"Ohh! My Lineage Cells have grown by cultivating!" Theo exclaimed in surprise and happiness and was even more surprised at the number of cells that increased, feeling that the power of his lineage increased greatly.

Seeing that Yuki was one step closer to moving to the next Tier, Theo decided to look at the movement techniques available for him to use in [System Store] as he waited for her.

"Hm... there are a lot of movement techniques that look good." Theo thought as he looked at the list of techniques that appeared before him. "I remember when Yuki used her movement technique, unlike mine, she didn't have restrictions as long as she had mana to use. I think it would be good if I also get one!" He thought he decided to buy a movement technique as well.

But before he bought it, Yuki opened her eyes and exclaimed happily: "I was able to break into the 2nd Tier of the Student Kingdom!"

Theo replied with a smile, "Oh, that's great, I'm so happy for you!"

"Hehe! Thank you! It's all thanks to you!" Yuki said with a silly, happy smile.

Seeing Yuki's silly and happy smile, Theo could not help but think she was very cute.

"Well, let's head back?" Theo asked.

"Hm, okay!" Yuki nodded.

Theo: "[Dimensional Room]"

Leaving the [Dimensional Room], Theo recalled that he has yet to purchase a movement technique.

After thinking for a long time, Theo decided to buy the movement technique: <Lightning Shadow Steps>: Primary Superior for 10,000 Points.

After buying the technique, information about it appeared in his mind. "Wow! It turns out that this ability has 6 Steps:

Stage One - Foundation Stage.

Second Step - A post-image.

Third Step - Two post-images.

Fourth Step - Three post-images.

Fifth stage - Four post-images.

Sixth step - Five post-images."

"Hm... it's no wonder that even though this technique is at the same level as the one I gave Yuki, it's twice the value..." Theo thought, satisfied with his new technique.

Theo wanted at first to already test his new technique but thought it was best to leave it for tomorrow. It was already night, and he was getting hungry too. He then went to the wooden stove, made his and Yuki's dinner and went to sleep.

-----------

After four days of training, Theo learned a lot.

As he stepped out using the <Shadowshift Steps>, his entire body seemed to be wrapped in a shadow wrapped in lightning as his imposing steps danced around!

With a "Whoosh!" his body shot off the floor. In a blink, he jumped more than a dozen yards like a shooting star. It was magnificent and amazing.

He heaved a long sigh of relief: "Phew! I finally mastered the first step." Even though he was tired, Theo could not hide his happiness. At this moment he had a big smile on his face.

After resting a little, Theo thought: "Once I have managed to better control my strength and master the first stage of the movement technique, my power has grown! Now, when I find someone hostile to me or to whom I care... I'll massacre them even if it's a dragon!!!" Theo thought with conviction, but at the moment he did not notice it when he thought it over. His eyes went completely gold, and sparks of golden rays began to come out of his eyes looking like a thunder god!!"

When Theo was like this, he was giving off a strong kill intent, scaring many animals and monsters that were not far away. Yuki realized that too, then headed to where Theo was, worried that something had happened.

Seeing Theo's eyes were all golden, Yuki asked worriedly, "Theo? Are you okay?"

Listening to Yuki's voice, Theo stopped his thoughts and his eyes went back to normal and said, "Um, um ... I'm fine, do not worry!"

Seeing that Theo had returned to normal, Yuki was relieved and happy, and went to him with loving eyes and began to rub her face on his, showing her affection.

After calming down, they returned to rest in the cave and Theo opened his [Status].

"Hm... although I haven't gone out hunt much these days, I still managed to get [System Points]. After training every day using my movement technique, I also got a breakthrough." Theo thought with satisfaction.

"Ron"

After resting a little, Theo heard his stomach growling, "We haven't eaten anything yet, and I'm feeling a little hungry."

"Yuki, I'm going outside, to make our dinner!" Theo said getting up and out of the cave.

-----------

After he and Yuki ate and rested, Theo asked, "Have you mastered the first stage of your movement technique?"

"Not yet..." Yuki thought for a moment and said, "But I think in a day or two later I can do it!" She said.

"Haha! So when you do, I'll give you a present!" Theo smiled.

"Really? I'll try harder!" Yuki said even more determinedly.

Theo imagined that he managed to get to the first stage quickly because he has already made it to the medium stage in the technique <Turtle's Breath>. He also gave Yuki this technique, but she only began to learn not long ago, so it seemed normal that she takes a little longer to learn it, even though he thought the degree of difficulty of his movement technique seemed to be greater. And also his perception increased a lot after he won the [Golden Fox Lineage].

After talking for a while about their training experiences and perception, Theo and Yuki soon fell tired and went to sleep.

Waking up early, Theo noticed that Yuki had already woken up. Yawning, he stood up.

"Good morning, Theo!" Yuki said seeing Theo wake up.

"Yes, good morning!" Theo said looking out of the cave and seeing that there was a beautiful Sun outside.

"Let's work hard today too!" Theo said.

Encouraged by Theo, Yuki replied: "Yes! I will do my best!"

Theo made breakfast for both, and soon after they went to the [Dimensional Room] to cultivate.

7 hours later…

[Filled: 140 Cells]

"The ... 7 hours remain as the limit that I can cultivate in the day...!" Theo exclaimed a little disappointed, but remembering that thanks to [Dimensional Room] his cultivation is 20 times faster than normal: "Luckily, I have this [Dimensional Room]. Thanks to that, my speed is growing so fast!" Theo was happy to think so.

Because Yuki cultivated with the (Dragon's Egg), Theo thought that was why he could cultivate longer than her. Of course, that's what he thought, since he really didn't know if it was the reason for it or not.

"Ah!!!" Waiting for Yuki, Theo remembered something: "Thinking about it now, I did not use the [Pills of the 5 Elements] after I advanced to the Student Kingdom."

Seeing the list of 5 pills appearing, Theo soon bought all of them for 25,000 points in total.

Soon the 5 pills appeared in front of Theo and he used his divine sense to open the [Earth Pill] flask and then levitated it to his mouth and swallowed.

Feeling a slight pain invading his body, Theo clenched his teeth tightly and held it in. Not long after, the pain stopped. Theo then took the [Metal Pill] and started absorbing it too.

His bones that had already been rebuilt by his [Lineage] began to strengthen even more. Although he felt a lot of pain in the process, in comparison to the pain he felt when he created his lineage, this pain wasn't so difficult for him to bear.

"Only three more to go!" Theo exclaimed after the pain passed away.

He then took the [Wood Pill] and began absorbing it, but this time he just felt a very good and pleasant feeling of his strength rising.

Seeing that the effect of it also passed, Theo took the [Fire Pill] and began to digest it. Soon after he began to digest the fire pill, his body began to be surrounded by a layer of flames and began to refine his whole body, making him close his teeth tightly, having to bear a strong pain.

"Last one!!" Seeing only the [Water Pill] left, Theo put it in his mouth as well and began to digest it. This time 20% of the impurities in his body began to come out uncontrollably from his pores.

"It's finally over!!" Theo exclaimed, "Hm... my body got lighter and easier to control!" He said and smiled.

"The bad part is this foul smell of impurity! Hm... " A thought then came into his mind, "Is there a skill or technique that can use water to clean myself?" Thinking about it, Theo thought it was worth checking.
