Death… And Me Chapter 211 - Late Stage

Chapter 211 - Late Stage

The night quickly arrived, and Rean left for the Cultivation Tower with Roan. There, Roan pa.s.sed him a bottle with ten white-colored pills that exuded the power of Light Element.

"Oh, so these are the Cultivation Estabiling Pills..."

Roan nodded.

"Yes. This should help us with the Cultivation Stabilization process. Let's start our breakthrough straight away."

Rean and Roan had already finished the Heaven's Might Water they acquired from Elder Buran. As expected, the results were not that impressive. Still, it would help them nonetheless. It's just that there was one thing Rean was puzzled about.

"I thought we got enough materials to make quite a lot of pills, no? After all, they are still only Foundation Establishment level ones."

Roan agreed with Rean.

"Yes. I do have more material to make at least twenty or so more pills. However, the more pills we take, the smaller will be their effects as our bodies will begin to reject them. Besides, we are far ahead in our cultivation schedule. It should be fine for us to keep the rest for after we enter the Peak Stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm."

Rean had to admit that Roan was right. At the moment, they are still eight months away from the Universal Restraint day. Since they are already making a breakthrough, there should be more than enough time to acc.u.mulate energy for the next one.

"Alright. Let's start then."

The twins then entered a room each and used the Energy Gathering Formations. As mentioned before, the Energy Gathering Formations of this place could also use Spirit Stones. That being said, Rean and Roan took out several Rank Two Spirit Stones to use during it.

'Sister Orb, is everything ready?'

[Yes. The Soul Gem System's cultivation manuals are flawless. As long as you follow it to the letter, your breakthrough should go quite smoothly. Not to mention that you already reached the limit of what you could do in the Middle Stage, so it should be even easier for you two.]

But it was then that Sister Orb asked.

[By the way... what about this Chick?]

At the moment, the Chick was swimming in the Yin Yang Water inside the Bathhouse. The bath was still a few months away from acc.u.mulating the necessary energy for another Bath Time. However, there was a problem. The Chick was absorbing the little bit of Yin Yang Energy that acc.u.mulated inside every time. Because of that, the bath wasn't able to acc.u.mulate energy at all.

Rean couldn't help but shrug his shoulders, though.

'Well, it keeps following me everywhere. If I leave it behind, the Chick will begin to go crazy. In the end, I could only bring it with me. The problem is that I can't have it following me into every corner, so I could only send it into the Dimensional Realm. It seems like this is the only place where the Chick doesn't cry when it is not with me.'

[But... What about the Yin Yang bath? It was supposed to be used by the two of you.]

Roan agreed with Sister Orb.

'That's why I told you to fry the chicken for us to eat. Since you already gave so many Spirit Stones to it, this chicken's meat is probably quite nutritive.'

Rean narrowed his eyes after hearing that.

'Can't you feel the connection with the Chick? You should be able to tell that it can also use Dark Element.'

'So what? It's still a chick. Then what? We will have a Chicken or a Roaster that can use the same element as us? What's the point in that?'

'Don't be ridiculous! Where have you ever seen a chick of this size? I only call it Chick because it looks like one while it's young. First, let's give it a few months. If it turns out that it can't do anything else, then we can think about what to do with it. Besides, it is not like losing just a single Yin Yang Bath will make that big of a difference.'

Roan sighed but didn't say anything else. It's just that he wasn't sure about the Chick's power either. Otherwise, he wouldn't have stayed silent.

With this issue out of the way, Rean and Roan finally started their breakthrough. The Spiritual Energy of their Rank Two Spirit Stones and the Heaven and Earth's one immediately surged in their direction. At the same time, Rean and Roan's hairs changed into white and dark colors.

Dark and Light Elements began to gather and enter their foundations. Thanks to the Light and Dark tenth pillar of each of their foundations, it was even easier to do the exchange. As mentioned before, Rean and Roan's manuals used both elements to help them progress in their cultivation.

