Chapter 361 Sharing Is Caring

Master Rain flew forward and I had to move towards the retainer, grabbing him from under the shoulder and flying both of us after him.

"T-thank you, Shen Bao," he said with a heavy voice.

"You're in pretty rough shape," I said.

"Yeah, but it was worth it for having a duke out with the Golden Titan, though, I don't feel it right now..." he said coughing blood.

"You might want to stay quiet, talking will only harm you, Master Rain!" I said.

"What?" he said as he continued on forward moving past the spatial rifts.

"How can you navigate this place, it has no directions," I said.

"The Space Here has no directions, but I made a spatial anchor outside, I'm guiding us towards it, just keep following me," he said.

And just as he mentioned, a black door seemed to appear out of nowhere, it was his anchor.

He went through it and I followed after immediately.

The three of us appeared outside of the entirety of the Under Void where the spatial folds were gathered up.

A few moments later, the spatial folds seemed to fuse with themselves and corrected the spatial anomaly returning a physical space deformity into normal nothingness in space.

"Damn, we got lucky to get out on time," I said.

"There was nothing to do with luck there, it was all calculations. Anyway," he said as he turned to me.

"How did you kill the Golden Titan?" he asked.

"Euh, soul power, I had more than he had," I answered honestly.

"Hmmm, I'll accept that answer, for now, we'll need to head back to the heavenly academy, I have a feeling that what has been happening here had some aftermath over there. I've sensed the same feeling from the creature we fought back at the academy," he said.

"There is no need to rush," I said.

"Why? Do you know something," Master Rain asked.

"Yes," I said as I summoned out the hoverboard.

I slowly placed the retainer on top of the hoverboard and was about to hand him some pills. But he stopped me.

"Don't waste your precious pills, I can manage with my own," he said and pulled a pure white pill from his holding bag.

The pill didn't seem to have an ounce of Qi in it, it felt like a sugar candy, plain and natural to the sight.

He popped it in his mouth, and soon, all the wounds on his body seemed to disappear, not to mention even the blood on his clothes had disappeared.

"What the hell is that pill?" I questioned, "I've never seen something like that."

"It's a Perpetuality Defying Pill," he said as he sat back on the hoverboard. "It didn't heal me, it eliminated the cause of my injuries, fully rejecting them, thus affecting the effect of me being wounded," He said.

It took me a moment to realize the power behind this absurd pill and I could only mutter, "Op."

"What is op?" asked the retainer.

"Oh, I meant Overpowered, what the hell, how can you reject a cause that had already happened," I said.

"It's not something anyone can do, only a person proficient in the Dao of Cause and Effect can manage it. And even I have a limit to how much I can alter or reject. Wounds that aren't deadly are easy to treat, however when it comes to soul damage or even death, nothing can save you from that," He said.

"Enough with the chit-chat, tell me, Shen Bao, what do you mean about not worrying about the academy?" he said.

"Well, that thing that just died. It's a matriarch-type creature, it creates clones and copies of itself and sends them out to feast in preparation for its timely arrival. Something like this happened back then at the Ancient Sect. And the Golden Titan failed to stop it. The Imperial Clan had been containing that thing for a long time, but since the first host had reached the expiration date, they needed someone strong to replace him, thus they tricked the Ancient Titan into coming here and meeting his end."

"But, if the Golden Titan was used as a host, how come his Ancient Sect had perished?" Master Rain asked.

"It is because the Imperial Clan didn't kill the main body of this parasite, but only sealed it," I said.

"And how does that affect the death of the Ancient Sect nor us not worrying about the Heavenly Academy?" asked the retainer this time.

"It is because Shen Bao actually Killed the main body, and didn't just seal it like what the Imperial Clan did, thus the clones should all die when the main body dies. Good, let's head back, it is such a sad thing we didn't get any valuable treasures from this adventure," Master Said sighing.

"I wouldn't be too sure about that," I smiled.

"What, you got something good?" Master Rain asked.

"Yes, three things in fact, and I wouldn't have shared them with you if you didn't show me genuine concern back then," I said.

"Concern? When the hell did I show concern about a brat like you," Master Rain denied.

