Who Would Still Be a Gigolo After Transmigrating into Coiling Dragon

By the same token, Simon speculated that the Profound Truth of Sound, composed of the remaining Profound Mystery of Sound Waves and Profound Mystery of Sound Music of the Wind Laws, as well as the Wind Body Technique composed of the Wind Movement Technique and Clone Technique, and the Profound Mystery of Dimension, were all different manifestations of the Wind Element Essence. By finding this specific manifestation, the corresponding profound mysteries could be found and comprehended.

After reaching this deduction, Simon felt that his understanding of the Law of Wind had deepened significantly.

Similarly, the Law of Water followed this same principle.

Indeed, in elemental laws, the element itself is the most critical component.

Thinking of this, Simon's mind was flooded with numerous possibilities for fusing the Wind Element Essence with the Profound Mystery of Speed and the Profound Mystery of Slowness. With the correct direction as his guide, Simon easily discarded a vast number of impossible fusion methods, eventually finding the one and only correct answer amidst the sea of aimless possibilities.

Finally, after grasping the core of the elemental laws, it took Simon only half a day to successfully fuse the Wind Element Essence with the Profound Mystery of Speed and the Profound Mystery of Slowness.

"Although I have long known the importance of basic elemental profound mysteries within the elemental laws, knowing is one thing, but only after truly comprehending them do you understand the underlying logic. Fortunately, I realized this not too late. It seems that all future law fusions must use basic elemental profound mysteries as the link. Presumably, only in this way can one travel further on the path of laws."

Simon felt fortunate for today's discovery; compared to this, fusing three profound mysteries was only a minor gain.

His Water Element Divine Clone also adjusted its strategy in time, prioritizing the fusion of profound mysteries that were compatible with the Water Element Essence, such as the Profound Mystery of Round Softness and the sharpness of ice, while simultaneously searching for their points of compatibility through the Water Element Essence.

Now, Simon had already fused the Water Element Essence with the Profound Mystery of Round Softness for the most part, and the sharpness of ice had also been largely fused with the Water Element Essence.

However, Simon was in no rush to continue the fusion at this moment. Instead, he patiently analyzed the commonalities between the Water Element Essence and other profound mysteries, striving to find the point of compatibility between the Profound Mystery of Round Softness and the sharpness of ice.

As Simon delved deeper into his research, he truly discovered that the Profound Mystery of Mist Illusion was the ultimate expression of the Water Element Essence's vaporized and illusory side.

The Profound Mystery of Round Softness was the ultimate expression of the Water Element Essence's soft and resilient side.

The sharpness of ice was the ultimate expression of the Water Element Essence's hard and cold side.

Although these were diametrically opposed manifestations of the Water Element Essence, they could all be perfectly converted through the Water Element Essence. Based on this, Simon successfully found the imperceptible connection between them.

After realizing this, Simon successfully made the Profound Mystery of Round Softness and the sharpness of ice compatible.

Continuing his deep deduction, the Water Body Technique, which Simon had not yet mastered, was the manifestation of the Water Element Essence in the form of a physical body. To achieve this, one must first achieve complete fusion between the soul and the Water Element Essence, then fuse the body with the Water Element Essence, and finally reach the realm of the body merging with water by completely elementalizing both body and soul.

Thinking of this, Simon couldn't wait to try fusing his soul with the Water Element Essence. Because Simon's soul was extremely powerful and he was intimately familiar with the Water Element Essence, he successfully found the method to fuse his soul with the Water Element Essence after only a few attempts.

Simon continued to try fusing his body with the Water Element Essence. With the experience of the soul fusion, this time Simon only needed one attempt to merge his body into the Water Element Essence.

Then, he attempted to fuse both his soul and body into the Water Element Essence simultaneously.

With his previous experience, Simon successfully merged both his body and soul into the Water Element Essence in a single attempt, which meant he had successfully mastered the Water Body Technique.

Because mastering the Water Body Technique was closely related to the Water Element Essence, shortly after mastering it, Simon successfully made it compatible with the Water Element Essence.

In this way, Simon had successfully made the Water Element Essence compatible with the Profound Mystery of Mist Illusion, the sharpness of ice, and the Profound Mystery of Round Softness within the Law of Water!

Now, only the Profound Mystery of Water Ripple remained for the Water Element, which he had yet to master.

Simon was not in a hurry regarding this; after all, one cannot digest too much at once, and what he had currently comprehended was enough for him to ruminate on for quite some time.

