Chapter 3008: Goodwill
The only reason the twins even bothered coming back to the Gondel Clan was because they could cultivate without much worry. They wanted to be at least in the Nascent Soul Realm before heading to the World Splitting Sect to learn more about Sword Intent. They now had a lot of Rank Five and even some Rank Six and Seven Spiritual Stones, so their cultivation would
soar soon.
"I"m going back to cultivate. Go and see what the kid wants and come back to help with the cultivation," Roan said before leaving on his own.
Rean shrugged and went back to the central area of the Gondel Clan. At the same time, he kept the Dimensional Realm open for Tony to feel the outside. "Tony, how is it? Anyone compatible with you?"
Tony looked around and spread his senses. Yet, he couldn"t see anyone who could fit the criteria. "No... However, I can only see about a kilometer of distance with my senses now."
"Oh!" Rean was surprised to hear that. It was even smaller than his Spiritual Sense range. "How come?"
"I think it is because I was born in the Sunlight Realm," he tried to guess. "The moment the Sunlight Realm disappeared, my senses simply couldn"t get far anymore. When we left the mountain and arrived in the capital, it stabilized around a kilometer of distance. There might be someone compatible with me in this Clan, but I can"t see at the moment."
"Did you find someone in the Capital?" Rean took the chance to inquire.
"If I had, I would have told you. I don"t want to stay stuck in your Dimensional Realm for much longer either," Tony explained.
Rean shrugged and let it go. "Fine. Just keep your senses spread and tell me if you find anyone. I will stroll around the Clan after I"m done with Kuslau, so perhaps you can find someone. If not, we can give it another try in the capital once we finish our cultivation here."
Rean finally reached Kuslau"s residence and was brought to see him by another one of his disciples.
"You brat! Where the h.e.l.l have you been?" Kuslau quickly complained. He had been looking for Rean since he returned from the Capital, but he simply couldn"t find him.
Rean smiled. "Well, I had finished the obligatory tasks the clan rules dictate us to do before leaving for the Capital, so I spent some time there with my brother."
Kuslau narrowed his eyes. "I watched the contest in the Rusbav Festival. Why didn"t you take part in it?"
"Master, even if I have some talent with swords, how could I put a fight against the other compet.i.tors?" Rean asked back. "It would be suicide, especially since the big powers all closed the platforms."
Kuslau shook his head. "And so did we! We had our own platform and stopped anyone from entering it other than our own members. You should have just taken part. Perhaps it would have been you who would get a wish granted. Above all, as my disciple, you should show yourself, or others will think my disciples are cowards."
Rean scratched the back of his head. "Sorry, sorry. I will take part in the contest next year, then."
Kuslau sighed, seeing Rean"s lack of interest in the topic. "Fine, forget it. I called you here because I have a mission for you."
"Oh?" Rean"s interest was picked. It was the first time Kuslau ever asked him anything. "What is it about?"
"You don"t seem very enthusiastic..." Kuslau could still see the lack of interest in Rean"s face. "Whatever. You will be when you hear it."
Kuslau then used his Communication Device to send Rean a message. Rean quickly opened and accessed the link in there. Following that, a map appeared on the screen together with a specific point on the it. Rean zoomed out the map and saw that the location was actually outside the Travil Region. Not only that, it was pretty much on the other side of the Rusbav Country. "This place is quite far..."
Kuslau didn"t know whether to laugh or cry. "Can"t you see where it is pointing out?" Rean zoomed the map once again and read the name. "Spiritual Canyon? What is it about?"
Kuslau sighed again. "You are only in the Foundation Establishment Realm, so how come you don"t know? That should be the dream of any cultivator of your level."
He continued. "The Spiritual Canyon is a place where Spiritual Energy acc.u.mulates in great quant.i.ties. At the very bottom, there is a body cleansing pond that the Galapadien Organization controls. The Spiritual Energy there is so pure that it can clean one"s body of most impurities from cultivating with Spiritual Stones. It would be especially good for you since you got to your level with the help of pills. If you want to stabilize your foundation completely and eliminate the side effects of breaking through with pills, that is the place for you to go."
Rean bitterly smiled. Sure, the pond seemed very good. However, he truly had no issues with impurities or whatever. His foundation was most likely the strongest in the entire planet, just on par with Roan"s. Nonetheless, he understood his Master"s good intentions. After all, the story he created was that his foundation wasn"t very good because of the pills.
But it was then that he noticed something. "Didn"t you mention it was a mission? Am I supposed to do something there?"
Kuslau nodded. "Smart. In fact, this Spiritual Cleaning Pond goes even deeper and through various tunnels. It is quite risky to get, but there are a few Spiritual Cleansing Algae at the deepest parts of those tunnels. I will be sending you and my other disciples there during the next opening in a week"s time. Well, it is more of a mission for my other disciples. You just need to use the pond to cleanse your body and foundation as much as possible. It will stay open for three days, so make sure to make good use of it. Oh, and I got a slot for your brother as well. I know you wouldn"t feel good if I sent you alone. You two are very close, after all."
Rean"s mouth twitched. "Where the h.e.l.l do we look close?" Of course, he didn"t say that out loud. "T-Thank you, master. I will make good use of it..." In the end, he couldn"t force himself to refuse his "master"s" goodwill.
