With each Essence Enhancement Pill, Lin Fei's True Intention Myriad Transformation Technique was able to refine in one day. One pill could improve the training progress of the True Intention Myriad Transformation Technique by 4%.
So, in his cave dwelling, Lin Fei declined all visitors and started taking Essence Enhancement Pills.
One day, two days, three days...
In the blink of an eye, fourteen days had passed. Lin Fei had already taken fourteen Essence Enhancement Pills, and the cultivation progress of his True Intention Myriad Transformation Technique had increased by 56%.
"Boom."
The next moment, Lin Fei's True Intention Myriad Transformation Technique reached 100%. He felt a sense of immense joy as he had finally made a breakthrough. The True Intention Myriad Transformation Technique had broken through to the middle stage, causing his saber essence to soar several times over! And all he had used up were fourteen Essence Enhancement Pills.
"Continue."
Lin Fei didn't stop his cultivation. After all, he had only consumed a mere fourteen Essence Enhancement Pills. This time, he used his contribution points to buy a whole two hundred Essence Enhancement Pills. His goal was not just to reach the mid-stage of Martial Saint.
Thus, Lin Fei continued to take an Essence Enhancement Pill. Still refining one pill per day. However, when he refined a pill, Lin Fei noted the effects of the Essence Enhancement Pill. One pill could only improve the cultivation progress of the True Intention Myriad Transformation Technique by 2%. The effect was halved.
Lin Fei estimated that this was related to his increased cultivation level and the fact that the more pills he took, the less effective they would become.
2% cultivation progress seemed small but in reality? It was quite a lot. After all, if he didn't take any pills at this time and only relied on the True Intention Myriad Transformation Technique to "work hard" every day, even if he didn't stop, he wouldn't be able to improve his cultivation progress by 1%. This is due to the higher cultivation level requiring more saber essence, resulting in slow cultivation progress.
However, if he took Essence Enhancement Pills, he would only need fifty pills to make another breakthrough. Thus, Lin Fei closed his eyes again and continued to take the Essence Enhancement Pills.
Ten days, twenty days, thirty days, forty days, fifty days...
After fifty days, the True Intention Myriad Transformation Technique within Lin Fei's body shook violently. Following this, the saber essence in his body soared once more.
"Boom."
A terrifying aura radiated from Lin Fei's body. This time, he didn't exert any saber momentum. The mere power of his own saber essence was terrifying to such an extent, it was unthinkable.
This time, Lin Fei's True Intention Myriad Transformation Technique directly reached the late stage! His cultivation level also reached the late stage of Martial Saint!
From the early stage of Martial Saint to the late stage of Martial Saint, from the previous fourteen days to the current fifty days, Lin Fei only took sixty-four days, almost two months' time.
The saber essence in Lin Fei's body had already soared to a terrifying extent. Originally, his saber essence was much deeper than the True Essence of a Martial Saint at the same level.
Now, Lin Fei even had a feeling that he could try to condense the Qi Flower! Of course, this was just an illusion. Like his physical body, although it was very strong, it was still far from reaching the limit of Energy Flower. At least, if he tried to condense the Qi Flower now, the probability of Lin Fei failing was very high! Once failed, it could even harm his foundation or lead to more severe consequences. He might never be able to condense the Qi Flower.
Thus, the Saber Essence that Lin Fei possessed was indeed considerable. However, Lin Fei had not yet entertained the thought of condensing a Qi Flower. He had to ensure complete success, only then would he opt to condense the Qi Flower.
In condensing the Qi Flower, if he were to guarantee absolute success, the best choice, of course, was to elevate the True Intention Myriad Transformation Technique to a state of perfection!
Once the True Intention Myriad Transformation Technique reached perfection, the Saber Essence of Lin Fei would, without a doubt, surge to a terrifying extent. When the time came to attempt the condensation of the Qi Flower, success was bound to be within his grasp!

Thus, Lin Fei's attention returned to the Essence Enhancement Pills.
"There are still one hundred and thirty-six Essence Enhancement Pills. There are many, but I wonder if they would still have an effect after reaching the latter stages of Martial Saint? Or, is the effect greatly diminished?"
Lin Fei did not hesitate for long. One could only know by trying. Hence, Lin Fei ingested another Essence Enhancement Pill.
A day later, Lin Fei opened his eyes. He examined the progression of his practice of the True Intention Myriad Transformation Technique. This time, the True Intention Myriad Transformation Technique had only improved by 1%.
Nevertheless, Lin Fei was delighted beyond measure.
"Not bad, even though the effects have halved once again. An effect of 1% is already quite good, even exceeding my expectations. At this rate, it would only require one hundred days, roughly over three months. For the True Intention Myriad Transformation Technique to break through again, reaching perfection! Once perfection is achieved, I can attempt to condense the Qi Flower!"