Simon felt that today was truly a good day. Not only did he successfully fuse three profound mysteries of the Wind Law and master the Water Body Technique, making all four major profound mysteries of the Water Law compatible, but he also managed to make the newly mastered Water Body Technique compatible with the Water Element Essence in one go.

Once the Water Body Technique was made compatible with the other three profound mysteries, Simon would have the potential to fully fuse five profound mysteries within the Law of Water.

Chapter 37: Eve of the Assessment

All of this was attributed to his realization today of the importance of basic elemental profound mysteries.

Although Simon had already mastered both the Wind Element Essence and the Water Element Essence to a high degree, from his current perspective, his understanding of these two basic elemental profound mysteries remained superficial and not deep enough; there were still many areas that required further excavation.

And these areas awaiting excavation were precisely where Simon would make progress in the laws in the future.

This made Simon sigh at the wonder of the world of laws, and he felt his own insignificance even more keenly.

The more he progressed, the more Simon felt he knew little.

This also allowed him to maintain humility, never becoming complacent due to a little progress, nor discouraged by a temporary stagnation.

It was precisely this lack of arrogance and impatience that allowed Simon to maintain a steady state of mind.

Even when previously surrounded by over a thousand Midgods, he felt no fear.

Because he knew it wasn't these thousand-plus Midgods surrounding him, but rather him surrounding these thousand-plus Midgods.

It was also this calm and unflustered demeanor that deeply fascinated Fanny.

Even though Simon had not shown his full strength, Fanny still felt he was unfathomable. Those who underestimated him would certainly not meet a good end; those bandits were living examples.

Today's gains were already significant, so Simon stopped his closed-door cultivation and walked into the courtyard to admire the flowers and relax his mind.

It was early morning, and Fanny was also in the courtyard admiring the flowers.

She was surprised to see Simon arrive. "Eh, Simon, you only cultivated for one day this time? I thought you would cultivate straight until the day of the Fiend assessment."

"Cultivation also requires a balance of tension and relaxation. Besides, yesterday's gains were already significant, so it's good to rest and relax."

"What kind of gains? Enough to make you feel they are significant?"

"I was just about to share them with you. Fanny, you cultivate the Law of Fire, so you should know the importance of the Profound Mystery of Fire Element, right?"

"I know. My grandfather is a super expert who cultivates the Law of Fire. He repeatedly emphasized that the Profound Mystery of Fire Element is very important. He even told me many of his understandings, but I've always only half-understood them, and I can't fully grasp his insights."

Fanny said with distress.

"So you do know. Yesterday, I deeply understood the importance of basic elemental profound mysteries. My strength has had a major breakthrough, and I have a clear goal for future cultivation, which is why I said the gains were significant."

"Is that so? My grandfather once said that those who can discover the importance of basic elements on their own will not have low achievements in the future. He also discovered it when he was a Midgod trying to fuse profound mysteries, and from then on, he embarked on a fast track of rapidly increasing strength. I really envy you."

Fanny also knew that there was an insurmountable gap between her talent and that of top geniuses, but when it actually happened, she still felt a little sad.

However, seeing Simon understand this principle now, she was also very happy; it proved that Simon had the potential to become a super powerhouse.

Although my own cultivation talent isn't good enough, as long as my judgment is sharp, isn't that enough?

Fanny thought happily.

"Actually, there's no need to envy others. Everyone has their own path, and until the very end, no one can say for sure whose path is the right one; perhaps they are all right, or perhaps they are all wrong. What matters is to keep going."

Simon sighed with emotion.

He didn't know if the path he had discovered now was ultimately right or wrong; he could only test it through practice.

He believed that even among Paragon powerhouses of the same element, each had their own unique understanding of the Laws.

After all, every life is unique; as long as it suits oneself, that is enough.

After having a hearty breakfast with Fanny at a restaurant, Simon returned to his room to continue consolidating his insights.

With the Fiend assessment approaching, every bit of strength he gained would increase his chances of success. After all, he didn't know the specific content of the assessment yet, and even if the difficulty exceeded his expectations, as long as his strength was sufficient, he could handle it calmly.

Although he had fused the Profound Mystery of Wind Element with the Profound Mystery of Speed and the Profound Mystery of Slow, he hadn't developed his newest move yet.

Over the following time, Simon perfected the Sigh of the Wind once more.

After the Profound Mystery of Speed and the Profound Mystery of Wind Element were fully fused, both his movement speed and attack speed were significantly faster, his attack trajectories became more ethereal, and his destructive power surged accordingly.

