As Ling Li spoke, the air around them thickened with potential, excitent sparking in the pit of each stomach. They were no longer just friends eating and chatting. They were on the cusp of transformation, the thrill of discovery poised at the edge of their reality. Ling Li’s words hung like a promise, echoing in their minds as they began to imagine the power that awaited them.
"Mom, you have reached the peak level, right?" Ren asked, his eyes wide with admiration as he gazed up at Ling Li, his heart racing with curiosity.
"Yes, Mom has attained the pinnacle of the ’Exalt Realm.’ People even refer to it as ’Divinity’ or the ’Divine Realm,’" Shi Min replied with a warm smile, his voice resonating with both pride and humility. "I’m still in the early stages of my journey of Exalt Realm, but Mushu and Pharsa have progressed into the middle of the Heavenly Realm, while Rockie and Reginald are just a few steps away from the King’s Realm."
Shi Min stood beside them, his expression thoughtful. "It’s like climbing an ever-taller mountain. Each level requires more focus, more strength, and more sacrifice."
"But Mom," Lily interjected, her youthful enthusiasm bubbling over, "I’ve read that those who reach the sixth level can fly! Can you and Shi Min fly?" Her eyes sparkled with awe, trembling with the possibility that her mother could possess such incredible abilities.
A knowing chuckle escaped Shi Min’s lips. "Since when did you beco so smart, Lily? Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if you outsmarted all of us one day."
Four Eye’s brows furrowed slightly. "What do you an by hiding your real aura?" Four Eyes asked, looking at Ling Li with newfound curiosity as he furrowed his brow.
"We need to conceal our auras for protection. If we reveal our true capabilities, we will beco targets for those looking for power or revenge. It’s a ga of shadows and whispers," Ling Li explained, the depth of her experience evident in her tone.
"Mom, please! Show us your real auras! I can’t believe you’ve reached the peak of the ’Exalt Realm.’ I want to see it!" Lily’s voice trembled with excitent, her heart racing at the prospect of witnessing true power firsthand.
Ling Li glanced at Shi Min, Mushu, and Pharsa, her eyes filled with excitent and a hint of mischief. "Alright, to inspire everyone, let’s show them our true forms," she said, her resolve firm.
In an instant, the air around them thickened, and a sudden rush of energy surged forth as their auras transford. Shi Min, who appeared as a modest young man next door just monts ago, now exuded an aura of raw power. His muscles bulged, each sinew pronounced as he took a more powerful stance. Even his suit seed to strain against his newfound might as if the fabric itself were rebelling against his vigor.
Mushu, too, emanated a palpable aura of intent to kill, his eyes gleaming with fierce determination. Beside him, Pharsa matched his intensity, both seeming almost primal in their presence, eyes sharp as blades.
As for Ling Li, she transford into a vision of ethereal beauty. A halo of light surrounded her, illuminating her features as if she were a celestial being. Her skin glowed softly, presenting a surreal contrast to the fierce auras of the others. It was as if she had transcended humanity, becoming a goddess in the eyes of her captivated audience.
The gathering was silent, wordlessly absorbing the magnificent display before them. Even the wind seed to hush, bowing in deference to their power.
Ling Li gracefully lifted Four Eyes by the waist, and in a heartbeat, they were floating above the ground. Shi Min, Mushu, and Pharsa soared high beside them, their spirits afla with joy and liberation.
"Shun! Can you believe they can really fly?" Ren exclaid, her voice barely containing her astonishnt.
Lily’s heart sank with a playful pout. "Brother, why don’t you take with you to fly?"
"Brat!" Shi Min laughed heartily as he landed with a thud, his feet gently compressing the earth below.
Four Eyes, still entranced by the sensation of flight, glanced at Ling Li, a mixture of disbelief and happiness etched across his face. Ling Li leaned down to plant a soft kiss on his cheek, a blend of affection and pride shining in her eyes. Then, just as suddenly as they ascended, they descended gracefully back to the ground, their auras once again concealed like a secret whispered into the night.
"The Heavenly Realm, the sixth level, grants the ability to fly," Ling Li clarified, her voice steady. "But it requires imnse dedication and ti to achieve. Patience is as critical as strength. Not everyone has the innate talent to break through to this level."
Lily’s eyes glead with wonder. "Mom, you’re extraordinary!" she gasped, her voice thick with emotion.
Ling Li smiled softly, a hint of a bittersweet smile crossing her lips. "You think I am amazing because I’ve reached the highest realm. But there’s soone whose power is beyond my comprehension, Otako. Otako’s capabilities and mastery exceed even my own."
"How could that be?" Ren voiced the question that lingered in the air.
"Otako has trained in multiple forms of martial arts, honing each skill to perfection. The more dedication you invest in your cultivation, the greater the chances of breaking through the realms," Ling Li explained, her tone both authoritative and nurturing.
"You’ve got less than two weeks for training and still much to learn. Tonight, you need to soak in the solution to strengthen your injuries," Ling Li said, her voice taking a more serious turn. "And read the book I gave you. The foundation of any martial artist’s journey is vital. It’s not rely about speed; the solidity of your base will determine your future achievents."
Ling Li glanced around at the eager faces surrounding her, determination igniting their spirits. "Every breakthrough will bring boundless growth. Once you grasp the fundantals, cultivate diligently."
Pharsa and Mushu exchanged determined looks. "We’ll help Murphy and Quan Ye," they declared in unison, the fire of ambition igniting their hearts.
Shi Min turned to Shun and Ren, giving them a confident smile. "Let’s get to work, you two. Just let us know when you’re done reading."
