Chapter 162: Borrowing Books

In the time that followed, Li Hao devoted himself solely to cultivation. With only a little time remaining before his departure, he refused to squander it. Currently, the most accessible enhancements were the strength of his internal organs and physical body. While others struggled to elevate these aspects, for Li Hao, it was a mere trifle; with the sword at his side, every challenge became inconsequential.

Having accumulated 210 military merit points, Li Hao exchanged them for 110 divine energy stones, equivalent to 1100 in value. Along with those he already possessed, his total of divine energy stones surpassed 2600. He subsequently traded the remaining 100 military merit points for 10 essence fruits, bringing his total to 20. One divine energy stone could convert into approximately 250 to 280 units of mysterious energy, with a maximum of nearly 300. Thus, at this moment, if Li Hao were prudent with his divine energy stones, he could convert close to 700,000 units of mysterious energy.

Additionally, with five source divine weapons at his disposal, each could yield at least 100 divine energy stones' worth of energy. However, it was prudent to conserve their sword energy for self-nourishment, as the effects would be significantly enhanced. Previously, Li Hao's internal organs and physical body had reached an absorption capacity of around 5000 units. Now, he was striving towards the ambitious goal of 10,000 units.

Though this may seem substantial, in reality, 10,000 units is not excessive, as it pertains to mysterious energy rather than divine energy stones. Each divine energy stone is valued at approximately 1000 units, and the energy contained within is considerably less, generally around three to five hundred units. In terms of divine energy stones, Li Hao had absorbed the equivalent of just over ten stones, but cumulatively, he had absorbed around a hundred stones. However, the amount absorbed does not necessarily correlate to the extent of physical enhancement.

Individuals like Nan Quan had undoubtedly absorbed a significant quantity of divine energy stones, yet their physical bodies and internal organs could not possibly reach the same level of absorption. With the fusion of the four forces, Li Hao found his requirements for internal organs to be even greater. Although his current physical body and internal organs could still withstand the fusion of the four forces, he needed to prepare for the fusion of five forces, which could potentially serve as a breakthrough point. Without a robust physical body and internal organs, he risked becoming the next victim of illness.

Mysterious energy was swiftly extracted, and Li Hao lacked for nothing in his energy storage ring. He had an abundance of mysterious energy at his disposal. At this moment, Li Hao primarily focused on absorbing energies from the dark and five elemental systems, along with wind and thunder. Among the common energies, he had never absorbed light energy, which was quite rare. The dark energy would enhance his concealment abilities, while wind and thunder would strengthen his skeletal structure, and the five elemental energies would fortify his internal organs.

Li Hao was genuinely curious about the light energy; what strengths could it confer? He had gathered a vast array of mysterious energy types, including numerous variants of ice and stone energies, yet light energy remained elusive. After searching for quite some time without success, he reluctantly abandoned the idea of experimenting with it.

Li Hao mused internally that perhaps light energy was related to vitality in some way. The wood element, while possessing healing properties, generally did not match the potency of light energy. Perhaps absorbing light energy could render him more youthful? Who could say for certain?
