《Even the heavens will shudder》Chapter 8 : Third Rank magical cores

Advertisement

Lucius from Lyeak explaining found that magical cores of magical beasts can increase cultivation faster than simply entering the meditative state to absorb, a magical core is a condensed ball of energy that when eaten can be refined and thus be absorbed by warriors or mage cultivators but Lucius was special he had a Demon god within him, for a normal cultivator refining a magical core can take several days, it can even take weeks or months but what was a magical core for a Demon god, it was nothing but tiny bit of energy it was like candy , Lucius then with the Help of leyak was refining magical cores at an imaginable rate .

Lucius was hunting rats when a ferocious beast appeared and began to chase him, it was an azure cat, a rumored beast of the third rank, his special trait like in his name is his azure fur that is tougher than high grade iron, and its claws that are sharp enough to cut everything in pieces, this beast was preying on Lucius.

“What to do!! What to do!! , am I going to die” Lucius was afraid to die he didn’t even have the chance to do anything and now he was going to die.

“Shut up brat! I will try to kill it with my soul power but after that I will probably enter a deep slumber and I can’t say when I can wake up months, years, decades I don’t know “

“But …”

“I said shut up it’s the only situation “

Lucius didn’t have the chance to retort, the azure cat was constantly harassing him if it was not for the trees he probably would be minced meat by this time, suddenly a surge of power began to accumulate in the mind of Lucius, it was Leyak doing preparing for a soul attack, lucius arrived at a empty small area without trees, the azure cat claw was shopping toward his head when an intense sound rang.

Sfx (screech!!!!!)

The sound was so intense that the ears of Lucius began to hurt, turning to look he was astonished at the sight, the previously chasing Azure cat was battling another beast, but the other beast was evenly matched with azure cat

“Hmm? What luck you have kid you escaped a disaster two times in a row “Leyak seeing the scenery in front of him immediately regressed his soul energy.

“Master what is that beast? It resembles a serpent “Lucius was intrigued at the second beast

“hahaha it is a serpent , it’s a serpent type magical beast named silver python it’s also a third rank beast “

“But master why is it that they are fighting “

“Isn’t it obvious? The cat penetrated in the serpent territory” Leyak explained.

Indeed magical beasts control territories and even if another one of their same kin entered their territory they will become highly aggressive and even kill each other.

“But master then why didn’t it attack me?”Lucius was puzzled

“Brat you are a measly little human in its eyes why bothers with you compared to the cat that is a threat it evaluated that you are only an ant “

“Master, why did you add that last line!” Lucius exclaimed

“What It’s a good comparison ku ku ku “ Leyak Rejoiced

The azure cat and the silver serpent were engrossed in an intense battle each of them are third rank beasts, the cat with its sharpened claws and the serpent with its whip like tail, when the cat lunch a claw attack the serpent counter with a hit of its tail the speed of their attacks are astonishing, they appear and disappear like wind, all that Lucius can see is blurs and shadows.

The cat with is agility suddenly leaped forward to strike at the head of the serpent but just at that time the python opened its mouth and lunched its head to bite, the attack of the cat failed and its leg got caught, the azure cat howled in pain, Lucius was shocked if with its tough azure fur and it howled with this mush pain then what strength has the mouth of the silver python?

“Kid the silver python mouth muscles are so developed that it’s a dreadful weapon , of course for weaker or evenly matched enemies , but if I remember correctly the serpent will try to coil around the cat “Leyak seeing the expression of Lucius began to explain

Lucius was so attracted by the intense battle that he forgot to take advantage of the situation and flee

The serpent like Leyak said began to try to coil around the cat, its body is made of powerful muscles that can shatter iron, it began to wrap the azure cat to break its bones, and the azure cat struggled to escape but in vain.

Sfx (crackle! crackle…)

Sounds of bones breaking could be heard, but the cat didn’t give up, one of its paws were not caught up in the serpent body, it raised its claws delivered a blow at the head of the silver serpent, the serpent was surprised and didn’t have the time to react, his head god pierced through, it emitted a piercing cry before collapsing on the ground, but the next scene shocked Lucius , the azure cat also collapsed due the immense pain of the bones breaking and organs crushed it also died , the two magical beasts died at the same time , this battle was extraordinary , neither of the beasts gave up but in the end but the two of them met their death.

Lucius wore a complicated expression, it was the first time in his life that he saw such violence, the voice of Leyak snapped him of his daze.

“Kid I can’t believe that you have this much Luck, I’m seriously astounded, to third magical cores are lying in front of you know “Leyak was pleased if Lucius became stronger then he got nearer to his goal.

Lucius hearing Leyak words was startled, it was now that he understood the situation if magical cores of the second and first rank were so precious to him then what of the third rank?

