196: If you have no clue about the breakthrough, then look for inspiration

“Han Lie has reached Sixth Rank!!”

The news spread like a virus, but it wasn't as shocking as imagined; all the spectators had already developed some psychological anticipation for this matter after days of shock.

Even if Han Lie reached Sixth Rank!!

According to his metrics, it was only natural.

Even if the most outstanding of other prodigies had barely reached Fourth Rank!!

Even if the purpose of the current layer of the Town Boundary Tower should be to temper the Dao hearts of the prodigies, not to aid cultivation!!

Even if Han Lie had just turned eighteen and had already achieved martial arts goals that others would find difficult to reach in a lifetime...

Even if this was unreasonable.

But thinking that it was Han Lie, it became understandable.

“Sixth Rank…”

For races like the God-Demon Clan, countless races that had not made a decision before finally let their hanging hearts completely die. The current result showed that there was no so-called dark manipulation at all.

Han Lie’s increase in strength was genuine.

And the reason why his breakthrough was later than their expectations was even easier to understand: it wasn't that their calculated strength increase value was wrong.

It was that Han Lie himself required more accumulation to break through than other humans, which was one of the reasons why he was so strong.

Therefore,

The hanging hearts of the various races finally died.

Many races began to send friendly signals to the Human Clan, using simple and direct methods, all with similar rhetoric.

“I heard Han Lie particularly likes to eat our local…”

A single sentence initiated communication.

And the Human Clan was naturally delighted; they had always lived in a corner with little external communication. Now, being able to engage in free trade was an excellent thing.

This was something that the entire Blue Star Human Clan had tried to achieve for hundreds of years without success.

Unexpectedly, it was achieved so surprisingly.

Therefore, even before Han Lie returned, his importance in the hearts of the entire Blue Star’s high-level officials increased by three points!!

A series of benefits and treatments go without saying. It could be said that Han Lie was not yet dead, but he had already become a legend of Blue Star!

.............

Meanwhile, in a blink of an eye.

Han Lie had been enjoying his time in Jile Pavilion for over a week, gradually getting used to the life there and the meticulous care of others.

It gave him a feeling of being home.

“Let’s go for a walk!”

Han Lie’s Qi and blood were almost down to 120,000, but he still hadn’t found the feeling of internal-external communication, nor had he found a way to seal himself off. He felt he needed to go out and find some inspiration.

“Going out?”

Ji Nu quickly scurried over, draping clothes over Han Lie, as meticulous as a mature secretary.

“Mm!”

Han Lie nodded slightly, while also asking, “At this time, it should be cultivation time, right?”

“Right!” Ji Nu thought for a moment and replied.

But she wondered in her heart what the young master was asking this for; they didn't have any fixed cultivation time.

When the mood struck, they cultivated.

They cultivated at all times.

Moreover, putting aside Han Lie’s current terrifying cultivation speed, which didn't require deliberate cultivation, just consider their Nu Clan…

They had practically been trained well enough.

Looking at the entire Jile Pavilion that Han Lie owned, with thousands of servants, there was not a single one cultivating. They hadn't returned to the village even during normal cultivation hours.

They were still on standby where they were.

Listening to Han Lie’s arrangements,

Always ready.

Their strength increase metrics had fallen to single digits, but no one cared.

It was the same old saying,

They had practically been trained well enough.

“Young Master, do you want to do something?”

Ji Nu asked thoughtfully, “I’m not being nosy; I want to assign tasks. If you have any needs, we can fulfill them as quickly as possible. If you want to take a walk…”

Hearing this, Han Lie waved his hand, “No walk. I just don’t know my next cultivation goal, so I’m going out to find some inspiration!”

“Understood!”

Ji Nu analyzed his intention, then quickly said to Lü Nu behind her, “Pass down the order: all servants today are to use this time to continue deducing the method for Human Clan Sixth Rank to break through to Seventh Rank. Also, besides us few, no one is allowed to appear before the Young Master. Those who disobey, don’t blame me for disregarding our clan’s kinship!”

“Understood!”

Lü Nu obeyed the order and then disseminated it. She also understood in her heart.

Ji Nu’s words meant, firstly, that she was worried about people appearing and disturbing Han Lie’s thoughts.

Because similar things had indeed happened before, many low-rank Nu Clan members, unable to get close to Han Lie,

Therefore deliberately appeared before him, wanting to gain a sense of presence.

This sounded absurd,

Gaining a sense of presence at the risk of being killed.

What else could it be but idiocy?

But there were many such idiots. Lü Nu even discovered that servants from other Jile Pavilions, who had already won and gained freedom,

Heard Han Lie’s story, saw the terrifying metrics, and were shocked.

Also came to gain a sense of presence.

“Seductive bitches!!!”

Lü Nu knew too well what they were thinking. Temporary freedom could not soothe the sorrow in their hearts; it was a temporary solution but not a fundamental cure.

And Han Lie,

Such terrifying cultivation talent, such an unusual cultivation method, and such powerful strength itself, all made people wonder.

He might truly have a chance to obtain the Town Boundary Tower.

Therefore,

No one in the entire Nu Clan now didn’t know Han Lie. Many had already regarded him as their last resort, as the only way to gain freedom.

And don't think this was an exclusive fantasy of low-level martial artists; on the contrary, the higher-level martial artists, like Ji Xinxiang, who had struggled in the Town Boundary Tower for countless years without success, believed in this even more deeply.

Simply put,

Han Lie was now like the Ginseng Fruit.

He was like Tang Sanzang.

Their countless female demons,

All wanted a taste.

All wanted to climb to a higher branch.

So, Lü Nu understood.

Her sister’s deeper intention was to make those seductive bitches stay far away!!

It was just not explicitly stated,

So, her message became—

“Young Master is going out for a walk to find inspiration for his breakthrough. No unauthorized personnel are to disturb him!”

“Seal off the news, absolutely do not let those seductive bitches find out!”

.................

However, no one could have imagined that,

Han Lie’s so-called search for inspiration, his so-called walk, was to directly come to someone else’s Jile Pavilion. It was currently everyone’s cultivation time.

But,

Han Lie directly knocked on the door.

“Hey, open the door!”

“Water meter check!”
