System Of Endless Cultivation

Leon smiled bitterly and shook his head. Turning to Mira, he gently tapped her forehead and said, "If it weren't for Eryx, I would never have considered doing something like this. But since he's a Xylaris, even if he isn't connected to that person, the mere fact that his blood is so alluring to us proves he's extraordinary. Didn't you notice? When we stood before him, he felt like a delicacy in our minds. Our instincts were screaming at us to drink his blood on the spot."

Mira nodded, acknowledging the truth in his words. Then she asked, "But... what does this have to do with inviting him and that girl to explore the Hundred Beasts' Cave and search for Dragon Rain Herbs?"

"Mira, you don't understand. Let me tell you, that Eryx person might be only a Qi Refining Realm warrior, he is definitely not simple. Moreover, he can be useful in dealing with 'that' formation." Leon smiled mysteriously.

Mira was stunned, then shook her head, saying, "Leon, these people already hate us enough. Why do you want to use Eryx? Also, that girl accompanying him was a Core Formation Realm warrior just like us. Do you truly believe we could take advantage of them just because we want to?"

"Yes, she is a Core Formation Realm warrior, but she's only one person. A Core Formation Realm warrior and a Qi Refinement Realm warrior pose no threat to us. As for using Eryx... you're mistaken. While I do want his help in dealing with 'that' formation, as long as he survives, I won't hesitate to share the Dragon Rain Herbs with him. I won't betray him or that girl if they decide to team up with us to explore the Hundred Beasts' Cave. In fact, if we encounter danger, I won't hesitate to help them. Additionally, while working on the formation, we can pay extra attention to his safety. This way, his chances of survival would increase significantly."

"If that's the case, then it's fine." In the end, Mira found no flaw in his reasoning and nodded in agreement.

Lin Ning'er led Eryx out of the city, and only then did she start speaking.

"Eryx, tell me honestly. Do you really not have any relation with those people?"

Obviously, she was still suspicious.

Eryx immediately shook his head in denial. "I swear, this is the first time I saw them. I don't even know why everyone looking at them with disgusted expression, including you."

Lin Ning'er heaved a sigh of relief and then answered, "As you know, after the sky shattered, alien life forms from countless worlds descended upon our world, seizing unclaimed lands and establishing their forces. They were invaders, so there was bound to be conflicts between them and us."

"Among the invaders, some arrived with good intentions, while others came with malicious purposes. Thunder Star World was one of those who came with malicious purposes."

She explained in detail and only then Eryx got to know a few pieces of history.

It turned out that when people from Thunder Star World descended, they immediately started massacring natives of this world at sight. They had advanced weapons unknown to this world. Some of those weapons were so powerful that even Golden Core Realm warriors were helpless against them.

Fortunately, this world is not weak at all. There are countless strong warriors everywhere. When Golden Core Realm warriors were helpless, Spirit Origin Realm warriors stepped forth and solved the crisis.

At that time, the people from Thunder Star World came forward with a white flag, wanting to make peace.

After a few days of consideration, those Spirit Origin Realm warriors invited a few Mystic Origin Realm warriors who signed a peace treaty with the governing forces of Thunder Star World.

However, not long after the peace treaty was signed, the people of Thunder Star World again started showing their true colors. They did not start massacring like before, but they didn't hesitate to rob us of our resources in the name of understanding this world's rules. Taking the excuse of learning more about cultivation, they robbed and stole cultivation methods and skills from weaker forces, strengthening their own.

They did many such despicable acts, which disgusted people.

If not for the fact that they were bold enough to lay their hands on Red Dragon Tower, Blue Dragon Tower, and Green Dragon Tower, they would have continued to exploit and take advantage of weaker forces without consequence.

They were new to this world and didn't know anything about the Red, Blue, and Green Dragon Towers. They thought these towers were another three weaker forces, thus trying to rob them.

However, these towers were unlike other forces. Targeting these powerful and respected organizations was the most disastrous choice they had made. The three towers immediately retaliated, putting an end to the Thunder Star World's schemes in no time.

While doing so, the three towers, in rage, decided to completely wipe out every individual from the Thunder Star World.

If not for the intervention of other worlds' forces and the fact that the governing forces of Thunder Star World came crying and begging to spare them, they would not be present in this world today.

Anyway, the way they acted in the past completely disgusted everyone in the empire. From that day onward, no force wanted to work with Thunder Star World. Everyone always stood against them, which in turn caused massive problems for the people of Thunder Star World. Even their survival in this world became somewhat difficult.

Nevertheless, they not only survived but also grew stronger. Now, they even have several Saint Origin Realm warriors among their people. However, they have come to understand that our world is not to be underestimated and that the depth of our world is beyond their imagination. As a result, they have never attempted to cause trouble again.

Although Lin Ning'er didn't explain in extreme detail, Eryx still understood the crux of this matter. As it turns out, the way they acted thousands of years ago left behind a shadow in the hearts of people, and it has been down from generation to generation. Even to this day, natives of this world still hate people from Thunder Star World and are disgusted by them.

After understanding everything, Eryx presented a second question, asking, "Umm... What is this Hundred Beasts' Cave? Is it really dangerous?"

"The Hundred Beasts' Cave is a dangerous place filled with many dangers. It is like a huge, dark maze inside a mountain, where a hundred ancient beasts used to live and protect their territory. However, after their death, this place became the habitat of many demonic beasts. The Hundred Beasts' Cave is also known to have rare treasures and special plants, just like the Dragon Rain Herb, hidden deep inside. However, it is very risky to go there because the beasts are fierce, and the cave itself is full of traps and unknown dangers. In fact, at several places, you can find trap formations, killing formations, and more. These formations were laid by those ancient beasts."

"Rumor has it that among the hundred ancient beasts, the top ten possessed their own secret space. These top ten ancient creatures don't like to be referred to as 'beasts'. For example, dragons and phoenixes; they prefer to be called by their true species name rather than 'beast'."

"Anyways, the Hundred Beasts' Cave of today is risky and perilous due to all sorts of traps laid by the original hundred ancient beasts, demonic beasts, and other such dangers. Below Golden Core Realm, going there would be no different from throwing our lives right inside the gate of hell. Even Golden Core Realm warriors may not survive after entering the Hundred Beasts' Cave. Only Spirit Origin Realm warriors could guarantee absolute safety."

"Nevertheless, nothing inside could attract the interest of Spirit Origin Realm warriors, so they never venture inside. Of course, if the ten hidden spaces of the top ten ancient beasts are discovered, not to mention Spirit Origin Realm warriors, at that time, even Mystic Origin Realm and Saint Origin Realm warriors would go crazy to enter. Unfortunately, even after several millennia, no one had ever found those hidden spaces."

Lin Ning'er explained in detail about the Hundred Beasts' Cave.

Eryx nodded in understanding. Simultaneously, he became quite curious about the original hundred ancient beasts, mainly the top ten ancient beasts, Dragon and Phoenix being only two of them.

After that, Eryx asked a few more questions. Just like that, they returned to they returned to the Silver Moon Sect.

Upon climbing the mountain, Lin Ning'er threw a small bag at Eryx, saying: "You can use them for your cultivation. There are fifteen Qi Refining Pills and one Foundation Building Pill. You can take Qi Refining Pills for your cultivation. Once you reach the peak of the Qi Refinement Realm, you can swallow the Foundation Building Pill. This pill will help you establish a strong foundation for future cultivation. Consider these pills a thank-you gift for accompanying me to the city."

Eryx was startled. Before he could come back to his senses, Lin Ning'er had already left.
