"As I expected, it still won't work."
Jiang Yan shook his head and muttered to himself.
"As befits the Human Supreme, the forbidden technique she laid down is indeed formidable. Although I've completely mastered this Breaking the Forbidden Technique, I can only break through the outermost layer of her seal."
"If I try to force my way deeper, I'll inevitably cause the Vermilion Bird Forbidden to fluctuate violently. She'll surely notice then, and that would be troublesome."
"It seems that if I want to break through a forbidden technique of this caliber completely, I'll have to keep improving this Breaking the Forbidden Technique."
But...
Now there was a problem.
Thinking this, Jiang Yan summoned the Cultivation Technique Modifier. Seeing that the Weird Value he had accumulated before had already fallen to zero, he shook his head.
Without Weird Value to fuel it, he could only rely on arduous cultivation to break through the limit of the ninth layer. He had no idea how many years that would take.
That left only one option: build up quantity until it became quality, and find a way to obtain Weird Value.
Jiang Yan pondered, his gaze inadvertently sweeping toward the depths of the earth and piercing through layer after layer of obstacles.
He knew full well that an incredibly dense mass of earth-vein Killing Intent had gathered deep underground. This was true chaos, and the perfect breeding ground for the Weird. There were bound to be Weird down there.
"Though the Weird underground might not be very powerful, there should be plenty of them. If I can kill enough to build up an enormous amount of Weird Value and improve the Breaking the Forbidden Technique again, then in the end, I may well be able to break this Vermilion Bird Forbidden."
"Let's go."
