Yin & Yang Pleasures of Cultivation

Chapter 317: Heavenly Treasures

Under Ninu's lead, Darcel, Aniela, and Masami swiftly enter Mawold Town, heading directly towards the Silver Bloody Hammer group. 

To avoid any unnecessary situations, Ninu took a secluded route towards the Organization, avoiding any and all eyes. 

If any of the members were to known that Darcel's group came back, a volcano of noise would erupt within the Organization.

And by extension, the whole Mawold Town would get swept by this news. 

After all, it hasn't been that long since Darcel's group made their names known here. Even now, numerous Mages and cultivators can vividly recount the day, Darcel, Aniela, and Masami butchered mighty Heavenly Kings like they were mere chickens. 

Thankfully with Ninu, no noisy situation occurred.

And within just a couple of minutes, Ninu led Darcel, Aniela, and Masami into her office. 

"Hm? This is." 

Slight surprise simultaneously came out of Darcel, Anile, and Masami as they gazed around the office.

The trio was more than sure they all had near-perfect memories. They needed it so they could comprehend cultivation manuals, Martial Skills, and other similar items. 

So when they noticed how much Ninu's office had changed, they couldn't help but be surprised. To the air and the decor, things had received a tremendous improvement. 

Darcel had even compared to the quality of the Captians rooms in the Snow Angel organization. 

Only, Ninu's office is just slightly lower quality. 

Considering that the Silver Bloody Hammer group organization is a low-level Mercenrnary group, changes like this should naturally be impossible.

Yet, the proof was utterly undeniable. 

'In fact, not just her office, this whole place got a great do-over. Did she actually do this all on her own? To think we keep on getting surprised.'

Darcel felt genuinely impressed. If anything, this could be a testament to Ninu's competency. All on her own, she managed to reform an entire organization for the better and repeatedly breakthrough within the Heavenly Transformation realm.

Really, just what kind of fortuitous encounter did this woman have? 

And as if Ninu could actually feel out Darcel's thoughts, she snapped her attention over to him right at that moment. 

With a bright smile, she said, "I'm overly pleased Master and Mistresses like our new designs. Once I had reached my current level, it became far easier to enlist profound changes around our Organization. Even now, I'm still heavily working to be of great use to you, Master."

At this, Darcel, Aniela, and Masami simultaneously squared their gazes on Ninu. 

A certain sense of appreciation swelled up inside Darcel. Though now he didn't have the means to create more Darkness Servants, the motivation to find another way began to burn.

In the future, when his and the girl's strength break new boundaries, they'll need to have connections like this. 

Subordinates who are helpful enough to seek out resources and maintain a smoothly running organization would be absolutely perfect.

While Darcel thought of all the objective benefits over Ninu's loyalty, Aniela and Masami was genuinely a bit confused on how this woman could still remain so fiercely loyal.

This situation reminded them a bit of Snow Angel's Captain Bella. 

Both of these women want to desperately go far out of their way to help even though they now have the options not to.

Ninu may still be a Darkness Servant, but her connections should be far weaker because of the yellow-eyed woman interference. 

But here she was, trying to prove her undying worth to Darcel.

'This kind of loyalty.hmph.' Masami huffily crossed her arms while Aniela's curiosity stared straight into Ninu's face. 

The girl's sour feelings didn't lessen a bit, but they couldn't suppress their intrigue in how Ninu is running things.

Before her thoughts could divulge any further, Masami swiftly said, "Alright, enough about that. Our schedule is very tight so let's get this over with. Bring out those supposed great treasures your promise."

"Ah, of course, Mistress." Ninu was prompt on her feet. She went over to her desk, taking out a uniquely color light blue spatial ring. 

Just from taking out the ring, a potent Qi aura gushed out of it.

Darcel, Aniela, and Masami's interest increased even further. Their Spirit Senses didn't even notice such a treasure merely hiding in a table draw. 

And with their attentions at the utmost piqued, Ninu ignited the spatial ring.

A light blue light flash and three medium-size cores appeared upon Ninu's hand. Each core was coated in beautiful crystal ice blue shine and had a distinct layer of frost covering all over it.

Immediately when these crystal ice cores appeared, an even higher rich Qi energy filled the whole room! 

