Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 1587: Still a failure!

“I didn’t say that. To be honest, I’ve never heard of such a method before. At least, in my current memory, I’ve never seen it before. You’re really innovative!” “If you’re in a hurry to break through, you can try, but I won’t be responsible if something goes wrong,” elder Jiao said.

“Then let’s give it a try!” Lin Yi nodded and went back into his training mode. He started channeling the art of Dragon mastery and started compressing the energy around him.

This time, Lin Yi increased the amount of compressed energy a little, but for safety’s sake, he didn’t increase it too much, only 1.5 times! After absorbing the Qi, Lin Yi felt like he was going to explode again!

Of course, this level of pain was still bearable, but the tragedy was that after the explosion, Lin Yi realized that he was still at the late phase of the mystic class. He hadn’t broken through to the peak late phase yet!

“Still not enough?” Lin Yi frowned. He didn’t think that 1.5 times the compressed energy wouldn’t help him break through!

“Perhaps this method is no longer suitable.” “You can use it when you’re low level, but the higher level you are, the harder it’ll be to break through. If everyone uses cheats like you, then Sky Class Masters would be everywhere,” elder Jiao said.

“We’ve met quite a few Sky Class Masters now, haven’t we?” Lin Yi said with a bitter smile.

“Where are you? Go look around the streets tomorrow and get me a Sky Class master?” “If you hadn’t come into contact with that level, you’d probably never see a Sky Class in your life!” You think there are a lot of Sky Class Masters because you’ve reached that level-but how many Sky Class Masters are there in the entire ancient level?”

“You’re right … Could it be that I can’t break through?” “What if I increase the amount of compressed energy?” Lin Yi asked, unwilling to give up.

“You can try.” “I don’t really understand what you’re doing,” elder Jiao said, shaking his head.

…

Lin Yi nodded and continued to compress the energy. This time, Lin Yi gritted his teeth and increased the energy to twice its original amount!

“Boom! Boom! Boom!” The energy entered Lin Yi’s body and made a loud sound. Lin Yi felt like his meridians were like balloons being pumped with air, instantly swelling up. After that, there was another loud “BOOM!” Lin Yi let out an involuntary muffled groan as cold sweat flowed down his forehead!

Not only did Lin Yi not level up, but most of his meridians were bursting! The sudden release of energy made Lin Yi’s meridians unable to withstand this degree of expansion. Most of his meridians burst like a balloon!

Luckily, only a portion of his meridians were damaged-Lin Yi didn’t need to look for general Weiwu or Skybolt pig. He could repair them himself …

However, even though the meridians could be repaired, Lin Yi’s mood was extremely depressed! It failed, it actually failed. Perhaps the foot was right. As his strength increased, he could no longer use the technique of compressing energy as a cheat to increase his strength!

Perhaps the amount of compressed energy absorbed during the last breakthrough was the maximum amount that his meridians could bear. Once it exceeded this critical point, his meridians would not be able to bear it! Perhaps, if he compressed the energy twice as much, in theory he could break through, but in reality, his meridians couldn’t take it!

In other words, Lin Yi might never be able to use a similar method to breakthrough again!

“Phew …” Lin Yi sighed dejectedly,””It still doesn’t work. It seems like there’s no absolute cheat …”

“Your cultivation speed is already fast enough. What else are you not satisfied with?” Elder Jiao said after seeing Lin Yi’s dejected face.

“Fast enough? Is Zhang naipao fast?” Lin Yi smiled bitterly,”it’s only been a few months, and Zhang naipao’s become a master on the same level as me …”

“Your cultivation is actually not slower than his! You should count it carefully. In fact, your upgrade also started from these few months. The years before you entered the Jade space were almost equivalent to waste, so it could be ignored!” Elder Jiao said.

“You’re right … But his mental cultivation method is really powerful. He can transform other people’s Qi into his own. If I didn’t have the space in the jade pendant, I wouldn’t be his match!” Lin Yi sighed.

“If I remember correctly, the chrysanthemum Arts is the same as your art of Dragon mastery-they’re both extremely powerful ancient arts, one evil and one good, the two keep each other in check …” Elder Jiao said.”But my memory is limited, and I can’t recall any more information. Only after you open the second stone door will I be able to recall some corresponding things!”

“Oh? That’s amazing!” Lin Yi exclaimed after hearing elder Jiao’s words,”But, if it’s as you said, and both of them are extremely powerful Arts, then without the Jade space, how can the art of Dragon mastery be a match for the chrysanthemum Arts?”

“No, you’ve neglected a very important thing.” “In the ancient times, the Qi of heaven and earth was extremely abundant. The art of Dragon mastery didn’t even need the space in the Jade!” Elder Jiao said.

“Ah!” Lin Yi understood-he’d always thought that naipao’s practitioner’s Arts were stronger than his, and that he wouldn’t be naipao’s match if he didn’t have some cards up his sleeves. He’d forgotten about the training environment he was in right now!

“Who knows? after you open the second stage of the art of Dragon mastery, you might have some unexpected gains?” Elder Jiao said with a smile.

“The second level … There’s still some time before the stone door opens. So … I can’t break through during this time?” Lin Yi didn’t want to give up, he really didn’t want to!

“I don’t have a way, but you can think of a way yourself.” Elder Jiao said with a shrug.

“Alright …” Lin Yi smiled bitterly.

Lin Yi was worried, but he didn’t show it on his face. Other than practitioning, he lived happily with Mengyao, Yushu, and Tang Yun, eating and watching TV together.

Tang Yin didn’t have to stay here anymore after the exams were over. She could play here during the day and go back to her parents at night. The University was going to be in another city, and she didn’t have many days to spend with her parents.

“Shield bro, the class monitor called just now. He said that the exam is over, and they’re organizing a camp activity. He asked if we want to join?” Chen Yushu saw Lin Yi walk out of the room and said.
