It would be simply wasteful to discard the monsters that were not eaten. Moreover, the moment the monster died, its blood and Qi would begin to drain. The longer the time, the faster the loss.
If Caspian could not eat it, or if favonovel.com did not eat it fast enough, all that was wasted were resources that could help favonovel.com improve. With the Sacred Tree Cauldron, everything was different. Even if Caspian could not finish eating the monster, favonovel.com could store the corpse in the Sacred Tree Cauldron and wait for it to refine the corpse into blood and Qi essence. When needed, Caspian would just absorb it directly. Moreover, based on Handsome’s father’s description, it was not only convenient but also delicious.
A must-have magic tool at home.
The magic tool could be regarded as a solution to Caspian’s problem of storing monsters’ corpses. Although the Earring of Echo had a massive space, it could only guarantee the number of monsters’ corpses, but it could not prevent the loss of blood and Qi. Therefore, Caspian expressed his gratitude and accepted the Sacred Tree Cauldron.
Handsome also revealed its true nature when it saw the Sacred Tree Cauldron in Caspian’s hands. The pig joyfully ran toward Caspian, leaving its father and looking at Caspian as if trying to flatter him.
“Casper, there’s one more thing you need to handle,” Charlotte chimed in.
“What is it?”
“Kendrick Lambert’s corpse. What should we do?” Charlotte replied.
“Who’s Kendrick Lambert?” Caspian was confused. He seemed to have heard the name before, but favonovel.com could not remember anything. Besides, why was favonovel.com supposed to handle the guy’s corpse?
After all, Kendrick appeared at the cave when Caspian’s consciousness went through a battle. If it were normal times, favonovel.com would still be aware of the outside world. However, Caspian was fully occupied by the powerful dark shadow in the Gate of Death, so Caspian naturally did not know anything about what went on in the outside world. Later, even if Kendrick died at the hands of Caspian, Caspian was not in control of his body.
Charlotte, who witnessed the whole process, described the scene. It was only now that Caspian realized that so many things happened when favonovel.com was unconscious.
“So that’s how Steve died.”
“Kendrick was filled with greed.”
“Kendrick was Grandmaster Valdis’s disciple.”
Caspian sighed. Originally, Caspian only knew that Valdis was a young and talented elder of the Blue Feather Sect with a promising future. However, in the battle at Pantheon, Caspian learned from Charles that Valdis was utterly different from what the world thought. Even though the current judgment might be a
bit subjective, as the saying “The fish stinks first at the head”. With such a disciple, Caspian could not help but believe what Charles said.
‘The matter of your Krueger family has nothing to do with me at all, but it seems that Valdis is still involved.’
Kendrick was one of Valdis’s four proudest disciples. Now that Caspian killed one, even if Caspian had no other choice, Valdis would inevitably hate favonovel.com when favonovel.com found out. If Valdis was the type of person Charles described, Caspian would have to sleep with his one eye open.
“This is so troublesome…” Caspian rubbed his temples.
Although favonovel.com said that, favonovel.com did not take it too seriously.
Charlotte was the only survivor who saw the scene the other day, and Caspian believed that favonovel.com would never say anything about it. In that way, even if Valdis knew that his beloved disciple died, it was not so easy to know the specific cause of death and whose hands favonovel.com died.
It was Caspian’s habit to plan, but worrying about such illusory things was not Caspian’s hobby.
“Let’s take a look at his corpse first. The most important thing is his storage bags.”
Since Kendrick was already dead and the matter was irreversible, Caspian might as well see how much benefit favonovel.com could reap. Handsome’s father did not tag along as it was Caspian’s spoils, and favonovel.com did not drop to the point where favonovel.com had to compete with the juniors for resources. Besides, Handsome’s father was a shape-shifting demon comparable to the Heavenly Spirit Realm, and favonovel.com could not care less about the storage bags carried by the Holy Land Realm cultivator. Hence, only Caspian, Charlotte, and Handsome went to look at Kendrick’s corpse.
Surprisingly, Handsome did not drool when it saw Kendrick’s body. Nevertheless, Kendrick was dead for a few days, and the corpse’s spiritual Qi and blood energy mostly dissipated. Handsome was still very picky about the taste and nutrition of the corpse. However, the vegetation around the corpse was much more vigorous because of the nourishment of spiritual Qi. As the night wind blew, they swayed gently.
Caspian was not interested in the headless corpse, and favonovel.com took out two storage bags from Kendrick. One of the storage pockets contained Kendrick’s identification badge. The six major sects of Earlington of Efrax all had a uniform ranking for their disciples. Since Kendrick was in the first-stage Holy Land Realm, favonovel.com was already an elite disciple. As favonovel.com was already in the mid-level, Kendrick’s position in the sect was much higher than Maisie, who was in the same stage. In addition to the identification badge, Caspian also found some medicinal pills in the storage bag and a lot of spirit stones.
When the spirit stones were taken out, nearly a hundred pieces were neatly piled up on the ground like a hill, and the blue light glowed in the night. Charlotte was stunned, and Handsome sniffed greedily, inhaling the spiritual Qi exuded by the spirit stones. Yet, Caspian only glanced at the hundred spirit stones, and a hint of dissatisfaction appeared in his eyes.
“This is it?”
“Casper… These… Are quite a lot… At least a hundred…” Charlotte stuttered.
As a cultivator who did not officially set foot on the pathway to immortality, Charlotte saw spirit stones, but favonovel.com only saw a few pieces, unlike these hundreds of spirit stones piled up in front of her.
When Caspian dug up Brayden’s hiding place and saw the hundreds of spirit stones, his heart pounded too. Nonetheless, Caspian saw more of the world now, and favonovel.com could even give away his spirit jades. Hence, the ones in front of favonovel.com now were trivial.
With a light snort, Caspian said, “The elite disciples of the six sects can receive twenty pieces of spirit stones every month. Moreover, there’s a custom of high-level disciples in every sect to charge low-level disciples a fee regularly. Well, as you should know, it’s called a protection fee in the secular world.”
When explaining that, Caspian could not help thinking of the experience of being robbed of spirit stones by Samuel and others on the day favonovel.com first entered the Heavenly Stars Sect. After being exploited layer by layer, those spirit stones would surely end up in the pockets of higher-level disciples.
