Chapter 192 - 74: Is the Talisman Vengeful God Digging Its Own Grave? [Space Slash] Potential? (Part 3)

He didn’t care.

He also didn’t care about the progress bar of the divine skill.

As long as he continued to depict, the progress would increase.

Belief Talisman progress +1...

Belief Talisman progress +1...

High-level Comprehension progress +1...

High-level Comprehension progress +1...

Time passed second by second.

The progress of the Belief Talisman gradually increased.

What’s interesting is.

Practicing the Belief Talisman has another incidental benefit, which is during Xu Ran’s practice.

He would think about what those mysterious symbols from the Light Turtle Shell actually meant.

Although he couldn’t understand them, the movement of his hands didn’t affect his thoughts, so as he thought and practiced simultaneously, he managed to brush out 100 progress for High-level Comprehension.

This felt incredibly satisfying.

Two birds with one stone!

Achieving twice the result with half the effort!

Efficiency skyrocketing!

Feeling absolutely amazing!

Xu Ran smiled slightly, previously he had to rely on reading books to increase the progress of [High-level Comprehension], which took about two hours daily.

Now, the technique has advanced.

Practicing Belief Talisman and High-level Comprehension have merged, requiring only 1 hour.

Feeling absolutely amazing!

In this efficient self-discipline.

One day quickly passed.

And every day that followed, Xu Ran spent in this delightful manner.

As you see, his name is Xu Ran, eight years old, living at Demigod Kindergarten East Slope, Genius Villa block 001.

No little girlfriend, studying at Demigod Kindergarten while being a mentor to super geniuses, being self-disciplined until nine o’clock in the evening before going indoors.

He had no particular favorite snacks, only tasted desserts occasionally, went to bed at ten o’clock, ensured he slept for eight hours each night, drank a warm glass of milk before sleeping, then "magnetically attracted" to the ceiling, instantly falling asleep, sleeping till morning without carrying over fatigue and pressure to the next day.

Every time in health checks, doctors say he’s quite normal...

...

Time flew by, in a blink, 39 days passed, marking the arrival of Xu Ran’s 2,980th day of adolescence!

For Xu Ran, this day was rather ordinary, nothing special.

However.

This day was extremely special for someone.

In the morning.

Like usual, Xu Ran woke up early, washed up, casually glanced at his system panel.

Qi Blood Value: 38,454 points...

Spiritual Value: 3,232 points...

Super Explosion Slash progress (Beginner): 6,000/10,000...

Belief Talisman progress (Beginner): 6,000/10,000...

High-level Comprehension progress: 68,000/100,000...

"Hmm! Noticeable improvement. Belief Talisman just needs forty days to reach Minor Achievement. High-level Comprehension is only 320 days away from being Skilled in Enlightenment..."

"Feeling the daily progress is just too exhilarating."

Xu Ran arrived at the garden entrance.

The osmanthus planted by his mother had already blossomed, the fragrance overwhelming.

"Heading out to eat."

Lately, Xu Ran’s mood matched the spotless, pure blue sky above.

But once he stepped out.

He heard an energetic shout coming from afar...

"Little—Ran—Brother—!"

The voice came first.

Following it, an enthusiastic figure approached swiftly, zooming in rapidly, unmistakably Tiger Girl executing the Three Thousand Thunder Moves, dashing towards Xu Ran.

About ten meters in front of Xu Ran, Tiger Girl began to brake, flailing her arms and legs until she pulled up right in front of him.

Her shoe soles nearly sparked...

Xu Ran couldn’t help but smile: "Is the Three Thousand Thunder Moves fun?"

Tiger Girl: "Fun~ Super fast~"

"But none of that matters! Little Ran brother, today’s most important thing is—I’ve turned eight years old!"

"Quickly teach me the Qi Blood Cultivation Method! Please teach me quickly!"

She seemed like a seal that had expired, shaking Xu Ran’s arm back and forth.

Xu Ran helplessly asked: "The principal told you to come find me?"

Tiger Girl nodded: "Yes! I knocked on the principal’s door, but he wasn’t awake yet, so he told me to come to you. After all, you’re the creator of the Cultivation Method, and you’re such a great lecturer."

