After days of life-and-death training, he found that his understanding of the Proud Celestial Profound Scripture had reached a bottleneck. He was well-versed in how to transform energy into skill attacks and how to maximize energy usage efficiently. Yet, as these conditions approached their peak, he felt even greater pressure.
How can he break through to the Beast Venerable level and truly reach a realm where skills are released?
Indeed, Profound Water and the mutated Black Flame can be released outward to deliver a fatal blow to the enemy. But if he encounters a highly vigilant enemy, what should he do if these two killer moves fail? For someone like him, lacking in close combat abilities, it is very dangerous if the killing moves fail and no skills can be released!
Therefore, quickly breaking through to the Beast Venerable level has become the most urgent cultivation goal. But moving from a Four-star Beast Master to a One-Star Beast Venerable, how is it easy? There is a watershed between Beast Masters and Beast Venerables, with countless Beast Cultivators trapped here, unable to take a step forward even for half a lifetime. Only in their twilight years, facing a room full of children and grandchildren, do they sigh and regret forever.
The cultivation technique at the third level should have its outstanding aspects. Hence, although anxious, Su Chen was somewhat confident that he could reach the Beast Venerable level earlier than others.
Su Chen thought of his Wind Blast Flame, which was the closest to being a released skill, but unfortunately, its attack range was too small. If only it could be extended to more than ten meters.
He recalled Qi Ling and Leng Han, although their Beast Cultivation level was inferior to his, their understanding of the cultivation techniques surpassed his in some ways. Leng Han’s Sky Thunder and Earth Thunder had surprised him quite a bit. And Qi Ling’s Silent Break forced Long Fei into a corner and eventually defeated him.
Why could they grasp the essence of releasing skills, yet he couldn’t comprehend it?
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.
"Su Chen, are you asleep?"
It was the Phoenix’s voice.
"Not yet, what’s up?"
The Phoenix’s voice carried a hint of unease. After all, it was late at night, and as a pure lady, how could she dare to go to a man’s room alone?
Su Chen got up from the bedside, went to open the door, and saw the Phoenix smiling. Dıscover more novels at 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵✦𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮✦𝓷𝓮𝓽
She had changed into a green long dress, appearing gentle and serene, her long hair styled in a Phoenix bun, softly draped over her jade-like right shoulder. Her slender and graceful figure was truly captivating.
Su Chen could hardly associate her with the cold-faced woman from the other day.
"It’s so late, why aren’t you asleep?"
Su Chen sat by the table.
The Phoenix hugged a quilt, looking tranquil and gentle, smiling like a well-behaved young wife.
"Afraid you might be cold at night, brought you an extra quilt."
She walked to the bed and quietly spread the quilt for Su Chen.
Su Chen was slightly stunned, watching that graceful figure.
He shook his head, dispelling the distracting thoughts from his mind.
"Are your parents asleep?"
"Yes, recently living in fear and anxiety, today finally relieved, they fell asleep as soon as they returned."
The Phoenix replied while busy, her voice carrying a hint of gratitude.
Su Chen smiled, poured himself a cup of tea, and took a sip. The tea aroma was refreshing and pleasant, lingering and long-lasting. He sighed silently, no wonder the elders loved to taste tea, there was such an elegant taste in it.
"Su Chen, thank you for everything you’ve done for the Cang Family."
Without turning her head, the Phoenix gently smoothed the cool, smooth quilt.
Su Chen replied helplessly, "This is what I promised you, I’m just fulfilling my promise. Besides, even if we were strangers, I wouldn’t stand by while those wicked people run rampant."
The Phoenix’s body trembled, she slowly turned around and walked toward Su Chen. Her eyes were filled with Su Chen’s aloof back, as mild as tea fragrance.
Why is there such a magical man in the world? And why did fate let her encounter such a rarity? Why weren’t they born in the same country? And why did she fall in love with this former enemy during this brief encounter?
Her mind lost control, a strong sense of unwillingness surged, turning into a strange courage...
"Su Chen, can you promise me not to leave Muni City so soon?"
Suddenly, she hugged Su Chen.
Su Chen’s mind surged, yet as if struck by lightning, he lost all strength. He lowered his voice, "What’s the matter with you?"
"Nothing, just suddenly afraid that you’ll leave me."
The Phoenix whispered with a sour tone. "Why weren’t we born in the same place? I want to follow you to the East, even if it’s all wandering. But after my brother’s departure, there’s no one left in the Cang family, and I can’t leave my parents behind..."
Hearing this, Su Chen also felt quite downhearted. Although the two had not reached the point of inseparability, the slight attachment was indeed alluring.
"So this is what you are worried about, I thought it was something big. Don’t worry, distance is not that significant a problem. As long as I grow quickly and gain the ability to fly, I can come see you often."
"But... I want to be with you forever, never to part..."
The Phoenix blushed, speaking in a voice like a mosquito.
Just as Su Chen was about to make a playful remark, suddenly his face changed, and he shouted, "Who? Since you’re here, there’s no need to hide sneakily in the back!"
"Young brother, great skill, even in the midst of romance, you could still notice such subtle energy fluctuations."
