Chapter 1994
Myles was training in seclusion when Severin’s swordwill cut through the fog in the Sword Tomb and rose
into the sky. He himself was already a level nine paragon, and he had also awakened the heptagold swordwill, which had the
sharpest attributes. He could count on one hand the opponent that could win
against him in the same realm!
Even so, when he felt Severin’s chaotic swordwill, the heptagold swordwill in his body actually made a surrendering gesture,
which surprised him. At his strength, even sword cultivators in the royal paragon
realm would not be able to suppress his swordwill, let alone cultivators in the same realm, and yet a
supreme saint like Severin was able to do it!
Therefore, Myles immediately concluded that the swordwill Severin had awakened must be extremely
powerful, giving rise to the decision wanting to hire him as a sword instructor.
“How about it? I’m willing to pay more if it’s not enough!” said Myles quickly when Severin remained silent
for a long while.
Severin shook his head. To be honest, Severin was quite excited about the salary given by Myles. He did
not really care about the spiritual stones since it was impossible for an alchemist like him to lack spiritual
stones.
Even the seventh–grade alchemical pill was not very attractive in his opinion. Although Severin was only a
sixth–grade high–rank alchemist and was still far away from being a seventh–grade alchemist, he knew he
could easily level up to a seventh–grade alchemist in a short time after harvesting the alchemy
Inheritance in Alchemy Tower. He could then easily refine as many seventh–grade elixirs as he wanted.
What really attracted him the most was the sky–soil energy. The sky–soil energy was one of the vital energies of heaven and
earth above the Nine Heavens. In other words, it was a veritable precious treasure, and played a valuable role in refining
alchemical pills or cultivating.
The Sky–Soil Heptagold Sword Energy Severin was cultivating required a large amount of sky–soil energy to upgrade it to the
realm of Great Success. By then, he would be able to strike down a ten thousand mile high mountain with just one blow of his
sword!
There were only two ways to obtain sky–soil energy. The first one was to collect it personally from the air above the Nine
Heavens, but this method was too dangerous for Severin. The strong wind blowing from the Nine Heavens was enough to cut
through the space and annihilate the all four elements of earth,
water, wind and fire.
It was not something that a cultivator in the supreme saint realm like him could easily fight against. He needed to at least be in
the high level paragon to come away from the harvest safe and sound.
The other method was to enter the Cave Heaven secret realms. Those Cave Heaven secret realms contained treasures left over
from ancient times, so naturally there would be sky–soil energy among them.
Previously, Severin thought that after the sect competition was over, he would go to several secret
realms in Southsky to look for sky–soil energy. However, after hearing Myles‘ proposal, he became a little tempted to take him up
on his offer. He would be able to shorten the time it would take him to reach Great Success if he could get some sky–soil energy.
Besides, Myles was pretty good to him. Last time he was at Alchemy Tower plaza, he gave him two balls of heptagold energy as
a gift.
After Severin pondered for a moment, he nodded towards Myles who was waiting for his reply and said, I’m not really that
talented. In fact, my talent in swordsmanship is limited. Please do give me some advice if you think I’m not doing my job as a
sword instructor well.”
