Chapter 637: Fasting Pills For Sale (1/2)
Dark Continent
In the Darkmoon Tribe, Chief Valencia stood on the plateau's edge while quietly overlooking the bustling activities within the tribe below before glancing up at the ominous crimson glow within the dark clouds above.
”These peaceful times won't last much longer,” Chief Valencia softly muttered with a calm look while her hands were linked behind her back.
Suddenly, a warrior quickly arrived and knelt on one knee with his hands clasped before Chief Valencia and reported, ”Chief, all the tribal chiefs that accepted the summit summoning has already arrived in the tribe for some time.”
”They are wondering that since everyone is already present, they suggested that you should go ahead and commence the summit meeting early.”
”There's no rush,” Chief Valencia shook her head and said, ”Let them wait. After all, the key person has not returned yet.”
”Do you really think Leonhardt will be coming back, Chief? What if he doesn't come back at all?” the warrior questioned with doubt before stating, ”We've learned that the living conditions in the Human Domain are much better than the Infertile Plains. Leonhardt might not want to come back.”
”If he doesn't want to come back, then we can just go over to the other side and have a look. The Teleportation Array is in our hands, after all. Although its power sockets are missing, the tribe has plenty of Demon Cores to power it,” Chief Valencia stated.
”The only reason we have yet to send anyone to the other side to confirm the living environment of the Human Domain is to show our trust and respect for Leonhardt. Anyway, we still have a day before the seven-day deadline. I can wait.”
”Ahh, you're right, Chief. I have forgotten about the Teleportation Array since it has been placed next to the prohibited area underground,” the warrior said.
”Also, you are wrong about one thing.”
”What thing, Chief?” the warrior asked with surprise.
”The Human Domain might or might not have good living conditions, but since the Cataclysm has erupted, do you think it would still be the same?” Chief Valencia questioned the warrior calmly.
The warrior froze.
The tribal chief had a point.
According to the information they know, the Human Domain was a sunny place with no looming clouds of darkness blotting out the sun like the Dark Continent.
The mighty sun rays would have devastated the lands and caused the earth to change along with its inhabitants, spawning chaos and death everywhere—according to the ancient texts.
Compared to that, the Infertile Plains did not sound so bad after all.
”I guess we can only wait until the remaining one-day period is up,” the warrior nodded shortly before asking, ”But what will we do if Leonhardt still doesn't turn up? What if he needs help dealing with Cataclysm problems?”
Chief Valencia paused in thought for a moment before she stated, ”I trust his abilities as he helped our tribe overcome our difficult times.”
”But like you said, if Leonhardt doesn't rock up after the remaining one-day period ends, we will gather the warriors and head over to the other side to check the situation before acting accordingly.”
”Understood, Chief.”

...
Time quickly flew by, and before Leon knew it, Darlene had already reached 9-star Ranked Awakener.
He had lost track of time while musing on the Destruction Law, or rather scenic memories and information that depicted the power of the Destruction Law at work.
'How much time has passed?' Leon wondered.
If Maya was still conscious, she would have been able to tell him. Alas, she needed Spirit Energy for recovery.
Shortly after, Leon shook his head with a sigh. The Destruction Law will be more difficult to comprehend than he thought, even with temporal acceleration.
The Supreme Laws were no joke. It was not wrong to claim that it was not a law that mortals could comprehend.
'Let's check on Darlene's progress,' Leon decided.
Although he could not tell how much time had passed, if he could see Darlene's progress, he would be able to gauge a rough estimate of the time—the minimum time passed, that is.
Swoosh~!
Leon flew over quickly, shortening his distance to Darlene in order to gauge her progress more accurately.
”Oh? Darlene has advanced to 9-star Ranked Awakener Realm?” Leon muttered with surprise before frowning, ”At least an hour has passed by the looks of it.”
”However...”
Leon's frown deepened.
Darlene was still absorbing Spatial Energy blindly without further improvement to her cultivation.
At this point, she was increasing quantity rather than quality. Not many people increase the quantity of their energy after reaching the peak of 9-star Ranked Awakener.
It was because Darlene had a unique space that could contain a lot more energy than a regular energy center, similar to his Black Vortex Space.
”Darlene, stop!”
”Huh?”
