*Booooom…* A sudden thunderous roar shook Heaven and Earth.
Looking up, they saw the girl standing silently atop the summit of Mount Everest now slowly rising into the air.
Her short hair floated upward at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Even the cuffs of her shirt billowed wildly.
Fierce winds howled. Lightning wove through the sky.
And she stood motionless within a pillar of green light.
However, what truly shocked everyone was the terrifying pace at which her aura was skyrocketing.
*Boooom, boooom, boooom…* Her power swelled again and again, shaking even the clouds above.
“What is this?”
“Why is her aura skyrocketing so quickly?”
“More than that, despite such a rapid rise, her aura doesn’t feel unstable. On the contrary, it’s as deep and stable as if she had gained it over years!?”
“Are you freaking kidding me? Not even if you directly poured energy into someone, it’s not possible!?”
…
Exclamations followed one after another, while countless people’s facial features distorted in shock and astonishment.
It was so shocking that even someone as mighty as Nine Tails and Ling Er had their pupils contract, for Shea’s transformation defied all reason.
Normally, one needed to consume Heaven and Earth Treasures or forcefully infused with energy to see such a spike in strength.
Even then, the cultivation would be unstable, shallow and unrefined.
It would need to be tempered, refined over time.
After all, it was not their own power.
However, now, that common understanding had been shattered, for this girl, despite the explosive rise in her cultivation, was showing no sign of instability. Her aura carried the depth and tempering of years.
Even now, though she had only just reached Tier-4 Intermediate-Stage, her aura was more robust and refined than that of most Intermediate-Stage Tier-4s.
“This can’t be real…” In disbelief, a veteran Tier-4 who had been stuck at that stage for many years had his eyes widened in disbelief.
It had taken him over 60 years to barely reach Intermediate-Stage Tier-4.
And now, in the span of a single breath, a girl he hadn’t even taken seriously had reached the same stage.
Adding more to the terror, her aura was still climbing, as if there was no end in sight.
“This Azure Dragon… is truly terrifying.”
As if noticing something no one else had, Golden Monkey’s alarmed voice suddenly echoed through the grand hall of the Demon Court.
“What’s wrong?”
“What did you see?”
One after another, Ling Er and Nine Tails turned to Golden Monkey.
*Hoooo…* After taking a deep breath to calm his shock, Golden Monkey explained, “Rather than saying he’s boosting the girl’s strength, it’s more accurate to say he’s retrieving her power.”
“Retrieving her power? What do you mean?” Nine Tails was stunned, confused.
[Could it be that this girl has power we haven’t discovered? But even if that were true, it still doesn’t explain the tremendous surge in her cultivation!]
As if sensing her doubt, Golden Monkey explained again, “Look closely. Doesn’t the space around her seem different? As if time itself is accelerating?”
“That is a phenomenon of time dilatation. What Azure Dragon is doing is drawing from the future, channeling the power that this girl would eventually cultivate, and projecting it into the present. Not just her strength, even the future tempering of her state of mind is being transferred back in full… This technique… it’s no different from the work of Gods or Devils…”
Even Golden Monkey’s voice was trembling slightly when he said this.
In the past, although he cared about the Summon the Eternal Dragon event, he still treated it as just that, a game.
However, now, after witnessing the whole incident, he realized that it clearly was not that simple anymore.
Even some Eternals would struggle to achieve this.
To draw from the future, and project into the present, this was already a realm that touched upon the very Principles of Heaven and Earth.
Thus, Shea’s aura was not the least bit unstable, because this power was her to begin with.
Even if it came from her future cultivation, it still belonged to her.
To put it simply: her future self had been pulled into this present era.
That was what made Azure Dragon so truly terrifying.
…
*Booooom…* Her aura surged again and again. In just moments, Shea’s cultivation had already reached Late-Stage Tier-5, an extremely terrifying realm in its own right.
In the entire Demon Court, those who had reached this stage numbered fewer than thirty.
And now, under countless stunned gazes, Shea had leapt two entire tiers in succession, stepping directly into Late-Stage Tier-5.
“Alright… I’ve made you stronger. This is your cultivation from ‘twenty years’ in the future.”
As he said this, Yu Zi Yu’s eyes flickered uncontrollably in surprise.
Twenty years… in just twenty short years, Shea had risen from Tier-3 to Late Tier-5.
Such talent was truly monstrous.
For others, even with twenty years, managing to reach Early Tier-4 from Tier-3 would already be remarkable.
But of course, it was precisely because Yu Zi Yu had seen through her astonishing potential that he chose to borrow Azure Dragon’s power to perform this godly miracle.
To draw from the future, and project into the present.
It may sound simple, but they had cost Yu Zi Yu a full tenth of the great fortune and destiny Azure Dragon had stolen to accomplish.
And all of it just to cultivate a single prodigy for the Demon Court, a prodigy who could one day sweep through the world.
And now… he had succeeded.
*Booooom…* Another thunderous roar shook the world, and the girl slowly opened her eyes.
Her black pupils were deep as a black hole, as if capable of devouring everything… Yet, within them, a trace of time-worn depth appeared.
It was just a few breaths to others, for her, it felt like decades had passed.
And at this moment, feeling her own body…
*Crack…* She lightly clenched her fist, and space itself shattered.
“Not bad…” With a soft note of praise, the girl raised her gaze toward Azure Dragon.
“Thank you.”
“This was your wish to begin with.”
Hearing Azure Dragon’s reply, the girl’s lips curled faintly into a smile.
Others might not know, but how could the one who made the wish not know?
She had made the wish but how it was fulfilled depended on Azure Dragon.
In other words, there were many ways to grow stronger.
However, Azure Dragon chose the most challenging, most defiant path of all, just so her talent would not go to waste… just so she could travel among the stars and become the face of the entire Demon Court.
And all of this was because this mighty and majestic Azure Dragon was also a member of the Demon Court.
He was one of the Three Gods of the Court, the most mysterious of them all: the Dragon Sovereign!
While she was reeling from awe and shock, Shea could not help but recall the words Azure Dragon had left imprinted in her mind, “If you get the chance… seek out the Divine Tree. He’ll tell you where your path lies.”
“The Divine Tree, huh…” Murmuring softly, Shea narrowed her eyes slightly.
