Chapter 147  Training Resources, Balor\'s Shock

Arthur extended his hand which contained a Spatial Ring towards Balor, a small smile playing on his lips. "Balor, I have something for you. This will help with you cultivation."

Balor\'s eyes widened with anticipation as he accepted the spatial ring from Arthur with slightly trembling hands.

\'This is really a Spatial Ring!\' Balor thought as he looked at the magnificent workpiece in his hands.

Balor had only heard of Spatial Rings in the past and had never seen one in his life before. And now his Master just casually gifted him one.

\'It\'s almost like a dream,\' Balor thought.

"You can bind the spatial ring with a drop of your blood and then you can access the space within. The ring is engraved with a special runic array that prevents the soul power perception of powerhouses from penetrating it. It also has a defense function that creates a shield that can defend you from the power of an Early Stage Martial Emperor Realm cultivator\'s full powered attack."

Arthur spoke casually but his words caused a wave of shock in Balor\'s heart. This shock quickly changed to a slight feeling of warmness as Balor felt a bit emotional, thinking to himself.

\'No one had showed me such care before except my late parents.\'

At this point Balor had fully accepted his role and position as Arthur\'s disciple. Internally, he became determined to fulfill the wishes of the one who had bestowed him with such favour.

Balor nodded and gave a ninety-degree bow to Arthur. It was his way of expressing his thanks without saying anything.

Arthur merely waved his hand, "It\'s nothing, quickly bind the ring and see what\'s inside."

Balor saw Arthur\'s smile and knew immediately that there were more surprises waiting for him.

He quickly consented and pricked his finger with a small knife he had with him, letting a drop of his blood fall on the ring.

Immediately the blood touched the ring, it glowed with many tiny runes and calmed down.

Balor immediately felt a connection between him and the ring. It\'s surface adorned with intricate engravings. As he opened it, his breath caught in his throat, making Arthur smile at his expression.

\'Aye aye, I feel like a rich young master showing of before a country bumpkin.\' Arthur chuckled inwardly.

Countless resources lay within, including Spirit Crystals, High-Grade Pills for cultivation, and three Martial Arts Technique Manuals.

Balor\'s eyes glowed with astonishment, \'Those are all peak-grade spirit crystals!\'

That wasn\'t all, when Balor looked at the heaps of spirit crystals within the spatial ring he estimated that at least there were hundreds of thousands of them.

\'Even my former clan at its peak didn\'t have even one percent of what I am seeing here. I mean these are peak-grade spirit crystals for heaven\'s sake!\'

And then Balor checked the pills and saw that they had a certain glow to them. Although he was not very knowledgeable about Alchemy he could also tell that these were very rare pills that most may never have access to in there entire lives and yet there were thousands of such pills before him.

And if that wasn\'t enough the three martial arts technique manuals was what broke the weak camel\'s back.

\'Earth... Earth Rank Techniques!\'

"Master... This... It\'s too much," Balor stammered, his voice filled with awe.

Arthur chuckled, "These are essential tools to aid you on your path, Balor. The Spirit Crystals will enhance your cultivation, and the High-Grade Pills will accelerate your progress. As for the Technique Manuals, two of them entail high-grade sword techniques, and the third is a body movement technique."

"I know that you will face certain difficulties in learning them but I will be guiding you from time to time, besides I have also included a detailed explanation of my comprehension of these techniques. They will serve you well in your training."

Balor\'s heart swelled with gratitude as he realized the magnitude of Arthur\'s gift. "Master, this disciple is grateful and I promise to give it my all to fulfill your wishes!"

Arthur\'s expression nodded, pleased with Balor\'s attitude.

"The pills were concocted by my own hands, using rare and potent ingredients. As for the manuals, they were acquired myself. I seek only the best, Balor."

Overwhelmed by the generosity and faith bestowed upon him, Balor bowed deeply. "I am grateful, Master. I will make sure to make the most of these resources and become a worthy disciple."

Arthur placed a hand on Balor\'s shoulder, his eyes filled with confidence.

"I have no doubt that you will, Balor. After all the one who is your Master is none other than me. You will understand what that means in the future. Now, let me explain your training schedule."

Balor listened attentively as Arthur outlined the rigorous routine he was to follow, emphasizing the importance of discipline and dedication.

He explained the significance of cultivating both the Sword Dao and the Speed Dao, as well as the importance of developing mental fortitude.

After finishing his instructions, Arthur led Balor to one of the training rooms in his cultivation cave.

