Chapter 158 - The Session Ended!
🕑 Added 2025-05-22 19:02:45 +0000 UTCAt the cultivation ground of the Maker Mansion, Hengsheng was sitting with closed eyes, cultivating in his usual spot.
He had been in this position for almost a month since he started the cultivation session. During this time, his Fourth Gate had already stabilized, and he could finally put all of his effort into advancing his cultivation realm.
Around him was a pile of spirit stones and dust that had accumulated and become like sand; this spirit stone dust was from the spirit stones that had exhausted all their spiritual qi.
One after another, the stones were continuously turned into dust by Hengsheng's ridiculous Spiritual Qi absorption rate, and with the power of Origin Energy, new spirit stones emerged from the ground to replenish the place of the used ones.
This unlimited supply of spirit stones and the ideal cultivation environment provided by the Endless Wealth Peak enabled him to cultivate like a perpetual cultivating machine.
The matter of resources and other worries never disturbed his mind during his cultivation session, allowing it to proceed smoothly and without interruptions.
However, the peaceful cultivation session did not last forever.
After the month passed, eventually, something came to disrupt this cultivation machine.
Ding!
[The Spiritual Power Recovery Period Ended]
—Your Spiritual Power has returned to normal.
[Spiritual Power ×1 » ×96]
[The Absolute Cultivator Mode is now available]
After he was alerted by the system message during the session, Hengsheng began to slow down his cultivation process and stopped absorbing the spirit stones, refining the remaining wisp of the spirit stones’ Spiritual Qi that still lingered within him.
When he was done, his cultivation session was officially over.
Hengsheng slowly opened his eyes, then he observed his progress with Divine Sense.
"All checked," Hengsheng thought after confirming there was nothing wrong with his cultivation realm despite having a new Spirit Foundation.
At first, he was afraid that his new Spirit Foundation would not be compatible with the Path of Dao Attainment Cultivation System, but after a month of cultivation, no visible problems had been spotted yet.
It was normal for Hengsheng to be concerned about this matter, since it was a decisive factor in his future cultivation.
After all, a Spirit Foundation had certain cultivation systems it was compatible with—and others it was not.
Like in the case of a Spirit Root, which could cultivate using the Immortal Ascension Cultivation System—a system that Bi Gou had cultivated in the life simulated world—but it could not cultivate a system designed for a Spirit Core, like his current cultivation system, because it was too different right from the first cultivation realm.
However, the Spirit Ring System, which has a Spirit Core as its base, seems to be compatible with the Path of Dao Attainment Cultivation System without problems, which means he doesn't have to create a new cultivation system to support it.
"Luckily, it saves me time," Hengsheng murmured.
Hengsheng extended his Divine Sense throughout Endless Wealth Mountain to find Yunsu.
He found her hanging out with her underlings within the Demon Beast sector of the mountain. When he was about to reach out to the cat, she seemed to have already noticed his Divine Sense.
Yunsu's big, feline eyes gazed at the sky, sensing her human presence. She immediately knew that her human had woken up from his cultivation session.
Her tail slammed the ground as a sign to her underlings to step back.
The dozen demon beasts cowardly stepped backward, not knowing why the queen had suddenly moved.
"Meow… (I have matters to attend to)," Yunsu meowed, speaking in beast language to her underlings before disappearing from her spot, going to the top of the mountain.
When the demon beasts saw the cat gone, they began cheering, temporarily freed from the demon cat’s tyranny that had forced them to serve!
Hengsheng caught Yunsu in his arms and played with her.
"Hiss!" Yunsu hissed when he played too much.
"Alright," Hengsheng said, putting her down before starting to question her progress.
"How did your training go? Are you still feeling urged by the Divine Bloodline scent?" Hengsheng asked.
During his cultivation session, Yunsu had also been undergoing a training session he had assigned her—to train her to control the urge brought on by her Trait to consume powerful bloodlines.
This was important training, since it could become a weakness if she acted irrationally whenever she sensed a powerful bloodline—the enemy could use this against her.
"Meow…" Yunsu said, indicating she was trying, but still couldn’t fully control the urge.
