Chapter 365 Celaine’s Unique Breakthrough Part 1

After Elenei dropped Maria off near Peacemaker City two years ago, Celaine was the last person she needed to drop off.

However, there was a bit of a problem.

They didn't know where to go!

Part of the reason for this is that there are simply too many places where she can find wind-element items, but that doesn't mean every place will have what she's looking for. Also, after telling Elenei what items she needed to form her Core, she knew that she'd need to find a few rare wind-element items.

Since the wind element is a fairly common affinity, there's a relatively high demand for these kinds of treasures. So, if Celaine wanted to get her hands on these items, she'd either have to compete with wealthy scions in an auction, try to come to an agreement with powerful cultivators or families, or find them herself.

That's all considering she can find someone who either has the items she needs or is selling them.

So, Celaine did the only thing she could think of:

"Can you please help me search for my items?"

She shamelessly asked Elenei to help her out! She didn't have extraordinary luck like Maria, nor did she have Mira's battle experience. She didn't have the communication skills necessary to form connections. Her background is essentially nothing. All she has is her skills with her saber and a bit of talent with her Wind Dao.

However, everything she's gotten so far has been due to her hard work. Even her fast progress in her Wind Dao is only because she's willing to put her life on the line.

Unfortunately, her saber talent can only take her so far. This is especially so when she's all alone and has to search for all of these rare items in under two years!

Therefore, the only path forward that she can see is to ask Elenei for help.

Elenei was quiet for a while after hearing Celaine's plea for help, which made Celaine quite nervous.

"Alright. I'll offer you a bit of help. Well, you probably wouldn't be able to catch up to Mira or Maria without it, and I like you the most out of the three, so I'll help you find all the items needed to break through to the Core Formation Realm."

From that point on, Elenei traveled with Celaine for a few days collecting all of the necessary resources she needed to break through.

It's truly fortunate that Celaine was able to travel on top of Elenei because every day, they spanned thousands or sometimes even tens of thousands of kilometers.

Of course, on their first day, they had to stop in a city so Celaine could obtain more knowledge on the items she needed, but after that, Elenei sped across the Western Continent like it was nothing.

Well, it's also not like Celaine was searching for Immortal-Grade items, and since the Western Continent is filled with forests and plains, wind-element items are incredibly common.

Elenei also decided to 'invest' in Celaine a bit as well. As a Phoenix who was born from both an Ice Phoenix and a Fire Dragon, the number of treasures in her possession is more than most people can fathom. Unfortunately, most of those treasures are ice and fire elemental items, but during her time searching for ways to break through, she'd also collected numerous treasures of all kinds.

Her parents had also given her treasures of all elements since they thought that maybe using a different elemental treasure could help Elenei overcome her obstacle.

All of those treasures have just been collecting dust in her Spatial Ring, so she figured she might as well hand some of them over to Celaine and put them to good use.

Of course, she didn't just give her a bunch of random items. She only gave her items that could be considered the upgraded version of whatever she was already using.

For example, if Celaine needed a 100-year-old herb, then Elenei would give her a 1,000-year-old version or maybe even a 10,000-year-old version of that herb if she had it.

It could be said that Celaine struck gold this time when she asked for Elenei's help…

"Ah! Who would've thought that little Phoenix would take a liking to that girl so much! She's even handing her such treasures that Celaine would never be able to get her hands on even if she spent 1,000 years looking for them! Well, seeing how enthusiastic everyone is, I should join in on the fun as well! Hahaha! Alright! Here's a little gift for you, Celaine. Use it well, and be sure to use your newfound power to give Mira a good beating for me! HAHAHA!"

A light shone out of the Guardian's finger and shot into Celaine's head.

"Work hard, little girl."

Suddenly, new memories started appearing in Celaine's mind. When Celaine saw what those memories contained, she was shocked.

One, the Core Formation Recipe changed into something new, and just from a brief look, Celaine knew that it seemed to have adapted to the new items she received.

The second thing that appeared in her mind, however, was something incredible. It was a cultivation technique called Wind Saber Cultivation Technique. Oddly enough, this Cultivation Technique and the new Core Formation Recipe seem to go hand in hand.

In order to cultivate this technique, one has to form a very specific Core, a Wind Saber Core. Once she forms this Core, then she'll be able to use this technique.

Another thing to note is that this technique won't conflict with the Cultivation Technique she was using previously. Once she forms this Core and breaks through to the Core Formation Realm, she'll be able to start using the Wind Saber Cultivation Technique immediately and can forget about the other cultivation technique.

Lastly, switching to this cultivation technique won't endanger one's foundation. Well, it's not like Celaine's foundation would be in any danger to begin with. The Realms before the Core Formation Realm are pretty much all the same for nearly every single cultivation technique.

Even Mira's cultivation technique, which has a scythe linked to it, isn't any different compared to other Cultivation Techniques before the Core Formation Realm. Well, except for the fact that she also has to feed Qi to her scythe…

But the way she cultivates her body is still the same as the other techniques!

Now that Celaine received a Cultivation Technique like this along with a recipe for a unique Core, she won't fall behind Maria and might even be able to stay even with Mira!

However, there's just a slight problem.

To form this Core, one of the main 'ingredients' is actually…

Saber Intent!
