--- Chapter 128 ---
The Sun-Swallowing Nether Bird Tribe experienced a jolt of shock when receiving a "Small Gift." from Baek Ain. The Dawnbreak Mystic Art isn't just realm-changing, like literally, but also a sign of the new era for them.
Even though the tribe didn't lack offensive or defensive type Dou Technique, the Dawnbreak Mystic Art is like no other. It could help them wield a portion of Golden Crow's inheritance, alas incomplete.
Baek Ain has helped them gain their long-lost wish to be favored by the Divine Beast Golden Crow and made him an honored god-like existence without trying much.
Yes, he and Xue Rongrong didn't tell the Patriarch and the Elders Dawnbreak Mystic Art was "literally." created in less than a week.
Making them think it was Heaven's Will from the Divine Beast and Baek Ain was their messiah.
Even if Baek Ain told the truth, these religious fanatic magical beasts won't change their mindset. No, it might even elevate Baek Ain's position in their heart even higher.
Right now, he's a heaven's sent saint.
The next day, he could become a god in their eyes.
As ridiculous as its sounds, Baek Ain knew fanatics always have a questionable amount of drive toward something. At least they didn't go into someone's front door and ask if they wanted to talk about Jesus Christ.
Xue Rongrong began to share Dawnbreak Mystic Art with her fellow elder councils and taught them about the exact breathing and energy circulation sequence to get the maximal result.
For magical beasts, who lived for hundreds of years, they grasped the Dawnbreak Mystic Art quickly but needed time to reach the acceptable stage of success.
Still, they were shocked by the Cultivation Technique's profoundness and marveled at its beauty. Baek Ain could only shake his head because Cultivation World's people sure had it dramatic.
But then a question comes, how do they spread Dawnbreak Mystic Art?
Since it was tailor-made for Sun-Swallowing Nether Bird, no one could use it besides them.
They asked Baek Ain, but his answer was carefree, "Do whatever you want with it."
After not long yet not short discussion, Xue Rongrong, and the Patriarch decided to spread Dawnbreak Mystic Art to everyone in the tribe. Since the tribe members never leave Sun-Swallowing Moon Island, the new Cultivation Technique spread quickly.
It could help them raise the tribe's strength and spot rare talents.
Any tribe members who could reach the 2nd Stage of Dawnbreak Mystic Art could get considered rare talents, as it requires a profound understanding of Fire Elements.
After all, Fire doesn't simply appear out of nowhere. There is a fundamental rare behind it, even in this Cultivation World.
Baek Ain doesn't really call it science, but a decent part of it is due to his previous world's knowledge.
Of course, Baek Ain won't stay idly around in this place as he has another job. As the leader of Behemoth Paradise, he could set up Wormhole's set point and connect it to Behemoth Paradise's Base.
He asked the Patriarch, or what other tribe members called Old Xue or Xue Shikuang, if there was a place with great defensive surroundings and accessibility, and the white-bearded elder immediately escorted him to a private island near Sun-Swallowing Moon Island.
The island is big, around fifty kilometers square. The surrounding sea is "thoroughly." covered with rocks and coral formations, not to mention sea-type magical beasts living inside it, so people can only fly over it.
Even then, the sea wind here is quite strong.
The accessibility isn't a problem for strong cultivators from Behemoth Paradise, so Baek Ain takes this place for granted. He set some formation arrays to cover the area with mist and protect the island from violent sea winds.
Old Xue was shocked by Baek Ain's mastery over array formation but thought it was "actually." expected after a while.
"As expected of the Saint." He said calmly, stroking his beard.
Baek Ain rolled his eyes and ignored Old Xue, adding some Energy Purifier and Gathering Array to increase the quality of Dou Qi on this island.
Before Old Xue could ask about this, Baek Ain answered, "I'll put the same array on Sun-Swallowing Moon Island later."
The elder was left ashamed and touched.
"Thank you, My Lord."
