222 Chapter 222: Nerve Accumulation Level 6



Nearly an hour passed as Yoze sat motionless inside a dark room before he suddenly shook, and his eyes snapped open, sparking with purple-colored sparkles. Then, with a single tremble of his skin, a faint purple mist leaked out of his body before rapidly disappearing into the room's darkness.

[Nerve Accumulation (Level 2)]

"This time, it took only 50 minutes to complete this second set of crystal nerves even though the complexity of its creation had increased. At this rate, the next one should only take 40 minutes, which is quick enough to no longer have any waste."

"Once I reach level 4 and lower the amount of time to 30 minutes, I should begin to surpass the rate that the Crystal Grape is supplying me with crystal energy. I predict that when I reach level 5, I can create my crystal nerves so fast that I will only be slowed down by the rate of purple crystal energy entering my body." Yoze muttered under his breath before closing his eyes and restarting his immortal cultivation.

[Nerve Accumulation (Level 3)]

Another 40 minutes passed by when Yoze finished the completion of another set of crystal nerves. Then, after sensing that the amount of purple crystal energy that had left his body had dropped to zero, Yoze smiled and continued to create another set.

[Nerve Accumulation (Level 4)]

Sensing that his intelligence and information-processing speed had again increased, Yoze adjusted his prediction of how long it would take him to create his next set of crystal nerves. From his initial 30-minute forecast, he reduced it to 20 minutes. He decreased the next set of crystal nerves after that to only 5 minutes which would be his limit.

The only reason he knew that he could drop it below 5 minutes was that the complexity of creating his crystal nerves inside kept increasing at the same way his information processing speed increased. Trying to create his crystal nerves tightly around one another in early preparation for the Crystal Spine realm, navigating the increasingly smaller amount of space, and having to deal with his Dead Crystal Nerves and regular nerves prevented him from lowering the time further.

After adjusting his predictions, Yoze created his next set of crystal nerves in record time, reaching precisely 20 minutes. Then, sensing that the amount of purple crystal energy floating in his body decreased to 50 percent of its previous max, Yoze knew that he had now passed the point where he had to wait until there was enough energy to continue.

Luckily with the fantastic treasure Immortal Patty handed him, the amount of time he had to wait was reduced to a mere few seconds. Once he sensed enough crystal energy inside his crystal nerves, Yoze went on to destroy his previous record and created his next set of crystal nerves in less than 5 minutes.

[Nerve Accumulation (Level 6)]

Even with the constant purple stream of crystal energy being sucked into his crystal nerves, Yoze still felt it simply was too slow. If he relied on the Crystal Grape's constant stream of crystal energy alone, he would have to wait 5 minutes until he had enough to continue.

That was longer than the time he spent creating a set of crystal nerves. Not only that, the time that he would have to spend waiting would only increase as the amount of crystal energy needed to create each set of crystal nerves increases.

At first, Yoze didn't understand why each of his immortal cultivation books mentioned that the amount of crystal energy to create each set of crystal nerves would increase. However, after completing multiple sets of crystal nerves, he realized that the increase in crystal energy was because each set of crystal nerves was slightly longer than the last. 

This length increase was because each new set of crystal nerves needed to travel a longer path full of twists and turns, resulting in the increased length. At the same time, each time he created another set of crystal nerves, his proficiency in creating crystal nerves would increase, allowing its quality to increase slightly.

This increased quality was enough to offset the increased length that would have resulted in a difference in information processing speeds in his crystal nerves. But with improved quality and increased length, the amount of energy Yoze found himself using to create each set of crystal nerves kept growing.

"I now have multiple crystal nerves, so I can devote some crystal nerves to absorb crystal energy for the Crystal Grape and the rest to absorbing crystal dust and transforming it into crystal energy." 

Not bothering to waste any more time, Yoze reached into his pouch, which was full of crystals, and dumbed everything out. Then, quickly counting that he had around 30 crystals of various sizes, Yoze sighed as he knew that this wasn't nearly enough to make a significant difference in the time he spent waiting to have enough crystal energy to create another set of crystal nerves.

Still, he didn't want to wait any longer to test out how much his absorption speed had increased after increasing his crystal nerve talent and reaching level 6 of Nerve Accumulation. So, placing his hand over multiple crystals, Yoze closed his eyes and selected the last set of crystal nerves he had created to be used as a storage location for crystal dust.

It didn't even take a second before he sensed a thick multicolored stream of crystal dust flying toward his crystal nerves before being forced to make a slight adjustment to their flying path. With this slight adjustment, nearly all of the crystal dust was absorbed into one of his sets of crystal nerves in a matter of a few minutes.

By the time Yoze opened his eyes, he saw that he had devoured around ten crystals in less than 3 minutes and was still hungry for more. Seeing that his absorption speed had increased so dramatically, he couldn't help but feel a bit stunned, but he regained his senses and converted the small amount of crystal dust he absorbed into crystal energy.
