After setting the mission to fuse the two techniques, three days have passed, now considering that it was past midnight— four days have passed. Chen had his moment of loss in composure and every time, it will be because of an S-rank mission. If possible, he would be willing to go to the extreme to accomplish it.He could use the two techniques simultaneously, but he realized that the external and internal shock forces generated by the two techniques cancel each other out eventually. The mix of the technique was only as good as a massaging technique."Troubled?" Ah Yin didn't open her eyes. She sat on the luxurious crimson bed and inquired calmly."At least, you're progressing," Chen mumbled, slightly envious. Ah Yin did reveal the strange situation when she focused on blue silver grass. It actually refined her perception and control which assisted in gaining more control over her attacks.Opening her eyes, she looked at Chen for a moment and stood up."Let's practice. I've had enough
"You really never visited this kind of tavern?" Chen inquired while both of them had booked a table. Amazingly enough, the redlight district of the city still represented uniform structure but within the tavern, men and women in extremely revealing clothes walked around and waiting on the tables while on two raises platforms, on the beat of sensual music, two women continued to slowly dance in an arousing manner.Drinking fresh juice from her mug, Ah Yin shook her head and replied in a slightly reserved manner, "I never took the time to visit such establishments." Her eyes followed the workers and she looked quite interested by the general idea of this place."Smaller towns or cities don't usually have such a large business and wouldn't entertain in such a manner. It's in places like Balak City where you can find these kinds of locations," Chen smirked and drank juice from his mug, too. The establishment did not deal in alcohol but juice squeezed out of exotic fruits that serve the re
Chen picked Olivia for the journey. She had the greatest sense of danger and could easily find a hidden spot for herself. The distance of the village stationed close to the border acting as a supply base for the Silvers Kingdom was 200 kilometers away. A distance that would have taken more than half a day to reach by an ordinary carriage but on wings, this distance was hardly worth three hours of time.However, Chen wasn't in a hurry. Instead, he slowly walked while thinking about his circumstances while Olivia would follow at her own pace.His Martial Soul— Three-eyed Silver Lion— has three attributes: Spirit, Light, and Spatial. Ordinarily, if he absorbed a spirit ring or a spirit soul that has all the three attributes, the skill he would receive will belong to his own Martial Soul's major attribute i.e. Spirit.Bright Goddess Butterfly has two attributes: Spirit and Light. Originally, Chen wanted to use his combat techniques and supplement himself by being an auxiliary spirit maste
"L-lord, we have gathered them all," Casually sitting over the wooden ledge of the first floor of the chief's house, Chen looked at every scout and soldier he had stripped. Their armors and weapons were already stored in the storage ring. Youths and adults of the village surrounded the area. A hint of fear but boundless fascination in their eyes as they looked at the unconscious group of soldiers.The one who spoke was the chief of the village. His already bent back bending slightly with the tilt of his cane supporting him. His voice raspy and dry, but his tone sincere."Tell me what happened," Chen spoke calmly.The more information he has, the better."Lord Spirit Master, these soldiers of Silvers Kingdom are invading the nearby territory. But instead of saving the hostages, the Balak Kingdom is responding in kind and holding territories over in the Silvers Kingdom!" The man stated harshly as Chen's eyelids twitched. He still wore the clothes of the scout but nobody dared think of h
The consuming use of his second spirit skill made Chen come to a tiring conclusion that he, too, needed to train in Heart Separation Control like Ah Yin. The technique wasn't just suitable to auxiliary and control-type spirit masters. It was beneficial to all spirit masters.Why would Chen need this skill?To turn his control of spirit energy extremely fine.This is the essence of Heart Separation Control. Different actions require different amounts of energy but spirit skills are not conscious. They need absolute control to preserve spirit energy when dealing with an easier task.For instance, a mosquito can be killed with an accurate slap as well as burning the entire house. But time and energy are conserved in the former scenario.As Chen's spirit energy grows, his basic expenditure on spirit skills will grow simultaneously. It isn't a bad thing. This was simply the spirit skills matching their effects to the ranks of the user. However, a spirit master who can control this will hav
Soldiers subconsciously glanced at the pale-faced man with shabby mustard-colored hair. He had his hands tied behind his back with Chen following him intently. This individual was the enemy spirit master and right now, he was caught by Chen.commentThe destination of the escort wasn't a settlement, but a single outpost managed by a small group of Balak scouts. Once the escort was successful, the captain of the team handed Chen a folded certificate. This certificate of success was needed to justify his success of the mission.Nodding, Chen left while pulling the spirit master. Unlike the last time, the mission's time limit was only for the day so he was even more impatient. Now Chen felt that such low time limits were specifically placed to turn the spirit masters more frantic in their communication with their opponents, leading each other to quickly dispose of their opponents since it was the simplest method.Instead of speaking, Chen directly tore the man's clothes. He already had e
wn the youth's body, Chen didn't find anything aside from the belt with black stripes and nail-sized round pieces of jades inlaid.'A storage essence tool,' Chen instantly realized and he unbuckled the belt before pulling away. By now, the dog had returned with a loud bark."Let's see," Chen hummed, sending his spirit energy inside the belt, and was surprised to find that each round jade represented a cubic meter of space and there were a total of 24 pieces. Unlike the ring with the huge space, this one was more beneficial for organizing and storing items and weapons needed daily.Finally, Chen pulled out a square red token with the nickname: Luo San Pao, etched on it. There were no merit points which made Chen sigh.But he wasn't done. He had quite a lot of time this time so he gazed at the cautious dog licking his master's face while barking towards Chen occasionally.'The martial soul has shared senses with the spirit master. Are there any limitations to distance? I did kick the po
Chen still needed some time to be truly familiar with Balak City. He mostly remained within the inn, took part in missions, or spend some of his time in local taverns: not for the bothersome task such as collecting information but to try local dishes and calm his nerves.But Chen himself had long entered the information network of the city for being able to complete six missions was already impressive. Ordinary spirit masters either stop after their second or third missions or simply disappear. After all, if they can kill, they must also be ready to die and disappear. Who among the truly experienced spirit master didn't know of this?Experience didn't mean Spirit Title. In some manner, the lower-ranked rogue spirit masters were craftier. Their wealth of experience can allow them to face even a higher-ranked, untrained spirit master.Six missions meant a watershed.Chen understood this fact once he got the mission to destroy the fortress. To someone else, destroying was even harder tha
