Cultivating In Energy Spring

 "How did you control such powerful Remnant Power?" Mashia asked in a shocked voice. After all, she knew the best that to control a Remnant Power of a Source Realm expert requires the might of someone in the Spirit Realm.

 "That is my secret, that I will tell in the future," Ryker answered, prompting the dragon girl to huff in exasperation. 

 Nevertheless, it morphed into excitement. "With this Remnant Power, we don't have to worry about anything coming in and bothering us," she exclaimed.

 "Yes, and this Remnant Power could last about 4 weeks or so, enough for us to gain a lot from here, in fact-" Ryker took out the Hidden Ancient Mansion and opened the portal.

 He quickly sent a Soul Message to the ones that could benefit from cultivating here. From the portal, Ina, Era, Miriam, Shuri, Lisha, Rina, Hylla, Brea, Eris, and Myna exited it, where they all gasped from the concentration of energy in the area.

 "Such a strong energy, where are we?" Hylla asked, looking around with great awe.

 "We are at an Energy Spring. The energy here should be enough for all of us to raise our cultivation realm," Mashia replied.

 "Looks like Tashirn is about to do something," Myna noted. They all turned their attention to the Giant Tiger, who looked at the carcass of the Spirit Giant Tiger with interest.

 The Genesis Beast then opened its mouth, making the blood of the Spirit Beast exit the body and enter its gaping maw.

 As the Genesis Beast consumed the blood, it let out a pained roar before curling itself and slowly began to absorb the energy from the Energy Spring.

 Watching the Genesis Beast begin to cultivate, the other women looked at each other and followed its action. After all, it is unlikely for them to find such a good cultivation spot in the future, at least where there is no one competing with them for it.

 Considering the fact they did not see Ryker unleashing the Remnant Power of a Source Realm expert, and the fact they are too weak to notice the might protecting them, it is no surprise they are a bit puzzled by the lack of competition.

 Neither Mashia nor Ryker find it necessary to tell them about it, after all, not like it will help them in the future.

 As the other women started to cultivate, Ryker turned his attention to the Giant Tiger before taking out a pill.

 "Take this," he threw the pill into Tashirn's mouth, the Genesis Beast didn't know what it was but accepted it nonetheless. After all, it is something given by her Human Companion, so it must be helpful for her.

 As she swallowed the pill, she soon felt her blood boiling, seemingly making her blood purer. She would have let out an excited roar but the pain and the fact she could feel there are time limit to said purifying made it so she did not dare to do so.

 As she absorbed the efficiency of the pill, she soon felt her bloodline improving. Combining the fact she had just consumed the blood of a Spirit Giant Tiger, she felt like her ascension to a Spirit Beast would come soon.

 As Tashirn began to improve, so did another member of the group. Hylla is already at the peak of Genesis Source, so, it is not a surprise the baptism of the Energy Spring would push her to the next realm.

 However, improving from one major realm to another major realm is hard, so, she slows down her cultivation and proceeds to improve her foundation first before tackling the breakthrough.

 While the women are cultivating, Ryker checks the carcass of the Spirit Giant Tiger. Sensing there is some blood remaining, he proceeds to gut the Spirit Beast carefully before taking out the blood.

 Despite the fact the Spirit Beast had already died, its blood still possessed some form of spirituality, making it so that it could move and react.

 However, as the blood comes from a dead Spirit Beast, it could do no harm to him. He took out a special vial and stored the blood.

 After all, there is still another Giant Tiger, even though it is still a cub. In the future, it might need the blood of a Spirit Giant Tiger so, better to prepare for it.

 He then proceeds to skin the Spirit Beast, taking it apart and splitting it accordingly. From the carcass, he was able to obtain the skin, claws, bones, and teeth.

 After all, those are still materials from a Spirit Beast, and so, will fetch a good price in the market. He planned to seek an auction house to auction the materials in the future.

 Now that there is nothing else, he gazes at the Energy Spring before taking a seat nearest to it. It seems the women has left the place for him, so he will not be polite about it.

 He then began to cultivate. If it was as amazing as Mashia told him, achieving the Genesis Lake realm should be possible.

 As they cultivate, day, turns to night, before turning to day, again. This repeated for several days before a week soon passed.

 After a week, Ina, Era, and Miriam opened their eyes. In just a week, they had gone from the Genesis Condensing to Genesis Foundation, showing the great effect of the Energy Spring.

 The only reason for them to wake up so soon compared to the others is because they still need to eat. After filling their bellies, they immersed themselves in cultivation once more.

 Another week passed and another group of people opened their eyes. This time, it is Shuri, Lisha, and Rina, who all are at the Genesis Foundation. Their time at the Energy Spring had pushed them to the peak of the Genesis Foundation.

 They merely stopped to make sure their foundation was stable and took some bite. While Genesis Foundation could last a long time without food, it is still uncomfortable to forgo eating after getting used to it.

 After having a brief meal, they solidify their foundation first before cultivating again.

-x-

 2 more weeks passed, and another group of people opened their eyes. This time, it is Mashia, Myna, and Eris, the one who possessed cultivation at the Genesis Core.

 Considering how hard it is to improve one minor realm the higher the major realm is, it will shock many for the three had reached the peak of Genesis Core.

 Unlike the two previous groups, they did not require food as the Core would transform the energy around them into qi, which acts almost similar to food. 

 After stabilizing their foundation, they continued their cultivation. After all, they should not waste their time here.
