Chapter 1987: Second Task [Completed]
The dragons were more powerful than the human cultivators, and since each of these Dragons was considered a genius in their worlds, Ajax took a little more time than the Celestial Pillars guarded by the Human Cultivators.
'I think I better go back now.'
The time given for his second task would be finished in a few more minutes. Hence, Ajax wanted to return to his Celestial Pillar for the rewards.
'Swoosh'
'Swoosh'
Since his Quasi-God Official Skill [Aetherial Wind Cloak] was still active, Ajax was not worried about the delay.
'Ding,
The host's Monster Vine, Viny, has fully devoured a 220-year-old Monster Vine and successfully reached 1000 years old.
While rushing towards his Celestial Pillar, Ajax received a system notification regarding his Monster Vine.
'Finally, it became a 200-year old Monster Vine after devouring ten 200+ years old Monster Vines.'
Checking the system notification, Ajax smiled.
Once Ajax began his mission of destroying the Celestial Pillars, he successfully destroyed 30 Celestial Pillars and gained 30 Monster Vines belonging to the owners of those Celestial Pillars.
Among them, half of the Monster Vines are 200 years old. Clearly, their owners chose the reward of instantly growing their Monster Vines to 200 years old unlike Ajax, who chose the Celestial Cultivation Chamber.
Of course, the other cultivators chose the Greater World Core to become the owner of the Celestial Pillar and chose the Celestial Cultivation Chamber as the reward for completing their first task issued by the Celestial Pillar.
Ajax stored those Monster Vines away and only fed the 200+ years old Monster Vines to his Monster Vine and due to the lack of high devouring efficiency, Viny had to eat 10 such Monster Vines to successfully increase its age from 150 to 1000 years.
Anyway, Ajax was happy that it had finally reached 1000 years old because he knew that it was time for the Monster Vine to awaken its second ability.
'Ding,
The host's Monster Vine is awakening its second ability.
'Ding,
The system suggests the host feed his Monster Vine with more Monster Vines to increase the chances of awakening a good Second Ability.
Ajax didn't answer her; instead, he took the Monster Vines from Siora and asked her to take the guess.
While waiting for her reply, Ajax fed the newly collected Monster Vines to his Viny, letting it devour.
"25?"
Siora thought for a moment and said a number that she felt was right!
"Close."
Ajax smiled and without keeping her in suspense, he revealed, "30. I have destroyed 30 Celestial Pillars and if not for the time limit, I would have destroyed all the Celestial Pillars."
If someone heard his words, they would feel that Ajax was overboard in his bragging; however, Siora didn't doubt it and believed it.
Soon, Ajax shared more details regarding his mission of destroying the Celestial Pillars while waiting for two things.
1) For the Monster Vine to finish the awakening of its second ability.
2) For the Second Task's one-hour time limit to complete so that he could receive the rewards for his one hour's hard work.
Time continued to pass and the last few minutes passed by without any surprise as both the things Ajax was waiting for, finally got finished.
[Congratulations to the participant for completing the second task of the Celestial Pillar
within an hour]
'Ding,
Congratulations. The host's Monster Vine has successfully awakened its Second Ability.
Two notifications, one from the Ancient Voice belonging to the Celestial Pillar and another one from the system, both came at the same time, giving him double happiness.
