Chapter 344 Building A Base
Rishi left his clan. He noticed that lately, many eyes were on him. He didn’t like the atmosphere; the only places he found peace were mountains and forests. This time he didn’t take any risks; he used his concealment technique and disappeared, leaving behind no traces.
He went far away, somewhere he would not find any humans, and even if he faced someone, he should not recognize him. He appeared at the place, which he named ‘Forest of Shadows. When he came here, he was surprised that this region had utterly transformed.
It looked like a small amount of Shadow energy was still leaking. The connection with the other region had again formed. The amount of energy leaking was tiny, due to which the changes to the environment were minute, but Rishi, who had a core, could sense that there were some minute dimensional cracks from which a very minute amount of pure Shadow Energy was leaking.
The other adventurers have stopped visiting here after they thought the connection with other realms had been broken. Only Rishi knew everything about the incident that took place here because he was the one who caused it. He first absorbed the excess amount of Shadow energy, chased away other Magic beasts, and destroyed the precious elixir plants.
Now, if someone even came here, he would believe that the Shadow Energy is dispersing here, and this land would return to normal. This was all Rishi’s plan. He wanted to hide this place from others. To complete this plan, he even purified the whole Area and spread the seeds of fast-growing trees.
He returned to the City and brought many things to make his plan successful. He didn’t want to make any mistakes. As this could become a possible hideout for his assassin Guild, The price he needed to pay was high, but he was willing to risk everything.
He earned a lot after his new evolutionary path of boxing frog became famous. In the future, by selling Moa birds, he would be able to make even more money. But money couldn’t buy something that he was about to create. He even learned some useful suppressing Arrays.
While it would take a year for it to return to normal, Rishi was planning ahead. Next, he blocked these small cracks present in the forest. He was doing it all because he had discovered a secret: using his core, he could create these cracks anywhere near this place, so he didn’t require them. He was also able to seal these cracks using his Shadow energy; they were only tiny cracks, so it was easy.
Due to their size, they didn’t have the previous effect. They only left small ripples that were not easy to notice. Next, he did some research by finding out the Area where he could open these cracks. He soon discovered that he could only open them in the Forest Area and some parts of the mountain area.𝒏𝑜𝒱𝚎𝓁𝐧𝓮xt.𝗰𝑶𝔪
After searching all day, he found a deep valley that looked never-ending. He surveyed that Area and found that it had some Beasts inside it. He didn’t kill them because he believed it would be better to have them. They would help him hide his secret.
He released his presence and warned every Beast not to approach him. At first, every Beast was scared of him, but soon they got used to his presence. Rishi was able to easily get familiar with them due to his charm; he even fed them and made them his friends.
The Magic beasts here mostly had Dark and Shadow elements. Some were even rare. Rishi found Horned Bat species and Shadow Serpent species. He soon found a suitable cave in the deepest region. It had mainly these two species; Rishi entered it.
Most magic Beasts knew him; they knew that he would not harm them. After thinking about it, Rishi guessed that most of the beasts here might have come from the ‘Forest of Shadows. The shadow energy here was also in good supply. “Could it be that there was a massive crack here, but it also closed with other cracks, but this place was able to contain Shadow energy, due to which there is still such an amount of Shadow energy?”
Rishi didn’t have any way to test his hypothesis, but when he looked at the rare elixirs growing here, He was more sure of his hypothesis. The Shadow Beasts here had some kind of agreement; he had not seen anyone attack another one. He even found some high-level Elite Stage Beasts here.
Everyone was paying attention to Rishi. They thought he was here to steal their blessed land, but as they noticed his moments, they were not able to understand him at all. At last, Rishi finally found a suitable place that didn’t have that much Shadow energy. Next, he took some measurements and started creating some weird symbols.
For the next three days, he installed multiple Arrays and created a big formation. He then used concealment spells to further conceal the place. The magic Beasts didn’t understand what this human was doing, but they could notice that the amount of Shadow Energy was increasing.
Next, Rishi drew various Arrays by himself and created some rooms by digging the cave. It took him two more days to finish everything. After doing everything, he was ready to start his grand plan, But before doing anything, he went to the top again.
He blocked all the paths and surveyed the Area. He then planted the seeds of poisoned vines and made sure that it was impossible for anyone to reach this place. If some unlucky person still reaches this place, he will have to remain here.
ƥandasnovel·ƈom Rishi was not going to show mercy to anyone who touched this place. He then installed multiple illusion Arrays before he finally sighed and rested. If there had been someone else in his place, they might not have been this cautious, but Rishi wanted to hide this place. If this place were discovered by the government or a big guild, they would purchase the rights to it.
He didn’t have the money or the coercion to take this Area legally, and even if he succeeded, he would only make other people curious about it. Instead of having so many uncertainties, it was better to occupy it without other people knowing about it.
After making sure everything was prepared, He entered the deepest part of the cave and closed his eyes. He then created a small crack and slowly made it bigger. Soon, a large amount of Shadow Energy burst out of the crack. The Area started to transform, and he carefully started releasing a small amount of Shadow Energy in the surrounding Area.
Soon every Beast noticed that the amount of Shadow Energy was increasing. They released cries of joy. Every Beast became happy and started to absorb the Shadow energy. The Area inside the cave started to transform. The Arrays and Formation started working; they blocked the path of Shadow Energy and prevented it from leaving.
