Despite Hamilton being confused with why Alice had been so afraid had to accept the answer. After all the young man was nothing but a bone refining cultivator, he didn't yet know the difference between an Antique family and a saint family.
In his opinion the Saint and Antique cultivations were only one rank apart. At most there was a slightly stronger cultivator in one than the other. But he didn't think the difference would be great enough to cause Alice to fear.
However he didn't know that any Antique family had an unimaginable background behind eachone. And even if they didn't, a singly Antique Cultivator is enough to wipe out a Saint family in a matter of days.
Of course this isn't to say that a Saint family has no capital to fight against an Antique family. Some Saint families can rely on special weapons to fight off Antiques. Or some have marital relationships with Antique Families meaning they might be difficult to destroy.
However it will inevitably cause great damage to the family if they dared to fight against an Antique Cultivator.
As Hamilton and Alice continued to chat about various things, Dante was already flying towards the land of the Inheritance.
During the Journey Dante continued to produce his Puppets. Using some materials he had acquired from the Auction and various shops during his stop he decided to create more and more lower ranked Physique puppets.
After all, he had already seen the benefits of the Aura of Heaven on Puppets. The more he has the more benefits he would get.
By the time that the FireBird County was in sight Dante had not only produced 10 Fairy State puppets and 3 Spirit State Puppets but also over 5,000 puppets with a physique above the rank of 5.
Unfortunately the materials used are only general, so the cultivation bases of these puppets is at most the Bone Refining State.
Luckily Rank 6 Physiques isn't exactly high nor low so there is a chance that some of them can reach the spirit tempering state but for the Rank 9 physiques that were produced they have reached the peak of their lives.
But Dante was confident that with the benefits of the Aura of Heaven, they each have the chance to break the limits of their Physiques.
Even if they don't manage to break through, they can be used for populating the planes of the world seed.
However, despite having all of the working parts of the body, they are unable to manually consider reproducing due to their lack of souls. However once they receive Dantes order there would be no problem for them to create offspring.
As Dantes thoughts passed they quickly reached the Main City of the Firebird County. According to the news from the Litchfield spies, the inheritance would open up in three days.
Dante wanted to take this time to increase his power as much as possible. His first step was travelling to the slave market within the city.
Dante wandered through the bustling streets surrounded by his Spirit State cultivators and headed towards the slave market. The county city was no different in design to the previous one.
The only change was in the size. The size had increased massively.
The protection of the FireBird Sect allowed this County to be much more powerful, even if it was still classed as a middle rank County.
Each County is divided into three ranks. Either Lower Rank, Middle Rank or Higher Rank.
This factors in its influence, its strongest cultivators, its wealth and income and its population.
Dante quickly reached the slave market. It wasn't dirty or unclean like you would expect. Rather it was quite luxurious and high class. It was like a shopping mall for the rich.
After all, those who can afford slaves are typically from powerful families.
For this purchase Dante had removed the golden insignia from his body. He didn't want his identity to be known at this point. However with the aura produced from the Spirit State cultivators no one dared to come trouble him.
Along the street there were various small shops with slaves standing in the windows. There were strong men or even beautiful women dressed in skimpy clothes.
Each had a small plaque hanging from their neck containing their basic information.
Dante headed straight to the main slave traders in the center of the market. The main slave traders exsisted in almost every County in the continent.
However it didn't belong to a single force, rather it was a composition of all nearby forces in which they could sell their slaves. It was managed by elders from every force participating.
The reason why Dante went there was naturally because it held the most slaves in the entire market. It was the most convenient for mass purchasing them.
Seeing the solid oak entrance to the giant main traders Dante simply got a magnificent black mask out of his pendant and placed it on his face. It firmly stuck covering his entire face while also allowing him to see and breathe.
This mask is a powerful artefact provided to Dante by his Family. It is originally intended to be used when competing for treasures. After all, why face troubles when you can just avoid them by hiding your identity?
Of course the family doesn't require Dante to wear it, after all the powers on him are more than enough to protect him from even antiques. And the Guardian who can appear at any time is even in the peak of the Saint realm.
Luckily Dante needed to break a pendant for his guardian to appear, so his actions weren't under constant surveillance.
But Dante preferred to be cautious.
