East Meet West

300- Millennial Meteor Ruby

After warning all the bandits, just in case Orochi still requested June to cast a defensive layer around Eliza Rook.

Done with all this, June couldn’t help but say coldly,

“I didn’t know that you had mental issues. What's with the task you gave to those bandits to punish Alex Xavier? Why not simply kill him and be done with it, why go to such disgusting levels.”

Hearing this Orochi laughed and replied,

“Aunt June, I just did what I would do to any of my enemies.”

“According to me, enemies should never be killed. Especially those enemies that have seriously angered me or tried to harm me or my loved ones in any way. Because simply killing them, doesn’t make them regret their actions. I want them to regret their actions and wish for the death as soon as possible.”

“I want to make their life a living hell, but still, they won’t receive any kind of mercy. And the death is the biggest mercy to enemies.”

“My rule is simple, if I don’t offend you, it is already a good thing. But if you offend me, then I will seriously make you regret offending me.”

“Not to mention, you should also know that guy dared to insult you two and sent me the head of an innocent woman in the auction. That has seriously angered me. So, I will now show him the same hell, that he showed to many women.”

Finished speaking, Orochi turned away and walked to the place where he arranged the Spiritual Qi gathering array.

The Spiritual qi gathering array was drawn on the ground, so when the array is activated, it will automatically create an invisible enclosed space to gather and store all the attracted Spiritual Qi.

So, when Orochi arrived at the location, he could barely see the enclosed space above the array; and inside the enclosed space, a small group of fog was collected.

And the fog is nothing but the Spiritual Qi gathered by array during the time when Orochi was away.

Looking at the pitiful amount of Spiritual Qi gathered, Orochi decided to wait and let the array collect the maximum amount of Spiritual Qi.

So, he distanced himself and sat down for his breakthrough to the Peak Demi-Human stage.

Taking out a bottle of Stalactite milk, Orochi started his cultivation.

.

After drinking more than 15,000 drops of Stalactite milk, finally, Orochi’s dantian reached its limit and transformed into a white Dantian.

Bang

‘ding’

‘Congratulations to the host for raising the Dantian Potential to Rank 108.’

‘ding’

‘Congratulations to the host for stepping into the Peak Demi-Human stage.’

‘ding’

‘ding’

As a series of notifications rang continuously, but Orochi ignored them as he was busy examining his dantian.

After the previous layer of golden shell cracked, it transformed into a huge golden stream of energy and spread out to every corner of his body. But instead of getting absorbed by his body, it stayed there motionless and became dormant. Just like the last time.

This is because, his stats have reached their limit, so his body and soul have been strengthened to the limit, at least it has reached its limit in the Mortal realm. So, unless he can break away from the shackles of the Mortal Realm, and step into the Transformation realm, this energy will continue to remain dormant.

Then Orochi looked at the Dantian’s specifications.

.

‘ding’

‘Current conversion ratio of World’s spiritual qi to Host’s spiritual qi is 108:1.’

‘The Dantian can store about 1,000,001 units of spiritual qi.’

.

‘The storage capacity has increased by so much...’

Looking at the system message, Orochi couldn’t help but sigh.

After a few more inspections, Orochi is very close to his next goal- Breakthrough to the Transformation realm.

But before his breakthrough, he still has a few things that need to be taken care of, and most of them are things that will help his breakthrough to the Transformation realm.

So, with a thought, Orochi took out 3 fist sized black stones and a Ruby like stone.

The 3 fist sized black stones were the Low grade Energy cores that Orochi chose from the treasury of the Lamia tribe as a reward given by Sheela.

And the Ruby like Stone was something that he obtained from the Storage ring of Jack Xavier’s wife, Eliza Rook. It is called the Millennial Meteor Ruby.

Similar to the Low grade energy cores, the Millennial Meteor Ruby is a stone that can store a large amount of Spiritual Qi and MP.

Unlike, the Low grade energy stones that still need to be refined and processed, such that only after many impurities are removed can they store MP; the Millennial Meteor Ruby can directly store his MP and does not require any kind of processing.

And surprisingly, the Millennial Meteor Ruby in his hands has a storage capacity of about 1 billion MP. And its grade has reached the ranks of an orange grade peak stone.

After inquiring some details about the Ruby from Eliza Rook, Orochi learned that the Millennial Meteor Ruby was something that she obtained from her mother. As for how her mother got it, Eliza Rook didn’t know.

Then Orochi took out a pair of milky white pearls, that were found in the treasury of Bandits.

According to the system’s analysis, after the Observation skill was used, this pair of pearls is produced by White Colored Oysters.

White Colored Oysters, are creatures found in deep water bodies like oceans and seas. They are similar to earth’s oysters and they possess the same innate ability to make pearls, except for the fact that the pearl made by White Colored Oysters are very special.

White Colored Oysters absorb energy from their surroundings and condense milky pearls, that can be considered their cores.

Unfortunately, unless the White Colored Oysters reach a high level, they cannot even produce basic intelligence. Hence, they act with their instincts and all their hard work gets collected by someone else.

It's like the metaphor- Making a wedding dress for others.

Meaning- Working hard, but the results and benefits are obtained by others.

The pearls produced by the White Colored Oysters are used in

arranging formation and arrays,

embedding them into weapons, armors, artifacts, and treasures so that they can play various auxiliary effects.

Not only the pearls, even the Millennial Meteor Ruby, is used in the above-mentioned areas.

And it is also similar to the low grade energy cores and Millennial Meteor Ruby. It can store a large amount of Spiritual Qi and MP. And each pearl can currently store about 100 million units of MP. Since he got two pearls from the bandit group’s treasury, he can store a total of 200 million units of MP in both the pearls.

All the 3 items, will help Orochi in his breakthrough to the Transformation realm.

Author’s announcement:

I know that many people will scold me after reading the previous chapter, but I wrote what I felt. And the reason why I had to write those lines is that I wanted to give a small reveal of Orochi’s character in this . And how his actions will be in the future chapters.

Honestly, I don’t like how women are treated as weak, especially in stories. They are strong for one chapter and weak throughout the story. And how they completely depend on Main Character. In simple words, they get nerfed and all the positive opinion on them gets destroyed.

Also, I don’t like how the Main Characters keep female villains alive till the scene where she gets killed by her own companion instead of the Main character. Like, from the beginning Main Character is attacked in various ways by a woman, but Main Character endures it all and when he goes for revenge, he would just slap her but not solve the problem completely. And the woman would go on cooperating with other villains and continue to harm Main Character, finally, she gets killed by someone else. Or in some works, this kind of woman joins Main Character’s harem.

Honestly, I love harem and s related to the harem genre, but many times I cannot bear those stories with the unreasonable ones, like the above mentioned.

Last but not least, I started writing because I wanted to create a work based on my idea and how ‘I wanted to show everyone the ideal in my style’. So, I can only apologize if you don’t like my work or feel offended.

I would simply say that this work is purely fictional and does not defame anyone. So, I can only request you guys to take it as a means of entertainment.

And enjoy reading.