A glint of determination flashed in Lin Fei's eyes. Such was the benefit of "contribution points". As long as one had a sufficient number of contribution points, a substantial amount of resources could be exchanged. In certain aspects, when resources were abundant, it could truly save a lot of time and energy.
Hence, Lin Fei hesitated no more. He continued to consume the Essence Enhancement Pills.
One month, two months, three months... Just this once, Lin Fei's seclusion had been longer than ever before. For more than three whole months, Lin Fei remained motionless within his cave. Even considering the additional two months prior, Lin Fei had almost been in practice for over five months!
"Boom."
After Lin Fei had consumed another hundred Essence Enhancement Pills, His True Intention Myriad Transformation Technique broke through once more. Progressing directly from the late stages of Martial Saint to the state of Martial Saint perfection. Moreover, his internal Saber Essence experienced a dramatic increase, surging several-fold in an instant.
"Swoosh."
Lin Fei opened his eyes.
"System."
Without a second thought, Lin Fei promptly called upon the system to examine the state of his martial prowess.
Host: Lin Fei
Martial Arts Realm: Late Stage Martial Saint
True Intention Myriad Transformation Technique: Perfection
Blood Essence Nine Transformations: Seventh Transformation (Progress 12%)
Holy Spirit Saber Technique: Mastery (Progress 58%)
Flame Burning Heaven Saber: Transcendence (Progress 65%)
Rainbow Transformation Saber Technique: Transcendence (Progress 10%)
Saber Momentum: Transcendence (Progress 0%)
Lin Fei's True Intention Myriad Transformation Technique had already reached perfection. Even the progress meter behind had vanished. This indicated an inability to further advance. Even consuming more elixirs would prove futile.
However, Lin Fei noted, even though the True Intention Myriad Transformation Technique had reached perfection, in terms of the realm, Lin Fei remained in the late stage of Martial Saint. He had not yet reached the Limit Martial Saint.
In truth, this was because Lin Fei had yet to condense a Qi Flower. Only upon condensing at least one of the three flowers could one be termed a Limit Martial Saint!
Lin Fei had only achieved perfection in his technique, he had not yet condensed the Qi Flower.
"Only thirty-six Essence Enhancement Pills remain. Seems their effectiveness is waning."
Lin Fei murmured under his breath. There was no need to fear the Essence Enhancement Pills were wasted, unused ones could be returned and exchanged back into contribution points.
The Ancient Origin Sect was quite considerate in this aspect. Of course, some intended to exploit this, procuring their own elixirs from outside, to "return" to Exchange Treasure Pavilion, acquiring contribution points.
Once such a scheme was confirmed, one might even be expelled from the Ancient Origin Sect. No one would risk the greater picture for such small exploits.
Lin Fei was not overly concerned about the thirty-six Essence Enhancement Pills, they could be returned at any time. What Lin Fei was more focused on was his cultivation. The True Intention Myriad Transformation Technique had reached perfection and the Saber Essence had surged to an inconceivable extent.
At this moment, Lin Fei was confident he could condense the Qi Flower. Upon a Martial Saint condensing a Qi Flower, they would be a Limit Martial Saint!
If one were a true disciple, they could instantly become a Martial Sovereign candidate, enjoying the best resources in the Ancient Origin Sect. Their status would be of the highest esteem.
Although Lin Fei was not a true disciple, once he had condensed the Qi Flower, his status and standing would undoubtedly be elevated. Let alone, the Ancient Origin Sect always valued Martial Saints with potential. The more exceptional Lin Fei's performance, the more attention he would receive from the Ancient Origin Sect.
Considering Lin Fei's time in the Ancient Origin Sect, in total, it might only be half a year. Condensing the Qi Flower so quickly, Was it not too swift? This concern was completely needless for Lin Fei.
In the Ancient Origin Sect, some even stumbled upon fortunate encounters, emerging from Martial Saint and condensing a Qi Flower within just ten days. Half a year for Lin Fei was indeed considered quite a length. Of course, that's the most exceptional geniuses throughout history.
In the current Ancient Origin Sect, being able to condense a Qi Flower within half a year indeed marked one as an unparalleled, top-notch genius. This was beyond doubt.
"To condense the Qi Flower, I need a tremendous amount of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi. Therefore, I must go to a specific place. Seems I need to make a trip to the Spiritual Qi Pool!"
Lin Fei knew that there were some special places within the Ancient Origin Sect. For instance, the Spiritual Qi Pool. It was reserved for those Martial Saints preparing to condense a Qi Flower.
Lin Fei did not hesitate in the least. He rose to his feet directly, transforming into a streak of light in an instant, soaring toward the Spiritual Qi Pool.
