A third cultivator, slightly older and more seasoned, offers some perspective. "That's the price we pay for joining a force with a Celestial Haven Pillar. We don't have to kill the last boss of the floor to advance, just need to cultivate hard and reach the required level."
"I know," the first one replies, "but it's still frustrating. Look at them, gearing up for this incredible mission. I want to be part of something like that."
As the conversation continues, Eryx approaches, overhearing their frustrations. He stops and addresses them, his tone understanding but firm. "I know it can be hard to wait, but remember, your time will come. Focus on your cultivation. The more you train, the sooner you'll be able to join us on these missions."
The young cultivators nod, absorbing his words. Eryx smiles encouragingly before walking away to continue his preparations.
