Immortal Ice Empress: Path to Vengeance

Chapter 370 [Bonus Chapter]Celaine's Unique Breakthrough Part 6

Now that Celaine finally learned Saber Intent, it was time for her to break through to the Core Formation Realm.

Just thinking about breaking through caused Celaine to tremble in anticipation. There are other reasons for her excitement other than being strong enough to give Mira a beating. That is, of course, her new Cultivation Technique and Core!

She can tell that the benefits she'll gain from the technique and Core won't just increase her strength but will also create something unique within her. It might also increase her talent with the Saber! Well, at least she hoped it did. If she can further increase her only talent, then wouldn't she be able to compete with monsters like Mira?

Celaine then spent the next week meditating, calming her mind, so she has no distracting thoughts for when she attempts to break through.

Asami watched Celaine meditate over this past week and wondered what she was doing. At first, she thought that maybe Celaine was just consolidating her Saber Intent, but she dismissed that thought almost immediately.

For one, Celaine's Saber Intent was consolidated during her enlightenment. Two, Celaine wasn't releasing any energy fluctuations.

However, she knows that it's incredibly rude to disturb someone when they're meditating, so Asami kept quiet.

Then, after a week, Celaine finally opened her eyes and looked at Asami.

"I'm going to break through to the Core Formation Realm, so don't bother me until I'm done."

Asami was stunned and unconsciously blurted out, "Wait! Don't!"

Celaine stared at Asami without any change in her expression, "Why?"

"If you break through just like that, you might hinder your potential! There are these things called Core Formation Reci-"

Celaine cut off Asami, "Core Formation Recipes? Yeah, I know what they are. I'm going to be using one for my breakthrough, so be quiet and stop bothering me until I finish breaking through. Actually, you should rejoice that I'm even allowing you to witness my breakthrough… Ah! Now that I think about it, I probably shouldn't allow you to watch me form my Core. What to do?"

"I, Asami Sasaki, hereby swear that I will not leak any and all information regarding Celaine's Core Formation Breakthrough or the Core she has formed. If I do so, may the Heavens strike me down! There, will that allow me to watch your breakthrough?" Asami didn't hesitate to swear to the Heavens. She wanted to know just what kind of Core Celaine would form because she had a feeling that the reason why she spent her time comprehending Saber Intent instead of breaking through was for this Core.

Although she had no evidence regarding this conjecture, Asami had her suspicions.

1: Celaine can clearly break through whenever she wants. So, why wait? She could be searching for ingredients in the mountain, but that didn't make much sense because Celaine spent a lot of her time meditating on her Saber Intent. If she was really only looking for ingredients, there was no need to waste her time meditating in a cave.

2: Celaine decided to break through to the Core Formation Realm right after comprehending Saber Intent. From what she knew, there's no benefit to learning Intent before or after a specific Realm like the Core Formation Realm. It's a totally independent power system. Since that's the case, why did Celaine decide to break through only after comprehending Saber Intent?

Now, after hearing that Celaine already knew about Core Formation Recipes and was going to use one to break through, her suspicions were all but confirmed. There has to be something unique about her Core Formation Recipe, and Asami wasn't going to let this opportunity pass her by!

She's never heard of a Core Formation Recipe requiring an Intent, and if her conjectures are true, then what she's about to witness will be groundbreaking! She'll be able to witness something that could shake the very foundation of the Cultivation World!

How could she pass up such an opportunity?!

If all it takes is swearing an oath to the Heavens, then she'll gladly do so as long as she can witness what's about to happen!

Celaine stared at Asami in surprise when she heard the Heavenly Oath, but when she noticed the look in her eyes, she sighed.

"You know, you're too smart for your own good. Well, whatever. I'll allow you to stay and watch. It's not like you could replicate it anyway. Now, just sit there and be quiet! I won't repeat myself again!" Celaine felt like the last week of meditation was becoming useless the more she interacted with this woman.

Asami nodded her head repeatedly and stopped talking. Seeing this, Celaine took a few deep breaths before taking out all the ingredients needed for her breakthrough.

When Asami saw the ingredients, Celaine was pulling out, her eyes nearly popped out of her sockets!

'WHAT THE FUCK?! WHERE'D SHE EVEN GET THIS STUFF?!' Asami internally screamed but didn't dare say anything.

Now, Asami was even more curious about Celaine's background. How could she not be? The stuff Celaine is taking out are things that even the top families and Sects in the Central Continent can't get their hands on easily! No, she can't even recognize a few of the items, but based on their aura, she can tell that they are beyond extraordinary!

Celaine paid no mind to her spectator and soon finished taking out all of the items needed to form her Core.

Now, things start to get a bit more complicated. She now needs to materialize all of her Saber Intent into a single point, and then she'll be able to start forming her Core!

However, it isn't easy to materialize all of her Saber Intent and condense it into a single point. Since the use of Saber Intent relies on one's mind and willpower, externalizing all of it should result in her falling unconscious, causing the externalized Saber Intent to dissipate.

Celaine didn't have a way to overcome this, and it seems like that's also the point of this process. So, Celaine could only brute force her way through it; if she fails, she'll try again. She'll try again and again until she can finally stay conscious even after externalizing all of her Saber Intent!

Although she thought that way, Celaine also didn't have any plans to repeat this process. She's confident in her ability to stay conscious even when she should be knocked out cold.

The basis of her confidence? Of course, it's Mira's training!

In times like these, Celaine truly appreciates the hellish training Mira put her under. It's because of that training that she's able to face any situation with confidence.

'Let's do this!'
