"This little bit of relaxation was nothing!"
Huo Yu shook her head, directly casting off that trace of self-doubt.
Shopping, petting the Flame Beast Lion, taking baths—
Those were merely normal ways to relax. She spent the vast majority of her time cultivating.
Otherwise, the gap between her and them could not possibly have been narrowed by so little.
"So it wasn't that I relaxed too much. They were just too ridiculous!"
Qin Tian and the others trained at an intensity no normal person should have. She suspected they spent less than two hours a day relaxing.
Her pace was what normal people should call cultivation.
No, even her training time would be considered overworking herself by ordinary standards. She only gave herself four hours of rest each day.
The rest of her time, aside from cultivating, was spent carrying out missions.
Even those Mutant Creatures that had developed intelligence and reached the First Sequence could not possibly cultivate tirelessly every single day like they did.
Most of the time, they were enjoying themselves too.
They enjoyed the cautious offerings and service of the clans under their command, monopolized the finest Heavenly Treasures in their territories as snacks, and constantly expanded their domains through battle and intimidation for the thrill of it.
Did they cultivate? Of course they did, but they relied more on instinctively drawing in Spirit Energy or devouring treasures. Planned, high-intensity "cultivation" like theirs was absolutely an anomaly among anomalies for Mutant Creatures!
Cultivation felt good, and the growth of power was intoxicating, but it could never compare to true "enjoyment"!
Why was Huo Yu so certain?
Because she had fought enough Mutant Creatures at the First Sequence to the death.
