Mixed Blessing System



Trying to focus his skills and cultivation understanding into his hands, Lothur moved them slowly, distorting the space around them.

However, as he tried to do this, he felt a restriction upon himself, with something preventing him from performing to the fullest of his current abilities.

He looked from side to side and realized that this something was the formations of this prison.

"Tsk! It looks like there's still some way for me to go before I get over this."

He used his visual ability and looked at the many formations in that place, understanding more about them than before. Still, even now, he could only decipher them by 88%.

To try something effective against them, he needed to understand them 100%.

Stopping for a moment to think about his situation, Lothur sighed.

'Very well, I'm not far from achieving that. I believe that in no more than a month, I can achieve what is necessary to overcome these barriers.'

With that, he walked from where he was standing, a courtyard away from where Rebecca was cultivating, heading towards her.

He regained his appearance and raised his vitality to a new level.

[Host life expectancy: 4,000 years]

So Lothur had a smile on his face going to see how Rebecca looked, being even more handsome now than when he had been imprisoned in Peters City.

When he reached her, he ignored the many men controlled by the black flames in the surroundings and saw that she was still absorbing that skull Soul Bone.

'At the rate, she is absorbing it, it will take her another three or four days or so to finish. Hmm, that's not bad. After that, I'll have her absorb that other bone...'

He did the math, noting that that would be enough time for him to prepare for his escape from this place.

Having become an Origin Saint, he would no longer have to worry about people at the 4th stage realizing who he was.

Now he could unconsciously control the space in the surroundings of his body so that the demonic energy part of himself that escaped from him would be completely absorbed into the vacuum.

Thus, unless he wanted to show himself, no Saint could see him as he really was!

Only a Sage could do this since such people could fully connect to space and simultaneously have their minds in several places.

But there were so few who could advance to the first levels of this legendary stage that Lothur was not the least bit worried about being identified by someone like that.

After checking on Rebecca, he walked out of that Wildflower Faction building, leaving over a hundred slaves behind to keep her safe.

As he left the security perimeter of that place, Lothur saw many inmates looking at him in a startled manner, noting how he was now a Saint, not just a Transcendent.

Everyone in this city had sensed when he had absorbed the vitalities of 50 men minutes ago and then quickly raised his Soul power before absorbing another Soul Bone.

As such, this entire city was aware that he could continue strengthening himself in this place while consuming their lives as he pleased.

Thus, the place was in a sepulchral silence, with people inside their residences sweating coldly, fearing to be the next to join Lothur's slaughter.

As he walked through the empty streets of this place, the people closest to him were thinking about what to do.

'I must surrender!' A level 17 woman thought to herself, considering that before, when he was a Transcendent, Lothur was already a monster. So now he should be many times worse!

On the other hand, a middle-aged man nearby was looking through the gaps in a wooden window at Lothur, feeling the immense cultivation pressure of this being.

'He's gone through two level advancements!' This man was very experienced and was already almost at level 18. As such, he had noticed that not only Lothur's physical cultivation had advanced.

'This being has a body cultivation at the same level or higher than his soul cultivation!' His eyes were so wide open that they looked as if they would fall off his face at any moment.

'And he already has five Soul Bones! If he keeps evolving, no one will stop him in a few months!

I have to join him! Even as a slave, I will have a better future!'

And even people with no hope of Lothur actually opening the way for them out of this place were thinking of surrendering to him.

Their lives were already in his hands anyway, so it would be better to serve him alive than to become nutrients for him!

So as Lothur walked through the streets of the City of Darkness, many people began to come out from where they were hiding to prostrate themselves and pledge their allegiance to him.

Lothur would watch this with interest but would say nothing for a moment.

When it was close to dusk, and hardly anyone in this city had been undecided about becoming his slave, he gave a few laughs that spread throughout the area.

"Very well, you have made the right decision. But I don't have room in my group for all of you." He said as he floated away while making his Gravity and Mortal Aura pressurize everyone in the surroundings of this place.

"There are over a thousand of you here... That's too many. If we all leave this place, the observers in the area will notice my departure. So those who want to join me will have to be the best.

I will only take 100 of you!"

"How do I become one of those, Your Excellency?" A red-haired woman asked.

Cruel Underworld!

Lothur moved his hands and formed a seal, quickly activating one of his soul-focused techniques.

Then he caused the entire City of Darkness to become darker, as terrible sounds spread throughout the surroundings.

From the ground of this city, hundreds of skeletons and remnants of the dead quickly emerged from the depths of that area.

There were level 18 bodies there and several level 17 individuals, but the majority were level 16 shadow creatures.

Lothur laughed once again and said. "If you want to join me, you must prove yourself. The first test I will use is this. Beat my creatures of the shadows!

Those who are still standing after 24 hours will have a chance to continue in this selection!"

After that, he saw the fear in the eyes of many people who knew that these creatures felt no pain and would only stop when they were totally destroyed.

"Begin!" Lothur gave no one a chance to think about what to do, starting a widespread battle that would spread to almost every part of this city.
