Chapter 584: Chapter 272: God Machine Armament (Seeking Monthly Pass)
“`
Months had passed, and the previously bustling Reading Room had become much quieter, with only a few students reading.
Just as Jack Clark stepped out of the elevator, as if he had a premonition, the girl by the distant window lifted her head slightly, and a smile appeared in her drifting eyes upon seeing him.
Jack also couldn’t help but smile and sat down opposite her.
Today, Freya Louise wore a pink, patterned short-sleeved T-shirt and slim jeans, looking neat and tidy.
Her jet-black hair was still secured at the back of her head with a white butterfly knot, and the hanging white ribbon intertwined with her hair, giving off a refreshing and beautiful aura.
Although they had not seen each other for over two months, there was no sense of estrangement between them. After sitting down, Jack curiously asked, “Freya, what have you been doing these two months since you’ve been back?”
The girl smiled, holding the scripture in her hand, “I’ve been reading books. Recently, I’ve read through all 36 volumes of the esteemed Taoist Scriptures and the Thirteen Taoist Scriptures.”
“Besides that, the Thirteen Buddhist Scriptures and the 72 volumes of Mahayana Buddhism, though much of the content was profound and not entirely clear, I’ve also gained quite a bit.”
“Impressive,” Jack Clark murmured in admiration.
Having lived with the battle intent of a Unique Beast in half his consciousness, the desire for slaughter and destruction in Jack’s heart had grown stronger, so he also thought about using these scriptures to cleanse his mind.
But unfortunately, he couldn’t get into them, or rather, he didn’t understand these profoundly mystical scriptures.
It wasn’t until he later went to the Alien Beast Battlefield that a night of battles under the Blood Moon, culminating in sweeping through the battlefield and condensing Battle Intent, allowed him to slay the extreme desires for slaughter and destruction in his heart.
In Jack’s understanding, the Prison Blood War Intent was actually the expression of his own intent of slaughter.
At this moment, Jack spoke with some confusion, “Strange, although I can’t sense your exact realm, Freya, you haven’t broken through to the Fourth Layer Heaven, have you?”
Freya’s cultivation method was always different from others, simply reading the Taoist and Buddhist scriptures could help her enter a serene state, where her cultivation speed was very fast under special conditions.
She initially displayed a talent similar to Jack’s, having reached Foundation Establishment within half a month.
However, as she practiced that special Cultivation Method and read every day, her cultivation speed began to surpass that of geniuses like Justin Welan, not inferior to Crystal Lewis and others.
When she left the Unique Beast Battlefield over two months ago, she was already at the late stage of the Third Layer Heaven, so she should have broken through to the Four Layer Heaven long ago.
Faced with Jack’s confusion, the girl blinked, “Not yet, I seem to have hit a bottleneck recently, and I’ve been stuck at the peak of the Triplex Heaven.”
“But I feel like I’m about to break through.” Just as she finished speaking, an uncontrollable powerful aura erupted from within her.
Boom!
The Heavenly Energy within hundreds of meters range suddenly surged around Freya, turning into an invisible raging wind that encircled her, causing Jack’s hair to flutter.
The sudden change drew the attention of many, and in C Building, numerous Martial Cultivation students instinctively looked up at the ceiling, their eyes filled with envy.
“Such a strong aura.”
“Someone is breaking through from the Third Layer, no, it should be the Fourth Layer; the aura of the Third Layer isn’t that powerful.”
“Which genius is breaking through?”
“Stop with the geniuses. Our First Grade geniuses have already broken through the Third Layer and entered the Alien Beast Battlefield. The person likely breaking through now should be Freya Louise from Class 3.”
“Class 3’s Freya Louise? Wasn’t it said that she couldn’t withstand the high-pressure environment of the Alien Beast Battlefield and came out after only a month?”
“You believe that?”
“Brother, you’re underestimating Freya too much. At the beginning of the year during the cleaning mission, she followed Jack, that freak, deep into the mountains every day, hunting many Mutated Beasts.”
“Moreover, the final Level 4 Task, the Dragon Armor Beast that has Dragon Bloodline, was slain by her spear—do you think she can’t withstand the high-pressure environment of the Alien Beast Battlefield?”
“So you’re saying her departure from the Alien Beast Battlefield was for some other reason?”
“Obviously,” was the reply.
As many students downstairs discussed enviously, up in the Reading Room, as the True Power began to undergo a Quality Change, the aura emanating from Freya became increasingly powerful.
Yet, compared to the heavy and oppressive sensation when Jack broke through to the Fourth Layer Heaven, Freya’s breakthrough felt light and ethereal, giving a clear and elusive impression.
She was right there in front of him, but Jack felt as if she stood outside of the world, immeasurably distant from him.
He had experienced this strange feeling once a few months ago and thought it was just an illusion, but now it seemed that it was likely the attribute of Freya’s Cultivation Method.
Huu huu!!
The raging wind continued, with the dense Heavenly Energy swirling around the girl, her aura rising rapidly until, in just a moment, she completed the Quality Change and entered the Fourth Layer.
But it didn’t stop there.
Freya’s aura kept climbing, drawing in more and more Heavenly Energy, which she absorbed rapidly as if she didn’t need to refine it at all.
Even Jack was somewhat stunned by the speed of this conversion, as if the Heavenly Energy was her True Strength all along.
Boom!
In Jack’s astonished gaze, Freya’s aura surged, propelling her into the mid-stage of the Fourth Layer Heaven, and only then did the surrounding Heavenly Energy slowly dissipate.
What followed was a wait of over half an hour.
Only after her True Strength had fully settled did the girl across from him slowly open her eyes, revealing bright pupils that had turned sky blue, like a cloudless sky.
Her aura was distant, tranquil, and carried an indifferent overlook of all beings, without a trace of emotion.
However, the girl quickly blinked, and the cold and emotionless sensation vanished, with liveliness and a smile appearing in her sky-blue eyes.
But Jack’s expression became somewhat solemn as he looked at her and slowly said, “Freya, have you been suppressing your realm all along?”
