Chapter 147: Deadly Situation

Chapter 147: Deadly Situation

"Ah..."

"???"

"Kneel?"

Hearing Gu He's words, Nalan Yanran was clearly puzzled, not understanding what Gu He meant.

Although she had heard about the energy transmission through the ritual from Xiao Yi Xian, she had no knowledge of the specific steps involved.

Seeing the solemn expression on Gu He's face, Nalan Yanran hesitated for a moment and decided to trust him. She slowly came in front of Gu He and sat down.

Gu He reminded her, "Yanran, I'm going to perform the energy transmission ritual on you. It might be painful, so you need to endure it."

Upon hearing this, Nalan Yanran's heart tightened.

Will it be very painful?

As the daughter of the Nalan Clan, Nalan Yanran had rarely experienced pain.

Hearing Gu He mention pain, she subconsciously felt a little fearful.

However, when she thought about the fact that this energy transmission ritual could significantly boost her cultivation, Nalan Yanran's eyes showed determination.

It's just a little pain, right?

I can endure it.

For the sake of becoming stronger, a little pain is nothing.

With these thoughts in mind, Nalan Yanran raised her head and a hint of determination appeared on her pretty face. "Teacher, please go ahead. Yanran is not afraid of pain."

Seeing the determination on Nalan Yanran's face, Gu He nodded slightly, showing a sense of contentment. "Good, I'll be quick."

Then, with a slightly worried tone, he reminded her, "If you can't endure it later, don't force it; otherwise, it may harm your meridians, and the costs might outweigh the benefits."

Upon hearing Gu He's words, Nalan Yanran's expression became even more serious, but she still nodded firmly. "Disciple will be cautious."

"Good."

Gu He nodded in satisfaction and then moved behind Nalan Yanran. "Yanran, I'm going to begin. Concentrate your mind and spirit, and focus on refining the energy I'm transmitting into your body."

Upon hearing this, Nalan Yanran didn't dare to be careless. She quickly closed her eyes and concentrated her mind.

Gu He didn't say much more. He extended his right palm and gently pressed it against Nalan Yanran's back. With a focused mind, he immediately activated the transmission technique and began transmitting the energy into Nalan Yanran.

As Gu He willed it, an extremely profound energy surged from his body into his arm, then gathered in the palm of his hand before rushing into Nalan Yanran's body.

Nalan Yanran was focused on her preparations and was curious about the details of this energy transmission ritual.

Just then, she suddenly felt the palm on her back become extremely hot, and a vast energy forcibly entered her body.

With a sudden tearing pain, Nalan Yanran's complexion changed dramatically.

Pain!

So painful!

Nalan Yanran had never experienced such pain before, and for a moment, she couldn't help but lose her composure.

"Yanran, why are you dawdling? Quickly concentrate your mind and spirit, and refine the energy within your body."

At this moment, Gu He's voice, tinged with a hint of severity, rang out, bringing Nalan Yanran back to her senses.

Sensing the profound energy inside her, Nalan Yanran couldn't afford to be careless. She immediately activated her cultivation technique and started to refine the energy within her.

As she refined the energy, Nalan Yanran truly understood how profound the energy that had rushed into her body was.

In just a moment, the cyclone of her fighting energy had already been filled with this abundant energy.

With a muffled sound, Nalan Yanran's aura changed slightly, increasing significantly.

She had reached the level of an Eight-Star Dou Zhe!

Nalan Yanran was pleasantly surprised that in such a short period, she had directly broken through the bottleneck of a Seven-Star Dou Zhe and advanced to the Eight-Star Dou Zhe level.

Tasting the sweetness of this achievement, Nalan Yanran was greatly encouraged. Ignoring the intense pain in her body, she concentrated on refining the energy.

As time passed, within a few breaths, the energy inside Nalan Yanran's body surged explosively.

Boom!

With a muffled sound, Nalan Yanran's aura changed once again.

She had broken through to the Nine-Star Dou Zhe!

However, at this moment, Nalan Yanran was not in good shape. She was drenched in sweat, and her pretty face had become somewhat pale.

Clearly, the process of energy transmission was causing her immense pain.

If it weren't for the breakthrough in her cultivation, Nalan Yanran would have long been unable to bear it.

No!

I must endure!

I must break through!

Nalan Yanran's beautiful eyes shimmered with determination.

But unfortunately, the sensation of her meridians tearing apart in her body made her feel somewhat powerless.

Not long after, there was another change in Nalan Yanran's aura.

Peak of Nine-Star Dou Zhe!

"Teacher, I can't take it anymore!"

The excruciating sensation of tearing in her meridians finally overwhelmed Nalan Yanran. If she continued to endure, she would likely become useless.

At this moment, she had reached her limit.

Gu He, upon hearing her plea, didn't hesitate and immediately withdrew his palm, ending the energy transmission.

Phew!

In the moment Gu He withdrew his hand, Nalan Yanran finally couldn't hold on any longer. She collapsed onto the ground, breathing heavily.

Despite the short duration of the energy transmission process, Nalan Yanran had felt like she had endured for an eternity.

But after sensing her current level of cultivation, Nalan Yanran's beautiful eyes revealed a look of ecstasy.

Peak of Nine-Star Dou Zhe!

In just a short time, she had broken through from a Seven-Star Dou Zhe to the peak of a Nine-Star Dou Zun! She had saved herself months of hard work! It was truly incredible.

Thinking about the method Gu He used for the energy transmission, Nalan Yanran was even more shocked.

Gu He was indeed incredible!

No wonder Xiao Yi Xian and Liu Ling had grown so rapidly in such a short time.

Nalan Yanran felt that, under Gu He's energy transmission and guidance, even a pig would become powerful.

"Ding, the host has granted Fourth Disciple Nalan Yanran an hour's worth of cultivation. Congratulations to the host for triggering the tenfold return and gaining a year's worth of cultivation!" (Equivalent to a Six-Star Dou Ancestor) {TL/N: Uh well, i am not sure what to say about this. But this was what came out. Please understand}

"Ding, a year's worth of cultivation has been sent to the system space. Please check and collect it, host."

At this moment, Gu He's mind also received prompts from the system.

Gu He shook his head somewhat helplessly.

Nalan Yanran was truly too weak.

Or perhaps, Gu He's current strength was just too formidable.

Their strength was like night and day.

Gu He's one-hour worth of cultivation was already too much for Nalan Yanran to bear.

Gu He shook his head somewhat helplessly.

It seemed like he would need to train Nalan Yanran thoroughly in the coming days. Otherwise, she might become useless in the future.

What could she do with just a year's worth of cultivation?

Moreover, as Gu He's strength continued to increase, Nalan Yanran would likely be unable to endure even an hour's worth of cultivation in the next energy transmission.

Not only Nalan Yanran, even Xiao Yi Xian and Liu Ling would likely be able to endure less and less time in the future.

Compared to Gu He, their progress was incredibly slow.

It was almost like being trapped in a dead end.

Even though Gu He had done everything he could to improve their physical strength and cultivation, it seemed to be of no use.

Gu He frowned; he felt that he had to find a solution to this problem. Otherwise, the speed of his own strength improvement might slow down in the future.