All at once, the atmosphere morphed into something akin to a Qi Haven Space. The Qi energy was as pure as the natural rays of sunlight. 

"Mn?! This is!"

Darcel, Aniela, and Masami couldn't conceal their shock. They stood rooted in place, their eyes intently gazing in on the crystal Ice cores.

Their Spirit and Magical Sense did a full sweep over the Ice Cores, and the results further increased their shock. 

The Qi energy from these Ice Cores was equal; no, it was even richer than what they could get from the Mystical Aura state!

Such an incredible treasure, the trio realized it at least had to be a low-ranking Heavenly Ranking resource! 

Something like this definitely shouldn't be in Ninu's hands. 

These kinds of Heavenly Resources are for high-ranks Heavenly King to fight over. Anyone from the Snow Angel group would be incredibly tempted to get their hands on such a treasure.

They wouldn't even care about any face or honor about attacking people far weaker than them for it. The temptations to achieve breakthroughs in the Heavenly Transformations was just too high to ignore.

"Ninu.just how did you get your hands on this? Surely, where these treasures were had to be tightly guarded." 

Darcel threw out the question he and the girls had swirling in their minds.

In stark contrast to her Master and Mistress's shock, Ninu remained calmed, as if she expected this. 

As a soft smile crossed her lips, she told the trio, "This actually happened a long while ago, Master. Before the Mecernay Exchange Event, I did several dealings and trades with Nobe's Fang group Fruna. In one of these trades, we ventured out using that special compass of her. We then eventually came upon a cave that was guarded by only weaker Ice-attributed Spirit Monsters. After dealing with them, these Ice Core were our rewards."

Darcel, Aniela, and Masami calmed themselves down as they listened to Ninu's explanation. 

On the surface, it made sense. After all, when they met up with Fruna inside that independent realm, her compass was the reason they were able to escape in the first place.

Without her, Darcel shudders to think what could've happened to them. Still, the more they thought about it, the more questions popped into their minds. 

"Mn.if you're saying this was before that event, surely you still would've been at least a second-level Heavenly King? Fruna, at most, would've been at the third level. So my question is, just how could beasts weaker than you two guard such powerful treasures?" 

Aniela raised another question. 

At this point, Ninu's expression finally changed. Her eyebrows curled as she said, "This. I'm not too sure, Mistress. In all honesty, the cave appeared it was newly risen out from the ground. All around the cave, there was fresh cracks splitting open the ground, and there was barely any gray snow covering the cave. My best guess is after the day that the sky changed, that cave must've arisen from the ground. And that cave had accumulated so much Heaven and Earth Origin years for at least dozens of years, leading to these Ice Cores."

"The day the sky changed?"

Darcel, Aniela, and Masami were a bit taken aback at this. Even until now, neither of them was fully aware of just how much the world was affected by the Gray Force.

As Masami pondered over this, a memory suddenly resurfaced in her mind. "Ah, hey! Barring the sky changing, I can properly explain how this treasure came to be." 

Teachings from her dear grandmother flashed in Masami's mind. A sense of great nostalgia swelled inside her, causing her to subconsciously let loose a peaceful smile. 

Unaware of this, Masami explained to the others, "Treasures like this are actually far more likely to appear in our Province than any other. The infinite power sourced deep within the Plunged Tundra is also continually spewing Heaven and Earth Origin energy that's directly connected to the source of the whole Planet. Along with creating this endless Ice, it also helps form great treasures that take dozens of years to form. Really, it's only now that I realized Grandmother is such a great source of knowledge."

'That infinite power source again.' 

Darcel and Aniela kept their expressions hidden, but internally, their skepticism rose. 

In their strange and mystical world, there are so many things that seem impossible or inexplainable. 

But an infinite power source? 

Somehow Darce and Aniela found this difficult to accept. 

Just how can anything have infinite power or energy? 

Everything just had to reach a limit. Otherwise, that would be literally breaking the rules of reality.

And since even Masami's mighty grandmother wasn't entirely sure of that infinite power source's true origins, the duo felt like something was strange there.

While Darcel and Aniela briefly got lost in thoughts, Ninu took the moment to speak next. 

"Oh, Mistress is so smart! Now it all makes sense why these cores are so magical. Master, Mistresses, you have my complete assurance that if you absorb this, you can instantly reach the next level!"
