Chapter 37 - Bluffing...but With Real Power.
Chapter 37 – Bluffing…but With Real Power.
" But my master has a bad temper and if he sees someone who is an outsider then he will make a move himself, If you are confident of defeating a Pinnacle Elemental Dominator then you can stay here. "
After speaking this, Yashil looked at Athan to see his reaction but all he could see from Athan's face was a slight smile filled with indifference.
It's like he didn't care at all that his master is a Pinnacle Elemental Dominator.
Athan was slightly sweating inside after hearing about Elemental Dominator but he maintained his smile and said indifferently, " Just…Elemental Dominator? "
Yashin's lips twitched hearing that and thought, ' What do you mean by JUST Elemental Dominator? Do you even know how hard it is to reach Elemental Dominator? ' He was starting to doubt the identity of this young man.
Athan had already thought of a plan after speaking just now, He had recently found out that his energy is even more potent and powerful than Elemental Overlords, Just with a little amount of his energy, he could penetrate defensive spells of Elemental Overlords so he decided to show his power in front of this Yashil guy and scare him. This way, He can also find out some information.
Sorting out his thoughts, Athan looked at Yashil and feigned a surprised expression while speaking, " Don't tell me that you find Elemental Dominator very powerful? "
Yashil was speechless hearing that and spoke with a dark face, " Of course they are powerful, Elemental Dominators are pinnacle beings in Griza Star Sector. "
" Ignorant!! " Athan shouted as his face showed disappointment.
Hearing what Athan said, Yashil almost tripped even while standing perfectly stable.
Athan looked at Yashil as if he were looking at an idiot and said while shaking his head, " I'll broaden your horizon today, First you can at least tell what stage did I reach right? "
Yashil nodded and spoke with a serious face, " You have reached the pinnacle of Elemental Overlord. " in fact, Yashil found it hard to believe that there was such a young pinnacle Elemental Overlord.
" idiot!! "
Shaking his head, Athan ignored the constipated look on Yashil's face and said, " Look carefully this time and if you can't see what my stage is after that, then it only means that you are an Ignorant Idiot. "
After speaking, He used a Fireball, This time He didn't hold back and consumed 100 drops of fire energy.
Even though Athan compressed the Fireball to the best of his ability, It still looked very massive as its size reached around 180 diameters.
Seeing the Massive Fireball, Some of the people on the beast peed their pants.
Yashil's face was painted with fear seeing the Fireball and thought, ' That potent energy, I didn't feel that much from the spear because he must have used a very low amount in it, but sensing the potent energy of that Fireball, That man…is without a doubt an Elemental Dominator. '
Even he was scared by his own conjecture, Even if that guy started training when he was in his mother's womb, It's still impossible to become this powerful at such a young age.
Because Elemental Dominator is a Big hurdle to pass after reaching Elemental Archlord.
That's right After the Elemental overlord Stage comes Elemental Archlord Stage and then comes Elemental Dominator Stage.
But Athan doesn't know that He thinks that Elemental Dominator comes after Elemental Overlord.
" What do you think? Do you want to see the power of this Fireball? " Athan looked at Yashil and said.
But he didn't wait for his reply as he threw the Fireball towards a mountain 1 KM away as this area of forest had lots of big mountains.
People on the beast watched as The massive Fireball hit the big mountain, and then…
*BOOOOOOOMMM…..*
The mountain disappeared, The blast literally consumed the massive mountain and even surroundings were destroyed as the shockwave of the blast reached towards them.
Even Athan was shocked speechless but thankfully none of them saw his expression as he quickly changed it.
He then turned to look at Yashil and spoke with an indifferent smile, " Now do you know what my stage is? "
Hearing his voice, people snapped out of their daze as they looked fearfully at Athan, Yashil's face also paled as he hurridly bowed and said in a quivering voice, " This junior pays respect to the mighty Dominator. "
Hearing that, Athan's lips twitched as he almost could not hold his indifferent expression.
' F**king hell, now I became elemental dominator? I really need information about the next stages. '
" Do you know that the place where I come from have Elemental Dominators as guards? Of course, I am an exception as I am a genius and My master is so powerful that you wouldn't even be able to imagine his might. " Although he was not used to praising himself, he forced himself to do it for the sake of the plan he concocted.
He then raised his voice a notch and spoke in a deep voice, " Now let me ask you again, Are Elemental Dominators very powerful? "
Yashil's body trembled as he hurriedly spoke, " Y-yes…I mean No, Elemental Dominators are indeed not powerful. "
Athan nodded hearing that and spoke in a commanding tone, " Although I would generally kill you all because you tried to kill me. But I'm in good mood today so All you have to do is to leave your storage rings behind and scram, Also tell your Master to not waste his time coming here because My elder brother will be coming here after six days and he is even more powerful than mere Elemental dominators. "
Nobody dared to voice any protest as they hurridly gave their storage rings to Athan before running away, although only 4 people had storage rings among the group.
