Chapter 2052 — Who Needs a Genius? It's Less Practical Than Having Wei Zhao Upgrade It
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
Before, when he and Han Jingyi weren't close, he couldn't very well meddle. But now that they were close, and she could work alchemy besides, Wei Zhao would have to keep an eye on her from now on—make absolutely sure she never fell for anyone's tricks.
Wei Zhao directly set the second layer of the Xuanyuan Dragon-Subduing Art into motion. By now he could circulate the second layer with ease. Though he had not yet reached the state of great perfection, restoring another's stamina and raising their cultivation was a trifling matter.
Besides, Wei Zhao wasn't aiming to push Han Jingyi all the way to the Earth Rank—peak late Profound Rank would be quite enough.
Han Jingyi was circulating the alchemist's auxiliary cultivation method when she suddenly felt a powerful current of energy—her own—surge from the pulse at her wrist into her body. A flicker of something strange flashed through her eyes, but there was no time to hesitate; she hastily and swiftly worked the method, drawing the energy into herself...
Early Yellow Rank—in no time at all, the stamina Han Jingyi had spent was replenished, and she was back to her former state!
The speed of it left her both astonished and delighted. So this was how fast one could recover one's strength!
But it didn't stop there. Han Jingyi's cultivation level kept climbing—peak early Yellow Rank, mid Yellow Rank, peak mid Yellow Rank... and in the blink of an eye she broke through to the Profound Rank!
When Han Jingyi broke through to the Profound Rank, there was not the slightest sense of a limit, no resistance at all—which struck Wei Zhao as odd. Before, whether he was raising the cultivation of Uncle Qing, or Wu Chengtian, Qiu Lingshan, Chen Yuxuan, and the others, breaking through a rank barrier had always been at least a little difficult. Not especially so, perhaps, but there was always some obstruction.
Yet with Han Jingyi no such obstruction occurred. He couldn't tell whether it was because of the second layer of the Xuanyuan Dragon-Subduing Art, or because Han Jingyi cultivated the alchemist's auxiliary method, which made advancing far easier than other cultivation methods...
So it was that, very quickly, Han Jingyi's cultivation broke through one level after another, past early Profound Rank, all the way to peak late Profound Rank!
The second layer of the Xuanyuan Dragon-Subduing Art raised another's cultivation far, far faster than the first. In barely more than an hour, Han Jingyi had become a formidable expert of peak late Profound Rank!
Granted, the title of expert was more name than substance—but the level was there for all to see.
"Wei Zhao-gege, Jingjing is really a peak late Profound Rank expert now? Truly?" Han Jingyi stared at Wei Zhao in disbelief. "Wei Zhao-gege, you're simply amazing—Jingjing adores you so! You turned Jingjing into a Profound Rank in an instant! Boo-hoo... Wei Zhao-gege is a genius, and Jingjing's a big dummy. Jingjing cultivated for so many days and only reached early Yellow Rank, and Wei Zhao-gege turned Jingjing into peak late Profound Rank in the blink of an eye!"
