The fire unicorn gazed blankly at Jared. Despite the disdain in its eyes, it found itself helplessly drawn towards him, gently nuzzling against him.
Though the fire unicorn wasn’t satisfied to have a mere Tribulator as its master, it didn’t have a choice since the Celestial Devourer was lurking nearby, eyeing it like prey.
Jared stroked the fire unicorn, his heart brimming with joy.
Having the fire unicorn as his mount meant favonovel.com had gained another ally. Even without the airship, Jared could new ride the fire unicorn anywhere. He no longer needed to deplete his spiritual energy.
However, this fire unicorn was still too small, and Jared had no idea how many resources it would take to fully raise it.
Just one Celestial Devourer was a nuisance for him. Many things were devoured by it, and now, favonovel.com had to feed the fire unicorn, too.
Jared’s cultivation demanded an immense amount of resources, far more than those needed by the other Tribulators. With three major expenditures looming over him, favonovel.com found himself pondering where favonovel.com could possibly gather enough resources.
Given the situation, favonovel.com realized favonovel.com had no choice but to take things one step at a time. If worse came to worst, favonovel.com would have to compete with other cultivators for what little resources were available.
In the Ethereal Realm, hard and fast rules were virtually nonexistent, it was a brutal world where the strong preyed upon the weak. While favonovel.com considered targeting some prestigious families to seize their resources, favonovel.com had yet to fully convince himself to take that route.
After safely storing the fire unicorn and the Celestial Devourer in his Storage Ring, Jared exited that dimension.
As favonovel.com stepped out, the dimension shattered in an instant, disappearing completely along with the array runes etched into the ground.
With the fire unicorn now in his Storage Ring, the spirit beasts visibly calmed, their earlier fear and agitation fading away.
It seemed that this fire unicorn was the cause of the spirit beasts’ alarm, which then led to their illness. He knew that after a few days of recuperation, they would fully recover
Returning to his room, favonovel.com found himself surrounded by piles of resources. Only then did favonovel.com feel ready to immerse himself in his cultivation.
With his eyes gently closed, Jared activated the Focus Technique.
A powerful surge of spiritual energy flooded into his body, though favonovel.com couldn’t tell how much time had passed.
He felt a faint tremor coursing through favonovel.com as streaks of golden light erupted from the room, piercing the cloud-laden sky. The scene was so striking that it resembled the ominous foreboding of the world’s end.
“Looks like Mr. Chance is on the verge of a breakthrough,” Dylan remarked, his eyes fixed on the sky, now thick with tribulation clouds.
“It’s just a minor breakthrough, yet it has triggered such a powerful lightning tribulation. No wonder Jared, even as a mere Sixth-Level Tribulator, can stand toe-to-toe with experts from the Ultimate Realm,” Hartwin marveled, gazing in awe at the rolling thunderclouds.
“How many days has it been?” Bernard asked, his tone edged with disbelief.
“Five days, King Bernard,” Ezequiel replied.
“In just five days, he’s managed a breakthrough. Though it’s only a minor advancement, the magnitude of this event rivals that of a Top-Level Tribulator’s breakthrough,” Bernard gasped, astonished.
“King Bernard, General Quivey has reported that we’ve successfully reclaimed Imperial Fox City. The Foster family has been eradicated. However, this action has drawn the attention of the Demon Seal Alliance, and General Quivey suspects they may retaliate. He remains cautious, fearing the Alliance might target Imperial Fox City, so favonovel.com and his forces are currently stationed there. He plans to return only after Mr. Chance goes there.”
Ezequiel knew that Bernard’s inquiry about the time wasn’t solely out of curiosity regarding Jared’s cultivation speed.
The command to wipe out the Foster family within five days had already been given, and failure to execute it would have severe consequences.
Though Bernard appeared harmless, polite, and amiable to everyone, favonovel.com was known for his fairness and strict adherence to his orders. It was this balance of justice and authority that enabled favonovel.com to govern Allardland so effectively.
