Chapter 939: A Different Side



"Kuaagghhh!!!"

Bang!

"Enemy?!"

Hearing the string of sounds that resounded from where the two were, Valyr immediately thought of the worst-case scenario, thinking that the two had been ambushed by a group of enemies.

After all, with the power she wielded, Sellifer had no problems fighting against a Shadow Rabbit as strong as the one he killed before. Even a group of them would be easy pickings for someone like her.

But what if the Shadow Rabbits were at the Myth level?

What if a group of Shadow Rabbits at the Myth level attacked them?

Recalling how Sellifer entered the Shadow Plane without any issue, even though she was already deep into the Divine level, Valyr went ahead and activated [Azure Dragon Soaring Skies], saving his ultimate movement technique if the two ever needed to escape.

Whoosh!

With that, the young man zoomed through the skies at great speeds, crossing the over 10 kilometers he'd put between him and them within a minute.

By the time he got there, Valyr's eyes widened in surprise, briefly wondering to himself whether the sight before him was the one he should be expecting or not.

Unlike the worst-case scenario that popped up in his mind, there were no Myth-level beasts around the two whatsoever.

There weren't even any beasts at all.

Instead, what was originally a large patch of forest had been turned into a massive clearing, causing most of the beasts in the vicinity to distance themselves from its origin.

Seeing that the clearing had taken on a familiar shade of dark blue, Valyr looked around for Sellifer, only for him to find her standing at the center of the clearing.

"I told you multiple times already that you wouldn't be able to learn it," said Sellifer as she shook her head. "Back then, you'd already embraced the world of the Void and transformed your Shadow Energy to Void Energy."

"It's near impossible for someone to fuse Void Energy with mana to form Azure Energy, even more so for one to fuse Abyssal Energy with mana to do it."

"You said it's near impossible, Divine One," replied Noel, moving closer to Sellifer as he got ready to kneel in front of her once more. "That means there's still a small sliver of hope for me to be able to wield it."

"That's only if we're speaking in theory." Sellifer shook her head once more, not understanding why the old man was so adamant in learning it. "Practically, it's impossible to fuse the two together."

"All the more reason for me to ask you once more and prove you wrong," said Noel as he kowtowed in front of her. "Please, Divine One. Give this old man just one chance."

"..." With how things between the two unfolded before him, Valyr could not help but scratch the back of his head as he looked at Sellifer. "How many times has he done this already?" "More than I would have liked to count," said the woman in response, causing him to wryly smile in response.

"Why not give Elder Noel a chance?" said Valyr to Sellifer after a bit of silence, making Noel look at him with glistening eyes. "After all, he wouldn't really lose much if he were to fail in forming Azure Energy."

"If anything, even if he fails, he would have refined his mana to the point where even braiding the two would improve his combat prowess."

"Imagine if he were to incorporate concepts on top of that," continued Valyr, prompting Sellifer to go silent. "Whether he fails or not, he wouldn't have a reason to pester you

anymore after you do it."

"Hmm..." Rubbing her chin for a bit with a pensive expression, Sellifer eventually let out a sigh as she nodded in response to Valyr's words.

Seeing the woman slightly nod at Valyr's suggestion, Noel's eyes glistened with joy as he looked at Valyr with immense gratitude.

"Alright. It takes a different kind of tenacity to be so adamant in having someone like me teach you Azure Energy anyway," said the woman, her tone slightly defeated.

Nevertheless, that immediately disappeared as her expression turned solemn, briefly looking at Noel with a slightly cruel smile before shifting her gaze towards the young man.

"But before that, I'll need to have you do a test first."

"Valyr, do you have my staff with you?"
