My Cultivation System

Chapter 233 - A Blessing In Disguise?



Henrick took the storage ring from the old man without any hesitation before closing the door and sat on the bed to check the cultivation resources in the storage ring.

'Nice. With these cultivation resources, I can fill up to 19 energy pillars in the mind sea and with the help of the energy pills, I can fill the last energy pillar.'

​​

Soon, he planned his cultivation process and thought, 'I have to enter the energy transformation realm before the next bug warrior invasion happened.'

Earlier, Henrick thought of searching for the bug warriors; however, by going alone, he would be in danger.

But, if the bug invasion happens, he would have army support and he could kill as many bug warriors as possible in a war.

Moreover, the only reason he got many cultivation resources from the city master Valen was that the more powerful Henrick was, the higher their chances will be.

Even though Henrick was only level 6 energy condensation realm, his battle prowess was equivalent to level 5 energy transformation and if someone supported him, he would even kill peak energy transformation with his powerful 'Demon claw'.

So, if Henrick's cultivation realm increased, he even killed level 1 master realm bug warriors which will help his city a lot.

So, there was no hesitation in city master Valen when giving all the fire-related cultivation resources to Henrick.

'I have to help Master Valen kill as many bug warriors as possible.'

His motivation to kill the bug warriors increased to another level. There are various rewards for him in killing the bug warriors.

One, he would get crude souls.

Two, reputation points.

Three, he could repay master Valen for his valuable cultivation resources.

Four, his fighting style will be refined through battles like these.

'Let's start with Darkfire fruit.'

Soon, he took out a blackish red-coloured fruit from the storage ring and ate.

'Swoosh'

As soon as he ate it, the pure fire energy gushed into his dantian.

'Fill'

Without any hesitation, he used the underworld fire to consume the entire fire energy inside his dantian before urging it to enter his mind sea to fill one of his pillars.

Because of the special flame, it only took him a few seconds to empty the pure internal fire energy from his dantian; however, once he emptied it, it was once again filled with pure internal fire energy. 

Henrick didn't slack for the next couple of hours as he consumed one of the fire-related cultivation resources from the storage ring and with the help of his special flame, he filled his energy pillars one by one at his own pace.

…..

In the main hall,

"Master Valen, I didn't like it when you gave the commander position to some unknown young man who appeared out of nowhere."

One of the senior commanders of the Valen city expressed his displeasure to the master Valen.

Even though he was a commander, Master Valen valued this middle-aged man a lot because he was with him from the beginning and even when he offered him a retirement to settle in the city to start a family of his own, the senior commander rejected it.

At that time, he said, "I will live as a commander and die as a commander."

For his commander is a position that is given to someone who values the Valen city and understands how the Valen city works.

However, Master Valen didn't enquire anything about the young man and casually gave the commander position along with some good fire-related cultivation resources making him a little displeased.

Also, whenever he was displeased with Master Valen, he would say it to Master Valen himself.

"Haha….Zaid. There is something in that young man."

Hearing those words, Master Valen laughed out loud as he continued, "Just wait and see. As long as he breakthrough to the energy transformation, his battle prowess will be equivalent to peak energy transformation realm and he could even kill level 1 master realm bug warriors."

Only a peak grandmaster realm cultivator could invade other worlds and no immortals will be allowed to enter other worlds unless they have no intentions of harming the world.

As for the grandmaster realm and below, realm cultivators will be allowed under the suppression of the world and the inhabitants had to save themselves.

By doing so, it will make all the inhabitants united to fight the otherworldly forces and if they fail to unite, then the world will be destroyed before taking away all the cultivational resources of the world.

  "I know."

How can the senior commander who fought for his entire life not notice the spark in Henrick?

However, he felt Master Valen was keeping so many hopes on him.

"For the time we constructed this city, we only fought the beast hordes and not some humanoid beings. So, we need to increase our army power."

Suddenly, Master Valen's face became serious as he asked Zaid, "So, did you give all the cultivational resources in the treasure to our men? Also, inform them that as long as we survive this invasion, they can start their own family in the city."

For many soldiers retiring from the army and creating a family for themselves is the greatest achievement. Many of them had already come from such families and they wanted to follow in the footsteps of their fathers and grandfathers to create their own family.

However, they served in the army for more than 10 years before accumulating even credits to create their own family; however, most of the soldiers have the service of 5-6 years and a very few have only joined the army a couple of years back. 

After creating a family, they can still maintain their military rank but most of the soldiers would cross their prime age to marry which was 50 years; however, the current batch of the soldiers can maintain their military rank and at the same time develop their family.

Soon, the news was announced to the 1000 men army who were greatly excited and thought they would try their best to cross this ordeal.

"The most disadvantageous thing for us right now is our army. Since one city tried to invade other cities, we never thought of increasing our army because we only faced the beast tide and 1000 strong men were more than enough; however, this otherworldly beings invasion is completely different compared to the beast hordes."

Master Valen bitterly shook his head when he thought about his city's army.

In the first wave of invasion, there were more than 10000 bug warriors and in the coming invasions, there will be more bug warriors. So, whenever he thought about it, Master Valen's heartache because it is almost impossible for his city to survive if there were more than 50000 bug warriors trying to invade his city.

"Master Valen, no need to worry about it. We are going to survive this invasion."

Zaid spoke in a confident tone; however, deep inside his heart, he knew it was impossible to survive if such an army invades the city.

"Master...master."

While they were discussing some more things and strategies, an old man ran into the main hall with some shining orbs in his head.

"What happened?"

Since they were not talking about any secrets and there was a rule where anyone can enter the main when there is something urgent.

So, when they saw the old man, Master Valen and Zaid asked the old man at the same time with curious looks on their face while looking at the shining orbs in his hands.

"From the master realm bug warriors, we found these two energy orbs which was filled with some mysterious energy. So, I thought of bringing them to you to see them."

While saying that, he gave one shining orb to each of them.

"Th..this is..."

Both Master Valen and Zaid were shocked when they found out what the shining energy orbs were.

"Did you check the other corpses too?"

However, they suppressed their shock and asked the old man about the other corpses.

"Yes, we found a similar thing in each bug warrior but they were much smaller and they were not shining like these two orbs."

The old man replied while taking out two less shining orbs which were smaller than the earlier two orbs.

"So, how many of these orbs did you collect?"

Soon, Master Valen asked about the orbs.

"As long as the bug warrior has the strength of energy transformation realm, they have one shining orb inside them. So, in total, we have around 6000 of these orbs."

The old man informed about the total number of shining orbs his team has collected.

"Good...good."

Master Valen nodded his head and ordered the old man, "Bring all the orbs to the training grounds."

"Yes, Master Valen."

That old man nodded his head and left the main hall.

"Zaid, gather everyone to the training ground."

After the old man left the main hall, Master Valen ordered Zaid with a serious look on his face.

"With these orbs, we can defend ourselves from the coming invasions. I will hurry up and gather everyone."

Zaid also nodded his head and left the main hall to gather the soldiers of the city.

'This is indeed a blessing in disguise.  As long as we kill them, we can increase our strengths.'

'Looks like this is my opportunity to break through to the grandmaster realm.'

Looking at the silhouette of his senior commander, Master Valen revealed a slight smile on his face after a long time today.
