Chapter 33 · Volume 1

A Triple Blessing

Under Avia's astonished gaze, the light radiating from Tyr's body grew deeper and deeper.
Greenish-blue and brilliant gold interplayed, forming a spherical barrier with the properties of Taiji that enveloped Tyr, making him look divine.
At this moment, the greenish-blue Magic Circle inside Tyr's body gradually disintegrated, blending and rotating with the golden Holy Power, ultimately merging into a Taiji diagram.
However, the background of this Taiji diagram was not the traditional black and white, but rather used greenish-blue and brilliant gold as its base colors.
The moment the Taiji diagram formed, Tyr could see through internal inspection that it began to spin rapidly. The two dots in the Taiji diagram gradually became eight, then six, then four, and then six again.
However, unlike the previous six dots, which were of the same color—either all greenish-blue or all brilliant gold—this time, they were half greenish-blue and half brilliant gold.
Until finally, the magic power of both colors began to flash in unison, yin and yang generating each other.
At the same time, the external magic power began to flow frantically into Tyr's body.
Finally, when the reserves of the two magic powers in Tyr's body reached their limit, a second Taiji diagram began to emerge from the original one, the two diagrams crossing each other in a perpendicular intersection.
At this moment, Tyr's realm broke through to the Second Circle.
With the breakthrough complete, the rotation speed of the Taiji diagram at Tyr's heart slowly wound down.
Simultaneously, the light on the outside of Tyr's body also began to gradually fade, until it was completely drawn back into his body.
When Tyr stopped cultivating, to his surprise, the Taiji diagram at his heart did not remain still like his previous Magic Circle. Instead, it continued to rotate slowly.
The surrounding magic power continued to surge into his body. Although this speed was not even a tenth of his normal active cultivation, it still brought Tyr great joy.
This was equivalent to adding an idle-farming feature to his body, allowing him to cultivate at all times.
In his past life, legends said that innate divine beings like dragons, phoenixes, and qilin had their cultivation grow constantly even while eating, drinking, and sleeping. Now, things were finally looking up for him too.
“Congratulations, Young Master, on achieving this unprecedented feat.”
Avia did not know of the changes inside Tyr's body. Seeing his delighted expression, she assumed he was simply happy about being able to cultivate two types of magic power simultaneously.
At this moment, her heart was filled with shock. Since ancient times, how many favored children of heaven had wanted to achieve the feat of cultivating multiple types of magic power?
Yet they had all ultimately failed. At best, their cultivation realms were damaged; at worst, their magic power went wild, causing a backlash that killed them.
Yet such a grand feat had actually been accomplished today by an eight-year-old child.
At this moment, Avia even wondered if she was dreaming.
If it weren't for the fact that a transcendent's cultivation must never be disturbed, she would have stepped in to stop Tyr earlier.
“This feeling... isn't bad.”
Sensing the magic power inside his body, Tyr could clearly feel that in addition to his previous extremely sharp magic power, a very gentle magic power had also appeared.
“Avia, go prepare dinner.”
“Yes, Young Master.”
...
The next day, Tyr arrived at the training field. After cultivating for less than ten minutes, he opened his eyes in astonishment.
Just now, his Sword Qi Body Tempering Technique had broken through to the second layer.
Ed, who had been watching Tyr from the side, naturally noticed this. Early this morning, he had already noticed that Tyr's magic power realm had advanced to the Second Circle.
He hadn't expected that so soon, Tyr's physical realm would also break through to the second layer, making him the first among this batch of reserves to cultivate the Sword Qi Body Tempering Technique to the second layer.
If Tyr's rapid advancement in magic power could be explained away by the excuse that Marquis Lanier had started teaching him magic power cultivation long ago, his cultivation of the Sword Qi Body Tempering Technique was something Ed had witnessed from scratch.
Ed was absolutely certain that when he first met Tyr that day, Tyr's body had definitely never practiced any technique to strengthen the physical body.
This was simply too fast. According to Ed's estimations, the fastest among this batch to break through to the second layer of the Sword Qi Body Tempering Technique should have taken at least another month.
The most terrifying part was that Tyr wasn't even the first to arrive among this batch of reserves, which meant he had spent less than a month to cultivate the Sword Qi Body Tempering Technique to the second layer.
Previously, Tyr had successfully circulated the Sword Qi Body Tempering Technique on his very first attempt, setting a new record in the Sword Prison.
Today, Tyr had once again broken the record for the fastest breakthrough of the Sword Qi Body Tempering Technique in the Sword Prison.
This child was truly monstrous.
As an instructor of the Sword Prison, Ed had seen many geniuses, but Tyr truly shattered his understanding of the world time and time again.
Just last night, his magic power realm had broken through to the Second Circle, and he had even achieved the simultaneous cultivation of both divine and magic powers. This morning, he had made another breakthrough in the Sword Qi Body Tempering Technique, successfully reaching the second layer. It was truly a triple blessing.
After a brief moment of joy, Tyr entered his cultivation once more. After all, this was no place to relax.
Seeing Tyr's composed demeanor, Ed nodded in satisfaction.
If Tyr knew what Ed was thinking, he would surely smile bitterly and say, “The surrounding sword qi scrapes against the skin so painfully, I have no choice but to stay composed.”
After his magic power realm advanced yesterday, Tyr was able to connect more acupoints. Combined with the recent breakthrough in his physical realm, his body's tolerance had also increased, causing his speed in cultivating the Sword Qi Body Tempering Technique to accelerate significantly.
By the time he finished his morning cultivation and stood up, Silas had only just pushed open the training field's doors and walked in.
Behind him followed Letitia and Barry.
Under the astonished gazes of the trio, Tyr bid farewell to Ed, turned, and walked out of the training field.
“How is he... so fast?”
The eyes of Silas and the other two widened. They knew very well that for the morning cultivation, one could only leave after the medicinal efficacy in their body was almost entirely depleted.
Ed was not someone to be trifled with; any attempt to slack off would not slip past him.
Under their stunned gazes, Tyr left the training field.
After Tyr left, Silas approached Ed.
Instead of immediately starting his cultivation, he looked up at Ed. “Instructor Ed, I want to know how Tyr manages to finish absorbing the medicinal efficacy of the medicinal bath so much earlier than us every day.”
Because previously when Tyr left the training field, Silas and the others were still in the middle of their cultivation, they didn't know when Tyr left. Naturally, they didn't know that Tyr's progress while cultivating in the training field was also extremely fast.
They only knew that Tyr absorbed the medicine in the medicinal bathhouse much faster than they did every day.
