The Violet Rain Bird's pupils widened in shock at Adrian's display of power. It began to realize that choosing Adrian as its master might not have been a mistake, after all. With such immense strength, aligning with Adrian could prove beneficial for the bird."Come out now," Adrian said. "You're severely injured, and we need to find a safe place for you to recover. Try to shrink your body a bit."The Violet Rain Bird readily agreed. Given its injuries, remaining in its large form was unfavorable. Finding a safe spot to rest and regain its strength was essential."Understood, Master," the Violet Rain Bird replied, fully obeying Adrian's instructions.Without hesitation, they left the area. The recent commotion had likely disturbed the surrounding forest, and curious humans might soon arrive to investigate. In this secret realm, rare treasures and countless opportunities awaited those willing to seize them. The disturbances hinted at hidden possibilities, and exploration was the only
As time passed, the Violet Rain Bird recovered.Tyron took out a beast core and said, "Adrian, this is the core of the Ivy Electro Serpent. You injured it severely, and I only delivered the final blow. This belongs to you."He handed the core to Adrian without hesitation, even though it was the core of a peak Astral beast. Anyone else would have felt greedy at the sight of such a treasure as it could significantly enhance their power.Adrian's eyes widened in surprise. "Tyron, we both earned this together. I can't take it all for myself. That would be ungrateful and dishonorable. We should share its benefits, especially since the Violet Rain Bird still needs time to fully recover." He glanced at the Violet Rain Bird, noting its severe injuries and the long road ahead for its recovery.Tyron felt deeply moved by Adrian's words. Although the core was rightfully earned through Adrian's efforts, with Tyron only delivering the final blow, he recognized that Adrian could have finished of
"Tyron, let's skip the formalities. We should hurry and absorb this inner core so we can both grow stronger," Adrian said.They sat cross-legged with the beast's inner core floating between them. "Once we absorb it, we'll definitely become much stronger," Adrian added confidently.Tyron nodded, choosing not to say more. He knew that talking too much would only make him seem long-winded or overly dramatic. Following Adrian was clearly the wisest choice.As they began to absorb the core's power, a terrifying energy surged through their bodies, sending violent waves over their skin. Adrian was surrounded by azure and golden light, while Tyron was enveloped in a white glow. Although their radiance was different, it was evident that Adrian's strength was far greater, his entire being pulsing with immense power. Just one glance was enough to show who held the superior strength.Tyron sensed this and felt a wave of awe. However, he wasn’t jealous. He believed Adrian was meant to be this
"If Master continues cultivating like this, he might break through to the mid-Astral Stage in no time," the Violet Rain Bird exclaimed in shock.The bird was amazed that Adrian, who had only recently reached the early stage, was already on the verge of another breakthrough. Such rapid progress in such a short time seemed impossible for anyone but Adrian.The Violet Rain Bird's heart trembled as it sensed the frenzied expansion of Adrian’s power.Boom!Suddenly, a terrifying force erupted from Adrian's body, reverberating through the surroundings. The Violet Rain Bird was left speechless. Adrian’s power exceeded its understanding of what a genius could achieve. In contrast, Tyron was also absorbing power, but his aura was nowhere near as overwhelming as Adrian's.Adrian felt the intense waves of energy surging within him. A breakthrough was imminent, and he was in an excellent mood. His acupoints opened in a frenzy, and energy overflowed uncontrollably in his body, causing a mix of
Tyron and the Violet Rain Bird exchanged expressions of shock and awe, realizing just how terrifying Adrian had become. They could sense the tremors of his power building. While the Violet Rain Bird had suspected Adrian's potential, witnessing his overwhelming strength firsthand was truly astonishing.Half an hour passed, yet Adrian still hadn’t achieved his breakthrough. Concerned, Tyron remarked, “Is it possible that Adrian might fail to break through this time?”Hearing this, the Violet Rain Bird’s eyes sparkled with determination. “I’ll lend Master Adrian a helping hand.” Adrian's growth was beneficial for the Violet Rain Bird as well. If Adrian remained too weak, he could face dire consequences in the secret realm. This was the essence of their bond. The stronger Adrian became, the more secure the Violet Rain Bird felt by his side.Tyron was taken aback, never expecting the Violet Rain Bird to actively support Adrian. It seemed the creature had shifted from defiance to a will
When the Violet Rain Bird began to submit, Adrian felt a twinge of doubt. Although it had acknowledged him as its master, the notion of true recognition felt mystical. If the bird had hidden motives, he wouldn’t fully grasp its thoughts or exert true control over it.Forcing someone into submission often felt implausible. However, the bird's current actions convinced Adrian of its sincere loyalty, which reassured him. As these thoughts swirled in his mind, a surge of powerful energy coursed through his body.In the next moment, the energy surged fiercely within Adrian, forcefully opening his acupoints, leaving him both surprised and delighted."Rise!" he bellowed, and an overwhelming force erupted from him.Tyron and the bird's eyes widened in shock. They hadn’t expected Adrian's power to be so terrifying. It felt as though he had shattered the shackles that bound him, sending waves of astonishment through their minds. Adrian's strength had surpassed their understanding, filling th
Both Tyron and the Violet Rain Bird were stunned by Adrian's breakthrough. They had never expected him to reach such an impressive level of power."Adrian, you did it! I can't even begin to understand how," Tyron exclaimed, his eyes wide with shock. He found Adrian’s achievement remarkable, leaving him speechless. It was clear Adrian's talent was far beyond what most people could hope to achieve.Adrian, feeling the strength he had just gained, opened his eyes and smiled. But when he noticed the odd looks Tyron and the Violet Rain Bird were giving him, he was puzzled."Why are you staring at me like that? Is there something on my face?" Adrian asked.Tyron, still in disbelief, responded, "You don't seem human. Your talent is extraordinary. It's hard to understand how you possess such power. You're a genius!"I used to think I was just one step behind you, but now I see the gap between us is enormous. It's nearly impossible to reach your level."Adrian was caught off guard by this
"Master, the Phoenix Tree and Prism Stone you seek are likely deep within this secret realm, where terrifying beasts dwell. Are you still determined to go on?" the Violet Rain Bird asked worriedly."If you reach the Divine Stage, there might be a safe way out. But without that level, it's possible you'll enter and never return," the Violet Rain Bird added ominously.The bird’s warning reflected its awareness of the dangers lurking in the depths. Charging in recklessly could bring serious trouble.Adrian had already considered this. The Violet Rain Bird’s caution confirmed the presence of incredibly powerful creatures. Rushing in without preparation would be foolish, and Adrian hesitated, carefully weighing the risks. Charging forward blindly wasn’t in his nature.As Adrian deliberated, Tyron spoke up. "We could disguise our auras and blend in as beasts."Adrian raised an eyebrow. "Disguise our auras? Is that even feasible? Can you do that, Violet Rain Bird?"The Violet Rain Bird
