Chapter 12 - Rank 2

Chapter 12 - Rank 2

Three weeks later

--

It was almost midnight, the noise of the crickets combined with the silence of the night was soothing. But Shai Yang didn't focus on that, he was sitting on the bed with his attention focused on its opening.

The Crystal Walls of the opening were full of cracks, it looked like they would break at any moment. The Primitive Essence in its opening was less than 20% now, but Shai Yang kept sending it against the crystal wall.

By the time Shai Yang's Primitive Essence reached 15%, the opening's crystal walls broke and a new membrane wall of light formed, and Light Red Iron Primitive Essence.

Primitive Essence from the Rank 2 Early Stage was four times better than the Primitive Essence from the Level 1 Peak Stage. Of course, Primitive Stones cost increased from 8 to 32.

"Finally Rank 2."

'It took me more than five months to reach this level, but that was only possible because I had a lot of resources and a Grade A talent. If I were a Medium-sized Clan it would take about ten months to reach Rank 2 with my aptitude .'

'I only have 270 Primitive Stones at the moment. I get 20 from the Academy a week, but I spend 2 to feed the Inspiring Thought Gu and another 16 to cultivate.'

'But now this cost of Primitive Stones, making each time more inefficient to cultivate with Primitive Stones, in the end I will only depend on my own talent.'

'Now I need to get my third Gu.'

One day later at the yard

--

"Elder, I reached Rank 2."

Shai Yu replied in surprise.

"Not bad Shai Yang worthy of the Fourth Elder's son."

Shai Yang rolled his eyes.

"As you reached Rank 2 you are entitled to your rewards. You will receive 50 Primitive Stones and will be entitled to choose a Level 2 Gu from the Clan Treasure. I will arrange everything, wait until tomorrow after class."

--

The next day

--

Shai Yu took Shai Yang to the Clan Treasure. It was an underground tunnel, it was in the Clan administrative area.

The admin area was in the center of Clan Shai City, was surrounded by a wall, and its entrance was guarded by two Level 3 Gu Masters.

In addition to the Clan Treasurep there was also the Clan Leader's house, and the Elders' Gathering Hall, each of these places was guarded by a pair of Level 3 Gu Masters.

Shai Yu showed the Elder Token and they allowed them to enter the Clan Treasure.

"Shai Yang go ahead and you can choose your Gu you can enter the Level 2 Gus room, but not the Level 3 room."

"Yes Elder."

After going through the door Shai Yang started looking at the Level 1 Gu Worms, but soon ignored them and went to the second room through the door at the end of the first room.

The second room had a plethora of Level 2 Gus, Shai Yang walked to Gus's Path of Wisdom session.

After looking for a while, he grabbed a Gu that looked like a small black snail.

"This is Level 2 Wisdom Obstacle, it uses thoughts to create Obstacles and protect Gu Master. If I use Vajra thoughts the defense will be greater than using ordinary thoughts, it's a suitable Gu Worm for me."

When Shai Yang arrived at the entrance to Clan Treasure Shai Yu spoke while pointing to a door on the right.

"After that door are the Gu Worm recipes, you can stay there and check the Gu Recipes of Level 1 and 2 for three hours, and in that bag are the 50 Primitive Stones."

"Thank you Elder."

3 days later

The Wisdom Obstacle Gu had already been refined by Shai Yang, he was testing its effects.

Several golden dots were scattered around Shai Yang and were constantly moving, so it wouldn't be easy for opponents to find an opening to attack.
