Death… And Me

Chapter 737 - Breakthroughs


Chapter 737 - Breakthroughs

Rean, Roan, and Kentucky decided to give it a try and sat by the totem's side. Sure enough, because their cultivation used Yang Energy, the totem made things easier for them. After a while, Rean could not help but say, "I guess our cultivation is around 5% or so faster now that part of the Yang Energy is being gathered by the totem." It didn't seem like much. But over time, this amount would keep accumulating.

Roan and Kentucky nodded in agreement. "Indeed, it's very good."

Celis was the only one who didn't seem to care, so that caught the attention of Rean's group as one of them asked, "Celis, don't you need Yang Energy?"

Celis laughed out loud after hearing that, responding with, "Hahaha! Of course I do! However, my roots are able to penetrate the earth and reach the magma below. Unlike flesh and blood beings like you, that impure Yang Energy is not toxic for me. Don't underestimate a World Swallowing Cedar."

Of course, that was beneficial for Rean's group since Celis's cultivation also pulled their own. "That's good, then."

In the end, Rean asked Kentucky to move the totem and put it right in the middle of where the kids lived. That way, the kids who needed Yang Energy for cultivation would benefit from it. One must remember that Rean obtained a lot of cultivation manuals back in the Soul Rulers' headquarters. Naturally, there was no lack of Yang and Yin type cultivation manuals for all mainstream elemental affinities. Roan then distributed them after revising the manuals for humans to use.

As for the kids who didn't need Yang Energy, the totem wasn't able to gather enough to make that much of a difference. Not to mention that Yang complemented Yin, so it helped Yin Energy users, even if just a little.

After that, Rean built a building with Kentucky's help around the totem before drawing a formation below. That way, the Yang Energy gathered by it, which was completely devoid of impurities, wouldn't escape the range of the kids' living place. Well, that building also had rooms reserved for Rean and Roan. Kentucky also benefited from it since the building was constructed inside Celis's area.

The days passed by in a flash, and the search for the attackers of the tribes continued. Unfortunately, over three months had gone by, and no clues were obtained regarding Rean and Roan, who were currently focused on cultivating and training their side occupations.

During this time, Malo's group had finally reached the peak of the Energy Gathering Realm and were ready to enter the Foundation Establishment Realm. They weren't the only ones, though. At least half of the Purple Color Aptitude Kids had similar cultivation speeds. Some even showed great talent and patience for the art of cultivation.

Roan, knowing that rushing things wasn't beneficial for their foundations, told them to stay at the peak of the Energy Gathering Realm. He also did that so that he could accompany everyone's breakthrough at the same time. That way, those kids and the adults observing them would be able to explain to others who reached that level in the future.

Eventually, a total of 50 kids had reached the peak of the Energy Gathering Realm. Almost half of them, 23 in total, had Purple Color Aptitude. The others were both Red Color or Blue Color. Obviously, those with Blue Color Aptitude were the least present, with just two girls reaching that level with that aptitude. As one could imagine, those two girls with Blue Color Aptitude were none other than Liza and Luna. They had seen part of Rean and Roan's memories, which had been of great help for their own training.

As for the other Purple Color and Red Color kids, they were too young to understand the concept of cultivation or didn't have the necessary patience. After all, asking kids to stay put and absorb energy was anything but easy. Many of them slacked on purpose, and Roan wouldn't keep an eye on the kids 100% of the time. Nevertheless, because Roan had set up a target for each cultivating kid to achieve, none of them were truly falling behind. Or, to be more specific, they wouldn't dare to fall behind since Roan's punishments were anything but gentle.

Roan then gathered those kids and began to explain how breaking through the Foundation Establishment Realm worked. It was already described in their cultivation manuals. In any case, many of them still had several doubts. Roan was very patient, spending several hours with those kids.

Rean didn't help since there was no need for it at this level of cultivation. He just cultivated nearby in case something happened. After all, the one responsible for cultivation issues was Roan, not him. Roan knew that as well, so he only asked for Rean's help when there was an actual need for it.

"Are there any more questions?" Roan asked as he looked at the group of kids. Burio's group was also there, just listening to the explanations. "Good! Malo, come forward. You're the oldest kid between them all, so you go first to set an example."

Malo was twelve years old when he arrived in the valley, but he was the first to turn thirteen after these past few months.

Malo nodded and sat with his back turned to Roan. After that, he took his cultivation manual before deeply breathing. Soon, he began the process of breaking through into the Foundation Establishment Realm. The pillars were created inside his Dantian as his Spiritual Pool increased in size. Everything was going as smoothly as it could be.

Roan looked at that and nodded with satisfaction. 'As expected of a Purple Color Talent. Everything seems so simple for them.'

Fortunately, there was no need for the consumption of Spirit Stones since the Spiritual Energy in the valley was equivalent to Rank Three ones. That was far more than enough for such a level of cultivation.

Eventually, a burst of Spiritual Energy came out of Malo's Dantian, spreading outwards as the other kids looked at him.

"Not bad," Roan said. Naturally, Malo came to understand that receiving praise from Roan was worth more than gold, so he was very happy, replying with, "Thank you, Senior Roan.

Roan slightly nodded as he said, "You created nine pillars, which is the limit of the Foundation Establishment Realm. You can head down now. Focus on calming your foundation down for the next week or two."

Roan then looked at the other kids after that and said, "You don't need to create nine pillars like him. As long as you get at least seven, that's enough. Now, next!"

And just like that, one kid after another moved forward to begin their breakthroughs, feeling excited after Malo's success.
