Essence stones were not only currency, but they were also a resource that could be used to cultivate. However, no one wanted to use them unless they had a numerous amount.

Many other resources could be used to enhance one's cultivation base, so it was not necessary to use essence stones.

However, Xue Wei had gained more than one vein of top-ranked essence stones at the thunder twilight zone; he had also gotten a whole mountain of them in the underground world. He had so many that he could not use them all in his lifetime, so he might as well use them for cultivating.

The many people who observed him were puzzled at first when they saw him taking out top-ranked essence stones. What purpose could he possibly have? But when they saw him starting to absorb the energy within, their hearts hurt.

Even the Vermilion Bird Clan members were feeling their hearts ache. Although their clan was immensely powerful and wealthy, it contained a numerous amount of members, all of them couldn't be rich.

Seeing someone use top-ranked essence stones, which usually were used as currency, to cultivate was hurting them immensely.

But Xue Wei ignored them. Although he had always been dillingent, he was now aware that he had to grasp every moment to cultivate. He was now much slower, so he needed more time as well.

Bai Tianyi understood Xue Wei's sense of crisis, but he was still aware that Xue Wei would be able to go much further now than he could before, as his foundation and his bloodline were now both first class.

As a cultivator, time was the least of problems. Although it was true that one would be less of a genius if they took a long time to advance, time was what they had most of. When one reached the Saint rank, it was near impossible to die of old age, and thus Bai Tianyi was not too worried.

Hei Gou, Lin Xiao, and Luoluo were all aware that something had changed with Xue Wei and his cultivation method, but they had not asked what had changed; neither did they show any interest in doing the same.

They knew that the change had been gifted to Xue Wei from Bai Tianyi, so they knew it would not be dangerous. As such, they just kept to themselves.

Slowly, while Xue Wei was cultivating, the Vermilion Bird experts woke up one after another. Their faces were filled with confusion.

Some had expressions of despair, others had expressions of puzzlement, but when they saw Xue Wei and his companions, excitement flashed in their eyes.

At least for most of them. The princes were looking at Xue Wei without hiding the disdain in their eyes. He had gone to some underground world, but now he was still just a Heavenly Knight. Still not a Saint, and now that the majority of the Vermilion Bird Clan's members were Ordinary Saints, they would not listen to his orders.

It was not before after some time that they realized that Hei Gou was now an Earth Saint. And while he was an Earth Saint, many of the others were Ordinary Saints of the people who had saved them, and all of them were looking for Xue Wei as if he was their leader.

The princes were unhappy. For what reason could this weakling order around an Earth Saint?

At the same time, the many Ordinary Saints were a significant benefit in the Ascended's Realm, but why were they listening to Xue Wei? These princes very much disliked him.

Xue Wei did not care about whether or not they liked or disliked him; he was only helping them because the old Vermilion Bird Clan Leader had been kind to him. He did not want to owe the older man anything.

But the Clan Leader had already said that if they were too unruly, he could leave them, and if they did not follow orders, he could not be blamed.

Even so, he was not going to run from his responsibility, and now he had saved them, so he was going to wait for them to wake up.

The essence stones within his hands turned lusterless, and moments after, he crushed them to dust and removed it from his fingers.

After a glance, he had seen that there were still three Vermilion Bird Clan members unconscious, so he picked another two top-ranked essence stones and began cultivating again.

It was not only Xue Wei who was cultivating, but the others also followed suit, but a few were alert and frowning. Luoluo was one of them.

There was something about this clearing, especially the pond and the mist, that made her feel uncomfortable. But as to why she was unable to say something.

"Everyone, move away from the pond," Luoluo suddenly said, and those who had been standing close to the pond quickly left.

Although Luoluo was a child, she was a member of Xue Wei's group, and they understood that she was not someone to be belittled. She was a child, but she should not be treated as a child.

When the people who had been close to the pond left, Luoluo frowned as her eyes pierced the mist. The discomfort was growing increasingly, but it was not painful, it was more like something powerful was pressuring her.

But of all the people present, only she could feel it. She looked at Xue Wei, but he was entirely focused on cultivating. She then observed Hei Gou, but he was busy scouting the forest that surrounded the clearing.

The next she looked at, with some expectation, was Bai Tianyi. Bai Tianyi was a spirit like her, but he still showed no abnormality. It was weird.
