Chapter 401: After the seclusion II

Sam is getting ready to go to the thunder god temple. There is still two weeks of time for that.

But he was shocked by something else. There is a notice from the Imperial capital. The thunder god temple has taken the candidates for the Palace of Inheritance earlier and they particularly gave instructions to Arc.

Sam is not allowed to go to the thunder god temple.

He was honestly surprised; in fact, he thought the thunder god temple very much wanted him to visit so that they can just deal with him for once and for all.

As he thought, suddenly something flashed in his mind and that is the protection of Avatar. Last time in the thunder god temple territory, Avatar Sanchez mentioned that no one in the thunder god temple shall harm the candidates within their vicinities.

Maybe, he felt that it is the same situation. But he wasn't extremely disappointed with the thunder god temple's ban, because he can go through another place. The Beast faction.

In these past five months, all the Space gates are finished construction in all of the empires. Sam has even sent an employee to those Space gates to manage. This concluded their business with the Space gate association, but surprisingly Zeke didn't leave, he bought a house in Sam's city and stayed there for no apparent reason other than that he liked that place.

But he didn't care.

As for the Palace of Inheritances, they can go to the Beast faction and this time, he is looking forward to meeting the cultivators that will be returning. Because only the twelve people who got the token can come.

But to his surprise, Arman sent another news through the Imperial family and that is new token were sent out from the Palace of Inheritance.

From the thunder god temple's entrance, three tokens came.

Sam then contacted the people from the Kali empire's Space gate. There is an intercontinental communication device in both places, of course, he can talk to his employees, then they contacted the people from the Beast faction through the Imperial family of Kali.

Sam confirmed that the same thing happened in the Beast faction.

Three tokens were sent out of the entrance and they are for the Nascent stage cultivators.

The only problem for the major powers is that they are feeling that fifteen days is too little of a time. Because every elder in the faction is a nascent stage cultivator and the Grand elders also have Nascent stage cultivators as their descendants.

Everyone wants entry into the Palace of inheritance for themselves. After all, the previous visit has given them extremely high rewards, the battle techniques, which Sam sold off are of extremely high value.

Thunder god temple, who got the most out of them, felt like they gained the most out of all of them. They couldn't find a single battle technique in their faction that could rival those techniques.

And these things will most certainly can't be hidden at all, the spies did their job and at this moment, they are extremely excited.

That is also the reason for all the elders to go crazy over it.

Sam didn't mind though; his only regret is that his friends didn't have permission to enter the Palace.

Watt didn't even enter the first one. If Sam wants, he can certainly take a token from the Beast faction, but he didn't want to do so.

Today, they might not have been able to do anything, but that doesn't mean they wouldn't get any other chances in the future.

He would surely take them. There are still ten more turns after all.

Before he left, Sam sent the Bee puppets to the high-level management positions.

He gave each a puppet as a complementary and he also gave them the viewing tablet which is connected to the puppet.

Most of them are fascinated by the Puppet. They don't have many uses for them as they mostly stay within the city and in the parks.

But they still felt great with the puppet by their side. But that doesn't mean it didn't have any use at all. Their inspection rounds are a lot easier now that they don't have to visit every corner of the place themselves, they can just let the puppet take the role.

As for other uses, they don't know if they would need to or get to use the offensive measures of these puppets, but they are using it for showing off.

A personal puppet; that too with a spirit enchanted, they are having the time of their lives with a personal assistant beside them.

But what they don't know is that the very puppet might become their bane if Sam willed it so.

It is like a ticking time bomb, whenever Sam wanted to kill them, that would be done in a second.

Soon, the Bee puppet became popular, particularly the hunting teams who often visit parks. Now parks are the main business hubs. Even the businesses of the families are being affected, so they are trying to make partnerships with the shops in the park. The new arrangements even made it available for them to take shops to lease within the park, but they have to reach certain standards.

As for the hunting groups, they felt like the Bee puppets are one of the most suitable devices for scouting when they venture deep into the woods.

Apart from the hunting groups, even the government caught sight of these puppets, they are great for the city patrol and even the military.

But currently, the military of the Western continent is extremely obsolete.

There are no wars and the most they could do is guarding the people in the hunting grounds. Which will change soon enough.

After arranging everything, Sam left for the beast faction. He went there a week earlier and decided to spend this time with the Old beast and the Raijus.

Arc is surprisingly still training there.

When Sam entered the valley, Old beast said.

"His potential is not much; he would probably touch the peak of Consummate. He is currently at Peak of transcendent stage cultivation, he has accumulated energy in his body and wasn't able to forcefully breakthrough because of the lack of guidance, his lack of comprehension made him just absorb energy like crazy, and now it is exploding resulting in continuous breakthroughs.

This is also simulated his potential and might reach the Consummate realm in a few months and continuously advance for the next two years."

Old beast explained to Sam and left the latter in shock.

This is not something he expected, it seems like Arc was truly frustrated with the oppression of the major powers.

He almost destroyed himself by accumulating too much energy. He is not a beast after all. Beasts have lineages inherited from their ancestors, so they only need energy, they already have an innate understanding of the cultivation ingrained into their blood and bones.

But humans don't possess such lineage, the only thing they inherited is the spiritual core. In some cases, some constitutions of the body.

Sam stayed within the tempest valley to train until now there are no obstacles for him in the cultivation, but it is going to change soon. Because, after the breakthrough to the Nascent realm, he got some new information.

Then only he understood that he is just beginning his cultivation.

In fact, his strength is way too puny and there is a long road ahead.

He started tempering his body with the lightning in the tempest valley, to increase the resistance and this training has to start at the ends of the valley where the lighting is weakest.

But even then, Sam wasn't able to resist the attack much less use it to temper himself. Although it didn't cause any form of significant damage, he is still feeling uneasy all over. If this happened even a little deeper into the valley, he would have become a lump of charred flesh.

He sat cross-legged and let the lightning rage through him. The Raiju bloodline in his body is completely activated as he started activating the lightning element in his body to resist the lightning strikes.

But both of them are not neutralizing instead, there is a collision and his body is the one being affected. At least, this could serve as some endurance training.

Sam knew that there are drawbacks in doing this, in the Nascent stage cultivation of the body and spirit will be metamorphosized and the difficulty of metamorphosis is extremely high if the body and spirit are too strong.

Sam's spirit is far stronger than his body and that is creating an unnecessary imbalance between body and spirit.

This is what he observed in these past five months.

That is why, he is trying new ways to temper his body, he wanted to use his body cultivation asanas in the lightning, but he realized from the first strike that he would end up dead if he did that before he could find a way to resist the lightning he would be dead meat.
