Chapter 441 – Nana’s Suggestion

Lan Xuanyu said, “But why is it so easy for others to break through to the next stage, but so difficult for me to break through to rank 30? Will it be very difficult for me to reach rank 40 in the future too? At that time, I even borrowed the power of the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd to complete the breakthrough.”

“Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd?” Nana was stunned.

Lan Xuanyu raised his hand and revealed the ring on his thumb. “This. It can turn into a halberd, but it can only be used when I stimulate my Dragon God scale to confer me the power of the Dragon God’s bloodline.”

Nana held his hand and Lan Xuanyu felt his thumb lighten. In the next moment, the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd appeared out of nowhere and a dark blue halberd was held in Nana’s hand.

Nana had once used the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd to destroy a spacecraft, so Lan Xuanyu wasn’t surprised that she could use it.

“What a familiar name.” Nana’s headache seemed to have come back once again. She waved the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd in her hand gently, leaving afterimages in the air.

“It’s extremely strong. It’s as if nothing can stop it. I’ve used it to defeat opponents two levels higher than me. Teacher Nana, is the Heavenly Sacred splitting Abyss Halberd a Divine Weapon? Some of my classmates said it is, but the teachers never said so.”

Nana subconsciously replied, “Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss, oblivious to defense, True Damage, and indestructible.”

After saying that, she seemed to have sobered up. A blue light flashed in her hand and the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd transformed back into a ring and landed on Lan Xuanyu’s finger.

“It should be a Divine Weapon, but it is very difficult to control. You must be careful and don’t hurt yourself. It is not an ordinary Divine Weapon. It’s likely to be a very powerful one.” Nana rubbed Lan Xuanyu’s head.

Lan Xuanyu nodded. “What do you mean by it’s not an ordinary Divine Weapon? My mother said that I had this ring since I was born and it has always been with me. It was as if it was born with me. When I was able to use it for the first time, its name naturally appeared in my mind. What is going on?”

Nana shook her head. “I don’t know about this, but it’s actually more harmful than beneficial to you right now. It’s fine here, but if you leave the academy, there might be people who want to snatch it. So before you’re strong enough, try to not use it. At least don’t let everyone think it’s a Divine Weapon. Did any teachers in the academy ask you?”

Lan Xuanyu shook his head.

When he defeated Tang Yuge, he used the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd, but the teachers in the academy had never asked him about this halberd, so Lan Xuanyu didn’t really mind about it. Now after hearing Nana’s words, he realized how big of a problem it was for him to have a Divine Weapon with his current abilities.

“I’ll try my best to use it less in the future. I’ll use it only as a last resort.” Lan Xuanyu said seriously.

Nana said, “You’ve improved a lot and changed a lot. I’ll help you sort out your abilities during these few days. Tell me about you, what did you learn in the past six months, what abilities did you grasp, and what changes did you undergo?”

“Alright.” Lan Xuanyu agreed and began explaining his experience after coming to Shrek Academy to Nana.

Nana listened attentively and never interrupted him. She just listened to him.

Lan Xuanyu spoke for an hour until he reached the end of term exams. He couldn’t help but feel a little proud when he talked about how all his classmates acknowledged him.

“…Then, we came back. We got a lot of rare metals this time, after going back I can start forging. There are enough to make Battle Armors. Then you guys came today, and we have 15 days off.”

After listening to his explanation, Nana smiled. “You’ve experienced a lot in the past six months and did very well. But you’re wrong about one thing.”

“Ah?” Lan Xuanyu looked at her in confusion. “What’s wrong?”

Nana said, “You underestimate yourself too much, especially after breaking through to three-ring. In fact, you still don’t have the ability to truly control yourself. Your Martial Soul, your bloodline, and your three-ring cultivation base can also shine brightly. But you’ve always placed yourself in a supporting position and only occasionally erupted. You relied more on your brain to fight. It’s not a problem to rely on your intelligence, it’s a good thing, it proves that you’re smart enough. But this also made you neglect your true abilities and didn’t reveal your true strength. Most of the time, you don’t have to think too much because your strength is sufficient.”

“I don’t have complete control over my abilities?” Lan Xuanyu asked in surprise.

Nana nodded. “Yes, it’s lacking a lot. Your bloodlines have already fused and you can treat the original two bloodlines as one. In that case, their combination will be much stronger than before. More importantly, you neglected your control over your strength. Your spiritual power, soul power, Martial Soul, and bloodline power are all very strong among those of the same rank, but you weren’t able to combine them together. If you can’t do this then you’re wasting all those abilities you have.”

Lan Xuanyu nodded. “Teacher Nana, what should I do?”

Nana said, “I will stay until you start school. During this period of time, I will help you sort out your abilities and find your own fighting style. I will teach you the direction of your cultivation and when you have more abilities in the future, you will continue to improve according to this direction. Also, the reason why your advancement is so difficult is because you need to accumulate more soul power than others. And once you advance, it is equivalent to an evolution. Next time you break through, don’t use the power of the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyssal Halberd. Although it is powerful enough to help you break through your bottleneck quickly, it also shortens the process of accumulation. When you will have to breakthrough to four-ring, it will be even harder. And if you use the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyssal Halberd to break through again, it will be even more difficult to break through to five-ring in the future. So, you must rely on your own abilities to break through. Only by accumulating enough soul power can you truly control your own abilities.”

“Although this will make your soul power cultivation progress much slower than others, every improvement and evolution will allow you to be reborn. In the future, when you truly accomplish the Dragon God’s bloodline, success will follow naturally.”

Lan Xuanyu said unwillingly, “But my soul power cultivation is far inferior to my companions.”

Nana smiled. “What does that matter? If you have three-ring, your fighting strength wouldn’t be inferior to a five-ring soul master. When you have five-ring, your fighting strength could even be compared to a seven or eight-ring soul master. What does it matter if your soul power is high or low? Soul power is just a number, and it doesn’t represent your true strength. What you want to improve is your true strength, and what you need to accumulate is a solid foundation. Think about it, if others find an insurmountable bottleneck when they have nine rings, and you only have six or seven rings at that time, your strength is already about the same as theirs. You can still improve, but they can no longer improve. In comparison, which is better?”

Lan Xuanyu was a smart child and after hearing Nana’s explanation, his eyes lit up. “Teacher Nana, I understand. As long as I can continue to improve, I will be satisfied.”

Nana said, “After your bloodlines’ fusion, it has opened a brand new door for you. Breakthroughs are difficult, but cultivation is easy. As long as you work hard to master your own abilities, you will continue to break through. Your growth is only a matter of time.”

“Thank you, Teacher Nana.”

Nana smiled. “Alright, let’s go out. Your parents are probably anxious from waiting.”

After walking out of the meditation room, An Peijiu was waiting outside. She looked at Nana and then Lan Xuanyu. She only smiled but didn’t say anything.
