Chapter 947: Underground Palace Formation? Something’s Not Right
"You are at the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection, and even though that doesn’t make you a strong cultivator in the Cultivation Realm, it’s already quite impressive for ordinary people. Surely, you can manage, right?"
Kye Stein explained with a bitter smile, "My mother was born weak, and complications arose during my birth, which, although she narrowly survived, resulted in chronic illness. She needs to take Jade Marrow Liquid regularly, or her health will quickly deteriorate until death."
"Jade Marrow Liquid may not be a top-tier treasure, but for someone of my abilities, gathering enough Jade Marrow Liquid remains a challenge. My talent is limited, so I cherish this opportunity to learn alchemy. As long as I become an Alchemist, even just earning fees from helping others with alchemy would be enough to buy plenty of Jade Marrow Liquid."
Upon hearing this, Carson Flores encouraged him, "As long as you step into the Golden Core, earning Spirit Stones to buy Jade Marrow Liquid won’t be an issue. Keep it up."
Kye Stein responded gratefully, "Brother Lin, thank you for your encouragement. I will definitely work hard."
Carson Flores asked, "You can’t leave for ten years—is your mother going to have enough Jade Marrow Liquid?"
Kye Stein chuckled, "Before coming here, I guessed that joining the Sect would mean I couldn’t return for a while, so I spent all the Spirit Stones I had saved over the years on Jade Marrow Liquid, enough for my mother to use for ten years. By the time I can leave after ten years, I’ll surely have saved a considerable amount of Spirit Stones or Jade Marrow Liquid."
Carson Flores looked at Kye Stein, whose face was filled with longing and anticipation, and felt a complex emotion stir within him.
The Blood Light he had seen earlier made Carson believe increasingly that the Three Devil Sect and the massacre at Konyu City couldn’t be unconnected. At such a crucial moment, their aggressive recruitment of capable disciples only added to their suspiciousness.
He hoped his suspicions were unfounded, but if not, Kye Stein’s expectations might be dashed, and whether he could survive to return was another matter altogether.
The middle-aged man, Corbin Woolery, appeared again, holding a thick roster, "The recruitment of disciples is now complete. Congratulations on successfully joining the Three Devil Sect and becoming one of us."