After Simon's dedicated experimentation, the 2.0 version of the Sigh of the Wind was finally born several days later. When executed with full power using fused divine power, a single sword strike actually tore through the space of Hell!

Although it was only a narrow space crack a few centimeters long, it meant that Simon had reached the threshold of a Six-Star Fiend in terms of material attacks.

One must know that even when Fanny unleashed her full material attack, she still couldn't tear through the space of Hell.

The Wind Element was indeed one of the Laws most adept at material attacks.

With this move, Simon finally had the capital to trade blows with powerhouses in terms of attack power.

Next, Simon continued to refine the Sigh of the Wind until his attack power could no longer be improved; by this time, another half a month had passed.

During these fifteen days, both Simon's original body and his Wind Element Divine Clone had been researching attack techniques, while simultaneously nearly doubling their speed—the results were gratifying.

His Water Element Divine Clone hadn't been idle during this time either, fully focusing on fusing the Profound Mystery of Round Softness and the Water Element Essence. After such a long period of deduction and insight, especially after his previous epiphany, these two profound mysteries had now reached their final bottleneck.

The material and soul defenses based on this had both improved significantly.

In the blink of an eye, another ten days passed, and this day, the gate of the small courtyard was knocked upon.

Fanny opened the door.

"Hello, I am Tuwen, a staff member from the Fiend Castle. May I ask if you are the ones who signed up for the Fiend assessment?"

A male Midgod dressed in black standard-issue armor asked.

"Yes, that's us. My companion is still in cultivation; please wait a moment."

Saying this, Fanny ran back into the courtyard to wake Simon, who was immersed in his cultivation.

The two came to the door and showed their Fiend Badges to Tuwen. After Tuwen took them and carefully verified them, he said.

"The people for the Fiend assessment have been gathered. Please assemble in the lobby on the first floor of the Fiend Castle before nine o'clock tomorrow morning. The specific mission content and other precautions will be announced then. Remember to bring your Fiend Badges. I wish you a pleasant life and a safe return."

After speaking, Tuwen turned and left without any hesitation, as if he were in a hurry to notify others.

"We finally waited for it! Simon, we're going to participate in the assessment, are you afraid?"

"Isn't there the protection of Lady Fanny? What do I have to be afraid of?"

"Haha, that's right! With a powerhouse of my level—a Five-Star Fiend—a mere One-Star Fiend assessment is a piece of cake. Don't worry, follow me, and I guarantee you'll complete the assessment!"

Hearing Simon flatter her, Fanny was overjoyed, and her habit of bragging flared up again.

"Hehe, then I'll have to trouble Lady Fanny." Simon also played along with Fanny, and the two looked at each other and burst into laughter.

Neither Simon nor Fanny felt any worry about tomorrow's assessment. Although it was rumored outside that the success rate of the Fiend assessment was extremely low and the mortality rate was extremely high.

But that was relative to those ordinary Midgods. With the strength of the two of them, as long as they weren't going to attack a Seven-Star Fiend, there wouldn't be any danger.

On the night before the assessment, Simon practiced and perfected his defensive techniques once more to ensure he could trigger them at the first moment of crisis. At the same time, he took out the Wind-Annihilation Longsword that had been with him for hundreds of years and wiped it carefully, preparing for the upcoming assessment.

Back then, it was with this longsword that Simon had killed Elodi and Lachlan, and now this old companion was venturing through Hell with him.

As if it could feel the suppressed fighting spirit of its master, the Wind-Annihilation Longsword trembled incessantly, unable to wait to drink the blood of enemies.

The several battles since arriving in Hell had bathed the Wind-Annihilation Longsword in the blood of many god-level beings, and its own spirituality was becoming increasingly profound.

Feeling the fighting spirit emanating from the sword, Simon felt even more anticipation for the upcoming Fiend assessment.

Early the next morning, an excited Fanny knocked on Simon's door, clamoring to go early so as not to miss the time.

Simon saw that the blood-red sun hadn't even risen outside; it was at most six o'clock. It took less than half an hour to get from here to the Fiend Castle, so even if they went later, they wouldn't be late.

However, Simon didn't expose her, instead cooperating by getting up early to pack his things.

Fanny always acted like a curious child regarding things she had never experienced. In the more than one million years prior, she had lived in a greenhouse created by her family and had never experienced these things; to her, everything was so novel.
