"You have been granted a tutoring session with one of the elder"s Avatar.""Please don"t log out and wait as he is currently on his way."
His pupils constricted when his eyes fell on the message, and he swallowed his saliva while thinking. "A battle league elder!?", he couldn"t help but try to imagine those mysterious figures that stood at the top of battle league"s corporation.
The painting he had seen in New Casablanca"s battle center appeared in his mind, and his eyes glowed as he couldn"t help but feel antic.i.p.ation as he was going to meet an incredibly strong figure. Someone who stood on top of the universal food chain; how strong was he compared to his brother Anzar.
Due to Anzar not showcasing his strength in a special way, Fell had quite the trouble when it came to be judging the blue haired man"s strength. And that wasn"t surprising in any way as Anzar was one of Earth"s strongest cultivators; if he didn"t want other cultivators to sense his cultivation base, no one would pa.s.s through his veil. Unless one used a mystic soul-based technique, then that was nearly impossible to gauge his true cultivation base.
That"s not even taking into account the fact that Fell hadn"t started his cultivation path when Anzar was teaching him. He couldn"t help but think about the days they pa.s.sed together, and that warmed his heart and washed away part of the bitterness he was feeling.
Time pa.s.sed as his mind was filled with random thoughts about cultivation. At some point, he sat on the red soil under his feet and closed his eyes as he began practicing the drawing of the spatial seal.
The spatial scripture had played a significant part in his fight against the Virtual Immortal. Although a big part of his gamble was due to the white clothed youth"s pa.s.sivity, he couldn"t help but think that the mysterious technique could turn into one of his greatest a.s.sets if trained correctly. As his mind revolved around the technique, he thought about a technique he had looted in the beginning of the journey.
When raiding Darksun gang"s general quarters, he had acquired several items in their treasury. And one of them was the lighting based technique Vicious Zhang had used during their fight. He could still remember the lighting"s destructive nature that nearly fried him to death, and as he compared it with Little Gold"s lightning. He couldn"t help but find them similar in nature.
As that thought appeared in his mind, he slapped himself in the face as an idea popped in his mind.
"Little Gold"s egg appeared right after my fight against Vicious Zhang!", his mind boomed from the discovery. Fell couldn"t help but feel ashamed for not having noticed before. The two events nearly happened one after the other, and it took him this much time to link them before.
If it weren"t for the fact that an elder was currently coming to tutor him, he would have logged out directly to check the technique"s contents as it might help him learn more about Little Gold, but he stopped himself as he had to focus on the priorities at hand. Although he was excited about learning more about Little Gold as it had been a big mystery for him, he wasn"t sure if he could comprehend the manual"s contents yet.
Thus he decided to contain his excitement and continued waiting for the elders" arrival as the opportunity couldn"t be pushed to a later date.
An hour pa.s.sed where Fell stayed in the same position on the ground. He regulated his breathing and calmed his heart and mind as he knew that the tutoring from the elder was a golden opportunity that shouldn"t be wasted. If he happened to lose track of whatever he was going to be taught, then he would regret for the rest of his life, and unfortunately, there was no pill that dealt with regret.
Thus he used the free time to refine his mind, and before long, he lost track of his surroundings due to retracting all of his senses inwardly.
When he reopened his eyes, he found a giant pair of green eyes gaze at him with clear interest, his sight focused after a split second, and he saw the man in front of him. The man was tall and sprouted a head filled with silvery hair, long and fine, that dropped on broad shoulders that seemed to capable of shouldering the world. His clothing was odd and revealed several parts of his body, and it wasn"t any type of physique but one that released a beastly yet refined aura.
The moment he saw the man, he was sure that his appearance was his own and wasn"t a creation of the game"s system. It was an odd sensation that couldn"t be brushed by rational thought and was closer to an answer given by Fell"s instinct.
Fell got up from his cross-legged position on the red soil and bowed toward the green eyed man. The moment he raised his torso from the polite bow, he noticed that his surroundings had changed completely as he now stood on top of a rock. The ground"s surface was rough and rugged, and a grey and dim colored line showed the sediment contained in the bare environment.
As he was checking his surroundings, he raised his head only to be shaken by the view that entered his eyes. Numerous stars entered his sight, and a gigantic ball of flame took away most of his attention. His heart skipped a beat in his chest, and his mouth opened from the surprising view; the giant piece of rock they were standing on was piercing through s.p.a.ce as it traveled through the void.
"Incredible…", he exclaimed as he forgot about the nearby elder. He turned around as he lost himself in the cosmic scenery, and only after a minute pa.s.sed that he managed to regain his calm and stopped his deed.
