Ancient Tears BloodLine

Tier-7 Baguva City,

Compton Villa,

"What is the name of the treasure?" Elder Thornton asked. He noticed the treasure appeared to be in heart shape. He hadn't seen something like this before.

Ricardo Compton has no problem in revealing the name. Besides, he also wants to show his investment in Zack Lockwood. He hoped his friend also will remember his gesture.

"Red Heart Peach, I collected this fruit from the special monster zone," Compton finished after saying this he didn't want to elaborate more on this matter.

His gaze then fell on the training chamber. Expectations rose in his heart. He has no idea about Zack's cultivation talent. But he has some idea about Red Heart Peach.

The Red Heart Peach is a rare treasure, It can be even consumed by an averagely talented person. So he is not worried about any failure at this moment.

On the other hand, Elder Thornton remained silent after hearing the answer. There is a tacit understanding between them. None of them wants to talk about the existence behind Zack Lockwood.

In particular, Elder Thornton is very conscious about it. He understands his friend's move, and he is not against it. Because at the end of the day, all he cares about is Zack's safety.

...

(From MC's Perspective)

As both cultivation methods began to work simultaneously, I felt somewhat relief from the heart-wrenching pain. And what is more surprising is that, I have a feeling that my body strength has reached its limit.

After a few minutes, I guess I will have a successful breakthrough in body strength.

Time went by,

BOOM

I felt a muffled sound in my body after the limit was broken successfully. In the next second, a new profound energy began to course through my body and hereby refreshing the entire cells.

Peak-level Special Trainee (body)

As expected this time the energy is more profound compared to the previous level. Elder Compton said that I will reach Trainee Warrior.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

Reaching the Trainee Warrior level seems impossible right now. If it was an ordinary warrior, this might be possible. But I'm different, I'm cultivating both my body and essence.

As the cells beaming with new energy, I thought about focusing on lightning essence after stabilizing the body strength.

When the body strength was stabilized, I immediately stopped using the blood cultivation method and focussed on essence cultivation.

Right now, inside my dantian. The ancient totem is completely suppressing the refined energy. I was amazed by another remarkable sight. Exactly because of the ancient totem's help, the pressure on me was reduced by half.

Otherwise, things could have gone wrong. Then I focussed on reaching the essence limit. As long as I reach the limit, then it will be easier for me to break the essence limit.

Time went by,

The world energy showed no sign of stopping. I'm pouring all the energy towards my dantian.

Ten minutes later,

I have finally touched the limit with the help of abundant world energy and ancient totem.

The ancient totem inside my dantian assimilated the refined world energy essence into purple lightning essence.

Because of it, both the quality and quantity of lightning essence drastically increase and hereby help me reach the limit.

Then I proceed to break the limit. After several attempts, I felt that limit was loosening.

BOOM

After the next attempt, I heard a muffled sound from dantian as another limit was broken through successfully.

Peak-level Special Trainee (essence)

As a result of it, the size of the dantian began to widen. The size of the dantian is quite big compared to the previous one. The next second, I used remaining world energy coursing in my body to stabilize the realm.

Time went by,

I opened my eyes half an hour later. This time the world energies were dried up completely. I don't know if I use the same treasure again. Will I have the same result?

Then shaking my head, I began to check my body. I sighed in relief after seeing only superficial injury on my muscles.

When I extend my arc, I can see small purple arc dancing in my palm. Some time ago, I heard after reaching the elite level you can freely use your element.

Especially, after reaching the elite level you can control your element outwardly without using any cultivation technique. I don't know how much this is true. I haven't seen any elite warriors fight before.

A quick glint flashes into my eyes as I remember Elder Compton. He was generous enough to give me such treasure. I remember, Mr Thornton is inquiring about him last. Maybe next time when I meet Mr Jonathan. I will tell good words about Elder Compton.

Though I'm unable to reach the Trainee Warrior level, it gives me immense joy just after reaching Peak level Special Trainee in both body and essence.

When I clenched my fist, a small shock force released from it. The blood method is something. I'm looking forward to its power in further higher stages.

Then I thought about my combat prowess. I held up my chin in contemplation. Last time, I withstood the attack from Early and Mid-level Trainee Warriors.

Even escaped successfully from possible Peak Trainee Warrior. But this time, I have vague feeling in my heart that I don't have to run anymore. I can protect myself from any Peak Trainee Warriors or Class 3 Peak Monster.

My lips swept into a gentle arc as I gained some clarity. Then again a thought rose in my heart as I looked at the dancing purple arc. This is the first time I'm going to meet strangers.

I don't want to expose the lightning element yet. There is still time for the crimson hall tournament. Mr Jonathan said that I can use the lightning element during the competition but not before that.

Already, crimson hall and other hostile forces looking for me. If they know I'm a lightning element warrior, then the chances of getting attacked will further increase.

So I don't have any choice to be tight-lipped about it. And if there is an emergency, I will use my body strength to face it.

The next second, I noticed the pendant on my neck. Seeing that, I signed inwardly. This won't be useful anymore. I thought this pendant will block the probing from Elite Warriors.

But I realised, even among the elite warrior there is a difference in power. And not everyone is the same. When I recalled Elder Compton's probing. I guess, he didn't probe me deeply.

Otherwise, my lightning essence would have drawn his attention. Fortunately, he only checked my base slightly. Small sweat beads began to appear on my forehead.

No way! This time I was lucky. This can't be same for future. Especially, I'm going to meet the members of the exploration team. If someone there decided to probe me deeply, then my secret will be exposed.

I don't want to be chased by multiple warriors. I can't imagine myself in such a deadly situation. At this moment, I made a firm decision in my heart.

After getting out of this chamber, I will request Elder Thornton to buy me an upgraded version of the pendant. The stronger, the better.

After gaining some clarity, I rose from the platform and closed the timer.

"Creak" After opening the door, I stepped outside.

On the other hand, Elder Compton noticed the difference instantly.

"He is releasing special trainee level pressure," Compton mumbled under his breath.

"What happened?" Compton asked. Then he stepped forward to check Zack.

At the same time, Elder Thornton was dumbfounded. His friend was saying Zack will at least reach Trainee Warrior level for sure. Then what happened now?

He was quite shocked by Compton's exclamation. Then he also acted immediately.

When I decided to meet the two leaders, I heard a loud exclamation from ahead. My cultivation base must have been exposed. What to do now?

I won't let them probe me. When Elder Compton arrived in front of me, I hurriedly step backwards by saying, "Elder, Don't probe me without my consent."

Ricardo Compton was startled as he heard his words. Then he paused his movements and looked at Zack with a puzzling gaze. "This brat, what is he doing?" He muttered to himself.

Elder Thornton asked, "Zack, Are you all right?"

He reached right after Compton. He also heard Zack's words earlier, that's why he immediately asked before Compton could get displeased.

I sighed inwardly after hearing Elder Thornton's words. After calming down my racing heart, I looked at both of them before saying, "The treasure was good. I'm able to reach Peak-level Special Trainee successfully."

Compton was now sure that Zack was failed to reach the Trainee Warrior level. He has a complicated expression on his face. Even the average warrior can reach breakthrough multiple levels with this red heart peach fruit.

But this brat has reached only peak level from mid-level. Is there something wrong with the red heart peach? Multiple questions popped up in his mind.

Since Zack has told them not to probe, Compton respected his words. He wanted to hear from him, what had happened actually?
