The Return of the God of War Chapter 3579

To Extremes

A sense of impending doom filled everyone’s hearts.

Not only were they of no help to Levi when the enemy was about to strike, but they had also becomehis burden.

Knowing that they were not strong enough to back Levi up, the others wallowed in guilt.

“If I had been more diligent in my cultivation practice, I might be able to help out now.”

“If I had listened to Boss, I would not have lost my spiritual bone and let Xylas get his way.”

“If we had been more accomplished in cultivation, we would not have become Boss’ liabilities.”

Azure Dragon and the others were anguished that they were of no help to Levi.

Even Floyd, who was feeling down, shared their sentiments.

“If I were stronger, not only will I be able to help Master defeat his enemy, but I will also truly gainGloria’s favor. I’m a useless man. Why am I still alive for?” Floyd said as he punched the groundrepeatedly.

His fist was already bloody from the punches, but he did not seem to realize it.

It was as if he had lost all senses of pain.

Forlevia was also racking her brain in figuring out a quick way to get Levi out of the sticky situation.

She was contemplating to practice the more extreme techniques outlined in her own technique book.

Even though she had advanced rapidly in her cultivation practice, it was still not enough to fend offLevi’s enemy.

Forlevia reckoned that she would only be able to defeat Xylas, albeit straining herself in doing so.

If Xylas had devoured a lot of energy, however, Forlevia was not certain that she could even rival him.

After all, Xylas was going to extremes by choosing to be a devourer to advance his cultivation prowess.

“What are you thinking about, Evie?” Levi’s voice rang behind her.

“Dad, I want to show you something,” Forlevia said with a smile.

“Sure.” Levi seemed quite eager to find out.

Forlevia then activated a technique and turned the space within two to three-meter vicinity into anindependent space, absorbing all the sky and earth’s spiritual energy and the powers of the fiveelements.

In just the blink of an eye, all lives within the independent space turned barren and lifeless.

If one were to explain her display of technique using a human as an analogy, the space was a livelychild before she absorbed the spiritual energy and five elements. However, after she absorbedeverything within the two to three-meter vicinity, the metaphorical lively child turned into an old, dyingman.

Then, Forlevia used the same technique and created another independent space aside.

This time, she used her own technique derived from her technique book. The absorption speed wasvisibly slower than the previous technique.

However, Levi soon realized that the second independent space was filled with Forlevia’s shadows.

It was as if Forlevia had blended in with the independent space that she had created.

With a snap of her finger, Forlevia could utilize the power of the universe.

“Dad, I believe you must have spotted the difference, right?” Forlevia asked in a low voice.

Levi was a shrewd man. He knew right away what Forlevia was trying to tell him.

The first type of technique was forcibly harnessing the power of the universe, and it could advanceone’s cultivation in a short amount of time.

However, as shown by the barren space that Forlevia had demonstrated, it would ruin the harmony ofthe space.

The second technique was to harmonize with the heavens and earth.

Even though the advance in one’s cultivation would not be as fast, one would be able to harness thepower of the universe in the long term.

This was the core difference between Forlevia and Xylas’ techniques.

If Gloria was around, she would realize that Forlevia’s cultivation would reach a formidable peak if thelatter chose to go to extremes.

“Evie, it is best to be patient in the practice of cultivation. I would suggest you stick to your own path.Just leave the other matters to me. Do you understand?” Levi said with a stern look on his face.

He understood Forlevia’s intention in showcasing the differences between the two techniques.

She wanted to advance her cultivation in a short amount of time so that she could lend a helping handto Levi when he was facing his enemy.

Levi was touched by Forlevia’s filial piety.

He thought it unwise if Forlevia gave up on her original path just for this small, albeit accelerated gain.

Besides, Forlevia’s own technique was more promising in the long term, and it would be more potentas well.

Levi wanted the best for his daughter after all.

Hence, he rejected Forlevia’s kind offer.

“Dad, I understand,” Forlevia said with a heartfelt smile.

She would not have contemplated the accelerated practice of cultivation if not for the direcircumstances that they were in.novelbin
