Alex only took a nap for around 30 minutes and he once again checked that whether or not Qingyue had got out from her cultivation, but as he had already anticipated, she had not.
'Sigh, the determination of this girl is truly commendable. I did not expect that even under such emotional turmoil, she could manage to cultivate this much.'
Alex had given her a bottle full of True Profound Pills in advance, as this place was full of profound energy, and with her talent, physique, and newly opened profound entrances, she should be able to breakthrough some minor realms at the very least.
Alex fortified the noise-canceling formation, such that the noise that he will be making now will not disturb Qingyue's cultivation.
Saying so, Alex moved out of the training area as a whole.
Alex had decided to practice his elemental manipulation skills now. He had already chose which element he would be practicing for now.
Thunder!
This element was not widely practiced by cultivators that much. Alex found this to be truly foolish as in the cultivation world, thunder was like a calorie that a cultivator must consume at least once in their lives.
While in this novel universe people did not have to go through a thunder tribulation for each and every major realm but they still had to go through the Thunder Tribulation once they reach the Divine Tribulation Realm.
Don't underestimate this thunder tribulation as in this realm, about 60 percent of the cultivators perish during this tribulation.
While cultivators did take many measures to successfully survive this tribulation but only the top few could actually survive this.
Even if practicing thunder arts did not provide any guarantee of them surviving the tribulation, it was still better than taking the thunder tribulation without any other methods. As if you have practiced thunder arts, you will know how to circulate the thunder in your body and you will be able to withstand the tribulation with minimum damage.
If your body is immune to the thunder then you might even be able to further progress in your cultivation.
Without any delay, Alex tried to use his innate ability that he had gotten alongside with the Shadow God's powers.
Alex then created thunder sparks in his finger tips and he succeeded. There were indeed small sparks on his hands.
Alex increased the output of energy into the thunder technique and the sparks started to become more and more violent and the sparks started to become bigger and bigger. Alex stopped adding more energy and only kept the supply required to maintain the current size of the sparks in his hands.
The sparks were already as big as the fingers of a normal human adult. Alex was not satisfied with just this.
Now, he tried to make the sparks move in a circular direction and it was difficult at first but within a few seconds the separated thunder sparks started to rotate.
With each spin, the separated thunder threads had started to merge, forming a sphere.
Alex looked at the ball of thunder and suddenly, an idea surged into his mind. He poured more and more energy into the ball of thunder.
The ball had started to increase in size but Alex concentrated and tried to stop the size from increasing and as the size stopped but energy was still gathering into this ball.
After a few seconds, Alex threw the ball around 100 meters from his location. And just as the ball landed the ball started to expand by many times . A dome of thunder had formed from the small ball Alex had thrown and loud thunder cracking sounds were coming from it.
A minute had passed by, yet the thunder sphere was still there. On the inside of the thunder dome, there were small thunder bolts. Do not underestimate these thunderbolts due to their size.
Each and every single one of these bolts were capable of turning a newly ascended Sky Profound Realm cultivator into ashes.
"I have only used half percent of my energy reserves and this happens. What would happen if I had poured some more energy into this attack?"
"I would rather not be the one to be standing on the inside of that thunder dome. This or basically, I will literally be cooking anyone who gets attacked by this attack of mine."
"Let's call it Thunder Dome. I can also control the size and damage by simply controlling the energy output."
"Moreover, during this attack, I did not loose a single extra ounce of energy rather than what was required to create the attack."
"Let's continue creating and improvising the elemental techniques and the energy control."
Two Months Later
Qingyue was sitting in the lotus position at the center of the Divine Origin Grade Energy Gathering formation. Alex had upgraded the Sovereign Grade Formation after he improved his energy control.
Right at this moment, Qingyue was having a breakthrough from the 3rd level of Spirit Profound Realm to the 4th level of Spirit Profound Realm. Alex had given her 100 Spirit Profound Realm Pills in advance.
Within a few minutes, she successfully broke through. Her eyes opened as she scanned her cultivation level and was extremely happy,
"I cannot believe that I have reached this realm in such a short amount of time! This is all thanks to my Alex. I am glad that I broke through today, after all, tomorrow is supposed to be the day we return to the Floating Cloud City!"
Qingyue stood up from the ground and started to move towards the outer area of the concealment formation where Alex usually was.
During these two months, Qingyue and Alex had gotten closer than ever. Despite everything she had done, Alex did not abandon her, rather he made her understand that since she had made a mistake, all she had to do was correct it.
She had been suffering from guilt even after several days, but due to what Alex had called as "Counselling Sessions", she had fully recovered.
Alex had also apologized to her for his own mistakes he had made when they had first met, which Qingyue had directly forgiven him for as at that time she was also planning to use Alex for her own benefits.
After sharing this time together, they had come to terms and accepted each other. Alex had even offered her to forget about the marriage contract he had asked her for and said that he would keep his word regardless of that now.
But, Qingyue had refused that as she had confessed to Alex that after spending this time with him, and feeling all the care he did for her, she wanted to continue feeling for her entire lifetime. Thus, the two of them were now mutually in a relationship without any other hidden reasons.
Qingyue soon came to the place where Alex was and saw Alex sitting in the lotus position with his eyes closed, obviously in meditation.
At this moment however, Alex opened his eyes and spoke very softly,
"System."
