Being able to produce low-grade spirit stones meant that at the item exchange conference starting in three days, he had the capital to exchange or purchase. If he could make good use of the resources in his hands, his strength would surely increase significantly. While thinking, Niubi hurriedly walked towards his room.

Back in the room, Niubi was not in a hurry to produce spirit stones or practice the secret books. Instead, he sat leisurely for a while. Then, he used a black cloth to cover the window and walked to the door. He used the bolt to firmly secure the door.

After doing all this, Niubi's gaze shifted and he carefully looked around the room. After finding no omissions, he turned to the bedside, reached out, took out two secret books from the storage ring, gently placed them beside him, and then took out more than twenty ordinary bluestones from the storage ring and played with them carefully.

Niubi looked at the bluestones of different sizes in his hands, his eyes shining: "There are only three days until the item exchange conference. Whether I can buy good things depends entirely on you all."

After saying that, Niubi chuckled, used the spirit attachment technique, and guided the spiritual energy in the room towards the bluestones.

Time passed little by little. It was already two hours later when Niubi successfully attached spirits to all the more than twenty bluestones in his hand.

"Whew!" Niubi wiped the sweat from his forehead. His face was somewhat pale and he looked a little tired. But the excitement in his eyes couldn't be concealed no matter what: "Attaching spirits is really a physical task. When it comes to the next upgrade, I need to increase my physical strength!"

Niubi gave a wry smile, carefully put the more than twenty low-grade spirit stones into the storage ring, then closed his eyes and absorbed the spiritual energy between heaven and earth to restore his physical strength.

When Niubi opened his eyes again, it was already night. In the pitch-black room, there was no light at all. Only Niubi's pair of smart big eyes kept blinking, as if thinking about something.

Not long after, Niubi suddenly smiled, pinched hand gestures with both hands, and the spiritual energy in his body circulated frantically. A scorching heat suddenly emerged around him. Two deep red fireballs appeared in his palms.

As soon as the fireballs appeared, a heat wave surged in the dark room. Even the entire room was illuminated in a deep red color by the two fireballs.

"Merge!" Looking at the fireballs in his hands, Niubi shouted loudly. Then with a single point of his hand, the two fireballs seemed to have spirituality and fiercely collided together. With a dull bang, the two fireballs merged. And the color of the fireball turned blood-red.

A glint of light flashed in Niubi's eyes. A wisp of spiritual thought was injected into the fireball. Then with a thought, the blood-red fireball flew towards the table not far away like lightning.

"Slap!" As the fireball passed by, the candles on the table were instantly lit, illuminating the room brightly.

"Disperse!" Niubi's mouth curved into a faint smile. He reached out and made a grasping motion in the air. The flying fireball dissipated in the air as commanded and could no longer be found.

"If so!"

When he was in the library today, Niubi was thinking about this question. Since the fire bullet technique was something created by his own spiritual energy, could he control its quantity?

For example, the level of his fire bullet technique was skilled, and he would emit two fireballs each time. But if the two could be merged, wouldn't the power of the fireball be greater? With this idea, Niubi made the previous actions. But now it seemed that he had obviously succeeded?

With the result of the experiment, Niubi was overjoyed. He turned his head and looked at the two secret books at the bedside.

He gently picked up the Fantasy Step and carefully read it, remembering all the key points and precautions in the book in his heart.

After finishing reading the book, Niubi slowly got out of bed and secretly considered whether spiritual energy could be used as true energy.

From the materials he had read these days, when ordinary people practiced martial arts and cultivated true energy, it was actually a way to store the energy between heaven and earth in their own bodies. However, most people in the secular world had no spiritual roots and no systematic methods for absorbing and refining spiritual energy. So they could only absorb some turbid spiritual energy between heaven and earth through continuous practice. This was what they called true energy.

If his speculation was correct, then spiritual energy could be completely used as true energy. And the power of the martial arts techniques performed with pure spiritual energy should be far superior to those of ordinary people.

The more Niubi thought about it, the more it made sense. So he silently recited the key points of the Fantasy Step in his heart and then extracted a wisp of spiritual energy from the spiritual sea in his dantian and sent it towards his feet.

Beep, the Fantasy Step has been learned successfully.

The level of the Fantasy Step: Mastered. Proficiency 0/1000. Next level: Skilled.

Niubi was delighted upon hearing the system prompt. It seemed that he was really correct. Spiritual energy could be completely used as true energy. He just didn't know what the Fantasy Step performed with spiritual energy would be like.

Thinking of this, Niubi moved his legs. Spiritual energy swirled around his legs. Niubi firmly remembered the key points of the Fantasy Step's movement technique. The whole person kept flashing. In just a moment, there were two Niubis in the room. The two figures of Niubi intersected, dodged, and shifted positions. It was simply impossible to tell which was the real body.

Niubi was extremely excited. While moving according to the body technique of the Fantasy Step, he continuously guided the spiritual energy in his body to his feet.

With the increase of spiritual energy, Niubi's figure moved faster and faster. In a short time, there were three Niubis rapidly shaking in the room, then four, and then five...

Until the fifth figure appeared, Niubi's figure finally stopped increasing. Niubi was also so tired that he sat on the ground in a heap.

"This Fantasy Step is really powerful, but it consumes too much spiritual energy and physical strength!" Niubi let out a long sigh and lay on the ground.

Fortunately, the predecessor who created this martial art technique did not hear Niubi's words. Otherwise, this predecessor would surely be furious.

It turned out that the appearance of the Fantasy Step was created by a strong person in the secular world on a whim. Although the introduction of the martial art technique was domineering, this predecessor, until his death, could only barely create two clones with all his skills. And in the end, this martial art technique was not used in battle but for escape.

When his physical strength and spiritual energy recovered a little again, Niubi walked to the bedside with anticipation on his face, picked up the other book, the Angry Sword, and then flipped through it...

Three days passed in a flash. During these three days, Niubi either absorbed spiritual energy or practiced the Fantasy Step and the Angry Sword hard. To his relief, driven by the pure spiritual energy, the Angry Sword showed astonishing destructive power. This made Niubi's confidence double. He believed that if he fought with Zeng Baichuan again now, although he couldn't say for sure that he would win, as long as he could get close to Zeng Baichuan, it would be enough for him to have a hard time.

The bright sunlight shone in through the window. Niubi slowly opened his eyes during meditation, called out the attribute bar, checked the spirit stones in his storage ring again, and then slowly walked towards the door.
