Chapter 928: Turquoise Secret Realm
Chapter 928: Turquoise Secret Realm
“Hmm”
King Stephen nodded his head at the old man before looking at Ajax and others.
“Hope you reap good benefits from the royal family’s Sacred Pool.”
King Stephen said those words with a slight smile on his face before disappearing from the place along with the old man.
“Huh?”
Ajax and Levi frowned when they saw the sudden disappearance of King Stephen and his old minister.
“You don’t need to get shocked. My father is very angry for letting outsiders like you use the Sacred Pool. So, just enter the secret realm and use the Sacred Pool inside the secret realm properly before escaping from here.”
Looking at the frown on Ajax and Levi’s faces, Princess Daphne chuckled a little as she started walking towards the huge portal open in the half-broken wall.
“What?”
Both of them were surprised when they heard Princess Daphne’s words; however, after thinking about King Stephen’s personality, they were not surprised anymore.
“But why should we escape?”
Soon, Ajax and Levi followed behind Princess Daphne as Ajax asked her.
“Why? Of course, to keep your lives intact.”
Princess Daphne halted in her steps as she turned back to look at Ajax before saying, “Especially, you need to be careful because you are staying in the Sacred Pool until it is closed. So, my royal father might try to kill you.”
After finishing her words, Princess Daphne directly turned back and jumped into the portal.
‘Damn it…I should have already expected it. This bastard is definitely vicious.’
Ajax cursed King Stephen as he looked at the portal with a complicated look in his eyes.
“Let it be. Since he might try to kill me, I will just destroy and absorb all the essence of nature in the Sacred Pool. Let’s see how cocky he will be then.”
Ajax revealed a cruel smile in his heart as he decided to use the Sacred pool as much as possible and leave nothing behind for King Stephen.
“Don’t worry. My master is keeping an eye on this place and the moment there is something wrong, he will come to your rescue.”
Levi placed his hand on Ajax’s shoulder as he gave assurance to him.
“Thank you.”
When he heard Levi’s words, Ajax could not help but feel warm as he thanked him.
“No need to thank me. It is my master who wants to protect you.”
With a bitter smile on his face, Levi replied to Ajax before saying, “Anyway, let’s go now.”
Since Ajax had a powerful master, why would the vagrant cultivators allow any harm to come to Ajax?
Moreover, they were very sure that King Stephen would try something funny. So, the vagrant cultivators had done their own preparation.
…….
In King Stephen’s cultivation chamber,
“Kid, don’t try anything funny with that second ranker kid. The moment you touch that kid, this kingdom is going to fall.”
After entering his cultivation chamber in the royal palace, King Stephen was thinking about something while walking from one corner to another and he stopped walking only when he heard his master’s words in his head.
‘Master, what are you talking about? You said the same thing when the champion’s contest ended; however, you are not giving me the exact reason.’
King Stephen became angry when he asked his master as he asked his master to explain it properly.
‘I don’t know anything. My royal prediction technique is sensing that he is the disaster of his province; however, as long as we don’t touch him, nothing will happen.’
Soon, his master replied in a serious tone that made King Stephen even angrier.
The thing is King Stephen didn’t like existences that could threaten his kingdom and that is the reason why he destroyed the eight hidden families.
It is the reason why he is not allowing the sects and great families to have too much power.
‘A threat to my Kingdom should not be allowed to exist.’
That was the only thought in his head after hearing his master’s words.
‘Kid, I know what you are thinking but I suggest you give up what you are planning to do. That is the only way this kingdom will survive. If you want to destroy it, I am not going to stop it as my time in this world will be over soon anyway.’
As the master of King Stephen, he knew how Stephen would think and behave in situations like these. So, he warned him before King Stephen could do anything rash that might endanger the Draton Kingdom.
‘Okay, master.’
Even though he said those words, King Stephen’s master felt a little doubtful regarding his decision; however, it was up to him because he is the current King of the Zrochester province.
He already gave his advice and warnings and later is up to him.
……
Inside the royal family’s secret realm,
‘Ding,
The host entered a mid-grade secret realm called ‘Turquoise’. It boosts the cultivation of any being staying in it by three times and water element cultivators receive a boost of five times.
‘Ding,
The effects received by the beings will change as they move towards the center.
Just as Ajax entered the portal, he received two system notifications that gave him a pleasant surprise.
‘What? A mid-grade secret realm?’
What surprised Ajax a lot was the word ‘Mid-grade’ and the effects of staying in the secret realm.
Moreover, the notifications said that the effects will increase if they move towards the centre.
‘Looks like all the vagrant cultivators only have a low-grade secret realm with normal effects. No wonder, the royal family is the powerful family in the Zrochester province.’
Finally, Ajax understood how the royal family was able to keep their power for generations and continued to create a monstrous cultivator.
“From the looks of it, the Sacred Pool would have more good effects on the cultivators entering in it. No wonder, he wants to kill us just for entering it.”
With a scoff, Ajax started looking at his surroundings while feeling the environment around him.
