In the days that followed, Jiang Che noticed that Nangong Luo indeed did what she said she'd do. She trained even harder than before.
Every day, she was either in the Cyan Stone Pool absorbing Spiritual Qi or continuously practicing various Secret Techniques. Sometimes, to familiarize herself with the Nine Illusion Immortal Bell, she would keep activating it, manifesting illusions throughout the Peach Grove Valley.
The most frightening thing was that she hardly even looked at her communicator anymore.
Previously, even though Third Sister trained diligently, she still had to watch videos every day, claiming it was to relax.
Rumble~
Jiang Che, who was sleeping soundly in front of the Tai Chi Cave, was awakened by the booming noise.
Not far away, atop Nangong Luo's head hovered the Nine Illusion Immortal Bell, her whole body glowing with golden light, and behind her, a golden world emerged.
Endless rays of light swirled in the golden world, transforming into various phenomena, continuously bombarding the mountains ahead.
"Holy crap, here we go again! This Third Sister seems determined to exhaust her big brother to death!"
Forcibly awakened, Jiang Che squinted his eyes open, watching Nangong Luo who continued her relentless efforts with high spirits, feeling troubled and wishing he could just die.
The next moment, Jiang Che directly stretched out his tiger paws, holding his head, covering his tiger ears, trying to block out the noise.
His Third Sister truly does what she says; when she decides to train hard, she turns into a cultivation maniac.
Of course, Jiang Che saw this as a very good thing. After all, if her bound target didn't work hard, where would his tenfold feedback come from?
But he never expected there would be side effects to Third Sister's hard training.
Since it started, he hadn't had a good night's sleep, waking up every day to the "boom, boom" sounds.
If he weren't an extraordinary being and a mighty seventh-level powerhouse, Jiang Che honestly suspected he might die suddenly.
With tightly closed eyes, Jiang Che thought about entering dreamland again, but the persistent noise completely prevented him from sleeping.
"Forget it, forget it, I won't sleep."
Somewhat irritable, Jiang Che slowly stood up and glanced at Xiao Zi on the Bodhi Holy Tree.
If there was anything that comforted Jiang Che during this period of torment, it was that Xiao Zi was there to suffer with him.
Summoned early by Nangong Luo, Xiao Zi was standing on the trunk, breathing in Spiritual Qi weakly, with black-rimmed eyes, looking like he could sleep any moment.
Seeing Xiao Zi's miserable state, Jiang Che immediately felt much better. At least he wasn't being watched and wasn't forced to train early in the morning.
"Hang in there, Xiao Zi. Master has saved a lot of Spiritual Peaches for you! Once you break through, Master will reward you with the biggest one."
Jiang Che cheerfully encouraged Xiao Zi.
"Chirp~ Coo~"
Xiao Zi replied weakly, evidently not motivated by the promise of a Spiritual Peach to lift his spirits.
Feeling amused, Jiang Che didn't bother Xiao Zi anymore, otherwise, if Third Sister saw, she'd surely lecture him.
The gist would be scolding Jiang Che, who naturally has a Sacred Body and doesn't need to train, for leading the "Five Spirit Roots' cultivator" Xiao Zi astray.
Next, Jiang Che took out his communicator, lay down, and started checking the latest news of the Great Qin Empire.
Since Third Sister didn't check her communicator, Jiang Che couldn't rely on her to understand the outside world.
So Jiang Che simply took the communicator, and since Third Sister didn't have the time, the task of monitoring the Great Qin Empire would be up to him.
...
Time flows like water, ten days passed in the blink of an eye.
Fox Immortal Mountain.
Even though the renovation wasn't fully successful due to the Nine Illusion Immortal Bell being taken, with the spiritual essence of all things in Fox Immortal Mountain, the Spiritual Qi within it was still much denser than outside.
Deep in a dry cave, white light glowed, as though a light bulb was installed inside.
In the corner, in a nest built from various withered Spirit Grass, lay a beautiful four-tailed white fox. Eyes closed, she focused, rhythmically breathing in Spiritual Qi. Her fur, snowy white and smooth, emitted a dazzling white light.
At this moment, the aura of the Nine-tailed Fox visibly rose, with Spiritual Qi from all directions beginning to converge into the cave, indicating that the Nine-tailed Fox was about to break through.
Ever since that Celestial Thunder Tiger left, the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox had practiced like mad, determined to defeat the golden tiger and retrieve her Nine Illusion Immortal Bell.
With the dense Spiritual Qi and the abundant spirit mist in the mountains, the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox's cultivation level had been skyrocketing during this time, making her confident that defeating the golden tiger was a certainty.
Boom!
Suddenly, as if a booming sound rang in her ears, the Nine-tailed Fox's cultivation reached the late stage of the fourth level, her aura sharply increasing.
Tiger King Ridge
"Ding, bound target Nine-tailed Celestial Fox has broken through, congratulations host on receiving tenfold feedback!"
Jiang Che, who was watching videos on the communicator with Xiao Zi, felt ecstatic, "Looks like this little fox is really putting in the effort!"
He quickly put down the communicator and began to absorb the tenfold feedback from the Nine-tailed Fox.
Five days later, perseverant Nangong Luo finally broke through.
"Ding, bound target Nangong Luo has broken through, congratulations host on receiving tenfold feedback."
Jiang Che, who was watching Third Sister's breakthrough with joy in his eyes, nodded in satisfaction, "Not bad, not bad, it really is a game of catch-up between us!"
Soon after, Jiang Che immediately closed his eyes and began refining the spiritual power from the void, allowing his own cultivation to slowly grow.
Perhaps it was the harvest season lately, as three days later, Jiang Che received news of Second Brother's breakthrough.
"Ding, bound target Fang Yuan has broken through, congratulations host on receiving tenfold feedback!
In his sleep, Jiang Che slowly woke up hearing the system prompt, the corners of his mouth curving upwards.
"Second Brother never disappoints me."
Glancing at the peacefully sleeping Xiao Zi next to him, Jiang Che playfully gave him a pat on the backside.
Bang!
This whole time, only you, little guy, haven't contributed any feedback!
"Still sleeping, hurry up and get to training!"
"Coo!"
Shocked awake by the pain in his backside, Xiao Zi sprang forward.
Letting out a grumpy squawk, it was such a rare good sleep…
And under Jiang Che's imposing presence, Xiao Zi could only pitifully climb onto the nearby Bodhi Holy Tree and start absorbing Spiritual Qi.
Jiang Che nodded in satisfaction, "If you all don't work hard on your training, how can I be invincible?"
The next moment, Fang Yuan's tenfold feedback arrived, with a massive surge of spiritual power flooding into Jiang Che's body.
