After Xu Mo had shared everything he knew with her,
Emma eagerly entered her room to cultivate the secret technique.
Xu Mo, meanwhile, headed to another villa less than two kilometers away.
Wanda and Pietro lived there.
One reason for arranging for the White Queen to stay nearby was to protect Wanda and Pietro.
With her Telepathy, Emma could keep watch over everything here at any time.
As soon as Xu Mo entered the villa, he saw Pietro outside on the lawn, doing frog jumps with a barbell on his shoulders.
After nearly a month of training and nourishment from ferocious beast meat,
Pietro's strength had now surpassed eight hundred kilograms. He was not far from reaching the level of a Prospective Martial Warrior.
Even carrying a barbell weighing over two hundred pounds, he still moved with remarkable ease.
After wiping the sweat from his face, Pietro happened to spot Xu Mo coming in. His eyes lit up, and he tossed the barbell from his shoulders before rushing over to hug Xu Mo.
"Hey, Xu, you're finally back!"
Xu Mo smiled and patted him on the shoulder.
"Looks like you've made quite a bit of progress lately!"
At that, Pietro's face lit up with excitement.
"It's unbelievable. It's absolutely incredible!"
"Do you know how strong I am now? More than eight hundred, nearly nine hundred pounds! My running speed is close to twenty meters per second too. If I competed in the Olympics now, I'd win gold medals until my hands went numb!"
Seeing him gesticulate excitedly, Xu Mo smiled faintly.
No wonder Pietro had gone to compete in the Olympics after awakening the Speed Force. That mindset really was deeply ingrained in him.
"Calm down, Pietro!"
"You should know that according to the cultivation method I gave you, you don't even count as having started!"
"Fine!"
Hearing Xu Mo's advice, Pietro gradually calmed down.
"Oh, right, Wanda is in the backyard!"
Pietro pointed behind him.
Xu Mo nodded.
"Keep at it!"
With that, he headed toward the back of the villa.
When he entered the backyard, Wanda was holding a pair of small scissors and carefully trimming the flower branches.
Xu Mo walked right up behind her without her noticing.
It was not until he wrapped an arm around her waist that Wanda suddenly jumped.
Her scissors nearly stabbed the person behind her before she realized it was Xu Mo.
Letting out a breath of relief, Wanda lowered the hand holding the scissors.
"If you do that again, I can't guarantee these scissors won't stab you!"
Xu Mo did not take it seriously.
Even if her scissors really came down, they could not possibly hurt him.
With a light wave of his right hand, a bouquet of roses appeared in Xu Mo's hand.
"Wow!"
Wanda accepted the bouquet that had suddenly appeared in his hand, a delighted smile appearing on her face.
"Is this magic?"
"Of course!"
Xu Mo shamelessly admitted it.
Then he tidied Wanda's somewhat messy hair.
"You two have been through a lot lately, forced to hide away in a place like this!"
But after hearing that, Wanda showed a faint smile.
"Not at all. I actually think this life is pretty nice. I get to tend flowers and plants every day, and I don't have to worry about making a living. It's so much better than how we lived in Sokovia!"
"Don't worry. This situation won't last much longer!"
After resting in the villa for a night, Xu Mo returned to the manor.
He sat in the manor's training room.
Xu Mo first opened his status panel.
[Name: Xu Mo] [Age: 20] [Strength: 103560 kg] [Speed: 390 m/s] [Psychic Force: 408600 kg] [Special Ability: None] [Points: 34160]
After a period of time, with the Spiritual Core in his mind, his strength, speed, and Psychic Force had all improved considerably.
After killing several hundred vampires, his points had risen back to over thirty thousand.
However, he did not plan to exchange them for anything yet.
Repeatedly using the Spirit of Plants and Trees could naturally raise his strength by a great deal, but at most, it would only allow him to reach the Peak Wargod level. Breaking through to the Planetary Level was absolutely impossible.
Besides, it was not suitable to frantically use the Spirit of Plants and Trees to increase his strength in such a short period of time.
It would be better to save enough points and directly exchange them for a treasure that could help him break through.
There were quite a few such treasures.
Wood Ya Essence, Crimson Flame Fruit, Condensing Light Grass, Heavenly Lightning Liquid...
Any one of them could directly raise a martial warrior's strength to the Planetary Level.
And the cheapest, Wood Ya Essence, only required a little over fifty thousand points.
He was only short by around twenty thousand points. He believed he would be able to gather them soon enough.
Since he did not intend to exchange for treasures for the time being, the only way to increase his strength was to improve his force amplification.
Xu Mo had now cultivated [Thunder Blade] to the third level, giving him a force amplification of 3.
He could unleash twice his original strength.
His Psychic Force amplification had reached 6.
He could control six throwing knives simultaneously, with each knife maintaining his maximum force.
By comparison, Psychic Force was easier to improve.
As for the Psychic Force secret technique, he had chosen one called [Demonic God Codex].
The codex contained a total of ninety-nine diagrams.
Each diagram was a complex three-dimensional image of a demonic god.
With a thought, the seventh diagram appeared in his mind.
The further along the diagrams went, the more complex they became.
The seventh depicted a winged demonic god with a human body. Its entire form was outlined by threads of Psychic Force.
After Xu Mo studied it carefully for a moment,
His Psychic Force instantly burst forth, transforming into golden threads that interwove and combined in the air before him.
Before long, half of the demonic god's body appeared in midair.
As more and more threads of Psychic Force formed, Xu Mo felt himself struggling more and more.
"Not good!"
Finally, at a certain moment, Xu Mo could no longer maintain the intricate threads in the air. The phantom of the demonic god formed from Psychic Force exploded and dissipated into the air.
Xu Mo sighed.
After resting for a moment, he began outlining it in the air once more.
The sign of successful cultivation was to draw the complete form of the demonic god within one minute.
Cultivation was always tedious.
Over the following period of time, Xu Mo remained in the villa, continuously improving his Psychic Force amplification.
After nearly a month,
He directly increased his Psychic Force amplification to 12!
Moreover, this constant process of exhausting his Psychic Force also counted as another form of cultivation.
The intensity of his Psychic Force continued to increase as well.
His Psychic Force had now reached 432 tons.
While controlling twelve daggers at once, their combined impact could reach over five thousand tons.
"It's time to deal with Old Wan's threat once and for all!"
Xu Mo stood on the villa balcony. With a flash, he vanished into the sky.
