Chapter 37 Pheonix Empress

Half a month Later,

Wang Chen sat in his meditation chamber, focusing his mind and channeling his Qi through his meridians.

As he meditated, he felt a familiar energy surge within him, and he knew that he was on the verge of a breakthrough.

Suddenly, there was a loud crackling sound, and Wang Chen's body was surrounded by a blinding light.

His aura expanded rapidly, and he felt his Cultivation realm grow from the sixth stage Enlightenment Realm. But as he opened his eyes, he realized that he had broken through not one, but three minor realms directly.

However, Wang Chen wasn't surprised by his breakthrough. Instead, he was disappointed.

Wang Chen let out a deep sigh and muttered to himself, "This is getting more difficult every time. The devouring Essence fetus is getting stronger, and it's becoming harder to balance its hunger with my Cultivation progress."

Ever since he obtained the devouring corrupted divine body, his Cultivation speed had increased dramatically, but the devouring Essence fetus also absorbed more spiritual energy from him.

As a result, he couldn't get the desired result, and it felt like he was putting in twice the effort for half the result.

Although he had broken through to the 9th stage Enlightenment Realm from the 6th stage, he knew that he had to find a way to balance the devouring Essence fetus's hunger and his own Cultivation progress.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door of his meditation chamber. Wang Chen's disciple, Li Mei, entered and exclaimed, "Master, what happened? I heard a loud noise, and your aura is different now."

Wang Chen smiled wryly and said, "I broke through to the 9th stage Enlightenment Realm, but it's not as satisfying as I hoped it would be."

Li Mei looked confused and asked, "Why not? Isn't breaking through to a higher realm always a good thing?"

"Yes, but my Cultivation progress has been different lately. It's like I'm putting in more effort but getting fewer results." Wang Chen explained.

Li Mei listened intently to Wang Chen's explanation, her expression concerned. "I see. Is there anything I can do to help, master?" she asked.

Wang Chen shook his head and said, "No, it's something I have to figure out myself. But thank you for your concern, Li Mei."



He continued "By the way, you have broken through to the foundation building realm already."

"Actually, master, the same lady came to me again in a dream. I couldn't see her face, but I could hear her voice. She told me what to do, and when I woke up today, I was already at the foundation building realm." Li Mei explained with a serious expression.

It was not the first time that she had experienced this type of dream. As she became a Cultivator, she would occasionally have these dreams at night. At first, she thought they were nothing, but when the same dream came again, she began to feel like a ghost was haunting her at night. But as she had the dream again, she decided to follow the lady's instructions and do what she was told. To her surprise, she found that every time she woke up, her Cultivation had increased a bit.





'Let's see her status,' Wang Chen said. He had not only been Cultivating these past few days, but he had also been going to crowded places where he could find more people and intercept their opportunities.

Wang Chen had intercepted many opportunities, but some of them were not useful to him, so he gave them to Li Mei to gain her favorability.

He had already accumulated over one third of Destiny Points that he lost to save his life.

"System show me Li Mei status," Wang Chen said.

'Hmm, so she is a pheonix empress.

Looks like she hasn't awakened her body and didn't get the complete inheritance yet.' Wang thought to himself as he didn't find it surprising.

As Wang Chen had read numerous novels, he knew that protagonists always attracted conflict in the story. So, he was certain that there would be a plot in which some famous young master would come and develop feelings for the heroine. Eventually, the protagonist would have to try to save her, and he would be hunted down by the young master's family.

When the protagonist became strong enough, he would destroy the entire family and finally meet the heroine.

But as he considered this potential plot, he realized that it was too much of a hassle. He just wanted to live a life of relaxation, and if he had to become a villain for it, Wang Chen didn't mind.

'Ah, speaking of villains, I remember it should be around this time. Seems like I should go ahead of him and make some preparations for my plans,' Wang Chen thought as he stood up.

"Don't worry, Li Mei. It should be something good that you are receiving," Wang Chen reassured her.

Li Mei nodded, her expression still uncertain. "I hope so, Master."

Wang Chen patted her shoulder reassuringly. "Don't worry too much about it. Just focus on your cultivation and trust in the process. I have a feeling that something great awaits you."

Li Mei smiled gratefully at him. "Thank you, Master. I will do my best."

As Wang Chen prepared to leave, Li Mei hesitated for a moment before speaking up. "Master, may I ask where you are going?"

Wang Chen paused, turning back to face her. "I'm going to make some preparations for a plan. You don't need to worry about it."

Li Mei's brow furrowed slightly. "A plan? What kind of plan?"

Wang Chen grinned, enjoying the mystery of it all. "Oh, just a little something to stir up some trouble. Don't worry about it, Li Mei. You just focus on your cultivation and leave the rest to me."

With that, he turned and strode out of the room, leaving Li Mei to wonder just what kind of trouble her master was getting himself into.
