Chapter 47 - 47 : White Blaze Lake
Seven people present in the room were astounded by this rapid breakthrough.
"Y-You-your hi-highness I broke through.." Amber said somewhat incoherently. She felt her breath short due to excess excitement. They have less talent than Bird Emperor so for them it was even more impossible for them to reach The Foundation Realm.
But now with this breakthrough, they have a chance to reach the Ninth Layer of Qi Condensation Realm.
Blood Fiend was similar to Amber; he even had a chance to enter Foundation Realm. Although the chances are slim, there is a possibility.
For him, that's most important. After all, who doesn't want to live a long life?
Due to species limitation, they originally have a limited lifespan; the only way to extend the life is to reach Foundation Realm. Now there is a chance in front of him, So how can they not be emotional?
"Ca-Calm Down, it's just a breakthrough! No need to be over-excited about this." It is unclear if the bird emperor is saying this to Amber or himself.
He closed his eyes and took several deep breaths to ease his violent heart which was pounding violently.
After opening his eyes, he was truly calm but still, his thoughts were chaotic just then he noticed that there was an additional creature in the room.
He has black and white fur on his body and has a chubby body shape. A harmless strange thing is that his lower body is wrapped with something.
The Bird Emperor instantly recognised the creature, It's Robert! It's him who invited him here today.
Robert looked at him and chuckled and said, "So do you enjoy your food?"
He was surprised to see their instant breakthrough because he had never used an auxiliary technique before. Not only that he never used Primogenial Body Art before because he was afraid that there would be some problems in it as it was just used as bait for the trap.
This he remained cautious though it looked like his cautiousness was unnecessary as Auxiliary Technique is working perfectly.
Now that he remembered that System personally said that this technique is good which means it's authentic!
"Yes, It's the most delicious food I have eaten in my life." The Bird Emperor said without hesitation he was stating his true thoughts: the taste of food is unique itself which he never tasted inside Dream Maple Forest. Having said this he looked at Robert and asked hesitantly, " Brother Robert is out Breakthrough related to…?"
"Yes, the soup contained abundant spiritual essence which induced the breakthrough." Robert didn't mean to hide it and said directly.
Hissss
After hearing him, several people inside the room sucked in a sip of cold breadth.
Even though they had some guesses in their mind they were still surprised to hear the reason from his mouth.
"This is incredible!" Celli clicked her tongue in wonder. She has never seen anything like this. There are Heaven and Earth materials that can achieve similar effects but they are incredibly precious and difficult to find.
"Robert, that's unfair you never gave me something like this." White Fang pouted and said in an aggrieved tone. Snowball nodded in agreement.
"This has the same effect as Mortal-Grade Spirit herb," Slither said subconsciously a year before when he was just at the fourth layer of Qi Condensation Realm he encountered a Herb which helped him achieve a breakthrough and awakened his bloodline.
"Mortal-grade, what do you mean by that?" Robert was confused hearing him say this so he asked curiously.
Only after listening to Slithers explanation does he understand that the Heaven And Earth Spiritual materials are divided Into several levels.
Mortal, Earth, Heaven, Profound, Desolate, Divine. Every herb's material is divided with Mortal Grade being the lowest and Divine Grade being the highest.
Each grade is further divided into three subgroups: Low, Mid and High.
Hearing this Robert felt that he learned something new today. No wonder all the heaven and earth materials have different effects.
"Ding… Information Updated…"
Just then he heard a system voice he wanted to ask what happened but knew it's not the right time to deal with the current situation right now.
"I am sure three of you are satisfied with this delicacy." Robert glanced at three of them and said slowly.
"Yes." Three of them nodded without hesitation. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that this changed their life.
"So how do you plan to pay for it?" Robert had a sly smile on his face as he finally revealed his intention.
Three of them were stunned, Pay?
Wasn't this a free lunch?
"Don't tell me you thought there is something like free lunch in this world?" Robert showed a surprised expression.
"Brother Robert we don't have anything of similar value to us…" Bird emperor hesitated and said with a forced smile.
"No worries, In exchange for food, you can do one thing for me." Robert was waiting for this sentence as he leaned near The Bird Emperor and whispered something in his ears.
"That's it…?" The Bird's emperor's eyes went wide after hearing this. He was unbelievable for a precious tonic like that he has to do something easy like this?
"Brother Bird, Can you do it?" Robert looked at him and asked.
"Leave it to me I will complete this task in just one day…" The Bird Emperor raised his head and declared. After saying that, he asked, "Brother Robert about that soup..."