He didn't kill them because he wanted to spread what he just said to Top factions and especially The Lotus Ridge Sect's Master through Yashil.
They will likely hesitate and think more before coming here, And since he said that his elder brother will come after six days, they will not make any rash moves until they confirm the existence of his elder brother. Anyway, he will leave after five days as Lafurge's turn to guard the Danger Zone will arrive soon.
On other hand, If he had killed them, then he would have to run away before gaining the Space affinity and things would also get more troublesome.
Athan then looked at the 4 storage rings and started to browse their contents, He urgently needed information about the Stages of cultivation.
After browsing these 4 storage rings plus the other two storage rings he got after killing the people who were fighting against Valley Master, He sorted out their contents and put them in the biggest storage ring, which obviously belonged to Yashil.
It had 200-meter cubic space in it.
His current wealth amounted to,
[A/N: it will be " Stones" from now on.]
17x Peak-Grade & 243x High-Grade Fire Stones.
14xPeak-Grade &122x High-Grade Water Stones.

18xPeak-Grade & 179x High-Grade Lightning Stones.
9xPeak Grade & 67x High-Grade Dark Stones.
10xPeak Grade & 87xHigh-Grade Light Stones.
He also put this information on his Status Panel so that he can keep track of his wealth.

Aside from the elemental stones, He also got quite a few books that recorded spells.
and He also found the thing he most wanted right now from Yashil's ring.
It was the information about Cultivation Stages.
He skipped the few pages and started reading from the Elemental Overlord stage.
Athan already knew that Elemental Overlords need Mystic Energy to turn their Gaseous Energies into Liquid form which brings qualitative changes in their energy, making them more powerful.
But there were three tiers in Elemental Overlord Stage.
Tier-1 Elemental Overlord: These Elemental Overlords have just transformed their Psychic Realm into Mystic Realm, Their Mystic Energy is still in small amounts so they have a low reserve of Liquified Elemental Energy.
Tier-2 Elemental Overlord: After one has completely cleared the black impurities inside their Mystic Realm, they are considered Tier-2 Elemental Overlord, because, with the help of a huge amount of Mystic Energy, They can speed up the process of turning their Gaseous Energy into Liquified energy, and as the Mystic Energy can be used in the battle to control the spells better, Tier-2 Elemental Overlords have a significant advantage over Tier-1 Overlords.
Tier-3 Elemental Overlord: If one wants to become a Tier-3 Elemental Overlord, They need to create a Revolving Condensation Gate after destroying the Revolving Refinement Gate. This gate made from Mystic Energy can automatically condense the absorbed energy from the atmosphere and elemental stones into Liquified Elemental Energy, But the process is very hard and complex as it takes many tries to construct this gate.
Athan then turned to the next page and his face changed.
The next stage after Elemental Overlord is not Elemental Dominator but Elemental Archlord which shocked Athan.
' F**K, I'm glad I didn't speak Bullsh*t about things I didn't know otherwise my cover would have been blown by the other party. '
Heaving a sigh of relief, He read the description of Elemental Archlords and was surprised.
Elemental Archlord: After one can successfully construct the Revolving Condensation Gate, They need to start refining their body using the liquified Elemental Energy they cultivate, and they also need to start expanding their Energy Realm to increase their reserve of Energy Seas, There are two reasons why they need to refine their bodies. The first one is to remove the impurity in their body using liquified energy and increase their life span, The 2nd one is to better control their elemental energy, If their body is refined then their control over the liquified energy also increases greatly.
Reading this, Athan thought, ' This explains why I could control the energies easily. '
( Of course, his Peak-Grade Affinities also played a role, but his refined body was also responsible for that. )
Elemental Archlord Stage also has tiers.
Tier-1 Elemental Archlord: If they can withstand the attack of Elemental Master with their body and if their physical punch can exert 1000 KG of power they are at Tier-1 Elemental Archlord, Their life span increases by 5 years.
Tier-2 Elemental Archlord: If they can withstand the attack of Elemental Archmage with their body and if their Physical punch can exert 5000KG of power they are at Tier-2 Elemental Archlord, Their Life Span increases by 25 years.
Tier-3 Elemental Archlord: If they can withstand the attack of Elemental Overlord with their body and if their physical punch can exert 25000KG of power they are at Tier-3 Elemental Archlord, Their Life span increases by 125 years.
' Oh, that means my lifespan has also increased. I wonder how powerful my physical strength is now? ' Wondering about it, Athan turned to the next page.