“I’m truly lucky master I didn’t do anything and two treasures are in front of me “Lucius was bemused

He walked slowly to the corpses and with his black sword cut two holes in each head of the monsters, slowly extracting the small blue colored crystal cores.

“Kid return quickly to the hut with the corpses other beasts will be attracted “ Leyak warned .

“Ah yes master “

Lucius then with haste left the area , after a few time he finally arrived at his hut beside the small stream of water , he immediately drank a mouthful of water , sue to the running he was thirsty and hungry , he then ate and cleaned himself of the dirt and blood of the purple rats .

Sitting on the rock he examined the third rank cores he newly acquired and a look of delight was seen on his face.

“Master if I eat this cores how much energy I can assimilate?”Lucius wanted to know if his cultivation will have a noticeable change.

“Hmm you are now you are the peak of the first level if you eat them with the cores of the first rank you collected I can safely tell you that you will reach the peak of the 2nd rank “

“woahhh that much? “Lucius was stupefied

“Brat the difference between ranks is huge, a 2nd rank beast and third rank beast are like heavens and earth “

It is actually true the difference in ranks are big a first rank and a 2nd rank can’t be compared, there is a few exceptions when a true genius appear the rules of ranks can’t be applied on him.

Lucius was preparing to eat the cores when Leyak stopped him

“Hey I advise you to eat one today and the other tomorrow, these two cores will release too much energy inside your body and you will injure yourself, you can’t control all the flow of energy.

If Lucius was in the third rank then it will be not a problem a first rank cells are not developed enough to absorb two third rank energy cores.

“I will follow what you say master “Lucius didn’t doubt the words of a demon god

Lucius began by eating the purple rats’ cores, they were immediately refined by the spiritual energy of Leyak, a stream of energy left the cores and with the help of Lucius spiritual energy they were guided toward his cells, the cells began to devour the energy incessantly.

The cultivation level began to rise, he was previously at 40%, but now it began to rise at an alarming rate.

40%...50%...70%...90%...100% …………

The stream of energy erupted and his body began to undergone a change, he was breaking through to the next level.

His body trembled slightly, around it a small current of wind was swirling, it was like the first time he reached the first layer, all his body pores opened and from them polluted energy was pushed out, and his cells were transformed.

The next moment Lucius opened his eyes, on his face a happy expression.

“I reached the 2nd rank hahahaha I reached the 2nd rank!!!!! Uncle if you saw me now you would be shocked!!!!! “

For a normal person to reach the 2nd rank would take at least six months from the first rank to the second but Lucius in one month broke through.

“Kid, now try eating the third rank core “Leyak rushed Lucius to eat it.

Lucius then took one of the third rank cores and put it in his mouth, reaching the stomach, instantly the spiritual energy of Leyak shot through and wrapped it, after it was refined, clearly it was different than the previous cores, several streams of energy escaped the core resulting in it dissipating, Lucius was barely able to control the energy streams, that was like what Leyak said.

Directing it toward his cells, they began to absorb it, but it clearly took more time to assimilate, after completing the process Lucius evaluated his cultivation he was surprised , the cultivation was raised by forty percent ,if he take the second core then he will need another twenty percent to breakthrough to the third level he was excited .

“kid I must tell you that if you reach the peak of the fourth level , it will be a bottle neck , no matter how many cores you absorb your cultivation will not break through “

“What then how can i reach the next level?”

“I cannot tell you, you need to breakthrough on your own or it will impact your cultivation”

Leyak didn’t want to Lucius to blindly hunt and absorb magical cores so he warned him in advance that magical cores can raise cultivation true but can’t forcefully help you breakthrough.

The next day Lucius was sitting on the same rock cross legged and in his hand the other third rank core, he quickly ate it resulting in his cultivation reaching eighty percent.

“Twenty percent and I will reach the third rank, only twenty percent no more “

“Brat don’t be impatient the more you will be careful the more you will survive in this world “Leyak advised him.

“Now if you reach the third rank it will greatly help you in the future when enrolling in that school but you need to know one thing, mage cultivation is more difficult and not like the warrior way you can absorb infinite energy but all depends on your insights and intelligence that is what I know “

Leyak when he was in the heavenly realm battled many mage gods and he found them difficult to defeat than warriors gods , if it wasn’t for the fact that he was too strong , he would have perished long ago in the hands of a mage god .

“Okay we heve some more time in our hands after you reach third rank I will teach you a skill “

“Really!!!” Lucius was

“Yes it is the ideal time “

“yeahhh finally a skill , finally I can learn something “

“You brat it was me that helped you how can you speak like this “

(Oh no I said something that I shouldn’t, ahhh!! master will nag all day now) Lucius thought

“You kid I know what you are thinking don’t you know that I’m sealed in your mind that you think with “

“Eh? Sorry master!! “
