Chapter 377 - 330 : No Mercy For the Enemy (1/2)
”B-but fathe-”
The voice was interrupted by a middle-aged man who seemed strict and slightly angry. This man was the current Patriarch of the Mirage Era Hall sect. His son came asking for help as he was mistreated and humiliated.
Visto stood before his father with his lowered, the arrogance and haughtiness he usually demonstrates was nowhere to be found.
”Don't think I'm a fool. Witnesses told me exactly what happened and it's your fault for causing trouble.”
Athard Exas, the father of Visto, felt embarrassed by the behavior of his son. In fact, were it not for the elders currently present, he would have beaten Visto half-dead.
He knew that Visto is arrogant because he's the Patriarch's son and thanks to his high Realms, which placed him above his peers, however, he shouldn't have provoked a stranger.
Moreover, this stranger was welcomed as an honorary Elder inside his sect. It wasn't something he could control albeit being the Patriarch as the Grand Elder held more authority than him.
Plus, no matter how much he investigated, he couldn't uncover the guest's background, which made him hesitate and act cautiously.
In fact, he was delighted to see a strong person residing in his sect, however, knowing his son's attitude, he probably won't let this matter slide.
It was speculated that the guest had the cultivation of a peak grade God. It wasn't comparable to the elders but it was still a respectable, especially for someone who seemed to be a lone cultivator.
”Anyway, you're forbidden from leaving the golden hall for the next month.”
The young man wanted to protest but immediately gave up once he saw his father's cold gaze. He could act however he wants in the outside but when facing his father, he could only be obedient and follow orders.
After Visto left, Athard glanced at the elder standing next to him and muttered
”Anything new about our new guest?”
The elder shook his head and replied
”No. The young miss said that he helped her in the Wicked Forest and they became friends. Also, the Grand Elder regards him favorably.”
Athard nodded his head and added:
”Notify the others to not bother him. Anyone who tries anything will be heavily punished.”
…
After spending a lot of effort to retrieve the two corpses, Arthur rested in his spacious room. He cultivated for a few hours but the results were minimal and disappointing. His speed in cultivating is lackluster, to say the least.
”Aren't I supposed to be a heavenly talent after absorbing so many corpses?”
Arthur asked Claud, wanting to know the reason behind his slow advancement in cultivation. Actually, his talent wasn't that bad, it was decent, however, compared to Lucy or other talents, he was still lacking.

”Actually, what people call talent is DNA. Each person or beast has a unique DNA and since you possessed a large quantity, you have stored all those DNA but unable to access most of them. Yes, your body is extremely tough and strong, but it doesn't necessarily accommodate all kinds of DNA. This DNA can be influenced by certain bloodlines or in some rare cases, Physiques. Currently, you cannot make use of the stored DNA but if we play our cards right, we can force an evolution that'll allow you to access them all. At that time, you'll be able to transform into anything you possessed without requiring a host.”
”And how to force an evolution?”
After a short silence, Claud answered
”It depends on the circumstances. If, for example, you stay in a poisonous place for a certain amount of time, the System will offer you a choice to evolve. Even I, don't know the requirements for a body that can store all those DNA, I guess we have one more reason to reach the Garden of Words.”
Hearing him, Arthur clicked his tongue and remained silent. Claud refused to say anything about the Garden of Words, even its location, which annoyed him but he couldn't just force it out of his mouth so he can only swallow his anger.
…
Late at night, Visto entered the Golden Hall, which is a good place to cultivate as it had thick Nether Energy and it's especially good for those who cultivate the sect's technique.
No one but him was inside this magnificent hall that was decorated with nothing but pure gold. Just as the young man entered meditation and activated his cultivation technique, he felt something was amiss. His bodyfelt numb and he started feeling immense pain from his Dantian.
