Chapter 344: Awakened?
The sect would become almost defenseless, but without the chaos outside and Vesa's current abilities, MingYue was not worried. Discover hidden stories at ???
"Alright, miss, I will start now."
"One more thing, where is FengXue now? She didn't tell her location in that information."
"That is the last report, miss. I didn't read her message, so I don't know."
"I see. You can go now."
QingWa bowed once more, then left her house.
"Vesa, where is FengXue now?" MignYue asked.
She already knew Vesa had left some runes on LingHua's body, allowing her to track FengXue's location anytime.
"I can feel her direction; it's some distance away from where the portal was."
"How about Alex? Could you feel him?"
Vesa shook her head in defeat. "I am sorry, but no, Queen."
"I don't get it. Does this mean the one that caused this is stronger than a progenitor?" MingYue asked, feeling worried.
If this is true, Alex could be in real danger despite his ability.
"No, not necessarily, Queen. There could be a new method that I don't know of, hence this result."
"But isn't Alucard inside Alex? Even though he is weakened now, I doubt just anyone can do this."
"Well… it's because I know my old master's personality. Honestly, if this was caused by him, I would not find it weird."
"For what purpose? Training? In that case, I am also one of his inheritors; shouldn't he bring me too?"
"I don't know, Queen. Maybe it's just a whim. It's hard to guess what my old master is thinking."
MingYue frowned; she still felt it didn't make sense for Alucard to be the one to do this.
'Is it that eye being? But in that case, it would be even more weird.
With its power, that being should have no problem killing Alex instantly.'
Meanwhile, Alex was marveling at his creation. In front of him stood a tall human with horns on his head. He was now kneeling in front of Alex.
"As long as you help me with my revenge, I swear my loyalty to you, Sir Alex," Pi said.
He knew his life was already under Alex's control now, but the revenge was very important for Pi. No matter what, he must get it.
"Don't worry. I already said I will take out the Zephyr clan. So, how is your new body?"
Pi started making a fist with his hand, feeling the strength. "It's been a while since I used a real body, but give me one day; I should be able to get used to it."
Knock! Knock!
"Alex, are you awake? I am bringing the item you asked for before." A voice came from his front door.
"Sure, Senior, give me a minute," Alex replied.
He then took out an awecube and pointed it toward Pi. "Prioritize recovering your own strength, then you should learn the cultivation method I left inside."
Pi's real body was now unique. Alex had made it with many materials, but he still ensured Pi would be able to use it for cultivation.
Alex didn't know how high the realm he could get with that body, but he wasn't worried.
When a cultivator reaches the immortal realm, they carve a new body for themselves, meaning it won't be any problem for Pi to reach the highest cultivation realm he knows.
Pi was confused by Alex's words, but before he could ask anything, Alex had already brought him inside the awecube.
He then returned all the modern furniture to his storage ring, just in case someone came in to clean his room.
Opening the door, he was greeted by Uncle Moria, who looked at him with curiosity. "I heard you purchased a cursed spirit artifact?"
"Cursed? Isn't that too exaggerated? It just killed a few unworthy cultivators."
"Don't underestimate a beast spirit. There are some unique cases where they become stronger after death, killing anyone who wants to wield them.
I have heard some rumors that even immortals won't be spared."
"Is it that bad? I feel that is just a rumor. An immortal should be able to do it. Even if they fail, they could try again multiple times. I am sure they have their own methods."
"You are free to do what you want, but make sure you don't die before the competition starts. Otherwise, all my investment will be useless."
Alex let out a polite smile. "Don't worry, Senior, this junior won't let you down. So, did you bring what I wanted?"
Moria's lips twitched; he knew Alex didn't take his warning seriously. But looking at his calm demeanor, he felt there should be nothing bad happening. 'Either he hasn't tried bonding with the gear, or he has a way to deal with it.'
A storage pouch appeared in his hand, which he gave to Alex. "Inside, I also put a secret technique book. I don't know how you fight, so I just chose a footwork secret technique. I am sure this will be helpful for you."
"Thanks," Alex replied while checking the contents using his will.
Inside, he found two jade slips: one containing the information he wanted, while the other was the secret technique.
Alex's eyes lit up while learning this movement. It allowed him to understand what an awakened cultivator really meant.
The technique itself was not unique; it was useful but not better than the one he had learned.
This one focused on foot movement when facing an enemy in close combat, ensuring he always had enough space to move and dodge. But as the mastery grew, the movement would begin to change, utilizing the cultivator's own touch.
The cultivator would imbue their own element, allowing them to get more effects.
For example, if Alex used the fire element, each time he made a step, he would be able to trigger the fire to ignite on his step.
He then could use it to kick the enemy or use it cleverly, like igniting oil on the surface.
The technique stopped here for normal cultivators, but for awakened cultivators, there was another step.
They would utilize their own species' unique ability in the movement.