"Don't worry about that if the task is completed there will be more tomorrow." Robert waved his hand and reassured him.
"Then I will take my leave to take care of my brother Robert." After saying this he pulled a confused Blood Fiend, Amber, and left.
"Robert, what did you say to him?" White Fang asked curiously everyone gathered around Robert and waited for his answer.
"You will naturally know it tomorrow." Robert chuckled and said.
…..
Inside the Inner Forest, although the situation is complicated with various forces competing against each other, there are still some places that are free from the struggles and skirmishes.
White Blaze Lake is one of those places.
This lake is located near the border of the Inner region. This lake is known for its spiritual energy concentration. Low-level creatures often gather here to cultivate and stabilise their cultivation with spiritual energy present.
The water of the lake has a miraculous effect of curing the injuries so often many injured creatures arrive here to heal their wounds.
Here it's an unwritten rule that fighting is not allowed. If someone tries to occupy or create trouble they would be jointly attacked by all the creatures.
Although their cultivation is low with numbers they can harass others to death. Even big guys in the inner region are reluctant to get in conflict. After all, it's not worth it to get in trouble for a place like this.
Inside the inner region, there are places a thousand times better than this.
Back to the present at this moment, there were many creatures present near White Blaze Lake. Some were using spiritual energy to stabilise their foundation after a breakthrough and some were healing their injuries with water.
Of course, there are idle creatures present here too who are doing nothing. They just chat among themselves while gazing at the scenery.
Near the edge of the lake three creatures were talking among themselves. One of them was an ape with black fur coating his bulky body.
Next to him were a Hyena with a large tail and a sly grin was present on his face as he kept talking about something.
The third creature was a honey badger with a silly look on his face.
"I am feeling you this is a precious opportunity. Both of you have a limited lifespan left so a breakthrough is necessary for you." The Hyena looked at them and said, "And I have an opportunity for you which can help you advance to the Ninth layer with which you can have the chance to reach Foundation Realm."
While saying this he kept looking at their faces trying to read their thoughts. Alas, the ape had an expressionless face and Honey badger had the same silly look on his face.
No one replied to him, silence retained the atmosphere. Just as the Hyena was getting impatient the Ape finally opened his mouth and said in a thunderous voice, "There is no free thing in this world. So what is the price?"
Just as the hyena said they need advancement otherwise they would die due to old age. Normal Spiritual creatures have a limited lifespan so if they cannot attain a breakthrough during a limited period then they would die.
The Hyena was overjoyed after hearing the Ape so he said excitedly, "The price is not much but a High-Grade Mortal Herb. My lord has a natural spiritual cave where you can seek a breakthrough."
Hearing the price both Ape and honey badger had a pensive look on their faces. This price is too much! Although the Natural Spiritual Cave is good it cannot guarantee that they would achieve a breakthrough.
But they were helpless because although th3 chances are low it's better than nothing. Although both of them have High-Grade Mortal herb it has healing properties so it cannot help in breakthroughs.
The ape wanted to smash the person In front of him and force him to say the location but he knew that he cannot offend the lord in his mouth. In Dream Maple forest only creatures with Foundation Realm can call themselves lords.
Therefore he has no choice but to pay the price obediently if he wants to enter Spiritual Cave.
He sighed helplessly and was about to agree when he heard some noise. Some people were having a conversation that attracted his attention.
Not only him but the other two were also attracted to the conversation.
"Brother, are you telling the truth? It sounds unbelievable…"
"Brother we have known each other for so long, Why would I lie to you?..."
"But your words sound like a story. With just some spiritual water you can instantly achieve a breakthrough? How is that possible?.."
Hearing this, the three of them had suspicions. Is it a con man?
"Look at my cultivation you know that I have been stuck in this realm for one month already but after eating that spiritual water I instantly achieved a breakthrough…"
"What? Your is now at the eight-layer of the Qi Condensation realm ...."
Hearing this, the three of them felt her heart thumping because they felt an aura of eight-layer and it was unstable. This means that this person just achieved a breakthrough.
"Look? I am not lying to you right?..." The person was proud while saying this.
"So where is this miraculous place?..." Hearing this question three of them perked up their ears to know the information.
"Shhh dont tell others, It's located at the border of the Inner Region…." The person said the detailed location and continued, "Don't tell others there is limited Spiritual water present so we don't want the unnecessary competition."
Hearing this, the three of them looked at each other with joy. These fools! They just told the location of such a precious thing stupidly.
They felt like they had won a jackpot.. They can't just wait to rush to that place to confirm this news.
