Life After Prison

Chapter 2052
Sheila, Sofia, and Diane shared the same concern with Gilda. Severin looked at their anxious expression and offered a
reassuring smile. “I’m alright,” he asserted.
Severin’s meridians then roared to life. A strong, furnace–like heat surged through him and caused the air to crackle with energy.
It was a tangible display of his perfect–stage level seven supreme saint attainment, as his spiritual energy carried an awe–
inspiring and imposing aura.
Diane and the girls could finally let out a sigh of relief.
Severin asked, “How did the harvest go?”
The treasure mountain towered nearly a thousand meters high and had existed perhaps since time immemorial. Spiritual energy
was so abundant that one could almost feel it liquefying. Precious alchemical herbs grew like weeds on its slopes, and although
most were of a lower grade, those found halfway up the mountain had a rather impressive quality. They would not have attracted
that many practitioners if not.
Having secured the Fire Phoenix Snow Lotus that was used for eighth–grade pills, Severin felt obliged to check on his wives.
Diane beamed with pride as she revealed the contents of her spatial ring. “I was lucky to find about ten sixth–grade herbs,” she
said. With a wave of her hand, the stalks emitted a fragrance as they floated in front of them.
Sheila and the others followed suit and showcased what they gathered.
Severin smiled as he looked at their collection of sixth–grade high–rank herbs. Wildfire was a legendary royal paragon whose
presence could be felt even tens of thousands of years after his death. Even his abandoned cave held treasures galore.
Aside from the Sky–Soil Zenith and the promise of his combat techniques, the cave became a haven for spiritual energy, which
had almost turned into a liquid form after being isolated for tens of thousands of years. The rich environment nurtured many
alchemical herbs, some of which were several millennia old.
Although Severin was already a sixth–grade high–rank alchemist who was on the cusp of reaching seventh- grade, those sixth–
grade pills were still valuable finds. His companions‘ success filled him with warm satisfaction.

“Now that I have the Fire Phoenix Snow Lotus in my hands, we shall try to see if there are any further bounties we can capitalize
on,” Severin said with a glint in his eyes.
The ruins left behind did not host mere herbs. Were that the case, it would not have drawn the attention of all the major sects
and unaffiliated practitioners in Southsky. The allure of a royal paragon’s legacy, be it the Sky–Soil Zenith or other priceless
techniques, was a lure too irresistible for any sane practitioners.
Possessing such treasures could propel one to unimaginable heights and might even be the key to turning one into a royal
paragon.
Diane and the girls nodded in unison after hearing what Severin said. They all knew what was at stake.
After rallying the Grandiuno Sect disciples and informing them that they would soon be setting off, everyone spent a brief
moment to take a breather before resuming the journey under Severin’s guidance.
As they navigated closer to the core of the ruins, they encountered an abundance of low–grade herbs along the way. Another
radiantly glowing mountain soon came into Severin’s view. A formation guarded its peak, but it was clear that there were
treasures aplenty.
