Chapitre 31: Maybe Next Time
Aria's internal conflict was palpable. She knew that what she was about to do was morally questionable, but she couldn't resist the temptation.
As their lips drew closer to each other, she felt a rush of excitement and apprehension. A part of her wanted to pull away, but another part urged her to keep going.
She was aware that what was about to happen was morally wrong, but she found herself unable to prevent it.
As if something beyond her control was urging her on. Despite her inner conflict, she felt powerless to resist, and ultimately succumbed to her impulses.
Aria was at a loss, unsure of what to do as she found herself in a precarious situation.
Their faces were mere inches apart. A single movement by either of them could result in a kiss, a prospect that left her feeling both exhilarated and nervous.
"Thump." Her heart began to beat faster. She was afraid that Chen Tian could feel her heartbeat from such a distance.
"Ding x9"
As both of them were about to kiss. The sound of a chime suddenly resounded in his room—no, it echoed throughout the villa.
Aria was jolted awake by the sudden sound. Her eyes snapped open, and she recoiled in surprise. Her heart was racing. Her face felt hot and flushed as if a volcano was erupting beneath her skin.
Chen Tian, who was on top of her, was also startled by the sound and didn't notice Aria's sudden movement. Seizing the opportunity, Aria slipped out of bed as quickly as possible.
"I-I need to go!" She stuttered, scrambling out of bed and making a quick escape for the door. She didn't even look at Chen Tian, who was left feeling bewildered and confused.
"How could I do that?!" As she fled the room, she couldn't help but think to herself. Her heart was pounding in her chest as she rushed out of the room.
Chen Tian, who was left alone in his room, abruptly sat up on his bed. He was lost in thought as a deep sense of regret washed over him.
"What did I just do?" Chen Tian asked himself. It was the first time he had acted that way, and he felt like a beast ready to pounce on its prey.
"Was this the effect of the Primordial Yin-Yang Cultivation Technique?" Chen Tian could only think about the Primordial Yin-Yang Cultivation Technique because he didn't have another reason to act like that.
He had taken a bold step and done something like this to Aria.
Did he regret it?
No, he didn't.
What he regretted was not doing it.
And that's what shocked him. The more he gazed at Aria's face, Chen Tian was struck by an overwhelming desire for more. The mere sight of her features stirred within him an intense longing to kiss her.
"Damn it, why am I so unlucky?" He thought to himself. Chen Tian was frustrated as he didn't get the chance to kiss those soft lips.
"Ding x9"
The sound of chime sounded again, making him even angrier. He felt as though it had happened on purpose.
"Damn it!"
He realized that he could only sign, "Maybe next time."
After that, he got out of bed and opened his closet to find something decent to wear.
As he was getting ready, he remembered that he had learned about the Chaos Insight the day before, and he wanted to try it on himself.
However, he was too tired to do so yesterday. Now, he decided to use it before heading out to eat.
"Chaos Insight!" Chen Tian exclaimed as he activated the skill.
His once-blue eyes, now black, suddenly took on a blue hue as a screen materialized in his field of vision.

*******
Upon seeing his current status, Chen Tian's eyes widened in surprise as he gazed at the words "rank chaos" displayed before him.
"Oh heavens! It's chaos, rank!" Chen Tian exclaimed.
The sudden realization that the Heaven Devouring Chaos Technique is a chaos rank left Chen Tian feeling taken aback.
The Chaos Rank was something that even gods dreamed of getting their hands on.
If a god desired to obtain such a technique, they would need to spend countless eras and make numerous sacrifices to do so.
Even the Primordial Yin-Yang Cultivation technique that Guo Fucheng had found after a lot of trouble and danger was only half-Chaos, meaning it was close to having the Chaos rank.
Even if the Primordial Yin-Yang Cultivation Technique was not a Chaos-ranked technique, it didn't mean it was weak. It was still a terrifying technique that could make any cultivator fight for it.
"Now I have come to understand why they are incredibly OP." Chen Tian murmured.
"When I go back to the Tevat Continent, I'll try to go hunting for some spiritual beasts and try to use the Heaven Devouring Chaos Technique," Chen Tian decided, seizing the chance to improve his cultivation.
"Ah, that's right," Chen Tian exclaimed, also remembering about the Immortal Sword Sect's discipline selection.
"Now, where did I put that token?" He began searching for the small object he had received from the old man (Sect Leader).
After a minute of fruitless searching, Chen Tian's frustration mounted.
"I am such an idiot"
Just when he was about to give up, he remembered that it was still in the robe that Su Bingxin had given him.
After taking the black iron token, he inserted some spiritual Qi into it. The token began to emit a dim glow, and a number appeared on its surface, indicating that the exam was only two days away.
"Only 2 days left!" Chen Tian was surprised that the sect's selection would take place so soon.
"I must advance my cultivation to the Qi Refinement realm as quickly as possible."
In order to ensure that nothing happens, Chen Tian needed to reach the Qi Refinement realm.
According to what he had heard from Su Bingxin, some disciples from the Immortal Sword Sect were going to participate, and even the weakest among them should be at the 2nd Stage of the Qi Refinement Realm.
Therefore, if Chen Tian wanted to have a chance of success, he too needed to attain at least the Qi Refinement Realm.
"With that much time, there was no way I could go to the Tevat continent and use the Heaven Devouring Chaos Technique and if I go, I'm afraid I won't be able to make it to the birthday party tonight. Aunt will definitely kill me if I don't attend." Chen Tian thought.
Chen Tian had realized that he needed to find a way to increase his cultivation speed while still on Earth, as he wouldn't be able to travel to Tevat for this purpose. Therefore, he needed to explore alternative methods to enhance his abilities.
"Should I use the Primordial Yin-Yang Cultivation Technique?" Chen Tian thought while he believes it would be the perfect solution to his problem, he has reservations about using it on someone he doesn't know.
"Mm…, Oh! I completely forgot what that mysterious voice said to me when I was transported to Tevat. It said that Earth wasn't a simple place.
If what that voice said is true, then perhaps I have a chance to find something that could help me advance in my cultivation." After pondering for some time, Chen Tian suddenly came up with an idea.
"I can search for any location that is close to where I am living that might have ancient legends and go there, but first, let me grab some breakfast.
It seems like the others are already waiting for me."
With that, Chen Tian left his room and headed downstairs.
