Chapter 226: Chapter 129: Another Breakthrough! And Amy’s situation is similar, especially after inheriting the legacy of the Ice Mage, she has now taken on the legacy of the Frost and Snow Crystal Faction. With one hand wielding Frost and Snow Magic, she can turn the sky into a realm of frost and snow with a mere gesture. The power of a Wizard inherently surpasses that of a Knight of the same tier, and combined with the Freezing Technique, even though her Spiritual Power is only Mid-Stage Tier Four, she is still not inferior to Liya. The two battled on the field with no clear advantage for either side. Reina, on the other hand, was engaged in battle with Cynthia. Princess Jingge’s combat capabilities were still exceptionally strong. Although Cynthia utilized her Full-State Beastification Ability and Tier Four Nine-tailed Fox Bloodline to possess Tier Four strength, she was still firmly suppressed! The power obtained through Talent cannot truly reach Tier Four, making it impossible to effectively fight against a true Tier Four Snow Demon Mage. "Ugh, I’ve lost." Cynthia’s figure was flung sideways to the ground, feeling somewhat helpless. "Get up, continue," Reina said plainly. This time, she was acting under Lord Duke’s orders to train Cynthia. "Got it." Cynthia got up. This time, she truly wanted to grow stronger, at least to break through to Tier Four! "Tier Four Magical Beast, next time I won’t lose!" she vowed silently. It turns out that during the time David was away, Cynthia had encountered a Tier Four Saber-toothed Tiger that had emerged from the Mist into Frost Wolf Forest. After a fierce battle, Cynthia was nearly killed by the Saber-toothed Tiger and only managed to succeed when Liya and Amy arrived in time. Just thinking about it makes Cynthia shudder, solidifying her resolve to become stronger. After another round of battle. Cynthia ended her training, dragging her fatigued body. Next up was Meditation time; she needed to continuously train her Spiritual Power to better control her High-Level Beastification Talent. Once her Spiritual Power had sufficiently recovered, she headed to the border of the Mist in the Black Forest, planning to let Lord assist her in cultivating her Nine-tailed Fox Bloodline. During this time, David had been absorbing the Magic Power contained within the Magic Plants through the Plant Heart to nurture his Life Seed. Seeing Cynthia approaching, he stood up and walked over, then directly lifted Cynthia and headed towards a nearby cave. Today, Cynthia was dressed in a JK uniform skirt and white stockings, complemented by her petite stature of one meter and fifty, perfectly fitting her student-like demeanor. Inside the cave, David touched the white stockings with one hand. Before long, Cynthia was panting. Seeing this, David hesitated no more. Facing her, he sat down while holding Cynthia. [You completed a cultivation, Nine-tailed Fox Bloodline +689] [Nine-tailed Fox Bloodline: Tier Six (93536/100000)] David glanced at the experience bar of the Nine-tailed Fox Bloodline, feeling invigorated; he sensed that with some effort today, he could elevate his Nine-tailed Fox Bloodline to Tier Seven! Besides that. David clearly felt that Cynthia’s Bloodline Power was nearing a breakthrough as well. Through observation over this period, he could ascertain that Cynthia’s bloodline and talent system feedback mirrored his own bloodline and talent feedback situation. He could also conjecture Cynthia’s bloodline enhancement level based on his own bloodline strength, realizing it wasn’t far from reaching full experience value breakthrough. "It’s close," David patiently assured. [You completed a cultivation, Nine-tailed Fox Bloodline +1058] Exhaling, David felt Cynthia’s Tier Four Nine-tailed Fox Bloodline suddenly breaking through. With the continuous surge of blood energy, it broke through to Tier Five! Cynthia, initially dizzy, suddenly became lucid as she felt her weary body refreshed and her Physical Strength rapidly recovering. "My bloodline has broken through!" Cynthia widened her eyes in surprise. Seeing this, David chuckled, pulling Cynthia up while lying down himself, "So, is it time for a reward?" "Okay, okay." After another round of cultivation, David glanced at the progress bar. After Cynthia’s bloodline breakthrough to Tier Five, it already provided over a thousand experience points! "Just one more step to go!" Energized, he lifted Cynthia. [You completed a cultivation, Nine-tailed Fox Bloodline +1023] [Nine-tailed Fox Bloodline: Tier Six (100156/100000)] Finally, the Nine-tailed Fox Bloodline