[Meditation proficiency + 30)
[Fireball proficiency +30]
[Frost proficiency +24]
[Meditation Level 11-’13O/13O’]
[Fireball Lvl 11-I30/130′]
[Frost Lvl 11-‘124/130’]
An Kai thought that he had enough skill points.
He did not expect that as the skill level increased, the requirements to reach the next level would also increase!
Before [Level 11], every level required an additional ten proficiency points to reach the maximum proficiency!
After upgrading to [Level 11], the proficiency requirement had tripled!
To elaborate, he needed x/100 proficiency to reach maximum level 10, but now he needed x/130 to reach maximum level 11!
At this moment, An Kai suddenly came back to his senses.
He hurriedly checked his other attributes.
“As expected!”
Since he had 111 intelligence, based on his previous understanding, it should be enough for him to continue to improve his spells.
However, at this moment, he could only increase the proficiency of Frost and Summon, the two spells that were not yet at the full proficiency level of [Level 11]!
Just like spell proficiency, before the attribute value reached 101 points, he could increase his spell level for every 10 points gained in intelligence. However, after reaching 101 points, this was no longer true!
An Kai had his suspicions. He wondered if he needed to reach 131 intelligence before he could improve his spell level again.
If he wanted to verify this, he needed to increase his [Intelligence] to 131 points.
He needed 80 attribute points to increase his Intelligence to 131!
The | Immortality] talent limited An Kai’s improvement.
Before this, it required An Kai to meditate for 80 days without sleep and rest to gain 80 attribute points.
After this upgrade.
An Kai took out his [Meditation Staff]. He realized that the time it took for his [Meditation] to obtain attribute points had finally decreased!
Now, he only needed 23 hours. With the [Meditation Staff] in hand, he only needed 22 hours to obtain an attribute through [Meditation]!
Although it was only a two-hour reduction, to An Kai, this was a sign of hope!
For a long time, he needed to meditate for a whole day to gain 1 attribute point. Finally, things had changed.
Furthermore, this was a [Level 11 Meditation]. An Kai believed that as long as he continued to level up, it would only get better.
One day, he would be able to gain 1 attribute point for 1 hour of meditation. No! 1 attribute point for 1 minute of meditation!
After that, An Kai willed [Fireball] to appear!
[Fireball] didn’t continue to expand. Instead, its colour darkened a little.
In the past, [Fireball] was only light yellow in colour. It looked huge, but it didn’t feel very hot.
Now, the colour of [Fireball] deepened, and a scorching aura was emitted!
An Kai was in the Mage Tower. Otherwise, An Kai would have tested its power!
He waved his hand to dispel it and did not continue experimenting with [Frost] because [Frost] had not reached its maximum level yet.
He looked at the remaining one-third of the food.
An Kai chose to continue his seclusion.
He had yet to complete the mage tower quest, and his attributes had yet to meet the requirements to use the [Brute Force Staff].
Taking advantage of the fact that [Meditation] had just levelled up, it was time for him to push on!
Holding the [Meditation Staff I in his hand, he sat on Sally Buklin’s clothes and began his seclusion journey.
Three months later.
An Kai had the [Brute Force Staff] by his side and the slim [Meditation Staff) in his hand. He slowly opened his eyes.
He had finished his last [Meditation] before coming out of seclusion!
[Attribute Point +1]
An Kai let out a long breath and chose to add it to his Intelligence!
[Intelligence +1]
[Intelligence: 131]
Not only had his efficiency increased, but the changes brought about by [Meditation Level] had also greatly reduced the time he needed to obtain attribute points!
He had been in seclusion for less than a month.
However, his attribute points had doubled!
After three months of seclusion, An Kai had obtained a total of 80 attribute points!
During this time, he had very little time to rest. After eating, drinking, pooping, and summoning pets, he spent all his time on [Meditation]!
It was because An Kai’s appetite had increased again. His food was not enough to support him in seclusion for a long time!
For example, he had not eaten his fill for two days in a row.
The food had already been used up two days ago, and he was already rationing.
[Intelligence] increased to 131 points.
Just as An Kai had expected, the shackles of the four spells were broken again, and the familiar feeling of being able to improve his spells reappeared!
On the first month and 10 days of seclusion, An Kai raised his [Frost] and [Summon] spells to the full proficiency of [Lvii-130/130’].
It was also when his [Summon] reached Level 11 that An Kai summoned a pet that met the requirements of the Mage Tower Mission 2!
[Megalodon Pig: Level 11]
It was five meters long and weighed about 800 pounds. It had a mahogany tooth in its mouth.
An Kai estimated that the teeth weighed about 20 pounds.
It was also because of the appearance of the Megalodon Pig that not only solved the source of skill points but also delayed An Kai’s food crisis.
An 8oo-pound [Megalodon Pig] was just enough for An Kai to have a full meal.
However, the [Megalodon Pig] could not be summoned every time. Sometimes, it would be another inedible pet.
Sometimes, when he was hungry, An Kai would regret letting go of the three horses pulling the carriage.
In his opinion, even if the horse meat was a little sour, it was still much more delicious than uncooked pork!
But.
He had finally finished living such a bitter life!
An Kai was impressed by his endurance!
Every time he went into seclusion for a long time, not only did his strength increase, but it also improved his mental state.
For example, now, after a long period of seclusion, An Kai felt that his aggression had lessened a little.
He grabbed the [Brute Force Staff] beside him and muttered, “I wonder if I can smash through the Rewards Building with a strike!”
A month ago, his attributes had met the requirements to use the [Brute Force Staff].
He held it in his hand and cast a spell.
Only then did An Kai understand the use of this [Excellent Grade] staff!
Increase the weight of the spell!
Unfortunately, he was in the Mage Tower, so he couldn’t experiment.
He looked at the remaining 72 skill points.
An Kai added them to [Meditation],[Fireball), and [Frost].
[Meditation proficiency +30]
[Fireball proficiency +30]
[Frost proficiency +12]
[Meditation Level 12-‘i6o/i6o’]
[Fireball Lvl 12-’16o/16o’]
[Frost Lvl 12-‘142/16o’]
After upgrading, An Kai opened his new interface.
[Level 1:10/10 – Locked]
[Intelligence: 131 (Initial: 1)]
[Endurance: 130 (Initial: 1)]
[Stamina: 130 (Initial: 1)]

[Identity: Guide of the Wanderers]
It was no exaggeration to say that his strength had increased several times compared to before he went into seclusion!
The upgraded [Fireball] had a darker colour and a higher temperature. It was showing signs of turning dark brown!
After [Meditation] was upgraded again, the time needed to obtain attribute points was reduced to 22 hours. If he held the [Meditation Staff], he only needed 21 hours!
[Abandoned Mage Tower Inheritance Mission 3: Intelligence 400 activated.]
[Mission Hint: When your Intelligence reaches 400 points, you can enter the third floor.]
The third mission of the Mage Tower would not be completed in the foreseeable future.
An Kai tidied up for a moment and put the scattered books into his storage ring. Among them was the Fifth Princess of Bucklin’s Secrets.
Then, with the [Brute Force Staff] in hand and the [Water Repellent Pearl] in his pocket, he chose to leave the mage tower!
He had many goals for coming out of seclusion this time.
The first was to choose to sell things that he did not need and exchange them for skill points. The second was to store enough food. The third was to find a suitable temporary seclusion location outside of the mage tower….
