Chapter 188: 188

It was nothing more than a Peak-Level Earth Grade, Energy Condensation Cultivation Manual . In a few months or years, it would turn obsolete for him but he couldn't help but gulp in the presence of it .

"A Dual Cultivation Manual . . . " Davis muttered as he read the name of the manual .

Yin-Yang Merit Sutra . . .

In the Second Layer, there were Earth Grade Dual Cultivation Manuals but all of them were only useful for plucking cultivation, not for cultivating together .

As for the latter, only a few Mortal Grade Manuals were found giving out that method .

Unfortunately, this made dual cultivation seem evil in the eyes of people of the Grand Sea Continent, which made it not suitable for development .

This was why he didn't see any people who dual cultivated in the Grand Sea Continent .

'If only the path of Dual Cultivation moved in the right direction . . . ' Davis sighed as dual cultivation techniques were scarce and looked down upon . He found it quite lamentable that they didn't move in the right direction .

That said, his eyes were not fast but slowly moving, studying the details of the shady yet obscene art .

Time passed . . .

A few minutes later, he looked up and clapped as he shook his head, "Marvelous . . . "

"But how do I get Evelynn to read this?" He blurted out but could imagine the blush creeping up on her face . He chuckled as he kept it inside .

"Alright, we'll see about that when the time comes . . . Now . . . "

His senses moved to another table which had cultivation techniques . He looked at them for quite a while but couldn't find anything useful .

There were a total of 20 million purple coins, plenty of Earth Grade swords and pills, even a few Sky Grade ones .

"This guy doesn't have spears? A pity . . . "

Transferring all of his possessions to the High-Level Sky Grade Spatial Ring, he threw the previous ring inside it as well .

As for all the communication crystals, he kept them all in one of his low-grade spatial rings he kept for backup purposes .

Suddenly, he realised that if he could've taken the spatial rings from the geniuses he killed in the spatial tunnel, he would've been ultra-rich by now .

'Well, I bet the people behind me took those and a huge fight broke out for it . . . Maybe there might be even casualties . . . ' He pondered for a second and the image of a woman clad in red flashed past his mind . He then shrugged and got out of the bed .

He disguised himself as someone else and left Elmer Town .

. . . . .

Half a day later, he arrived at the Cloud Spring Mercenaries Headquarters .

He straight away went to the Mission Hall and told that he completed the mission .

To his surprise, the lady nodded her head and handed over a badge which looked like the symbol on his uniform .

"How did you know I completed the mission? Aren't you afraid that I'm lying?" Davis asked as he attached the badge on his chest .

The receptionist lady gently laughed before saying in a mysterious manner, "We have our means . . . "

"I see, Captain Gyrus must have told you . . . " Davis smiled as he said .

"How did y . . . !" The lady went wide-eyed and almost blurted out before she closed her mouth . Though it was useless now since the cat's out of the bag .

He then grinned as he shook his head, 'This lady must've been used to gossiping . . . '

Suddenly, a voice sounded from behind him, "Young man, how did you find me?"

Davis turned and looked at him as he smiled again, "I didn't . . . "

Gyrus's eyes frowned in confusion, "Then how . . . "

"Because from time to time I felt someone gazing at me without any hostile intent behind it . "

"I see . . . you must have sharp senses for that but how did you figure out that it was me?"

"That was just a guess, and her reaction confirmed my guess . . . " He calmly stated .

"So I gave myself out by walking in here . . . huh? For some reason, I feel defeated . . . " Gyrus sighed before he continued, "It must've been at that time, right?"

"Yes, you made yourself a suspect the moment you came to call Lucas and Lucia back . "

"I thought so . . . " Gyrus nodded his head and just when he was about to open his mouth . . .

"I know that you're following orders, but I don't find it amusing to be monitored . You saw what happened to Young Master Jackson, right?"

"Yes . . . "

"That could happen to me one day and I don't appreciate that clearly, meaning . . . "

"Alright, I'll inform our leader about this . . . " Gyrus clasped his hands and bowed slightly before he made his leave .

Davis stood there pondering for a while before he went back to his room . He didn't care if his disguise as a child was blown or seen through .

The receptionist lady was already on the verge of crying but later sighed in relief as no one came to bother her back .

. . .

As soon as he set foot inside his room, he sat on the bed in the lotus position .

"Time to breakthrough . . . " He uttered and revolved the energy in his meridians to the dantian .

His Energy Condensation Cultivation which was halted for a long time showed some signs of improvement .

In one hand, he took out a spirit stone and started absorbing the energy out of it into his dantian .

His dantian continued to be filled with energy .

One stone, two stones, three stones, five stones, ten stones, twenty stones and twenty-five stones .

Davis grit his teeth in pain . His dantian felt like it could explode at any moment .

'This is it! I have to combine all the energy into a core!'

There were many methods that one could use to evolve their core but what Davis used was one of the most basic yet simplest method in the book .

At this point, he felt that if he was right in his decision because of the scarcity of spirit stones . He only had a few dozen left .

'No, regret at this point will only result in backlash!' Thinking so, he made up his mind but at the last moment, danger and inspiration, both struck him .

The energy he trapped in his dantian, leaked and entered back into the meridians .

He turned aghast, if this continued, then he would surely ruin his own meridians, even possibly crippling himself .

Using his wits, he brought five more spirit stones and absorbed them, flooding his meridians .

Veins erupted, his muscles bulged and his expression incredibly pale yet he grit his fists tightly .

'It's fine! My body can handle this!' He chanted in his mind again and again as the pain increased .
