Chapter 1116: Thunder Phoenix Valley (1/2)
Sam sent the team and Arkiv to the city so that they could investigate. He also let the shadow mice go. Arkiv is mostly concerned about the rest of the players. He communicated with other players the most, every just thinks that he is sociable, but what they don't know is that he has a keen observation towards the behavior, habits and the nature of people.
That is the reason Sam wants to work with him. After all, he doesn't need any sociable people with him, his beasts are a better company than any other creature could give him.
Arkiv's special understanding towards the other players is the reason why Sam made an alliance with him and another reason is that they became a bit closer with time. He is the best person to see if there is any activity of other players nearby.
He could pick up subtle clues and track them back to their estimated locations and hiding spots.
Sam kept Night Ghost with him as they went towards the location that Old Beast told about.
Sam used the dimensional drifter to arrive at the valley so that he doesn't have to waste any time.
He arrived a hundred meters away from the valley, along with Night Ghost, as soon as they arrived, they were shocked. Because there are a lot of people at the mouth of the valley, Sam was worried that they would have been noticed, but from the looks of it, no one paid any heed.
Sam and Night Ghost slipped from the spot and took a high vantage point nearby and looked at the valley only to feel another surprise. Inside the valley, there is a large skeleton.
It is the skeleton of the Thunder Phoenix. Sam didn't expect that something like this to be present here. Even the Old beast didn't mention it. There are many people around the Thunder Phoenix skeleton and it is giving off some ferocious aura of lightning energy.
When looking at it, Sam was reminded of the Hydra skeleton he had in his divine dimension. Even though Mia's mother agreed with him to do whatever he wanted with the Skeleton, he didn't want to tinker with it.
After all, since he and Mia are like family now, it is beyond his bottom line. He kept the skeleton with him for now and decided to bury it in the Hydra grave in higher realms about which he learned directly from the Old Beast.
Since Mia needs to take revenge for her mother, the hydra beasts would have face him sooner or later, then he would be able to dig through the graveyard of other hydras and use those skeletons to do whatever he wanted.
Sam looked at the valley full of youngsters. All of them are lightning elemental users and they are all meditating at various places near the skeleton and some of them even sat in the middle of the rib cage.
There are also some people who seemed to be guarding these youngsters.
Sam felt the aura of the skeleton and felt that it is not as strong as the aura of the Hydra skeleton, the difference is almost as vast as the strength between an Initiation cultivator of Mortal Plane and the Initiation cultivator of the Astral Plane.
But there are this many people to gain comprehension from such a skeleton. Now only Sam understood what kind of resource he held.
But that is not bothered him now. He needs to find the location of the hidden entrance to the divine dimension the Old Beast mentioned.
With the number of people here, it would be almost impossible to go unnoticed.
Luckily the strongest is only at Late stage Transcendence of Astral Plane which is a bit of a relief.
Sam wanted to find more information about the whole situation and sent out some insect type puppets to see if he can hear anything from the people that are at the mouth of the valley.
Everyone is talking a lot of nonsense, but finally there is someone who is speaking something that has some useful information.
”So, how many days the valley is going to be open for us this time?” An elderly man in a luxurious robe asked a middle aged man who is standing behind all the crowd.
The middle aged man smiled and said.
”Why are you so worried Elder? I heard you have been asking this question to everyone.”
The Elderly man smiled and said.
”It is just that my grandson is on verge of breaking through the Astral Plane. As you know he is quite talented. But he might need some time for the comprehension. I just want to be prepared.”
”Oh? Your grandson is already on verge of the breakthrough. I thought it would take some time. It is no problem. This time our Puppet Organization is going to hold the valley open for fifteen days. You don't need to worry. Tell your grandson to focus on just comprehension and the breakthrough inside.”
The elderly man beamed with joy and said.
”That is a relief. I am really thankful for the Puppet organization.”
