Chen Wentian didn’t take Bei Yingluo too far. Under the cover of the overcast sky, he deposited them atop a small tabletop mountain that overlooked the desert. There were no living things there except for them.
He beckoned to her with one hand behind his back, the classic sect master pose, “Your power is still active; this is a good opportunity. Come, attack me with all of your strength.”
“Yes, master!”
Bei Yingluo whipped out the Jade Tusk Spear. Her eyes flashed with crimson light as the energy within her dantian boiled over, spreading across her body and giving her great power. Her clothes fluttered even though there was no wind, perturbed by the waves of spiritual energy that had nowhere else to go.
“Bei Family Spear, First Movement!”
Her spear thrust forward rapidly. The blade tip was coated in a layer of crimson spiritual energy. Each attack was filled with destructive power and could smash apart boulders as if they were made of sand.
Chen Wentian’s figure glided in the air, dodging left and right. For the attacks he was too lazy to move for, he deflected them with his fingertips.
“Good, let the power into your body. Embrace it and get even stronger!”
“Yes!” Bei Yingluo twirled around and started on the second movement.
As she did so, the level of spiritual energy steadily rose. It went from the 1st Level of the Spirit Initiate Realm to the third level in a short span of time.“Ha!”
“Haiya!”
Ping!
Pang!
The pair of master and disciple danced across the desert landscape. Under a cloudy night, there was nobody to bear witness except themselves to a wonderous moment.
Chen Wentian sensed it first but he didn’t say anything. Bei Yingluo soon felt it, her mind sea which had been hard at work maintaining her state of mind suddenly pulsed with power and expanded. Just like that, she experienced a small breakthrough from the 3rd Level of the Mind Focusing Realm to the fourth level. It was a long time coming and she burst out laughing.
“Haha, I finally broke through!”
“Good girl, keep going!” He reminded her and blocked her spear strongly.
The shockwave that shot down the shaft brought her back and she became serious once more. Her crimson energy had receded somewhat but she once again thought about her family, the Bei Clan, and the old matriarch that had been stern but kind. She had sacrificed her life for her along with many other family members so that the clan could survive.
“I can keep going!” She declared as she once again brimmed with destructive might.
The crimson energy shot up and kept rising. 4th Level of the Spirit Initiate Realm, 5th Level of the Spirit Initiate Realm, she could go even higher!
Her spear didn’t stop either. She went from the second movement to the third movement and then to the fourth. She even increased the weight of the spear massively and her attacks became even more fearsome.
Chen Wentian watched her with happiness. Her hidden power was so amazing. Coupled with the weight-increasing ability of the Jade Tusk Spear, they were a perfect match. Although her spiritual energy was at the fifth level, the might of the weapon meant that her actual combat prowess was at the seventh or even the eighth level.
If she reached the peak of the Mind Focusing Realm, then she would be able to fight evenly with experts at the peak of the Spirit Initiate Realm and even dominate them. This would simply break their mentality at such an impossible feat.
They continued to spar until Bei Yingluo finally ran out of energy after about fifteen minutes. She fell over in utter exhaustion but Chen Wentian caught her before she faceplant into the dirt. He whispered words of praise as he set up a tent and brought her inside…
Over the next few days, they stayed in that location by themselves. The outpost was still being built and now that they had a method to communicate with the home base, there wasn’t much to worry about.
Chen Wentian focused all of his efforts on his eleventh disciple who he had neglected for a long time. He fed her the most expensive healing pills money could buy for her realm. He fed her nourishing meals that he had prepared. And he also gave her plenty of his famous massage sessions using his Benevolent Hands technique.
These sessions would always start out serious but devolved into debauchery. Naturally, it was impossible for him to keep his sexual desires in check when he was running his hands all over a naked woman, especially if she was so willing and receptive.
His fingers would often themselves inside her pussy or her ass as he brought her to many screaming orgasms. She would return the favor by giving amazing blowjobs. Other times, they would simply fuck like horny teenagers.
And throughout these activities, he never forgot to help her cultivate. He pushed her hard and with each spar, she had to use her crimson energy to the limit. Through many rounds, they figured out more information about her power and how she could use it better.
The baseline increase in her cultivation was one whole realm. At least in the mortal realms, this was the case. They still didn’t know how this increase would apply to the lesser realms.
She could easily increase her power beyond the baseline but this rapidly expended her vitality and decreased her endurance. She could fight for about thirty minutes at the baseline. If she increased it to two levels, she could only last fifteen minutes. If she increased it even further to four levels, she could only stand it for one minute before she collapsed.
Fighting at a lower power level was more troublesome and she would need more time and practice. In a few days, she was able to lower it by three levels and fight at the 1st Level of the Spirit Initiate Realm. Going any further seemed impossible at the moment but with this decrease, she had far more endurance and could survive a long fight.
And lastly, through both of their hard over many days, Bei Yingluo once again had a small breakthrough and reached the 5th Level of the Mind Focusing Realm. Chen Wentian attributed the rapid progress to the fact that her hidden power was especially taxing on the mind. Since her mind was getting so much practice, it was natural that she would be able to get some benefits.
“Alright, it is finally time for us to return.” Chen Wentian said one morning and cleaned up their campsite with a sweep of his hand. “Jasmine is about to wake up. There are some matters I have to take care of for her.”
“I understand. Master, what are your instructions?” Bei Yingluo asked.
She looked up at him adoring eyes. If she was completely loyal to him before, these few days had yet again improved her opinion of him to new heights. It was difficult to grasp but it was close to worship and utter devotion.
He smiled and gave her a hug, “Take care of the Bei Clan for now. Staying with your family will only strengthen your state of mind. Cultivate by yourself the same we have done so. I think you should be able to make quick work of the Mind Focusing Realm.”
“Yes, master.”
“Let me know if those crazy women from the south cause you any more problems. I plan on going down there sometime but that will have to wait for another day… Oh, by the way, you might see Lingxi occasionally. I sent word to her and told her about the outpost. She might come if she needs supplies or anything else.”
“Understood, Sister Peng is always welcome.”
“Good, alright. Let’s go back, I bet your aunts will be really surprised by your progress. They might want to have a drinking party again.”
“Hahaha, naturally!”
