Chapter 195: Breakthrough Together

Lin Xu sighed at these words, saying, “We’ll have to think of another way. The temperature shouldn’t rise too high today. If necessary, evacuate the people of the Magic City overnight.”

Chu Han, weakly, replied, “It seems that’s our only option.”

…

In the cultivation room, Ye Xuan silently thought, “System, use the two major cultivation progress cards!”

“Congratulations, host. Your ability development has increased to thirty percent, obtaining the Xuanwu Divine Form.”

Upon hearing this system prompt, Ye Xuan’s eyes also showed a hint of satisfaction. Among the nine major divine forms, the difference in strength was not significant.

However, in the initial stages, the wider the span of awakened divine abilities, the better, as it would be more effective against different opponents.

For example, among the nine major divine forms, there were the Vermilion Bird and Phoenix, both bird-related and associated with flames.

Although there were differences in abilities, the gap was not significant. If one awakened these two major divine forms in the early stages, there would be little difference.

Previously, Ye Xuan possessed the Kunpeng and Phoenix divine forms, one with great speed and destructive wings, and the other able to control immortal fire, burning all things. Now, awakening the Xuanwu divine form, defense was invincible, with three diverse abilities, making him quite versatile.

Of course, with the ability development reaching thirty percent, not only did Ye Xuan acquire the third major divine form, but his own strength, speed, defense, etc., also received comprehensive enhancements.

At present, Ye Xuan, with an ability development of thirty percent, was essentially equivalent to an S-class awakened individual with a development of around ninety percent.

In addition to the Sky Dominator Body being among the SS-class abilities, he was undoubtedly at the forefront. Therefore, Ye Xuan was now essentially on par with a City Defender class expert, like Lin Xu.

However, although they were at the same class, there was still a gap. Ye Xuan’s ability development was at thirty percent, while Lin Xu’s was around sixty percent. In a real fight, Ye Xuan was definitely not Lin Xu’s match.

All the advanced cultivation progress cards had been used up, and only one regular card remained. Ye Xuan’s ability development could not be rapidly increased in the short term.

He concluded this cultivation session, looking at Su Mengli. Over the past few days, Su Mengli had consumed most of the gains from the ruins, rapidly increasing her ability development.

At this moment, Su Mengli was crossing the threshold of ten percent, as fiery red lotus shadows appeared all around her.

The shadows that originally surrounded Su Mengli’s body were slowly rotating.

With Su Mengli’s ability enhancement, the fiery red lotus shadow gradually shrank, solidifying in texture.

After several tens of seconds, the fiery red lotus shadow transformed into a substantial red lotus flower.

Su Mengli sat at the center of this red lotus flower, looking majestic and grand.

This was the change that occurred when Su Mengli’s ability reached ten percent. The fiery red lotus materialized, resembling a magical tool that could lift Su Mengli’s body and allow her to fly at will.

Moreover, the materialized fiery red lotus could be directly used for attacking others, significantly increasing its lethality compared to before.

After completing the cultivation, Su Mengli opened her beautiful eyes.

She looked at Ye Xuan and said, “My ability development has broken through to ten percent!”

Ye Xuan smiled and asked, “How do you feel?”

Su Mengli replied with a smile, “I feel great, why do you ask?”

Ye Xuan said, “Nothing.”

Internally, he thought, “System, you said Su Mengli’s remnant soul would appear. Where is it?”

The system replied, “Currently, Su Mengli is in a clear state of mind. The Empress’s remnant soul cannot return and requires a state of sleep.”

Ye Xuan breathed a sigh of relief and then said, “It seems like the temperature is rising again. It looks like Chu Han can’t hold on any longer. It’s our turn to step in.”

Su Mengli looked worried and asked, “If Chu Han can’t handle it, can we really do it?”

Ye Xuan explained, “We don’t necessarily have to defeat that little sun. We just need to lure it away from the Magic City.”

Su Mengli nodded, and the two of them held hands, leaving the cultivation room.

“Dean, Chu Han probably can’t hold on anymore, so Mengli and I want to try to lure away that little sun. Can we?” Ye Xuan said to the two seniors.

Lin Xu furrowed his brow and said, “Lure it away? What makes you think you can lure it away? And even if you can, what then? If you can lure it away, it means its target is the two of you. Won’t you be in danger then? Both of you are the top geniuses of China and must not be in danger!”

Ye Xuan looked at Lin Xu and said, “The temperature in the Magic City is constantly rising. If we can lure away the Three-Legged Golden Crow, then you seniors just need to find a way to protect Mengli and me. But if the Golden Crow doesn’t leave, over two million people in the Magic City will have to evacuate. What do you think we should choose?”

Lin Xu fell silent for a moment, patted Ye Xuan’s shoulder, and said, “Protecting yourselves is the most important.”

Ye Xuan smiled and said, “Don’t worry, Mengli and I will be fine. During this time, we have digested most of the gains from the ruins, and our strength has improved significantly. We’re not that fragile.”

Then, Su Mengli’s mind moved, and a red lotus appeared out of thin air. Ye Xuan and Su Mengli sat on this red lotus.

“Dean Lin, Senior Chu Han, we’re off,” Su Mengli said to the two seniors.

At this moment, Chu Han sat on the steps, supporting his waist, and weakly said, “Be sure to stay safe and protect yourselves.”

Su Mengli acknowledged, and the fiery red lotus, defying gravity, carried Ye Xuan and Su Mengli, flying towards the distance.
