Chapter 231 Xuan Empire's Capital
Time passed, at least a few days.
It was exactly three years after Davis arrived at the Tripartite Alliance Territory through the space tunnel in the secret entrance.
Outside the West End Valley, a silhouette quietly left, without making a single sound, or leaking a presence of its aura.
In the nearby forest, the silhouette came out of the forest and stood by a cliff, viewing the clear skies and basking in the rays of the sun.
"Feels good to be out of that cave..." Davis breathed the fresh scent, deeply feeling the wind that grazed past all over his clothes and face.
He stretched out his limbs and took a deep breath again. Suddenly, his battle aura erupted scaring away the Magical Beasts which tried to hunt him for breakfast.
He didn't try to conceal his physical presence at all, so the magical beasts followed him thinking that he was easy prey.
Exhaling out, he kept his aura back and concealed himself again.
'Now, where exactly should I go?' Davis pondered.
'Should I move to some capital and make a name for myself?' Davis was no fool. He decided not to enter Cloud Spring Mercenaries again.
He thought of concealing himself with that mask, and enter the capital as an Alchemist to procure the resources he needed to improve his cultivation.
As for why he decided not to return to Cloud Spring Mercenaries? He knew that his identity should've been compromised from those who have escaped that day.
They would've definitely investigated him. If he returned, and somehow got captured, it was possible that they would have some kind of means to figure out that he came from the Second Layer; The Grand Sea Continent, the place of the Immortal Inheritance.
This was also one of the reasons why Davis chose this place.
The Tripartite Alliance couldn't act as they pleased in this place without a relevant and valid reason.
They wouldn't think that Davis stayed in such a place either since they would still think he was stuck or dead in the West End Valley.
Currently, he was staying in an inn, wearing a mask that hid his facial features. In fact, he wore the mask from the time he left West End Valley and didn't remove it even once.
Now, his facial expression was odd which was hidden behind the mask. He was truly taken aback.
The price for staying in this inn alone was something he couldn't afford to spend casually.
It took him exactly 1 Low-Level Spirit Stone to stay here for a single day. Was it worth it?
Yes, as the amenities and infrastructure of the room were big enough to accommodate 15 people even with ample space remaining.
With the remainder being 8 Low-Level Spirit Stones, he knew he had to incredibly frugal in his spending.
Yes, it was 8 and not 9 Low-Level Spirit Stones he had left because he had to pay the toll for entering the capital as well and it cost him the same amount of resources he used to pay the inn.
Exactly a Low-Level Spirt Stone each.
If he knew this fact beforehand, then he would've considered traveling to this place again but still would've chosen to enter.
As for the ones that Old Man Garvin killed before, their resources were used by him to re-fortify the formations in the tomb and build a cultivation chamber for Davis to break through into the Seventh Stage of Soul Forging Cultivation in the future.
Although Garvin hid this fact, after he had died, Davis explored the underground cave for a while and found out that he left some items and spatial rings that belonged to the Tripartite Alliance, along with some notes.
Those notes contained his explanations of what to do in case if he no longer existed in this world.
