《Beast Cultivating System》Chapter 16 - Exploring the Capital
Advertisement
As soon as Dana approached towards the city gates, there was a long line of people before the entrance of the city.
The line of people steadily entered the city, paying a toll before they entered. Dana noticed that normal inhabitants of the capital can enter how they pleased, and the toll is mainly implemented towards the cultivators which visit the Azure Capital.
This place really is really a money-making scheme snickered Dana, even though she lined up obediently like everyone else.
I can't make trouble straight away, I'm still not strong enough in a one-on-one confrontation between the Azure Emperor yet, although Dana was confident in herself and believe she wouldn't be completely helpless like last time when she faced a cultivator with that much sign of a cultivation difference.
Since then she has progressed greatly in her soul cultivation even purchasing a mortal rank soul martial skill from the system, and also the further her cultivation progresses the more noticeable body cultivation has an impact on her strength in comparison to other cultivators with doesn't practice body cultivator and her cultivation method will prove to be.
As mentioned by now with the use of the Dragon Emperor cultivation technique, her Qi is exceedingly pure, making her Qi much stronger than another individual at her stage with a weaker cultivation technique than hers.
Also, Dana knew that it will continuously improve alongside her bloodline as it progresses towards becoming a genuine True Dragon bloodline, as the cultivation method is created for the bloodline holders for the True Dragon. As Dana was beginning to fantasize the day she will finally be a True Dragon proudly soaring through the sky like an Emperor, the systems condescending voice echoed throughout her mind.
[Host, can you stop standing there daydreaming, the guards at the entrance has been calling you for five minutes for the next person to pay the toll and the humans are beginning to look at you like your a complete lunatic.]
As soon as the system made her realize she had daydreaming for five minutes under the watch of countless people, Dana flushed in embarrassment which was completely covered up by the cloak she wore.
She decided to cover up her looks for now as she didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble immediately after she enters the capital.

Quickly approaching the angered guards under the scorching gaze of the other humans behind her in line.
"Five silver for entering." An angry tone came from the young guards' voice.
As he thought of this shady individual covered up from head to toe in a cloak wasting his time for five minutes he couldn't help but grow irritated, he seen many people which didn't have the coin required to enter the city and came up with all sorts of excuses and with this individual taking so long to approach he believed this was someone who was messing around.
"Can this cover the cost?" Dana said.
Dana's melodic voice stunned the guard, causing him to blush.
However, after he saw what was in Dana's hand he was shocked. That was a Beast Qi Circulation core! At the very minimum, even the lowest ranked Beast Qi Circulation core is worth 10 gold, this sure is a lavish person thought the guard.
"Yes, yes! That will easily cover the cost, Miss, come right through right away!" Sounded the guard opposite him, this guard was an experienced man and knew a rich individual seeing one, he believes that she is definitely a genius high ranked noble from another country on a trip for an experience.
Someone which mere guards like them couldn't offend, as the gate guard has been stationed here for ten years he has seen many genius nobles from other countries come to the Azure Empire for experience, as not only does the Azure Empire contain Devils Peak an excellent training ground for fighting spirit beasts!
But, it also has a capital which has many commodities such as high valued weapons, beast cores and holds auctions regularly, this guard deduced that this woman came to the Capital for one of these reasons.
As Dana entered the city walking past the guard, the experience turned to the young guard and stated in a scolding voice. "Listen, that lady there is probably a high-ranking noble, coming from the way she dismisses a Qi Circulation core so easily the only people who can do that are individuals with extremely high background, someone we cannot afford to offend!"
Sweat dripped from the young guard's face, relieved that the young Lady in front of him had a good attitude.
If it was one of those arrogant young misses, he could have been executed on the spot for the way he addressed her!

