225 What Would This Day Be Without More Interruptions? (1/2)
”Oh!” Suddenly, Elizabeth connected the dots. However, she had an odd look on her face as she asked Yrre, ”Don't you think it would be better to save returning back to that place for when I reach the peak of the Foundation Collapse Stage? You know, to get the most rewards possible.”
”I would recommend against that,” Yrre shook her head. ”After all, the most beneficial gains you'll receive from returning will only serve to solidify your foundation after each major breakthrough in your cultivation.”
Much to Elizabeth's irritation, Yrre took to gazing merrily through the Cloudrain Sector as she concluded, ”The only reason I neglected to bring this topic until now, was to make sure that your Cultivation Base was properly consolidated.”
Then as if it were of a trivial nature, she commented, ”Oh, and attaining a decent Understanding of Water was a nice addition as well.”
”Tsk, tsk,” Elizabeth vented her annoyance with a glare before she disregarded Yrre to announce, ”Alrighty then. Change of plans everyone.” Though to those listening closely, Elizabeth could be faintly heard saying ”again” with simmering internal fury.
”I'm going to make an interdimensional trip to pick up a friend,” She said, before literally fading out of existence with the activation of her Gateway Time Art.
…
After materializing in her personal suite within the Japanese Beach Resort she had used to train her Mage Apprentices, Elizabeth chanted, ”Detect,” to activate her self-created Spell, Ripple Sonar. Since at its lowest output, the Skill's range covered the entirety of the Beach Resort and then some, Elizabeth used a negligible amount of Space True Qi to scan for Jane's position.
Unfortunately, though she picked up various signatures from her scan, no one was in Jane's room. Thus, Elizabeth left to ask where she had gone.

As she made her way through the halls of the Beach Resort, Elizabeth smiled contently in knowing that the overwhelming majority of her apprentices were still hard at work, cultivating as they did when she was there to coach them personally.
Upon reaching the beachfront, Elizabeth went up to the closest apprentice she could find and unintentionally scared the boy half to death.
”M-master!” It amused Elizabeth to no end that a man almost five years her senior nearly fell on his back at the mere sight of her form.
”Relax, Samuel,” Elizabeth said. She waved her hands dismissively before her gaze sharpened. Continuing, ”Seems you've been cultivating hard. You're almost at the Peak Phase of the Mage Warrior Stage.”
”Master's praise is too much,” Samuel lowered his head, despite the smile on his face. ”Compared to Brother Jasper, I'm nothing special.”
”Don't play down your talent,” Elizabeth sighed helplessly as she continued, ”Unlike with Jasper, I couldn't impart a proper Cultivation Method to you.”
Unfortunately, like most of her apprentices, Samuel was part of the group that had an affinity for an Energy Elizabeth didn't cultivate. Unlike Jasper who could make use of Elizabeth's Darkyin Cultivation Method, Samuel had to do by meditating under the mantras of Martial Cultivation Methods.
”Fortunately,” Elizabeth continued as she smirked, ”I might just be able to give you some tips now.”
Coincidentally, Samuel happened to be the Water Mage Apprentice she had accepted. She might still be unable to provide a cultivation method for him, but at the very least, her Understanding of Water might lend some use.
”Show me your cultivation method,” she said.
She took the Jade Slip he provided, looked over it, and ran a Status check before the smirk on her face intensified.
[Status
Name: Seven Streams Cultivation Method
Grade: A
Description: An advanced Mortal Realm Martial Cultivation Method. Cultivating with this Cultivation Method will guide Practitioners all the up to the peak of the Martial King Stage. It can increase one's Water Affinity to Mediocre Tier, but due to the various incongruencies between the mantras and channeling routes of Inner Strength, the Cultivation Method remains fundamentally incomplete.]
Elizabeth produced a blank Jade Slip of her own before she started writing a revised version of the Seven Streams Cultivation Method. This being the second time she had done this, it amused her that the process this time was antithetical to her first time.
Unlike Jane's case, where the process more consisted of Elizabeth reconfiguring the channeling route of her 'Cultivation Method,' the Seven Streams' Cultivation Method was better benefited by Elizabeth's revised mantras. Before she had started training her Mage Apprentices, she had already revised all the channeling routes in their Cultivation Methods, anyway.
With Elizabeth's 55% Rudimentary Understanding Value of Water, any Mortal Grade Water Cultivation Method she came across could theoretically be revised to achieve a Grade of SSS. As expected, after she finished rewriting the cultivation method, a Status Check showed a veritable improvement.
[Status
Name: Elizabeth's Revised Seven Streams Cultivation Method
Grade: SSS+
Description: Revised from a Grade A Water Cultivation Method, the mantras of the Cultivation Method in this Jade Slip may guide Mage Practitioners of Water to the Spirit Realm.]
