For the past two days, I have been preparing for this trip. I bought some healing pills from the Treasure Pavilion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are a lot more items that I could buy. But due to lack of money. I bought only the necessary items.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then I walked out of their dorm building. While heading toward the teleportation tower. I texted the dean about my leaving. I believe she might be able to control chaos after my departure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The metal faction members are getting impatient. They wanted an immediate reply from me. But I simply disregarded and ignored the official duel post.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some of them are purposely staying outside the special faction common room. But it's a pity they won't get to see me for some time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I reached the teleportation tower. Already some warriors spotted me on the way. But they don't hinder me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They must be thinking I'm going to the monster zone for training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After entering the building, I walked up to the center. Then I selected the private coordinates point to teleport.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shortly after, the blue lights lit up. The next moment, I disappeared from the spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Red Moon Tower: Forest Area,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When I opened my eyes. I found myself in the middle of a green vegetation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This,\" I muttered. Looking at the surroundings. My eyes flickered with surprise. When she told me, I thought it was a suburb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But looking at this place. I feel I got closer to the destination. I opened my sci-fi to see whether the network is active.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the active signal. A hint of relief flashes in my eyes. At least I can navigate easily. Then I opened the map to see my current location.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A holographic image appeared above the watch. And I spotted the red dot on the blue color map. Then I searched for the destination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The high peak mountain is closer than I had expected before. Which is good news to me. My current location is far away from the core area of the Red Moon Tower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hardly, anyone comes to this forest area. I don't want to face anyone during the cultivation. Especially the elder who was hostile to me during the crimson hall competition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I don't want to come across ever. She had openly stated she won't be friendly when we meet next time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After pushing down these thoughts, I started to walk. The sky was covered with rainy clouds. At any moment, I can hear thunder and lightning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it was good for me. Only with lightning and thunder, I can gather more lightning energy from the surroundings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While walking, I'm clearing the overgrown bushes as well. I don't know whether this forest has any Class Monsters. But I'm sure like Liz Mountain, this place has some pseudo-monsters as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One hour later,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sky was covered with dark clouds. Heavy rain starts to pour down my face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Accompany by thunder and the environment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This environment gives me the perfect condition to cultivate. Unfortunately, I can't find any solid open spots to sit down and cultivate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But I have yet to reach my goal. Because the high peak mountain is half a mile away from here. It would take some time to reach the foot of the mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without minding the pouring heavy rain. I continued to walk on the path. A few hours later, I reached the foot of the mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time I found a few bedrock at the foot of the mountain. This is a blessing in disguise. I drank some water before walking up to the place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I sat cross-legged on the solid rock. Before I started cultivating, I activated the perceptual ability. Though I haven't seen any pseudo-monsters. I'm sure there are some around the vicinity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I closed my eyes and started to run the celestial scripture. Right after, a star lightning rune in my consciousness started to flicker. Right after, I felt a sense of ease and closeness to the surroundings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I can confirm that the surrounding environment has lightning energy. Then I started to attract the energy faster from the surroundings. It was even twice as fast compared to the academy environment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And when it is compared to the mountain Liz. It's many more times. Because this high-peak mountain area is located inside the Tier-6 region.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Normally world energy is abundantly present here. Now that I have a chance to cultivate in the lightning environment. I can feel a huge difference now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the energy entered my body. I guided the energy through veins according to the method. After circulation, the refined essence settles down inside the dantian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The purple essence slowly starts to fill the empty dantian. But the majestic totem didn't move at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that I continued to repeat the process. When a certain refined essence filled in. The totem will make a move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a few hours, I see the vibration of the totem. When the purple essence covered half of the dantian. The totem starts to make the purple essence more pure and powerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that I continued the process. When the dantian is fully covered. I can go back to the academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time passed,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I opened my eyes two hours later. A bright smile can be seen on my face. Because the environment here is more effective than I had thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It took me a few hours to fill the dantian with lightning essence. It saved me a lot of time. When I'm thinking about cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, I felt some movements ahead through perception. I got up from the solid rock and carefully looked outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I spotted a few red dots coming in my direction. A hint of doubt flashes in my eyes. Is this monster or a warrior?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I decided to hide and watch over them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lightning Phantom Technique,\" I said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, the purple arcs covered my legs. I disappeared from the spot and moved towards a gigantic mountain rock to hide behind it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shortly after, I see the identities of the red dots.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Red Moon Tower Warriors,\" I said in my heart. Seeing the number of people. My eyes flickered with a slight glint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What are they doing here? A trace of doubt appeared in my heart. But I decided to wait and see.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, look here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"See, I told you someone came before us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The traces are clear.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The four male warriors started to talk among themselves. They all are Elite Warriors from the Red Moon Tower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like any other academy, the red moon tower also sends its warriors to do some missions. Especially when it comes to collecting specific herbs. Warriors come to high-peak mountains to collect herbs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at this moment, four of them were perplexed. They don't see anyone leaving the academy before them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It must be our academy student,\" One of the warriors commented.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Four of them didn't suspect the person might be an outsider. The high peak mountain is their territory. Who dares to come here other than them?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, one of the warriors frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you guys feel something weird here?\"He asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?\" The 2nd warrior asked back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that the warrior shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's nothing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let's go. We have to find other herbs as well,\" the warrior said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right after, four of them went to the other side of the mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After some time, I appeared back at the solid rock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Herbs,\" I muttered while massaging the temple. I almost forgot about this. The mountain is an ideal place for energy-rich herbs to grow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a good idea struck my mind. I have completed my lightning training. So what about the healing scripture? This is a good place to gather healing energy as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the problem is those people. If they come back during cultivation, it would be troublesome. What to do? A trace of apprehension appeared in my eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then I decided to take the chance. If they appear, I can always detect them using my perception ability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After deciding, I sat cross-legged on the ground and started to cultivate the wooden scripture. Right after, I felt the presence of green energy from the surroundings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I cracked up a wide grin. Having the healing energy before a duel is a good thing for me. It saves me from using the healing pill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slowly, I circulated the absorbed green energy through my body. After the circulation, the refined energy settles down inside the dantian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A small amount of green essence can be seen in the purple sea. Seeing that, I continued to repeat the process.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, the red moon tower team is busy looking for the herbs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After one hour, I looked inside the dantian. The amount of green essence has increased compared to last time. Fortunately, the purple lightning essence and green healing essence didn't mix.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After retracting my thoughts, I looked outside. The thundering rainstorms didn't stop at all. Looking at the time, I realized it was evening. I can go back later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So I have decided to cultivate a few more hours before leaving this place.\u003C\u002Fp>",1526,"2026-06-05T15:56:39.137Z",1,"novelbin.me","7b3627adb074c77b5bf96e826b71afd40cb2716f0e743cd5aed3dd60a56b82a4","ancient-tears-bloodline-chapter-490","ancient-tears-bloodline-chapter-488",1498,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fancient-tears-bloodline-cover.jpg"]