But he knew what I was talking about, the moment I showed up in the under void, he urged me to run away and leave them. If he didn't really care he wouldn't have spoken those words.

"I have three things, do you like to know what they are?" I asked.

"I don't think you can value a good treasure even if it hit you on the head but speak, let's see what treasures you have," Master Rain said.

I sighed and threw them a small vial each.

They both took the vials and their eyes widened like saucers. And it was the first time I saw the eyes of the retainer, they were sky blue eyes and it was pretty funny to see his expressions now.

"By the heavens! This is Stone-Aged Milk! And so much of it! brat how did you get this!"

"I told you I found good things, and this isn't even the best of them," I said.

"What else do you have?" asked Master Rain.

"Do you know how the Imperials Used to Travel back in the day?" I asked.

"All I remember is a verse from an old text, The Imperials Reigned the Heavens and Earth, riding the sound of thunder, and the roars of the world."

I suppose you found something related to that verse?"

"Well, yes, I have one of their means of transportation, though it is in terrible shape, I have a Thunder Bull Carriage. With its soul, the only problem is that I know nothing about fixing damaged souls," I said.

"..."

"..."

"What's with the silence," I asked.

"Well... I don't know about a thunder bull carriage, but...I know someone who can help with soul damage. Though, I don't really want to talk to them," Master Rain said.

,m "Why? If you know someone you should just ask them," I said.

"Nah, it's better not, also this thunder bull carriage, I think it would be better for your own...euh, advancement, to learn how to fix it yourself," said Master Rain rather awkwardly which was strange.

"Okay... lastly, any of you know how to hatch a Saint Beast?" I asked.

"I have some experience with wildlife, I'm the one taking care of Master Rain's beasts on his planet," the retainer said.

"Oh, that would be pretty good, I have something for you to hatch then," I said as I pulled the egg I got earlier.

The moment the retainer saw the egg, he took a step back and so did Master Rain.

"Where did you get that," they both asked.

"What do you mean? It's a Dark Beast egg, I got it from the prison," I said.

"Euh... that's not a Dark Beast Egg, they went extinct. And the color is different," Master Rain said.

"I don't know about any color, but this is definitely a Dark Beast Egg," I said.

"How can you be so sure?" Master Rain said, "Dark Beasts went extinct more than ten thousand years ago, and that prison that we were in, it had nothing but the bones of that race, also the Qi signature is not there," Master Rain said.

"That's because you're trying to scan it using Saint Qi, this thing hadn't hatched yet, the last burst of Saint Qi that it needed from its parents had never been supplied to it, thus it never hatched and now it's in a situation stuck between life and death. I don't have Saint Qi, so I cannot hatch it myself, that's why I asked you guys for help," I said.

"Nope, I'm not touching that, especially if it's a Dark Beast," Master Rain said.

"Neither will I, I don't want that thing to imprint on me," said the retainer.

"Bunch of useless old men," I grumbled as I placed the egg back in my Lord of Lord's pagoda.

"Don't say that, Dark Beasts aren't something you find every day on the street, especially since they went extinct! Also, they're hard to tame, hard to nurture, hard to raise, and they are loud as a volcano. They are useless in combat since they can't fight in the day, and can only serve as wardens, and if they're hungry, especially at night, they won't mind using their master as a snack, these things are only good as watchdogs..." Master Rain said.

"Also did I mentions that they are highly aggressive," he added.

"Yeah, I experienced that first hand, The Golden Titan had a rough time with one of them," I said.

"Oh... well yeah you didn't forget what happened at the Ancient Sect, damn, lucky you. Anyway, let's head back to the Heavenly Academy, I need to report a few matters, also keep the Thunder Bull Carriage a secret, because if it is actually something the imperials used, a lot of people will pay attention to you, and some might even come to 'Buy' it from you if you know what I mean," Master Rain said.

"Hey, I thought you'd have my back," I said.

"I would, but I can't babysit you every damn minute of the day, also you need real-life experience, if some powerful cultivator comes to vie for your treasures, I'll beat them black and blue, but if you lose it to someone of your cultivation level, you only have yourself and your ability to blame," Master Rain said.

"...Fair Enough," I replied.

"Alright, let's go then," Master Rain said and the three of us moved forward.
