More Breakthroughs Part 1
.....
Azmond went back to cultivating after he finished expanding his 11000 Qi Cyclones to their maximum size of 900 meters!
His Dantian had also reached an impressive 4500 meters in diameter!
Azmond's Dantian Space was now filled up with huge balls of condensed Qi on all sides, with a giant sun in the middle.
He was happy about this development, but he knew that he needed to be far stronger than this if he wanted to survive with his loved ones in this world.
So Azmond, being the man he was, just continued to cultivate like a madman!
.....
Four more days passed by like that as he approached the peak of the 11th Stage of Quantum Qi Condensation for the 12th time.
'It looks like I'm about to break through again...'
Azmond was thinking about one topic, but he was really focused on something else entirely as his gaze traveled down to his Little Ice Flower.
"Her aura has changed so much these past few days." He spoke with a concerned expression.
'I hope she's okay... I didn't notice any harmful energies enter inside her over the last few days, but if something far stronger than myself wanted to hide something from me, then it would be as easy as breathing for them to hide some form of hidden damage.'
Little did he know that some type of energy did in fact enter Crystalline, which was partly responsible for the huge changes occurring inside of her right now.
It was Azmond's milk...
....
'I checked her body out multiple times during this period of time, but I saw nothing more than her energy growing because of some foreign energy that I can't yet figure out the source of because of my insufficient cultivation base,' he thought.
'It doesn't seem to be harming her right now, but you never know when something like that could suddenly change...'
A pondering expression overtook his facial features as he deeply thought about the matter surrounding his little Ice Roll.
'I'm not confident that I can save Crystalline's life if whatever is happening inside of her decides it wants to take her life...'
A self-deprecating smile emerged on Azmond's face as he gazed lovingly at a voluptuous beauty sleeping peacefully on a large, intact bed.
He had switched out the bed Crystalline was sleeping on a couple of days ago because he was afraid that she might fall off the half-collapsed one if she rolled over in her sleep too much.
It was a cute trait that Azmond noticed she did quite often while she was sleeping...
....
"She is so adorable and yet so clumsy... heh~"
Azmond's depressing mindset quickly disappeared as he started to lightheartedly chuckle with a bright smile on his face.
'What am I so worried over? My Ice Roll is a strong woman and is capable of taking care of herself,' he thought.
'That doesn't mean I will stop worrying about her, but maybe I should just believe that she has her current predicament under control.'
"If she really can't handle what is happening inside of her by herself, then I will do everything within my power to support her..." He spoke with a resolute gleam in his eyes.
"Even if it costs me my life," Azmond muttered with a serious expression.
.....
Something that started to change within Azmond when he met Aqua once again showed its head, as it looked like he had made a decision inside of his subconscious.
He wanted to pursue the path of power to the very end, but if the woman or women he loved died along the way because he didn't care enough...
Would he truly be satisfied with his position at the very top of existence, with only the dust that gathered atop his crown there to accompany him?
The truth was that he wouldn't be satisfied...
The old him would've been content with a future like that a few months ago, but now he wanted something more!
Azmond was a very greedy man; he wasn't one to settle with one of two options; he was a man who would take both options, find a secret third option, and take that option as well.
...
"I will begin breaking through to the 12th Stage of Qi Condensation now that I know that My Little Ice Bunny is safe and sound."
Azmond's loving smile quickly turned to one of determination as he re-focused on absorbing the abundant energy being produced by the giant spiritual stone.
...
Half a day later.
A handsome man with his long, elegant robe in tatters was seen floating in the sky thousands of meters above the ground with a pained look spread across his face.
'I don't like breaking through so high up in the air, but I have no choice unless I want to destroy the landscape within dozens of miles during my breakthrough.'
A wry smile formed on Azmond's pained expression as he continued to break through to the 12th Stage of Quantum Qi Condensation.
His breakthroughs were just that dangerous!
On that note, everything within a 10-mile radius of his breakthrough was completely consumed by the ridiculous amount of Qi that swarmed around him when he was breaking through!
Qi truly wasn't a dangerous element, but Azmond tends to have the ability to turn often tranquil situations into perilous predicaments in the blink of an eye with just his presence...
....
A few hours later, along with a multitude of blinding lights caused by Azmond irritating the Qi in the atmosphere as it was absorbed by him during his breakthrough,.
He was finally able to break through to the 12th Stage of Quantum Qi Condensation with a large flash and explosion as his body was launched downwards at extreme speeds!
BOOOOOOM!
His bloodied body collided with a large mountain that imploded into itself upon impact.
"Well, that breakthrough sure was a b*tch, huh?" A figure that resembled one of the walking dead suddenly spoke from within the large amount of rubble he had just tunneled his way out of.
"Why was this breakthrough different from my other breakthroughs? I was severely injured after every previous breakthrough I had in the Quantum Qi Condensation Realm, but it wasn't to this extent."
"Is God trying to play games with me, or is it something else?"
Azmond started to ponder to himself, with both of his arms broken and shattered, as he thought of something that could be the cause of this odd phenomenon.
