479: Chapter 479 Advancement to the Fifth Rank!

"Please, Xiaoguang, I promise I won't use it myself. I'll only use it for research, okay? You can even have half of the finished product once I'm done."

Amivika shook Xiaoguang's arm, beginning her coaxing offensive.

"Don't you already have the azure sea tide pearl? That should be enough for you."

Xiaoguang was very annoyed. She didn't like Amivika's behavior, but she didn't have a good solution either.

Moreover, the drawbacks of the Mirror Pupil far outweighed the benefits; otherwise, Nie Ning wouldn't have repeatedly warned her not to use it. She didn't want to experience the pain of excising her own spiritual light again.

"It's too slow… I'm not going to use it, really, just study it a little. What's the harm in giving me a little bit?"

Amivika had almost been tricked by Xiaoguang's words. She felt that this little fox had become increasingly vigilant lately.

Under Amivika's pestering, Xiaoguang placed her hand on the pouch at her waist.

Amivika was delighted at the sight. It seemed that acting coquettishly really was the best way to get what she wanted.

With a flip of her hand, Xiaoguang produced several white, glowing beads in her palm.

Seeing that it wasn't the Mirror Pupil, Amivika immediately looked disappointed.

"Thanks, I don't eat candy."

Xiaoguang rolled her eyes and retorted, "These are huiyuan pills I got from my teacher. They can help others comprehend Artistic Conception. The effect is slightly weaker than the Mirror Pupil, but it should be enough for you."

"Your teacher? Didn't you guys part ways last time?"

Amivika took one out to examine it closely, sensing faint, hidden energy fluctuations.

"No, he came back to beg me the next day."

Xiaoguang shook her head and said it as if it were a matter of course.

Hearing this, Amivika raised an eyebrow. Were ninth-tier powerhouses really this shameless now?

If she remembered correctly, that Huiyuan Turtle had told Xiaoguang not to beg him, so he ended up coming back to beg Xiaoguang?

This was possible?

Furthermore, did ninth-tier Huiyuan Turtles have such miraculous properties that they could actually help others comprehend Artistic Conception?

"Do you want it or not?"

Seeing Amivika's eyes flickering and knowing this person was up to no good again, Xiaoguang urged her impatiently.

"Yes, of course I want it."

Amivika happily took the huiyuan pills from Xiaoguang's hand, then planted a kiss on Xiaoguang's face.

Watching Amivika leave in high spirits, Xiaoguang wiped the saliva off her face with an expression of disgust.

'She really is so annoying!'

If it weren't for the fact that Amivika cooked well and taught her all sorts of wizard knowledge, she would have found an opportunity to have Nie Ning get rid of this repulsive woman long ago.

...

In the cultivation room.

Nie Ning slowly opened his eyes, a flicker of sharp light flashing through them.

"Awesome!"

After spending so much time, he had finally promoted both his Knight and Wizard classes to the fifth tier.

His strength had increased significantly. Although he didn't know if he could defeat a sixth-tier, he should be at an absolute advantage among fifth-tiers.

He just wasn't sure how he compared to the seed players of these top-tier factions.

Because after arriving here, Nie Ning realized that things considered rare outside were no different from cabbage here, and even the prices were much more affordable.

The Extreme Phase Demon Palace possessed a complete resource production chain and even owned many powerful spells. Anyone who walked out of here was a top-tier talent in the outside world.

In terms of combat power alone, one person could easily take on ten Rogue Wizards without pressure.

Compared to the hard times during his days as a rogue cultivator, this was practically no different from heaven.

However, his Supernatural Adaptability was not weak, and Nie Ning was still very confident in his own strength.

Within the same tier, once Super-Limit Fusion was activated, anyone else had to step aside. He believed that even the top seed players of the Extreme Phase Demon Palace would find it difficult to defeat him.

Looking at the panel, Nie Ning shook his head slightly.

Comprehending Artistic Conception was still too difficult for him; he had only improved by eight points in two months.

Although most of his time had been spent recovering from soul injuries, this progress still left Nie Ning very dissatisfied.

Moreover, it became harder the further he went. It was already starting to feel strenuous, and he dared not imagine what it would be like later on.

The key was that he had a pile of Artistic Conceptions, and each one was exceptionally useful to him.

He wouldn't even mention the ten-element fusion formula; that was one of his foundations and his strongest source of power.

The Soul type would enhance his Spiritual Power and resistance, which was equally crucial for him, as it would reduce the impact of Corruption when fighting Corruptors in the future.

The Life type was even more indispensable. He relied on the Forbidden Domain of Living Beings to turn the tide in losing battles, and the Life Artistic Conception could maximize the power of the Forbidden Domain of Living Beings; tenacious vitality was his capital.

In fact, if it weren't for his extraordinary recovery ability, he would have long been drained dry by that little succubus Amanra.

Even so, he had been feeling a bit physically weak recently, and he hadn't eaten few tonifying pills.

However, for the sake of his future happy life, selling himself was better than going out to fight and kill; many good missions couldn't be accepted without connections.

Last time, he had finally managed to spot a guard job at an herb garden, only to be squeezed out by an unknown fourth-tier nobody.

After inquiring, he learned that the other party was a distant, distant, distant relative from the same village as some manager's relative.

Unfortunately, after observing for several days, the other party had no intention of leaving the Extreme Phase Demon Palace, so Nie Ning had to give up the idea of ambushing them.

Otherwise, according to the normal progression, he would have already found a proper job and could live a normal life just by earning some extra money occasionally.
