BXBX NOVEL Chapter 840 - Visiting The Seafloor
"Although the Dark Fae Clan and Darlene all practice this standard method, this only continues until I find a more suitable method for everyone to switch over."
"Body Cultivation is a path only for the diligent. Even if you have a good physique for Body Cultivation, it doesn\'t mean anything if you cannot endure the pain. Thus, diligence is the only real talent needed in Body Cultivation."
Of course, this is only true when cultivation resource for Body Cultivation is not a problem.
After Leon finished running Aria through the general overview on Body Cultivation, he shifted his attention to the Dark Fae Clan.
"You did well to guard this place. We will set up a camp and cultivate here. You may relax until I set up another medicine bath for all of you," he stated to them.
"Yes, my Lord!" Nyfarella and her clan members answered.
Fortunately, there was plenty of place behind the rock walls.
After Leon set up the medicine bath, he restocked on their reserves of Tier-3 Healing Water with the Tier-7 Golden Grail.
Alas, he had to reset the timer on the Golden Grail again.
In order not to rely on the Tier-7 Golden Grail again until he finishes reviewing all its functions, he used the nearby river water and filled the medicine bath entirely in Tier-3 Healing Water.
"Do you still have enough demon core for your cultivation?" he asked Nyfarella shortly after.
"Yes, my Lord!" Nyfarella quickly answered with a nod before adding further, "The remaining demon cores will last us for a while, but it is also true that it\'s less than half of what we had at the start."
"Less than half?" Leon muttered with a frown.
To think that more than half of the hundreds of Lesser and Great Demon-level demon cores he obtained was only enough to get the Dark Fae Clan halfway through the Primordial Body Tempering Realm.
The Dark Fae Clan\'s conversion of dark energy into fleshly strength was also terrible.
But then again, dark energy wasn\'t supposed to be used for tempering the fleshly body; there were other elements more suited for tempering the fleshly body.
Of course, True Grandmist Energy tops the list, but compared to dark energy, there were better alternatives like fire and lightning.
"I\'m sorry we failed to live up to your expectation, my Lord."
Nyfarella lowered her head in apology, thinking Leon was disappointed with the Dark Fae Clan\'s lack of progress despite their high consumption of demon core energy.
"No need to apologize. It was my mistake to give you the wrong approach. I will revise the Dark Fae Clan\'s cultivation later. But for now, start forging your bones with the demon cores\' energy instead," Leon stated.
"Yes, my Lord!" Nyfarella complied.
The Dark Fae Clan had an affinity with darkness, so how could dark energy produce good results in their fleshly tempering when it does little harm to their body?
The Dark Fae Clan\'s progress was astonishing if Leon thought about it.
\'If they can reach the minimum of Rank 5 Body Tempering, how far can they go if they were to temper their bodies in fire or lightning instead?\' he wondered.
Perhaps the Dark Fae Clan actually has great talents for Body Cultivation.
After settling the dark faes\' matter, Leon returned to inform Aria and Darlene of his intention to leave again.
"I\'m going to head over to the Bone Sea alone for a short while. Help me take care of things here for me. If anything big happens, alert the realm spirit, and I will come back immediately."
"Mmm, I will."
Aria nodded obediently, knowing she wouldn\'t be able to follow him into the depths of the Bone Sea with her fragile body.
Leon smiled at her understanding before glancing at Darlene.
"I will stay and cultivate," Darlene replied before he could say anything.
She knew he wasn\'t planning to take anyone along on his trip, but it was also fine with her; she wanted to further her Spatial Law\'s comprehension.
"Alright," Leon nodded with a smile before saying, "Then, I\'ll be off."
"Mm, be careful."
"I will."
Shortly after promising them, Leon instructed the realm spirit to teleport him to the bottom of the Bone Sea.
Swoosh!
Layers of spatial energy wrapped around his body once more, and before long, his figure disappeared from Aria and Darlene\'s sight in the blink of an eye.
…
In the next moment, his body quickly plunged into the bottommost depths of the Bone Sea, and an enormous pressure quickly bore down on his body and organs.
However, his outer and inner defenses could withstand the water pressure without a problem.
More importantly, he discovered the enormity of the Peak Arch Demon-level sea monsters at the bottom of Bone Sea.
The glowing vegetation in the region revealed all of their enormous figures as clearly as daytime.
\'Hm? It seems like these Peak Arch Demon-level sea monsters are not interested in me,\' Leon quickly noticed.
He felt a bit of relief at the discovery.
Given his present strength, he was far from being a match for these behemoths, which may very well be wielding strengths nearing the 100-million jin mark.
However, he was not without his trump cards if he had to deal with them.
\'How particular… Why aren\'t they interested in me? Am I too small to fill their stomach? Given their strength and age, they should have developed their spiritual intelligence… but that doesn\'t seem to be the case…\'
While studying the Peak Arch Demon-level Sea Monster, he held his breath underwater.
Although he was also curious about their bloodline and how his cultivation could benefit from them, he had no intention of attacking the behemoths.
\'It\'s better not to rile the hornet\'s nest for now…\' he decided.
Just the Peak Arch Demon-level Sea Monsters aren\'t hostile; it didn\'t mean that they\'ll stay docile if he attacked them.
Shortly after, Leon shifted his attention to the spirit herbs growing on the seafloor.
The abundant lifeforce in the region also caught his attention.
