Chapter 2914: Disciple? Perhaps Not
Rean continued with his pretense during that day, listening to Kuslau's teachings and what not. Kuslau investigated Rean before offering that invitation and found out Rean used a Low- Level Energy Breakthrough Pill to go straight to the Energy Gathering Realm. However, when he used his Spiritual Sense to check Rean's body, he only found a few flaws.
"Oh! You were quite lucky. That pill you used to get to the Energy Gathering Realm didn't leave behind too many inconsistencies. If you work diligently, you can eliminate these flaws in a few months," Kuslau spoke with a smile.
Rean smiled and didn't say anything. He was going to 'use' the Foundation Establishment Pills today. If he told Kuslau, the guy would definitely stop him. Well, Rean and Roan were almost in the Core Formation Realm already, actually. "I will work hard, master."UppTodated from nô/v/e/lb(i)n.c(o)/m
"Good," Kuslau then threw a Spaital Ring to Rean. "Since I took you as my disciple, I can't leave you without a gift. Inside, you will find a sword and a hundred Rank Two Spirit Stones. I will also give you access to the cultivation techniques repository. Go there later and find one that suits you. From now on, come to me once a week so that I can check your progress."
Rean took the chance to ask. "Master, the arena is giving me quite some Spiritual Stones. Still, I wish to go out to do the Gondel Clan's missions, like the ones to kill and collect Demon Beasts' Materials. Do you think it is a good idea?"
Kuslau immediately nodded. "Even if you hadn't mentioned, I would force you to go out. There is only so much you can learn in the arena since killing or causing any permanent damage is prohibited. Go to the missions hall and take a few missions. With your strength, any mission for Energy Gathering Realm members shouldn't be too hard. However, remember that demon beasts don't care about your status or anything like that. Keep your guard high all the time, and it is not only Demon Beasts that could cause you trouble. Keep that in mind." Rean faintly smiled and asked what he really wanted to know. "Alright, master. By the way, I lived in Sansome Village my entire life, so I don't know anything about the outside world. I was checking my CD, and I often see things like continents, planets, and even Universe. Master, what are these things?"
Kuslau wasn't surprised by Rean's question. Those who came from humble backgrounds often knew nothing about the world. "Laica, attend me."
That raised the question, how did this empire disappear together with over a thousand Universes? Such information wasn't available. However, there was a remark in the history of the Werdlem Empire depicted in the terminal. It was said that to prevent further conflicts, the Werdlem Emperor created a paradise for the entire Werdlem Empire to exist within. It was said that they exist inside this same self-called paradise.
It seemed Rean and Roan were in one of such Universes and quite a remote one. With the exception of the Universe where the Werdlem Imperial Family lived, all the other Universes didn't have names either. They, too, had ID codes. It's just that those codes were a lot simpler. For example, Rean and Roan's actual Universe was Universe number F974. That was it.
Rean and Roan commented through their connection. 'So much information... This Werdlem is a monster indeed.'
Roan nodded. 'That F in front of the number of our Universe. That is most likely related to the ranking of Universes in the Werdlem Empire. In the information of the terminal, there are plenty of A, B, C, D, E, and F.'
Rean agreed with him. 'In any case, now we have an idea of where we are. The only doubt is how we can leave this place and return to Lisan.'
Roan pondered a bit and decided to ignore that for now. 'Forget it. We are still too weak to think about leaving the Universe. Since you are there, see if you can find these items.' Roan then passed a list with several herbs and other materials to Rean. He even passed their appearance through their memory sharing.
'Are these...' Rean could guess.
'Yes,' and Roan confirmed. 'These are the items I need for the Void Shattering Pill.'
