Finding Yanwu

Eisen went to a deserted restaurant and walked to a private room directly. There is a man in black, who also covered his face sitting at the table without doing anything.

Eisen took a seat at the table and placed a note on the table. When the other part saw the note, he immediately made eye contact and asked.

"What is the task?" The man asked in a hoarse voice.

"I need some beasts crippled. They are pets of a guy." Eisen replied.

"What level are the pets? What level is the guy? How many beasts?"

"they are at Peak of Level 1. Two panther type beasts. The guy is peak of the Level 3 Acolyte."

"Do you know, where he lives?"

Eisen took out a note of the address and passed it over. Then he said. "There is one thing. That guy is not ordinary. He is an inscription master, a formation master, an Artisan. His status is high. You better be cautious." Eisen warned.

The guy in black stayed silent for a minute and said. "The Price will be high."

"Sure."

While Eisen is plotting something to teach a lesson to Sam. The said person is back at his Mansion and went into the tower inside the divine dimension. Sam is right now inscribing on the Black cheongsam, he made for Kelly. After a few hours spent in the tower, he came outside and saw the night sky. He went to Kelly's room and passed over the dress and went back to sleep.

Kelly immediately ran downstairs to the Freya's room. That night the two ladies kept on bickering about whose dress is better.

Next day morning.

Sam is still sleeping soundly as sun rose up. Suddenly, a loud knocking sound woke him up. He opened the door with a displeased expression only to see, Freya standing there with an angry expression. He felt confused on how he pissed of this shameless chick.

"Sam, you are biased." Freya shouted halting his thoughts.

"What do you mean, I am biased?" He asked with even more confusion.

"You clearly made a better dress to Kelly. I want one too." She said as she crossed her hands across the chest.

Sam immediately understood what is happening and immediately shut the door without even replying.

When Freya was about to knock again, Sam's voice could be heard from other side of the door.

"If you knock one more time, I will take back the previous dress I gave you. Don't think I am bluffing. Try me if you dare."

As expected, she immediately stopped her actions. She gritted her teeth and stomped her feet in anger, before turning around and left.

Sam slowly washed up and walked downstairs only to see Freya continuously complaining to others about how unfair he was, when he shunned her at his room. Her tantrum stopped when she saw him coming down. When he sat there, she immediately averted her gaze refusing to talk.

"You do know that I have no obligation to make you dresses, right?" I already made you one on basis of my promise. Now, you are behaving as if you are entitled to get that dress. Do you really think you can afford the dress I gave you? I could auction it off to tens of thousands of spirit stones. Don't push your luck Freya. This is not your home, neither am I your family member who treats you like a princess and gives everything you need." Sam said in a cold voice from the side, silencing everyone's chatter. He stood up and turned towards Philip and said.

"I have something to do. I will be going out and I might not come back today. Take care of the Panthers." He said and left the mansion. Sam left the panthers and bulls in the yard in order to not arouse the suspicions of others. He said that he brought them the night he went to get the house deed. He then left them in the yard for themselves to play. Anyway, not many people will come to this secluded mansion. Or so he thought.

Sam left some shadow mice at the mansion and left with the rest of them to the Falcon Cliff. He wants to search for Yanwu as soon as possible. His mind is not at ease on finding that there is human near Yanwu, because he can't trust a human being that would be able to control his greed.

Sam slowly made his way to the northern region and entered the woods which separate the Falcon Cliff and the City. The woods didn't have any high-level beasts as this territory between the humans and the Whirlwind Falcons. Any high-level beast that vying for the territory has to bear the brunt of the both parties. By the time Sam crossed the woods, it is already noon. Just as he neared the foot of the cliff, he heard a voice in his head.

[Sam] This voice belonged to Yanwu. Sam could sense that Yanwu is not far away as their contract connection is effective within a certain range only. For now, based on their current cultivation level, the limit is within 500 metres. Sam looked around to see, if Yanwu is within the woods, but wasn't able to find out.

He closed his eyes and started concentrating on his connection with Yanwu, the connection is so faint, which means, Yanwu is at the very end of the range, after a few seconds Sam opened his eyes and looked at the cliff. He sensed that Yanwu is within the Cliff, but he doesn't know where exactly.

He started climbing the cliff. His speed was so slow, because his concentration is on sensing the location. After he climbed to a certain height he moved towards right side and between the high protrusions of the cliff, he saw a small opening, which can bare fit a single person, Sam immediately entered it and found himself in front of a rocky path. He started walking slowly and then found a junction where several paths are leading to different locations, he took a path and walked forward until he saw a familiar silhouette in a cave. Yanwu is in his original golden crow form and he is floating in the air as he faced a huge bird. Sam was a bit bewildered as he looked at the bird, he got an answer in his mind but he didn't dare to believe it.

