Chapter 250
Meanwhile, Jonathan watched Mabel warily.
When he saw she had entered a fetal breathing state, he knew she had arrived at the most critical
moment.
During that time, Mabel''s cells had absorbed enough nutrients. In the end, she had excess nutrients
that were sent to her skull.
It was an incredibly dangerous process.
The skull was the most important part of the body. If things went wrong, Mabel could go insane or,
worse, die.
With great caution, Mabel controlled the speed of the medicinal properties entering her brain.
It required extreme delicateness and a strong will to control it.
It was not long before all the medicinal properties entered her brain.
Suddenly, with a whoosh, all the medicinal properties were gone as if they had never existed in the first
ce.
Mabel panicked. She focused and scanned high and low in every part of her brain, but to no avail.
Suddenly, she realized what was happening. There were a vast amount of cells in her brain, like the
stars in the sky.
Thus, the tiny amount of nutrients was not enough to unlock the door in her brain.
“What''s wrong?” Jonathan asked when he saw Mabel opening her eyes.
With a bitter smile, Mabel exined, “My body has absorbed enough nutrients. This Heaven Pill''s
powers are unimaginable, but once the excess nutrients reach my brain, they''re instantly absorbed by
the brain cells. They vanished before I could even exercise my power.”
After a moment of pondering, Jonathan decided to take out another Heaven Pill, saying, “I originally
wanted to give this to Simon, but since you''re in the critical moment, it''s best you take it first.”
Shocked, Mabel quickly rejected, “How can I do that? No way. I''m already very grateful to you for giving
me a Heaven Pill. I can''t possibly take another from you.”
However, Jonathan said, “I would''ve died if it weren''t for you. Tsk. Don''t be shy and take it. You''re in
urgent need of it. Take it. Quick. There will still be elixir pills in the future. Besides, your cultivation
hasn''t been an easy process.”
Mabel contemted as she stared at the Heaven Pill in Jonathan''s hand.
He''s right. I really need the Heaven Pill now, but I really don''t think I should take another one from him.
He''s a cultivator too. It wasn''t easy for him to get the Heaven Pills. He needs it as well.
Taking a deep breath, she refused, “I won''t take it, Jonathan. I can only take what I deserve. I can''t take
this.”
Jonathan smiled. “If you don''t want it, I''ll flush it down the drain.” With that, he walked toward the
restroom with the Heaven Pill.
Mabel jumped in rm. She knew him well, and he was totally capable of doing such a thing.
“What are you doing?” Mabel questioned, stopping Jonathan in his tracks.
Grinning, Jonathan said, “Mabel, I know what you''re thinking. Truth is, there''s no need for such
complicated thoughts between us. You need it, so let me give it to you. So what if Heaven Pills are
valuable? To me, our friendship is more valuable.”
At that, he stuffed the pill into Mabel''s hand.
“Take it. I want to see how powerful is the Door of Enlightenment,” said Jonathan.
Since things had escted to that point, Mabel knew it would be unreasonable of her to refuse him
again. “Very well. I''ll keep this favor in mind, Jonathan.”
Jonathan smiled.
Following that, they returned to their seats.
Mabel sat cross-legged again and swallowed the pill..
This time, the medicinal properties rushed straight to her mind.
Meanwhile, Jonathan saw her face suddenly turning red as if there was a fire burning her skin.
She shut her eyes tight.
Jonathan watched her, feeling very anxious. Sh*t. Don''t tell me Mabel can''t take the effects of two
Heaven Pills. He would not be able to forgive himself if his mere act of kindness had brought doom to
Mabel.
At the same time, Jonathan did not dare to interrupt her.
A slight disturbance or knock on the head would bring severe consequences.
Thus, he could only watch her in suspense.
After what seemed to be forever, the redness on Mabel''s face gradually faded.
Jonathan was relieved when he saw that.
Five minutester, Mabel finally opened her eyes.
Jonathan noticed an indescribable, charming glint in her eyes.
Mabel''s face was glowing, and excitement was written all over it. “It worked.”
Jonathan was delighted to hear the news. “That''s amazing. How do you feel now?”
Mabel said, “I condensed the properties of the Heaven Pill into a form of energy and found a door in my
mind. The medicinal properties of the first pill were sucked into that door. Though it nourished the brain
cells, it did not open the door. The properties of the second pill were aggressive. I borrowed its energy
and opened the door.”
“What door? How can there be a door in the human brain?”
Mabel exined, “The door is like the outline of the skull, a kind of structure of the body''s mechanism.
If the door is opened as soon as we''re born, we won''t be able to survive. There are too many cells in
there that will absorb all the nutrients. It''s a kind of self-defense mechanism in the body. It''s also one of
the rules of Destino Art.”
