With Xue Yue in that deep slumber, things became much more difficult for Ming Yue. She had lost a part of her battle prowess, unable to use the full strength of Blood Moon.
"Damn, I'm going to have to take things much slower without her", the cultivator thought.
Though she could've waited for Xue Yue to finish her transformation, Ming Yue felt that she could go higher. She had yet to reach a floor that she truly felt was unreachable.
After all, the unending challenge provided her with constant growth, pushing her cultivation higher. But at some point, the reward for power became irrelevant to her. A drop of the Supreme's power was just a slightly larger drop to her and it was not worth the trouble. So she asked solely for advice, for teachings from these ancient experts.
At her age, her cultivation was monstrous but her experience and her knowledge was lacking.
