I Am A Notorious Hidden Boss In The Alternate World

Chapter 257 - Consecutive Breakthroughs



"These little blue balls smell so pleasant… Is this what they call candy?" Fenriri continued to inquire about the High-rank Grade-3 Resplendent Snow Pills curiously. 

"I suppose you can call it candy," Albion shrugged and said, "But it would be extremely expensive candies. Just swallow one and experience its wonders, then you will know what they do." 

"Oh. Understood, Master," Fenriri nodded. 

Plop!

Fenriri popped the first High-rank pill into her mouth after uncorking the pill bottle before she immediately felt the pill melted, causing a surge of frigid-attribute spiritual energy to burst out of the pill and flowed throughout her body.

Gasp!

Fenriri was immediately surprised before she quickly sat down and meditated solemnly to absorbing the sudden supply of frigid-attribute spiritual energy in her body. 

Within moments, the medicinal effect of the pill took effect and drove the frigid-attribute spiritual energy through her body like it had a will of its own. 

Rumble…!

Fenriri's aura suddenly surged from her breakthrough to Mid-stage Aura Lord—but not even several breaths later, her aura surged again, advancing her cultivation to Late-stage Aura Lord!

"Two consecutive breakthroughs, huh?" Albion rubbed his chin thoughtfully at the results before muttering, "The Grade-3 Resplendent Snow Pill should have only advanced her cultivation by a small stage…"

"For her to experience two consecutive breakthroughs with one pill, it must mean she had never ingested any medicinal pills before, which give rise to such overwhelming effects," Albion speculated. 

When he thought about it, it made perfect sense.

The Netherfrost Blizzard Realm had high spiritual energy levels. Despite that, its inhabitants were not that much higher-leveled than those on Earth, most likely due to the priority over survival rather than cultivation. 

As such, a number of spirit herbs could be found lying around the world, and alchemy was not developed, considering high-quality spirit herbs could only be used to brew tea in the Iceborn Wolf Tribe.

"Uwah! This is amazing, Master!" Fenriri jumped in celebration as she pranced around Albion excitedly and said, "Fenriri just caught up to big sister's cultivation level in one go! Fenriri can't wait to see the look on big sister's face when she finds out! Hehe!"

As Fenriri shared her joy with Albion, she jumped up and gave him a peck on the cheek, causing Albion to be slightly stunned. 

"I shouldn't go to jail for this…" Albion scratched his cheek wryly before he suddenly paused and mused intriguingly, "But then again, the police might not want to take me in—at least not the ones in Silvercove City."

After all, the entire police department collapsed because of him. 

"Alright, settle down already," Albion patted Fenriri's shoulders to calm her down before he calmly said, "Just a small breakthrough got you this excited. How are you going to act when you advance to even higher levels?"

"Master, you don't know what it means for Fenriri to advance two consecutive stages within the Aura Lord Realm!" Fenriri argued.

"The higher one's level, the harder it is to advance. Due to this, most tribesmen find it challenging to advance further after reaching the Aura Lord Realm! Each small stage would normally take us several years!"

"And without accumulating a few decades of experience, it is not possible to advance to the Aura King Realm like our father and the other elders!"

"That is because you've never known of alchemy. With a single medicinal pill refined through alchemy, you could save tens, hundreds, or even thousands of years of tedious cultivation," Albion casually stated. 

"I think you should understand this clearly since you are aware that your whatcha-called tea could promote the strength of Aura Kings by a level. However, this is just a primitive method of using spirit herbs for cultivation."

"If you continue to follow me, I can guarantee you will breakthrough to Aura Ancestor within 2 years at the very least," Albion assured confidently.

Once that was said, Fenriri stood up straight and saluted with a solemn yet cute expression as she vowed, "Fenriri will certainly follow Master obediently!" 

"Then you can start by heading out and look for some spirit herbs for me," Albion casually instructed before he said, "You have just ingested a Grade-3 Resplendent Snow Pill and will not be able to ingest another one any time soon."

"Also, you should know that the Grade-3 Resplendent Snow Pill is only effective within the Aura Lord Realm. Thus, there won't be any point ingesting anymore after you reach the Peak-stage Aura Lord Realm."

With Fenriri's inherent wolf bloodline, her sense of smell should be far superior to ordinary humans, making it perfect for spirit herb hunting—but of course, it was still inferior to his Eyes of Ashura.

However, as the boss, there was no need for Albion to expend effort into procuring spirit herbs if the task can be delegated to those working under him.

"In that case, is it okay if Fenriri keeps these pills for Fenriri's big sister, Master?" Fenriri requested. 

"You want to give such precious medicine to your sister instead of using it on yourself?" Albion glanced at Fenriri and said nonchalantly, "Not that I have any reason to stop you. The pills have been given to you, so it is up to you what you want to do with them."

"Thank you, Master!" Fenriri expressed her gratitude and said, "Big Sister has always taken care of Fenriri! It's the least Fenriri can do to repay Big Sister's kindness."

"Also, Master just said these blue balls are only effective in the Aura Lord Realm and will no longer be effective once Fenriri advances to Peak-stage Aura Lord. However, there are still two of these blue balls. At least one of them can definitely be given to Fenriri's big sister!"

"Well, you do you," Albion shrugged. 

Perhaps, it will also save him the trouble of coming up with something else to reward Fenrira for managing matters in the Glacia continent.

A few minutes later, Fenriri disappeared into the blizzard to hunt for spirit herbs after packing the pill bottle into the leather bag and leaving it in the cave with Albion. 

With Fenriri gone, Albion took the chance to resume his cultivation peacefully.
