Battle and Sex Is All A Primordial Fiend Needs-Chapter 39 The Solution

Alexia usually had her AI keeping track of tenants, especially those she considered unruly, but given the condition he had left her in before his departure, he had expected her to pop out when he passed through the corridor of their apartment floor, but seeing as she didn't, he guessed that she wasn't home.

"That woman can be quite the troublemaker"

With the chaos he had caused during his adventure to Longsam canyon, he had kind of expected to be a wanted man by now and maybe an assassin hiding and waiting for him somewhere on this floor, but in the end, he walked into his apartment without the slight disturbance.

He went to his room and kept his new most valued treasure, his orange juice, and then immediately hit the shower.

After showering, he didn't bother to dress as he just slumped into the office chair in his wardrobe with only a towel around his waist.

Rose had pushed a few of his buttons today and were it any other person he would have killed them or made plans to, but when it came to rose all he felt was annoyance.

"Not like I can kill her even if I wanted to," Seth thought mockingly.

With a sigh he moved his thoughts from that of Rose to finding the solution to the source of his problems, Seth currently had a lot of problems, but they were all caused by a single one, his lack of power, and this was as a result of his stagnating cultivation.

From playing around with his new powers and fucking Alexia, to his gruesome massacre of almost the entire hammer gang, to him somehow killing a rank 7 beast in a fit of hunger, and finally to him putting up a tough fight against a rank 8 beast.

Some of them were things that would require at least two Kaisers and a 3rd stage general, yet he had done them all while still at the middle cadet stage, but still, he couldn't feel an inkling of even being close to a breakthrough.

This mystery had puzzled him, but after the enlightenments he had received from his night session with Sonia and his subsequent encounter with mama Slowly, Seth believed he had arrived at the reason for his lack of progress.

[Battle and sex is all you need],

Those had been the last words of that terrifying entity to him before it went into slumber, and so far he had seen the incredible benefits of him having sex.

While sex granted others a means to show their love for one another, derive pleasure, and procreate, sex granted Seth enlightenment.

Enlightenment, a state where one connects with higher powers to receive understanding on certain teaches or be given a chance to get the favor of certain entities, yet for Seth enlightenment was like a point he received when he had sex, with the right amount of it and adequate strength, he could access the teachings of higher powers and even wield their abilities.

Theoretically, with his enlightenment sphere, he should have no cultivation bottlenecks throughout his life, but here he was stuck at a beginner level of cultivation, this could only mean the problem came from the first need, battle.

Without much thought, Seth had assumed battles just meant he needed to fight harder, but with all the fights he had engaged in, that thought had already been debunked long ago.

His ponderings on the cause of his cultivation stagnation combined with help from the enlightenment sphere had brought Seth back to the night of his transformation and bloodline awakening.

Back then, he had advanced to the middle stage and assumed it was a benefit of the transformation, but he could still remember the look of disappointment in Rose's eyes when she found out that he went up by only a single minor stage, even earlier today she had been troubled by his lack of cultivation progress and had even swallowed her pride to suggest that she might have made a mistake in his transformation.

Seth would be a fool to think Rose wasn't a prideful woman, he was sure that were it any other man that tried to do the things he did to her, they would have died on the first day of their meeting, yet for some reason, Rose tolerated his presence with ease.

If even she was stunned by his lack of progress to the point of doubting herself and even admitting it, then this was more than enough proof that the problem wasn't with his cultivation because he knew for a fact that transformation had been hijacked from under Rose's control by that entity and if it were to have made a mistake, then he was doomed.

Now with his cultivation declared free from being the cause of his stagnation, what was then the problem, it was at this stage that the enlightenment sphere gave him essential help.

"What if he had been asking the wrong question all this while?"

"He shouldn't be asking about why he couldn't advance", ｂ𝚎𝚍𝚗𝚘𝚟𝚎ｌ.ｎｅｔ

"The right question should be how he advanced to the middle cadet stage"

Like his mind had been struck by lightning, a flurry of thoughts flowed through his head faster than ever,

With cultivation declared free of blame and eliminated from the equation, he asked himself,

" why had he advanced?"

"Was there any special event that had happened before his advancement?"

And like a calmly flowing stream, the answer calmly flowed into his mind, he had been fighting for his life, and he remembered the wonderful feeling and enhancements that he had briefly felt when he fought the hammer gang, those same enhancements were what he had been gotten when he had fought the grade 0 wolves, they were the only reason he fought so hard and survived so long, but unfortunately, after his bloodline awakening, he had gotten a power far above what he had received in that wonderful state, so he hadn't given any thought to those enhancements and wasn't even able to associate them with the enhancements he had gotten when he fought the hammer gang as the enhancement at that time had been several levels above what he had gotten the first time.

"Do I need to be in a life-and-death battle to advance?" Seth thought then shook his head, no I think its worse,

"No, I have to live through a life and death battle to advance". Seth grimly concluded.

Other than fighting the wolves, Seth had never been in a life and death battle, the hammer gang was just a testing ground for his newly gotten strength, he could have just crushed Fahren and the other three people's souls with his soul sense or stunned them with his soul sense and then pick them off, and as for fighting mama Slowly, Rose had stopped the battle before it could reach a point where death was a possibility for him.

Seth was 99% sure that he was right about what he needed to do to advance, and this was all because of the events that took place before he first advanced to the cadet level.

[A brutal fight occurred when he and two of his friends got ambushed by a rivaling gang, he was a serious threat to all gang with his fighting skills, it was 50 against 3 and in the end, he was bleeding all over and barely standing up, surrounding him were the dead bodies of his friends and that of the rival gang, he was the only survivor, death was approaching and the last thing he saw was the face of a woman who would later become his annoying landlady.]

"What kind of a cruel bloodline do I have in me," Seth thought with a smile on his face and a lick of his lips, the thought of battles to come exciting him.

"Now all that is left is for me to pick a target and prove my theory".
