Chapter 822

Chapter 822 A Barrier Ameera was a teacher at Cloudmist Academy, so naturally, she was well–acquainted with the circumstances surrounding the Thundercloud Marsh.

Under normal circumstances, the Thundercloud Marsh would never make such a loud commotion even when being struck by lightning. It was only when someone ventured into the fourth layer that the thunderclaps would intensify.

Judging from the momentum just now, it was clear that Emrys had at least reached the fifth layer.

Sylvia looked at Emrys with a complex expression. This lunatic didn’t just barge into the fifth layer! He even crashed into the deepest, most forbidden layer!

However, Emrys didn’t say much. He just chuckled and scratched his head, saying, “I guess so!”

“Well? Not a single bolt of lightning struck you, did it?”

Ameera immediately became interested.

She certainly knew the answer, because if Emrys had been struck by lightning, there was no way he could be standing here, chatting with hier so nonchalantly as he was now.

Yet, she knowingly asked, fully aware of the answer.

Just like when they were children, their parents, eager to boast about their child’s good grades, would occasionally feign ignorance and ask how their children did on their test even though they already knew the score, It was all just for a bit of vanity.

A When Ameera posed the question, before Emrys could even respond, Ninette eagerly interjected, “Mom, you wouldn’t believe how impressive Emrys was just now! He nearly left everyone with their jaws on the floor!”

“Really? Ha! My wonderful son–in–law is just that outstanding!”

Ameera’s face lit up with joy, her heart brimming with happiness. He sure is a man of great fortune, truly worthy of being the Morris family’s son–in–law! He’s truly exceptional!

“Hmph, Cameron really lacks discernment. I have no idea where he got the courage to 91% 10:21 Chapter 822 A Barrier 3 challenge my outstanding son–in–law to cross the Thundercloud Marsh. Isn’t that just asking to be humiliated?”

With a face full of pride, Ameera immediately took Emrys‘ hand and said, “Come on, Emrys, you must be hungry. Let’s go home for dinner. I’ve personally cooked some food today.”

In this state, she was as passionate as one could be, treating Emrys as if he were already part of the family.

Emrys, however, was rather disrespectful.

Sylvia hesitated, wanting to speak but holding back. After some thought, she chose to remain silent.

The group returned to the Morris residence.

This particular dinner was indeed personally prepared by Ameera as a gesture of hospitality toward Emrys. However, the taste was indescribable.

After taking a couple of casual bites, Emrys earnestly said, “Mdm. Ameera, I have some questions about cultivation that I’d like to discuss with you.”

“Look at you, being so formal with me. Feel free to ask anything you want.”

Ameera had grown too weary to correct Emrys‘ way of addressing her. After all, once he married Ninette, he would inevitably have to change his form of address, so there was no rush for that.

After a moment of contemplation, Emrys asked, “Mdm. Ameera, how much do about the stage beyond the Golden Elixir Stage?”

you know Above the Golden Elixir Stage, there is the Nascent Soul Stage. This is a fact well–known to all cultivators. The reason behind Emrys‘ question surely isn’t as superficial as it seems.

Ameera slowly put down her fork, her expression growing more serious as she responded, “Emrys, are you trying to ask about the barrier that lies beyond the absolute–phase of Golden Elixir Stage?”

She was perceptive, instantly understanding what Emrys wanted to ask.

Emrys‘ heart gave a jolt.

I knew it! So, it wasn’t just me who felt that barrier!

Chapter 822 A Barrier Ameera was only at the middle–phase of the Golden Elixir Stage, yet she was able to speak of the existence of that barrier. This indicated that the matter had become common knowledge, no longer a secret exclusive to those who had reached the absolute–phase of the Golden Elixir Stage.

Emrys nodded and asked, “Can you share it with me?”

After a moment of contemplation, Ameera said, “By now, you must have sensed the existence of that barrier. It’s not really a secret, so there’s no harm in telling you.”

Truth be told, this barrier did not exist in the past. Transitioning from the peak of the Golden Elixir Stage to the Nascent Soul Stage merely required breaking through the stage barrier. However, everything changed about twenty years ago, starting with the closure of Mount Jacaster.”
