chapter-587
These two days, Sam spent in the house as he continuously circulated energy in his body with ripple style. The Hot spring village's specialty is that almost every house has a hot spring and it was a spring that gets the heat from the nearby volcanic region.
And due to the presence of many minerals, they are extremely helpful for relieving body fatigue.
For these two days, Sam sat in the spring and practiced the technique and the water rippled.
Sam wanted to test the control of his skill on an obvious entity that he can access easily. He tried this on the hot spring and he used it on both the pool of water and the steam that is arousing from it.
The ripple style is as tough as the void style. At least, he got a detailed view of the practical application of the void style and he even saw the energy circulation in action fighting against it.Now even though, the methods and techniques are imprinted in his mind, he was still missing something.
So, he is trying to use his control to create the ripples in the pool as he wanted.
After two days of practice, there is little progress, but he didn't give up. He moved along with Buck and both of them walked to the entrance of the Volcanic region.
Soon, they are walking on the volcanic rocks and Sam could even feel the flowing magma underneath.
He didn't know if the Magma lotus will be present in this area, but he felt like this is the only place that could make it possible for the herb to grow.
When they reached the entrance, there are already many people standing there.
They went through the crowd and looked at the entrance.In front of them is a large steep hill and there is a cave at the bottom.
Six Nagas are sitting in six different places. All six of them are Nagas from six different empires. Recently, from the smuggler, Sam has learned a lot about the empires of this planet. There are six major Empires that stand above the rest of the empires.
And Mov is one of them along with the Rubrum. Both of them are tied at fourth place. While the Flavos is in fifth place. There are three empires above them
This is a joint event from the six nations, even though the primary host is the Flavos empire.
At this moment, the teams of the six empires are entering the cave one by one and after a few minutes, after they left, two sentries stood at the entrance and started collecting the toll for entry. Each Nascent stage cultivator should pay two million spirit stones and each Pre-transcendent stage cultivator should pay five million.
There are around a thousand nascent stage cultivators and three to four hundred Pre-transcendent stage cultivators going. This is a massive income for even the six empires. They are going make a fortune.
Sam paid his toll and left the place. Buck is not going in, he walked away from the place after Sam entered.
Sam started walking through the tunnel and after walking a few meters, the entrance is glowing red.
The cultivators seemed to have slowed down a bit.
They are all sweating. Even the fire elemental users are having a hard time moving, but not as bad as the others though.
As Sam stood there and watched, he felt like someone is watching him and turned around. A young man walked through the entrance with a smile.
He is someone Sam recognized. He is none other than Akhil. The player from the Beast faction.
"Fancy seeing the Black horse here. Is it really okay for you to just come out and openly finish the task? Especially when eleven elites are after your tail."
"Seems like you forgot the first Palace of inheritance already."
When Sam said this, Akhil almost choked and replied with faint embarrassment.
"We are not the same. Do you think it would be as easy as that time? All we have to do is stop you from doing tasks. Even if we have to fight, I don't think you can certainly win. After all, I am improving."
"And what do you think I am doing? From the first palace of inheritance till the second one, I started a business, became a refugee, waged a war, and even butt heads with a Major power and still I kicked your ass in the second palace of inheritance when you have three people supporting you and all four of you surrounding me.
And still, you think you have a chance now?"
With that Sam left with a smile. Akhil was stunned at the spot for a second before his face turned red and became embarrassed as he yelled at Sam.]
"This time, I will definitely defeat you."
As he said he also started walking beside Sam. And both of them entered the red zone.
They could feel the extreme heat that is being created by the extreme fire elemental energy.
At the start of the walk, there is not much effect on both of them as they walked pretty simply. But after some time, the heat increased too much and Akhil started sweating. After all, he is a warrior and he is not of the fire element. He took out a pill and swallowed it and his skin started emitting icy fog.
But even then, at halfway point, he started sweating. Sam is still walking normally. All he is feeling is the pressure. Not the heat. The heat effect on him is almost negated by the Golden Crow bloodline. After all, there are few types of flames that could contend against the golden crow's flames.
As they walked, all Sam did is look at others who are falling one after another.
By the time, they reached the end, only half of the original group made it. Half of the people spent their money in vain.
As soon as they exited most people are feeling tired and took a rest.
Sam barely broke any sweat, which surprised him. From what he observed in the path, the resistance offered by the path is not for the strength of the person, rather the quality of their cultivation.
The fire element is of an extremely higher grade, but its grade is not higher than that of Golden crow that is why Sam not only felt any heat, but almost all the pressure was negated. As for the pressure he faced, it is mostly due to cultivation.
These are the main advantages of his cultivation technique. Even though he has to spend more resources than any other cultivation, it is worth it.
He looked at Akhil who is a lot better than any other person and said.
"I advise you to not mess with me in this place. But if you are still so confident in stopping me, you can come and find me."
With that, Sam lunged and rank into the black rocky terrain.
The whole expanse of land they could see is full of volcanic rocks and there is nothing else.
They could see small cracks in the rocks and a light golden glow could be seen emitting smoke.
The place might be a rocky terrain, but there are many treasures in this area. A variety of metals, herbs, beasts are all available.
The land looks like blocks of rocks are thrown over. There is not much flat land at least not within the vicinity.
He could see many people walking in different directions and soon, he reached a small patch of flat land. It is so small that it could barely be used to play badminton. But it is still a better place to rest than the thorny rocks.
There he saw Yodha and the rest of the team.
One of them is holding a scroll and it seemed to be some kind of map and discussing something.
He felt lucky to encounter them this early. He wanted to find a lava stream. No matter how small it is. This large area of volcanic region definitely had to have some streams and he came here for that. As for other treasures, he would try to take them if they are on his way, or he wouldn't care about them.
So, he wanted to ask Yodha if he can point out a direction to find a stream, but before he could take a step back, one of the team members looked at him and yelled.
"Stay there, this is Mov empire's team and currently this area is ours, get lost."
He said with some unbridled arrogance. Sam didn't show any expression though, he just looked at Yodha and called for him.
"I need to talk to you."
Yodha looked at the rest and said.
"He is a friend of mine. He didn't come for you guys." But when he was about to take a step forward, the one who is holding the map stopped Yodha and said to Sam.
"What do you need to talk to him?"
Sam frowned and said.
"Why do you need to know?"
"If you are not going to say anything, then I am not going to allow you guys to talk privately. You can talk here or you can get lost."
"And why should he do that?"
This time, it is Yodha who asked the question and his voice is a tad bit colder even in that heated environment, the leader who stopped him didn't dare to meet his cold eyes, but after a second he recovered his bearing and said.
"I heard that he is your business partner, what if you share our team's plans with him? Then wouldn't our whole trip be leaked? What if the prince or the other people get attacked?"
"You better mind your tongue. Or there is a great chance that it could be cut off. He is a war hero and you should treat him with the respect he deserves."
Yodha became enraged and the leader shuddered. Everyone knows how unreasonable Yodha could be, but for some reason, the leader who wouldn't dare to meet an eye with him is openly going against him. This is a surprise for everyone on the team.
But they still felt like it is not their leader's fault and they couldn't blame him. As for Yodha, they wouldn't dare, so they directed their ire at Sam.
