"Devour!"
A black vortex appeared above the mercenary's head and absorbed his soul, cultivation and blood essence.
The mercenary became a bag of bones.
Inside Zheng Jiayi dantian, when he absorbed the mercenary he hit the bottle neck and broke through smoothly and advanced to 3rd layer of foundation realm.
"I reached 3rd layer of foundation realm,if I need to breakthrough to other realms I need to devour more"
He then looked towards the ice wolves.6 small vortexes appeared near the 6 ice wolves and started to devour their beast core and essence.
After devouring he heard multiple sounds in his dantian.
"I reached 6th layer foundation realm. I need to stabilize my realm."
"After devouring his soul, I gained some of his memories. His name is Xe Jing and he is the younger brother of the skull mercenary's leader."
"His elder brother name is Xe jang and his cultivation is 4th layer of soul wandering realm and he has sky grade talent whereas Xe Jing only has mortal grade talent."
"He did some small illegal activities in the Jinyuan city. Because he is from skull mercenary no officials in the city is dared to arrest him."
"Skull mercenary is one of the top mercenary in the Sui dynasty. The headquarters of skull mercenary is in Khalin city. One of the top cities in the dynasty. Sui dynasty is middle power in mortal realm. Sui family rules the dynasty for over 50,000 years."
"Sui dynasty King is in 7th layer spirit Severing
realm and the ancestor of Sui dynasty is in
6th layer of Nihility realm"
Zheng Jiayi checked the bag of bones and when he saw the rings in his finger his lit up.
"Spacial ring!, it's low tier sky grade spacial ring!"
when a artifact owner dies the soul mark in the artifact will disappear. In some special artifact's even if the owner dies the soul mark will not disappear.
Spacial ring is made of void stones.The void stones are extremely rare. Even small piece fetch many purple coins.
Zheng Jiayi checked the spacial rings and cursed out loud.
"Fuck him!, He is the younger brother of the leader of the skull mercenary?, Why there is nothing valuable inside the space ring!, he's very stingy!"
"He only has 100 gold coins, fee sets of dresses and 10 middle stage ordinary beast's beast cores ."
He just devoured the 10 beast cores and his cultivation increased slightly.
*GRR*
"Ah! I forgot I am hungry",
he took a big piece of ice wolf meat and grilled it.
seeing this grilled piece of meat he drooled.
"I heard eating beast that are above foundation realm realm increases cultivation because above foundation realm thay can use qi. Their body will be soaked in qi. The meat is known as spiritual meat"
"Raw spiritual meat can't be eaten directly"
"Commoners can't afford to eat spiritual meat even cultivators don't have the mind to pay huge amount of coins to eat spiritual meat"
"Only when in some famous clan gatherings or prince/princess wedding etc... the cultivators can eat spiritual meat."
"The are like delicacy to them. Not everyone can get the chance to eat spiritual meat"
"Higher the increase in beast cultivation higher the cost of the meat"
"Selling spiritual meat to a restaurant will fetch good amount of coins"
he munched on the meat. Even though it tasted bad.For him it's very good. After eating the spiritual meat his cultivation increased.
He sighed emotionally
"It's been 100 year since i ate last meal ",
He ate all the meat lf the ice wolves and got changed to another dress which is in spacial ring.
"The dress is so big for my thin physique, I need to buy few sets of dresses when I reach the city"
He left the place and travelled 2 days without rest. Some low stage ordinary beasts ambushed him on his way to jinyuan city, without much effort he used his vortex to devour.
"ahhh..I finaly reached the outskirts of Jinyuan city. Its not a big city but recently developed from town to a city."
"Jinyuan city is ruled by a 8th layer core formation realm city lord. Even the city lord show respect in front of Xe Jing.
Eventhough Xe jing has low cultivation because of his older brother Xe jang and his backing skull mercenaries"
Zheng Jiayi walked towards the city gate.
