Chapter 419: Kicked out
Chapter 419: Kicked out
Raven slumped on the ground with a pale face. There a trail of blood on the corners of his lips. He wiped it of with his sleeves and entered a meditative state to ease up his injuries.
‘What a Heavenly Tribulation.’ Raven sighed inwardly as he felt the aching parts of his body. ‘I had an easy time defending against the earlier sets but when the 9th Set came down, I was forced to use multiple arms. Specially that final bolt! That black lightning was as thick as tree’s trunk! Had I not used 100 arms to defend against that, I’m afraid that my injuries would be a lot worse compared to now.’
The entirety of the 9th Heavenly Tribulation Set was meant to kill him. It was certainly not showing mercy. If it weren’t for Raven having a tool that could defend against those black lightning bolts, then he would’ve probably died by now.
Sufficed to say, even though he managed to defend against them. Raven was still injured from the assault. The berserk energy of Lightning Laws were wrecking havoc inside his body, causing his face visibly pale and his blood to tumble here and there.
Raven circulated his Cosmic Energy to ease up and heal his internal wounds, he was also using them to coax the Lightning Law Energies to dissipate without damaging his body even further. Just like what Geezer said, Cosmic Energy was very adaptive. It didn’t take long before the his energies altered and accommodated the foreign energy inside his body.
As he circulated his Cosmic Energy some more, the foreign energies were completely dissolved, turning into vague insights about Heavenly Tribulation Lightning. However, this basis is too shallow for Raven to analyze so he just threw it at the back of his mind.
Once that’s done, a rosy complexion returned on his face. He breathed out some foul air and stood up from his meditation. He briefly stretched his body and silently admired the new found strength coursing through his body.
Finally, a smile emerged from his face. Knowing that he made another great step towards being a true powerhouse cause him to feel gratified. At least his hard work was paying off.
‘Still, it won’t be too good if I showed off my Perfected Deity’s Champion Physique. I should do something about this.’ He silently thought.
He then procured some needles from his spatial ring and planted them deep into some abstruse spots on his body. This process wasn’t really painful and it won’t hinder Raven’s movement at all. After he finished placing at least twenty needles inside his body, a bizarre reaction rippled from his body.
The violet-golden corona that emanated out of his body, slowly dimmed down into a bright golden gleam. This bright golden gleam represents a Perfected Immortal’s Champion Physique. Which is good enough to pass the initial requirements posed by the Ancient Elysium Sect.
Raven did this out of caution, he knew that a human’s heart had the potential to be treacherous. In order for him to not suffer, then he must act a little low-key.
Satisfied with his arrangements, Raven nodded to himself and took a good look around him.
According to what Geezer said, this place is the Cultivation Eden. Now that Raven was here, he could feel that this is indeed, a very apt name for this place. The energy density here is almost ten times thicker and purer compared outside. This place also contained many resources that could be used in order to enhance one’s cultivation speed.
Aside from the enormous nebula of Equinox Waters behind him, he also found some altars, halls, arrays and so on. Raven was itching to visit those places but he calmed himself down. Right now isn’t the time for that. Though, there’s one thing that really lit up a fire inside his chest.
‘I could see numerous Stargazing Mats from here. Each of those mats could enhance my deduction skills by 50%! I wonder if it’s alright for me to leave my Avatars there?’
Raven pursed his lips as he thought about this. What he didn’t know is that, the place he was looking at was actually one, if not the most, important locations inside this cultivation eden. As of now, Raven still hadn’t thought that the previous inheritors also cultivated the Myriad Incarnations Scripture, and the reason why there’s tons of Stargazing Mats present here, is because they too used this place to leave their Avatars behind in order to enhance their deduction skills.
‘It should be fine right?’ Raven hesitated, ‘This shouldn’t be considered as cheating. And its not like I won’t be able to enter this place soon anyway? Plus my Avatars are just my Avatars, that shouldn’t be against the rules. Right?’
Thinking up to here, an Avatar of his flew like a streak of light and sat on one of the Stargazing Mats without experiencing any obstructions. Seeing that his avatar wasn’t attacked nor hindered, Raven heaved a sigh of relief. Since his Avatar wasn’t hindered, then it should be fine. After all, he was aware that he was being monitored by the previous inheritors as well. If this wasn’t really allowed, then there’s no way that they wouldn’t hinder the Avatar from sitting there.
Since this was he case, Raven didn’t held back. He sent all of his remaining Avatars and had them meditate using the Stargazing Mats. He then sent out an order to his Avatars…
Two Avatars were ordered to meditate upon the profundity of the [99 Destruction Seals], he also had two avatars study the [99 Holy Seals] for now. Three of his Avatars were ordered to meditate upon the profundity of Spacetime Laws. The last two were then ordered to polish his offensive skills. One would study the profundity of Wavefolding while the other would constantly practice Fist Skills.
He waited for a bit and felt that the flow of his thoughts weren’t as messy as he initially thought it would, causing him to sigh in relief. At the same time, he also had nothing but endless praise towards the one who created such technique.
It was truly heaven-defying, not even the most pampered son/daughters of heaven could compare to him when it comes to learning things with this. Not to mention that his Avatars could always scoop some waters from the Equinox Water Nebula whenever they’re fatigued. What a massive opportunity this was…
After he was done doing that, he could that he was being transported somewhere else, which momentarily stunned him yet he didn’t fought back against.
When his vision adjusted, he found himself standing outside the Ancestral Palace. He was standing at his usual spot in front of the 80th pocket dimension. His connections with his Avatars were still there and he’s guessing that it would be the same even if he went outside of the crown’s space.
Before he could even adjust, he could feel that he was once again being transported somewhere else, causing him to feel astounded.
When he came to, he was back to the real world. More precisely, inside the cultivation room he prepared for his seclusion within the Martial Emperor Sect. A wry smile appeared on his face as he inwardly thought:
‘Right, I somewhat overstayed within the crown space. I could only stay within for two days. I’m guessing that they already bent the rules for me in consideration of my breakthrough. Not to mention, I also left my Avatars within the Cultivation Eden. And this is without mentioning the time I spent being summoned by Master.’
Raven gazed at the time table near him and saw that, in reality, his breakthrough didn’t really took that long. In fact, he came back within the same day as he disappeared.
There’s only two weeks left before official start of the recruitment. He decided to stay inside for one more week here, which is equivalent to 35 days due to the temporal array he placed. After that, he would exit, since travelling towards the venue would take time.
According to what Raul informed him a while back, the venue that the Ancient Elysium Sect chose this time around is a place called Azure Sun Great World.
This plane is relatively close to the Blue Marble Planet. According to what Raul told him, this place raised two Empyrean Knights which became the guardians of this place. Due to this, the status of this place rose to greater heights, making it more prosperous and more famous. It was unknown how many people travels there in order to seek out opportunities or pay respects to the Empyreans stationed there. Of course, there’s also people who were yearning to be accepted as a disciple of the Empyreans yet such thing never happened before.
Raul wasn’t certain if the two Empyreans of Azure Sun Great World had connections with the Ancient Elysium Sect. After all, other sects also does this thing where they rent a place as a venue to recruit disciples.
Needless to say, Azure Sun Great World is for sure bound to be extremely chaotic right now because the matter of Ancient Elysium Sect’s disciple recruitment isn’t some sort of secret at all��
