516 Patience

Nevertheless, he still didn't want to take a risk and decided to wait for another hour before leaving from there.

"If the third batch of the demon army doesn't come what are our next plans? Shall we go and take care of the second batch of the demon army?"

The blood rose looked at the guild master and asked their next plan.

She thought that since there were fewer chances for the third batch of the demon army to come there, then why not go and help Rulf with the second batch of the demon army.

"No, he will take care of the second batch of the demon army," Edmond didn't think much before rejecting her suggestion before quietly looking at the guild master.

"Haha...yes he will take care of it,"

To the blood rose' surprise, the guild master didn't get angry; instead, he laughed and agreed with Edmond before saying, "Moreover, the Royal family will send their reinforcements to aid Rulf and others."

Since the demon army was moving towards the most important towns and cities of the Royal army, then the old guild master and Edmond didn't have a tiny bit of worry as they knew that the royal family would definitely protect them.

"Hm"

The blood rose nodded her head after understanding their intentions.

Soon everyone became silent and patiently waited for the third batch of the demon army which they were almost certain that would not come.

...…..

Inside a pitch-black space,

"What is happening? Why am I feeling dizzy?"

Ajax was hovering in seemingly endless space and his head was in a dizzy as he could not understand what was happening to him.

'That's right. I jumped into the entrance of the dimensional crevice and lost consciousness for a while and now I feel dizzy,'

Soon, Ajax remembered everything and observed his surroundings.

He was searching for something that could help me initiate the trial for the dimensional crevice.

However, there was nothing but an endless space which made him raise his brows.

'System, are you there?'

The first thing that Ajax could rely on was none other than the system in his head and immediately contacted it.

'Ding,

Yes. I am here, host.

'Phew'

Only when he heard the system's reply, Ajax was able to heave a sigh of relief and asked the system, 'System, how to initiate the trial?'

Since Ajax was sure that he was inside the dimensional crevice, he asked the system about initiating the trial.

'Ding,

Since this is a mission given by the system, the host needs to complete it on his own.

Soon a system notification came to his head that made Ajax bitterly shook his head.

'You have a point there, system,'

Nevertheless, Ajax could understand the reason for not giving any hints about the trial because it was his mission to complete.

"Hello, anyone here?"

After thinking for a moment, Ajax started shouting.

Although it seemed useless, Ajax knew that he was being watched by the spirit of the dimensional crevice.

"I am ready for your trial,"

Even though he didn't get any reply from the spirit of the dimensional crevice, Ajax continued to shout at it.

"I know you are listening. If you don't want to test me, then send me out and wait for another challenger that might come who knows when,"

Since the dimensional crevice was not cooperative with him, he acted as though he had no interest in claiming the dimensional crevice anymore.

No matter how loud he shouted, the spirit of the dimensional crevice didn't give any reply to him which made Ajax raise his brows.

'Why is it still not responding to my shouts?' 

When he didn't get any reply to his shouts, Ajax felt something was wrong.

'Am I already under some kind of trial?'

After pondering for a while, Ajax suddenly thought about this possibility and revealed a smile.

'Maybe, it is a trial of patience,' Ajax suddenly felt that there was nothing to worry about the trial and thought, 'Since you want to test my patience, I will let you know how patient I am.'

While thinking that, Ajax revealed a smile and closed his eyes before entering into his inner world in the spirit consciousness form.

The benefit of the spirit consciousness form was to observe his spirit consciousness while the body would become immobile.

Most of the cultivators never bother to stay in their spirit consciousness form because they would be bored to death as there was no use in staying longer in that form for them.

However, in the case of Ajax, he not only had a spirit consciousness but he also had an inner world full of elemental spirits and contracted spirit beasts.

'You can test how many days you want to. Until then I will go and waste time with my elemental spirit and spirit beasts,'

Ajax didn't waste any time before entering the inner world in his spirit consciousness form.

'Hello everyone,'

As soon as he entered the inner world, he greeted everyone before he started checking on the cultivation resources in the inner world.

'Good. Everything is in its best condition,'

He checked the elemental paradises, which were the most valuable things in his inner world and except for the fire and water elemental paradise, the rest of the elemental paradise had reached grade 2.

'Grade 3 thunder elemental paradise is benefiting those yin-yang fishes and the fishes increasing the concentration of the essence of nature in the inner world...Good,'

Ajax looked at the pair of black and white fishes in the thunder pool and nodded his head in satisfaction.

He totally stopped bothering about the trial and his body continued to hover in the endless space.

"Next, let's see how Necros is doing,"

Soon, Ajax walked into the dark elemental paradise and saw the black coloured elemental spirit, which was sleeping peacefully.

The reason for Necros' deep sleep was because of the side effects of consuming the strength potion in the five elemental world to fight the older birdman.

Because of that, Ajax was able to stay alive.

'Necros, wake up soon. You are missing all the fun by sleeping,'

From the system, Ajax knew that Necros was not in any danger; however, he needed some time to wake. So, Ajax silently muttered by placing his hands on Necros' head.

After Volcanis, Necros was the one elemental spirit that wants to fight. 

Necros was not in a position to fight the demon army and Ajax was absolutely sure that Necros would love killing them and consuming them. So, he said that Necros was missing all the fun.

"I will enjoy the inner world's environment for a while before deciding my next actions,"

Ajax didn't bother his elemental spirits and spirit beasts as he took a walk in the inner world.
