Unbeknownst to what was happening back in the secret chamber, Ace stood on the edge of an open cave with molten rocks on its edges. After following Cyrus's lead, he met with a dead end in the tunnel.
However, the little guy simply spit his flames and melted, opening a pathway for him that would've taken miners like Kai hundreds of years to open. Furthermore, Ace discovered that the Spirit Stones wouldn't burn to ashes with Cyrus's spirit fire; instead, they became more refined into small beads and dropped on the floor.
Moreover, these refined Spirit Stones seemed to carry even more Qi, so Ace didn't hesitate to collect them all while the little guy seemed to be more focused on whatever he was sensing.
Hence, they reached this place, and Ace was startled when he saw what was on the other side. His heart palpitated. It was a huge cavern filled with chunks of glowing Spirit Stones, even taller than Ace's height.
But what drew his attention was the small pond in the center of this cavern. It was filled with a pristine emerald liquid, and extremely dense Qi filled the place. Ace could feel something foreign stirring within the moment he breathed this Spirit Qi-filled air.
"That's it!" Cyrus cried in ecstasy as he looked towards the emerald liquid pond with a greedy glare, barely able to control his urge to fly over it.
Ace knew this had to be some kind of natural treasure since it was so deep in the spirit stone mines; he didn't expect he would find something like this just after awakening. He was also glad that he let Cyrus out.
"You really are my lucky start, little brat." Ace praised, and he was also elated. He stated, "Just as usual, you'll take half of what you found, and half will go to me!" "Alright!" Cyrus instantly agreed without hesitation.
Ace nodded in satisfaction before he headed towards the pond. The closer he got, the more his heart raced and his body rejuvenated. He really wanted to know what this liquid was, but the system was out of commission, and he didn't even know if he could use it right now.
"Master, can I have it?" At this moment, Ace suddenly heard Avos's hesitant voice.
Ace was startled and pleasantly surprised, "You're awake? Why weren't you reacting before when I tried to speak with you?"
"I don't know, master. For some reason, I suddenly fell into slumber when you entered that path, and only now have I suddenly regained my senses because of our connection when you found this Spirit Nectar!" Avos sounded uncertain.
Ace's eyes shimmered as he quickly asked, "Fell into slumber? It might have something to do with the primordial path of ascension. But since you're fine, it's all that matters. Anyway, Spirit Nectar? Do you know what this is?"
Ace felt relieved because Avos was originally from this place, which meant he wouldn't have to worry about being ignorant anymore. He appreciates all the help he can get in this foreign place.
"I have some knowledge about it. A drop of Spirit Nectar only formed in the heart of an Earth Spirit Vein after a hundred years. But not just any Earth Spirit Vein can form Spirit Nectar.
"You should know a grade-9 Qi stone lode or grade-9 Soul Crystal source would take the shape of auspicious beasts indicating good fortune of heaven on lands, right?" Avos asked.
Ace nodded as he learned about these beast veins from the system when he stole the beast veins from the so-called golden lands of the Skylar imperial family from one of the three mystic zones of Sky Heart Plains.
"Do you mean to say that this spirit nectar could only form in a beast vein? But you just call it an Earth Spirit Vein? Is this what you called a spirit-grade beast vein?" Ace questioned, wanting to know more about this place and its knowledge.
"You are right yet wrong at the same time, Master." Avos softly retorted, "I guess, since you're already ascending, it's about time I tell about the general knowledge of the Mortal Ascension Heaven!" Geett the latest novels at novel35.com
