Light Cultivation
Eps. 203 — Strength Enhancement
Six months passed by Jian Chen studied the Sun Sword Technique now that his ability in the technique had already developed.
Jian Chen could use fire without using the fire element with his sword, this made him always amazed himself over the technique because arguably the fire element was the element that Jian Chen wanted if only fate could choose.
The one thing Jian Chen complained about when he was always training was his inner strength, despite reaching a thousand circles he could not practice one more day.
Master Jian Chen would not stop doing his training until the power within Jian Chen was completely exhausted, with a thousand inner power circles making him able to train for one day without rest.
If he had seven thousand inner power circles like in his previous life maybe Jian Chen could train for a week pul without the slightest pause.
Jian Chen was currently sitting cross-legged on a boulder to recover his deep strength that had been exhausted from practicing before.
He could have absorbed the stealth gems to recover faster just that Jian Chen's supply of gems had been depleted from using them continuously for the past six months.
On the same side the power capacity within Jian Chen had also increased tremendously, although it had yet to reach two thousand inner power circles he was arguably already near it.
In the vicinity of Jian Chen practicing, there were many grasses or trees that were burned by his practice, although it was not yet perfect that Jian Chen could let out a long-range fire with his sword.
Even so the fire Jian Chen let out was still weak, in contrast to his teacher who could emit hot flames from every swing of the sword.
"Chen'er, has your inner strength recovered?" Master Jian Chen was suddenly already nearby when the young man opened his eyes.
"Teacher!" Jian Chen was surprised to stroke his chest, afraid that his heart would stop completely.
Master Jian Chen chuckled slightly before asking for a similar thing back.
"I've only filled three hundred inner strength, Master, is there anything a student can help with?"
"Not that, I just want to take you somewhere far away from here. You'd better fill your inner energy up to five hundred within."
Jian Chen did not understand the intent of his teacher but he complied, a moment later his inner strength had already reached its intended destination.
"Well come with me somewhere, can't you fly Chen'er?"
Jian Chen nodded, his strength had indeed not matched the realm of the celestial Realm yet he could fly using his type change technique.
Master Jian Chen brought his disciple to the back of a hill, as his teacher's hut was in the middle of a forest very far from the settlement, neither of them had to worry when anyone else was looking.
Jian Chen landed on the back of the mountain after his teacher landed first, the two stopped in front of a cavern that was gaping as big as punching holes in the mountain.
"Chen'er, let's go first."
"Hm, what's the matter gu-..." Jian Chen said as he stepped forward when he suddenly seemed to be hit by something invisible in the mouth of the cave.
"This is a formation?" Jian Chen struck the barrier formation to confirm it.
"True, inside there was a pool of water of stealth gems, if you soak in there the amount of power capacity in you might increase like you're absorbing a stealth gem just that no one until now except Master can get into it."
"Teacher, why don't you break this formation?" Jian Chen asked in astonishment.
"Solving it is not a difficult matter, the problem lies in its content. The point is you'll know if you've gone inside..."
Jian Chen scratched his head, he chose to pay attention to the formation but after a while the formation in front of him was not as simple as Jian Chen saw.
"Forms made from sacrificing the lives of its users..." Jian Chen sighed, if the formation was this strong he could not do it either.
"Teacher how do you get inside?" Jian Chen was obviously curious because his teacher was able to enter while the formation was not broken.
"Of course, by going through it..." Master Jian Chen then stepped slowly into it. The formation of the place trembled for a moment when Master Jian Chen had his mammoth enter.
Jian Chen gulped, he could see his teacher forcefully tearing apart the barrier of the formation.
"We'd better not break this formation, Chen'er, there's something from the inside if an outsider knows a big problem is going to happen."
Jian Chen scratched his head, "Teacher, then what should I do?"
"You just use the power of the girl in your body, she has the element of space that can teleport."
Jian Chen was surprised, it seemed like his teacher had indeed known many things including Lily. That meant that his Master wanted Jian Chen to be possessed by Lily.
"I don't want to!" Lily had already snorted first before Jian Chen asked.
Jian Chen smiled awkwardly, he had already guessed this matter must have happened but looked at trying it out.
Jian Chen could have used forceful means by threatening Lily but the girl had already helped him several times so there was no way Jian Chen was evil to him.
"Hmm, tell you what, if you're going to get me into that cave, I'm going to give you one wish, whatever I'm going to do as long as you're still asking within my reach."
Lily stopped resisting, she narrowed her eyes at Jian Chen for a moment. "Why do you want to go there?"
"Of course to practice, let alone..."
Lily grunting. "Well, I can't bear to see you blaspheme like that. Now give me your hand."
Before Jian Chen understood Lily's intent, one of his hands suddenly moved on its own not following his orders. He swung it with a simple movement as soon as a room was torn.
"Go there!" Lily's orders after controlling Jian Chen's hand.
Jian Chen was surprised, only to find out that Lily could move her body without her consent. This makes him alert. Jian Chen then entered into the tear of the room, instantly he was already inside the cave.
"Not bad either, Chen'er, don't worry it seems like the creature already cares about you..."
"Huh? Who do you call caring? I don't care about this fucking young man?!" Lily who heard it actually shouted angrily from within which was certainly not heard by Master Jian Chen.
Lily's reaction signifies the opposite between her speech and her feelings.
