"Well isn't that gorgeous. 225 in all my basic stats, 300 in vitality, and 150 in my other advanced stats. [Untainted] went up a tier, not suprising considering I used two tribulations to clean my body even further then before. Got my first tier 2 statutes, and I finnaly advanced to qi absorbing. Looks like it tells me how many strands I have and their purity compared to the avrage outside qi. 50 times isn't bad, considering my 'strand' of qi is more like a giant steel cable. Now, how does my new strength feel."
Taking out some new cloaths from his inventory, the corpse water might not have done anything but the lightning sure did, Alex got dressed and looked around for something to test his strangth on. But all around him was just devastation. The once green meadows where now barren dirt, the nearby forest was burnt and decayed, and the small river that went though the forest was dry. "Ah shit, I'm gonna have to run aren't I?" As if he called it into existance he felt the presence of three peak qi absorbing stage disciples nearing his location. "Welp, gotta dash."
Heading in the opposite direction to the approaching disciples Alex used a combination of [flash step] and [serpants dance] to move rapidly, combined with his new stupidly high stats and he had vanished by the time the disciples could even get into view, any traces of Alex's presence erased by the remenent tribulation and no trakcs where left due to [serpants dance].
The leader, a large man with tanned skin who had a sword tied to his waist, raised his hands in a sign and cast a spell called (tracking) which would find any traces of someone or something presence, but he only could sence his team mates, meanwhile another one of the disciples, a girl dressed In black cultivation robes who had a staff straped to her back, was looking for any remenents of what might have caused the tribulation, but couldn't find any.
The third and last of the group, a man dressed in grey who had no visible weapons said "I doubt it was someone who caused this, the presence of someone at the peak of foundation building to newly advanced golden core would linger around, and sect master would have senced them before they tried to advance. It must have been a newly formed treasure being tested by the heavens. If we find it we will surly be able to win the sect tournament in three months time."
The man with the sword spoke up "even if it was a treasure, there no trace of it. And there are monsters on the sect this year who we canot beat even if we found some great treasure."
The girl spoke up aswell "and i don't think it was a treasure, there would be signs of it around or at least remenents of it did not survive. And if someone had taken it before we got here they would have left tracks, or a trace if they were strong enough to get here and leave before us. So it must have been someone with presence and track concealing methods who advanced and left before we got here, but ehy someone would advance to golden core or organ refining right here is beyond me."
...
Meanwhile alex was back in his room with his furnace in front of him, it's refinment finished. Opening the lid he reached inside and pulled out a small emrald bead with silver streaks across its surface that was about the size or a rosary bead.
[Silver corpse thunder water bead(rare): this bead is the product of refined silver lighting from a special thunder tribulation that had been fused with the emrald corpse water of a special elemental tribulation. It can be bound to a user to alow them to harness the power contained within. If given to a beast with a dragon heritage they may use it to form a dragon bead with the elements of high grade tribulation thunder and high grade yin water, carrying the elements of strong yin and strong yang.]
Ther was also a sickly green liquid that had purple sparks inside it.
[Refined mutated corpse water(rare): this corpse water has mutated due to the presence of purple tribulation lighting. As it is refined it does not carry any of the negitive effects of tribulation energy, and instead can be used as a high grade medicine to increase one's talent, with a minuscule chance to form a trait.]
"Well aren't these a treat. Nuwa, come over here." Alex had left nuwa in his room while he underwent the tribulation as he was worried she would get hurt. Soon she was back at her favourite spot in his lap looking at the bead in his hand. 'Master, are you sure I can use this? I'm sure It would also benefit you greatly, I am fine with the refined corpse water.'
"It's fine, it's not like I have any dragon heritage anyway, so I can't make use of its main purpose. And as for the refined corpse water, I have plans for that. Now bind with it."
Nuwa mentaly sighed 'Alright then, thank you very much.' As she said that she slitherd over to the bead, and taped her head to it. There was a momentary flash as the bead embedded itself in between her two small horns.
[Pet: (nuwa) Has bonded with the [Silver corpse thunder water bead], her dragon heritage has activated. She has gained the trait [dragon bead of silver lightning and emrald water: psudo-tier 3]. Dragonic heritage enhanced. Bloodline purifying enhanced. Talent enhanced, bloodline abilities [silver lightning: tier 1] and [emrald water: tier 1] gained.]
'System, what's a psudo-tier 3 trait?'
[A psudo-tier 3 trait are a trait that borders between a tier 2 and tier 3 traits, there include:Traits that are close to a title, are tier 3 but limited by the user, or to high to be counted as just tier 2 but under their 3 fall under this category. The trait [dragon bead of silver lightning and emrald water] falls under the second and third category. As nuwa is not a true dragon she canot use its full power, but it is two powefull to be counted as just a tier 2 trait. If the host could see trait while in position of the trait [transcendent intelligence] they would have seem that it was also a psudo-tier 3 trait, but of the first category, as it was just below a title.]
'Thanks for the explanation.'
'Master, what do you plan to do with the corpse water?'
Looking down at nuwa alex said "well, corpse water is called that for a reason. Other then by elemental tribulations, it can also be formed by refining corpses. I plan to make a couple deals to get my hands on some more corpse water, and some lightning qi to see if I can make this mixture any better. But for now lets check these now statutes."
