Chapter 207: Breakthrough in Meditation Technique
With these thoughts, Jiang Cheng stood up and left the auction hall.
Following the instructions, he went to make the payment and collect his purchased items.
Not far away, the woman in sunglasses hesitated for a moment but ultimately decided against following him.
In truth, she had been keeping a close eye on Jiang Cheng.
When she saw him successfully bid for several bottles of Intermediate Spirit Nourishing Pills, she felt a mix of envy and resentment.
She considered making things more challenging for Jiang Cheng, but the few tens of thousands of credits she had were meant for bidding on the secret medicines later.
If she bid on the Spirit Nourishing Pills and the seller noticed, they might withdraw, and she wouldn't be able to buy the secret medicines afterward.
After much deliberation, she decided against it.
One reason she didn't follow was to avoid this very situation.
Additionally, even if she did follow Jiang Cheng, there was a high probability they wouldn't be teleported to the same location, and it would just be a waste of time.
But she marked this grudge for another day.
Jiang Cheng proceeded to the back, entered his password, and his account balance instantly dropped to just over ten thousand credits. Simultaneously, a large package of Spirit Nourishing Pills was handed to him.
Jiang Cheng carefully checked the contents, ensuring everything was correct before heading toward the teleportation room.
There were three rooms, each containing a small teleportation array.
Only one person could enter at a time; others had to either go to the other two rooms or wait outside.
Jiang Cheng arrived just in time; the right room had just finished teleporting, and he entered as the door behind him automatically closed.
In the center of the room was a circular platform made of rocks, surrounded by stone pillars adorned with enigmatic patterns. In the middle was a raised platform, just large enough for one person to stand on.
Two masked men stood outside the array, and one pointed to a map on the wall, "Choose a location within this map, no need to speak, just point."
Jiang Cheng stepped forward and selected a spot close to his home.
After all, no one here knew where he lived, and if he chose a roundabout route, the chances of encountering danger on the way back would be higher.
"Do you have the token on you?"
Jiang Cheng nodded.
"Then just step onto the platform."
Jiang Cheng walked to the center and stood on the raised platform.
"3."
"2."
"1."
Jiang Cheng felt a surge of wonder as he opened his eyes and found himself in a residential complex, surrounded by darkness.
He quickly checked his right hand; the bag was still there, feeling heavy with its contents.
He then examined his body and found no injuries.
After a moment of confusion, he whispered, "This is truly amazing."
Jiang Cheng confidently walked out of the complex, his figure soon disappearing into the night.
As he neared home, Jiang Cheng climbed over the wall and entered the complex.
He took out his keys and unlocked the door, finally letting out a sigh of relief once inside.
Throughout the journey, he had been nervous, fearing someone might intercept him. But he knew that within a 500-meter radius, the chances of encountering an interloper were slim.
Footsteps sounded in the bedroom.
Jiang Cheng quickly removed his mask.
"Click."
The door opened, and Chen Sao poked her head out, asking with concern, "Xiao Cheng, are you back? Have you eaten? If not, I can make you something."
"I've eaten."
Jiang Cheng smiled, "Chen Sao, it's getting late. You should go to sleep, and I'll freshen up and do the same."
"Okay, remember to sleep early."
Chen Sao smiled and closed the door.
Jiang Cheng hurried to his bedroom and locked the door.
He took out the Visualization Chart he had kept in his bag.
After unfolding it, he began to study it.
Five seconds passed, and he gained a point of experience.
As time went on, Jiang Cheng felt a bit of fatigue, so he took out the Spirit Nourishing Pills and popped them into his mouth one by one.
Unbeknownst to him, six hours had passed.
The experience points from his visualization technique finally reached ten thousand.
"Boom!"
It was as if something had exploded in his mind.
Immediately after, a surge of energy five times more potent than before coursed through his mind.
Never had he felt so lucid as he did at this moment.
Jiang Cheng snapped back to his senses and quickly looked at the interface.
【Lotus Visualization Technique (Proficient Level): Proficiency Achieved】
Indeed, he had reached the proficient level.
However, the experience bar no longer appeared afterward.
After all, the visualization technique he obtained only covered up to the proficient level.
"This is a bit tricky," Jiang Cheng frowned.
The subsequent content would definitely not be available for purchase within the Society.
Otherwise, he would be exposing his identity as a Mind Master.
Moreover, the speed of his progress was too fast. He feared they might capture him for experimentation or inquire about his secrets.
Unable to purchase it within the Society, he could only seek a solution in the black market.
The black market auction had two sessions, with the first dedicated to Mind Masters, requiring proof of identity for entry.
He couldn't attend during the day, but now he should be able to.
Jiang Cheng glanced at an empty bottle on the table.
With a thought, the empty bottle floated into the air.
Jiang Cheng had another idea.
The bottle shot through the air and crashed into the wooden door.
"Smash!"
It fell to the ground, shattering into pieces.
Although he had mentally prepared himself, the success still thrilled him.
The next moment, he took out a pistol magazine he carried and removed a bullet.
Using his psychic energy, he levitated the bullet and accelerated its movement.
Indeed, the speed was significantly faster than before, so much so that he couldn't even see it with his naked eye.
"Maximize the acceleration!"
The thought surged in Jiang Cheng's mind, and the psychic energy in his mind instantly emptied.
Simultaneously, the bullet flying in the air suddenly accelerated, penetrating the cabinet with a loud bang.
It was as if it had been fired from a gun.
Jiang Cheng opened the cabinet and found a bullet hole in the wall. He searched below and found the deformed bullet.
"Impressive," he muttered.
The power of this bullet was almost equivalent to a regular rifle shot.
A hit to a vital spot on an ordinary person would undoubtedly be fatal!
Of course, with just this ability, he was still far from a first-rank Mind Master.
The most powerful attack of a first-rank Mind Master creates an impact similar to a first-rank Force Knight's punch, equivalent to a regular rifle shot.
Due to its small size, even with the same kinetic energy, the final impact was much stronger than a Force Knight of the same rank, plus the advantage of distance.
However, a first-rank Force Knight has more endurance and can throw multiple 200-kilogram punches, while a first-rank Mind Master, due to psychic energy limitations, has less endurance.
Upon reaching the second rank, a Mind Master's most powerful attack is comparable to the maximum power of a rifle.
After the third rank, they can use psychic energy multiple times. During the third-rank assessment, they can control multiple objects with psychic energy, and passing the test requires a total kinetic energy of 5000 joules.
For example, Nightingale, as a fifth-rank Mind Master, can deliver a strike equivalent to a heavy sniper rifle or divide her psychic energy to launch over ten attacks resembling a rifle shot.
