Chapter 143 - Blood Essence
Chapter 143 - Blood Essence
'Looks like I can learn how to cultivate using the celestial energy,'
The old man Fionk thought in his head; however, he knew that he could not force the baby fire monkey.
??'Is it even possible for me to cultivate in that way?'
Soon, he shook his head because he was already old and there was no celestial bloodline in his body.
'Nevermind, I have seen enough in my life already. As long as the baby fire monkey reaches rank 6, I can have the hopes of reaching the immortal realm. Once I reach the immortal realm, even the sect master of the 'Blazing Inferno sect' has to bow to me,'
The old man didn't bother about the 'Celestial Cultivation' anymore as his main goal was to reach the immortal realm.
While the old man, Fionk was in his own thoughts, the baby fire monkey opened its eyes and it was shocked to see the familiar old man beside it.
'Eek eek'
Without wasting any time, the baby fire monkey tried to run away; however, it was stopped by some barrier that made it annoyed as it started shouting at the barrier.
"You can't escape this time...Haha,"
The old man came out of his thoughts and laughed at the baby fire monkey before picking it up from the ground.
'Eek eek'
The baby fire monkey shouted at the old man with a pitiful look on its face.
Even though the baby fire monkey was a rank 3 beast, it knows that the old man in front of it was a high realm cultivator. So, it didn't try to use any of its skills since it might anger the old man.
"I will leave you as long as you promise me something,"
The old man asked the baby fire monkey with an expressionless look on his face; however, inside his heart, he thought, 'Sorry for using force because it is what I must do.'
'Eek eek'
The baby fire monkey acted as though it didn't understand a thing and puzzledly looked at the old man.
"Haha….who are you fooling?"
When he saw the acting of the baby fire monkey, the old man started laughing and continued saying, "I know you are quite smart to understand me."
"I need one drop of your blood essence every time to break through a major realm," the old man asked for the blood essence of the baby fire monkey.
Blood essence is the most concentrated blood of cultivators that contains traces of their bloodline. Moreover, it had some additional benefits for the cultivators like temporarily increasing their battle prowess for a specific time.
As for what he wanted to do with the baby fire monkey's blood essence, only the old man Fionk knows about it.
'Eek eek'
The baby fire monkey thought for a moment before nodding its head.
"You can start condensing a drop of the blood essence. The sooner you condense it, the sooner you can go back to your master,"
The old man placed it on the ground as he sat down on the ground along with it and asked the baby fire monkey to start the process.
'Eek eek'
The baby fire monkey nodded its head and sat cross-legged on the ground before starting the condensing process.
'With the three drops of your blood essence, one of my main worries will be over and after that, I can start planning the rise of my beast mountain,' the old man had a satisfied smile on his face as he patiently waited for the baby fire monkey to condense its blood essence.
Generally, to condense a drop of blood essence, a cultivator needs a minimum of 24 hours; however, since the baby fire monkey was a special beast, Fionk hoped it would take even less time.
Nevertheless, even if it takes more than 24 hours, the old man could wait for the drop of blood essence.
.....
At the same time, at the top of the beast mountain, Elder Franz was explaining the 'Forceful contract' and other things.
Currently, in the beast mountain, there are only around 100 disciples of varying cultivations from the muscle strengthening realm to the energy condensation realm; however, there was not a single disciple who reached energy transformation.
Moreover, besides Elder Franz, middle-aged men were standing and listening to his words.
The five middle-aged men were none other than the elders of the beast mountain and in charge of various works in the beast mountain.
Replacing the fire ghouls in the cave was one of those works that an elder needs to take care of.
"Elders, you divide these disciples into 20 groups and instruct them about the techniques to tame the beast," Elder Franz looked at the disciples and continued saying, "However, you should not form a contract with that beast at any cost. That beast should choose to form a contract with you. Do you understand?"
After finishing his words, Elder Franz asked with the 100 disciples in front of them with a loud shout.
"Yes, Grand elder Franz,"
All the Elder and disciples nodded their head at Elder Franz's words.
"Good then. The beast mountain will be closed for the next 7 days and I hope to see at least a 50 percent success rate from you. Now go and do your preparations. The elders will give you more information about the beasts,"
The current Elder Franz was completely different from when he was in front of Fionk.
Right now, he had a very serious expression on his face that made all the disciples frightened with it.
As soon as he finished his words, all the disciples silently left to their cultivation abodes.
From beginning to end, not a single disciple murmured anything as they knew the rules of the beast mountain very well.
So, until they reached their cultivation abodes, they didn't mutter a single word.
"Here is the complete information of your role in this event,"
After all the disciples from there, Elder Franz tossed a scroll at one of the elders and asked them to study it together before going back into his cultivation abode.
...…
Inside the sect leader Gamos' cultivation abode,
"Sect leader Gamos, my master ordered me to inform you that the beast mountain will be closed for others for a week,"
Elder Strauss reached the sect leader Gamos' cultivation abode and informed them that their beast mountain would be closed for a week.
"For a week?"
The sect leader Gamos raised his brows when he heard those words and slowly asked, "May I know the reason for the sudden one week break?"
Since most of the outer sect disciples were in closed-door seclusion, the 7-days break for the beast mountain would not affect the sect much; however, the sect leader wanted to know the reason for closing the beast mountain for a week.
"Sorry, sect leader, my master is very secretive about it and didn't even tell me?"
Elder Strauss lied with ease as he bitterly sighed like he didn't know the reason.
"Whatever, however, by taking a 7-days break without notifying me at least a week before, your master has to pay 10000 high-quality spirit stones,"
The sect leader calmly replied to Elder Strauss which made the latter's jaw drop.
