The shortsword struck against the surface of the Cataclysmic Seal with a loud metallic cry. A brilliant ball of red light flashed out from the Cataclysmic Seal and immediately swallowed the shortsword.
The light died away moments later, but the shortsword was nowhere to be seen. Bai Yunfei, however, felt the +14 additional effect had indeed activated, so the shortsword surely had to already be absorbed by the Cataclysmic Seal.
The process seemed simple, if there was a process. It felt like the Cataclysmic Seal was basically akin to a bottomless hole and simply absorbed the shortsword āintoā itself.
Curious, Bai Yunfei waved his hand to call the Cataclysmic Seal back to him.
Upon observing its stats, Bai Yunfei noticed that the other stats didnāt change, but there was a small line saying it was in the āmiddle of absorptionā and had a Hidden Effect now.
Hidden Effect: 10% Increase in attack.
Pleased with the results of that experiment, Bai Yunfei stored away the Cataclysmic Seal. He might as well see how long itād take for the Cataclysmic Seal to absorb a low-heaven tier soul armament and how much attack itād gain from it.
Now, it was time for him to research something equally importantā¦
After a momentās consideration, Bai Yunfei brought out a +11 low-heaven tier longsword. Humming to himself, Bai Yunfei thought, āUpgrade.ā
His eyes narrowed as he focused on the Upgrade Technique. In one fluid motion, his right hand flew over the longswordās blade and plucked at something!

This was a pair of battle boots given to him by Shen Pojun not too long ago. Battle boots were a relatively rare breed of soul armaments, and his Lightning Boots had finally been retired. As wind-type soul armaments, these boots were especially suited for speed, and with them, Bai Yunfei was confident he could race with a wind-type soul cultivator in speed. As such, he called these the Galeburst Battle Boots. It was a rather common name, but he was sure its power would be top-notch.
There were also a few other soul armaments Bai Yunfei upgraded, such as the Double Dragon Spectre, the Heavenās Bloodtear Sword, the long-since retired Desert Eagles, the Devouring Chains, and a few others. All of which were now +12 and had effects that could be stated later when they were used.
In short, Bai Yunfei gained a vast increase in strength after upgrading the Cataclysmic Seal to +14. Truly, Bai Yunfeiās strength had skyrocketed in no time at all.
He had also gained the ability to upgrade soul armaments to +12, which would also be a good thing for those near Bai Yunfei. It could be said that the entire Crafting School would benefit from this.
It wasnāt until another hour before Bai Yunfei stopped upgrading. Organizing all his soul armaments and putting them away, he began to rest his mind.
Bai Yunfei just never imagined that heād be in store for another pleasant surprise after he was done restingā¦
