Chapter 21: Purifying lightening!
Time trickled by and soon it was morning and the big sun hung in the air illuminating light for all.
*katcha*
Another rank one spirit stone completely lost energy and dissipated entirely.
Spirit stones are divided into nine ranks, rank one spit stones are used by martial core while rank two are used by martial lords, and so on.
Adriel slowly opened his eyes with a frown on his face as he sighed in his heart: "that's the fifteenth spirit stone have refined in the past three hours, what's with this martial sapling! It's acting like an insatiable beast and is growing at a snail-like pace due to the lightening around it further purifying all the spiritual energy in the spiritual pool, it's only grew grow 1.3ft to 2.10ft tall now and according to records my sapling has to reach 9ft before I can break through to the next layer, that means at this rate I might have to refine hundreds of spirit stone before I can break through the next minor realm, unfortunately, I only have three thousand spirit stones left, and it will take double the time to absorb this same amount of energy if only absorb the sparse spiritual energy in the air"
"Shit it shouldn't be like this? others only use 40 spirit stones to get to nine feet and even that ice block sister of mine used 60-70 spirit stones to breakthrough, and she's already considered a genius, so what does this make me? A monster? Good thing my martial aptitude has improved or I'll be stuck in this realm for God knows how long "
"No wonder I'm always hearing tragic stories about cultivators fighting for resources "
Adriel shook his head before turning his attention to his beast tamer space.
His Beast tamer space was different now! the perks of having a martial spirit were already showing themselves, his beast tamer space size has increased from fifty cubic feet to fifty-nine cubic feet thanks the Chaos Wisp arduosly cultivating it, as they say, the more your beast soul grows the more it reverse nurtures its beast master.
Martial beast masters with beast souls didn't need to focus their attention on increasing their beast tamer space, they could just let their beast soul do it instead, of course if the beast soul's evo potential is too low this method wouldn't be as effective.
Luckily The Chaos Wisp had a trace of primordial bloodline so it's aptitude couldn't be underestimated even if it was currently sealed.
Adriel didn't know any other beast master but he was sure his rate of growth was faster than any of them!
"Seems like that the Chaos Wisp is has been cultivating hard while refining the mysterious energy" Adriel laughed in his heart as he watch the amoeba-like Chaos Wisp floating above and refining the mysterious energy in his beast tamer space.
The mysterious energy appeared in his beast tamer space ever since he awakened, Adriel thought he could only use it to activate his midas touch blessing with the help of the system but from the looks of it, The mysterious energy wasn't limited to only that and was a great help to improving his beast tamer space and strengthening the Chaos wisp!
*creak
As adriel was examining the changes in his dantian and beast tamer space, the door slowly opened and the fairy-like Fan Linxu walked in, her face remain as cool and aloof as usual.
Adriel turned to look at her and couldn't help but slyly berate her: "don't you even know how to knock any more, what if I was naked!"
Fan Linxu snorted in return: "why should I? Your door is always open anyways besides it's not like I haven't seen you naked many times, your body is not something special I might add"
She said those words honestly with a straight face as if it wasn't anything out of the ordinary, but Adriel had veins popped up when he heard the last part, he wanted to go and slap this brainless ice block.
"Sigh, just forget it" Adriel shook his head after managing to keep his emotions in check.
Fan Linxu nodded and began to walk towards the side of his bed before asking: "shall we begin"
Adriel replied but he didn't speak with his mouth instead he sent her a voice transmission message: "wait let me activate the room sealing formation mom left me so we can avoid prying eyes" saying that he brought out some formation flags and set them in all four sides of his room before inscribing so patterns on them
Fan Linxu heard this and nodded in agreement with him silently, he was right, they had to be careful now, someone might be watching, if anyone find out about his ability it is unknown what they would do to Adriel to use his power!
Moments later Adriel came back to her side: "Done! , no one below the martial emperor realm will be able to see what we are doing now and I believe no emperor has time to monitor a martial lord like me, there are better ways to do that"
nodded before holding both of her hands.
"Midas Touch activate!!" He screamed in his heart.
Boom
Immediately the golden mysterious energy seeped out from his beast master's space before gathering on his hands then it entered Fan Linxu's body!
30 minutes later
Adriel withdrew his hand and he looked at Fan Linxu, just like last time she had her eyes closed slowly enjoying the ecstasy that came with the Midas touch blessing.
Adriel remained where he was, now that his Midas touch blessing has reached the 2nd level he could use more of it obviously more tasking to use, all the spiritual energy stored in his dantian was nearly depleted, and his physical body.
Two hours later and after absorbing 1/3rd of a rank one stone he recovered all his energy.
When saw that Fan linxu was still sitting by the side absorbing the energy, she even had a stupid smile on her face, she look so beautiful like a peach blossoming, Adriel couldn't help but think:'how nice would it be if this ice block smile a bit more hehe, too bad I don't have a smartphone in this world if not I would have got her face on camera, I'll like to see her face when she finds out hehehe"
'Oh well time to visit the sect library I have to figure this stupid tribulation lightning dancing around my martial sapling, uh I should leave a note for her" think up to this point he wrote a short note for Linxu telling her where he went before setting off.
(Note voice transmission:After reaching the Martial lord realm or similar beast master rank cultivate can record words in spiritual energy before sending it to the minds of their targets.)
