“Do you may have a flying treasure you need to use?” Xi Son requested as soon as I arrived subsequent to him.
“Sure, however I would fairly not pull any undesirable consideration, the legal guidelines in opposition to flight and such…” I trailed off hinting at how this metropolis forbade flight inside it.
“Not at the moment no. That treasure as you may have talked about wanted the ability of a Nascent Soul cultivator, although I’m such a cultivator, I dare not danger unlocking the content material of the field in a metropolis stuffed with consultants lest one among them senses it and scry upon us utilizing their Devine Sense.” Xi Son defined.
“I agree, then, the place do you want we open the field?” I requested.
“I’ve a location in thoughts, please comply with me,” Xi Son said and we each left headed to town’s gate.
As soon as away from the gate and off preying eyes, Xi Son pulled out a flying sword from his pouch and hopped on it.
I did the identical, fortunately I had the decency of thoughts to really suppose beforehand and place the flying sword in a pouch that belonged to a kind of cultivators from the Poison God’s cave.
As soon as I pulled the sword I stepped on it, whereas noticing the ogling gaze of Xi Son.
Now, right here, that was harmful, primarily as a result of, if what he stated was true, and I doubt it might be a lie, he’s a Nascent Soul Cultivator, which implies he’s not less than two nice realms stronger than me, and even a small layer is a distinction between heaven and earth amongst cultivators, to not point out a realm that has 9 layers.
So, any sane man ought to now be shaking in fright, pondering that this Nascent Cultivator had been enthusiastic about their treasure. For anybody apart from me, they’d have supplied the sword in peace simply to protect their lives. However I, I used to be fairly resistant to such threats, even when they had been most likely unfounded. And I had two robust causes that will preserve me protected, the primary, with out me, Xi Son would by no means be capable to unlock the field. And the second is straightforward sufficient, I simply completed making a puppet that kicks ass. Although I do not know if it might fare properly in opposition to a Nascent Cultivator. One punch at ten % is powerful sufficient to interrupt a bolstered wall. Irrespective of how robust that man’s physique, a punch from my puppet will damage.
“Let’s go,” Xi Son stated after what he deemed sufficient time spent ogling my treasure whereas I did not adhere to his gaze.
The 2 of us flew south, and we continued the tempo. However after a number of hours of fixed flight, I needed to begin popping ‘drugs’ earlier than I turned too suspicious. Merely put, I am a Basis Institution cultivator, whereas he was a Nascent Soul cultivator, he would have larger Non secular Qi reserves and would be capable to assist his flight, whereas my Qi reserves ought to diminish. If I had been to showcase that I used to be nonetheless totally able to matching and maintaining together with his pace, then roots of greed would sprout in his spirit. And the very last thing I would like is to provide a stronger particular person extra causes to need my issues.
“Junior Shen Bao,” Xi Son stated, “Ought to we decelerate? I do not want to see you exhausted earlier than our journey reaches its finish.”
“No worries, I’ve sufficient drugs to maintain this tempo for a number of days.” It was a blatant lie, even when my flying Sword was consuming up my Poison Qi like mad, I nonetheless had sufficient vitality to maintain this tempo for weeks. Apparently, the time I spent cooped up inscribing wasn’t for naught, as a aspect impact, a constructive one, I can make full use of my Qi utilizing my Thoughts’s Eye, an perception that I passively gained after days upon days of fixed focus on inscription. Now it got here in helpful, micromanaging the vitality that I am expending, and utilizing the minimal of it to its most potential in powering the sword.
As for the drugs, I used to be consuming, they had been just a few weak poison Capsules that I discovered in one of many cultivator pockets, it would not do me any hurt to have a snack whereas flying.
But even whereas popping these drugs like tic-tacs, I’ve but to Breakthrough the subsequent layer. I am shocked to have spent a lot time within the first layer of Basis Institution, however I can not be too rash about it, not less than for my earlier progress I had the Sect Grasp of the Purple Cloud sect as a poison supply to energy me up, as for now, I will should accept lesser poisons.
Hours after hours of flight, the primary mild of daybreak breaks earlier than Xi Son talked about that we arrived.
Although I do not know why we needed to get so removed from the capital, I will not be judging him, not less than proper now I do not know the vary of a Nascent Soul cultivator’s Divine Sense. However at this distance, I doubt anybody from the capital would have vary sufficient to spy on us.
There was a small cottage constructed in the midst of nowhere, proper beneath a big oak tree in what gave the impression to be a thinly packed forest.
We entered the cottage and Xi Son invited me to a dusty seat.
I wiped it as a lot as I might earlier than sitting, and as soon as I used to be on the chair I took a second to survey my surrounding. The cottage was previous, maybe it belonged to Xi Son or some particular person that did not come right here in a very long time. Additionally seeing that it nonetheless had its wears and wasn’t infringed upon by some random animal or somebody looking for shelter, it involves thoughts that this place had been deserted for a very long time.
Xi Son waved his hand and the mud on the desk, chair, and all of the wears on this small hut was swooped out the door. Neat trick, I might study this, not less than this might assist clear up the home that Zei Fen had gifted me. Again to our matter, I am getting distracted.
Xi Son positioned the dice in entrance of me and stated, “Are you able to unlock it?”
“Sure, however I will require your assist, the bit a couple of Nascent Soul cultivator I stated was true. With out thicker Non secular Qi, I can not put sufficient vitality to energy this factor up.” I answered.