Baek Ain set more arrays to compress and conceal the space around this island, making it harder for Dou Ancestors up to Half Saint Experts to wield Spatial Strength.
It is a prototype array Baek Ain created himself. He named it Shadow Realm.
Baek Ain activated Ashen's Eyes and Temporal Profound Eye, scanning the area to find any weak spots. "Good enough, I guess." He nodded in satisfaction.
Since there weren't many Array Masters in Dou Qi Continent, Baek Ain didn't know how good his mastery was. But in Old Xue's eyes, he's obviously an Array Grandmaster. Setting up so many complex arrays this quickly, no one could do it besides Baek Ain, who possessed parallel thinking and Eidetic Memory.
[Array Mastery(B)]
"Hmm, I wonder how long it took for me to make this skill reach S Grade." Baek Ain pondered to himself.
Even though Baek Ain knew raising skill proficiency was hard, it was not impossible, as it required time, talent, and effort.
They waited for the space to stabilize before Baek Ain tossed an orb-shaped black metal onto the ground. It expanded into a white platform and spurted a five meters cubic metal box with a hollowed center.
"Old Xue, help me to guide the Wormhole." Baek Ain walked to the hollow metal box.
Old Xue nodded and assisted him in placing the correct coordinate. His Spatial Strength's control is even more influential than Baek Ain's.
Well, this white-bearded elder is 1-Star Dou Saint, after all.
That also means he's a peak Rank 9 Magical Beast.
Baek Ain closed his eyes and grasped the hollow part of the metal box, pouring his Mental Power into it. He felt a connection and heard Eden's voice from the other side.
"Master, you finally arrived at the Sun-Swallowing Nether Bird Tribe?" Eden asked attentively.
Baek Ain chuckled and answered, "Yes, can you record my coordinate and set it near the Clocktower?"
"Okay!"
A Wormhole appeared near the Clocktower and soon attached to a newly formed Wormhole on the hollowed part of the metal box, to which Old Xue sprang to action and connected it perfectly.
A private spatial pathway was "finally." established. Old Xue and Baek Ain hide this pathway well in the depth of the void so that no one can find it.
"Done." Baek Ain sighed in relief.
He contacted Eden to notify Yao Ling, Yafei, and Yi Xian to visit him at the Sun-Swallowing Nether Bird Tribe. And they should have arrived in an hour or two, considering the length of the spatial pathway. That's thousands of miles away shortened drastically.
"Let's have some coffee, Old Xue." Baek Ain offered while creating some rock chairs and a rock table.
Old Xue smiled and took the offer, "Hehe, this old man will accept the invitation, My Lord."
As they sat down and enjoyed some cups of coffee, Baek Ain asked some questions regarding Spatial Strength that he was confused off, like how to raise his familiarity with void and control it more efficiently.
It's rare to have 1-Star Dou Saint Expert sit down with someone as they have no time usually and are "silently." focused on cultivating. They only come out when their factions are in danger.
Old Xue answered Baek Ain's question, giving him a clue to advance his cultivation.
Of course, this converse led to Old Xue asking for advice to master Dawnbreak Mystic Art.
As a good leader, how could Baek Ain not answer it?
Two hours later, Yao Ling, Yafei, Yi Xian, and several serials arrived at Thousand Claws Island. It is the name Baek Ain decided to take for this place because the island is "thoroughly." covered by sharp rocks.
"Ain~!" Yafei and Yi Xian lunged toward Baek Ain, hugging him tightly.
They haven't seen each other for a month and a half, Behemoth Paradise's time. So, they missed him.
They didn't even bother with images as they kissed him quite passionately. Unfortunately, Baek Ain only had one mouth, so both ladies had to take turns.
The female serials blushed but secretly wished to do the same.
The male serials gave Baek Ain a thumbs up and felt slightly jealous. But Baek Ain is their leader, so they didn't dare to have such thoughts and admired him for having a harem.
"Hohoho~! It's nice to be young." Old Xue commented, chuckling at his old memories.
