Chapter 395 Without A Warning!
Nearly two weeks flew by quickly. During this time, other than eating the food that had been placed in front of his doorstep and sleeping for the least amount of time necessary every day, Virus was extremely persistent in his cultivation.
And today, at last, like a thunderbolt, his eyelids fluttered open. "Hmm, the unition rate between my first pair of Yin and Yang pathways ended up only around 30 percent after two weeks of diligent cultivation. Although this is still quite fast for normal cultivators, to me, it"s quite the opposite."
"It seems I would need to make some stuff that would hasten the process. But today"s the day of Guardian Examination, so I leave it for later." Having concluded this, he didn"t hesitate to pick up his phone as he called both the CEO and the Island ugly as he commanded the two to find him some crucial materials.
"I wonder if Lil Belle was successful in breaking through to Energy Disentanglement stage." A broad smile was displaying itself on Virus" face at this point. He was indeed looking forward to hearing all about the golden beauty"s progress now.
…
TWO WEEKS AGO
As the golden beauty returned to her own personal room which was right beside her master"s suite, she didn"t hesitate to walk before her queen-sized bed before sitting on it cross-legged.
Next, prior to actually beginning, the golden beauty picked up many mini Virus dolls as she surrounded herself with them. It was only then that she closed both her eyes as she started her cultivation session.
…
Three days later.
Presently, the golden beauty"s forehead was filled with perspiration as she continued persevering. She was clearly so tired that she was feeling the utmost limits of her tolerance at the moment. Still, she wasn"t one to give up easily.
"I"m almost there!"
Crack~
The instant that notion was just flickered in her head, within the interior of her physique, a cracking sound resounded. It was also in that very second when she felt as if an unbreakable wall that had been keeping her from progressing any further had been finally shattered!
And then, she naturally began to sense the motes of energy within herself!
"Eh?" However, it was what she sensed afterward which dumfounded her a great deal.
"Am I hallucinating perhaps? How could this be?"
The word "disbelief" could no longer even begin to describe what she was experiencing right now.
"Perhaps I"m not sensing the entire interior of my body? Yes… that must be!"
And she was feeling this way, because, examining the interior of her own body, her eyes were witnessing something which simply did not make any sense to her. No sense at all!
"Didn"t master say even the most normal human beings possess twelve energy pathways?"
"But then… why?"
"Why am I sensing only nine pathways within my body? This isn"t right!" In the meantime, she was panicking a lot already since she didn"t understand why she had a fewer number of Energy Pathways than even a normal human being.
Subsequently, she tried convincing herself that maybe since she had just broken through to the first level of Energy Disentanglement, just maybe she couldn"t feel the entirety of her energy pathways due to that reason. But deep down, without a shadow of a doubt, she was quite certain that anyone would be able to at least count the number of his or her own pathways from the moment that person breaks through to the Energy Disentanglement stage!
And that"s why this illogical piece of news came as a big shock and even a hard blow to her.
Not that she was expecting to awaken a full set of eighteen energy pathways like her master, but at least she was hoping to possess the most common twelve pathways which even the most normal humans had!
"W-what should I do? Would Master be disappointed in me?" As her eyelids fluttered open, it was clear she was very worried that Virus might get greatly disappointed in her.
Still, after a while of fidgeting, finally being successful in briefly calming herself, she decided. "It doesn"t matter if I have nine pathways or twelve pathways. Regardless, I"ll get a lot stronger and be of great help to Master one day! I swear on it!"
Following that, as if she had been at last triumphant in convincing herself, shutting both her eyes, she could only proceed with her training. Her goal now was to break through to the 2nd level of Energy Disentanglement in one go!
Just like that, soon, every ounce of internal energy within her 1st pathway were concentrated on the very first knot blocking her path of progress.
If Virus was currently able to witness that knot within her, however, he would"ve been definitely amazed at how slack and loose the knot obstructing her 1st pathway was! Next, he would have definitely concluded untwisting that kind of entanglement was sure to be extremely easy and time-efficient.
…
In the blink of an eye, an entire week was gone.
Right now, the golden beauty who had been diligently focusing her internal energy on the knot blocking her path for the past week had a mesmerizing grin drawn on her face.
This was because after checking the current condition of the twist, it was clear to her that the twist would be gone at any seconds now.
And indeed, half an hour later, the twist was disentangled at last as a smooth path revealed itself in front of her!
Noticing this, grinning from ear to ear, without any delay whatsoever, the golden beauty pushed every drop of energy within her 1st pathway to the 2nd!
As a result, she obviously entered the 2nd level of Energy Disentanglement!
Yet, just as she was about to open her eyes and celebrate her breakthrough, something strange happened. Something which forced her to shudder in confusion again.
Hua~ Hua~…
Within her physique, just as she entered the 2nd level of Energy Disentanglement, the internal energy within her seemed to begin bubbling and churning as it started to shoot up and go through a qualitative change without a single warning!
