Upon entering the city both Kai xi and Draven stepped down from the carriage and thanked the coachman for his help.
Draven started walking towards a direction. Seeing Draven already entering the city Kai xi started following him.
Draven walked towards an antique shop.
..."We need money to survive in this city",Draven said with an anxious look
After entering the antique shop Draven put out a token from his pocket and showed to shopkeeper.
"2.5k gold coins and 350 silver coins." A loud,clear and noisy but gentle voice came saying the price of the token.
"2k gold coins and 5350 silver coins",Draven replied.
The shopkeeper making a confused expression asked,"Any particular reason?"
Draven with calm look on his face replied,"Not specifically but it would be better."
Later,when Draven and Kai xi were out of the shop,Draven gave Kai xi 700 silver coins and said that they will meet again at 9 'o' clock,till then Kai xi can do whatever he wish.
Kai xi with his arrogant personality (actual personality) asked Draven,"Where are you going?"
Draven replied,"I am going to starfall Hotel to book rooms for us,if you wish you can come with me."
....10 minutes later
Kai xi was walking towards the east gate of that border city.
Kai xi came to know that city's name was 'Iriti dakshin'. It was one of the eight main border cities of the empire.
While walking Kai xi (in mind) said Toneru-- What should I do now?
Toneru replied,"I can teach you a method to make essence stones."
Kai xi hearing this got shocked but his facial expressions remained unchanged.
Intrigued Kai xi said-- You mean those stones which can amplify attributes power, right?
Toneru in fast and very thin voice-- yes yes!
Hearing this Kai xi said-- Teach me
Toneru explained-- You are in white level, so the process shouldn't be that hard for you.Gather spiritual energy using your sword and carve a stone using as much spiritual power as you can,then add a spiritual dew into it
______Outer forest of Iriti Dakshin____
Kai xi walked through a path in forest leading to more eastern side outside of the east gate.
Kai xi walking through the path, seeing green plants around him gets confused and says,"we are in a desert landscape and I'm witnessing Greenery?"
Everything went silent for a while.
Then Kai xi put out the sword that transparent figure (Chaos Lord soul form) gifted him from the golden black scabbard on his waist.
Kai xi grab a medium sized stone and put it on the ground.
Then lifted his sword and started to gather spiritual energy. By using the tip of the sword he threw the stone into the air and made it float on air using some extra spiritual energy.Then he used his sword and carved the stone into a polygon of trapezium shape having a hole at one side with one end.
Kai xi asked Toneru the next step.
Toneru replied--You are quite talented,not everyone can perform two task using spiritual energy at same time. At least,according to my knowledge no one in white level.
Kai xi with terrible expression-- I know I'm better, please tell me the next step demoness queen.
Toneru replied--At first relax your mind and try gathering spiritual energy in your body. Then concentrate it at one point and you can condesnse a spiritual dew.
Ka xi hearing this, closed his eyes and started to absorb spiritual energy and highly concentrated it on his index finger of right hand. Then those spiritual energies at high amount started converting into a spiritual dew. Then Kai xi took the stone and put the dew in its hole.
After this process Kai xi started to concentrate spiritual energy on the stone. Then that stones started reacting and the spiritual dew became solid suddenly the stones started to release blue or a and it transformed into a water essence.
_ POV "UNKNOWN PLACE" AGAIN_
The two mask man were talking.
They are mask reveal to be wolf masks with one having red scars and another having green scars.
The person with The Mask of red scars said," did you find?"
The person with green scars mask replied,"Yet no report."
The person with The Mask of red scars--
We are in this part of gigantic whale continent for a decade still no info?
I give you 1 year and this is your last chance, after that I will start slottering I don't care even if heavenly supreme arrived.
_____________POV Kai xi____________
After making essence stones for an hour. It could be observed that there were many essence stones behind Kai xi and he was sitting on ground, exhausted.
Kai xi in a very low voice said to Toneru-- after an hour of hard work I was only able to produce 12 essence stones, I don't think I can get a good amount of money with this. I am so exhausted that I cannot even though spiritual energy to convince more spiritual dews for essence stones.
Toneru in chilled voice replied-- Don't worry when you will reach Ground stage,I'll teach you a method which will make your body so reactive that your body will effortlessly and automatically absorb spiritual energy from nature so you don't have to work hard for it and you won't get exhausted easily.
Toneru said-- Hey, everyone is progressing their skills to dominate the world,what's your motivation and goal for progressing your soul skill?
...Kai xi w with the support of his words to the and said,"how Im going to carry these essence stones? I don't even have a bag!"
Toneru said-- I came to know that in this new era people carry a small pouch called storage bags for carrying their materials.
Kai xi making an annoyed expression replied Toneru-- what do you mean by this era have storage bags? How you carry items? Do you have item box? That super inventory?
Toneru replied -- that era when Giant Lord used to rule this planet people use a skill called white space and another skill called void space.
You can call that a small dimension that people used to create for storing things. You can think it as an infinite inventory. But these were the skills that came from outer world so people started neglecting it and besides that item box have a speciality that stops time to penetrate, so if you keep a thing in it will remain in the same condition.
Kai xi seeing this thought in mind--Its enough.
Kai xi said-- Nah! Stop we can't go further. Earth level storage bags are for rich people and item boxes are super rare that only heavenly emperor and some of the chosen heavenly Kings have a chance to have it.
Toneru in chilled voice replied-- You first achieve peak of Law and I'll teach you Void space.
While they were talking a man came running in the forest and accidentally hit Kai xi.
Kashi got a little scared and suddenly put out his Sword and stared at the man.
The man-- Sorry, I was so excited for the first time that I didn't see you.
Kai xi put down his sword and said-- It's okay.
Toneru being Toneru (shameless) said Kai xi-- why don't you ask the man for help?
But before Kai xi could reply Toneru about this the man asked Kai xi if he needed anything or any kind of help.
Kai xi said-- sure,You can help me, can you carry these stones with me?
The man replied-- sure,You can have my backpack.
Then Kai xi put the stones in the backpack and started walking.
