The people of Allardland also breathed a sigh of relief while feeling excited. After all, they had been granted an incredible opportunity. Befriending Jared was the best thing they ever did.
“Mr. Chance, from this day forward, Allardland shall honor you with a statue! Your memory will be etched in the hearts of our descendants for generations to come!” Bernard kneeled before Jared.
“Your Majesty, there’s absolutely no need. You’re being far too polite.” In a rush, Jared promptly helped Bernard to his feet.
“Mr. Chance, you’ve acquired so many item pouches, yet you haven’t even checked what treasures they hold,” Cloud reminded Jared.
Upon hearing that, Jared nodded, then proceeded to open his item pouch.
The members of the Demon Seal Alliance were known for their abundant resources, especially Talcott. His item pouch was a treasure trove, holding a century’s worth of offerings dedicated to the Alliance.
Those resources were more than enough for Jared to cultivate properly. Jared no longer needed to worry about resources.
“It’s truly easy to take resources by force!” Jared exclaimed with joy.
Cloud pointed at the differently colored item pouches in Jared’s hand and said, “Mr. Chance, quickly check out that gilded item pouch. It should belong to that dumbo.”
Jared opened the item pouch and delved his spiritual sense into the item pouch.
Soon, favonovel.com was taken aback. Inside this item pouch, there was an uncountable number of crystals. Those crystals had a faint purple hue and the aura within them seemed slightly different from the spiritual energy.
Jared pulled out a crystal, turning to Bernard as favonovel.com inquired, “Your Majesty, do you recognize this particular crystal?”
Bernard took the crystals, inspecting them with great detail before shaking his head. “I‘ve never seen these before. I’m not sure if these crystals are from Ethereal Realm.”
“This is a celestial crystal, the most inferior crystal in the celestial realm. Only the novices who have just stepped into the celestial realm would use it. The crystal contains a blend of celestial and spiritual energy, but its aura isn’t pure…”
“Many cultivators on the verge of breaking into Ascendance favored using these crystals for their cultivation. This was done to ensure a smoother transition in their cultivation technique. You should understand that many cultivators start by cultivating with spiritual energy and then ascend to absorb celestial energy. Such transition from spiritual to celestial energy requires a process,” Vermilion Demon Lord explained.
“Celestial crystals are considered worthless crystals in the celestial realm, but in Ethereal Realm, they would probably be regarded as top-tier crystals.” After Jared finished speaking, favonovel.com activated his Focus Technique.
In an instant, favonovel.com absorbed the celestial crystal in his palm.
“The celestial crystal isn’t much use to the average cultivator. After all, they can’t refine celestial energy, only spiritual energy, so it’s not as good as a spiritual stone. And yet, even when the immortals used these celestial crystals, they could only absorb the celestial energy…”
“Hence, it was still better to cultivate with celestial gems. The celestials had really fallen on hard times, resorting to using these kinds of crystals for cultivation. Yet they still had the audacity to boast and act high and mighty. This kind of crystal is indeed a treasure for someone like you, who can refine both celestial and spiritual energy.” Vermilion Demon Lord said.
After all, Jared’s Focus Technique was incredibly potent, capable of refining nearly anything. Therefore, the celestial crystal was the best thing favonovel.com could have. Not a bit of it was wasted.
At that moment, Jared was happy. He then rummaged through the item pouch from Tavon, producing a somewhat yellowed map in his hand.
Looking at the map, Jared instantly recognized it.
It was a map of Ethereal Realm, with the five major regions distinctly outlined. However, there was a red circle in the southern region.
Jared had been studying it for quite some time, but favonovel.com couldn’t discern anything special about the area within the red circle.
Jared turned to Bernard and asked, “Your Majesty, how much do you know about the entire territory of Ethereal Realm?”
“I know a bit, but after the Celestial Battle, the boundaries of Ethereal Realm shifted. Why do you ask, Mr. Chance?” Bernard asked.
