Yuanyuan was very satisfied with her cultivation progress and even reminded Ran Bingluan while eating.

——Single-mindedly burying oneself in cultivation is not advisable; maintaining a balance between tension and relaxation is the right way!

Qu Jianlei listened and merely smiled indifferently, casually thanking her for the reminder.

Seeing that the guy didn’t appreciate it, Yuanyuan couldn’t be bothered to say more. She wasn’t aware of how much he cherished this hard-earned peace.

Since Qu Jianlei transmigrated, he was either struggling to survive or constantly on the run and hiding.

The only time he could relax a bit was in a manor in the Celestial District of Garbage Star.

But even then, he lived under the guise of being a wanted man, rarely leaving the manor.

Yet, even that period had been the rare peaceful life in his existence.

He certainly understood the concept of balance between tension and relaxation, but it mostly depended on his state of mind.

If the mind was tired, naturally one would feel exhausted; if the mind was at peace, there was no need to deliberately relax.

The way of cultivation is to follow nature.

He cherished this rare peaceful time deeply, so taking one night’s rest every three days was enough!

However, in Yuanyuan’s view, this made him undoubtedly a freak.

She initially thought that with him keeping this tense, he would eventually take a few days of serious rest before making the final push.

Who would have thought that this guy would cultivate as if he were a robot, and unconsciously start breaking through to Supreme?

So humans and non-humans really can’t be compared; I’d better follow my own path.

She was caught up in this sentiment for a while, then turned and left, going to the power center of the Energy Gathering Array.

The layers of stacked Energy Blocks were rapidly vanishing.

Even though the Energy Blocks had been refined, there were still slight residues.

In other devices or weapons using Energy Blocks, the slight residues didn’t cause much trouble; periodic cleaning would suffice.

However, the number of Energy Blocks used by the Energy Gathering Array was huge, and the consumption rate was rapid, making the accumulated residues considerable.

These residues now fell through a filter to the conveyor belt below, which transported them to the waste outlet.

Yuanyuan went to the waste warehouse to take a look and found that the space was still large enough, so there was no immediate rush to clean it. She then checked the feed inlet.

The stacks of Energy Blocks were neatly arranged and being transported methodically.

The feed inlet and waste warehouse were checked on a regular schedule, generally attended to by whoever was available.

After all, every three days, the two of them would meet and have a brief communication.

Initially, Yuanyuan would talk about news from the outside world, but Qu Jianlei believed that if one was in seclusion, they should behave like it.

Good news could be ignored, but less favorable news might affect one’s state of mind.

After he mentioned it twice, Yuanyuan remembered it and ignored any news that didn’t concern Half-Star Island.

The brief communication between them was mainly about cultivation and matters related to the Energy Gathering Array.

So the array had always been maintained well.

Yuanyuan roughly calculated and felt that the transmission speed from the feed inlet might be slow and adjusted two robot commands accordingly.

If the supply of Energy Blocks was delayed, affecting his breakthrough, she’d be in big trouble.

Then she waited quietly while not forgetting to perceive Ran Bingluan’s aura change during the breakthrough process.

This kind of observation could accumulate insights of an A-level Warrior toward breaking through to Supreme, greatly enhancing future breakthrough success probabilities.

Such an opportunity was not only precious but also very rare, something only conceivable by those who were family or close kin.

Yuanyuan didn’t have this psychological pressure; she figured since she was supposed to be a Guardian, observing a bit wasn’t excessive, right?

But the people guarding outside were not appropriate.

Firstly, Ran Bingluan was averse to contact with those people, to the point of not even announcing the news of the breakthrough.

Secondly... among the Guardians, there was no one at A-level; the highest cultivation level among them was four B-levels.

Being below A-level, it was inappropriate to observe the process of breaking through to Supreme, which could, at the very least, affect their mindset or, at worst, lead to instant death.

Qu Jianlei’s breakthrough lasted for more than six days and nights.

The daily consumption of Energy Blocks surged from just over ten thousand to more than forty thousand.

”This guy…” Yuanyuan twitched her eyebrows, ”breaking through to Supreme really is money-draining.”

By the fifth day, she was getting used to it, ”Five days… this foundation is really solid.”

The time it took for an A-level to break through to Supreme varied; the shortest could be done in a single day and night, while the longest could last five or six days.

Generally, the longer the breakthrough to Supreme, the stronger the foundation, and the greater the potential after advancement.

However, with the arrival of daylight, Yuanyuan grew a new concern, ”It’s already the sixth day; what if it fails?”

Indeed, time is better when it comes to breaking through to Supreme, but there’s a crucial premise: it has to succeed!

On the seventh day, Yuanyuan’s worries intensified: could it be that he hadn’t rested at all before, hence... failed?

