Chapter 144 - 144: <Illusion Of The Nine Heavens> Has Reached Level 6
5 hours later.
[Filled 3,100 Lineage Cells]
[Congratulations! Your Ability <Illusion of the Nine Heavens> has reached Level 6]
A smile formed on Theo's face as he saw the screen appearing in front of him, and he felt his illusions become more natural to manifest and control. Soon afterwards, he increased the extent of the illusions within the Workshop. Now he could make the Workshop look even larger because of them.
A part of the place now had a large lake, with many fish, sharks, dolphins, whales, among others. Even things like mermaids, he made appear; everything he could imagine, he made appear.
The power level of his illusions has already reached the Higher Student Kingdom. Some of the animals that were bred could even provide a good match for Yuki and the others. It was also a good experience for them to become more used to fighting.
But it also accelerated Theo's Mana expenditure. Luckily, he was continually improving, and his cultivation technique was very advanced. Thanks to that, he could replace his lost Mana quickly enough to not run out of it.
For most of them, they had never seen these kinds of things. When they saw these changes, even though they wanted to continue working on their cultivation, they stopped to see the changes while the kids were all playing happily for the Workshop.
Some of the kids saw Shina, Zaika, Yuki and little Yui struggling with these illusory animals and beasts that appeared in the Workshop. They became very interested in their fights, and so, their fighting spirit was excited. Of course, Theo controlled the level of strength of his illusions to give the children a good battle, ensuring that they would not hit too heavy and to hurt them.
"Ah, my cultivation technique has reached mid advance in the initial stage." Theo could sense that even this small advancement in cultivation technique would allow him to now absorb even more Mana and create more True Mana of Lightning and Darkness.
Being absorbed in cultivation, they even skipped their afternoon snacks. Even the children, after playing a little and fighting animals and beasts, were soon inspired to cultivate even more. Of course, they liked the feeling of being stronger and being able to fight. It was as if they discovered one of the best toys ever, they did not expect that it would be so much fun to fight.
Because the place where they were cultivating had the densest and purest Mana, they made advances in their cultivations with ease. And soon after their discoveries in cultivation, they again fought beasts and animals.
"Huh, somehow, they found a good way to temper themselves." Theo thought upon seeing all this.
Shina was also happy that she had just made a breakthrough in cultivation, but after seeing how everyone was absorbed in their tasks, she decided to tell them the good news later. And so, she soon returned to her cultivation as well.
Theo, who was also using his Divine Sense to observe Ravena City, thought the streets were filled with a lot more excitement than yesterday. The streets were filled with people and Sect members.
Noises erupted everywhere as people tested their respective techniques. One after another, from many courtyards where these Sects were installed, it created a vivacious atmosphere.
Not only were they excited to be taking the tests to enter a Sect, but also apparently they were awarding those who could pass the tests.
It all started with the Snow Lake Sect, the other Sects that learned of this thought they were doing this to get the best seedlings, especially since they would have to stay with smaller Sects and strengthen them. The better the disciples they can get, the more profits they would achieve in the future.
Of course, they didn't know that their real intention in doing so was to try to attract the white-haired girl they had noticed at the orphanage. They were really making generous offers. First place in the tests would even win a level 3 Ice sword and a level 3 Pill that cleansed 25% of the body's impurities.
If the sword surprised all the other Sects, this Pill amazed them even more! It was something even more expensive and rare than the weapon; it was also something they did not understand though. Well, they had not noticed anyone so talented or so difficult for them to recruit.
Although they also provided some rewards for joining their Sects, it was not like the prizes being offered by the Snow Lake Sect. At least, they were unwilling to spend so much on those living in this remote City. Because unlike the Snow Lake Sect, they didn't 'see' Yuki.
If they found out about Yuki, Shina, Zaika, Zaira and little Yui, they would definitely be willing to spend a considerable amount of rewards just for recruiting them. But to their displeasure, even if they offered it all, they still couldn't charm them with it and ensure they would want to go to their Sects.
Not only did Theo have even better resources, but they didn't want to leave and live away from the people they care for.
Even the girls from the orphanage were starting to garner the attention of these Sects. Because they had already bought Pills and were using the technique that Theo had given them, their cultivation and constitutions were improved immensely.
Even though they still couldn't compare to Yuki and the girls, they were still good seedlings, which the Sects were more than willing to recruit.
However, even when they went to the Weapon Shop and tried to recruit them, they all rejected their offers. Although they found it a little unfortunate that they could not recruit them, they did not work too hard. That did not stop them from continuing to try, though… even today, some of them went to the Weapon Shop, offering generous rewards. But still, it was all in vain.
"Humph! Even if they offered 1 million gold coins, I'm still not willing to go into these Sects." Ariana snorted and said scornfully, "Who do they think they are? Wanting to take me away from my love, Humph, Humph…"
