Chapter 225: 225: Breakthrough Failure

“You can’t kill him, and you can’t cripple him either. Otherwise, the consequences will be grave. Does it mean if your Aunt can’t deal with it, you will go to find your father?”

Without turning her head, Zhuang Huanling waved her hand: “Don’t worry, I would die before going to find that old man.”

“See you, Aunt! Enjoy your desserts!”

Looking at Zhuang Huanling’s retreating figure, Zhuang Yuling shook her head and chuckled.

“That child… But it’s not bad. The more she interacts with such talents, the better for her.’

“It’s rare to meet someone who can bully you.”

For the following several days, Jiang Xiaobai and AnRan moved around in this dense forest, occasionally meeting some daredevils who wanted to earn the bounty. Naturally, they all ended up dead.

Within a few days, no one dared to enter this forest anymore.

The majority of those who entered couldn’t leave alive. They all had decent skills, and with such a display of power, those wanderers naturally wouldn’t dare to break in without rhyme or reason.

Even with tempting bounty, you still need to stay alive to enjoy it.

The imminent opening of the Mad Demon Secret Land caught the attention of the Thousand Yuan Dynasty. Despite being aware of the scandalous affair of Hong Shixian, the empire did not have much time to meddle in it right now.

The bounty was still being issued, but no one dared to pursue the fugitives, leaving their capture to chance.

This allowed Jiang Xiaobai to enjoy a rare peaceful period.

But it’s worth mentioning that during this steady period, Jiang Xiaobai located another vein of energy stone. The output was not much, but one billion top-quality energy stones were still a good find.

He had nearly thirteen billion top-quality energy stones in his possession.

“This much should be enough, right?”

Jiang Xiaobai stared at the high-quality energy stones placed in the “Meandering Veins Record,” murmuring to himself.

Knowing that he would soon enter the Mad Demon Secret Land, Jiang Xiaobai was aware of his own shortcomings and had decided long ago to level up at this crucial moment.

He found a secluded cave, placed some protective array and deterrent powders within a radius of ten miles, then he entered the cave alone, ready to breakthrough his cultivation realm, leaving AnRan to guard outside.

In truth, Jiang Xiaobai was a little unsure. With billions of top grade energy stones, could he really break through to the Transcendence Period?

“Damn it, first, let’s absorb the energy and see how it goes. If I can’t break through, I’ll stir up trouble in the Thousand Yuan Dynasty,” Jiang Xiaobai thought to himself while sitting cross-legged, the “Meandering Veins Record” in his palm.

He began to fully operate the Kunpeng Swallowing Sky Skill, drawing all the energy from the Ming Veins Record. The speed was incredibly fast and enviable, even to the most talented absorbers of spiritual energy in the world.

With such speed and degree, he could easily compare with some Dividing the gods period experts and even those in Unity period.

After three hours of full absorption and refining, the billions of top-quality energy stones were all consumed, leaving Jiang Xiaobai dumbfounded.

He… hadn’t made a successful breakthrough?

“Motherf*cker, how many energy stones does it take to break through to the Transcendence Period!” Jiang Xiaobai roared inwardly.

Billions of top-quality energy stones were enough for a major force to last several years. These were all gone in just three hours, and he still hadn’t leveled up?

Jiang Xiaobai started pulling at his hair in frustration, going slightly mad.

Although he hadn’t leveled up yet, his cultivation base had become much more solid. After mulling it over, he seemed to have found the problem.

He had reached a hidden realm – Perfect Completion!

To break through this realm would be a formidable process. Though the Kunpeng Swallowing Sky skill could speed up the process, the resources consumed were inefficient.

Everything had two sides and couldn’t be perfect.

Jiang Xiaobai realized this, and understood that trying to break through the realm with only billions of top-quality energy stones was truly a bit of a stretch.

However, knowing his own strength, he estimated that absorbing fifteen billion more top grade stones would definitely allow him to level up.

But now he was facing a problem.

He had run out of energy stones.

“Do I really need to go back to the Thousand Yuan Dynasty and make a ruckus to claim my debt?”

Jiang Xiaobai narrowed his eyes, pondered for a while, and decided to do it!

“Damn it all, it’s already a life or death situation. If I don’t have the power and get caught, it means death. I may as well risk it.”

With a cold harrumph within his heart, Jiang Xiaobai walked right out.

Outside, AnRan was guardedly watching the surroundings. Upon sensing Jiang Xiaobai emerging, he quickly approached but his lively expression soon slumped.

“Boss, did you fail to break through?” AnRan asked in shock.

“Yeah, it’s a pity, just short by a few energy stones.”

Jiang Xiaobai sighed, “But it’s okay, even though I didn’t break through successfully, my strength has still substantially increased.”

“You’ve already broken through to the Transcendence Period, so why don’t we aim for a big score this time?”

Just three days ago, urged by Jiang Xiaobai, AnRan finally broke through to the Transcendence Period.

Jiang Xiaobai also gave him a large set of elixirs along the way, which not only removed the fire toxicity but also fortified his cultivation.

At this time, AnRan’s combat ability had improved dramatically.

Even a newly advanced Transcendence master was no match for him!

Thus, the strengths of the two were almost equal now.

Hearing Jiang Xiaobai’s plan, AnRan widened his eyes excitedly, “Boss, you finally decided to stir up some trouble?”

“What are you talking about? Troublemaking is risky. It could cost us our heads.”

Jiang Xiaobai glared at AnRan, “Let me make it clear, we’re not stirring up trouble. We’re collecting debts!”

“Right, right, right, whatever you say, boss.”

“Okay, then. Let’s move.”

One tall and one short silhouette rushed out of the dense forest.

Not far from Mad Demon City is the Thousand Yuan City. This place is the central location of the Thousand Yuan Dynasty.

About a thousand miles north of Thousand Yuan City is the imperial city of the

Thousand Yuan Dynasty.

This is the most prosperous place in the entirety of the Thousand Yuan Dynasty. It’s surrounded by numerous powers and mixed with all kinds of people, making it a place where no one dares to cause trouble.

At the gate of Thousand Yuan City, a young man with a lazy expression was walking slowly inwards. Suddenly, he stopped and looked towards a distant place.

There, a fat man and a thin man were walking unbothered down the street inside the city..
