September 1st was the start of the school year, so the Mountain Fire Saber journey of the trio had to co to an end—for now. But Du Yu and the others got exactly what they wanted.
Skilled techniques, a close-knit team, and an advancent in power tiers.
Especially with Du Yu breaking through to Demon Tar·Great Success, and Lin Shiwei advancing to Demon Tar·Minor Achievent, it was the perfect ending to this training camp.
Well... okay, maybe not totally perfect.
After all, Li ngnan couldn’t quite hitch a ride, even though Lin Shiwei and Du Yu had already "driven two cars" over and literally parked by the side of the road waiting for her—no matter what, Li ngnan just refused to get in!
Du Yu practically wished he could shove her into the trunk...
So what if her legs are long, can’t she just curl up for a bit?
Nobody really knew if Li ngnan was just being stubborn. According to her, it’d take her at most a week, or as little as three days, and she’d definitely reach the Minor Achievent Stage.
But one way or another, this was a car she’d have to drive herself.
For the whole team, Li ngnan was lagging just a bit behind, but in Lin Chuan’s eyes, these Paper Crane Disciples were already scarily strong.
It wasn’t just the Demon Tars advancing with a bang—their Demon Pets in the Acupoint Ho were getting plenty of nourishnt and growing at a wild pace, too.
If this keeps up, aren’t we going to see a Great Demon Tar in just a year?
The legendary era where "Gods road everywhere and demons were as common as dogs"—is that really coming?
As Lin Chuan pondered this, he led the three youngsters out of the underground training field.
The more he thought about it, the more unbelievable it seed. Those Thousand Paper Cranes scattered across Eastern Great Xia a few months ago—where on earth did they co from...?
"Shh..." As the Stone Gate in the underground corridor opened, Li ngnan’s teeth chattered, and she shivered uncontrollably.
A rush of cool air hit them head-on—it nearly froze her solid.
Lin Shiwei held Li ngnan by the shoulder, arm around her waist, stepped a bit to the side, shielding Li ngnan behind her.
But it didn’t help much. Everyone had to quicken their pace, racing out of the building—without the air conditioning, it finally got a bit better.
"Hah." Li ngnan took a deep breath, and the muggy air flooded into her lungs, making her feel just a little more comfortable.
The sky was still blazing red as ever.
Behind them, the Demon Spirit Realm was still dotted with charred Demonic Plants burning fiercely. At the mountaintop, the mighty Mountain Fire Saber still stood tall and proud.
Du Yu walked backward toward the street-side SUV, eyes flicking over the rooftops, gazing into the distance at that Fire Divine Weapon.
"Little Fen Yang, do you really think we can pull it out? The Blade Souls it summons are already so powerful..."
"Just work at it~" Little Fen Yang was optimistic. "Once you advance to Great Demon Tar and cultivate a Demon Soul, we’ll be able to actually communicate with it."
But the Mountain Fire Saber seems to have a pretty bad temper, huh? We’ll have to be careful when the ti cos."
Demon Soul?
For a Demon Beast, the Demon Soul is basically a second life.
For a Demon Tar, the Demon Soul is hugely useful too. One of its key functions is letting the Human Race connect closely with this world.
Any creature with spirituality—Demon Beast, Demonic Plant, or Demon Soldier—so long as the Human Race has the Demon Soul tool, they can communicate with it.
That’s why Great Demon Tars are considered the "stage of transformation from human to god."
Once you’re completely rged into the Demon Taming World, the world you see will be fundantally different from what ordinary people see.
"Can you still drive? Let take you guys back," Lin Chuan offered.
Lin Shiwei opened the car door and tossed Li ngnan into the backseat. "No need, bro. I just leveled up, I feel fine. If anything, these past two weeks I’ve made you put your cultivation on hold..."
Lin Chuan chuckled and interrupted, "You were training and I was cultivating Fire Demon Breath out in the field, so I wasn’t held up."
"Mm." There was a touch of gratitude in Lin Shiwei’s eyes. She grabbed Li ngnan’s ankle and shoved her further into the car before finally closing the door. "We’ll head back, then."
This group leader really is just like a dead dog...
Lin Chuan: "If you guys co back here next ti, just contact directly. I’ll be cultivating here for quite a while."
"Thanks, bro."
"See you, Brother Lin." Du Yu stowed the weapons in the trunk, waved courteously, and took his leave.
Lin Chuan lifted his chin a bit in farewell, watching as the car slowly disappeared into the distance, and let out a deep sigh.
Seriously, I need to pick up the pace on my own cultivation. After all, people call a genius. If these kids catch up to , it’d be pretty embarrassing.
While he mulled it over, Lin Chuan borrowed a phone from soone nearby and dialed a number.
After a few seconds, a woman’s cool voice answered, "Xiao Chuan?"
"Aunt Qing." Lin Chuan gazed at the car disappearing from view. "Little Shiwei and your disciple are on their way back."
"How did the special training go?"
Lin Chuan sighed softly. "In terms of cultivation, one broke through to Demon Tar·Great Success, one to Minor Achievent, and one’s close behind at Minor Achievent."
Yang Qingqing felt a trace of pride rise up in her heart. She didn’t even need to ask—she knew who was now Demon Tar·Great Success!
Lin Chuan said, "On the strength level, these three could totally take on a Mountain Fire Blade Soul."
When you contacted a week ago, they basically didn’t need my help anymore, and after that, I was even more free."
"Hehe~" Yang Qingqing chuckled lightly, "The kid really does have a lot of potential."
Hearing her genuinely happy laughter, Lin Chuan couldn’t help but mutter inwardly—Aunt Qing... you really do love your little disciple, huh?
Lin Chuan was also a Great Demon Tar, a living "god" in the eyes of ordinary people, but he had to admit: the gap between Great Demon Tars could be as wide as a chasm.
