24 Fang Clan - 3 (1/2)

Ace was given a special room in the huge courtyard house. it was a guest room and whole house had many guests of fang clan. There were some old man who were blacksmiths and there was even a little boy who was surprisingly an Alchemist! He was only 14 years old but he was already Spirit Mortal level 2 and a Beginner level Alchemist.

Just like Blacksmiths, alchemists were also divided into ranks which were mortal level, Apprentice level and so on.

There were four subdivision in each level for example in mortal level there were beginner, Intermediate, Advance and peak level. One's level in alchemy or blacksmithing had nothing to do with one's Cultivation. there were still some limitations as no matter how big of a genius you are, you won't be able to become Master level or grandmaster level Blacksmith without sufficient strength.

Ace wanted to rest as he directly went into his room. He did wanted to learn many things from those people but how would it look like if master of a star sector, Sector Lord Ace trouper asking around for information from bunch of old men?

Ace rested and cultiveted naturally in the light of sun, light around him was concentrated and suddenly he got a wild idea!

Fresnel lens! Why didn't I think of it before!?

” I need sand, I can't make a good enough fresnel lens without good sand. Right there is a river nearby. ”

Ace left the Fang clan as he notified the guards. He told them he would be back at night.

Ace directly went towerds the river shore and collected many samples of sand. His 3D printer came alive and started working on the sand to convert it into glass, at the same time multicolored beams started molding the glass into the shape of Fresnel lens.

He found out that yellow sand was best for the lens and it had less impurities. Satisfied with the sand, he made a huge Fresnel lens from the sand, it was round and was divided into eight parts, it was a round lens and he was even able to fold it and stack it over the single part. It's radius was 1 m and Ace directly put the lens over his head.

Suddenly all the heat from sun was concentrated on his head and his head felt like it was about to boil. He quickly adjusted the lens and the beam now concentrated on his chest.

His cloths were instantly burned but he didn't even feel a thing on his skin, instead he felt warm and cozy. His body was rapidly absorbing the heat and light from the lens as he started Cultivating on the spot.

It was on the shore of the river and as it was fang clan's property, no one came to disturb him there. There were birds chirping and fish swimming in the river.

It was peaceful atmosphere in which after just two hours of Cultivation, there came a wave of heat from Ace's body. He broke through to the Rank 9 Spirite mortal!

This speed of Cultivation was because of the lens which concentrated huge amount of heat on his body and light which helped him Cultivate both fire and light attribute Spritual force from atmosphere. His speed was faster than normal from the start and the Fresnel lens provided enough energy to his body which led to this breakthrough.

[ Master, your Cultivation is unstable, your body is not adept to huge increase in strength. you need to absorb the new Spritual force which has entered your body through the Fresnel lens ]

Ace naturally knew this as he was able to feel the energy inside his body. it was like suddenly someone had burst many Spritual crystals and all the energy went inside him. It was still energy but he needs to convert all that energy into his own spritual force.

For next two days, he adjusted his Cultivation and did many different sets of techniques which were recorded inside his memory. there was a set of technique inside Fire God's fist which explained how to deal with a situation when there was suitable Cultivation environment available and how to increase speed of accumulation of the Spritual force inside his body.

In two days, he had converted almost half of the energy present in his body into his own Cultivation as his Cultivation as Rank 9 Spirite mortal was solidified.

He came out after third day as first thing he did was to change his cloths. He then took a good meal which was provided by fang clan.

Ace wasn't in rush to join Thunder Storm society as he had heard that in that society, only those that were above Apprentice level can join and after some inquiries he found out that the Thunder Storm society was secretly backed by Misty pavilion. It was a private power that was run by three dominant clans under Misty pavilion.

There would always be some formidable Cultivators who wouldn't want to join the Misty pavilion because of various reasons. They can work like hired Mercenaries in Thunder Storm society and earn resources. For Misty pavilion, it was same as recruiting those people because if they find someone with potential in the Thunder Storm society then they would directly invite him.

Of course the expert can decline and still stay as a part of the Society.
