My Salvation Game Became true?!.

Chapter 934: Chapter 503: The Moon Lord’s Attention

Two Ethereal Spirits left the Guardian’s Mansion, one carefree, the other disconsolate.

The aged demigod, who had lived for six to seven thousand years, still couldn’t figure it out, why did it turn out this way?

Clearly, they had finally found a lost kin;

Clearly, the ability and celestial grace of this junior kin was exceedingly beyond imagination;

But when they both came together, his statement "Only in the Spirit Court could Ethereal Spirits truly receive nurturing" seemed laughable.

He was also somewhat puzzled...

"The laws wrapped around her like threads, like curtains of rain, hovering around her like spirits waiting for orders... I could not be mistaken, her mastery of the laws far exceeds mine by too much."

"But how could an Ethereal Spirit, lost in the outside world and extremely young, possess such power?"

"And if I’m not mistaken, she’s just a mid-stage demigod, not yet at her peak."

His previous thoughts had been sincere.

Although Ethereal Spirits could effortlessly step into the Mythic Realm and even ascend to demigodhood, this was built upon a cultivation system created and passed down by generations of great beings.

Without these, Ethereal Spirits would take considerable time to reach maturity.

And advancing to demigodhood would be quite difficult.

"I’ve heard that Flamefire organization has mastered very potent cultivation techniques and inheritances, but could a human faction excel the main lineage of Ethereal Spirits in nurturing?"

He wanted to say it was impossible.

Yet the reality laid bare before him.

Hongyuan, the demigod, was somewhat in a daze, his worldview shattered.

They settled in the City of Raging Flame temporary residence.

Even though he harbored ulterior motives, the Flamefire organization did not expel him, Hongyuan demigod smiled wryly. But from that day on, that young and powerfully exaggerated junior never showed him a good face again.

He also had no face to continue paying visits.

However, the junior who came with him, ’Xilin’, originally just to broaden her horizons, often visited the Guardian’s Mansion and got along well with that kin of hers, seemingly having formed a good relationship.

"This is not bad either..."

"Wait!"

Wouldn’t it turn out that his own ’precious cabbage’ has been poached?!

Logically speaking, it was impossible, but since entering the City of Raging Flame, he had encountered one thing after another that defied common sense.

Hongyuan, the demigod, no longer had confidence.

He quickly sent a message to the Spirit Court, seeking help from the higher-ups.

...

Fang You was examining Xiao Bai’s body.

In terms of cultivation.

One thing the old demigod from the Spirit Court didn’t get wrong, only in their place would Ethereal Spirits receive the most suitable inheritance.

Xiao Bai’s strength exceeded that of the old demigod, enjoying the advantage of laws.

Her mastery of the laws was not insubstantial, undoubtedly extravagant for the Demigod Realm.

But within the Flamefire organization, Xiao Bai’s law mastery was not uncommon, she couldn’t even rank in the top ten amongst the powerhouses.

"Apart from that, Xiao Bai’s spatial abilities and talent seem to greatly surpass these two kin of hers."

He had thought that casually shuttling through space, moving from the Mysterious Eastern Realm to the Western Guai Realm with a single thought, was something Ethereal Spirits, as mythical beings, could naturally do.

But after Xiao Bai had a good chat with the Ethereal Spirit girl Xilin, he realized it was not so simple.

Ethereal Spirits’ spatial shuttling had maximum distance limits.

The consciousness and computational capacity of Ethereal Spirits were also limited.

Xiao Bai was definitely an outlier among the Ethereal Spirits.

Recently, the young girl Xilin has been questioning her life – as Ethereal Spirits, was our difference in talent too vast?

"Is it because Xiao Bai herself is unique, or because she resides within a panel, constantly operating and maintained, thus benefitting from nurturing and refining?"

The latter seemed more likely.

But Xiao Bai herself was most likely an outstanding figure among her kin. After all, his contract with Xiao Bai came from a draw of fate.

Xiao Bai was innately strong.

With a mastery of the laws and possession of legendary skills, she was unreasonably powerful.

However, the usage of space abilities, inheritance of spatial talent, and the shape-shifting techniques of Ethereal Spirits’ bodies—Flamefire indeed fell far short of the Spirit Court.

Fang You was also thinking if there was a way to acquire these inheritances from the Spirit Court.

He stood by.

Xiao Bai was also in no rush.

However, for Hongyuan, the old demigod, urgency was mounting; there’s a tendency that his ’little cabbage’ might be snatched away.

Several days later,

Specks of light converged in a mansion where Hongyuan, the demigod, was temporarily residing, forming a towering figure.

A figure, translucent and humanoid in appearance, seemed like a ghost at first glance.

He was a high-ranking member of the Ethereal Spirit kin.

His true self had arrived.

"I see, this junior has the stature of a high-ranking one, this is good news for us Ethereal Spirits."

The old demigod hesitated to speak.

The high-ranking being ’Kong You’ said, "Since this junior can be nurtured in a human faction, let her be. Each has their own destiny."

"Do not forget, we Ethereal Spirits are free-spirited beings by nature."

"It is because you have yet to grasp this, that you have been unable to find the path to a higher rank."

Hongyuan demigod: "..."

You are the powerful one, you’re remarkable, you’re right.

Only he was breaking his heart over the tribe.

"There’s another matter..." he said.

Kong You pondered briefly, "I see, Xilin, the child, wants to stay in the City of Raging Flame to play with peers her age, and there’s nothing wrong with that. Just a child."

"!!!"

Is this really about playing? She’s going to be poached!

"It’s fine."

"Do you think a child like Xilin could be easily taken away? Of course not. So do you think Xilin could learn some genuine skills from Flamefire? That’s possible. If so, let her stay if she wants, there’s nothing bad about that."

