Cultivation Through Artifacts

"Naturally! Although we don\'t have everything in our possession that the universe could provide, I am pretty sure if you tell me what you wish to get in exchange I can get it."

Khal nodded and thought Roice was quite good when it came to business. Some people would occasionally fall into the biggest mistake they could ever make during trading and that would be offering something instead of asking what the other party needed or wanted in exchange.

Such a misstep could immediately give rise to a slight conflict between the two parties or even worse, losing the opportunity to get their hands on the items they wished to obtain.

But luckily Roice didn\'t make this amateur mistake as he instantly asked Khal what he wished in exchange, which was the basics of the basics when someone wished to bargain.

Khal touched his chin to ponder what he wished to ask for, which at Roice just remained silent and waited patiently.

\'What do I need? I have powerful weapons, the ability to learn any type of technique by a glance and I can get my hands on Essence at any moment. I don\'t really have anything I want, or maybe...\' as Khal was thinking he raised his gaze and asked, "How about an armor? Do you have something which is equivalent to the Space Orb in value?"

Indeed, what Khal needed at the moment was a layer of protection. Although he could surpass everyone on his level and many above it, if he were to meet someone that was several stages above him he would definitely have a hard time surviving, and he has yet to think about escape.

That is why Khal thought an armor that was strong enough to keep his life intact would be a must, and this was the greatest opportunity for him to get his hands on one.

"An armor?" Roice closed his eyes to recall something in his mind before he opened them once again and nodded, "Yeah, as a fact, we have one. Although we have planned to destroy it and make some extremely powerful weapons out of its materials, it seems that will change."

"Can I have a look at it? I wish to see what kind of armor it is before I decide." Khal said calmly which at Roice nodded and smiled.

"That is only natural. However, as it is currently on our home planet, far away from this one, I hope you can come with us."

"Sure. Except for hunting for beasts, I had no other plans, so I can change my schedule. Besides, I am curious to see what kind of place the Fairy Race leaves on so it will be a great experience."

"Haha! Perfect! Then please follow me." Roice waved his hand to the soldiers who immediately stood into position and with Roice on the front, they began to walk away.

The group walked through the dense forest while Roice chatted with Khal, hoping to know him a little bit better as in his eyes Khal was somewhat an interesting individual. Anyone that could act so calmly before him, someone who hailed from a strong race and was known by millions thanks to his reputation as one of the strongest Array Master throughout the Second Realm, could only be someone powerful, no matter if they were a human or another race.

Also, the fact that Khal\'s body emitted no aura further indicated that Khal was not as simple as one would think he is. And with his eyes and senses which became sharper by the years, Roice could understand Khal was strong, much stronger than what he showed to others around him.

The group walked for a minute and soon arrived before this huge open space of field where a spaceship that was as enormous as a football stadium could be seen standing majestically.

Although this was his very first time seeing a spaceship with such an advanced look in his life, Khal knew it was the creation of a race named the Hundred Hands, a race which Blessing allowed them to create any type of weapons, tools, items, or armors just out of mere raw ores in minutes!

As a fact, if it weren\'t for them, none of the races in and above the Second Realm would have the power to travel through space, or at least not until they learned a powerful technique that let them do so.

After examining the spaceship with amazement, Khal followed Roice and Darla inside and sat down on a comfy seat that made all his muscles relax slightly just under a few seconds.

\'Good chair\' Khal closed his eyes with a slight smile plastered on his face, while Roice walked next to one of the soldiers behind the panels and ordered, "Let\'s get back home."

"Yes, my Lord!" the soldier nodded and without further ado made the spaceship float above the ground before bursting away into the unknown.

The Second Realm, different from the First Realm, was an entire universe filled with systems instead of a single planet where several races existed, each occupying varied areas that could range from a single solar system or planet all the way to a whole stellar system.

For instance, while the Berserkers only possess a few solar systems under their belts, the Fairy Race has several hundred under their control, each of their planets filled with rich resources that could make anyone feel envious and start a war over them if the Fairies wouldn\'t have been a stronger race.

Especially after their home planet, Planet Nia, which although was 70% a frozen wasteland, the habitat, the environment below the surface were on a whole other level! Everything that grew there, let it be plants or beasts, would evolve with a speed thrice as fast as they normally would, giving them a huge advantage when it comes to cultivating special herbs or growing strong beasts that could be tamed afterward.

And if things were not alluring enough, the ice crystals above the surface, which accumulated the pure frost air over the years could be easily harvested in large amounts and sold later to other races for other goods or simply keeping them for themselves to craft great armaments and tools in great numbers!

\'So that is Planet Nia. An azure gem floating in the vast nothingness..\' Khal thought calmly while he watched as the sky blue globe in the dark space became larger and large by the second as the spaceship he was in approached it with great speed.