As Dana entered the city, a bustling atmosphere surrounded her as mortals went there day to day business, merchants advertised their wares attempting to sell their merchandise, beggars roamed the street looking for coin and weapon merchants proclaiming their weapons in being the best in the Capital!
As Dana started walking around soaking in the atmosphere, she decided that for today she would just explore around the capital.
Spending time as a Spirit Beast in that forest meant that she hadn't actually had a time where she could be carefree like this for a while without worrying that she will be stabbed in the back.
As Dana walked around the stores looking at the wares, haggling with the various merchants and spending her time looking around the capital, the day already had past, the surroundings beginning to become dark.
"Guess, I should find a place to rest for the night."
As soon as Dana thought this she approached the first decent looking Inn she saw, deciding that this place looked suitable enough for her, she decided to enter the inn after she went inside a boisterous atmosphere was present, burly mercenaries were drinking jugs of alcohol whilst leering at the barmaids as they manoeuvred away from their wandering hands whilst placing drinks on the tables, loud voices of men gambling sounded whilst they were playing card games with the others present!
After she entered numerous, scrutinizing glares were directed towards her, each of them quickly averting their eyes as they made eye contact with her.
As Dana currently had her cloak on she was leaking a dangerous, wild and savage aura making her seem as if she was a beast in human skin, each of these mercenaries had experience countless battles themselves, and they were extremely sensitive towards this type of this aura, this individual in front of them had killed many people!
In fact Dana herself hadn't realized the aura she is unintentionally releasing as a result of killing countless beasts in Devils Peak, as she focused on her advancement she had to kill hundreds of Body Refining and Qi Refining beasts and some human cultivators, as a result of all this she had managed to kill far more than the average mercenary!
As Dana approached towards the counter, Dana's sweet voice sounded throughout the whole Inn, captivating everyone present. "Can I have a room for one please?" Her voice causing the young girl at the counter to blush.
"Yes, of course, Miss, that will be two silver for a room for one night or eight silver for a week with meals included of course!" Responded the young girl sweetly.
"I will take a room just for the night," Dana responded placing two silver in front of the young girl, as she had spent her day haggling with the merchants, she exchanged some of her Qi Circulation beast cores for some of the currency of the Azure Continent.
As Qi Circulation cores right now at the moment are useless for her and at the same time she is planning to stay here for a while, which requires her to have some of the currency.
As Dana received the keys to her room and left to her room, the bustling atmosphere which turned quiet when Dana was speaking immediately returned.
"Wow, that women sure must be a beauty going by her voice!" A young man sounded. A hint of anticipation at the beauty which lays behind that cloak.
An older experience mercenary slapped the young boy, "Shut up boy! That girl is dangerous I felt it from her, she has killed and not just a small number either! You'll more likely end up dead if you try to get near her!" Berated the experienced mercenary.
The young man gulped, not daring to speak about the beautiful women any further or else he might end up with a miserable death!
As Dana locked the door for her room, she lied down on the bed going to sleep.
Tomorrow, I will find some ways to further increase my cultivation so I can have assurance in strength to defeat the Azure Emperor and at the same time I'm going to research the noble families in the Empire to find a suitable candidate for taking over, after all, she is not an irresponsible person, if she just slaughtered the Emperor and left then it will cause the suffering of many innocent individuals.
So with these thoughts within her mind, Dana drifted off to sleep.

Humans Are Evil (completed)
A world of magic, where empires rise and fall, and where civilization is never safe from the perpetual menace of the monsters that roam the land. In this volatile landscape Fera is reborn and must adapt to this new and ever-changing world. She will grasp at whatever opportunities she finds to escape her unfortunate birth as an orphan. Either excelling, or wallowing in self-pity, Fera will question if this world of magic was as fantastical as she initially thought. Note: The story is technically a litRPG, but much less like a game and more akin to real life, for example obtaining a class does not give free skills to the individual, it’s the other way around! Skills are what unlock your class, so an individual who learns magic skills will unlock mage classes, classes then provide passive buffs and stats, in my opinion this makes everything feel more earned so that the power levels in the world are more natural, rather than every single random person being a powerhouse.
