The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 1710 - 1709: Late Stage

"Am I about to break through, am I really about to break through?"He hadn't forgotten his other purpose for coming to East Island—to spar with the Second Son of Yan Family and stimulate his own breakthrough.

Unfortunately, the Second Son of Yan Family died before having a proper fight with Tang Rao, missing his chance for a duel. Originally, he thought he wouldn't have any opportunity, but just when he was about to leave, he discovered such a huge gift.

"Stop babbling. When you feel your meridians thickening and the pressure inside your body enhancing, you should calm down and wait for the breakthrough instead of telling me a bunch of nonsense."

Little Hedgehog suddenly assumed the role of Tang Rao's life mentor.

Although Tang Rao was annoyed by Little Hedgehog's attitude, he couldn't deny that Little Hedgehog indeed reminded him of what he should and shouldn't do at this moment.

The thickening of the meridians and the increasing tension within his body prompted Tang Rao to find a foothold and immediately sit down, shutting off his five senses, isolating himself from the world.

The further he progressed in the realms, the more cautious he became; late stage God level power was a realm Tang Rao dreamed of. Yes, no doubt about it, but cultivating isn't child's play; every step should be taken seriously and grounded. A slip could lead to going insane; at best, one would simply stagnate; at worst, all previous efforts would be wasted, rendering him a complete wreck henceforth.

The Immortal Energy within the mountain was extraordinarily dense, a rare Cave Heaven Blessed Land unseen for millennia; the compressed Immortal Energy was purer than what Tang Rao had in his portable palace.

He had long felt the restless power brewing within his body.

From the peak mid-stage of God level to late stage, he only took half an hour, and what surprised him most was, having believed ascending to the late stage God level would cause significant disturbances within the mountain, he had prepared to escape with the Divine Stone had the tremors been substantial once he broke through.

Yet the mountain contained more than just air and also water suitable for crafting level eight Elixir Pills, in addition to those Mother Stones.

Letting go of those waiting for the breakthrough seemed too great a loss.

Fortunately, shortly after his breakthrough, waiting a bit with no tremors or even slight ripples, his breakthrough seemed perfectly natural and deserved.

"What's so strange about it, superior Cave Heaven Blessed Lands have always had this effect. Your ignorance simply indicates narrow-mindedness."

Little Hedgehog had known it would be like this all along; it simply never said it.

As Little Hedgehog's master and its provider, Tang Rao wanted to rebuke Little Hedgehog a couple of times, but upon thinking it through, he realized its words bore some truth.

His insight was indeed lacking compared to Little Hedgehog.

"I admit I'm ignorant, isn't that enough? Then tell me, what should I do with all this? I want to take everything with me; find me a way."

As an animal with broader insight, it ought to have a good solution, right?

"There's nothing hard about it. Use your mind to transfer all these into your Little World, wouldn't that be enough?"

Did Tang Rao expect these words to stump Little Hedgehog?

"Now that you've reached the late stage God level, you can use your mind to shift an entire piece of land or a region's air. What's so strange about that?"

Why should Little Hedgehog be stared at with such a shocked look?

"How do I use my mind? I haven't tried before; you should teach me, after all, you're the most knowledgeable."

As a knowledgeable Little Hedgehog, teaching Tang Rao is no problem, but teaching doesn't yield any return, so what kind of teacher would that be?

"I want endless chocolates and instant noodles."

Everyone's a businessman; shouldn't doing a bit of trade be no issue?

"Then I revoke your access to the portable palace, you'll live here for life?"

Little Hedgehog was full of optimism that its wish would soon be fulfilled; unfortunately, with magic being powerful yet the Dao more profound, leaving this wretched place and returning to Tang Rao's portable palace seemed much more important than food.

"You're so stingy."

Little Hedgehog gave in to Tang Rao's dominance and taught him the Mind Transfer Technique.

He learned and applied it; the water and things under it, air inside the mountain, were all transferred to Little World by Tang Rao.

"This skill is nice, this is fun."

The further he went, the more abilities he discovered he possessed; before he could only transfer material objects, now even air could be transferred.

With the mountain's contents taken away, this space wouldn't last long; he must leave immediately or face being buried alive.

Whether those digging above with dreams of riches would survive this disaster, Tang Rao didn't know.

He only thought of taking Shu Yi with him upon exiting and offering some advice to Yang Zhi, who had shown interest in befriending Tang Rao since these two bore no grudges against him and were sincere people; should they die, Tang Rao would feel guilty.

The Divine Stone in his hand, he closed his eyes, thinking of Shu Yi's location, and once he opened his eyes again, Tang Rao had emerged from the mountain, with Shu Yi standing right beside him.

"Did you really go inside, what happened in there? After waiting so long, I thought you were in trouble."

Shu Yi's concern seemed genuine; in the unfamiliar place of East Island, a sudden warm current surged in his heart.

"Let's leave here first, we'll talk once we're back."

Now wasn't the time to talk, with emptiness below ready to collapse anytime, enough time must be left to notify Yang Zhi.

Shu Yi fully trusted Tang Rao, whatever Tang Rao said, he followed; and not probing what wasn't disclosed.

Upon Tang Rao finding Yang Zhi, he was resting under a tree, while those dreamers were already digging various sized holes before them, these holes being at least a hundred meters deep.

Walking to Yang Zhi, Tang Rao quietly spoke a couple of sentences, Yang Zhi, unsuspecting, followed Tang Rao down the mountain.

"Didn't you leave, why did you come back?"

Only upon reaching the bottom, Yang Zhi caught his breath and asked.

"Came up the mountain to save you."

He never hesitated to disclose all he knew.

"Hey, I say you kid, in less than an hour you managed to reach late stage God level from the peak mid-stage God level, huh?"

Yang Zhi was keen-eyed, immediately noticing the different aura Tang Rao carried compared to before.

"Reached late stage God level?"

Shu Yi was focused on following Tang Rao and hadn't noticed the change in him.

"The world changes in an instant; taking an hour to change isn't strange, right?"

This explanation by him was flawless; Yang Zhi and Shu Yi were both speechless.