“Proper then, what am I presupposed to do.” Xi Son politely requested.
“You see this image right here?” I pointed on the centermost image within the field, “You should pour in your religious Qi in it and on the identical time provide all different 5 faces of the dice the identical quantity of vitality. As soon as the dice is sated, it would launch its locking mechanism and show what’s inside it.” I replied.
The person nodded and started pouring his vitality into the dice.
After a number of seconds of no seen change, Xi Son frowned, pondering that I lied to him and was most likely attempting to empty his vitality to kill him, or so his expressions portrayed.
However quickly sufficient the dice started shuddering, proving that what I stated was true and the frown on Xi Son quickly turned to an expression of pleasure and anticipation.
The extra the dice shuddered the extra Xi Son poured his vitality, and after some time and what gave the impression to be an exhausting quantity of Non secular Qi wasted into the unsatiated Dice, the small six-faced little black gap opened up.
The dice’s faces fell to the aspect revealing nothing inside them, to the frustration of Xi Son.
“There may be nothing inside!” he stated, angered but huffing with exertion. His exhaustion proved him an individual of a prudish thoughts, but I could not fault him, he sees himself as a weak particular person proper now with all of the expenditure, and in danger.
“No, there may be all the pieces,” I corrected. “The treasure is not presupposed to be contained in the field, however the field itself.” I took the six faces of the dice and positioned them subsequent to one another, making an oblong piece.
“Look,” I stated as I poured a smidgen of my Qi on the dice’s faces.
The Qi unfold alongside seamless and invisible strains alongside the dice’s inside faces drawing a map that shone in a dim inexperienced aura, my poison aura.
“This… fascinating!” Xi Son stated.
I saved gazing on the map, unable to find out the place this location might be, Xi Son interjected.
“I do know this mountain, it is Luo-Luo mountain, it is a number of days journey west of right here, this additionally, I consider I do know this area.” The person contemplated as he shared his ideas.
“Include me, I would like to find this place alongside a wise particular person reminiscent of you.”
That is probably the most blatant lie I’ve ever heard in my life, merely put, this man deduced that if the map required such effort and ‘smartness’ to grasp, then the situation that this map pointed to would require the identical psychological exertion. Thus, if he had been to desert me and go alone, he was certain to get caught in some kind of lure that his mind cannot work out.
“I would be delighted to return alongside,” I replied, in spite of everything, I’ve no strategy to refuse him, even when I am totally able to annihilating him utilizing X, I would fairly preserve X a secret, in spite of everything, it might be finest to have this man exhaust himself in no matter location this map results in than if I needed to depend on myself to do all of the guide work if I had been to kill him right here and now.
Xi Son then pulled a capsule and popped it in his mouth, it did not take greater than a second earlier than he was stuffed with vitality. Fortunately I did not strive something silly, now that I do know even after he had exhausted himself totally, he nonetheless had a capsule that may invigorate him, if I had been to stupidly assault him whereas he was weak, nothing lower than a killing blow could be sufficient to avoid wasting me from his retaliation.
Xi Son pulled his sword and flew within the course of the Luo-Luo mountain. And after days of fixed exhausting journey, we arrived on the stated location. It was an open airplane with nothing spectacular about it, and following the traces on the map, there was presupposed to be an entry to a cave someplace round this area.
A wave of pervasive vitality shot via me, it lingered for a fraction of a second earlier than taking pictures off within the distance, and in that fraction of a second, I felt myself bare in opposition to the gaze of such a strong entity.
‘In order that’s Devine Sense.’ I construed.
Frowning the person checked out me and stated, “I can not seem to discover something right here. My divine sense is not detecting any cave entrances…” the person stated. “We’ll should manually search for it, and seeing this huge swath of plains, it may take some time.”
“Although I am unable to make use of Devine Sense, I would not be shocked that you just could not discover it, in any other case others would have,” I stated.
“Then what do you counsel?” he requested.
“Properly, might you employ your Divine Sense as soon as once more, and as an alternative of specializing in detecting areas to entry, try to discover areas that you just Divine Sense cannot protrude via,” I replied.
“Sensible, by finding areas the place I am unable to see with my Divine Sense we are able to closely cut back the areas we have to search, fortunately there was just one space, there,” Xi Son pointed.
It was a big boulder amongst many others, that had quite a lot of grass rising round it, it did appear like part of this scene however so would something be if one wished to cover it in plain sight.
“The rocks should not bounce off my Divine Sense, I ought to be capable to see via them, however in case you hadn’t voiced your opinion I might have disregarded them as common rocks. Now that I give it some thought, I ought to have not less than been in a position to ‘see’ not less than a number of meters throughout the rocks.
‘rattling, if Divine Sense can ‘see’ via rocks that will be probably the most unfair benefit in a conceal and search sport, the place you conceal from loss of life and the person seeks to kill you, I ought to actually thoughts not pissing off somebody with a divine sense, as a result of not even hiding underground can save me. Or not less than discovering a strategy to conceal from the Divine Sense.”
I added a psychological word on learning Divine Sense and discovering methods to keep away from detection, such strategies would assist drastically in retaining me alive. For now, I will should depend on X and hope that his badass energy punch is sufficient to make Xi Son remorse turning his again on me if it ever occurs.
Properly now, what am I ready for, let’s go discover a cave that was most likely created by an Ascendant? How onerous can it’s?