Jonathan found her words made sense. He sighed. “It''s really difficult to get to your current level. Even
if you let the ordinary people know the ways to achieve it, very few people can achieve the level of
Divine Master.”
Mabel agreed, “That''s right. If it weren''t for your two Heaven Pills, I would''ve never broken through
Celestial Soul.”
“So, what happened after you opened the door?”
Mabel''s face instantly lit up with excitement, and she said, “I saw billions of cells and something like a
huge Braincore power station that can send out strong signals. The so-called mana is the signal. Once
the signal has reached a certain level of power, it can directly condense the maic field in the air to
form the brain of the primordial spirit. The body is the maic field, while the mana is the mind of the
primordial spirit.”
Jonathan eximed, “I''ve met Lance, Emperor of Chanaea before!”
“What? You''ve met this legendary person?” Mabel asked as she was shocked.
Jonathan nodded. “Long story short, if it weren''t for Lance, you wouldn''t have gotten the two Heaven
Pills today. I wouldn''t have survived either.”
“What on earth happened?” Mabel asked hurriedly.
Hence, Jonathan recounted the events at Divine Realm. How Lance rescued him when he was in a
tight spot—thanks to Gideon and Oswald''s sabotage—and how Lance single-handedly conquered all
the skilled fighters of Divine Realm.
“Do you know what''s the most important thing?” Jonathan asked.
“What?”
Jonathan replied, “That was only a clone of Lance''s primordial spirit. His actual primordial spirit is still
trapped in a meteor stream in the void.”
Mabel''s jaw dropped in disbelief. “I can''t believe a Divine Master like that exists. We''re practically
insects inparison to Emperor of Chanaea.”
“Exactly. That means even if the body is trapped, the mind''s cultivation is boundless. I have no idea
how Lance managed to cultivate to that point.”
“Well, I do know some things about Lance.”
“Hmm?” Jonathan''s interest was piqued.
Mabel smiled. “Back then, Lance was still an expert in Special Security Bureau. However, he retired.
Anyway, many things happened, and it was all a mess. Lance fought fiercely against the enemies along
with our country. Though our country was developing peacefully back then, some forces that operated
in the dark were ferocious. If it weren''t for Lance''s effort that turned the tide, we won''t have the peaceful
life we have now.”
Pausing briefly, she added, “Then again, there were many things that science couldn''t exin back
then. That''s why Lance''s matters weren''t promoted to the public.”
Jonathan instantly had an epiphany, and his mind wandered again. “If I can be like Lance one day, I''ll
die without regrets.”
Mabel chuckled. “There will always be new talents in the world. You might have the chance!” Suddenly,
she shed a sly smile. “But then, Lance has many confidants, you know? Surely you have to learn this
from him?”
Jonathan knew Mabel was teasing him, but he responded seriously, “You don''t say. I''ve talked to Lance
about this before.”
Mabel was taken aback. “You even talked about this? Wow. You guys are really childish.”
“You''ve probably never experienced this kind of frustration. A woman''s mind is not asplicated as a
man''s. In a way, it''s like a kind of invisible shackle that has formed since ancient times. All a woman
needs is someone who loves them. Do you know what men need?”
Mabel mumbled, “Well, that''s not what I think. I believe I don''t need a man toplete my life.”
“I''m not discussing your sentimental views. In terms of cultivation, my power will weaken if I don''t work
hard. Sure, you can be totally focused, but there are some times when I can''t help but develop feelings
for women. When that happens, am I supposed to suppress my feelings or...”
Mable answered, “Of course, you can''t do that. If you suppress your emotions, you''ll feel suffocated.
That''ll affect your cultivation.”
“That''s exactly what Lance said too. He says this matter depends on the rules. If you''re an ordinary
person, then you have to follow the rules of an ordinary person. If you want to seed yet stick to the
rules, then problems will surely arise.”
Mabelmented, “A yboy like you will be worse if you don''t control yourself.”
Jonathan could not help but wail, “Oh, please. Would I be like this if I were a yboy?”
Of course, Mabel was just joking. She knew well that Jonathan was only flirtatious verbally, but he
always knew where to draw the line.
“Anyway, that''s your trouble to worry about,” she said.
“All right. Let''s not talk about this. What are you nning to do in the future? You''ll need elixir pills more
than ever in Divine Master level, right?”
Mabel''s serious expression returned. “Yep. It''ll be best if I have elixir pills for it''ll make things easier.
Even people like the Divine Emperor need elixir pills. Otherwise, he''d never have created an alchemy
department in Divine Realm for no reason.” Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org.
Jonathan asked, “Then, where are you going to get the elixir pills?”
