The Star Garden Number 10, where Chen Zilu resides, is right next to Star Garden Number 11.

Of course, White Dragon University is vast, and even neighboring buildings are several miles apart.

"Whizz!"

A streak of flowing light crossed the sky, swiftly descending into the Star Garden Number 10 area.

"Buzz!" Jiang Ye's mind moved, and his Martial Arts Will Perception radiated out.

The next moment, his expression tensed, and his body lunged forward.

Inside a villa in Star Garden Number 10.

Jiang Ye strode in and saw a girl in a white dress leaning on the sofa, her face pale, with traces of pain lingering on her exquisite, flawless cheeks.

Qiu Cang stood beside her.

"Teacher," Jiang Ye looked at Qiu Cang and asked, "What's wrong with senior sister?"

"She's breaking through to the Fifth Break." Qiu Cang said grimly, "She passed out."

"Passed out?" Jiang Ye's expression tensed.

Breaking through to the Fifth Break? Passed out?

"Did senior sister fail the breakthrough?" Jiang Ye asked hastily.

Breaking the Life Shackles is no joke.

If the breakthrough fails, there could be various repercussions, potentially even affecting her Martial Arts Foundation.

"She was lucky."

"From what I saw earlier, she should have succeeded." Qiu Cang shook his head, a trace of relief on his face.

"Then why did she pass out?" Jiang Ye asked in confusion.

He looked at the girl on the sofa, Chen Zilu, her eyes firmly shut, and without shoes, her fair and delicate feet resting on the floor, seemingly glowing in whiteness.

It seemed that she had sat on the sofa after finishing her cultivation.

"Breaking through to the Fifth Break entails great pain." Qiu Cang didn't elaborate.

Still, Jiang Ye grew even more puzzled.

Pain?

Chen Zilu usually experiences unimaginable pain during her cultivation, the one thing she shouldn't fear is pain, so why would she pass out?

"It might be due to damage to her Talent." Bai Gui's voice echoed in his mind, "Her Talent Avatar was destroyed, and her Divine Soul was damaged."

"This condition exacerbates the pain from God-devouring Syndrome."

"After all, God-devouring Syndrome targets the Divine Soul." Bai Gui explained.

"That's why, when she broke through to the Fifth Break, intense pain erupted." Bai Gui said.

Jiang Ye was stunned.

How intense must the pain be to make Chen Zilu pass out?

Martial Arts Will of the Fourth Break Martial Arts Master is unimaginably strong; even the pain of Lingchi wouldn't shake it a bit.

The pain that made her pass out must far exceed imagination.

"However."

"She has Extreme Sea Essence Liquid, which should theoretically reduce most of the pain." Bai Gui's voice was somewhat puzzled.

"Right." Jiang Ye realized.

Hadn't he given Chen Zilu eight bottles of Extreme Sea Essence Liquid?

It shouldn't have made her pass out, right?

Just at that moment.

"Swoosh~"

The girl's delicate eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes.

"You guys?" A hint of confusion flashed in Chen Zilu's eyes.

"Jiang Ye, you talk to her," Qiu Cang transmitted vocally.

"Okay." Jiang Ye nodded.

Qiu Cang's figure flickered and disappeared; seeing that Chen Zilu was alright, he felt reassured.

After Qiu Cang left.

"Senior sister." Jiang Ye looked at the girl on the sofa, "The few bottles of Extreme Sea Essence Liquid I gave you, have you used them all?"

He was speculating.

After two months, Chen Zilu might have consumed all those Extreme Sea Essence Liquid.

Which is why, during this breakthrough to the Fifth Break, there was no Extreme Sea Essence Liquid to use.

But just as Jiang Ye thought this.

"Extreme Sea Essence Liquid?"

"I haven't used them yet." Chen Zilu shook her head and waved her hand.

Clatter~ Clang! Clang!

Eight metal bottles fell onto the table.

"..." Jiang Ye was dumbfounded.

What?

Not a single bottle used?

What's going on?

"Senior sister." Jiang Ye frowned, "The breakthrough to the Fifth Break is such an important thing, why didn't you use the Extreme Sea Essence Liquid?"

"I was confident I'd succeed."

Chen Zilu said, "So I didn't use it."

"Then why did you pass out?" Jiang Ye said solemnly, "I almost thought you failed the breakthrough, Teacher Qiu even said you were lucky."

The repercussions of a failed breakthrough vary from person to person.

For others, it might only affect their Martial Arts Foundation.

But Chen Zilu? Her Divine Soul was already damaged; a failed breakthrough could threaten her life.

"Isn't it fine now?"

"I was sure of myself, so there was no need to waste the Extreme Sea Essence Liquid." Chen Zilu shook her head.

Her face was pale, with no sign of the momentum of a successful breakthrough, looking very weak.

"Reckless!" Jiang Ye couldn't help but frown, "Breaking through to the Fifth Break, how can you call it a waste? What were you thinking?"

"?"

"Who are you calling reckless?" Chen Zilu glared, "Who's disrespectful?"

"If this isn't reckless, then what is?" Jiang Ye's face darkened, "I gave you eight bottles of Extreme Sea Essence Liquid, and you didn't use a single one."

"Are you angry?" Chen Zilu looked at him.

"I just don't understand." Jiang Ye said solemnly, "Why wouldn't you use the things I gave you?"

Chen Zilu fell silent.

After a moment.

"I wanted to save more for you." The girl said softly.

"..."

Jiang Ye was taken aback.

He didn't expect her to answer like this.

Chen Zilu's cultivation was already extremely painful, and breaking through to the Fifth Break entailed unimaginable pain.

She would rather endure such pain than waste a single bottle of Extreme Sea Essence Liquid... just to save it for him?

Jiang Ye stood there, momentarily speechless.

After a while.

"Senior sister." Jiang Ye looked helplessly at the girl, "The things I gave you, why save them for me?"

"You have Original Talent." Chen Zilu looked up at him, "The Fourth Break will be very difficult, and the Extreme Sea Essence Liquid would help you more than it would help me."

Looking at the serious expression on the girl's delicate face.

Jiang Ye sighed helplessly, feeling all the frustration in his heart suddenly dissipate.

"See what this is?"

Jiang Ye flipped his palm, and a translucent metal bottle appeared, with Starlight Liquid gurgling inside.
