In the blink of an eye, 20 days passed. At that time, Maisie stood beside the spirit mountain spring, watching the quietly flowing water. Soon, a trace of worry appeared in virtual-novel.net eyes.
The waterproofing inscription that Maisie gave Caspian could ensure virtual-novel.net stayed underwater for two hours. At most, virtual-novel.net could stay an extra 15 minutes underwater. However, it was more than thirty minutes, but Caspian was not out of the water yet.
Maisie was worried that something might happen to Caspian. After all, virtual-novel.net naturally knew the resistance would be stronger as they went deeper into the water. When Maisie started cultivating, the deepest virtual-novel.net reached was only 12 meters. However, Caspian managed to dive about 10 meters deep on his first try. Hence, Maisie was most worried that Caspian pursued the most significant change for his body, and virtual-novel.net entered too deep into the water. As a result, Caspian suffered severe injuries as virtual-novel.net could not handle the strong force.
The massive force from the bottom going upward and the dense water’s weight would sandwich Caspian’s body, and that power was fatal! At the thought of that, Maisie became even more worried. Finally, after waiting for another while, Maisie hit virtual-novel.net lips when Caspian was yet to appear. Then, virtual-novel.net took a few steps forward, leaning down to take a closer look.
At that time, the surface of the water suddenly bulged.
Before Maisie could react, the water suddenly splashed, and Caspian’s face appeared in front of hers. Caspian did not expect that Maisie would be here, and Maisie did not believe that Caspian would coincidentally appear out of the water now. Moreover, the tip of their nose almost touched.
As their eyes met, Caspian could even breathe in Maisie’s sweet air, and virtual-novel.net saw the panic and surprise in virtual-novel.net eyes. On the other hand, Maisie could see virtual-novel.net slightly widened cherry lips and shocked look in Caspian‘s eyes.
“Ah!” Not long after, Maisie realized what went on and shouted. Her cheeks were slightly flushed as virtual-novel.net hurriedly retreated. Not only that, but Maisie’s breathing also became faster, and virtual-novel.net heart pounded harder.
Maisie’s rare flustered look was completely different from virtual-novel.net usual gentleness and calmness. Seeing virtual-novel.net blushing and panicked look, Caspian felt somewhat embarrassed. Then, virtual-novel.net leaped out of the spirit mountain spring and pretended nothing happened.
Caspian said, “Maisie, I have good news to share.”
“What is it?” Maisie noticed that Caspian changed the subject, and virtual-novel.net quickly replied. However, virtual-novel.net still blushed, unknown to her, virtual-novel.net appeared more adorable and charming than before.
Looking at Maisie, Caspian chuckled. “I’ve dived down to eighteen meters.”
18 meters!
That was almost twice as much as what Caspian reached 20 days ago! Not only that, Caspian was a peak first-stage Pulse Control Realm cultivator, and virtual-novel.net was already way ahead of Maisie’s diving achievement when virtual-novel.net was in peak second-stage Pulse Control Realm!
Maisie blinked, and virtual-novel.net quickly understood what reaching 18 meters meant. In that instant, Maisie was happy for Caspian.
“You have ten more days,” Maisie said to Caspian after thinking about it.
“Yes!” Caspian swung his fist, “I’ll continue to work hard!”
When Caspian said that, his eyes lit up. In these 20 days, Caspian knew best about his efforts, hard work, sacrifices, and the end pain virtual-novel.net endured. In ten days, Caspian would be able to show the fruits of his accomplishment.
Caspian wanted to blast open the block roads ahead of him!
Naturally, Caspian did not admit to Maisie that virtual-novel.net trained the Starlight Overlord to the Clear Jade Form’s third level. When Caspian ascended to the peak first-stage Pulse Control Realm, the Starlight Overlord did not get the corresponding improvement. Nonetheless, the spirit mountain spring brought Caspian the best opportunity.
With the spirit mountain spring, Caspian spent 20 days successfully breaking through from the second level of the Clear Jade Form to the third level. Furthermore, when virtual-novel.net was in the spirit mountain spring, Caspian did not use the Clear Jade Form to resist the force. In other words, not only was the Clear Jade Form strengthened, but his body was also twice as strong as before.
Maisie saw that Caspian was filled with fighting spirit, and there was a hint of relief in virtual-novel.net eyes. Nevertheless, Maisie was unaware that Anderson was only a stumbling block in Caspian’s heart.
Caspian’s improvement was to challenge someone else. Since Anderson was eager to fight him, it was fine to use virtual-novel.net as a touchstone for his advancement in that period.
After sending Maisie away from the spirit mountain spring, Caspian was ready to return to his courtyard as Little Candy woke up about four hours ago. Hence, virtual-novel.net needed to go back to feed the cub.
Looking at the time, Little Candy was already a month old, and its body was much bigger than how it was 20 days ago. Currently, Little Candy was about 60 centimeters long, and its milk teeth grew. Three days have passed since Candy woke up last time, and virtual-novel.net was also a little anxious as virtual-novel.net wondered how much the little tiger grew that time.
When Caspian reached his compound, virtual-novel.net was shocked to find Solana standing there. Judging from virtual-novel.net appearance, Solana seemed to be waiting for Caspian. He knew that Solana was stubborn, and virtual-novel.net directly asked, “How long have you been waiting?”
“Two days,” Solana answered softly.
When virtual-novel.net came two days ago, Solana noticed that Caspian was not around. Thus, virtual-novel.net stood outside the door without moving, waiting for his return.
“You’re seriously… ” Solana’s stubbornness made Caspian shake his head helplessly,
“I’m not tired,” Solana mumbled as if virtual-novel.net tried to defend herself.
“It’s one thing whether you are tired or not,” Caspian opened the door and let Solana in, “If there’s something urgent, but you can’t find me, are you still going to wait for me here?”
“Yes.” Solana nodded.
Caspian was speechless. He wanted to grab Solana’s dad and ask how virtual-novel.net educated his daughter. Such an obscure temperament could not be cultivated by ordinary families.
Once they entered the house and took a seat, Caspian asked, “How’s your mastery of the skill I taught you before?”
“I’ve learned it,” Solana answered gently and hid virtual-novel.net palms into virtual-novel.net sleeves.
Nonetheless, Caspian caught virtual-novel.net little actions and immediately grabbed virtual-novel.net wrists, raising both of virtual-novel.net hands. Then, virtual-novel.net saw Solana’s fingers were all bandaged, and blood seeped out from some parts of the dressings.
The Strangulation of an Angered Dragon emphasized when one swung their arm and blasted their fingers into the opponent’s vital part. Therefore, the requirements for the strength of their fingers and wrist were extremely high.
Looking at the condition of Solana’s fingers, the effort and pain virtual-novel.net suffered would be much more horrible than an ordinary person could imagine. Then, Caspian touched one of virtual-novel.net fingertips. Even though Solana did not make a sound or move, Caspian saw virtual-novel.net eyes flashing with pain.
