Chapter 294: The Third Flame

“Why does Grandmaster care about the Nicholas family clan?”

Suya, who had been lowering her head to think about something else, regained her senses and said, “I don’t know the reason either. Perhaps… Grandmaster is really old friends with the ancestor of the Nicholas family clan.”

Currently, this was the speculation generally believed by the outside world. As for the real reason, not many people on the Divine Mountain Immortal Island knew. Suya was only one of the newly promoted disciples, so she naturally would not know the truth.

A male cultivator asked expectantly, “After we leave the Nicholas family tomorrow, are we still going to the Lost Spirit Sea to look for Grandmaster?”

The other disciples also had the same expression. They were all filled with admiration and anticipation.

Suya glanced at them and said sternly, “Don’t think too much! We’re here to train. Everything will proceed according to the original plan. Even if we reach the Lost Spirit Sea, your strength will only allow you to walk a few steps at the periphery. It’s naturally impossible for you to see our Grandmaster.”

Upon hearing this, the person who had asked the question looked a little awkward. He said softly, “We can wait for Grandmaster at the periphery…”

Another person could not hold back his doubts and asked, “Senior Sister Suya, do you know why Grandmaster has gone to the Lost Spirit Sea?”

“I don’t know.” Suya shook her head and reminded them, “The matter of Grandmaster is not something you and I can know casually.”

“You guys should focus more on your cultivation. When you’re done with the training, you’ll be returning to the Divine Mountain Immortal Island.. Unless you can advance to the Great Archmage realm, otherwise you won’t have the chance to leave the island again…”

… …

Cosia has gone to the Lost Spirit Sea?!

At this time, Romo, who was in the ancestral hall of the Nicholas family eavesdropping on the conversation of the five people, was surprised.

“Why has she gone there?” Romo became a little uneasy.

The Lost Spirit Sea was one of the few dangerous places in the magical world!

Its treacherous reputation was comparable to the Dark Night Canyon!!

The Lost Spirit Sea was located in a large area of the sea to the south of the magic continent. It was slightly to the east and was extremely vast… Even the outermost periphery near the shore was exceptionally dangerous!

If an ordinary Mage were to go a little close, he would fall into a desperate situation and lose his life. One must at least be a Great Mage to dare to enter the outermost periphery of the sea. However, if one were to take a few more steps inner, even a top Great Mage would not be able to escape death!

Romo knew better than anyone else about the extraordinary dangers of the Lost Spirit Sea!

Firstly, he had been there personally, and secondly, he had almost died in the Lost Spirit Sea!

Even though he had been lucky enough to survive in the end… he had still lost her forever.

Back then, Romo and his wife were both top-notch Great Magi. In order to find the opportunity to break through and obtain secret treasures, they had entered the Lost Spirit Sea… and an accident happened.

His wife had died just like that in the Lost Spirit Sea, and even her corpse had been left there!

Such an encounter had caused Romo to break down back then…

If it had not been for their children, he might have died with his wife.

After that, because he had suffered such a tribulation, Romo could not bear to see anything related to his wife even though he had temporarily buried the pain in his heart…

He dared not even put his wife’s tablet at home!

After that, when he was breaking through to the realm of the Great Mage, he was stirred by the Inner Demon and almost became possessed… He managed barely to become a Great Archmage.

Romo had sealed everything related to his wife in the depths of his memory and dared not touch it.

It was only when he heard these few people mention the Lost Spirit Sea and suddenly learned that Corsia had actually gone there that his memories surged up.

As he was thinking, he was also worried.

Romo knew very well how dangerous the Lost Spirit Sea was, so he could not help but worry.

However, he quickly remembered that at that time, he was only a top Great Mage, but now, Corsia was a Divine Mage…

Thinking of this, the uneasiness in his heart reduced a little.

However, why has Corsia gone to the Lost Spirit Sea? Could it be that the Divine Mountain Immortal Island…

After all, the Divine Mountain Immortal Island was located in the South Sea region, just that it was more to the west.

There had always been rumors in the outside world that the Divine Mountain Immortal Island had studied the Lost Spirit Sea for a long time and was very familiar with it…

The night passed quickly, and it was the next day.

With the departure of the few distinguished guests from the Divine Mountain Immortal Island, the entire Nicholas family returned to their usual routine.

On this day and a few days later, as everyone had expected, the Nicholas family became hotly discussed again by the outside world, especially the topic about the disciples of the Divine Mountain Immortal Island turning up to congratulate them. Many people speculated about the relationship between the Nicholas family and the Divine Mountain Immortal Island.

Several days passed in a flash. One afternoon.

As Romo was cultivating his magical power, he heard the familiar System notifications.

[Ding! Family clan’s reputation has increased. It has become famous throughout the world.]

[You have received a Reputation Gift Bag.]

The reputation level of the Nicholas family clan had increased again!

Romo was a little happy. He was quietly relieved by the effectiveness of his clansmen’s management during this period of time. Their reputation had indeed increased rapidly!

In fact, it had also been because of Corsia. Otherwise, it would not have been so fast.

Romo brought out the System interface and opened the Reputation Gift Bag which he had just obtained.

[Command Confirmation. One Reputation Gift Bag has been used… It has been successfully used.]

[Received the following rewards:…]

[Family Clan Luck Free Distribution Points x 300. Hundredfold Cultivation Speed Talismans x 10, Realm Breakthrough Protection Talismans x 10, Enlightenment Talisman x 1, and Talent Strengthening Talismans x 5.]

[Family Clan Protective Formation Enhancement Talisman x 1, Recruitment Talisman x 1, Tenfold Retainer Cultivation Speed Talismans x 20, Dream Appearing Talismans x 20, and a high-grade Surprise Gift Bag.]

After a series of System notifications, Romo received many rewards. Apart from the usual ones, two of them surprised him!

[Command Confirmation. Used a Family Clan Protective Formation Enhancement Talisman… successfully used.]

[The basic points for the defense of the family clan’s Protective Formation have increased. The loyalty attribute of the family clan has increased.]

[Family Clan Loyalty Enhancement: The loyalty of the family clan’s Guardian Spirit Beast and the retainers has increased by 50%.]

The magic protective formation of the Nicholas family had been strengthened again, and it had obtained another attribute enhancement effect. The new attribute was targeted at the family clan’s Guardian Spirit Beast and the retainers.

Although this new attribute could not directly increase the strength of the clansmen, the effect was quite practical.

[Command Confirmation. One high-grade Surprise Gift Bag has been used… It has been successfully used.]

[Received Strange Sacred Flame—Soul-Devouring Nether Flame.]

[Soul-Devouring Nether Flame: The target is a ghostly cultivator. It can devour the soul directly and the energy obtained can increase the power of the Strange Sacred Flame.]

When he heard the term ‘Strange Sacred Flame’, Romo was overjoyed. It was the third cluster of Strange Sacred Flame!!

When he heard the word ‘ghostly cultivator’, he raised his eyebrows in surprise.

This high-grade Surprise Gift Bag was worthy of its name.

Unfortunately, this new cluster of Strange Sacred Flame was exclusively for ghostly cultivators and could not be used by descendants…

Although it was considered a trump card, he did not usually make a move. The value of the third cluster of Strange Sacred Flame could not be displayed for a while.

He put the Strange Sacred Flame aside for now.
