Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!
Ye Han flashed like lightning across an open stretch of ground, his figure flickering and drifting unpredictably at incredible speed...
Whoosh!
Ye Han came to a stop atop a large rock, delight spreading across his face. He murmured, "Not bad at all! I've only cultivated Ninefold Lightness to the fourth stage, and it's already reduced the gravity fourfold!"
As he spoke, Ye Han looked into the distance, determination settling over his face. "Then it's time to keep moving. Reaching the Fifth Layer won't be so easy. I'd also need Lightness Pills to help me break through, so there's no need for that!"
Indeed, after obtaining the Ninefold Lightness divine ability from Saint As, Ye Han had begun studying and cultivating it.
Fortunately, Ninefold Lightness was not a particularly profound cultivation technique, and with Ye Han's current cultivation and comprehension, it was not difficult to practice.
Once Ye Han mastered the first stage of Ninefold Lightness, he felt the gravity acting on him in the Second Heaven diminish more than a hundredfold.
This greatly bolstered Ye Han's confidence and made him value Ninefold Lightness all the more. He immediately began cultivating the second stage, and after mastering it, the gravity had diminished more than two hundredfold...
At the third stage, it had diminished nearly five hundredfold, becoming roughly equivalent to the gravity in the First Heaven, or even a little lighter.
He had only just mastered the fourth stage, which reduced it more than seven hundredfold-halving the fifteen-hundredfold gravity. With Ninefold Lightness active, Ye Han's speed had increased beyond measure.
If he encountered the Giant Tree Spirit's pursuit again now, he could activate Ninefold Lightness and flee with his Acceleration Divine Ability. Even if the Giant Tree Spirit were a little faster, it would still be unable to
