BXBX NOVEL Chapter 183: Three months
It wasn\'t every day that he got the option of extracting a high-grade Crystallization of Life, but David didn\'t act hastily.
\'Let\'s look at what treasures this guy owned in his lifetime.\' David\'s eyes flickered unnaturally. In the past, he had been too hasty in choosing options and might have unknowingly lost some goodies.
"Is that strange state again?" Mary silently muttered. She had already noticed David\'s state but didn\'t disturb him. In her heart, she was starting to get curious about it, though that didn\'t mean she was going to ask David about it.
Such a thing couldn\'t be enquired upon. If David wanted to tell her, she would have already known about it. The fact that she didn\'t know implied several things.
\'Was a mighty figure guiding him?\' Mary thought with narrowed eyes. There had been countless legends of supreme cultivators guiding heavenly geniuses in the mortal world; these beings treated guiding and nurturing talents as a form of entertainment.
When she was at the peak of her powers, she had also played around a little, and honestly, the feeling was quite enjoyable.
Numerous thoughts appeared and disappeared in Mary\'s head in the blink of an eye.
In the end, she shook her head. Everyone had their own secrets; she too had her fair share that she never told anyone, nor did she have any intention of telling anyone in the future.
But she still had to warn David in the future—not everyone might be as considerate as her.
Of course, David wasn\'t aware of what Mary was thinking, neither did he care.
At this time, he was looking at the three items that Loc owned:
[You can only choose one -
1 - Seven Dream Bracelet
2 - Nine Paths of Heavenly Lightning
3 - Heatless Wood Mask]
David was greatly disappointed by the three items\' names; none of them sounded impressive. Still, the second item on the list managed to capture his attention for a moment—it was probably a cultivation technique similar to his Purple Lightning.
But to David, cultivation techniques were of little value; they could never come close to the Crystallization of Life in terms of worth.
David dismissed the window and immediately chose to extract the guy\'s Crystallization of Life and continued to move.
Under David\'s watchful eyes, a flickering ball of light appeared inside his spiritual space and merged with his Crystallization of Life.
The merger was soundless and almost perfect, without any ripple.
The silvery-gray mana sea remained completely calm without any waves.
David\'s speed wasn\'t affected by this small incident; the duo continued to move unhindered at great speed.
Two months passed in the blink of an eye.
David and Mary were resting atop a hilltop and chatting casually. From time to time, Mary would tease him, and David would roll his eyes at her actions.
During the last two months, the two had managed to get closer and know each other better.
Stay connected with mvl
David had also realized Mary\'s feelings toward him were genuine; this realization filled his heart with complicated emotions.
He would never be able to reciprocate the feelings Mary had for him. To him, things such as love were very vague concepts that he had no interest in.
If it was someone else, he might have hooked up with her, but she was not a random stranger—she was a companion who might stay with him for a very long time.
Suddenly their expressions turned serious, and they looked towards the horizon.
A terrifyingly huge shadow was moving towards them at a very fast speed.
The shadow\'s aura made Mary\'s heart tighten; whatever was moving toward them was definitely above the Nascent Soul realm.
Facing such an existence, she had no choice but to run. Even though she was a mighty figure previously, the shadow wouldn\'t care about her just because she had a good past.
"Run!" Mary immediately shouted and started running. She didn\'t wait for David to react, as in the past months, she had realized his speed was faster than hers.
"Peak of Void Refining Realm," David muttered slowly. He was shocked; he wasn\'t expecting to encounter such a big shot on this journey.
Although he had been attacked by numerous monsters during the last month, most of them were weaklings, and very few were at the Nascent Soul realm. Now he was suddenly attacked by a Void Refining Realm monster.
For the first time since leaving the Nightblade city, David was starting to understand why it was so difficult to move from one place to another.
While David was busy feeling shocked, the huge monster had already covered the sky with its massive body. The light of day suddenly disappeared as if the sun had been captured by some supreme existence.
The whole surroundings were filled by a terrifying pressure that made the earth tremble, and screeching air filled the surroundings.
"Damn it, you stupid fool, why didn\'t you run!" Mary, who had managed to run far away, cursed in anger.
David seemed to have been frozen in fear and unable to react; this frustrated Mary greatly.
David ignored her loud shout; his eyes were on the huge shadow.
"A dragon?" David guessed when he found the vertical slit-like eyes looking in his direction.
He finally could look at the figure clearly—it was a giant dragon that was almost a hundred meters tall. The numerous black obsidian scales shone like diamonds.
"To dare to look directly in this majesty\'s eyes."
"Mortal, you sure have guts."
In the next moment, an incomparably arrogant voice resounded in his head.
Hearing the arrogant fellow\'s words, David wasn\'t afraid, and a small smile appeared on his lips.
"You think I am arrogant!"
...….
"We finally reached the city." Mary excitedly said while pointing her finger in the distance like a child.
Affected by her enthusiasm, David also smiled and looked at the city with relief.
The city was in the form of a dragon descending from heaven.
After continuously traveling for three months, they had finally reached the closest city.
The shape of the city had reminded David of the poor dragon from one month ago.
Before the poor creature could even react properly, it was beaten to death, and its precious body was sold to the bank.
David was left speechless every time he thought about it.
Three months just to reach the nearest city! Ridiculous!
However, he suddenly smiled and looked at his status report.
He had finally reached the peak of Void Refining Realm; the speed at which his cultivation was increasing was horrifying.

Even now, David was receiving cultivation feedback from the thousands of people he had invested in, pushing his cultivation closer to another realm.
Before he could celebrate, he was hit by a notification.
[Crystallization of Life needed for Breakthrough
0/1000]
Oh! Now David\'s heart was immediately filled with a little despair.
Such a huge number of Crystallizations of Life.
Sigh! The next breakthrough was going to take a lot of time.
Mary was oblivious to David\'s thoughts and immediately moved downward. Like in the Nightblade city, flying above the city\'s airspace was strictly prohibited.
Hesitating for a moment, David followed her, and soon both of them found themselves standing in a line.
David\'s eyes narrowed; from a single glance, he could tell the Crouching Tiger city was more prosperous than the Nightblade city.
The line slowly moved, and soon they found themselves stopped by two fierce-looking guards at the peak of Golden Core Realm. Their aura was terrifying.
"Where is the rest of the group?" one of the guards frowned and asked in confusion while looking at the two of them.
The guard\'s voice was loud and resounded in the surroundings. When those standing behind David heard them, they hurriedly retreated in an effort to draw a clear line, clearly they didn\'t want to be associated with the David group.
David frowned; he had heard about the traveling groups but hadn\'t taken them seriously.
It was rare for anyone to travel alone, most of the cultivator\'s would join a group after paying a certain amount of spirit stones while travelling.