By midday, a tremendous pressure suddenly rose from Qu Jianlei’s secluded room.

The aura of this pressure was ancient and profound, heavy yet vast, as if an ancient prehistoric beast had been resurrected.

Yuanyuan herself was also at the peak of A-level, but in the face of this aura, she felt as weak as an insect!

Her spirit and even her soul couldn’t help but tremble, ”This pressure...”

Not long ago, she felt Qinghu’s aura, but the pressure from that Supreme compared to the present... was really insignificant.

At this moment, she no longer doubted the result of Ran Bingluan’s breakthrough, but immediately after, another suspicion welled up in her heart.

”Judging by this guy’s momentum, could it be... that he just succeeded in advancing and is already stronger than that one?”

This pressure didn’t last long; it had just been released when its owner began to pull it back in.

However, this aura was newly developed, and he would need some time to master it skillfully.

Moreover, since it was freshly condensed and released for the first time, retracting it too quickly would have adverse effects on himself.

Thus, it took Qu Jianlei about ten minutes to retract the aura to a tolerable extent.

Only then did Yuanyuan manage to escape its influence, exhaling a breath of relief with lingering fear.

”No wonder those below A-level are not allowed to observe; an advancement like this would be dangerous even for a regular A-level!”

She had this confidence that she was definitely not an ordinary A-level.

It was precisely for this reason that when she heard Ran Bingluan killed the farmer and Heart Erosion, she still dared to visit alone.

Immediately after, Yuanyuan noticed another anomaly, ”Why did it suddenly turn dark at midday?”

She looked up and was stunned to find the sky filled with thick clouds, the layers of clouds inky as if dyed with ink.

”This weather... is a bit strange, just now it was a clear sky.”

As previously mentioned, Celestial Hook Star was a rainy planet, especially around Celestial Heart City.

But precisely because it was rainy, the rain here was usually not heavy, and extreme convective weather was rare.

If it had started to be overcast in the morning and kept on until now, Yuanyuan wouldn’t be too surprised.

The problem was that it had been a clear sky not long ago, and now the clouds had darkened to this extent, far beyond her imagination.

Yuanyuan admitted that she was a bit lost just now and didn’t notice the change in the sky.

But looking at the time, it was certain that she was only lost in thought for a few minutes.

So what happened in this short time to change the scene to something as if it were the end of the world?

”The wind is picking up!” Yuanyuan noticed another thing; on Half-Star Island it was very calm, but that was because of the Defense Array.

Outside the island, Lonely Leaf Lake had already stirred up waves layer upon layer.

A sense of the distance showed waves hitting along the shore.

”What in the world… kind of spooky weather is this?”

She was puzzled, and the Guardians outside the island also had bewildered looks, ”Was that aura the Supreme?”

”At least a seasoned Supreme, we have seen Supremes before but this aura is too terrifying.”

”Less gossiping... don’t you all think the weather is a bit strange?”

”When I was young, I spent more than 20 years on Celestial Hook, and this kind of weather is indeed rare!”

”Damn, what a huge wind, surely it’s going to thunderstorm, right?”

”Hey, you fellow fishing there, if you don’t run, be careful of being struck by lightning!”

With the clouds getting lower, Yuanyuan’s heart grew curious.

”Will the thunder be intense? And I wonder if this three-layer Defense Array can withstand the lightning.”

At that moment, a voice rang out, ”Yuanyuan, stay away from my room, be careful not to get struck!”

”Struck me?” Yuanyuan did not hurry to leave but rather curiously asked, ”Are you sure the lightning will hit the island?”

”Ah,” Qu Jianlei sighed, speaking in resignation, ”Just believe me, it will be too late soon.”

He was really helpless, he calculated everything but didn’t foresee facing a Thunder Tribulation himself!

Will an A-level advancing to Supreme encounter Tribulation Thunder? Qu Jianlei had pondered this question.

Moreover, he had earnestly verified,

and regarding information on Supremes, it was basically locked, but the process of A-level advancing to Supreme was not intentionally blocked.

From his understanding, almost no Supremes had encountered lightning during the advancement process.

”Almost no” were not words of insufficient information collection, but rather some were unlucky, encountering lightning during advancement.

But that was genuinely bad weather, not caused by the advancement.

When Qu Jianlei realized he seemed to be facing Tribulation Thunder, he was initially very happy.

This meant he had indeed walked the right path, cultivating not the Superpower System but the Cultivation System he always pursued.

And he had also hypothesized how to deal if encountering Tribulation Thunder.

So even though there was a little anxiety, there was more eagerness coursing through him.

However, he then realized something not quite right: so many were watching him, the matter of crossing the tribulation... couldn’t be hidden!
