Chapter 244 - Meeting The Royals (1)
"Who do you think those guys were?" Hela asked in a low voice as soon as Inari fell asleep.
"I have no idea who those guys were since we didn't meet them and judging from their cultivation, it was a good thing that we didn't meet them or they would have squashed me like a bug." Kai replied in a slow tone as the four of them stared at Inari's sleeping face.
"I have no idea how she managed to run away from them." Levina muttered as Kai nodded.
"It might be because of her cultivation. After all, she is at the spirit immortality realm." Kai said slowly as all of them moved away from Inari.
"So what should we do now? Even if we know the identity of those two people, there's nothing that we can do against them since they have such a high cultivation." Mariel asked as Kai nodded.
"You are right about that. There is nothing that we can do about that. So the best strategy from here on outwards will be to increase our cultivation. Currently, all of us are at the 2nd stage of the spiritual soul realm. I can easily help you guys increase your cultivation if I can increase my cultivation but the problem is that this is going to be difficult." Kai muttered as he tried to think of a way to increase his cultivation.
In the past, all of his girls had already been at higher stages in their cultivation and because of his unique cultivation skills, he had been able to use their yin qi to cultivate which would have been impossible for normal dual cultivators.
That was why he had been able to rapidly increase his cultivation. But now that all of his girls had the same cultivation as him, there was only one thing that he could do and that was to find cultivation-increasing treasures.
His best bet was that Inari would have something like that but there was no way that he could afford to buy any treasures from her.
So the only way for him to obtain such treasures was to find some treasures out in the wild. It rarely happened but once in a while, a special treasure would be born from the spiritual energy of the realm and that reassure would be able to help a person increase his or her cultivation rapidly.
But the chances of this happening were very low but it was the only thing that he could do.
"While she is sleeping, we should go and try to obtain some information about this place and maybe find a map that would clarify our doubts." Kai suggested as the three girls nodded and they traveled to the center of the room.
'The chances of someone coming in this room is low but it can definitely happen. I should place a warding formation here so that no one would be able to enter or see anything in this room.' Kai thought silently as he placed a warding formation in the room before tapping the white formation on the floor.
A golden glow surrounded the four of them as they vanished and appeared beside the gate from earlier.
"Is there a library here?' Kai asked Mariel and Levina since they had visited the city far more times than he had.
When he used to come to meet Kazemi, he would directly teleport to her palace so he didn't know much about the city except its layout. And that was because Kazemi had a map of the city in her room but that was in the original palace.
"Kazemi sure loved books but the city never had a library for some reason. If this city is an exact replica of that city, then the chances of finding a library here are very low." Mariel replied as an idea entered Kai's mind.
"Let's go and check the mission hall of the sect. We might be able to find a map there." Kai suggested as the four of them turned around and Kai tapped the date twice.
A golden glow surrounded their body as they appeared in the mission hall. But the mission hall was extremely different from what Kai and the others had imagined it to be.
"Maybe the man had spoken the wrong word earlier. This rather feels like a mission stall instead of a mission hall." Kai muttered as the four of them looked around at their surroundings.
They were inside an enclosed room which had a desk and five chairs in the middle of it. The room was grey in color and was completely blank except for the desk and chairs. Four of the chairs were put on one side of the desk whereas as the last on was put on the other side of the desk.
But with a bright flash of light, the man from earlier appeared in front of them.
"So it's you guys huh. I don't have any group mission except for one so you guys can only take that one if you want to take part as a group." The man said with a smile as he handed them a scroll which contained the details of the mission.
"What's your name?" Kai then asked with raised eyebrows as the man smiled.
"My name is Yuan." The man replied as Kai nodded.
"Can we get a map?' He then asked as Yuan didn't say anything and handed them another scroll. Kai then nodded one last time as he and the girls vanished and left behind Yuan.
"The only possibility is that they are from the outside but how do they have a name then? Have the rebels finally found a way to name newborn spirits and those guys are perhaps the test subjects? I can't say anything for certain right now so I guess I will have to wait for some time to see. But if the rebels really are taking action, then it's about time I showed which side I belong to.." Yuan muttered to himself before he vanished and left the room empty.