Tiger Girl blinked her golden eyes, playing cute and acting spoiled. To be honest, her oval face with a bit of baby fat was explosively adorable when she acted spoiled.

Xu Ran pinched Tiger Girl’s face: "Alright, alright. I’ll teach you."

"Come with me, I’ve inscribed my Demigod Cultivation Method on a Turtle Shell, you should read the Turtle Shell first, and then I’ll explain it to you, you must understand thoroughly and completely inscribe it on a blank Turtle Shell once, before attempting to cultivate!!"

Tiger Girl smiled brightly: "Alrighty, alrighty. I’ll listen to Little Ran brother! Let’s go! Let’s go!"

She held onto Xu Ran, quickly jogging towards the Treasure Vault, she seemed overly eager, clearly needing release.

Xu Ran could not help but smile: "You are way too eager..."

Tiger Girl’s small face showed her strong competitive spirit: "Of course, in our batch, only I haven’t turned eight yet."

"Only my Qi Blood is still at over 7,100 points. Bian Yue younger sister and Feng Yan younger brother both have over 10,000 Qi Blood Value."

"Also, I heard from others, the super geniuses in the selection competition are all two years older than me, or even two and a half!!"

Tiger Girl bent her fingers: "By cultivating for one year more, they’d have an extra 14,000 Qi Blood Value ahead of me, by two years, they’d be ahead by 35,000 Qi Blood Value... Though I’m highly skilled, too great a gap in Qi Blood Value can be quite troubling."

"Besides, I can’t grasp your Sword Technique..."

Xu Ran couldn’t contain his amusement, this little girl had already started strategizing against the Godslaying Squad’s competition rivals?

She was truly determined to win!

Being two and a half years younger yet still fiercely competitive was simply... a perfect match for her character.

Xu Ran patted Tiger Girl’s head: "Can’t grasp my Sword Technique, no worries. Did you practice Space Slash? It’s been over a month, right? There should be some progress, shouldn’t there? Don’t tell me you haven’t made any progress!"

"I have, I have!"

"How could there be no progress?"

"I’ve been working super hard!"

Tiger Girl’s eyes suddenly brightened, her expression slightly excited: "Last night, I found a bit of a trick, but... can only slash leaves."

"Oh?"

Xu Ran raised his eyebrows, pointing at a nearby camphor tree: "Come, show it to me."

"Alright then, watch closely! Level 1 Space Slash!"

As she spoke.

Tiger Girl confidently raised her little head, walking to a spot ten meters from the camphor tree.

Golden ripples gently unfolded, enveloping the surroundings.

Then.

Tiger Girl formed a blade with her fingers, gently swung forward.

Though separated by ten meters, the leaves still in that instant snapped at the waist, several neatly cut leaves fell to the ground simultaneously.

"Look, it’s just like this..."

Xu Ran: "..."

Hmm...

How to put it.

The remote slash, somewhat had the flavor of Super Explosion Slash, but evidently it wasn’t as mysterious, domineering, or powerful as [Super Explosion Slash].

On the other hand. At the current stage, Space Slash not only requires time to set the scene, but its manifested destructive power was ridiculously small.

Xu Ran was nearly amused.

But being a professional, trained well, he didn’t say much.

Actually, it’s already pretty good!

Even with the slightly lesser destructive power.

It at least validates Xu Ran’s theoretical correctness!!!

The principle of [Space Slash] is indeed feasible!

With gradual exploration and diligent practice, as strength improves, the destructive power of [Space Slash] is bound to increase.

Eventfully, in the space controlled by Tiger Girl.

Her [Space Slash] could cut through anything.

Xu Ran nodded slightly: "It’s pretty good, truly a remarkable talent, you’ve really managed to figure it out. Genius! This [Space Slash] will surely be infinitely potent."

Tiger Girl’s cheeks turned slightly red, feeling bashful in her excitement: "It’s a divine skill created by Little Ran brother! Sadly, I haven’t unleashed its necessary destructive power! But I have a premonition that the future [Space Slash] will cut through anything!"

"I will absolutely not let down Little Ran brother’s creation!"

Tiger Girl straightened her posture, her gaze fiercely determined, golden eyes full of resolve.

Xu Ran surprised: "Premonition that [Space Slash] could cut through anything? That incredible?"
