Chapter 25 Clueless Zhang Henglong
“That’s unacceptable; I must accelerate the progress!”
Su Xiaobai made an immediate decision.
200 days—over six months. In the past, he wouldn’t have considered that to be a particularly long time. After all, his current pace was already far faster than any warrior in the outside world!
But now, the crisis was closing in.
An invisible sword seemed to hang over his head, threatening to fall at any moment. If he wasn’t careful, he might not even complete his cultivation method before a martial master came knocking at his door!
“Fortunately, I just sold a batch of beast materials and exchanged it for 3.8 million spirit coins. The Level 4 One-Click Cultivation Space costs 1.6 million—I’ve got enough!”
“System, upgrade the One-Click Cultivation feature!”
Su Xiaobai gave the order without hesitation.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
“Upgrade complete!”
With the system’s notification, the indicator at the top-right corner of the One-Click Cultivation Space changed from “x4” to “x8”!
Immediately, the shadow cultivation progress sped up to eight times its original rate!
“At this current speed, I’ll still need 100 days to complete the technique. I need to accelerate it even more!”
“Upgrading the One-Click Cultivation to Level 5 requires 3.2 million coins, but I only have 1.2 million left. That’s not enough. The Level 3 Auto-Hunting feature needs 3.6 million—completely out of the question. I’ll have to wait until the next wave of resources in a week!”
“As for the remaining 1.2 million, I’ll use it to enhance Auto-Practice!”
Su Xiaobai decisively invested all his remaining funds into upgrading the Auto-Practice feature.
This was not the time to save money.
The days spent waiting might just be the key to improving his strength. Any opportunity to advance needed to be seized immediately!
“Upgrade complete!”
As the system notification sounded again, the indicator for the Auto-Practice Space also changed from “x4” to “x8”!
With eight times the practice speed, Su Xiaobai’s current cultivation progress was now unimaginably fast!
What might take others years of grueling effort to achieve, Su Xiaobai could accomplish in just a few months—or even days!
“All set!”
“Now the only issue is finding a new temporary residence as soon as possible!”
Since the enemy had been able to track him to the villa, it was clear they had his address. Staying there any longer was unsafe. He needed to relocate to a secure spot until the day he could eliminate the Yuan family and finally lift this crisis!
“You’re a mid-level martial master. Killing a advanced warrior isn’t surprising.”
“No... Madman Drake wasn’t killed by me. He was killed by Guest Elder Su!”
Zhang Hengde’s words made Zhang Henglong abruptly lift his head, his eyes fixed intently on him.
The expression in his eyes was clear: How is that even possible?!
Zhang Hengde swallowed hard.
“What exactly happened?”
Zhang Henglong could no longer maintain his earlier composure.
After all, Su Xiaobai was only an advanced quasi-warrior.
Madman Drake was a genuine advanced warrior.
Although the gap between their levels seemed small, that single difference was as vast as heaven and earth!
Never before had an advanced quasi-warrior been heard of defeating a advanced warrior. The very idea was utterly absurd!
“Here’s what happened...”
Zhang Hengde recounted every detail of the incident in vivid clarity.
The more he spoke, the deeper Zhang Henglong’s shock grew.
When he heard that Su Xiaobai had unknowingly broken through to become a beginner warrior and even blocked Madman Drake’s poisoned needles, Zhang Henglong’s pupils shrank dramatically!
But that wasn’t all.
When Zhang Henglong learned that Su Xiaobai had fought Madman Drake in an alley and managed to hold his ground, despite being at a lower level, his body trembled involuntarily.
A beginner warrior versus a advanced warrior.
Even a single-level disparity would usually result in absolute domination.
Two levels of difference left no hope for victory.
Yet Su Xiaobai had defied all odds... it was inconceivable!
But the most astonishing revelation was still to come.
“What?!”
Zhang Henglong leapt from his chair, his advanced martial master aura bursting forth uncontrollably and throwing the entire study into disarray.
“You... you’re saying Guest Elder Su... has mastered an elemental cultivation technique?!”
