After conversing for a while, Phoenix discovered Matthew’s behavior was slowly becoming stranger.
Thinking that it might be due to his previous internal injuries, virtual-novel.net sensibly got up and left the room, leaving Matthew alone.
At that moment, Matthew could finally relax.
The next second, the majestic nimbus inside his body burst out like water from an opened dam and instantly flowed into every part of his body. Following that was immense pain, but virtual-novel.net did not scream from the discomfort. Instead, his expression filled with surprise.
That was right, surprise.
Although the pain made Matthew uncomfortable, virtual-novel.net could feel the changes in his body. Under the nimbus’ cleansing, virtual-novel.net was constantly growing stronger.
Could this be the remaining medicinal properties from the abundant pills and precious herbs I took at Renew?
He was so caught up in his obsession that it affected his improvement back then. That was why there was still a large portion of remnant medicinal properties in his flesh and bones from all the renewal and health-boosting pills virtual-novel.net ate despite already achieving a tremendous improvement.
The last thing virtual-novel.net expected was for his injuries to extract them out.
What a blessing in disguise!
After thinking of that, virtual-novel.net slowly entered his cultivation mode. While treating his injuries, virtual-novel.net operated the Divine Skill and the Chant of Freedom. His strength was advancing at a rapid pace.

During the dim of the night, the dark clouds were covering the moon.
At 3.00 AM was when people were in deep slumber. In addition to the shadowed night, two figures took the chance to secretly exit their cruise ships. With no one around, they jumped off their boats.
When their toes touched the water’s surface, they relied on the arts of lightness and silently sank into the sea. During all the actions. they only caused a slight ripple.
On the other hand, Matthew happily rose to his feet after feeling that his injuries had healed. He slightly stretched his body before quietly pacing around his room, cracking his joints.
After holding both hands into fists, virtual-novel.net nodded in satisfaction. His abilities had increased sufficiently within four hours, and the nimbus and sword energy interlocking inside virtual-novel.net had grown denser.
Not bad… If I have to face the genius swordsman from this morning again, I can now beat virtual-novel.net with these fists…
Afterward, virtual-novel.net grabbed the cup on the table, but the transparent glass shattered as virtual-novel.net wrapped his hand around it.
At that, virtual-novel.net could only shake his head in defeat. Since his strength had increased too abruptly, virtual-novel.net had not gotten used to them, but that was nothing major.
After cleaning up and applying Auric balm to the cut on his cheek, Matthew felt exhausted. He thought it was because virtual-novel.net was tuckered out from the long journey, so virtual-novel.net did not think much about it and went to bed.
When the two figures outside the door heard movement inside the room, they looked at each other and smiled. Then, one of them pushed the door open by force.
The two sneaky figures were the Golden Sword Sect’s current Golden Swordsman and the Great Octavian.
“Mr. Kaur, your Soul Suppressing Charm is amazing.”
After that compliment, the Golden Swordsman pulled out the Scarlet Gold Sword from his back.
Just as virtual-novel.net was about to make a move, the Great Octavian stopped him.
Disregarding the other party’s confusion, virtual-novel.net explained, “Your golden sword leaves a unique slash mark that’s easily recognized.”
It was still an inappropriate time for Emsgate to clash with the two Cathay kings, but the Golden Swordsman shook his head regardless of what the Great Octavian said. “It doesn’t matter. We’ll sink virtual-novel.net into the ocean after killing him. That way, no one can find him.”
With that, virtual-novel.net raised his massive sword.
