After Jiang He customized a few Transcendent items and repaired the Phoenix-Resting Wooden Blade, he went home early to rest.
This was mainly to prepare for Thursday—
Two real battles had accumulated for him a full twenty-eight days of Twisted Time Domain duration!
This was nearly a month of unlimited cultivation time, far more precious than even S-rank resources!
To make full use of this period, Jiang He had made sufficient preparations in advance.
Getting good sleep and conserving energy was just one part of it.
He had also entrusted Old Jiang to go out and prepare food, pack it into a Spatial Waist Pouch, ensuring he could eat fresh meals throughout this month.
Of course, the pouch Chi Zhenshan had given only expanded its interior space through spatial properties.
Although it could store living creatures, it had no preservation functions.
To keep the food fresh, Old Jiang had even specially bought some preservation tools designed for keeping Transcendent materials from rotting, spending nearly a million in money…
It could be said he was eating the expensive kind.
Once Old Jiang had finished all these tasks—
Jiang He woke up from a sleep.
The time had already reached May 31st, Thursday.
He hurriedly got up, washed, and rushed to Central State First High School.
Once all the students had arrived, Zhong Honglian wasted no words and directly activated the resources, opening a new round of Twisted Time Domain.
With the spread of the domain, time within the school froze at that very moment.
With the second Twisted Time Domain opening, the students were already well-accustomed. They first went to the resource warehouse to extract resources, then sought suitable places for cultivation.
Jiang He did the same.
For this round of domain cultivation, he had a rather clear plan.
He divided the twenty-eight days into four sets of seven.
The first seven days, he devoted to the Prophet Path, successfully raising the Inspirer profession to lv20 and the Diviner profession to lv30.
The upgraded Prophet Path not only brought more skill bonuses, time affinity, and future foresight—
Most importantly, it unlocked a new construct—
[Tarot Combination]
The Tarot cards did not only consist of the twenty-two "Major Arcana," but also fifty-six "Minor Arcana," which could further deconstruct fate and supplement the Major Arcana's shortcomings.
The Tarot Combination was built upon this principle, forming richer effects through different major and minor decks.
Based on it, one could form entirely new skill constructs such as "Flame Envoy—Flame Body Near-Death Stream."
However, after Jiang He discussed with Old Jiang—
He temporarily abandoned the [Tarot Combination] skill group.
The reason was simple.
He didn't have enough skill points.
Although in the Transcendent system, profession levels had no ceiling—
As long as there was enough time, levels and skills could continuously be raised, eventually unlocking all skills and constructs…
But as professions grew, the difficulty of leveling would gradually increase.
Thus, "full skills" only existed in theory.
Normally, Transcendents had limited energy and would only choose one or two Paths as their [Core Path], then within those, select one or two professions as their [System Core].
Around these cores, they would conduct skill learning and constructing, making the most of every skill point.
If one grew too greedy, dabbling in everything, they would end up proficient in nothing.
At present, Jiang He's core streams were the "Buff Stream" and "Near-Death Stream."
Mainly, he enhanced mental strength and flame power through various buffs, gaining high magical output.
Then, through the [Flame Body] series of skills, he converted magical output into physical strength.
This way, the mental buffs Jiang He gained could proportionally transform into physical buffs.
It was equivalent to one buff skill giving him two buff effects.
That was why he was so powerful.
On this foundation—
Old Jiang designed an exclusive stream for Jiang He.
[Conversion Stream]
At present, Jiang He only had a one-way conversion from Flame/Mind → Body, and the conversion ratio was not high.
If Jiang He could, through new professions, new skills, and new equipment, obtain Body → Flame/Mind secondary conversion…
Even a small amount of conversion would form a "Two-Way Conversion Cycle," causing his stats to skyrocket!
If he could go a step further and include Energy in the conversion process, interacting with the other two attributes—
He could achieve: Energy → Flame/Mind, Energy → Body.
Body → Flame/Mind, Body → Energy.
Flame/Mind → Body, Flame/Mind → Energy.
As long as such an ultimate cycle was achieved, Jiang He's basic attributes would grow exponentially, becoming a true [Stat Monster]!
No matter what flashy abilities the opponent had—
He could casually throw together some skills and finish them off with basic attacks.
Of course, even Old Jiang had never achieved such a heaven-defying stream, let alone Jiang He at his current stage.
He wasn't even proficient or perfect at Mind-to-Body conversion yet and was still at the beginning.
He could only barely work toward it.
Therefore, the [Inspirer] and [Diviner] professions were only temporary supports for Jiang He.
They provided basic buffs before conversion, as well as battle power after conversion…
In terms of skill point allocation, he leaned toward straightforward [Extreme Buffs] rather than flashy skill combinations.
The first seven days ended.
For the second seven days in the Twisted Time Domain, Jiang He devoted himself to the Word-Spirit Path, successfully raising the Rumor Bearer profession to lv25 and the Word Keeper profession to lv50.
It had to be said, the Word-Spirit Path created by White Crane was truly simple and brutal.
Unlike the Sunflame Wielder or Prophet Paths, it only had various boosts, form changes, range expansions…
It had no profession routines or special skill combinations.
Just like the specialty [Myriad Words].
Pure raw numbers.
Even Old Jiang, after hearing the skill descriptions, could not help but sigh.
"Awesome."
Word-Spirit was too versatile.
So versatile that White Crane didn't even need to think about matching combinations. With just a flick of the lips, whatever effect he wanted would appear.
It made Old Jiang, who had started with such garbage talent, green with envy.
For the third and fourth sets of seven days in the Twisted Time Domain—
Jiang He devoted them all to the Sunflame Wielder Path—
First, because the Flame Body series of this path was Jiang He's current Conversion Stream core, and the flame power boosts it came with effectively enhanced his conversions.
Without a Word-Spirit talent, this path gave the greatest boost to his battle power.
Second, Jiang He possessed the Phoenix-Resting Wooden Blade. Paired with the Sunflame Wielder's Flame Seed Rebirth, he could raise his profession levels while simultaneously enhancing his three basic attributes.
His growth period had been too short, and his basic stats were too weak.
So he planned to use the Twisted Time Domain to make up for this shortcoming.
Fourteen days passed.
Jiang He successfully raised the Fire Controller profession to lv35 and the Flame Envoy profession to lv40.
Furthermore, he also successfully digested the S-rank spiritual elixir [Wisdom Bodhi], and together with Flame Seed Tempering, his mental stat directly soared past 4000!!
Compared to before his cultivation began, it had increased more than fourfold!
Jiang He's energy level also skyrocketed to 2890 points.
This rate of increase was already terrifying.
One had to know, his physical strength and energy strength, lacking S-rank elixir support, had only barely broken past 1000.
(D-rank Transcendents had an energy-level range of 1,000 to 5,000.
C-rank Transcendents had a range of 10,000 to 50,000.
B-rank Transcendents had a range of 100,000 to 500,000.
A-rank Transcendents had a range of 1,000,000 to 20,000,000.
S-rank ranged from 100,000,000 to unknown.)
At this point, the Twisted Time Domain finally came to an end.
