468: Chapter 472 Terrifying Talent

"Lu Chen, do you think... I can really awaken a Hunter Talent?"

There was a hint of nervousness in her voice.

Her father's face involuntarily surfaced in her mind—back then, to curry favor with her brother who had awakened as a Hunter, her father had actually tried to push her into a fiery pit.

Lu Chen raised his hand and rubbed her hair, comforting her softly.

"Don't worry. I believe you definitely can. Even if you don't succeed, I will make you strong enough—so strong that no one will ever be able to bully you again."

Hearing those words.

A warm current instantly surged into Nianwei's heart.

"Thank you."

She murmured softly.

Lu Chen just smiled, but he couldn't help feeling a bit worried.

If Nianwei failed to awaken a Hunter Talent, it would be no easy feat for her to become strong, even if she practiced external Cultivation Techniques.

"Let's wait and see. But I have a feeling she definitely can. Nianwei's background is by no means simple; every one of her Soul fragments contains the potential to make her a Prodigy."

Lu Chen thought to himself; this was his intuition, a strong intuition.

"To undergo Talent Awakening, you need to pay fifty thousand gold coins. After paying, please fill out this form."

The Guild reception desk.

A burly man was speaking loudly to the crowd waiting in line.

The line was very long, and Lu Chen joined it.

Nianwei sat on a waiting chair nearby.

Waiting patiently.

"The Awakening fee is actually so high; it seems only the wealthy can afford it."

A young man in line ahead of Lu Chen couldn't help but mutter under his breath.

Soon, it was Lu Chen's turn in line, and he stepped forward to fill out the form.

He didn't know Nianwei's full name.

Nor did he intentionally ask.

So.

He filled in the surname of the other Nianwei on the form—Luo Nianwei.

After filling out the form, Lu Chen returned to Nianwei's side.

"Our number is 38. Each person's Awakening process takes about ten minutes, so by calculation, we still have to wait six hours for our turn. Let's go outside first. You need to do some warm-up training before the Awakening."

A person's Talent is innate.

But the Rank of the Talent is not fixed.

It depends on a person's Bloodline, Physique, and even luck.

Therefore, Lu Chen planned to give Nianwei a six-hour special training session.

To bring her physical state to its Peak, making it possible to awaken a more powerful Talent.

The Talents in this world are divided into nine Ranks.

Basic Talent;

Intermediate Talent;

Advanced Talent;

Top-tier Talent;

Legendary Talent;

Epic Talent;

Mythical Talent;

Supreme Talent;

Ultimate Talent

The higher the Talent Rank, the greater the potential.

The two arrived at a nearby park.

Lu Chen began to teach Nianwei the Light Element Breathing Technique.

He could feel that the Nianwei before him possessed a light element affinity Physique.

"Sit here and close your eyes. Then, following the Breathing Technique's mantra, adjust your breath and take deep breaths. Try a few more times—anywhere from ten to a hundred times—and you'll eventually succeed."

Nianwei didn't have the slightest doubt.

For some reason, she was full of trust in the man before her.

She knew he would never harm her.

So, Nianwei obediently did as told, trying to adjust her breathing according to the mantra.

Incredibly.

Her body actually followed the rhythm of the breathing instantly.

A warm current flowed through her body.

She clearly felt herself becoming stronger.

Lu Chen was also surprised—Nianwei had actually succeeded on her first try!

"Well done. Next, maintain this state and continue to Cultivate for an hour."

Lu Chen observed intently from the side.

The rhythm of the Breathing Technique was gradually synchronizing with Nianwei's body, and the effect was surprisingly good.

Every cell in her body was becoming increasingly powerful.

Lu Chen reached out his hand, gently pressing it against her back, and began to transfer pure energy into her.

Helping her become stronger this way was tens of millions of times faster than normal Cultivation.

Furthermore, Lu Chen's energy was pure and flawless, and would not cause any side effects to her body.

An hour later.

Every cell in Nianwei's body had been nourished by the energy to a state of saturation.

She slowly opened her eyes.

"Lu Chen, I feel... I'm incredibly strong right now!"

Lu Chen handed her a sword.

"Do you want to try out this newly acquired power? Come, attack me using the Moves from the Breathing Technique."

Nianwei instinctively took the sword.

Her reaction was startlingly fast.

"Okay!"

Lu Chen also took out a sword and held it in his hand.

Actual combat is the fastest way to digest energy; once this battle ends, he would help her undergo another Energy Empowerment.

Out of the six hours, deducting the Cultivation just now, five hours and fifty minutes remained.

It was enough for her to completely digest this energy.

Nianwei used Light Breathing, First Form, and attacked Lu Chen.

Lu Chen only defended and did not attack, calmly dealing with her offensive.

Nianwei's speed was as fast as lightning, launching constant attacks from all directions.

Every Move was skilled and experienced, as if she were a battle-hardened Martial Artist.

The one-hour battle ended.

Lu Chen called a halt.

"Alright, next we will perform the second Energy Empowerment."

Nianwei nodded and sat cross-legged again.

Five hours passed in the blink of an eye.

Only one hour remained before Nianwei's Awakening ceremony.

Now, she had become strong to a terrifying degree, her strength comparable to Blue Star's B-Rank.
