Three consecutive ‘upgrade success’ notifications appeared in his mind, causing Bai Yunfei to be stunned for more than ten seconds. Only then did he suddenly come to his senses and sit up.
He placed the Firetipped Spear before him, then sent his senses into it.
“Equipment quality: Middle-grade Legacy.”
“Upgrade level: +11”
“Attack power: 859”
“Additional attack power: 563”
“+10 secondary effect: When piercing, has a 15% chance of causing a fiery explosion.”
“Upgrade requirements: 90 soulpoints”
Bai Yunfei stared at the Firetipped Spear in his hand, his mind seeming to have exploded. “Middle-grade Legacy! It rose in quality! There were changes in both its secondary effect and attributes…and its upgrade level increased as well!”
“Eeee? Wait a second…” The stunned Bai Yunfei paused. “+11? It only increased by a single level? But I clearly heard three notifications of ‘upgrade success’. That means…”
He turned his gaze slightly to look at the crimson bracer. Bai Yunfei gently pressed his left hand atop it, then sent his mind into it.
“Equipment quality: Low-grade Legacy.”
“Upgrade level: +12”
“Defensive power: 613”
“Additional defensive power: 605”
“+10 secondary effect: When blocking attacks, there is a 9% chance of absorbing part of the attack power and converting it into personal attack power, releasing it with your next attack. It can be held for 3 seconds. The amount of converted attack power cannot exceed the defensive strength of this item.”
“+12 secondary effect: By voluntarily using up soulpoints, you can summon a flaming winged dagger. While using it, you will consume soulpoints. The power is determined by the number of soulpoints you pay.”
“Upgrade requirements: 86 soulpoints”
Bai Yunfei stared dazedly at the two soul items for dozens of seconds, then sat up, closed his eyes, and took two deep breaths. Finally, he calmed down his frantically beating heart.
“Not only did the quality increase, the upgrade level also increased by one level and two levels respectively…they didn’t fail!” Bai Yunfei gently stroked the two soul items, both excited and extremely puzzled. “But…I clearly didn’t issue an upgrade order. Can it be…that it was because I used it to share the burden of elemental fire?”
Bai Yunfei subconsciously rubbed his chest. Within his chest, there was a ball of fire that was like a heart, slowly pulsing.
“What a strange feeling. It feels as though my entire body is filled with elemental fire, and I can sense the elemental fire of the surrounding world…” Bai Yunfei raised his left arm, swinging it through the air as though pushing at something, then once more shut his eyes, attuning to his surroundings.
“The elemental fire in the air feels so incomparably clear to me…and they feel very friendly…eeee? These are…living creatures?” While attuning, Bai Yunfei felt as though he could ‘see’ outside the room. There was a little bird resting atop a tree, and all sorts of other little creatures living in the grass. Or perhaps, more strictly speaking, what he was sensing was their souls. This was the searching technique which only a person who had reached the Soul Sprite level could use; the soulsense.
“Eh? Someone’s outside? What a familiar feeling…it’s big brother Hong Yin and the others! They…right! This isn’t the time to be researching these things…” Bai Yunfei suddenly realized the most important thing right now. Lifting his head, he stared outside the window. It was already past noon; based on his agreement on that day, the Glacial School members had most likely arrived already…
By the time Bai Yunfei pushed his door open, he saw that outside the courtyard there were three people. There was Chu Yuhe and Qiu Luliu, looks of anxiety on their faces, and there was also Hong Yin, who was smiling while quietly consoling the two of them.
“Mm? Yunfei came. See? I told you, he’s fine…” Hong Yin, upon seeing Bai Yunfei walk out, first said a few words to the two women, then turned and nodded towards Bai Yunfei. “Yunfei, just now…you caused quite a stir. Fortunately, you calmed down afterwards; otherwise, I was at the verge of charging inside.”
Bai Yunfei chuckled towards them. “A small problem occurred during my training earlier, but I’m fine now. Don’t worry; I’m doing perfectly alright now.”
