1086: Terrifying Absorption Speed

Terrifying Absorption Speed

Xia Xibei's expression was grave, but she still led Qiao Yanjue to circulate his energy and digest the spiritual power.0

By the time the spirit stone fell from Qiao Yanjue's hand, it was already broken into pieces.

Even if Lu Xiaohang was here, he would definitely not recognize that this was the previous spirit stone.

This absorption speed was simply incredible!

Qiao Yanjue froze and looked at his smooth palm; there were no burn marks on it and no signs of being burned.

However, the spirit stone had crumbled.

What was this...

He looked at Xia Xibei with a dumbfounded expression, only to find that Xia Xibei's reaction was no better than his.

"Did you… Secretly cultivate before?" she couldn't help but ask.

"Secretly cultivate?" Qiao Yanjue blinked blankly, then shook his head. "No, just normal cultivation."

Back when the two of them were first together, Xia Xibei began to teach Qiao Yanjue to cultivate, and she also taught him a very simple set of cultivation techniques.

Qiao Yanjue was too busy and worked too hard, and his body was more or less uncomfortable.

Even though he would usually practice martial arts to exercise, no matter what he did, he could not catch up with the energy consumed.

Therefore, Xia Xibei taught him this simple cultivation method.

As long as he practiced it every day, his health would be better and he would have more energy to deal with other things.

Otherwise, if he was hollowed out by work every day, how could he have the energy to do anything else?

When Qiao Yanjue first started practicing this cultivation technique, he was doing quite well, making rapid progress, and was a student that his teacher liked.

Of course, he had a foundation in martial arts, which was why he was able to master what Xia Xibei taught him so quickly.

However, Xia Xibei didn't expect that he would react so wildly after being exposed to the spirit stones!

This absorption speed was simply terrifying!

Xia Xibei had always been treated as a supernatural being, but today, Qiao Yanjue's performance shattered her long-held pride!

She was not a supernatural being, Qiao Yanjue was!

It'd only been a few months since his cultivation and he had such a terrifying absorption speed, which simply made other people ashamed to live in the world!

This kind of demonic speed made Xia Xibei think of her own junior apprentice brother back then.

He was a few years older than her, and only began to cultivate in his teens, so he already started much later than her.

However, once he began to cultivate, he had sudden and rapid progress. Xia Xibei was jealous of his speed.

Xia Xibei had always been the object of envy of others.

However, the emergence of the junior apprentice made her realize that there were more powerful people than her in the world!

Fortunately, she was a generous person, and after adjusting her mindset, she continued to teach her junior apprentice to practice.

Afterward, the knowledge she taught her junior apprentice was quickly absorbed.

If not for her memories of another world, she might have been crushed to death by her junior apprentice and became his inferior.

Xia Xibei had never thought that she would be able to experience this terrible feeling of being suppressed all over again.

What was even more unexpected was that this person was Qiao Yanjue!

What had happened to him?!

Qiao Yanjue looked at Xia Xibei's vacant eyes and got a little anxious. 

"Are you okay?"

He studied her up and down as he hugged her, fearing that something had happened to her.

"I'm fine," Xia Xibei shook her head. "And you? Is everything okay? Huh? Why does it smell so bad!" 

A stench rushed straight to her nose, causing Xia Xibei to cover her nose and step back.

Her reaction caused Qiao Yanjue to freeze for a moment, and when he looked down and saw the black, smelly dirt on his body, he couldn't help but draw in a breath.

When did he get so dirty?
