BXBX NOVEL Chapter 216: Him And Pain...
And he had to do it all in fifteen minutes!
"It looks like I can no longer postpone my breakthrough," he muttered, a growing urge for more power building up inside him.
"I have already achieved a perfect foundation in the Quantum Foundation Establishment Realm. This 'predicament' with the Bigfoot monster only gives me more reason to speed up my breakthrough into the Early Quantum Core Formation Realm."
His words echoed out as he scanned his surroundings, trying to locate a spot where he could commence his breakthrough.
|You're attempting to breakthrough right now, Azmond?| Boundless questioned with a curious look on her face.
She didn't for a second, question why he would risk breaking through while in the presence of millions of bloodthirsty monsters.
After all, his breakthroughs were nothing like how normal people broke through. And if a daring monster had the guts to intervene in his breakthrough, then it was likely Emu would come out of there with another snackan extremely 'toasted' snack.
The energies released from his breakthroughs were no joke! They were practically mass weapons of destruction all on their own!
...
"Yah, there's no time better than now," Azmond responded to Boundless's earlier question, a smile present on his face.
|Kay!|
She linked arms with him before they started to fly in the direction of a 'deserted' watch tower.
Even though he thought of it as such, it wasn't actually deserted. The guards who used to keep a vigilant watch in said tower were just dead.
Their corpses lay littered throughout the large watch tower
Although none of them could really be termed 'corpses' as they were missing most of their once intact bodies, now entrails and burst organs were the only things left as proof of their existence's.
Nonetheless, such a gory sight didn't deter a certain fox-masked man the least bit as he sat on top of the towera tower that was over 1000 meters in height.
The number of monsters in this particular area of the Northern Side of RiverBloom was relatively minimal, so not many witnessed the bold human about to attempt a break-through in the middle of a beast rampage!
|Azmond, hurry up and do it already! I'm patiently waiting for the next System Function that comes with your breakthrough!! Money is the best, after all!| Boundless effused with a wide smile on her face.
*Rub! Rub!*
Her body soon attached itself to his back as she rubbed those soft pillows up and down!
"... Can you please not do that?"
|Nope!|
Following an instant response, she wrapped her arms around his neck as she laid her head on his shoulder, waiting for him to begin his breakthrough!
"..."
*Sigh*
Azmond let out an exasperated sigh before moving his attention to his breakthrough into the Early Quantum Core Formation Realm.
One might think that Boundless could be in extreme danger while she lay latched onto him during his breakthrough; however, she was sort of like a ghost when it came to 'invinciblity'. So he wasn't worried in the slightest.
WAAAA!
Crimson red and black energies swirled around a masked figure sitting in a lotus position as the figure in question took on the constant onslaught caused by him 'aggravating' the Qi that entered his body.
He became bloodied and battered beyond belief as he even lost his left arm somewhere during the breakthrough; however, he treated such injuries as nothing more than training dummies that assisted him in honing his mastery over his 'Boundless Restoration' technique.
Azmond and Pain had already become quite familiar with each other over the last 12 years. In fact, it was hard for him to recall a time when he didn't need to go through extreme pain to get stronger. Excluding the help from Boundless and the system she provided, of course.
If she never came into his life, then he assumed that every one of his breakthroughs and increases in power would've required him to experience even more excruciating pain than the increases that came before.
However, thanks to her, those predicted daily doses of pain were reduced to a fraction of what they could've been. It was the assistance provided by Boundless that allowed him to retain his sanity for a little while longer
WAAA!
The crimson energies reached their zenith as half the city above the Northern Walls was enveloped by the lethal Qi tornado that consumed Azmond within it!
Even a Void Refining Realm cultivator would be unlikely to come out of such a 'reactive' Qi Storm unscathed!
His figure floated in place, thousands of meters above RiverBloom, as half his body was no longer there.
It was a 'familiar' sensation that he hadn't felt since his last breakthrough
However, in spite of the damage done to his body, the placid expression on his face never left him.
He seemed to treat his entire breakthrough as nothing more than routine or mundane. After all, this wasn't the first or the second time that he lost half his body during a breakthrough, and it sure as hell wouldn't be the last!
Azmond wouldn't even be surprised if he lost every piece of his physical body during his breakthrough into the Middle Quantum Core Formation Realm. Something that he would figure out if it were the case or not in a few minutes.
He still had around 13 and a half minutes until the Unity Form Synthesis Realm Monster made it to the City Walls.
And his breakthrough into the Early Core Formation Realm wouldn't be enough for him to cross the gap between the Half-Step Unity Form Synthesis Realm and the Unity Form Synthesis Realm in combat power.
Such an increase in cultivation realm would at most catapult him to the peak stages of the Half-Step Unity Form Synthesis Realm...
