qi Force. He could clearly feel that this black Qi Force was very different from the Qi Force of the Qi Martial warriors he had fought in the past.
“Their Qi Forces are all normal Qi Forces, but mine… is Lunar Qi Force!”
Xiao Shi took out a stone that looked like a black brick from his storage bag. This was a Martial Entry-Level material. Its characteristic was its firmness.
Xiao Shi placed his finger that was wrapped in Lunar Qi Force on the black stone. He did not use any strength.
Swoosh!
His fingers easily pierced through the black stone as if it was tofu. He could not feel the firmness of the black stone at all.
