Beginning Of Multiverse Saga-Chapter 492: Sigh, I’m Really About To Be Ruined From This Plowing
After an unknown amount of time had passed, the messy ki inside of Sharky finally calmed down.
Diana was already so tired that fine sweat was dripping down her face. She thought that if she hadn’t been a grandmaster with a special constitution, and if she hadn’t been proficient in the Holy Sect’s different secret skills, thus making her body far more durable and flexible than normal female cultivators, how could she possibly have endured all of this?
The entire process was more than ten times harder than her own breakthrough at the essence form stage.
Sharky also gradually recovered his mental clarity. When he recalled his earlier hot-headedness, he was also a bit apologetic. He was about to apologize when his expression suddenly changed and he said, "I feel as if my cultivation can still climb higher."
With Diana’s hard work clearing up his meridians, Sharky’s ki became much calmer. At the same time, the inner demon also gradually came under control.
When he saw the traces on Diana’s body, Sharky felt a sense of pity. He wanted to properly console her. However, his energy suddenly became restless again. His expression changed. He quickly asked Diana about it.
"You’re still not done?" Diana exclaimed, her expression changing. Even though she was a world-famous demoness, she wasn’t that different from a young noble virgin in terms of ’that’.
She had needed to rely on her grandmaster constitution to endure, and thought that phase had finally ended. How could she have predicted that it was just the beginning?
Sharky cried bitterly, "I previously absorbed all of Sir Fu’s cultivation. He was a grandmaster who was famous for many years, so you know how great his cultivation was. How could it be that easily digested?"
Diana knew about Sharky’s Heaven Devouring Sutra and felt that what he said made sense. If Sir Fu’s cultivation could only provide a single rank, he wouldn’t deserve to have been a grandmaster.
"You should focus on adjusting your condition now. Either way, your inner demon is now more or less dealt with," Diana said, biting her lip. Her once-domineering expression had given way to a mix of annoyance and playful pouting.
She tried to get up to leave afterward, but Sharky hugged her firmly and said, "I have no experience in this field! What if I end up experiencing cultivation deviation? That’s why I need big sis to help me."
Wouldn’t he be a dummy if he had such a great big sister but didn’t use her?
He had to admit that even though Diana was from the Devil Sect, she was the real deal in the field of cultivation.
When she was instructing Sharky earlier, they hadn’t wasted any time with detours. He had been able to break through into the essence form stage at the fastest possible rate.
Diana was a bit hesitant, but she also knew that what he said was true. Sir Fu had absorbed too many strong individuals’ blood and cultivation, making his ki muddled and volatile.
If she hadn’t purified all the ki once over for Sharky, he might have already experienced cultivation deviation. If she left him to his own devices and something happened, all of their efforts would have been for nothing.
"Alright then, I’ll help you this one time. But you’re not allowed to move around randomly!" Diana replied, staring at Sharky fiercely. Earlier, she’d had to help him with his inner demon while also enduring all of the outrages he committed. She didn’t want to go through that again.
"No problem!" Sharky immediately agreed.
"But that’s what you said last time too!" Diana replied with a skeptical expression.
"If you already knew I wouldn’t follow that, why are you still asking me?" Sharky asked with a big smile.
"Little Sharky, I’m going to bite you to death!" Diana snapped, baring her fangs, but in the end, she didn’t do anything.
---
After a long time passed, Diana felt as if the number of times she had rolled her eyes was far greater than in the first half of her life. It really was the way old stores always described it. Sometimes, one could go three years without much business, but after getting some, it would all come at the same time.
Thankfully, Sharky had recovered his intellect from his inner demon, so Diana didn’t have to work as hard as before. She was even able to calm herself down before examining his condition. Still, a blush covered her entire body.
Diana released a long sigh. After quite some time, her wet hair was left askew. She eventually said in a weak voice, "The hero stage is when the impure flame is created, and the essence stage is when the impure flame is at its strongest. It’s really easy to be possessed by an inner demon then, if you’re not careful. The core form stage is when the impure flame is fully under control.
"Currently, your cultivation has received a boost from Sir Fu’s lifetime of cultivation, which is why you’ve saved decades, or perhaps even more than a century compared to others. I didn’t expect your talent to be that high, that you could immediately control the impure flame. In the past, I forgot how many times I failed before I was able to just barely get it under control."
Sharky’s nose immediately pointed into the sky. He said with a smile, "All this was because big sis Diana taught me by example."
Diana’s face heated up a bit. Why does this phrase sound so strange today?
However, she suddenly remembered all the dregs of society back at the Devil Sect. Even though they didn’t dare to behave disrespectfully in front of her, they were really brazen in their private discussions. Once, when she was passing by, she had seen some people clutching their waists while saying ’only cows die from overwork; no fields are ruined from being plowed’.
So by now, those guys probably would have had their bodies worn out by women, because those men were no good, right...?