The Spiritual Energy then entered the pool inside their Yin and Yang Dantians, quickly flooding it. After the pool reached its limit and couldn't take it anymore, the Twins used all the Spiritual Energy for the breakthrough.

Dark and Light Elements raged inside their dantians as the pool of Spiritual Energy increased in size. The Spirit Stones outside broke one after another, just to be replaced by new ones that were already prepared beforehand.

Finally, a final burst of Spiritual Energy came out of the twins' Dantians, sending everything around them flying. Fortunately, this was a room made so that the cultivators didn't need to be worried about it. The only things that were swept away were the Spirit Stones the twins were using, and nothing else.

Right after, the Spiritual Energy on the surroundings began to stabilize once more as their breakthrough into the Late Stage of the Foundation Establishment finished. Of course, just as predicted, the Spiritual Energy inside their Dantians was as chaotic as it could be.

"Phew... it is finally over. Alright, take one of the Cultivation Estabilizing Pills."

Finally, the pills they worked so hard for made their appearances. As soon as they swallowed the pills, a surge of Light Element, Dark Element, and Spiritual Energy entered their Dantians. However, they were several times more gentle than the ones present there at the moment.

Soon, the chaotic and gentle energies began to mix together into one. That process forced the chaotic energy into a calmer state, which helped Rean and Roan to stabilize their cultivations. Still, the effects of the pills didn't happen in a second. This process takes time to complete, which means that there is no use in taking more than one pill at once. Nonetheless, the effects were amazingly good.

"No wonder so many people look for these Cultivation Estabilizing Pills. This thing is simply too helpful."

Roan nodded.

"Indeed. If I'm not wrong, it will take two days to finish absorbing one Cultivation Estabilizing Pill. Once that happens, wait a day before taking the next one. Otherwise, your body will develop resistance against it much faster. Keep doing it until the ten pills are finally gone. By the end of it, our Cultivations should be good to go again. That will give us seven entire months to acc.u.mulate energy to enter the Peak Stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm."

With everything set up, Rean and Roan left the cultivation tower to do their own things. Rean went back to the Formations Hall and once again started his studies with the books left behind by Droman. The good thing was that he could both absorb the pill's effect while reading.

'Sigh... it will really take a long time to finish this pile. As for memorizing everything, I'm not sure if I can do it before Droman is back.'

As for Roan, he preferred to go back to Old Worm's hut to practice alchemy some more. He can now make Cultivation Estabilizing Pills, but he didn't want to stop there. Perhaps, he will have a need for other pills in the future. For example, Energy Gathering Pills at the Foundation Establishment Level would be very handy. Especially if he makes Light and Dark Elemental ones.

'Hum... let's first try to build a list of items that I could use to create those pills. I can use Hulian to put some missions up for the items I can't buy. If I can't come up with something, I'll go ask Old Worm about it.'

Just like that, the days began to pa.s.s in a flash. Soon, two months were gone.

During this time, Rean and Roan had completely stabilized their cultivations and began to cultivate again. Since Rean wasn't taking Metals as payment for the Steelworks sellings anymore, he got even more Spirit Stones. Obviously, they didn't lack any Spirit Stones for cultivation.

Rean pondered if he should begin to ask for Peak Quality Forging Materials. However, he quickly gave up the idea. The problem was that usually, one wouldn't be able to make them before the Core and Soul Fusion Realm. Rean wasn't even a Core Foundation Realm cultivator yet, let alone Core and Soul Fusion. He doesn't believe he will make a weapon at that level before he is at least a Late or Peak Stage Core Formation one. Of course, he only considered making attempts at those cultivations stage level because of how much bigger his Spiritual Pool is compared to others.

Today, Droman had finally found some time to go back to the Dalamu Sect. The installation of the cables for the communication system wasn't much of a problem. The issue was the new Router Formation. Even after two entire months, he still hasn't finished devising one. In the end, he decided that it might be better to consult Rean about it. Also, it was an excellent opportunity to test Rean's progress in formations.

'Perhaps he can even help me with this new formation somehow.'
