Chapter 448 The Way to Breakthrough
Be king?
Ruiyun's expression froze for a moment. He touched the corner of his mouth and said with a stiff smile, "Sister Anna, this joke is not funny."
"I'm not kidding."
Anna shook her head, a look of obvious dullness on her pretty face: "Sixth brother praises him in front of us every day, why are you saying I'm joking now?"
"Are all those compliments of yours fake? Or do you think I'm not good enough for him?"
"Of course not. Everyone knows that Sister Anna is the most dazzling pearl on the Empire Tower. How could you not be worthy of her?"
Ruiyun was the first to praise her, then thought for a moment and said tactfully, "But you two are not suitable."
"Besides, my aunt wouldn't agree."
Speaking of her mother, Anna's mood became noticeably lower. She held her face in her hands and sighed, "I just don't want to listen to my mother's arrangements, so I want to find one myself!"
Ruiyun breathed a sigh of relief, and he asked why his ninth sister suddenly became interested in Lu Yun.
It turns out that the reason he said such nonsense was that he didn't want to follow the blind date arranged by his family, and he had a rebellious mentality.
Looking at the worried-looking girl, Ruiyun patted her head gently: "Don't worry, Auntie is only urging you to get married because she sees that you are old enough. She is not really forcing you to get married immediately. You still have plenty of time."
"Really?" Anna looked up, surprise flashing in her eyes.
"Of course, according to Imperial law, the marriage age for women is 21, and for men 23. However, most men choose to build a career first before marrying, which brings the average marriage age for men to 26-29. You're only 21, and you haven't even celebrated your birthday yet. You can still enjoy yourself for at least another five years."
Ruiyun explained patiently.
"Is this true?" Anna looked at Ruiyun in surprise, as if she saw a stranger: "Sixth brother, how do you know so much?"
Can I say that I was forced into marriage and use that as an excuse? ... Ruiyu muttered to himself, then replied with a smile, "Because your sixth brother and I have recently started to get involved in the affairs of the Empire, it is necessary to understand these basic common sense."
"Oh, okay then."
The little girl's worries came and went quickly. After getting the assurance from her sixth brother, Princess Anna's mood became obviously much brighter and she jumped away.
Halfway through the journey, Anna suddenly turned around and said, "Sixth Brother, should we have a chance to meet Lu Yun in this league?"
Of course there is a chance.
No, why are you still thinking about Lu Yun?
Ruiyun frowned and looked at Anna in confusion: "I can see you, what's wrong?"
"Nothing, bye~"
Watching Anna jumping away, Ruiyun fell into deep thought.
……
Inside the warm and bright cabin.
Lu Yun found a secluded place and diligently flipped through the "Essentials of Spiritual Cultivation".
After this period of hard work, he has read most of the book, and his understanding of spiritual masters has deepened a lot.
This made him sigh that the empire was indeed a huge empire that had existed for thousands of years and had a long history. Even the rare spiritual masters could find a systematic method of cultivation here.
"Which step have you seen? If you have any questions, you can always ask me."
A cold voice appeared beside him.
Lu Yun closed the book, looked at Neofa who was walking over, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, there is indeed a problem that is not a problem."
"You said."
Neofa just asked casually, but he didn't expect that there was a real question, so he sat down at the side and pretended to listen.
"I read in a book that the cultivation realms of spiritualists are divided according to the number of spiritual threads they condense.
The most basic ten patterns, one hundred patterns, one thousand patterns, ten thousand patterns...
But there's no mention of 'bottleneck'. Does this quantitative cultivation method not have bottlenecks?"
After confirming what is happening inside the academy's training tower, Lu Yun will confirm his departure.
At this point, Lu Yun once again sincerely thanked the Night Spirits in his heart. The gifts they gave him allowed him to raise his level as a spiritualist to a relatively high level without any setbacks.
In the past few days, he extracted some spiritual threads and raised the strength of the spiritualist to the level of six hundred patterns.
According to his estimation, the remaining mental power was enough for him to refine another 1,400 patterns. In other words, the gift from the Night Spirits allowed him to directly leap from a mentalist with zero basics to a high-level mentalist with the strength of 2,000 patterns.
However, the fact that there is no bottleneck now does not mean that there will be no bottleneck after these gifts are consumed, so Lu Yun plans to learn about this knowledge in advance.
Professor Neofa is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.
“Of course there are bottlenecks, but most people don’t encounter them, so they are not recorded in the book.”
Neofa first denied Lu Yun's guess, and then slowly explained.
"There is only one way to become a psychic, and that is through innate ability. The probability of someone like you becoming a psychic through acquired opportunities is too low and is not included in the statistics."
"And you know, the brain area of living things is fixed. It's extremely difficult to expand it. Just like IQ, whether a person is a genius or an idiot is determined the moment they are born."
Being beaten stupid shouldn’t count… A thought popped up in Lu Yun’s mind, but he suppressed it with a chuckle and listened patiently.
"While some exercise methods can appropriately expand the brain and improve IQ, they are only a drop in the bucket and generally cannot be repeated."
Lu Yun's mind moved as he understood what Neofa meant. "So, the upper limit of a spiritualist is determined at birth. As long as they practice step by step, they can steadily increase their level until they reach the 'shackles'?"
"'Shackles'? That's a very appropriate word. You're right." Neofa nodded, confirming Lu Yun's statement.
"What a cruel reality." Lu Yun couldn't help but sigh.
But then he realized that if it were that simple, Neofa wouldn't have told him this.
"But in fact, there is still a way to break through this limit, right?"
He looked at Neofa inquiringly.
Neofa smiled faintly, "Of course, the universe will never truly cut off the path of life's pursuit."
"Because these 'shackles' come from the inherent limitations of living things, if we want to break through, we need external help."
"You should have seen the Night Spirits' specialty, the 'Spirit Fruit', right?" Neofa looked at Lu Yun.
"Well, I tried a few, they tasted good."
"..."
Neofa's expression froze slightly, and his eyes made Lu Yun feel as if he had done something that was hated by God and man.
"What a lucky guy." Neofa shook his head regretfully and said:
"The Spirit Fruit is one of those 'external objects' that can break through the spiritual limit. The first one you eat will have the greatest effect. If you eat it later, the effect will not be as satisfactory.
If you keep it, it will attract countless people to come and buy it, and you may also be able to get other items that can help you break through the upper limit."
Lu Yun thought to himself that he didn't understand these things at that time.
However, the ancestral tree within the Night Spirit Clan has regained its vitality, and the Spirit Fruit Tree will also be recultivated. There will be an endless supply of Spirit Fruits in the future. Let's see if I can exchange for a few then.
