One skill point per second, I turn fireballs into forbidden spells.

Chapter 697: First enhancement directly +5, you say that's not good enough?!
While Wan Chongshan was still in shock, Lin Yi had already swung his hammer dozens of times, successfully upgrading the not-so-good equipment to +4.

This level of enhancement is very common across the entire planet Earth; people with this ability are a dime a dozen.

However, among mage-type classes, Lin Yi is currently the only one who can do this.

Lin Yi continued to strike with the hammer, but compared to the initial enhancement levels of 1-4, his hammer swings were much slower this time, and the relaxed look on his face gradually faded, replaced by a solemn expression.

With each hammer blow, Lin Yi became much more serious than before. As a result, it took Lin Yi a full nine minutes to complete the last hammer blow for the equipment upgrade from level 4 to 5.

Whether it was because he was working too hard or because the temperature in the Divine Forging Bureau was relatively high, Lin Yi's forehead was unusually covered with a dense layer of sweat.

Is this the end of the story?
Lin Yi gritted his teeth, his heart filled with resentment.

Even knowing that his equipment enhancement to level 5-6 would most likely fail, he was not burdened by his idol image. He picked up his sledgehammer and began further enhancement.

As it turned out, it was exactly as Lin Yi had imagined.

Sun Dachuan had already written down his insights on the Enhancement Technique. Since Lin Yi was previously unable to learn skills from other professions, he couldn't use this book of insights even if he obtained it.

But with the inner court, Lin Yi was no longer bound by professional restrictions.

He mastered a simple enhancement technique after only a few deductions.

Only then, to Wan Chongshan's astonishment, did the equipment enhancement begin.

Ding~
A crisp metallic clang rang out, and Lin Yi froze on the spot.

Seeing the cracks appear in the equipment in his hands, Lin Yi finally stopped.

"So, this is my limit? I'm still far behind Brother Da Chuan."

Lin Yi's words seem reasonable at first glance, but upon closer inspection, isn't this just Versailles?

It's true that Sun Dachuan can upgrade equipment up to +30, but how long has he been researching equipment enhancement? How many pieces of equipment has he destroyed before mastering such a technique?

As for the others, needless to say, they spent quite a bit of time just learning the basics of enhancing their abilities.

Lin Yi started using the skill book as soon as he got it, and upgraded his equipment to +5 in one go. With such extraordinary talent, he still said that he was far inferior to Sun Dachuan. What else could this be but Versailles?

It's worth noting that even for a genius like Sun Dachuan, it took him over a month to go from zero to being able to upgrade equipment to +5.

Upon hearing this, Sun Dachuan's face was filled with embarrassment.

"Dean Lin Yi, please stop mocking me. You're a mage. Looking across the entire Blue Star, who else but you could do this? Besides, with your talent, it wouldn't be a problem for you to surpass me in enhancement techniques with just a little time."

How can we compete?

Sun Dachuan picked up the equipment that Lin Yi had mistakenly upgraded to the point of shattering, examined it carefully, and quickly found out the reason for Lin Yi's failure, which he then told Lin Yi.

Given Lin Yi's talent, once he understands the problem, the next enhancement will surely be successful.

The arrangements of the Divine Forging Bureau have been finalized, and Lin Yi and his group have done almost everything they needed to do.

Next, he needed to consider his own affairs—comprehending the [Tian Shu Qi Jing].

That is, the unbreakable part of the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts.

No single volume of the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts is useless or mediocre.

Mastering this technique thoroughly will be of paramount importance in future adventures. Lin Yi has already done more than enough: incorporating the Divine Forging Bureau into the official government of the Great Xia Dynasty, providing so many materials needed to strengthen equipment, and bringing a certain number of Spirit Awakening Stones to the Divine Firmament.

Taking advantage of his time back, Lin Yi planned to thoroughly study the cultivation technique he had obtained from Zhang Yun.

Since the Spirit Stone was brought back and the war gods of various countries on Earth gained inner-field abilities, the Antarctic Ice Cave has become the most bustling training ground.

An environment where one day is equivalent to a hundred days of training was rarely favored by war gods in the past.

Because the Antarctic ice is considered an independent space, you can't farm materials or complete missions inside. The biggest improvement under such cultivation conditions is in the understanding of the power of laws.

For Lin Yi, it was alright. For ordinary war gods, improving their understanding of the laws couldn't be accomplished in a hundred days. Didn't they all seek breakthroughs in life-and-death battles?

So even if it had the effect of one day equaling a hundred days, it was still very deserted.

"Greetings, Lord Dragon God and War God!"

With Lingyue as his mode of transportation, Lin Yi only spent a dozen minutes to successfully travel from Shenxiao to Antarctica and land safely at the location of the Antarctic ice cave.

The place where you need to exchange military merits to enter is a key area of ​​Blue Star, so it has always been guarded by powerful guards.

Upon seeing the Lingyue hatch open, Lin Yi stepped out, and several guards with strength at the War God level respectfully stepped forward and saluted him.

"Are they all right?"

Lin Yi smiled slightly and used a gentle manipulation of gravity to lift the bodies of the group up slightly.

Before returning to Earth, Lin Yi brought the Enlightenment Stone into the Necromancer Space, helping Xi Yue and Xiao Ao Shu successfully open up the inner area.

After obtaining a number of skill books from Lin Yi, the two women entered the Antarctic ice cave to begin their training.

Both women were already quite talented.

With ample time to cultivate, their strength improves rapidly.

Especially for Xiao Ao Shu, who is a dragon, it would be extremely difficult for her to cultivate a skill before gaining access to the inner field.

However, after gaining the ability to practice continuously in the inner field, she had already cultivated the ice-type skill given to her by Lin Yi to the eighth level in the past two days.

Xi Yue was even more outrageous.

She had always felt that Lin Yi's gravity and lightning skills were particularly useful. Now, with the extra training time provided by the inner field and the Antarctic ice cave, she had already upgraded the gravity and lightning skills given to her by Lin Yi to the forbidden spell level in just two days.

That's right, reaching the level of forbidden spells is not the point.

The key point is that even Xiyue has obtained skills from a non-mechanical skill tree.

This is the power of the inner field!
According to the rules of Blue Star, professionals cannot cultivate across skill trees. Now, the existence of the Spirit Awakening Stone and the inner arena will completely break this ironclad rule.

"Respected Dragon God and War God, we will naturally protect your people. Even though the Antarctic Ice Cave has become extremely popular these past few days, we will not affect the people you brought. Rest assured, they are cultivating well inside, and no one is disturbing them."

Lin Yi nodded in satisfaction after listening to the guard's report.

Just as he was about to investigate the two women's cultivation, spatial fluctuations suddenly appeared behind him.
