115: Chapter 115: Terrifying Upgrade Speed

Another unknown area in the Hidden Mist Forest.

In the same tall forest, Gu Yue was carefully hiding alone in the bushes to conceal herself.

At this moment, she was somewhat disheveled; her originally clean and tidy Bronze Rank true spirit artifact was now stained with traces of foul-smelling monster blood.

Her fair and beautiful face was also covered in dirt, completely obscuring her pretty features.

Gu Yue's Fate's Guidance (Talent) seemed exaggerated and was exaggerated in use, but this Talent ability offered no combat power boost. As a completely blank slate, she would have been fine against a single monster of the same Rank.

However, in this Void Realm Instance of the Hidden Mist Forest, monsters often appeared in groups, and one wrong move could trigger a whole horde.

Her current disheveled state was due to underestimating the monsters here at the beginning, accidentally encountering more than a dozen of them.

Fortunately, she had several true spirit artifacts on her, which allowed her to kill those monsters and then hide herself, using ambush tactics to hunt them.

After half an hour, she had only gained two percent of the energy. This meant twenty percent in a day, which was the speed of an ordinary True Spirit Professional, basically gaining one Rank every five days.

This speed was already very impressive. One must know that with her current Bronze Tenth Level, to gain so much energy in a day, she would at least need to rely on Gold Rank monster ingredients.

"I wonder how Fang Yuan is doing. Is he progressing smoothly..."

After experiencing the hardship of leveling up by fighting monsters, Gu Yue suddenly thought of her leveling companion.

Having truly experienced the difficulty of leveling, she increasingly realized Fang Yuan's importance. At this moment, she had begun to secretly cheer him on in her heart.

While cheering on her leveling companion, Gu Yue did not give up on leveling herself by fighting monsters.

Although there was a high probability that it would be a futile effort, she couldn't bring herself to just lie flat and level up passively.

With overly comfortable leveling, one's own strength would always lag behind True Spirit Professionals of the same Rank. No matter what, she had some ambitions.

At the very least, she wanted to achieve the level of a normal True Spirit Professional. This was no small challenge for Gu Yue, whose True Spirit Talent offered no amplification.

After all, other True Spirit Professionals had corresponding True Spirit Talent amplifications. It wouldn't be easy for her, a blank slate, to possess the same strength as other Bronze Rank Talent users.

Poof!!

Just as Gu Yue was cautiously and warily exploring, searching for a relatively small group of monsters to attack, a strange sensation surged from within her body to her mind.

By the time she reacted, she found that she had already stepped onto the threshold of a Silver Rank True Spirit Professional.

"...!"

At this moment, Gu Yue, who had just ignited her fighting spirit, suddenly had the thought of just giving up and lying flat.

If she remembered correctly, Fang Yuan had only just leveled up not long ago, and according to his progress, he should only be at a little over ten percent.

Now, after only half an hour in the Hidden Mist Forest, he had already accumulated over eighty percent of the energy. Judging by her own monster-killing gains, Fang Yuan must have killed at least two thousand monsters in this short amount of time.

As for herself, despite working so hard to kill monsters, she had only killed a few dozen in half an hour.

The disparity was too great, and some strange thoughts arose in her mind.

"Forget it, I'll just hone my combat skills here."

After this experience, Gu Yue completely gave up on the idea of leveling up by grinding monsters herself. Without this concern, her purpose for entering the Void Realm Instance completely shifted to a place for honing her combat skills.

Once she had come to terms with it, Gu Yue was no longer as cautious as before. As soon as she saw a monster, she would invariably charge forward and beat them up.

After reaching Silver Rank One, her strength already far surpassed the monsters here. Silver versus Bronze was an absolutecrush.

In the other two locations, Lin Zhizhi's performance was much better than Gu Yue's.

The short-haired girl, wielding a long saber, had a smile on her face. According to her current progress, she would reach Bronze Rank Seven today.

Li Xuefei, also in a forest, with her Gold Rank Talent, could be said to be sweeping through everything, at about one-third to one-fourth the speed of Fang Yuan.

The Gold Rank Talent, Ice Spirit, was extremely powerful, possessing the full might of Myriad Laws Return to Origin releasing a single elemental energy.

The reason her speed was only one-third to one-fourth of Fang Yuan's was that she didn't have his perpetual motion-like ability.

Therefore, she had to conserve energy consumption, which greatly slowed down her speed.

However, this speed was already astonishing. At this rate, she would only need a little over two hours to level up.

In one day, she would definitely reach Bronze Tenth Level, and in another day, she would be Silver Rank.

"This is the Void Realm Instance..."

Having personally experienced this airplane-like leveling speed, Li Xuefei could no longer go back to the previous method of leveling up by eating monster ingredients... Returning to Fang Yuan, who had successfully leveled up to Silver Rank, he continued to sweep through everything, advancing south.

Wherever he passed, all the monsters attracted were blasted into dust by the various elemental energies of Myriad Laws Return to Origin.

After six hours, Fang Yuan didn't know how far he had advanced. Behind him was a ruin more than twenty meters wide, stretching endlessly.

"How big is this Hidden Mist Forest? I've been walking for several hours, and I still haven't reached the Silver Rank True Spirit Professional's grinding area, nor have I encountered anyone."

Fang Yuan looked back at the continuous monster corpses stretching for who knows how many kilometers behind him. He didn't know if it was his bad luck or if the Hidden Mist Forest was too large, but he hadn't encountered anyone for so long.
