“Thank you! If it hadn’t been for the discussion the other day, maybe I’d never have reached the Hinayana stage,” Pesi said in reverence.
Himmel Soan gestured to him to stand up. Before Pesi could move, a force rose from beneath him, making him rise to his feet.
“The person you should thank is yourself. I only shared my thoughts on cultivation. You alone decide how much you can take away from it.
“My words are only a reference. You made the breakthrough because you have the ability,” said Himmel Soan. He didn’t want to claim any credit.
Pesi respected Himmel Soan even more.
Himmel Soan then turned to Lan. “I’m leaving tomorrow. Would you like to go with me or stay here?”
Lan hesitated. Her gaze moved from her master to Pesi and the other people around them. She didn’t know how to choose.
After a long time, she made up her mind. “Master, I’m going to stay here. I’ll come to you when I reach the Mahayana stage.”
She wanted to follow Himmel Soan, but she didn’t think she was powerful enough yet, worried that she would bring him trouble. Moreover, she wasn’t a child anymore. She knew she couldn’t depend on her master forever.
Therefore, she made the decision to stay.
“Alright. Here’s a goodbye gift,” said Himmel Soan.
Firey took the desert spirit out of her pocket and gave it to Lan.
“Lan, please take care of it!” Firey grinned.
……
“Master, this is…” Lan was surprised.
“It’s the desert spirit. It’ll take its human form in about a year. Please take good care of it,” said Himmel Soan.
The desert spirit!
It was the essence of nature!
Lan was too excited to speak.
The essence of nature was very rare in Stelladom. Firey was the only one Lan had met that had taken the human form. She never thought her master would leave something so precious in her care.
The essence of nature could be absorbed and significantly improve one’s cultivation level without any side effects. The older the essence of nature, the more effective it was. Even if it took the human form, it could still be absorbed.
It meant Firey was in quite a lot of danger in Stelladom, but it wouldn’t be an issue since her master was always around.
However, Lan wasn’t as capable as him.
“Master, I don’t know if I’m good enough for the job…” said Lan.
“Is that the essence of nature?” Seene finally recovered from his astonishment. He couldn’t suppress his cry.
He then cupped his hands at Himmel Soan. “Sir, are you Lan’s master?”
It was an unnecessary question. She had addressed Himmel Soan as her master several times. Wasn’t that obvious enough?
“Yes.” Himmel Soan nodded, not bothered by Seene’s surprise.
“May I ask what your cultivation level is?” Seene asked the important question. He had been curious about it for a long time.
Pesi frowned and sounded displeased. “Seene, the master doesn’t need to answer that question. That’s so inappropriate!”
Seene was taken aback by Pesi’s attitude. They were old friends. Why would he speak to him in that tone?
Did he really have such respect for this young man?
Himmel Soan waved at Pesi, calming him down. He then said, “I’m just an ordinary independent cultivator.
“As for my level, I think I’m the same as Emperor Baih.”
Shocked, everybody fell silent. The same as Emperor Baih?
It meant he could surpass Emperor Baih in the future.
Emperor Baih was one of the eight emperors. Although he was only ranked fifth, he was still an emperor.
How could Himmel Soan sound so indifferent?
Pesi finally knew Himmel Soan’s actual cultivation level, but he still thought he was being modest. He believed he was as capable as Emperor Zea, the third-ranked among the eight.
Lan remained unaffected. She knew much more than the bystanders like he had only recovered 10% of his strength.
Himmel Soan said he was about the same level as Emperor Baih, which meant at his prime, he was as capable as ten Emperor Baihs put together. She almost saw Himmel Soan as a god.
Seene’s mouth fell open. He couldn’t believe it yet couldn’t say it aloud either. It would offend this man. No matter who made that claim, he had to be very powerful.
Seene suddenly took out his communication device and said tentatively, “Sir, the principal wanted to invite you to Elixir School.”
Wait…
An invitation?
That wasn’t a bad idea!
Elixir School happened to be located in Cloud City at the center of Stelladom. It would be his first stop.
“Alright. Tell your principal that I’ll set out tomorrow.”
Himmel Soan took Firey and walked around this branch. This was their last day. They would be leaving for Cloud City soon.
It was where he had to be. He needed to figure out the Soan surname and information on Gina. Cloud City was most likely the place where he would gain information.
It was great that the school principal had invited him. He now had an excuse to go there. After that, he would go to the Baih family.
Emperor Baih had invited him. It wasn’t the most earnest invitation, but Himmel Soan still planned to go.
Later that night, Himmel Soan went to bed. Seene also stayed for the night. They would leave together the following day.
In the silent night, a group of men in black arrived at the foot of the mountain.
