Chapter 281: Deep into Grind

Chapter 281: Deep into Grind

Ja Sun wasn't only hard at trying to speed up time in a limit region through the virtue of arrays and runes. After all, arrays are just another form of equations and runes are its language. He needed time to complete what he wished so as to not wait to observe the complete process.

"Violet, this right here is an anchor rune. It can be used to exchange the stability rune and have a more restrictive effect so you would usually need to change the flow rune with weaving." Ja Sun muttered as he drew runes upon runes over a flower.

Violet watched her master at work intently. If she wasn't led on incorrectly then she would be able to grow stronger after reaching a certain standard in this art. Her yellow eyes were wide and her vertical black pupils were narrower than a thin needle with utter concentration.

As Ja Sun worked silently, she followed his actions and drew runes, too. But when compared to Ja Sun who only slowed down so that she could see his actions, Violet didn't only have trouble drawing these runes but she also had slight trouble attaching them in a manner that formed an array.

"Cool!" Ja Yin, on the other hand, continued to copy Ja Sun with ease... of course, she was a little rough around the edges but that didn't stop her from learning and him from imparting.

The difference between the two was their reserves of spirit energy. While Violet was still shackled in the confines of a 1000-year-old spirit beast, Ja Yin was at the next level already.

"Don't be impatient... with time, literally. Alright, this is real stuff we're doing and not something as simple as forming some gathering array and whatnot." Ja Sun calmly added and when his work was done, he waited for Violet and Ja Yin to reach that step, and only then did he activate his rune.

A formless flow of energy entered the flower and suddenly, it began to bloom but the next second, it was already wilting and finally turned to ashes alongside his rune. Updated from novelbIn.(c)om

Violet and Ja Yin silently activated their arrays but it let out a crisp noise before sizzling into failure, making their expression turn bleak.

"No worries..." Ja Sun shrugged. He had noted a few things already. First, he needed to add a dial to his array, and next, he needed to actually connect his divine intent this time...

Although, it was a bit sad that he couldn't achieve this array even after a week had expired. This meant that out there, somewhere, when it came to manipulation of time, Ja Sun had a lower comprehension compared to a similarly S-ranked talent... let's see if he can accomplish this within a month to get the A-ranked reward instead.

"Violet..." At the break of dawn, Ja Sun whispered. Her eyelashes fluttered open, revealing her slightly enamored gaze as he continued, "Do you know what's more troubling than one beast in heat...?"

Biting her rather voluptuous lips, Violet whimpered, "Master... it's two beasts in heat..."

"Then this is hell..."

Ja Sun looked at the three women sprawled over while Zi Ji had a furious blush and Bi Ji continued to shake her head constantly beside Ja Sun.

Violet closed her eyes shut. She hadn't really felt embarrassed even when she was naked all the time since she has lived this way from the very beginning but now she did feel a little ashamed at her body's annual needs. It's not a lie that most beasts have a mating cycle and that is the period when humans hunt specific spirit beasts the most, too. However, Violet has been constantly forced to accomplish her needs alone due to her human mutation not being acceptable in a more beastly environment.

You think humans are discriminative? Think again.

But worse than that was Xiao Bei...

Bi Ji's lips constantly twitched as she finally adjusted her glasses and looked away from the brown-haired woman and spoke to her superior, "You do know what you have to do, right?"

Ja Sun nodded, "Yes, use my divine intent to control their mindset temporarily so the three of them do one another while we watch... probably over a snack..."

"No!" Bi Ji snorted while Zi Ji's flush deepened as she glanced at Bi Ji surreptitiously.

"Then I don't know what else to do... Ja Yin would feel well with a spank or two but these two... aren't my problems."

To be precise, the report suggested that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan was finally having open connections with Spirit Hall using trading as a means for it but the clan has always been the trusted ally of the Heaven Dou Imperial Clan and this only meant one thing... the situation was shifting and not in a good way.

The greater problem was the expedition the two powerhouses had begun under the name of future unity.

The Sunset Forest!

The Extreme North, the Western Ocean, Star Dou Great Forest, and Sunset Forest have always been extremely important but open locations not because the Empires didn't want to control them but they couldn't! Especially the ocean, the north, and Star Dou Great Forest.

Alone, Dai Father-son duo was still under the impression that they wouldn't be able to tackle Sunset Forest but if Spirit Hall and the Heaven Dou Empire ally together... they will control a major source of revenue and resources!

"Father, I think the Spirit Hall has something on the Heaven Dou Empire... else, Emperor Xue wouldn't have taken such a decision... the Spirit Hall with their number of spirit masters are becoming a threat to both the Empires..."

"And that may just explain why Bibi Dong sent such a... careless entourage a few weeks ago..." Dai Laohu's gaze darkened.

"Indeed," Dai Taiyin nodded but both fell silent. What could have Bibi Dong gotten on Emperor Xue to make him take such actions so suddenly?

Still, just when Dai Taiyin was about to leave, he was stopped, "I think your mother and I will make a trip and see what we can do during this expedition. For now, you will take matters into your own hands alongside clan elder."

Just when his son was about to interrupt, Dai Laohu chuckled, "Little Zhu is pregnant with your second child... and it may just be your second son. Stay here. Spend time with both of your sons until you can and prepare them... their life and yours wouldn't get any easier. Only in struggle, both emotional and physical do we get strong."

Dai Taiyin's expression turned complicated... he, of course, knew what his father was trying to say. The prominent tradition of the clan is to make the two sons battle one another... for the throne of the next Emperor. He had gone through with it and his sons are expected to accomplish the same.

"I understand," He muttered and took his leave.
