When Jen was thinking all the aspects, two custodians took two different ways to further explore this underground Vale. The one who told about this mountain was very excited, he took the lead to find the herb first, and collect glory and praises from the master.
Two of them chose another direction, they better find the herb as soon as possible and leave this underground Vale else the white smoke would definitely bring some trauma to them if not this fellow.
Jen was sitting and cultivating, this place was good for cleansing impurities, she was using the warmth of this place to cleans the acmes pairs along with the essence form.
This was one of the rare places which could be called treasure for Cultivators.
All of her legend level acmes pairs were filled with the essence during her consistent Cultivation routine, she made it necessary for her as breathing.
This att.i.tude was necessary if Jen wanted to partic.i.p.ate in the Supreme Existence Trials, there was long way ahead, seven of huge levels were ahead of her to reach the Golden Legend Realm, it won"t be easy.
The second problem has already been solved, Monarda was ready to become her Escort Sentient in future, that means she don"t need to visit Macabre Dwelling to tame some powerful beast.
The only problem was her Cultivation level, and she was sure with present advancement, she could make it possible.
Her wandering was also important for few aspects, she was able to get familiar with the internal matters of the Celestial Sphere and also many experts were willing to support the future defender and they would work for the present defender as well so that this sphere could remain safe from the invasion of upper sphere.
The Core Experts were one of the example, they were not supporting present defender before but as they were impressed from Jen they promised to make up for their mistakes.
Few elders became her acquainted in this journey, moreover she was able to settle some grave internal matters of of few Manias timely, it increased her experience and let her learn the ways of the world.
There were few things which she hid from her grandfather and she was sure in near future she would definitely tell everything to him, for now if she told about Nianru or the entire incident then Xuan Rong would be more worried about her safety, he has already bigger burden on his shoulders to take care the external security of the sphere.
The Supreme Existence Trials would also bring new challenges for the present Defender, it was a grave question how he would be able to persuade all the pillars of the sphere of they came to know the ident.i.ty of the next Defender? Would they still accept it?
Jen would definitely fight those battles for her grandfather but what about others, were they equally honest with the future of sphere, would they finally show up how biased they were or they would choose to keep silence?
Jen don"t know that Xuan Rong thought about these questions almost everyday and he was looking some genius of the Celestial Sphere who happened to learn the strongest attribute so that he could keep his grandchild away from this mess but it was pity that he could not find anyone until now.
He was grand old man who thought that his grandchild was a girl and she might not be able to face the cruel ways of the world, he stoned his heart and accepted her request to wander in the Celestial Sphere but he most of the time found chance to look up her present place and advancement in the cultivation.
Why he sent her back in the dark region despite knowing the threat because he wanted to test her capability and caliber whether she could stand against threats and unseen dangers, and what would be her choice after she came to know who were hunters? Would she look for her grandfather in fear of hunters or she would choose to face them?
He was testing how far she could sustain hard circ.u.mstances, and on what level she would accept defeat and how? This was all necessary for him to know about her, it was matter of his grandchild, he cannot throw her in front of forest wolves when she has only capability to fight against pet sheep.
He knew she was being hard head and stiffened herself just to prove her worth but he was a grandfather, and moreover she has already showed her worth in the Intermediate Battles as well as winning the favor of Core Experts.
The two custodians met with number of herbs in the depth of the mountain but none matched the description told by their fellow.
They continue to shove the vines away with their collaborative effort.
The custodian who was talkative and wanted to find the herb before others met with the dead end on the rock and could not find way further, he got disappointed and came back in search of different direction after taking a glance toward the master who was sitting at the rock and probably cultivating.
Jen opened her eyes as it was some time when the custodians went to search, three custodians were standing to guard the entrance of the underground Vale.
The two custodians who were diligently searching got disappointed when they saw the dry vines at the far corner.
"It seemed we might not be able to find it," a custodian shook his entire smoky body.
"Wait, the last vines are yet to be shuffled," his fellow voiced with hope.
"Hah, I am sure it would bring another disappointment," the smoky creature seemed dejected and his fellow put effort to shuffle the dry vines.
There they found the herb but at the same time, the talkative custodian appeared there and as soon as he saw the herbs, started shouting, "I found it, I found it," Jen who was following behind heard too and came.
The two custodians who actually found it were rolling their eyes, they were doing the hard work and this one half tail came to s.n.a.t.c.h the credit.