"That’s alright. Train harder next time. When you succeed in gaining control over the urge, I’ll bring the woman with the Divine Beast Bloodline to you. Got it?" Hengsheng said.
"Meow…" Yunsu replied, her mouth watering. She remembered the scent of the True Divine Beast Bloodline—she wanted to eat that woman whole!
Seeing a hungry beast aura emerge from the cat, Hengsheng shook her to bring her back to her senses.
"Meow? (What just happened?)" Yunsu cried in confusion.
Hengsheng shook his head as he could not help.
The cat is out of control!
"Did you have anything else to do before we left?" Hengsheng asked the cat.
"Meow," Yunsu cried and shook her head, indicating no, and gesturing that she was ready.
"Then we will go now," Hengsheng said as he picked her up, placed her in his arms, and used his Dimensional Shift.
In the blink of an eye, one human and one cat disappeared from the Endless Wealth Peak.
On Misty Crescent Island, one of the islands within the chain belonging to the Southern Sea Kingdom.
Lan Xiaorong sat on a chair, hiding his face in the dark corner of a room, listening to the intelligence report prepared by the endless intelligence department (EID) agent, a spy stationed on the island.
"From all this information, my team concludes that the Hai clan of Great Sea Island and 25 other clans under their influence are the ones who paid the pirates to target our ship," an EID agent said solemnly.
Lan Xiaorong nodded as he listened to the summary. The enemy was bigger than expected—it was more than half of the noble clans of this kingdom secretly working against them.
If the Xiyuan dynasty didn’t have the Endless Wealth Company backing them, they would be eliminated in no time.
Lan Xiaorong raised his hand, and then a space ring appeared. He handed it to an EID agent.
The EID agent received the space ring, and his Divine Sense quickly scanned the contents within.
His solemn expression immediately turned blissful.
He used to be a loose cultivator; he did not trust the clan, sect, or dynasty, since these factions likely treated someone like him as disposable, never gave anything in return.
But the Endless Wealth Company was different—they paid him, and paid him a lot!
The treasures within the ring were numerous. Even if he split it equally with his assigned team, there was still more than enough for him to cultivate for a decade!
"This is a bonus. Go share it with your team as you please," Lan Xiaorong said, gesturing for the EID agent to leave.
The EID agent heard what Lan Xiaorong said, and a thought of seizing all the treasure for himself arose in his mind before he shook it off, fearing that this might be a test.
The EID agent bowed to Lan Xiaorong and left the room.
"What a generous," the man's voice echoed in the room.
Lan Xiaorong was startled by the voice that echoed in the room where only he should have been, but he immediately recognized the voice's owner.
"This is the time?" Lan Xiaorong asked, his voice steady as he recalled the appointment they had made a month ago.
"Yes, are you ready?" Hengsheng spoke as he stepped out from another dark corner, a cat nestled lazily in his arms.
"Yes. I have my people on standby, ready to move at a moment's notice. Will you pick them up now?" Lan Xiaorong asked.
"No," Hengsheng replied flatly.
"They'll only get in the way while we deal with the Pirate King and his crew. I'll bring them in once the place is cleared."
"So, we go now?" Lan Xiaorong asked. He felt things were rushed, but he was also excited, knowing he was about to annihilate a batch of wicked criminals who had annoyed him for quite a while.
"Yes. Before that, this is the plan: I will keep the Pirate King away while you get rid of his vice captain and the crew. Be careful—the vice captain is at the peak True Body Realm. Got it?" Hengsheng said.
Lan Xiaorong nodded in understanding. He was strong—much stronger compared to cultivators from the lower realms—but fighting someone at the peak True Body Realm while he had just reached the peak of the First Gate was a challenge.
"Then draw your swords. We will fight immediately after crossing the space," Hengsheng said as he activated the Dimensional Shift again, enveloping them all.
Lan Xiaorong was shocked by how rushed Hengsheng was.
He quickly drew his sword just before being enveloped by the purple vortex, and the next moment, he appeared in an unknown place surrounded by a thousand filthy pirates.
