Getting Stronger By Fighting

Wang Zhan did not speak, but his gaze remained fixed on Li Du, clearly waiting for Li Du’s next words.

After hesitating for a moment, Li Du finally lowered his voice once more and continued, "If I haven’t guessed wrong, you must be planning to face Song Tianyang personally when he arrives. If you’re not a match for Song Tianyang, you’ll likely lead him away. Am I right?"

"Song Tianyang is pursuing us because you took the Divine Heart and the Glaze Crystal Body. His target is only you, not Tian Pavilion. It seems you’re planning to sacrifice yourself for everyone again?"

Hearing this, Wang Zhan was momentarily stunned. He looked at Li Du with a face full of confusion before continuing to ask, "How did you know?"

"Actually, it’s quite simple. I’m different from them, and it’s my first time seeing you so heavy-hearted, so it proves you’re enduring inner turmoil. You don’t wish to be separated from everyone, but as things have come to this, you probably don’t have a better solution..."

"So, guessing your thoughts based on your temperament is not difficult."

There’s no denying it; Li Du is indeed an observant person. His thoughts aligned with Wang Zhan’s, and what Wang Zhan feared most was Song Tianyang’s attack. With Song Tianyang’s strength, if a countermeasure cannot be found, everyone inside Tian Pavilion will suffer.

This encounter with Luo Junce showed Wang Zhan that the destructive power unleashed by battles between peak experts is entirely beyond what ordinary people can withstand.

So if the fight continues, those inside Tian Pavilion will inevitably suffer.

Thinking of these things, Wang Zhan had actually made up his mind.

But he had not expressed his intentions to the others.

Because once his thoughts were known to others, things would certainly become more complicated, leading to many situations in the future...

After pausing for a moment, Wang Zhan continued, "Since you’ve figured it out, I no longer need to hide anything from you. I just hope you won’t tell everyone about this ordeal. Let me spend time with everyone during this period, and this isn’t the only solution; if I can further improve the overall strength of myself and the Sword Spirit, perhaps even facing Song Tianyang, I may have a fighting chance."

"So unless it’s absolutely necessary, it’s best not to tell everyone this result."

"Or perhaps there might be a turning point?"

Li Du hesitated for a moment, ultimately nodding his head.

But his heart was full of emotion.

During this time, he’s remained inside Tian Pavilion, previously not understanding why everyone revolved around Wang Zhan, considering he wasn’t the most powerful inside Tian Pavilion.

Initially, Feng Tianci was above Wang Zhan, and now there’s the Sword Spirit, far beyond Wang Zhan’s reach. But even with both their formidable powers, they willingly stay by Wang Zhan’s side.

Perhaps the most crucial reason is Wang Zhan’s unique charm.

Thinking of these things, Li Du walked up beside Wang Zhan, patted his shoulder, and continued, "Don’t worry, if it really comes to that point, I’ll definitely stand by your side and face Song Tianyang together. I also want to see just what capabilities Song Tianyang possesses..."

Wang Zhan nodded, then didn’t continue speaking.

Soon, the two had already parted ways.

And Wang Zhan immediately headed for the back mountain.

He must do his utmost to improve his cultivation at this time. Time cannot be wasted.

Otherwise, he would become an easy target.

Thinking of this, Wang Zhan immediately quickened his pace.

But upon reaching the cave at the back mountain, he found that someone had arrived before him.

Seeing the person standing not far away, Wang Zhan’s lips curled into a subtle smile. He crossed his arms, gazing at the person for a long while, before shaking his head and speaking, "I thought you’d be at your master’s side. Why have you suddenly come to me?"

Ha...

Zuo Linglong, sitting to the side, crossed his arms looking at Wang Zhan, sighed helplessly, and then spoke to himself, "Everyone knows that your strength has surpassed my master’s. Why should I remain by my master’s side?"

"Initially, I stuck to my master because his power exceeded yours. You can teach me alchemy methods, while my master taught me some techniques. Thus, both of you have great importance to me."

