Chapter 142: Breaking Through To The Middle-Quantum Foundation Establishment Realm
He couldn't! He wouldn't allow himself to go lax on his cultivation after getting the system! In fact, gaining such a useful resource only further hardened his resolve to cultivate with as much pain as possible!
"..."
So, that is exactly what he did! He put down his two koalas and asked them to do whatever they wanted while he cultivated. Of course, both of them were extremely reluctant when asked to part ways with their favorite spots.
However, they took one look at the fierceness inside Azmond's eyes and decided to let him cultivate for now
Boundless and Emu began to play a few little games of chess while their human was doing his thing. Although Azmond couldn't begin to fathom how two such beings even had the brain capacity to play chess, he decided to leave such controversial topics for his future self.
Right now, the only thing on his mind was breaking through to the Middle-Quantum Foundation Establishment Realm!
...
Thousands of meters above a large, giant spiritual stone, a man with long, raven black hair and dazzling blue eyes was suspended in a meditative position. His hair blew all over the place as exorbitant amounts of crimson-colored Qi swarmed him like moths to a flame.
** Whoosh! **
The skies above the giant spiritual garden were literally on fire as the remnant Qi produced by Azmond's breakthrough streaked through the skies.
However, before those residue Qi elements could make contact with the ground below, he forcefully pulled all the Qi back up to him through the use of his 'Quantum Law'.
Such an action led to a splendiferous sight being formed due to all the convoluted Qi elements clashing, spiraling, falling, and congregating around Azmond's bloodied figurea figure that had more than just a few simple injuries inflicted upon him, as appendages were flying in every which direction.
However, those appendages recovered faster than his breakthrough could reduce them to ash!
"..." |...|
It left an ominous view for the two koalas sitting on the ground surface, playing chess.
** Plop! **
"Mhmu!?!" The squeaks of Emu resounded out, as little exclamation points made of slime popped up on its body when one of Azmond's legs fell from the sky and landed on the chess board.
"Mhmu!?!?" It exclaimed outward.
Emu seemed to be baffled by the current 'spectacle' occurring above it. It had never seen such insanity in its relatively short life!
Is this the type of crazy man it had decided to form an unbreakable bond with???
Such thoughts made the conflicted slime begin to question its previous resoluteness when it agreed to travel with Azmond
Boundless, noticing such inner turmoil, decided upon herself (like the benevolent woman she was) to alleviate the slime of its worries.
|Don't fret over the state of that idiot up there. He won't die over something as simple as a breakthrough!| She said with a haughty smile!
Completely and utterly missing what Emu was feeling! And she did so in flawless fashion, with conceit written all over her pretty face!
"... Mhmu"
It thinks that it was beginning to understand why its companion treated this 'larger' creature with such contempt
Meanwhile, in the midst of a tempest of crimson Qi bombarding the solemn figure of a lone man, the cracked voice of the half-dismembered man began to sound out in a mildly insane tone.
"My breakthroughs are ridiculously painful. But is this not what makes getting stronger so much fun?? Only when you experience pain can you truly appreciate happiness!
This pain only strengthens the way I feel about the lighter things in life." His slightly insane voice began to turn into something more indifferent as the pain he was going through began to subside.
It wasn't that the pain had disappeared; it was just that the man taking on such immense pain became more resistant to such 'small' amounts of it.
...
A few minutes passed as the man, with the left side of his body gone, sat in a lotus position with a bored look on his face.
His dull voice soon begins to resound as he gazes at all the swarming crimson-red Qi with a solemn expression.
"Is this Qi bombardment never going to end?" He asked through bloodied teeth.
However, no response ever came. The only thing presently giving him a 'response' was the Qi in the atmosphereall of its attention focused on him, as unrelentless amounts of Qi invaded and eviscerated his body from the inside out!
"Where is that guy who was messing with me the last time I was attempting to breakthrough? Is he not around anymore? I was really looking forward to using him as a whetstone to hone the level of my 'Boundless Restoration' skill.
But it looks like I'll not have that chance now." He said with a tinge of disappointment, followed by a dejected sigh.
His body stayed in that same place for another 3 days, fully enduring the brunt of all the pugnacious Qi within a five-thousand-mile radius!
When compared to the level of Qi that surrounded him when he broke through to the Early-Quantum Foundation Establishment Realm, the breakthrough from the Early-Quantum Foundation Establishment Realm to the Middle-Quantum Foundation Establishment Realm appeared to be a lot more enticing for the Qi of Asterion.
After a few more hours passed, he neared the very Zenith of his breakthrough point!
** Swirl! ** ** Slice! **
The Qi began to batter him even more vehemently, almost as if the very Qi that pervaded the planet of Asterion had a deep, unsettled vengeance with him!
** Whirl! ** ** Gurgle! **
The usual sounds of the Qi going through multiple intermittent transitions in and outside of him echoed out across the skies; however, something else entirely began to enter the ears of the bored Azmond...
** Gurgle! ** ** Gurgle!! ** ** BOOOooOOM!! "*
The unusual sounds only seemed to get louder as it looked like something was approaching?
