NovelEnglishBook 7: Chapter 110: Flutter (3)
“This…” The Demon Sage paused, uncertain of how to respond. “… I don’t know much. As I said, I left her when she was just a toddler. Whatever man she fell in love with was a man she met when I was long gone. By the time I came back, he was also gone.”
“Just say what you know.” Dyon pressed, his eyes lacking any light to speak of. historical
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Um…” Sargeras coughed. If he wasn’t a spirit, he was certain that he’d be sweating buckets. “I really don’t know much about this man. When I asked those who had survived along with my daughter, they said they had never met him. In fact, she refused to talk about him even when I asked.”
“Then..”
“How did I find out? My daughter has an odd disorder… After the meridian formation realm, cultivators can stay awake without sleep practically indefinitely. Many only indulge in that act to calm themselves, relax or quickly recover drained mental energy, but it’s not strictly necessary.
“However, my little girl often falls into deep sleeps. According to her aids, it started when she turned 16. It never got worse, but it also never got better. It was during one of those fits of sleep that I heard her continually mumbling the words husband and lord husband.
“At first, I was very angry. Who dared to marry my daughter without permission? And who dared force my daughter to call them lord husband? If anything, my daughter should have a harem of her own!” The Demon Sage snorted, clearly very angry toward this long dead man he had never met.
Dyon’s body trembled, but he did his best to stand upright, did his best to pretend as though the demon sage’s words weren’t knifing through what remained of his psyche.
“You never tried to cure her?”
The Demon Sage awkwardly scratched the back of his head. “In truth, in her sleeping state, she’s safer than ever. When there’s no danger, she’d lie dormant. But, at the slightest hint of killing intent or if a threat to her life appeared, she would burst forth with strength even I’m fearful of.
“If I had to guess, it’s similar to a selfless state, one so deep that even the heavens bless her. Also, in her sleeping state, she also passively cultivates with a speed that puts me to shame.
“With the help of the Jafari Clan treasure, I was only shipped 150 or so years into the future, yet my little girl was already a middle dao formation expert!” He beamed proudly, looking on toward the beauty with fatherly affection in his eyes.
One had to remember that after entering the Timeless Library, upon exit, one could be teleported anywhere along the timeline whether that be the absolute first year of all existence, or the last year. For the Jafari Clan treasure to be able to narrow this near infinite time to 150 years… It was clear how heaven defying it was.
Still, this young woman’s cultivation speed was even more heaven defying!
What had the Dragon King said? He said it took him 300 years to enter the dao formation realm and 300 000 to become a half-step transcendent!
For this woman to not only become a dao formation expert, but to also reach the middle realm in just 150 years?! Genius wasn’t enough to describe her!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe gap between an early and middle dao formation expert was so large that it overshadowed the gap between a low celestial and a peak celestial by more than three to even five times over! It took even geniuses thousands of years to fill even a single meridian with enigmatic energy, yet this woman progressed so far so easily!
To put this into perspective, the Dragon King entered the dao formation realm at 300 years old. That then left him with about 300 000 years to make it to the absolute peak. That’s an average of 25 000 years per stage!
The low dao formation realm consists of the 1st to 3rd stage. The middle dao formation realm consisted of the 4th to 6th stage! If one were to convert, this woman did what the Dragon King would have needed 75 000 years to do, in just a few decades!
Of course, these measurements weren’t exact. It was easier to cultivate at the beginning and progressively got more difficult. Also, these 300 000 years included the time spent stuck at the peak dao formation realm, trying to break through to the half-step transcendent realm. However, this was impressive nonetheless!
“So, there’s really no need to cure her… I suspect she has an unknown constitution that allows her these boosts in her sleep –“
As they were speaking, the eyelashes of the beauty fluttered, causing Dyon’s heart to seize once more.
He wasn’t sure if he was ready… He wasn’t sure if he could face what it meant for this beauty to open her eyes…
How many years had it been? For him, it was just 90 or so years since he last saw that beautiful cascade of red hair… felt that air of a queen… his queen… 90 years since she had sacrificed her life for him…
However, for her, it had been several trillion years… Eras had risen and fallen… Clans had come and went…
Was she truly still his?… Was she still his Amphorae?…