With Cora\'s help, he had personally installed a high-grade array that would increase the essence energy in the room to a rarefied level, condensing it into mist. This unique environment would greatly enhance Balor\'s cultivation.

As Balor stepped into the training room, he was struck by its ethereal atmosphere.

The mist enveloped him, carrying a potent energy that seemed to invigorate his entire being. A sense of anticipation and excitement coursed through his veins.

"This... This is incredible," Balor murmured, his voice filled with wonder.

He had never heard of a cultivation abode where the essence energy is so much that it is condensed into mist.

Balor doubted that this was the work of the Heavenly Sword Sect.

\'This has to be Master\'s doing!\' he concluded.

Arthur\'s figure was becoming more and more mysterious in Balor\'s heart.

Arthur nodded, his eyes shining with pride. "Indeed, Balor. This array is a testament to my commitment to your growth. Embrace this opportunity and give it your all."

Without wasting another moment, Balor found a comfortable spot and settled into a cross-legged position.

He closed his eyes, focusing his mind and directing his attention inward. Following Arthur\'s instructions, he began to cultivate, his body and spirit immersed in the powerful essence energy surrounding him.

As Balor delved into his cultivation, Arthur watched him for a moment, his gaze filled with confidence.

He knew that Balor had the potential to exceed his own expectations, and he believed in his disciple\'s ability to rise above his perceived limitations.

Satisfied with Balor\'s progress, Arthur quietly left the training room, making his way back to his own quarters.

Once inside, he felt a pull towards the "Serene Palace Painting," a space that existed beyond the confines of the physical world.

With a mere thought, Arthur disappeared from his spot, reappearing within the grand halls of the majestic palace.

He walked through the corridors, his mind filled with thoughts of Cora.

"Where is Cora?" he wondered silently.

Using his soul power, Arthur scanned the area, searching for her presence within the mansion. However, he couldn\'t sense her nearby.

Curiosity piqued, Arthur extended his soul power further, reaching out beyond the mansion\'s boundaries. There, he discovered Cora\'s faint spiritual signature, meditating above a tranquil lake in a distant location. A smile tugged at the corners of his lips.

"Ah, she seeks solace in nature," Arthur mused. "Although she is my servant, I don\'t plan on enslaving her to the confines of this mansion alone."

Knowing that Cora needed her space and freedom, Arthur decided to contact her later, respecting her need for privacy. With a sense of contentment, he continued his stroll through the palace, eventually arriving at his own room.

Entering the chamber, Arthur found himself in a serene and peaceful atmosphere. The room was adorned with exquisite decorations, reflecting his refined taste and appreciation for beauty. A large window overlooked a picturesque garden, and the gentle rustling of leaves created a soothing melody.

Taking a deep breath, Arthur settled into a comfortable position on a cushioned mat. Closing his eyes, he allowed his consciousness to sink deep into the depths of his soul, where the four glowing gems

—the Gem of Time, Gem of Soul, Gem of Space, and Gem of Fate—

resided.

Within this inner realm, Arthur\'s thoughts turned to the Nine Heavens Palace—the pinnacle of Artifacts he had yet to awaken fully. The time had come to fully heal it and awaken it with the power of the gems.

As he thought this he drew the palace to appear before him. It was shrunk down to a palm-sized palace, silently floating above Arthur\'s hand.

And with determination in his heart, Arthur focused his consciousness on the gems, channeling his energy towards awakening the dormant palace. The gems shimmered and pulsed with vibrant energy, responding to his will.

As the process commenced, Arthur could feel a surge of power flowing into the palace and slowly eradicating the cracks on it.

He could also now slightly feel the spiritual signature of the slumbering Artifact\'s Spirit.

Arthur relentless continued to infuse the power of the gems into the palace and he did this for a long time, but still, the palace did not awaken.

But he could feel that the spiritual signature of the palace\'s artifact spirit had been strengthened much more than before.

Arthur wanted to continue but he began to feel a strain and he knew he had reached his limit for now and he needed to recuperate.

But Arthur was confident.

"It won\'t be long now before your reawakening my friend."

Feeling a renewed sense of purpose, Arthur rose from his meditative position. He knew that unlocking the full potential of the Nine Heavens Palace would require time and unwavering dedication. But he was prepared to face the challenges that lay ahead, confident in his ability to overcome them.

With a determined stride, Arthur left his room, ready to embark on the next phase of his cultivation. The path towards becoming a true master was long and arduous, but Arthur was no stranger to hard work and perseverance.
