After cultivating for a few hours, Su Chen wandered around the villa, soaked in the hot springs alone, felt bored, and then went to stroll around the Belle Building.

Time passed by like a fleeting horse, in the blink of an eye more than twenty days, almost a month, had passed.

During these days, Su Chen spent most of his time like this, occasionally visiting Qin Nishang or Dugu Mingyue to chat, nothing much happened.

In his opinion, now in the Ancient Martial World, there shouldn't be any more people looking for trouble!

Since those people aren't coming to make trouble for him, he naturally isn't bothered to look for trouble with them either!

During this nearly one month, most of his time was certainly spent cultivating the "Nine Yang Divine Technique"!

And because he devoted most of his time to cultivating the "Nine Yang Divine Technique," his cultivation level has also grown rapidly during this time!

He feels that he is almost breaking through to the Condensation Pill Realm, that threshold seems to be right in front of him, but he hasn't crossed it yet!

He also knows that this kind of thing cannot be forced, and he will naturally break through when the time comes!

Although he hasn't truly broken through to the Condensation Pill Realm, his cultivation speed is already astonishing enough to leave others dumbfounded!

However, Su Chen feels it is quite normal because he has long understood how phenomenal the "Nine Yang Divine Technique" is!

In fact, this speed is a bit slower than he expected. After all, it has been over forty days since he broke through to the Great Perfection of the Kaiyuan Realm!

Moreover, he has spent seventy to eighty percent of his recent time cultivating the "Nine Yang Divine Technique"!

Initially, Su Chen thought that breaking through from the late stage of the Kaiyuan Realm to the Condensation Pill Realm would only take two or three months, but obviously, his estimation was a bit optimistic, as it has been over three months now!

However, this is also normal. When cultivating to this degree, it's quite normal to spend a bit more or less time!

Fortunately, Su Chen is not in a hurry, he just takes it as spending more time with the ladies in the villa!

...

After cultivating for a few hours this day, he temporarily stopped.

At this moment, he remembered the words his old ghost mentor once told him, saying that when his true strength reaches about the late stage of the Heaven's Ultimate Realm, he would tell him where he really came from!

He wonders if that old ghost is just toying with him or deceiving him!

It's no wonder he thinks this way because ever since he was a child, Gongsun Liang has done these kinds of things quite a lot, otherwise Su Chen wouldn't have given him the nickname old ghost!

If it's true, who knows why he would have to wait until then to tell him!

He thought to himself: If he can successfully break through to the Condensation Pill Realm, and considering the progress he made in the "Thousand Hand Seal" recently, which is far more powerful than before!

Also, the Star Energy stored in his body is very abundant now!

Combining these factors, his true strength should be enough to contend with people whose strength is at about the Earth Level Realm Perfection!

In a dying situation, he might even be able to contend with stronger people!

Of course, this is just his guess!

As mentioned before, after all, he is still not familiar with Martial Artists of that level!

However, one thing is certain, he is still a bit away from reaching that old ghost's requirement of the late stage of the Heaven's Ultimate Realm!

Fortunately, it's not too far away, based on his previous experiences, Su Chen is confident in reaching it within a certain time!

By then, let's see what that old ghost has to say!

To be honest, he is really curious about where that old ghost truly comes from, which is a mystery he often thinks about but can't figure out!

He also knows that all along, he has underestimated that old ghost's strength, he might even say he has vastly underestimated it!

...

After letting his thoughts wander for a while, Su Chen pushed these ideas aside. After all, he still needs to make a trip to the Ruin Realm, and he'll talk about it after returning from there.

Then, he walked out of his room, and since there was nothing special to do, he drove out.

Without having any particular place to go, he went to the Belle Building!

Upon reaching the building, he joked with some of the girls at the reception before getting on the elevator.

This time, he didn't go to his office first but headed to the floor where Xia Qiuru's office was located.

Unfortunately, Xia Qiuru wasn't there, and her assistant told him she had gone out with Lin Ruoxue for some important matter.

Having no choice, Su Chen returned to his office, brewed a cup of tea as usual, and picked up a "Men's Uno" magazine to read.

After finishing the magazine, he casually played some card games or puzzle games!

But after an hour or so, he started to feel bored again!

Since Lin Ruoxue and Xia Qiuru weren't there, he decided to visit Luo Xiwen!

He stayed at Luo Xiwen's place for more than half an hour, and since Luo Xiwen was also busy, he decided to leave.

He had intended to check out the PR department but thought better of it, realizing that he'd be walking into the lion's den if he did!

A man has to protect himself when he's out and about!

With that, he drove back...

When he returned to the villa, the ladies were all still cultivating, so he went back to his room to continue his cultivation...

...

After two or three hours, he temporarily stopped, changed into swim trunks, and walked out of his room!

As he came out, he saw Qi Meng, Eniel, and Du Hanbing playing around in the hot spring, almost like kids splashing water, having a great time!

Actually, it was the sound of laughter and play that brought Su Chen out!

At this moment, the women were all naturally dressed in swimsuits!

Du Hanbing and Qi Meng wore a backless one-piece, while Eniel was still in her beloved bikini!

Although all the women had perfect figures, virtually flawless!

But the most eye-catching was Eniel, with her wet golden hair draping down, her body shimmering with glistening water droplets under the afternoon sun!

Of course, what captivated Su Chen the most was her fiery figure!

"Who's losing, let me help!"

At this time, Su Chen said with a laugh, and with a splash, he jumped in, sending a spray of water everywhere!

With his entrance, Du Hanbing and the others were at a disadvantage, and the women immediately formed an alliance to "resist" the "attack" of this rogue!

But the "enemy" was too strong, and in the end, the women retreated one after another, fleeing the scene!

Su Chen, in a victorious stance, lay by the hot spring with his eyes closed, enjoying a bit of relaxation, a satisfied smile lingering on his lips!

As the women returned to their rooms, they turned back to see his roguish expression, their beautiful eyes glaring at him in frustration...
