Vampire's Slice Of Life
chapter-457-30041322

After a pleasant chat with his wives, Lith sat down to meditate and look at his immortal core.

He was seated on the roof of the castle, basking in the silver glow from the moon and enjoying the dark atmosphere of Nightingale.

Lith closed his eyes as he sat in a lotus position and sent his senses toward his core.

Lith's vision changed from dark to suddenly feeling as if he was thrown into space, getting to look at the planets orbiting around the sun.

Except, the difference was that Lith saw a big blue world around which there were twelve colorful planets and no one was moving, they were all still.

The big blue world was Lith's main core, taking the blue color from the vast amount of water present in it.

The colorful planets around were none other than the elemental energy cores.

These cores were connected to the main core via bridges made by the respective elemental energy. For instance, the water elemental core had a blue bridge connecting the blue Water core to the main core.

Lith tried to see what was so special about these elemental energy cores but found nothing over there, other than extremely potent elemental energies being present in their purest form.

The twelve cores nourished the main core and in the main core, as Lith went and saw things, everything was similar to his own world.

There were grasslands, mountains, snow, deserts, and much more.

Life wasn't primitive anymore and there were a lot of species of plants. Animals weren't present yet and the only creatures that appeared in Lith's core were some primitive insects, that's about it for life.

Lith was excited to see some beasts or humans be birthed in this core. It was a pity that no lifeforms were born inside. He decided to enter his core in person and not just check it using his spiritual sense.

Lith stood up and extended his hand out. Pointing his finger somewhere on the ground, Lith said calmly,

"Drop."

A bright light shone from Lith's abdomen and the core came out. It fixed itself on the spot, right where Lith's finger pointed. As the core affixed itself, it let out a loud rumble and then everything became silent once again.

Lith had vanished from his spot and he was pulled inside his core.

The core became invisible after a few seconds. It seemed as if there was no one present here in this place.

The rumbling that was generated by the core was heard by everyone in the castle.

Everyone in this castle was a powerful immortal being. Lith's actions of placing his core outside did not go unnoticed. But nobody had any exaggerated reaction as it was a normal thing for immortals to place their cores outside.

Although it would result in their deaths if someone found their core and shattered it, the chances of such a thing happening were pretty low unless one's rank differed by a very high degree.

Lith didn't need to worry about this happening to him. He was at home and there wasn't any place safer than Nightingale in this world.

Lith appeared inside his core and looked around, He found himself in some grassy plains. He then looked up and saw a sun to be present there. This world felt too similar to his previous one which was Earth. The size and everything else was also similar.

Lith's current world, which is the magic one, was pretty abnormal. There were gigantic trees and weird monsters. The grassy plains had grass twice the size of humans and many other anomalies.

But in this world, it was really normal.

Lith walked around and saw nothing but grass for a while. He then came across mountains and as he moved, he saw various other normal things everywhere.

He then sat down in one patch of the grassy plains and meditated to sense other things in his core.

The first thing Lith noticed by doing so was the density of the elemental energy here.

As Lith was in the grassy plains, he sensed the Wind elemental energy to be more followed by Earth. As he moved towards the mountains, the Earth's elemental energy was more.

In such a way, the density of elemental energies was different in different places.

But one thing Lith noticed when he checked the overall density of elemental energies, the one in the least amount was Life, Light, Death, Time, Lightning, and Wind.

Being in the grassy plains, Lith surely found more Wind elemental energy, but overall, it was really low.

Lith finally understood that his core was also able to tell about what areas he would need to work on and have more attainments in.

Life(animal, not plants) was still primitive and there weren't any humans or beasts in his core because Lith's Life elemental energy attainment was low.

Time in his core was moving slowly, almost similar to his current world because Lith's Time attainment level was low.

From what Lith knew, usually, the ones who had Time affinity, their cores would be two to three times faster than the real world. Meaning, if one day passed in the real world, ten to twenty days would pass in the core.

This was something that could make a strong person even stronger.

Usually, people have the rate of time in their cores almost the same as the outside world or simply two or three times faster. That was the world's average.

But the Time-affiliated immortals would have their rates anywhere from five to eight times faster.

However, some people had their core times even faster and they were the Time path immortals.

These immortals, although had other affinities other than Time, they solely cultivated in the Time element, and on average, a Time path immortal had the time of their core range anywhere from ten to fifteen times faster.

It may not look too big of a difference from a Time-affiliated immortal but in the long term, it varied greatly.

A thousand years in the normal world would equal five thousand years for a Time-affiliated immortal but it would be a whopping ten thousand to fifteen thousand years for a Time path immortal.

Ten thousand years would equal fifty thousand years of a Time-affiliated immortal but for a Time path immortal, it would be anywhere from a hundred thousand to a hundred and fifty thousand.

Rising in ranks through the Time element was hard for everyone. So not many chose this path. They would work on the Time element if they had the affinity, but not many would become Time path immortals.

There was only one person throughout history who was known to rise to Supreme Rank through the Time path. It was none other than the current Dragon Emperor Dagassi.

Having Time affinity was rare in itself and due to the serious lack of resources in the Time element, not many walked the Time path.

Dagassi was a brave and courageous dragon and he took the risk to walk the Time path. Eventually, all things fell into place and he became the Supreme Rank of the dragons and replaced the previous dragon supreme.

The previous dragon supreme went into seclusion after Dagassi took the throne and was never heard from again.

Lith, who was sitting and thinking about these things, realized that it would be difficult to raise his Time attainment.

But thankfully, it won't be too difficult as he didn't have to fight too much for resources. He had everything with him in the castle and he could simply use them to cultivate further and rise in ranks.

Lith had to urgently get stronger and although he had the thought of becoming rich and doing business for the next nineteen years, he didn't forget his main goal, which was to find the one who caused him into such a bad state in the Astral World and kill it.

Lith's current goals were to become rich, become strong, and provide all the love and care he could to his wives.

He had to utilize each day to its fullest and he couldn't simply slack off.

Slacking would mean he would be behind schedule for a lot of things and much other stuff could get compromised as well.

If he slacked on cultivation, he wouldn't get stronger fast and if he only cultivated, he would not be able to give time to his wives, which would be really bad and unfair to them.

Thus, Lith had to manage his time well and not slack off. He also had his two friends whom he had to meet and give time as well.

Lith soon mentally made a priority list and the things he needed to do.

The priority list went as:

– Spend time with wives

– Become strong

– Become rich

– Other things

Lith kept his priority list as simple as he could and didn't put too much stuff into it.

He had other things to do as well such as modify the Ying Yang Vīrya Sutra and also give some care to his maids and butlers and also spend time with his friends.

But every other thing was included in the last point in his priority list and Lith was sure that he would be able to manage it well.

After thinking of such things, Lith went back to checking his core and soon he found out…