The higher being said, "I’ve long heard that the Flamefire Academy does not discriminate based on affiliations and has cultivated strong individuals for many powers. During this process, the powers only need to pay a certain price. Do you think, as Ethereal Spirits, we lack such a trifle?"

Obviously not.

What they lacked the least was money.

Hongyuan the Demigod realized, this is the realm of a high-ranking dignitary!

Fang You also did not expect that the high-ranking being from the Elemental Spirit Court was so easy to talk to, especially since their own Demigod didn’t seem very competent.

He signed a contract with this Kong You high-ranking being.

The Flamefire Academy would train Xilin to the Mythical level under the highest exchange student standards. The tuition was some inheritance knowledge related to spatial powers.

In fact, it was his Flamefire that got the better end of the deal.

These inheritances, even if they don’t touch the core of the lineage of Ethereal Spirits, are extremely rare high-end knowledge that Flamefire had difficulty obtaining nowadays.

Presumably, it was the Kong You high-ranking being compensating for Hongyuan the Demigod’s rudeness.

And probably, this being wanted to take this opportunity to cultivate Xiao Huan. After all, the majority of these inheritances were not suitable for human use and could only be learned by Ethereal Spirits.

Teacher Fang was not just about taking advantage of others.

Perhaps he could offer a few spatial-related skill fruits to Xilin the Mythical as a gift.

Consider it returned.

Who knows, it may even serve as publicity for Flamefire Academy, spreading its name to the Elemental Spirit Court.

The plan was a go.

...

The Kong You high-ranking being came in a hurry and left just as quickly, freely roaming in the rivers of space.

It is said that they rarely return to the Spirit Court.

It is only because of the disaster’s influence, otherwise, over a hundred Ethereal Spirits would seldom stay within the Spirit Court.

"Are all elemental beings so free and unrestrained?"

By comparison, humans are truly diligent.

No wonder humans, with their frail bodies, are scattered all over the Ghastly Realm.

By comparison, the Elemental Spirit Court, with more high-ranking powers, only occupies a small corner.

Yes, in terms of high-end combat power, the Elemental Spirit Court is indeed superior to humans.

From a narrow viewpoint, the lineage of the Ethereal Spirits has three high-ranking beings, all of whom have slowly cultivated up from the Mythic Realm.

Kong You the high-ranking being is one of them.

But if viewed from a broader perspective, the high-ranking powers of Ethereal Spirits far exceed just three.

Because among them, an extremely small number are beings who were at the ninth level from the moment of their birth. They are Ancient Gods.

Ethereal Spirits are legendary beings.

Amongst them, a very small number of individuals were born at the dawn of the world, Ancient God beings.

There are some differences between the two, but roughly speaking, they can be considered to be of the same lineage.

In short, the Elemental Spirit Court’s power is ’narrowly’ slightly weaker than human forces, but their backing is much more stable than humans’.

Among the Ethereal Spirits, there is an old, mysterious, and great foundational existence.

Its revered name—Ethereal Sakura Butterfly.

...

"Ethereal, you’ve also arrived."

Above the grey mist, a hidden, ethereal, ancient location of mystery.

On the round stone table, a mystical symbol slowly lit up.

A figure, not tall, with thin wings, appeared before the symbol.

Another great being had arrived.

Around the stone table sat several other great beings.

Some had figures like humans, wearing luxurious robes and accessories, while others were as vast as mountains, their eyes like stars, incomparably magnificent.

But by the ancient stone table, no matter how short or tall they were, they all had equal standing.

Seated in the main seat was a being as brilliant as the blazing sun.

It was none other than the Great Sun God Honourable.

The Great Sun God Honourable, the Moon Lord, and the Lord of Stars were all great beings of the same faction, and this time, they also invited several beings from other factions to discuss together.

"Launching a counterattack against the Evil God’s camp, I have no objections. Having been attacked for so long, I’ve long been displeased!"

A being with a body like a diamond, sparkling with radiance, spoke.

"I agree as well."

Another great being echoed.

"... But for such a battle, why involve the feeble humans?"

One of the great beings expressed a negative opinion, "How many high-rankings do the humans have among them? They will only hinder us."

The Lord of Stars shook his head, "You can’t say that. While humans are indeed weak, their forces’ reach extends all across the Ghastly Realm, and humans have invented many powerful weapons. With their assistance, our push into the inner regions of the Western Guai Realm will have a greater chance of success... It’s precisely due to the numerous humans that many old friends have managed to restore their statuses.

"Besides, we beings are already at a disadvantage and should utilize all available forces."

"Hmph, we are sufficient on our own!"

A being within the storm scoffed, no longer explicitly objecting, "But when the time comes, if the human powerhouses prove incompetent, I won’t participate."

At this moment, the Moon Lord, with a cool demeanor, spoke up, "Humans... are not without strong individuals. In recent years, humans have developed rapidly, giving rise to a number of new high-rankings, and may even hold powers we are unaware of."

The being within the storm was surprised.

He was astonished at the Moon Lord’s familiarity with human forces.

As for high-rankings? To humans, indeed, they are supreme powerhouses, but to the beings present here, a high-ranking is only just enough to come into their view.

Today’s meeting was merely a preliminary discussion.

Soon after, one by one, the great beings departed.

The Moon Lord’s mysterious figure also disappeared into the cool Moonlight.

Her consciousness wandered, sweeping across the vast expanse of land.

There was something she hadn’t mentioned just now, that several new high-rankings had emerged amongst humans, and these few were all from the same human force.

And this organization called Flamefire, its rate of development was beyond imagination.

The rate at which its core members advanced and broke through realms was also enough to astound any great being.

After all,

She had noticed them a few years ago~

The Moon Lord’s lips curled into a faint smile, her gaze traversing domain after domain, slowly settling on the land where stars fall.
