Chapter 92: Level Up

Chapter 92: Level Up

The passage of time inside a cultivation array disk was difficult to judge, and oftentimes when the person entering felt that it might have been days since they entered, it was possible that barely a few minutes had gone by.

Similarly, it was also possible for one to end up spending hours or even days inside the cultivation array disk, not knowing just how long they had been in there.

When Evelyn had entered the cultivation array disk for 'Searing Soul', it had only taken her around twenty minutes in total from start to finish, even though to her it felt like she had been there for at least a few months. After all, even though most of the 'scenes' were skipped, she did view more than a decade of the 'Searing Soul' technique's development process.

After realizing that Amara might end up taking far longer than 'usual', both Cecilia and Evelyn decided it was better to assume she might take days, or even weeks.

This was another reason why spirit physiques were considered to have a superior talent in cultivation, aside from their higher rate of experience gain. Had it been a mortal to be in Amara's place, they would have had a real risk of perishing without food and water for an extended period of time.

Meanwhile, for the spirit physiques it was only a matter of waiting for a little longer, and there was no real 'risk' at all.

"Well, Vivi, would you like to wait for your big sis to come back first, or you wanna go now?"

"Um, now."

In sharp contrast to her big sister, Vivian didn't take much time to 'comprehend' her cultivation technique at all. The little redhead went in and out of the cultivation array within minutes, almost making Cecilia wonder if the little girl had really managed to do it or not.

"Are you sure you're done, Vivi? Don't worry about wasting spirit stones if you need to go again, you know, it's really no big deal"

"No? I already burned the city inside. Auntie was very happy, and said I was just like her!"

Assuming that the 'Auntie' was probably the image left behind by the creator of the technique, Cecilia breathed a sigh of relief. "O-Oh, I guess it's fine then."

Since it was uncertain how long Amara would take to finish her session, Evelyn and Cecilia decided that it was better to take up turns to watch over her without disrupting their other duties too much.

And when the two of them were busy with classes, it would be Vivian's duty to watch over her elder sister to make sure that the array didn't run out of spirit stones.

As Cecilia volunteered to watch over the redhead first, Evelyn was finally free to return to her room and claim her mission rewards.

Ruru seemed to realize what was coming, and recalling her traumatic level up experience three years ago, the pink fox gave her master a pitiful look.

Of course, with such a huge gain, Evelyn couldn't let little Ruru miss out. She could only console her partner by rubbing her fluffy little head. "Don't worry, although it might hurt a little, this will make us much stronger! Don't you want to become a big and strong fox, Ruru?"

The little thing seemed to actually think about it for a while before nodding with determination, and Evelyn chuckled as she placed the fluffy thing on her belly as she lay down on the bed.

As her system prompts continued unimpeded, Evelyn's mind was focused on something else entirely.

Because after comprehending 'Searing Soul', her understanding of the soul was already on a completely different level compared to before, and she realized that this unexpected 'dissociation' between her body and soul actually gave her an incredible opportunity!

Although they were 'separated' to an extent, Evelyn was well aware that her soul was still connected to her body. It was just that the enormous amount of spirit power pouring in from the world, when combined with her already 'heavy' soul, were simply too much for her current body to bear.

Under those circumstances, her soul had actually ended up being temporarily 'squeezed out' while her body 'expanded' to accommodate the increased volume of spirit power and soul, and eventually she would inevitably be sucked back in even if she tried to stay separated.

But simply being able to observe this state, as well as feel the resonance between her physical form and soul, gave Evelyn insights into their internal operations that she might not have gained even with decades of research on her own.

In fact, to say that her current insights of interaction between the body and soul exceeded even the founder of 'Searing Soul' wouldn't be far from the truth. While the difference in their levels of base knowledge was great, the headmistress hadn't ever gone through such an absurd phenomenon herself, after all.

And it also gave her an incredible lead in figuring out how to 'game' the cultivation array disk for 'Searing Soul'.
