Three Emperor-grade Cultivation Techniques in hand!

Su Xiaobai's eyes burned with excitement.

His whole body was buzzing with enthusiasm.

The seven king-level cultivation techniques he had just acquired had already brought him immense benefits. If these three Emperor-grade techniques were added to the mix… tsk tsk tsk, just thinking about it made a smile unconsciously spread across Su Xiaobai's face.

Without hesitation, he quickly began to browse through the three Emperor-grade techniques.

"Traceless Soul-Reaping Phantom Codex… An Emperor-grade agility-based body refining technique. Once mastered, it significantly enhances speed. Its greatest advantage is its ability to mark targets using mental power, much like space-based abilities, and its perception range is incredibly vast… it's the essential artifact for chasing down enemies!"

"Eight Desolations Flame Dragon Spirit Manual… An Emperor-grade fire-based cultivation technique. It is based on the royal beast, the Eight Desolations Flame Dragon. When used, it essentially summons a fiery clone of the Eight Desolations Flame Dragon to aid the user!"

"And this Golden Silkworm Illusory Scripture… Holy cow, it's a specialized cultivation technique for mental power masters!"

Su Xiaobai's eyes flashed with surprise!

The specialized cultivation technique for mental power masters—Su Xiaobai had initially searched for such a technique, but none could be found among the cultivation techniques offered by the Virtual Network.

And in all this time, apart from meeting Si Boyan at Base 15, Su Xiaobai hadn't encountered any other mental power master!

Since then, with Su Xiaobai focusing on martial arts and steadily advancing through a series of martial cultivation techniques, growing stronger and gaining treasures at every turn, this matter had naturally faded from his mind.

However, he hadn't expected that the one-click synthesis feature would randomly generate such a pleasant surprise!

Thinking back on it, it made sense.

Unlike the Virtual Network, the one-click synthesis doesn't have permission restrictions…

For example, Su Xiaobai can only stay in the Newborn City. To travel to the Taixu City, he would need to reach the Martial God level.

Additionally, the highest-level technique available on the Virtual Network is Emperor-grade, but Su Xiaobai can only purchase king-level techniques!

But the one-click synthesis randomly selects from all available techniques.

And so, it had even produced an Emperor-grade mental power master technique!

"Wait, I think I unlocked the mental power cultivation option in the one-click cultivation space a while ago, right?"

"Why haven't I had a breakthrough yet?"

When the one-click cultivation space reached level 20, it unlocked automatic mental power cultivation.

However, so much time had passed since then.

Su Xiaobai's level had risen several ranks, from Martial God to Martial King.

Yet, he hadn't received any notification about a mental power breakthrough… So much so that he almost forgot about it.

But soon, Su Xiaobai figured out the reason…

"Mental Sphere Level*… it doesn't automatically break through, I need to click to upgrade it?"

[*Psychic orb level changed to Mental Sphere Level]

Su Xiaobai raised an eyebrow.

This operation was a bit impressive…

In this case, couldn't he control the level of his mental power, upgrading it to whatever level he wanted?

He could even accumulate more mental power and then unleash it for a sudden burst of growth!

"Let's try upgrading it first. Let's see what level I can reach with the mental power I've accumulated!"

Su Xiaobai glanced at his current mental sphere level. It was still at the level it was when first unlocked: Ordinary Martial Commander Level.

He gently clicked to upgrade.

Suddenly, the mental power reservoir expanded several times!

The mental ocean that had once existed transformed into a star!

The mental sphere level quickly changed to: Elite Martial Commander Level!

Su Xiaobai clicked again.

His mental power expanded once more!

The star transformed into a moon.

The mental sphere level: Ultimate Martial Commander Level

Su Xiaobai clicked again.

The moon transformed into the sun.

The mental sphere level: Demi-God Martial Commander Level

It wasn't even the limit yet.

It could still be upgraded.

He clicked once more.

Boom!

The sun erupted with force, turning into blazing streams of fire. The entire scene instantly morphed into a starry sky, with stars scattered across the pitch-black void!

Mental sphere level: Ordinary Supernatural Starry Sky Level!

"It can still level up!"

Su Xiaobai's eyes flashed.

This time, he didn't click one by one.

He decisively began to click wildly!

In that pitch-black starry sky, with every upgrade, a massive star was lit up… each one a different color, ranging from green, blue, gold, purple, dark gold, and red…

With each level-up, Su Xiaobai could feel the terrifying expansion of his mental power!

Soon, he realized that he couldn't continue upgrading. However, his mental sphere level had already reached Third-tier Martial King Star System Level!

Mental power masters often crush others of the same rank and can even rival higher levels… Just like Si Boyan, who, at the Elite Martial Commander level, could face off evenly against Dongfang You, who was at the Ultimate Martial Commander level.

Therefore, this meant that Su Xiaobai, now, didn't need to lift a finger. With his mental power alone, he could easily obliterate anyone at the Third-tier Martial King Level!

"What if I add the Emperor-grade mental power master cultivation technique?"

Thinking this, Su Xiaobai wasted no time and began flipping through the three Emperor-grade techniques.

Having learned from the experience with the Chronicles of Time, Su Xiaobai no longer expected to understand them fully. He simply memorized them.

A moment later…

"Ding! [Traceless Soul-Reaping Phantom Codex] reached Highest Level!"

"Ding! [Eight Desolations Flame Dragon Spirit Manual] reached Highest Level!"

"Ding! [Golden Silkworm Illusory Scripture] reached Highest Level!"

Boom!!!

Su Xiaobai felt as though he had suddenly entered three different worlds.

In the first world, it was filled with countless ghosts, endless and densely packed. A figure wearing a mask, dressed in black, with a cloak fluttering behind, was staring at him with green ghostly eyes… The next moment, the figure was right in front of him.

"This is… Invisible!"

A hoarse voice echoed as the figure's green eyes flickered. In an instant, Su Xiaobai realized that he could capture every movement of all the ghosts within a wide radius!

No matter which ghost he locked onto, it was quick and easy. Even at a great distance, he could pinpoint their approximate location and see them clearly!

"This is… Soul-Slaying!"

Su Xiaobai immersed himself in the experience, savoring it carefully.

He didn't know how much time passed.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a world made of fire.

Roar!!!

Countless Emperor-grade Eight Desolations Flame Dragons were flying through the sky. They opened their mouths and spewed endless flames, ravaging the land and scorching it into ashes.

The intense heat instantly turned everything to ash… The land itself became a wasteland!

Su Xiaobai carefully felt the overwhelming power of the flames.

Next, he entered a world of stars.

There, he saw a massive golden silkworm cocoon.

Su Xiaobai could feel an unparalleled mental power radiating from it… If his own mental power was a small stream, the mental power emanating from this golden cocoon was an endless sea!

…

He didn't know how much time passed, but when Su Xiaobai opened his eyes once again, less than a minute had passed in reality.

Yet, the changes within him were earth-shattering!

"How strong am I now?"

Su Xiaobai felt that his strength had reached a level so high that it was almost indistinguishable… He couldn't even sense it clearly himself!

He glanced at his system's attributes:
