409 Fist Cannon (1/2)
Leon began to frown in thought while his body was still glistening with sweat from his cultivation session.
”The first three stages of the [Black Turtle Heavenly Guard] technique required spirit, fire, lightning to temper my flesh subsequently. I was able to bypass these requirements by simply using pseudo-Grandmist Energy to cultivate.”
However, there was a big problem if he wanted to continue cultivating the [Black Turtle Heavenly Guard] technique.
”From the fourth stage and beyond, the requirements become more stringent. Great pseudo-Grandmist Energy alone will no longer be sufficient to practice this [Black Turtle Heavenly Guard] technique.”
Leon pondered.
”According to the [Black Turtle Heavenly Guard] technique, I will need the black turtle bloodline if I want to continue practicing the technique from the fourth stage onwards. There are seven stages to the [Black Turtle Heavenly Guard], and the fourth stage represents the start of the latter stages.”
”In the legends, Black Turtles were bolstered for their body's ultimate defense. It is impossible for mortals, let alone humans, to achieve this level of defense with True Grandmist Energy alone. If I want to practice this technique to the zenith and achieve god-level defense like the Black Turtle God Beast, I will need its bloodline… but, where the hell am I going to find myself some black turtle bloodline?”
This was a question he had no answers to. It was apparent that many of the god and devil heritage required their bloodline to practice.
”It is impossible for mortals to achieve Godhood without the bloodline of the Divinities? Is this the real problem that plague Divine Kings from breaking through to a higher realm? Is Divine King the peak of mortals?”
Leon frowned.
After a moment, he shook his head.
”I don't the strength of the gods and devils to take my revenge on the Divine Kings and traitors that played a part in my father's death. I just need to be stronger than they are!”
With the godly cultivation methods in his grasp, it would not be an impossible dream for him to become an existence stronger than the Divine Kings of the Divine Realm.
Furthermore, he had yet to explore the entirety of Planet Gaia, let alone the entire starfield as recorded on the star map engraved into his memory.
The possibility of other heritages from the primordial era of gods and devils still exists. Perhaps the Black Turtle God Beast's carcass was preserved and just lying hidden somewhere, waiting for him to find it!
”For now, I should return to the surface and check on Darlene.” Leon decided.
Leon stowed away the partially depleted supreme-grade spirit stone and dug his way back up to the surface. After reaching the surface, he used his earthen abilities to patch up the hole in the ground.
Shortly after, he shook his head when he noticed his new clothes drenched in sweat and slightly dirtied by the ground's soil.
'I should have taken them off before I started cultivating… Never mind, I'll just wash them and wear the other set I bought for now.' Leon inwardly decided.
”Hubby!”
Darlene's cry was suddenly heard. Shortly after, Leon felt a pair of soft mounds pressed against his back as Darlene leaped and clung onto his back like a cat.
After hearing some noise in the courtyard, she had gone out to check right away. She was surprised to see Leon climb out of a hole in the ground, but at the same time, she was overjoyed that nothing had happened to him.
It seems that it was a false alarm.
”What's wrong?”
Leon glanced over his shoulder with a smile before pinching her cheeks in teasing. Darlene pouted and said, ”What were you doing underground? I thought something happened to you?”
As Darlene said this, she subconsciously glances towards the broken doors. Leon understood her meaning and laughed it off nonchalantly with a smile oozing with confidence, ”What could happen to me?”
Darlene was slightly surprised.
She felt like her hubby had grown much stronger. Although nothing seemed to have changed, she was under this illusion that his body was faintly glowing with vigor.
Leon turned around and glanced down at Darlene's clothes before asking with a smile, ”How's the dress?”
”I love it! It fits perfectly! Thanks, hubby!
Darlene smooched him on the cheeks. Leon smiled lightly at her words. Of course, it would fit perfectly. He specifically selected her clothes based on her dimensions.
Nevertheless, Leon felt that something was missing and asked, ”Where's your Interspatial Pouch? You don't like to wear it on your body?”
”Ah? The Interspatial Pouch? Oh, right! I'll fetch it right now!”
Darlene pulled herself away from Leon before rushing into the bedroom. She took out the Interspatial Pouch from the drawers. After she emptied out the contents into the drawer, she ran back to Leon and passed him the Interspatial Pouch.
”Here you go!”
Leon accepted the pouch and glanced inside briefly before he looked back at Darlene and said, ”What do you mean by this, my little wifey? Where did the stuff inside go?”