Still, she quickly tossed that thought out of her mind and said, "Honestly, you should be thanking me. I really wonder if I owed you a debt in my last life or something."
Sharky smiled and was about to reply when his expression changed again. He exclaimed, "Oh no, it seems as if it can still go higher!"
Diana’s eyes widened in disbelief. She didn’t say anything and struggled to leave. However, Sharky wrapped his arms around her again and said, "My dear big sis, help me one last time, please!"
"That’s what you said last time too!" Diana protested.
Sharky replied, "This is really the last time! Sir Fu’s cultivation is almost exhausted~"
Diana’s face turned red and white. Still, she knew this was an opportunity cultivators could only beg for. If she could help Sharky become a bit stronger, she had to do it.
Sigh, I’m really about to be ruined from this plowing...
After an unknown amount of time passed, Sharky finally calmed down. He sat up to meditate and adjust his cultivation.
Meanwhile, Diana instructed him, saying "I didn’t expect you to have covered that much distance, actually going from the hero form stage through the essence form stage, and all the way from the core form stage to the power soul stage! Even though you’re only at the early power soul stage, you’ve already reached a level that’s surpassed by none. From now on, you need to cultivate properly and find some treasures to nurture your heart. Then, you can truly reach the peak of the power soul stage."
Masters at the power soul stage didn’t have to rely on external forces anymore. They had powerful physical strength. It was the stage many people called the ’power to uproot mountains’ stage, so it was easy to imagine just how mighty it was.
This little monster Sharky has already had his body refined several times by the Primordial Origin Sutra. To a certain extent, his body is even a bit tougher than others at the power soul stage, even though he hasn’t finished it yet. So, once he reaches the peak of this level, his strength will climb drastically once more.
Diana’s face was rosy. Her earlier fatigue had already been completely swept away. In the end, that was all due to Sharky’s abundant ’essence’.
Sigh, I passed on knowledge to him, while he granted me liquid...
Her face turned red when she thought of that. As expected of the legendary transcendent aptitude! Not only had her hidden injuries been completely healed, her cultivation rank that had remained at a bottleneck for so long was also showing signs of a breakthrough.
I really want to haul this kid back with me to the Holy Sect to cultivate with me every day. Then, wouldn’t I be able to completely trample on that stone cold woman?
Still, she abandoned that tempting thought. Sharky had a brighter future. If he were really tied down now, she wouldn’t necessarily like such a man either.
Meanwhile, Sharky was digesting all of the knowledge Diana had passed onto him. He was suddenly startled, because he could feel a large diagram lighting up within his body.
And soon, all of the impurities were swallowed up by the Heaven Devouring Sutra.
Diana suddenly voiced her surprise. "Huh? What’s going on? Why do I feel as if your impure flame has disappeared? Wait, why can’t I sense your cultivation anymore? What happened? Did you become a normal person?"
Diana really was shocked. Previously, even though Sharky was mysterious, she had still been able to more or less tell what cultivation rank he was at. For a grandmaster, it would be strange if she couldn’t recognize the cultivation rank of someone at a lower rank than her.
But now, she couldn’t sense the slightest bit of ki from him. He didn’t even feel like a cultivator; he now seemed no different from an ordinary person... apart from being a bit more handsome.
There was no way his cultivation rank was higher than hers either. For those with higher cultivation than her, it was hard for her to see through them too, but she could at least sense the power coming from their bodies and know not to provoke them.
Did something happen when I was helping him before? Did I make his cultivation deviate and turn him into a cripple?
She was so scared she was about to cry when she thought of that. But I didn’t do anything wrong before!
This won’t do. I have to find Charlotte to take a look. Her daoist faction might know a bit more about these things.
She couldn’t waste time worrying about Charlotte finding out what had happened. All she wanted was to save Sharky as quickly as possible.
Sharky had a strange expression when he saw Diana’s nervous appearance. He grabbed her hand and said, "Big sis Diana, I’m probably okay."
"What do you mean you’re okay? I can’t even sense your cultivation anymore! Are you really no different from a pretty boy now?" Diana exclaimed, her voice shaking a bit. Even though she didn’t mind having a pretty boy like that, she still didn’t want Sharky to become a cripple.
"I really am okay," Sharky said. He thought for a bit, then realized that his words were a bit powerless. As such, he took out the Tai’e Sword and casually brandished it to one side. Blinding sword ki fired outward, causing a huge explosion.
When she saw a nearby mountain split apart, leaving behind a new valley, Diana blinked. It seemed that the whole process seemed to be beyond her grandmaster rank perception.
"You clearly don’t have any ki fluctuations coming from you though..." Diana muttered, unable to understand. Furthermore, she couldn’t sense the slightest bit of a cultivator’s energy when he attacked. Just what the heck was going on with this world?
"It might be because my cultivation method is a bit special, so it’s changed somehow..." Sharky trailed off, not knowing how to explain it either. However, he finally convinced her that he was fine and that he was now in the best possible condition.
