Chapter 445: Chapter 349: Ancient Qi (Part 1)_4

However, the progress of Heavenly Destiny Armor Skill was too fast, held back by his cultivation realm, and it was currently stuck and unable to progress. Moreover, using a divine skill with the power of the Third Great Boundary at the level of the First Great Boundary was somewhat unstable. Naturally, Berry felt all kinds of discomfort, thinking that he had encountered a bottleneck.

Moreover, Owen Bertram made an unexpected discovery – the coldness from the evil energy of the village inside Berry’s body hadn’t increased during this period. It seemed that the pills he had given them last time worked – there was no improvement, but there was also no continued deterioration.

Owen Bertram pondered for a moment and decided to solve Berry’s current problem first. He took out a few spiritual pills and carefully selected one – a tier-2 spiritual pill. Its effect wasn’t the strongest, but it wouldn’t have any side effects.

"Take this pill, and you’ll be able to breakthrough to the Burning Illuminating Realm."

Berry was overjoyed, "It’s that simple?"

Owen Bertram laughed, "Yes, it’s that simple."

Berry took the pill, swallowed it without hesitation, and immediately sat down to meditate — Owen Bertram quietly closed the door behind him and guarded him from outside. Uncle and Robert looked at him, and Owen Bertram nodded, "Don’t worry, I will watch over him, there won’t be any problems."

He took out food and drink from the storage brocade pouch and enjoyed them with Uncle and Master Basil, then easily got them both drunk.

Afterward, Owen Bertram examined the two men’s health with his spiritual energy, and found that their condition was worse than Berry’s, still deteriorating, but seemed to have slowed down.

"The pills should have some effect, but they can only delay, not root out the evil energy."

"And the best effect is on Berry, most likely because he has already embarked on the path of cultivation, making him stronger."

Regardless, seeing some hope gave Owen Bertram a bit of encouragement.

When the sun began to set, Berry successfully achieved the breakthrough and came out of the room with a glowing face. He moved his body while saying to Owen Bertram, "It’s really different, that awkward feeling before is all gone now!"

Owen Bertram asked him to sit down and said, "Stop practicing Heavenly Destiny Armor Skill for a while. The divine skill is too far ahead of your cultivation realm.

I’ll find a new, more suitable technique for you."

At this point, Owen Bertram remembered a detail, "How did you practice the Heavenly Destiny Armor Skill?"

To practice this divine skill, one had to constantly devour various treasures with strong defensive power and refine them into the body. Berry should have eaten Tier-3 Demonic Beast material to be able to practice the Heavenly Destiny Armor Skill to this level, but he couldn’t possibly hunt down a Tier-3 Demonic Beast due to his low cultivation realm.

Berry slapped his thigh and said, "Just one rule – don’t be picky. Since practicing this divine skill, I eat everything I see in and outside the village, even a piece of withered wood or a patch of yellow soil. I would taste it first to see if it has any benefits.

If there’s no progress, that’s fine, but if it’s helpful, I’ll keep eating it. Each time, I ate so much that my belly became round. Then I’d immediately practice the divine skill to digest it and continue eating."

Owen Bertram was speechless. Not being picky and having balanced nutrition made for rapid growth. But it was unclear what exactly Berry had eaten to cultivate the Heavenly Destiny Armor Skill to this level. Owen shook his head and stopped dwelling on the issue.

"Continue taking the same kind of pills as before." He left behind some newly refined spiritual pills and patted his clothes, "I’m leaving, take care of yourselves. I’ll come to see you when I find some new techniques."

"Alright, you’re a big-shot now, you don’t have to think about us all the time. The village is doing much better than before." Berry seemed quite content and grinned as he bade Robert farewell.

When Owen Bertram left the village, he didn’t head towards the Burning Hillock, but instead flew into the sky and found a tall tree in front of the village. He caught a cicada in the treetop, rubbed a spirit seed between his fingers and planted it, then released the cicada before heading to the back of the village.

He still didn’t dare to venture into the domain of the Burning Hillock easily, so he found a big tree on the perimeter and hid among its branches.

The night gradually darkened, and there was silence inside and outside the village. No living being dared to wander around at this time.

The cicada flew higher and higher, and Owen Bertram saw the entire village through its eyes. This was risky, but Owen Bertram was extremely curious: where did the gigantic beasts rushing to the Burning Hillock come from?
