Chapter 28 - Cultivation

At this point, Zhao Dezhu stopped. Under Xu Ning's puzzled gaze…he scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "The last realm is the Heavenly Barrier Realm. But as for the specific division, Brother Xu, I'm really sorry. I'm not too sure either, but I've heard from the higher-ups that the almighty in the Heavenly Barrier Realm can mobilize the power of heaven and earth and is incomparably powerful. Of course, I've only heard about it. I really don't know if it's true or not."

After Xu Ning heard this, he nodded slightly and said, "It's nothing, I was just casually asking."

"Okay, Brother Xu, is there anything else you want to ask? If not, I'll take my leave first. The investigation bureau still has some matters to deal with."

"There's nothing else. Thank you, Brother Zhao, for bringing these over for me. It was also thanks to the two spell books you gave me last time that I was able to defeat that level-four demon. In the future, Brother Zhao, if you need my help with any of your missions, you can come and find me. I won't refuse if it's within my capabilities."

When Zhao Dezhu heard Xu Ning's words, his eyes instantly lit up. This was exactly what he wanted!

Even though his heart was flying with joy…however, Zhao Dezhu still maintained a calm smile on his face. "Since Brother Xu has already said so, then in the future, if I need your help with any troublesome matters, I'll have to trouble you, Brother Zhao."

Xu Ning was also a shrewd person. Not only had Zhao Dezhu helped him, but he would definitely need his information in the future. It would definitely be beneficial for him to take the initiative to befriend him.

"Sure, sure."

After chatting for a while more, Zhao Dezhu took his leave. Looking at his hurried back, there might really be something urgent.

Xu Ning sat on the sofa, thinking about the realm system that Zhao Dezhu had mentioned before, so he said, "System, I want to know what realm I'm in."

As soon as he finished speaking, the system's voice rang out.

[Ding, according to the cultivation system of this world, the host's current realm is the Mage Realm of the three realms of magic.]

Hearing this, Xu Ning nodded, thinking to himself that his realm was only at the Mage Realm. No wonder he was so weak that he could not even f*ck Aili.

If those genius disciples in the group heard this, they would probably doubt their lives, their Dao hearts would be shattered, and they would immediately run to hang themselves.

One had to know that only the older generation of the sect could reach the Mage Realm. Xu Ning, who was not even twenty years old, had only cultivated for a few days! He was already at the Mage Realm. If this news were to spread, it would make people vomit blood.

After asking about his cultivation level, Xu Ning opened the mahogany box that Zhao Dezhu had given him.

As soon as he opened it, a vast and majestic spiritual energy swept out. For a moment, the entire living room was filled with spiritual energy.

"What the f*ck! What's happening!?"

Looking at the snow-white ganoderma mushroom pills lying quietly in the mahogany box, a hint of shock flashed across Xu Ning's eyes.

Then, his face was filled with ecstasy. If he were to consume this ganoderma, his strength would definitely increase by a hundred percent.

"This Zhao Dezhu is really my lucky star. When I don't have any spells to deal with the demons, he would send me spells. When I need cultivation resources, he would send me resources. Hahaha."

Xu Ning picked up the snow ganoderma mushroom and could not help but laugh as he teased.

Immediately after, he thought about how even ordinary medicine could be strengthened. He did not know if the snow ganoderma mushroom would work. At this thought, he hurriedly asked, "System, can this spirit medicine be strengthened?"

"Yes."

The system's voice appeared.

[However, the host's points aren't enough to strengthen this spirit medicine. Moreover, the host's physical body is completely unable to absorb the strengthened spirit medicine. The system recommends that the host directly swallow this spirit medicine because this spirit medicine is just within the host's physical body's tolerance range.]

As expected of such an amazing system, it was able to give a suggestion while answering.

"Just within the tolerance range?"

Xu Ning glanced at the snow ganoderma mushroom and swallowed it without the slightest hesitation.

Just as it entered his stomach, Xu Ning felt a ball of flame emitting an intense high temperature in his stomach. This could not help but cause him to clench his teeth in pain.

"Ding! Detected a huge energy body in the host's body. The host is advised to immediately cultivate the Eternal Dragon Elephant Technique to absorb and refine it."

The system's notification came.

Xu Ning began to sit cross-legged on the sofa when he heard this. Wisps of hot air rose from his body. In just a short moment, all of Xu Ning's clothes were drenched in sweat.

However, Xu Ning did not have the time to care about these things at the moment. Even though it was very uncomfortable to wear wet clothes, he did not pay any attention to it.

It was because the flames in his body were burning more and more vigorously. His skin, which had become tender and white due to his cultivation, had now become as hot and red as a hot iron.

Looking inside his body, Xu Ning could clearly see streams of extremely pure spiritual energy flowing through his eight extraordinary meridians. The spiritual energy was like lava, and every inch of the spiritual energy that flowed through his meridians made Xu Ning tremble in pain.

Even though the pain was unbearable, Xu Ning had to clench his teeth and persevere. Under Xu Ning's control, the Eternal Dragon Elephant Technique quickly circulated. The Dragon Elephant that was curled up in its Dantian stood up, its eyes emitting a majestic golden light.

The Dragon Elephant raised its head to the sky and let out a long howl. In an instant, the boiling and violent spiritual energy in Xu Ning's body seemed to feel fear, and at this moment, it gradually became gentler...

While Xu Ning was busy cultivating, time flew by quickly. It was already evening.

The familiar figure came to Xu Ning's home again. When he first stepped in, Xu Ning's aura became unstable for a moment. Fortunately, he quickly controlled it.

"Huh?"

Sensing something strange, Aili's beautiful eyes focused. She found Xu Ning who was fully focused on cultivating.

"Looks like I came at a bad time."

Aili whispered softly and her figure disappeared. When she reappeared, she was already high up in the sky.

Her eyes passed through the layers of houses and finally landed on Xu Ning.

As soon as she stepped into the room, Aili sensed that Xu Ning was training, so she quietly retreated. The evil intent in her body was too strong. Just by overflowing, it could reduce the Yang Qi in Xu Ning's body, this was very fatal to Xu Ning, who was at the critical moment of training.

"His aura is getting stronger. It seems like he must have taken some high-level spiritual item to train."

Aili felt the aura on Xu Ning's body gradually increase. Her beautiful face was filled with both joy and bitterness.

She was happy that Xu Ning's strength could be improved again, greatly reducing the gap between the husband and wife, so that Aili would not be able to avoid it like she was doing now.

The bad news was that Xu Ning's training state probably would not stop for a few days. This also meant that Aili would not be able to find Xu Ning for the next few days. She would die of loneliness!

"Sigh..."

A moment later, Aili sighed softly. She took one last look at Xu Ning and left resentfully.

For the next few days, Xu Ning sat cross-legged on the sofa like a statue, unmoved by the wind and rain.
