Chapter 1425 Ready to become a 'King Realm Cultivator'
"What about my mother's soul?"
Soon, Ajax asked about his mother, Myla.
She was also a powerful emperor realm cultivator just like his father. So, Ajax wanted to know about his mother's whereabouts.
'She is somewhere far away from this world.'
Vaugh's voice became very weak as he replied to Ajax.
"Far away? Where?"
Ajax raised his brows.
'Yes. I used the artifact I found in the inheritance grounds to send your mother's soul along with that artifact.'
Vaugh explained how he sent his wife Myla's soul to some safe place.
"Where is that place? Let's go and find her?"
Ajax wanted to find his mother and help her in reconstructing her new body.
'Sigh…I only know it is somewhere safe. So, don't worry about your mother.'
Vaugh sighed as he didn't give any chance for Ajax to speak and continued, 'I stored her soul in a much more powerful artifact than your artifact aka System. So, focus on increasing your strength for now.'
'...'
Ajax was speechless at his father's words.
From the looks of it, his father didn't seem to worry much about Ajax's mother, making Ajax doubt whether he was really his father.
"Then how am I going to meet her?"
Nevertheless, after waiting for a moment, Ajax asked with a serious look.
'Soon'
Vaugh replied only a single word.
'As I said, her soul is stored in a much more powerful system than the system you have. Once she finds a suitable host, her host will become very powerful with just a small effort.'
Vaugh could sense Ajax's emotions. So, he explained a few more things to make Ajax's anxious heart calm.
'A powerful system?'
Ajax's eyes lit up when he heard his father's words.
"So, there is another system in this world."
He didn't expect a second system to exist.
Moreover, it was in the hands of his mother, giving him a pleasant surprise.
"By the way, father. I am really curious about the system's origins. Can you tell me where you get this system?"
According to Elder Boron, the system Ajax was currently using belongs to his father Vaugh Spiriteye.
And the guardians betrayed them when they were retrieving the second system that was more powerful than the one used by his father.
Because of the otherworldly experts' sudden appearance, his father stored Ajax's mother's soul in a powerful system and sent it to a faraway place where no otherworldly experts could find it.
Whereas his father stored his own soul in his system before asking Elder Boron to take care of his son and the artifact.
Since his father was the original owner of his system, Ajax wanted to know about the system's origins.
'You are not powe….'
"Don't repeat the same lines of the system."
Before Vaugh could finish his words, Ajax interrupted his father's words.
'It is a long story. After arguing with you earlier, I used up all my energy.'
However, Vaugh didn't have any intention of revealing the origins of the system to his son; instead, he said he didn't have any energy left.
"Wait…don't fall into the slumber."
Ajax knew what his father was trying to do. So, he tried to stop him.
'Nurture the Soul nourishing tree well. Let's talk more about the system's origins and my origins. What do you say?'
As he spoke, Vaugh's voice became weaker and weaker.
Just like the system's origins, his father Vaugh's origins were also mysterious because even Elder Boron didn't know about it.
It was like one day, Vaugh appeared in the Purple stone world out of nowhere.
'Looks like he is really not joking about not having any energy.'
Ajax felt his father was genuinely weak to talk. So, he nodded his head and said, "Okay then. I will try my best in finding the Plant essence to nurture the Soul nourishment tree."
'Plant essence?'
Vaugh seemed to think about it for a moment before replying, 'You can find it in the Elven world. The higher the grade of the world, the more quantity and purity you will fin..'
Vaugh's voice was cut off in the middle.
'Sigh…I was able to talk with him for a few minutes.'
Ajax sighed as he knew the reason why his father's voice was suddenly cut off.
'Right! He gave a tip that the plant essence can be found in the Elven world. I guess I have to pay a visit to my elven world before going to the mutated bronze demon world.'
Since he has a normal grade elven world, Ajax wanted to take a look at how much it improved.