{Sam} Yanwu greeted him as soon he saw.

"Yanwu." Sam also smiled as he embraced the golden crow. Sam then looked at the creature, in front of him and was a bit confused. Yanwu explained from the side.

{This is Sky. A roc with sky sovereign roc bloodline} Hearing this, Sam immediately thought.

'I am right. It really is a roc.' This is the only thought he has in mind.

"What happened to him?" He asked as he saw the roc sleeping and its expression of extreme pain. Sam observed closely and found out that the cultivation level of the roc is far higher than his.

{I will explain it later. First let us cultivate. I have a lot of energy stored.} Yanwu said and immediately started transmitting the fire elemental energy to him. Sam sat cross legged and then started digesting the energy along with Yanwu. He immediately broke through to the Level four Acolyte as he was at the edge for quite a long time. Meanwhile, Yanwu also broke through to the middle stage of Level 2. But they didn't open their eyes as there is a lot of unrefined energy left. Both of them sat still and started refining the energy. The spiritual core of Sam, was filled to brim and was forced to expand again, leading to another break through. Level 5 Acolyte. The energy still ran rampant and it finally stopped only when he was at the brink of breaking through the Level 6 Acolyte.

By the time they opened their eyes, it is already evening and Sun was already set. When Sam looked around the cave, he found two unfamiliar presence and immediately got alerted as he released his aura and about to attack.

{Sam wait} Yanwu shouted from side and he stopped himself from attacking. When Sam saw clearly who the other two were, he saw a young man who seemed to be in his early teens and another bird which seemed to be a whirlwind falcon which is at Level 1 on his side. The falcon is about same size of the young man. Sam stood normally as he sized them up when Yanwu introduced.

{That young man is Watt and that falcon is his friend, which he calls by the name Falck. He is the one who helped me write a letter for you.} Sam looked at the guy named Watt from top to bottom. He has a pale skin and lean figure. He looked a little timid as he didn't even dare to see Sam straight in the face. The Falck is indeed and a whirlwind Falcon and it seemed to have a certain connection with the boy. The boy is at the level 3 initiation. He seemed to be recently awakened.

"I am Sam" Sam introduced himself as he extended his hand for a hand shake. Watt slowly extended his hand forward and timidly shook his hand. Sam sat on the floor and asked Yanwu.

"So, what is the story here?"

{A few days back when I leaved the Starwood city to investigate something, this is the place I mentioned. I got a familiar energy impulse from this cave and when I came here, I saw the impulse came from Sky. By the time, these two guys are already here.} Yanwu pointed at Watt and Falck and continued.

{Sky sealed himself here and these two guys accidentally broke the seal which released the energy impulse. The impulse is very familiar to me as I have sensed the same type of energy when I was in higher realms.}

"You mean, that Sky is also from higher realms?" Sam asked a bit shocked. He is already a bit shocked that there is a higher realm being like Yanwu in this lower realm, now if he met another one, Sam would seriously doubt that whether there is an abnormality. But Sam's worries were unfounded.

{No, he is clearly from this realm. The Sky sovereign roc is indeed a higher being. But Sky is a normal Great roc with bloodline of Sky sovereign roc.}

"Is the impulse you sensed belong to that bloodline?"

{No, actually the energy I sensed is the reason why Sky is like that. He is affected by a fire poison, which is a special technique of Bifang bloodline. Seems that the place where Sky is from, there is a species with Bifang bloodline. If not for the fact that the other party is not a pure Bifang, Sky might have been dead by now.}

"So, why are you here now? How do you know these things?"

{Actually, Sky can wake up from time to time. But he won't be able to stay awake for a long time. I wanted to extract the fire poison from his body. Not only will it help him to save his life, it will also give a raise in cultivation level. We can absorb the fire poison directly.}

"How long do we have?" Sam asked as he looked at Sky.

{He doesn't have much time left. I was unable to take out a lot of energy as I have low capacity. If we work together, we might be able to do that. But if we delay, he might not make in past three days.}

Sam stood up and slowly touched Sky as he started using his observation. He was able to see each and every cell of the giant creature. But each and every cell is being affected by a severe fire element energy as they became weaker. Half of the organs are already half burnt and ready to collapse. The beast core is also being affected as it is reducing his cultivation level. If not for sky's high cultivation level, he would have been dead.
