Of course, Zhang Yifeng's mental storm is not without its weaknesses. Every time it is used, it requires the consumption of mental energy, and the consumption is quite large.
With Zhang Yifeng's mid-eighth-level mental body, he can only use it a dozen times at most. After that, his mental energy will be completely exhausted, his mental body will collapse, and his consciousness will disappear!
…
Because it was the first time to use Spiritual Storm, Zhang Yifeng used up almost half of his mental energy. After taking out this half of the energy, his mental body also dropped from the middle of the eighth level to the early stage of the seventh level, which was a huge drop!
The power of the mental storm that consumed so much naturally did not disappoint Zhang Yifeng.
After the mental storm encountered the black storm of the Sand Scorpion King, it immediately defeated the black storm and killed the Sand Scorpion King.
boom!
The spiritual storm rushed to the Sand Scorpion King and dragged the Sand Scorpion King into the core of the storm.
Here, a huge force hit the Sand Scorpion King, instantly smashing the Sand Scorpion King into pieces and turning into a mid-eighth order virtual crystal.
"The power of the mental storm is indeed powerful, but it consumes a lot of energy."
After Zhang Yifeng killed the Sand Scorpion King, he muttered to himself with a pale face.
After consuming half of his mental energy, Zhang Yifeng's mental body fell to the early stage of the seventh level. He felt extremely weak inside his body and his face looked a little pale.
"However, it's not too bad this time. The mid-eighth order virtual crystal should be able to allow me to recover the consumed spiritual energy."
After a while, Zhang Yifeng's face showed a smile again.
Although the mental storm consumes a lot of energy, after killing the Sand Scorpion King, a mid-eighth-level virtual crystal was left behind. This level of virtual crystal should be enough to make up for the mental energy he just consumed.
Zhang Yifeng thought of this, moved his body, came to the place after the spiritual storm disappeared, and picked up the virtual crystal left after the death of the Sand Scorpion King.
After picking up this extremely transparent virtual crystal, Zhang Yifeng's heart moved and he immediately refined the eighth-level virtual crystal.
With Zhang Yifeng's refining, the virtual crystal turned into a huge spiritual energy and poured into his spiritual body.
With the influx of spiritual energy, Zhang Yifeng's spiritual body began to strengthen.
Early seventh level, middle seventh level, late seventh level!
After Zhang Yifeng refined all the spiritual energy of Xu Jing, his spiritual body returned to the mid-eighth level.
Moreover, compared with the previous mid-eighth level, Zhang Yifeng's mental body this time is more solid and his foundation is more solid!
"Yes, a mid-eighth level virtual crystal can restore my mental body to the mid-eighth level. If there are enough virtual crystals, it shouldn't be a problem for my mental body to break through to the immortal realm!"
A glint flashed in Zhang Yifeng's eyes.
He finally felt the benefits of the virtual crystal this time. The energy of a mid-level eighth-level virtual crystal restored his spiritual body from the early seventh-level to the mid-level eighth level. If the virtual crystal was enough, let alone the ninth level.
Even if the spiritual body directly breaks through to the realm of immortality, there will be no problem.
Of course, Zhang Yifeng also knows that recovery and improvement are two different concepts, and the consumption between the two is definitely different.
However, Zhang Yifeng estimates that he only needs about ten eighth-level virtual crystals to break through his spiritual body to the ninth level!
"Ten eighth-order virtual crystals shouldn't be a lot."
After Zhang Yifeng estimated the number of virtual crystals needed to break through to the ninth level spiritual body, he began to make calculations.
With his current strength and the mental storm he has mastered, it is not difficult to hunt down the eighth-level virtual beast. Ten pieces of eighth-level virtual crystals should be available in a short time.
Zhang Yifeng thought of this and immediately made a decision in his heart. He decided not to leave yet, but to hunt virtual beasts in the desert until his spiritual body reached the ninth level before leaving the desert.
Therefore, Zhang Yifeng moved, first put away the remaining virtual crystals, and then walked into the desert.
Although there were about a hundred sand scorpions this time, the sand scorpions after merging with the Sand Scorpion King did not leave any virtual crystals behind, so there were only about thirty virtual crystals on the ground.
Moreover, the levels of these virtual crystals are also different.
The worst piece is at the early sixth level, while the best piece is at the peak of the seventh level.
After Zhang Yifeng collected thirty pieces of virtual crystals, he also started refining them.
Although the thirty virtual crystals seemed to be a lot, the combined energy was not as much as the eighth-order mid-level virtual crystal that Zhang Yifeng had just refined.
Therefore, after Zhang Yifeng refined thirty virtual crystals, his spiritual body did not break through to the late eighth level, but only reached the peak of the mid-eighth level, one step away from the late eighth level.
"It seems that if you want to quickly improve your spiritual body, refining the eighth-level virtual crystal is the best choice. The spiritual energy contained in the eighth-level virtual crystal and below is very small. I am afraid that a hundred yuan may not be worth the price of an eighth-level virtual crystal."
crystal."
Zhang Yifeng made a secret calculation and decided to focus on the eighth-level virtual beast as his main hunting target later.
Of course, if he encounters virtual beasts of other levels, Zhang Yifeng doesn't mind dealing with them easily.
Although the virtual crystal below the eighth level can't help Zhang Yifeng better than nothing, it can still provide Zhang Yifeng with some achievement points.
In the Void Realm, if you hunt a Void Beast at the early stage of the fifth level, you will get one achievement point, three points in the mid-term, five points in the late stage, seven points at the peak, and ten achievement points in the early stage of the sixth level.
By analogy, a virtual beast at the early stage of the seventh level has 50 achievement points, the early stage of the eighth level has 150 achievement points, and the early stage of the ninth level has 500 achievement points!
The Void Realm will be open for one month. After one month, Yaochi Immortal Palace will rank the geniuses based on their performance points, and invite the top nine to enter the inner hall, and the top three hundred to enter the outer hall.
…
After Zhang Yifeng refined thirty virtual crystals, he moved into the depths of the desert.
Although virtual beasts in the desert cannot be said to be found everywhere, they are not few in number.
Moreover, the most important thing is that the virtual beasts in the desert exist in groups, with a group ranging from thirty to fifty to one to two hundred.
Zhang Yifeng only went deep into the desert for three days and killed five eighth-level virtual beasts, fifty seventh-level virtual beasts, and hundreds of sixth- and fifth-level virtual beasts.
All in all, Zhang Yifeng harvested a total of 730 virtual crystals in three days.
Among them, there is one piece for the mid-eighth level, four yuan for the early stage, fifty yuan for the seventh level, and a total of six hundred and seventy-five yuan for the sixth and fifth levels.
After Zhang Yifeng harvested these virtual crystals, he directly refined them and did not keep them in his hands.
After refining 730 pieces of virtual realm, Zhang Yifeng's spiritual body was successfully promoted from the mid-eighth level to the late eighth level, and reached the peak of the late eighth level. He was only one step away from the eighth level perfection.
