But it seemed it didnāt work this time. Eyes wide open, Bai Yunfei watched as the item turned to dustā¦
It took him three seconds to recover. Expression solidifying into a more aware one, Bai Yunfei scratched his head. āThatās enough for nowā¦I nearly lost my self in all that excitementā¦ā
His actions just a moment ago scared him. The overconfidence he had about upgrading definitely took over the logical side to him. Thank the heavens that he managed to snap out from it after just a single failureā¦
Bai Yunfei looked back to the three items he managed to upgrade. Three out of four was a very nice outcome, all things considered. The last item wasnāt even very important. But the +12 items he had now? Those were definitely important!
And even more important was how he managed to gain additional insight on how to upgrade items to +12!
If he had to compare himself, then Bai Yunfei would say he felt like a sailor who finally caught sight of a seagull. There was land in sight and a path to follow!
Like how he managed to gleam insight on altering the outcome of a +11 upgrade, Bai Yunfei was sure heād be able to safely upgrade an item to +12 with the remaining leisure time he had now!
Only ten minutes transpired in the world. But for Bai Yunfei, those ten minutes contained a treasure trove worth of valuable knowledge!
All in all, Bai Yunfei gained three new +12 equipment with new effects and new insight on the Upgrade Technique!
How great the Soul Sealing Mandateās new effect was didnāt even need to be said. But the ability for the armor to bounce back any attack? Incredible! And the ringās ability to hide its user? He might as well call this the āInvisibility Ringā. Mobility might be an issue with the effect but that didnāt take away from how great the ring was!
āHahaā¦this was a great learning experienceā¦ā
Bai Yunfei laughed to himself.
And so, another three days went by in peace.
It was one early morning when Bai Yunfei decided to emerge out from the Core World. Today was the day of the conference and Bai Yunfei thought it was nearly time to meet all the soulbeasts here. He hadnāt even walked out from his room when he was hit with a wave of powerful aura.
āWhat power! Areā¦are they here already? Thatās sooner than expected!ā
It wasnāt just a single aura he could feel. Multiple aura signatures were originating from the conference room! It was like an ocean of energy with waves of aura overlapping one another! He had to assume there were at least a dozen unique signatures, but he wasnāt quite sure of the exact numbers. Some of the auras were even stronger than the ones around them, so it made determining the numbers quite difficult just like how stars might outshine another.
That meant there were multiple class eight soulbeasts! Far more than before!
Hong Yin came in at that moment while Bai Yunfei was distracted. āAh, Yunfei,ā He smiled, āwhat timing, I was just about to call you.ā
āBrother Hong Yin,ā Bai Yunfei returned the greeting, āhas everyone already arrived? So soon?ā
āHahaā¦the first comers were rather impatient. The first arrival was last night and the rest came throughout the rest of the night. Father decided it was about time to call you and so I came.ā
āAh, I understand.ā Nodding, Bai Yunfei followed Hong Yin out from his room.
āHow goes progress on that soul rejuvenating pill, Yunfei?ā Queried Hong Yin as they walked.
āSome of the leaders were asking about it when they came. I believe they want to know if the rumors are true or notā¦ā
āI realized. Donāt worry, Iāll be sure to verify it for them.ā
The two arrived at the entrance to the conference hall and began to walk in. They hadnāt walked far in when Bai Yunfei stopped to look up in the sky.
Two rays of light were homing in rapidly on the hall. One was green and the other violet.
āThem?ā Bai Yunfei wondered aloud as soon as he realized who they were.
