Novel Full Chapter 621: Elite ten
Chapter 621: Elite ten
Sam immediately called Chatur and gave instructions to contact the people from another Planet. This is one of the Planets under full control of Yaksha.
The Planet Fysi. The Naga population is extremely low and only occupies one nation. But there is no adamant discrimination against them. As for humans, there are some but their population is not even the same as the Nagas.
The herb that Sam has to get from here, is the Abyss grass.
It is grown in a deep dark valley where the sun wouldn't shine. It is darkness all over and even cultivators couldn't see anything with their normal vision.
Chatur really did have connections everywhere. He managed to contact someone from the Fysi castle and when he heard the introduction of the person, he felt like his job would easy.
His name is Dharkan and he is the prince of the Andhera Nation. This place has year-long snow and darkness due to its geographical location.
For six months of the year, at least they will have some light. That could be considered summer. As for the rest of the year, there is no light at all. It is almost like they are living in a place where there is only night. If not for the changes of the moons they have, they wouldn't be able to find out the difference between night and day at all.
Currently, it is the winter in that place and the long night of six months is in its final phases.
He felt like this place is most suitable for the growth of the abyss grass. Even though there is a lot of ice elements and such, there must exist a place with a lot of darkness within this place.
He met with prince Dharkan the next day.
After exchanging some normal pleasantries, Dharkan said.
"Sandra has been badmouthing you for some time. Now I can see why? You must be one of those people that are beyond her Voice Charm."
"Maybe I am a person like that. Since you already know I met here, you might have also heard what kind of business I committed with them. So, I will go straight to the point.
I would like to buy a blade of Abyss grass from you."
"Abyss grass?" Dharkan's face became serious. His aura fluctuated as if he was ready to attack anytime.
Sam looked at him without a change of expression. He is as nonchalant as he can be sipping his drink as if nothing happened.
Dharkan calmed himself down and said.
"Where did you hear about the Abyss grass?"
"Hear? No, I read about it."
"We have nothing to talk about. There is no business to make. You can leave."
Sam was surprised a bit and he let Chatur walked out of the door, but he just stayed there and looked at Dharkand and said.
"I don't know why you are behaving like this. But I am sure that you have Abyss grass. I will buy it no matter the cost. Just say what you want. It is important to me."
His voice is calm and there is no sense of emotions. He looked straight into Dharkand's eyes.
"It is not a matter of price. We cannot sell the grass."
"Then how about a trade?"
"You wouldn't be able to afford it."
"There are not many things in this world that I cannot afford to buy. Please tell me. The matter is of extreme importance. I will not leave you alone until I buy one."
Dharkan took a deep breath and said.
"The abyss grass can only be plucked by themselves. The risk of obtaining that grass is extremely high and nobody would want to sell that grass out when they got it. The dark element users are abundant in the Andhera and every time, there would be a lot of them participating in the harvest of the grass.
Everyone who participates is a Pre-transcendent and there are very few nascent stage cultivators that would go in. It is a tradition of our nation and not many people know about it.
The path is dangerous and many people lose lives every year. So, I am not participating and everyone who participates in this wouldn't be keen on selling the grass they risked their lives to get."
"Is there a way for me to participate in this harvest?"
"No, very few outsiders of our family can participate and they are also citizens of the nation facing many tests and obstacles to gain the chance. How can I let someone like that just to participate?"
"Don't you have a spot then?"
"I have. But I am not participating."
"I wouldn't ask why you wouldn't participate. But just tell me something. Is there anything in this world that would make you participate in this? I will try my best to do whatever it is. I need it."
Dharkan wanted to erupt but he tried his best to control his temper because he knew that he might not be a match for Sam.
He did hear Sam's exploits.
"There is one thing that can make me go back. Find a Yaksha named Night charm in the Union sect and bring him to me. I will agree to participate in the Abyss grass harvest. In fact, I guarantee that I would be able to get you a blade of grass."
"Night Charm?"
"Yes, a female Yaksha. She is an elite and works alone. She is a master in assassinations. If you can get her to me. I promise you a blade of grass."
"That's it? All you need is bringing a girl to you?"
"What do you know? Bringing a girl? If you are careless for a second she will take your head and place it in your hands. She is an assassin that is well known on the Fysi planet. Not many people have seen her face and she is extremely skilled that she managed to kill a few Pre-transcendent stage cultivators.
She is not extremely good a combat. She is only specialized in single strike assassinations or escaping from even the hardest of the places. I am pretty sure that she is still nascent. So, she should be in the Union sect."
"If there is really such a powerful assassin, wouldn't she already be after my head after what I did to the Union sect? She might have broken through."
"No, she didn't. I am pretty sure of that. As for why she is not after you. Why do you think the forces of the Union sect retreated? Do you really think the real elites of the sect are all clear? They didn't even appear yet. The real war will be upon you soon. There is still a month for the Abyss grass harvest.
If you can get her to me in a month, I will get the Abyss grass to you."
Sam thought for a bit and said.
"Sure. We have a deal."
He shook hands and left the room.
He knew that finding an assassin is a difficult task and catching her alive is even more so. But he is not unconfident. But he is not willing to go on a goose chase to catch her and bring her to him. All he has to do is wait.
Because, he knew if there is someone like that in the Union sect even if they are not currently in the Union dimension once they came back, their first target would be to go after Sam himself.
After all, he killed almost a thousand people, cutting their troops by one-third. It is a huge loss for them. There is no way they would be able to let go of him that easily.
He came out and on the way back with Chatur he asked.
"Are there any other elites in the Union sect?"
"Elites? There are many of them."
"Do you know Night Charm?"
"Yes, but she wouldn't be in the dimension for now."
"She is the part of Elite ten of the Union sect. Their authority is on par with the Boss. But they wouldn't bother with the troops. The only reason that they didn't come and attack us is that there are three months in the year that they wouldn't stay in the Union dimension. It is part of their training.
There are still two months for that time to be up."
Sam frowned at this. If it is true, then why would the union sect launch a war when their elites are not here? It would clearly spell trouble to them. After all, Sam himself was a bane for them now.
As if reading Sam's thoughts, Chatur continued.
"Actually, it might have been a chance for the three bosses. Even though, they are bosses they are mostly the people who bear the brunt of management responsibilities of the sect. The Elite ten get special treatment because of their prowess in battles.
Before you came, the situation in Nagin castle is extremely unstable and in the past few months it was almost chaotic, so the Union sect chose this time to make a move even if they don't have their elites because it is easy to crush the castle. Until you came they are just playing with us.
But you just came and changed the tide. And from the message, other elites are also coming in few weeks. I think they might recall the Elite ten back."
"Is there any precedence of calling them back?"
"There is. when three planets' castle united and tried to occupy one of the core resource points of the Union sect. They planned it so well and did it all when the elite ten is not present. But three of the ten are called back.
They entered the battle-field and tore through the forces of the three castles. No matter how many enemies they came, they killed them slowly and chipped the forces down until all of them retreated."