Nevertheless, he was sure that he would not find any plant essence in his elven world because it just started recovering after being a barren world for a long time.
'Wait a second'
Suddenly, Ajax's eyes brightened up when he thought about something.
'How did I forget about it? The first place I should visit after breaking through to the King realm should be the Five elemental world.'
When he thought about his elven world, Ajax suddenly remembered the Ancient evergreen wood.
Ancient Evergreen Woods is one of the regions in the Five elemental world and it was a place for Forest elves.
'Since the system already generated a mission to take over the last region in the Five Elemental World, I will finish that mission before trying to complete other missions.'
Once he becomes a King realm cultivator, Ajax knew it would be an easy thing to conquer the last region of the Five elemental world because the highest level of the forest elf was the peak king realm cultivator.
'As long as I defeat him and show that I already conquered the remaining three regions in the Five Elemental World, they will have no choice but to submit to me.'
While waiting for the devourer eagle king to finish his mission, Ajax was planning his missions one by one.
Ajax wanted to complete all his missions and start venturing to the normal human or greater human worlds.
'Even though I am visiting a smaller demon world every day, I am not satisfied with it. I need to start conquering the normal worlds.'
So, Ajax planned to enter a normal world and secretly build his power while learning about the power structure of that normal world.
After learning enough things about that normal world, he would use his power to conquer it in a single go.
'Let's check what are the rewards for conquering the Ancient evergreen woods.'
Ajax opened the quest tab to check the mission details.
'Ding,
Mission name:- Conquer the Ancient Evergreen Woods.
Mission rewards:- Ancient world tree seed.
Mission objective:- Get the acknowledgment of the forest elves.
Information:- The ancient evergreen woods are the heart of the Five elemental world and if you don't get their acknowledgement, there is nothing you can do to upgrade the Five elemental world.
'Sigh…if it is defeating or killing them, it would have been easy; however, getting the acknowledgement will be a little difficult.'
Ajax sighed; however, he didn't give up on the mission.
He would only find out how difficult it would be after giving it a try.
'Ding,
The host's contracted spirit beast conquered a smaller bronze demon world.
'Ding,
Please enter the core realm to extract the world core.
Soon, Ajax received a couple of system notifications, making him come out of his thoughts.
'Looks like he is getting better at this job.'
Looking at the devourer eagle king in the distance, Ajax silently thought in his head.
'Time to pick the world core and breakthrough into the King realm.'
Putting aside all his thoughts, Ajax entered the core realm.
Since he picked dozens of world cores, it didn't take much time for Ajax as he came out of the world core in just a few moments.
'Merge all the smaller demon world cores I have.'
Without wasting any time, Ajax ordered the system to merge the world cores as he returned back to the Purple stone world along with Alder.
'Ding,
Merging 10 smaller world cores into a normal world core.
'Ding,
Merging finished. Please use it to increase your cultivation.
By the time Ajax returned to his palace in the Purple stone world, he received the system notifications regarding the merging of the world cores.
'Use the normal world core and increase my cultivation.'
Ajax had been waiting for this day for so long and he didn't want to waste any more on increasing his cultivation.
'Ding,
The host used a normal core and increased his cultivation to level 10 elite general realm.
'Ding,
The host met the conditions to break through into the King realm. Use any world core to break through into the King realm.
'Ding,
The higher the grade of the world core, the higher the battle prowess the host would gain.
Soon, Ajax received a series of system notifications, making him excited.
'Finally, I can break through into the King realm.'
Ajax revealed an excited smile as he muttered, 'Greater world core, let me see you once before using you.'
Even though Ajax had a Greater world core, he had never seen one and since he was going to use it today, he planned to check it once.
'Swoosh'
Soon, a golden-coloured orb that completely filled his palm appeared in his hands.
'Just looking at you makes me eat you.'
It was brightly shining and looked just like a heavenly fruit that makes everyone eat it and Ajax was also no exception to use.
'Anyway, it's time to break through into the King realm.'
