Battle Through the Heavens: Obtaining the Extraction System at the Start

Dan Chen landed gracefully, her white robes fluttering as she brushed the dust from her skirt. At Cao Ying's words, she gave a slight nod, her voice gentle yet firm. "You flatter me, Sister Cao Ying. I've merely gained a few shallow insights into the use of Soul Power lately and was fortunate enough to improve a little. It is nothing worth mentioning."

She raised her eyes to Cao Ying, sincerity filling her clear gaze. "Sister Cao Ying, your talent in Soul Power cultivation has always been exceptional. You are also free-spirited and unrestrained, and your control over Soul Power has long reached perfection. This time, I merely relied on the convenience of my Special Physique and happened to grasp a few tricks. Given time, Sister Cao Ying will certainly break through your current limitations. Your path of improvement will only be smoother than mine."

Cao Ying let out a soft laugh, her voice as crisp as silver bells. "You really know how to talk, girl. Still, you are right. Such an interesting contest should definitely happen more often in the future."

The lingering Soul Power around her gradually withdrew, and her bewitching aura faded somewhat, leaving behind a touch more casual ease.

A faint smile lingered on Dan Chen's lips as she nodded lightly. "Naturally, I would be happy to accompany you. Sparring with Sister Cao Ying always helps me notice my own shortcomings. I gain a great deal from it."

The two stood facing each other from afar. Though they had just gone through an intense battle, there was not the slightest hostility in their words. Instead, there was an unusual tacit understanding between them.

The lingering energy ripples within the mountain ravine gradually dissipated. Morning light filtered through the branches and leaves, falling upon the two women.