reached the standard for breaking through to Tier Seven. "Thanks for your hard work." David set down the teary-eyed Cynthia. When Cynthia’s feet touched the ground, they slightly buckled. Despite the supportive feedback from the newly broken-through Tier Five bloodline, such intense cultivation left Cynthia feeling thoroughly exhausted. "Hm, don’t go overboard like that next time," Cynthia huffed defiantly. David gently soothed her, inviting her to rest in his embrace. With dusk approaching. David returned to the Wizard Castle with Cynthia. After escorting Cynthia back to her room for recovery, he headed to the secret chamber to commence the breakthrough of his Nine-tailed Fox Bloodline. Closing his eyes, David felt the energy of the Nine-tailed Fox Bloodline coursing through him, accompanied by the ancient, deep, and melodious chant of the Nine-tailed Fox resonating in his ears—a sound imbued with inexplicable charm and authority. He sensed every cell within him becoming active, as if the energy were poised to completely transform his body. Suddenly, a sharp pain struck, as though he were being pulled apart. The agony caused his body to tremble involuntarily, but he gritted his teeth, not uttering a sound. He knew this was the inevitable phase of bloodline breakthrough, the most critical step. As time slowly ticked away, each second a trial for David. Finally, when the last trace of pain dissipated, a sensation of unprecedented lightness and comfort engulfed David’s entire being. He slowly opened his eyes, golden light flickering within them, a hallmark of the Nine-tailed Fox Bloodline breaking through. [Nine-tailed Fox Bloodline: Tier Seven (156/1000000), acquired Talent Ability: Extraordinary Perception] As the system notification sounded, a surge of information flooded his mind, instantly unraveling the specific effects of "Extraordinary Perception." This Talent Ability grants him awareness of any environmental change, even discerning a falling leaf or a passing breeze. It also enables him to foresee impending dangers and anticipate an enemy’s attack trajectory and intent. "The Extraordinary Power of the Nine-tailed Fox Bloodline turned out to be Extraordinary Perception rather than Extraordinary Soul." David was surprised, yet the effectiveness of Extraordinary Perception seemed more potent! The ability to anticipate danger with an Extraordinary Sixth Sense and predict enemy movements could substantially enhance his combat capabilities! Just as he longed to further experience the power of Extraordinary Perception, the feedback from the Tier Seven Nine-tailed Fox Bloodline breakthrough commenced. As the feedback from the Nine-tailed Fox Bloodline breakthrough started to pour in, David felt a surge of scorching energy spreading rapidly within, enhancing both his Spiritual Power and the Life Seed within. He closed his eyes, immersing himself in the flow of energy. The Spiritual Power surged like a thundering ocean wave, each ripple sharpening his awareness and acuity. Meanwhile, his Life Seed was undergoing constant transformation. The Life Seed, a flame-like speck deep within, was rapidly expanding at an astonishing pace, becoming more concentrated and solidified. A rich Life Energy streamed forth, permeating his entire being with boundless vitality and strength. "Ah—" David couldn’t resist a low roar. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦 He felt his body undergoing a complete metamorphosis. This wasn’t merely a power augmentation but a qualitative evolution. David distinctly recognized that he had successfully advanced to the Late Stage Tier Six Knight. Tightly clenching his fists, he felt the powerful force continuously pouring into him. "Is this what a breakthrough feels like?" David murmured to himself. Extraordinary Perception, formidable Life Force, and Spiritual Power—the benefits he reaped from this Nine-tailed Fox Bloodline breakthrough were indeed substantial. With Extraordinary Speed, Heart of Ice Element, Extraordinary Soul, Beast’s Heart, Plant Heart, and Extraordinary Perception—Extraordinary Level bloodlines and talents—his Life Seed and Spiritual Power were continually transforming, nearing Tier Seven. However, he had almost elevated every bloodline and talent that could breakthrough to its limit. Apart from Sacrificial Talent, other bloodlines and talents were quite a distance away from ranking up to the Extraordinary Level; it seemed time to consolidate. After savoring his newfound power prowess, David proceeded into the castle, intending to relish the moment with his ladies.
