I Just Want A Peaceful Life Chapter 223
Advertisement
A week has passed by since Jade decided to follow Angus to the Firuman. Then, Jade gives the others a choice to keep following him or separate by themselves. Jade didn't press this matter and gave her some time to choose.
After that day, the sand turtle rose and moved again, which made everyone in the Sur village relieved.
As long as the sand turtle moves, there is a lower chance for anyone to attack them. However, there are still many monsters or beasts stranded like Angus when he first arrives here.
For the safety of the village, they need to be killed as soon as possible. The Sur village also needs to subdue the sand slime that will appear as soon as the sand turtle moves. Sand slime is a good ingredient for increasing the potency of potions.
Since many people decide to leave this place, they need to harvest all the nearby sand slime this time. They don't know when they will ever meet such a creature again.
Before going on a journey in the Endless Battlefield, they need to prepare many things from supplies, potions, items, etc. Fortunately, during their last transaction, they get many raw ingredients that supply them enough for a few years.
By another coincidence, most crafters, such as blacksmiths, alchemists, and others, didn't go to the Ancestral Ruin and stay in the village. So, they still survive and could produce some product to supply their journey.
After hearing Jade's decision, most of the people are still indecisive. Still, most of them already decided to follow Jade, especially the one who has followed him since he built the village.
For the Sur village, Jade is not only their leader but a spiritual pillar for them. Without him, they would never survive in this harsh land and create a village as big as the other four big villages.
Still, unlike the other four big villages, Sur villages are categorized as new villages. They don't have a deep foundation.
This is also the majority reason why the ambush attack could easily cripple the Sur village. They lack rare items such as artifacts, high-grade runes, scrolls, and many others. These kinds of things are very hard to procure and need a lot of time to accumulate.
Unlike the other four big villages, which have already existed for a long time, The Sur villages didn't have enough time to collect this kind of item.

The Sur villages have an excellent quality of combatant and could easily overpower the other villages combatant of the same rank. However, this advantage is now gone as most of the combatants died during the Farkas's attack.
The Jade decision to follow his journey surprised Angus himself. At first, Angus thought he would need to continue the journey without his uncle, unlike their previous plan. But, he never thought that his uncle would propose such a bold move for everyone.
This shows the outstanding leadership of Jade as the leader. Although it is a gamble, he always looks at the prospect of the future. Angus also agrees with Jade's decision to move his village to the Firuman and join the heart kingdom.
After staying in this dimension for a few months, Angus realizes the Endless Battlefield dimension is unsuitable for living.
According to the story of the older generation in the Sur village, not only does this dimension have many dangerous areas, such as Toxic Wasteland where the Plague Worm lives, but it has a lot of monster overlord and seventh-grade beast scattered all over the place.
Angus suspects that Firuman will turn like this dimension if the civilian society loses its footing. Still compared to Endless Battlefield, Firuman is many times better and suitable for living.
Although there is a war between nations and continues fight with monsters, it is still relatively safe than this treacherous land.
Because of the lack of manpower, Angus and his group help the villagers to subdue the monster and collect the sand slime as a hunting squad.
Currently, Angus is standing still while closing his eyes. Not far from his location, Jayna, Anna, and Ilgor fight against a few stranded monsters. He let the others get some experience fighting against monsters while he trained.
Angus wants to use the pinnacle technique of martial art [Domain]. During the fight against the Darkwing Bat monster overlord, Angus somehow managed to use [Domain] for a moment to block the other Darkwing Bat.
The domain is the pinnacle of martial art from Angus's previous life. This skill is on the border of supernatural power. By utilizing [Domain], the user could control everything inside the Domain. This is the highest mastery of control.
After having absolute control over their body, the next level is to control their surroundings. This kind of stage is called [Domain], a stage where the user controls his surroundings.

However, this skill is not easy to achieve. Some need to meditate and fasten for years. Some need to train nonstop every day. Some talented ones could use it immediately but with limitations. Every person has a different requirement to use [Domain].
Moreover, the domain absolute control power is also hard to use. Just to move an inanimate object sometimes already takes everything for the user.
Because of this high requirement, not many people could use Domain. Even if they could use it, they would only move small objects at most.
Still, the Domain absolute control power is impressive that it could control life and death itself. Few ascetic monks in Angus's past life could even control the life and death of small animals.
Angus himself, in his past life, could also do the same. In his pinnacle, Angus created a battle-oriented domain that could help him defeat any opponent who entered it.
In front of his domain, no matter how strong the enemy, he could always defeat them as he knows everything about the opponent. For years, Angus has already tried to use this skill again, only to meet a roadblock.
He knows one of the main reasons is his conflicted mind and contradictory thinking. He thought he would never achieve or use Domain again.
However, he somehow activates Domain during his fight against the monster overlord, which is only for a moment.
This gives him hope to use this skill once again. Angus still believes that the greatest power is not strength but absolute control. Using Absolute Control, he could even control the world itself.
'Haa.. It seems I can't use it anymore. It's a fluke, I guess.' thought Angus while he opened his eyes.
"During that time, I just want nothing but to kill that monster. Did I need to have that kind of mindset before using Domain?" muttered Angus.
"Urrgghh… Why is it so hard to practice this? As far as I remember, I never had difficulty using the domain. Don't tell me it is because I use mana instead of chi." as Angus begins to think for a while.
Ever since Angus arrived in this world, he never created his own dantian as he believed there is no chi in this world. Instead of chi, there is mana where everyone could use it. Unlike Mana, cultivating chi is an arduous task.
Just produce a drop of chi. Angus needs to meditate and exercise for days. Moreover, it is also hard to use and control, unlike mana. Because of this, Angus discarded his idea to cultivate chi and make his own dantian.
The advantage of mana is exceeding the usage of chi. But, now Angus has begun to think about cultivating the chi and making his own dantian. The domain skill is one of the reasons he managed to reach the pinnacle in his past life.
"Huft… It seems I need to create my dantian first to find out. Alright, let's finish this hunting first." said Angus while he used [Great Mana Echolocation]
After detecting the surrounding desert area, Angus begins to point his finger in a certain direction [3rd Circle - Snipe Shot]. a concentrated small mana bullet flying and killing a monster far away from his location.
Angus starts to hunt any nearby first-grade monster using snipe shots while the others fight the monster. Soon, they managed to kill all the monsters in the surrounding area. Most of the monsters in the surrounding area are only low-grade monsters.
It is very rare for a high-grade monster stranded in the back of the sand turtle. High-grade monsters have better wisdom and could easily perceive the sand turtle's presence even if it submerged into the sandy ground.
After killing the other monster, Angus and the others decide to rest first before changing their location. While they are resting inside the tent, Angus tries to create his dantian below his abdomen.
Sitting in the lotus position, Angus begins to perceive the heritage chi misty ball. Angus plans to use the heritage chi to create his dantian and cultivate his chi as the power source. According to his experience, heritage chi could be refined into his own chi and dantian.
As he slowly takes the energy near the misty ball, Angus refines it according to past life experience. One hour, two hours, three hours passed. Suddenly an invisible wave erupted from Angus's body. *Whooshh*