"But now that your strength far surpasses my master’s, and you can still teach me alchemy methods, I naturally no longer need to stay by my master’s side. It’s enough to revolve around you."

Wang Zhan smiled helplessly, but he knew well that Zuo Linglong was merely joking. After all, Zuo Linglong is definitely not an ungrateful person, and he’s likely here just to accompany him.

Wang Zhan couldn’t help but feel touched.

However, Wang Zhan wasn’t the sentimental type. As he sat down, his gaze returned to Zuo Linglong, and he asked once more, "All this time, I haven’t been by your side to urge you on. I’m quite curious to know just how far you’ve advanced in strength?"

"But as far as I know, your alchemy skills seem to have improved significantly."

Zuo Linglong didn’t hold back at all, nor was he overly modest, and he simply crossed his arms and said, "Of course. During this period, I’ve been extremely diligent, aiming to quickly be on the same level as you all, so naturally, I wouldn’t neglect alchemy, nor would I neglect cultivation."

Initially, he didn’t want to cultivate profound techniques because Wang Zhan had mentioned his high achievement in alchemy. If properly nurtured, he would surely become a master alchemist in the future.

Then, all he would need to do is refine some elixirs and many experts would surround him.

So, why would he need to work so hard?

Wang Zhan smiled with satisfaction, casting a few more glances at Zuo Linglong before continuing, "At this pace of cultivation, it shouldn’t be long before you become an expert yourself. By then, you’ll be a core strength inside the Sky Pavilion."

"As long as I can help Master, that’s enough..."

Zuo Linglong said with a smile.

But Wang Zhan didn’t pay further attention to her. In the blink of an eye, he closed his eyes gently and continued to cultivate.

There was a certain gap between him and the Sword Spirit. The Sword Spirit could enter a state of meditation anywhere, but Wang Zhan couldn’t do that, so he could only choose some quiet places and try his best to enhance his cultivation.

Thus, he picked the back mountain.

After all, despite many people inside the Sky Pavilion, they wouldn’t come to the back mountain immediately. Besides, everyone knew Wang Zhan was in seclusion here, and unless absolutely necessary, they wouldn’t disturb him.

In the blink of an eye.

A month had passed.

During this month, Wang Zhan stayed on the back mountain and didn’t appear in front of anyone.

However, the order inside the Sky Pavilion remained unchanged because everyone knew Wang Zhan had returned to the Sky Pavilion.

Currently, he’s merely strengthening himself, and if they appeared beside him now, it would surely bring trouble to Wang Zhan, so no one dared to disturb him on the back mountain.

Suddenly, Wang Zhan slowly opened his tightly shut eyes, his complexion gradually becoming much rosier.

During this month, although Zuo Linglong stayed by Wang Zhan’s side, he didn’t waste time. Not only did he improve his alchemy skills daily, but he also found time to enhance his cultivation.

Efforts never betray, and his cultivation progress was fast-paced.

Seeing Wang Zhan open his eyes, the Sword Spirit quickly approached him and eagerly asked, "Master, have you truly awakened? It seems your strength must have recovered, right?"

"Does this mean we no longer need to stay here?"

In that instant, a faint smile appeared on Zuo Linglong’s lips.

During these days, although he stayed by Wang Zhan’s side, constantly enhancing his cultivation, the truth is, life here was indeed quite boring...

But having chosen to protect Wang Zhan, he naturally couldn’t leave rashly before Wang Zhan awakened, as doing so could bring much trouble.

In the blink of an eye, Wang Zhan smiled and walked to his side, patting his shoulder before saying, "Rest assured, your mission is now complete. If you don’t wish to stay here any longer, then head down the mountain first."

"What about you?"

Zuo Linglong quickly asked.

Wang Zhan looked at the distance, his gaze becoming more serious. In reality, he could remain in this meditative state, because under such a Spirit Void state, his cultivation progress was extremely rapid.

But all of this was disrupted by the appearance of a formidable energy.

Thus, he was suddenly pulled out from this state.
