Chapter 306: Chapter 298: The Condensation of Ghost Essence in the Nether Lake (triple release)

Owen Bertram raised an eyebrow upon hearing about the Seventh Level. It was indeed a sky-high status. However, Lord Bertram wasn’t extremely shocked, possibly because... he had once scolded someone unreliable at the Seventh Level?

But Owen Bertram was also well aware of what a Seventh Level meant.

Assuming the Seventh Level person really had good intentions, why would he want to publicize this matter? Wouldn’t it be better for him to lead a group of young people deep into Copper Gorge to collect these opportunities?

A Seventh Level person might not be completely at ease in Copper Gorge, but they wouldn’t need to worry too much about anything.

And where did this news about the Seventh Level person come from?

Owen Bertram asked Rachel again, "So the question remains, what exactly is your true goal?"

Rachel said: "The best outcome would definitely be me obtaining the Spiritual Treasure Embryo or an extraordinary treasure at the least. However, Copper Gorge is filled with dangers, and my father doesn’t want me to take too many risks. If things don’t work out, I should quickly withdraw and consider it as an experience."

He glanced at Emma Scott beside him and said, "Another thing is, the Scott Family is extremely serious about this matter. One of the conditions for our marriage alliance with the Lloyd Sect is that both families work together to seize the Spiritual Treasure Embryo."

My father believes that even if we do not get the Spiritual Treasure Embryo, having a daughter-in-law with a Nine Hua Dao Body from this trip is not a loss."

"As for myself, I suspect that the Seventh Level expert might appear in Copper Gorge. My father has been stuck at the Sixth Great Realm for years, and the progress in his Mechanical Techniques has also stagnated. I want to find this expert and ask him for guidance for my father. Our Lloyd Sect can provide ample rewards."

Owen Bertram nodded his head. Each party had its motives, and each person had their reasons.

Emma Scott on the side looked indifferent, but Owen Bertram could see that she was actually lost. She had no idea why the Scott Clan was so insistent, even to the point of using a Nine Hua Dao Body as a bargaining chip.

Owen Bertram glanced at Sherry in the distance: Could this old woman know something?

The team was moving forward when suddenly, the "hillside" in front shook! The hillside looked a little different from the surroundings; although the plants on the nearby mountains were lush, this hillside was bare, exposing only the dark brown "rocks."

As it shook, the few people at the front of the team thought it was an earthquake. But then, they saw that only the hillside was shaking, and then a column of mixed flame and white smoke spewed out from it before it became still again.

The team stopped, and cold sweat broke out on the faces of the people at the front. They were only more than a hundred feet away from that "hillside"...

Obviously, there was a giant Demon Beast in disguise. If they really came close to the "foot of the mountain," the outcome would be self-explanatory.

"Change our route slightly," Owen Bertram instructed, feeling that the Demon Beast was "wise" enough to warn them beforehand to avoid a big battle.

The few people at the front became somewhat frantic and hurriedly detoured from that "hillside." They circled around the outer edge of an ominous, dense, black-wooded forest, only to find a vast swamp appearing unexpectedly in front of them.

In the pitch-black muck, bubbles flipped over occasionally. A dense, toxic mist lingered above, enveloping the area in silence. No matter how one looked at it, it didn’t seem safe.

Owen Bertram shook his head and went to the front of the team, "I’ll lead the way."

High in the sky, Magpie wagged its tail as it soared with the wind. From the ground, it was just a small, unremarkable black dot. However, even at such a height, it wasn’t safe, so Magpie had to be cautious.

It signaled Master to follow the path. Magpie suddenly conveyed a timid message to the Master: "I spotted something delicious. Can you wait a moment? I’ll come back to continue leading the way after eating."

Owen Bertram found it strange since Magpie hadn’t lacked food in the past few days.

Here in the Extinction Domain, danger lurked everywhere, but for Magpie, it was a feast of delicacies.

Its intuition never failed, and it wouldn’t provoke anything malicious. Every night after Owen Bertram and Emma Scott rested, Magpie would quietly set out, flying far away to feed itself before returning without disturbing Master and the young lady.

Moreover, due to the variety of Demon Beings in the Extinction Domain, Magpie was getting a balanced diet and was showing signs of needing to perform The Scripture of All Things Responding to Spirits again.

Little Ghost Dave wasn’t missing out either. After Owen Bertram killed the strange members of the Living Beings Sect and left, Dave sneaked back to devour their souls.

It was also because of this incident Owen Bertram learned vital intelligence about the Living Beings Sect: the souls of these strange people had undergone corresponding changes due to the "transformation" of their bodies!

So why was Magpie suddenly itching to find more food at this time?

If it were any other strict master, they would be furious, scolding and punishing these siblings. However, Owen Bertram felt a sense of pity and timidness from Magpie’s message, so he reluctantly agreed.

Even without Magpie leading the way, Owen Bertram was confident he could avoid most dangers.

With the Master’s permission, Magpie happily dove towards a specific location. The place was a dozen miles away from Owen Bertram and the others. At the bottom of a gentle slope, there was a watery area about several acres large. Under the sunlight, the water sparkled, and several golden-scaled small fish joyfully jumped on the surface from time to time.
