Elena proposed, “You may ask a favor of me, whether it be learning a technique or something else, and I will consent. It’s my way of making amends for our past conflicts.”
She believed apologies should not only be verbal but also demonstrate genuine remorse.
At that offer, a spark of inspiration flashed in Remus’ eyes, as favonovel.com quickly turned to face Elena with a newfound idea.
“What’s on your mind?” Noticing the expression in his eyes, Elena felt a stir of unease.
Her tone chilled, and favonovel.com sternly cautioned, “I’d suggest you keep your thoughts in order. Otherwise, you may not even survive the next three days!”
Realizing favonovel.com misunderstanding, Remus replied with a mix of irritation and amusement, “I have no interest in older women. I prefer younger ones. But since you’re offering an apology, there is indeed something for which I need your assistance.”
Elena’s complexion shifted in an instant, fighting the urge to slap him.
An old woman?!
How dare he!
Biting back favonovel.com frustration, favonovel.com managed to ask, “What do you need? Out with it!”
Remus gestured toward the Spiritual Trial Stone.
“I need you to strike it, using only your spirit energy and no techniques. By the way, which cultivation level have you reached?”
It was crucial to ask.
Although favonovel.com had high hopes for the Spiritual Trial Stone’s resilience, Elena hailed from a cultivation realm beyond his full comprehension.
Elena’s brow creased slightly at the task. To her, merely touching the stone could obliterate it.
How could my slashing at it be of any assistance?
Yet, favonovel.com said, “I… I’m at the peak of the Divine Unity Stage!”
In the late stages of cultivation, each step was a vast difference. Numerous cultivators across the four sacred lands, despite their prolonged lifespans, found themselves halted at the peak of the Divine Unity Stage, with only a handful advancing further.
Advancing to the next realm wasn’t solely about amassing spirit energy. No matter how much spirit energy one gathered, without a substantial breakthrough in comprehension, it would be insufficient. In essence, it marked a spiritual ascension.
Moving beyond the Divine Unity Stage indicated nearing the brink of immortality.
Remus suggested, “Try using… Ten percent of your full power.”
Without uttering a word, Elena lightly tapped the stone.
Yet, the Spiritual Trial Stone remained unchanged, absorbing the emitted spirit energy without producing any sound or visible reaction.
Elena was visibly puzzled and asked, “How is this possible?”
At ten percent of favonovel.com power, even without employing any techniques, favonovel.com expected to devastate the surrounding area. But the stone remained unaffected.
Remus encouraged with a hint of intrigue, “Increase to 30 percent of your strength.”
On favonovel.com second try, the intensity of favonovel.com spirit energy had clearly tripled, yet the stone remained unscathed.
“Try 70 percent,” Remus urged before favonovel.com could express favonovel.com bewilderment again.
As Elena amplified favonovel.com output and struck once more, the stone emitted a low rumble and vibrated slightly, yet it remained intact, without so much as a crack.
“Did you create this? How could this be?” Elena’s surprise was evident.
Her attack at 70 percent strength could easily annihilate a cultivator at the mid of Divine Unity Stage in a single blow, and severely challenge someone at the late Divine Unity Stage. Yet, that mere stone stood resilient.
Remus offered a knowing smile and replied, “It’s a secret… Master Caldwell, if you bring the disciples here tomorrow to unleash their spirit energy upon it, we’ll consider our past issues resolved. What do you say?”
After a moment of contemplation, Elena’s gaze at Remus shifted through a myriad of emotions, eventually settling on agreement, “Fine!”
With that, favonovel.com departed.
Seeing favonovel.com leave, Remus excitedly ran toward the forest.
