As she walked ahead of them, she said, "Thank you for doing this for . If not for your help, I wouldn't be making this attempt at all."
Arthur replied, "You're welco. But you deserved my help. You have done a lot for over the years, so this is what I should do."
Roar interjected and asked with a hidden glint in his eyes, "Are those hateful deer still around? I an those stubborn ones who are determined to always have their revenge."
This question made Arthur glance at him and ask, "Why are you asking?"
Roar lied, "Nothing. I just wanted to know if I should avoid where they live."
Arthur said, "Right."
He didn't believe Roar. But he didn't care if Roar was lying or not.
He said, "You will pay for whatever you kill or destroy."
Roar perked up after hearing that. He said, "I have a lot of shining things. That ans I will be able to kill a lot."
Arthur ignored him and went into the house with Lady Vena. She didn't waste ti at all. She sat down to ditate to calm her nerves. Then she began the process of breaking through to the third mortal coil.
anwhile, Arthur set up an array around her. It was an array to block the perception of divine sense, but it was also strong enough to resist the attack of a peak third mortal coil cultivator.
He didn't set up a stronger array because it would be too expensive and because it wasn't needed. It was unlikely that a golden core cultivator would co to interrupt her breakthrough. But even if one did, he was here to protect her.
The array was two-layered. There was one layer surrounding Lady Vena and another layer surrounding the house. Arthur and Roar stood between the two layers and watched her on the side.
Roar was absent-minded and was thinking about chasing the deer. He could even picture himself doing it, and what he imagined caused his mouth to drool with saliva.
Arthur, on the other hand, was very focused on Lady Vena. There was very little that he could do if sothing went wrong, but he was paying attention either way.
He was also thinking about her dedication to cultivation. After seeing Roar lose his motivation for cultivation and seeing Greta wither away due to old age, not only did his motivation for cultivation increase, but he also gained a new appreciation for Lady Vena's dedication to cultivation.
As he thought about everything Lady Vena did to advance and grow stronger, he couldn't help but admire her. Unlike him, she didn't have the support of her mother or father. Her family even wanted her to be used as a cauldron to raise a blood child.
Lady Vena ran away from ho with Brooks. Then she seduced a rich young noble who was downcast and made him impregnate her. And even though her talent for body cultivation was bad, and there was no suitable environnt for her to utilize her talent for energy cultivation, she still didn't give up cultivating.
She worked hard for many years and didn't stop. Even when she grew past her pri age to advance, she continued to do her best. Now all of her hard work is about to pay off.
She has reached the peak of the second mortal coil, and her investnt in her son has paid off. So even though her life force was waning, she had the resources needed to maintain it and keep herself alive during the process.
The process of her advancent took more than a day, but it went smoothly. Her life seed absorbed most of her internal organs and then split into two. This indicated that she had successfully established her foundation, so he removed the arrays.
When she opened her eyes, they were bright and hopeful for the future. Her eyes were not glowing because she didn't cultivate the path of energy refining, but it was full of the light of life.
Arthur said, "Congratulations on your advancent."
She looked at him for a while and said, "You now look stronger than before. It seems I've changed a lot."
He nodded and said, "Yes. You can perceive more now. Your mind should be strong enough to push and pull on mana now, so you should be able to fly."
She tried to fly, but it wasn't easy. She kept flailing and floundering in the air.
After trying many tis and failing many tis, she said, "I'll try again later."
He said in encouragent, "It takes so ti to get used to."
It didn't take him long to get used to flying because he cultivated the path of energy refining and was used to manipulating mana with his mind to create spells.
His mind was also many tis stronger than his peers due to the Mountain Sitting Dao. But he didn't need to show off to his mother, so he didn't ntion his experience with learning how to fly.
But even though he didn't say anything, his mother knew that he was not ordinary. The fact that he had advanced to the fourth mortal coil at an age when the geniuses of cultivation families are advancing to the third mortal coil is an indication that he is out of the league of soone who couldn't compare to the geniuses of the cultivation families in terms of cultivation speed.
When she rembered what she had just gone through to advance to the third mortal coil and thought about how Arthur had done so nine tis in a row and successfully advanced to the fourth mortal coil in just 11 years, she realized that she couldn't even begin to understand the gap between them.
She could only sigh and ask, "Do you think I can ever advance to the fourth mortal coil?"
He said, "I don't know. But I know that if it is possible for you to reach the fourth mortal coil, it will be very very difficult to achieve."
