Chapter 336
The monk was about to speak again to dissuade him, but Adrian had already stepped into the pool rich with spiritual energy without a backward glance.He clearly had no intention of listening.Emptiness let out a sigh as Adrian sat down cross-legged.Strangely, small bubbles began to rise in the milky-white water. The monk’s eyes widened.Why was the pool suddenly reacting like this?Before he could make sense of it, Adrian had already taken out the spirit beast core and swallowed it without hesitation.He closed his eyes and immediately entered a meditative state.With no other choice, Emptiness sat nearby to stand guard. There was nothing unusual around them—his role as protector amounted to little more than waiting.Out of boredom, he picked up a small stone.At that moment, the spring began to churn violently.Emptiness snapped to attention.During cultivation, there was always the risk of losing control—especially after consuming something as potent as a spirit beast core.And Adr

“I have to admit, this spirit beast core is so pure it almost feels unreal.”After cultivating for so long in such a hidden sanctuary, the Qiongqi’s core had reached an astonishing level of refinement.Adrian nodded, gazing at the bead-like core, as if it existed within a veil of clouds.“It’s quite beautiful.”Emptiness suddenly extended his hand toward Adrian, the core resting quietly in his palm.“I retrieved it for you—how will you thank me?”Adrian answered without thinking, “I’ll treat you to a meal.”Given the value of a spirit beast core, such a response would have been almost insulting to anyone else.But for Emptiness, it was exactly what he wanted.“Mr. Doyle, you’re a delightfully straightforward man!”“Here—take your core.”As Adrian accepted it, he could still feel the heat radiating from its surface.The core resembled a flawless piece of craftsmanship, perfect beyond compare.Even the wealthiest or most powerful individuals in the world would be driven mad at the sight

Emptiness nodded vigorously. It was more than useful—it was extraordinary.To call it timely aid would be no exaggeration.After all, he was clad in nothing but a thin monk’s robe. With this staff in hand, he no longer had to fear the chilling aura of the Qiongqi.“Now then—it’s time for my counterattack!”He began murmuring an incantation under his breath. At once, the staff shimmered with a radiant golden glow.An unseen force seemed to take hold of the dark, unassuming rod, and in an instant, it blazed with resplendent light.Now!Adrian instantly understood what Emptiness was doing. In a flash, he appeared at the Qiongqi’s flank and launched a fresh wave of attacks.Under the combined assault of Adrian and the staff, the Qiongqi let out furious roars.The coordination between them formed a deadly angle—no matter which direction the beast turned, it could not escape the relentless strikes that followed.With Emptiness controlling the staff from afar and Adrian pressing in close com

Emptiness grinned. “With spiritual energy this dense, not taking a bath would be a waste!”“Mr. Doyle, come join me!”Adrian pictured the scene of two grown men soaking together and shuddered.“No. You go ahead.”Seeing how decisively Adrian refused, Emptiness dropped the matter.Adrian surveyed the cavern and soon noticed something unusual.“It seems this place once bore traces of human cultivation.”Unbothered, Emptiness quickly stripped off his clothes, baring himself completely in no time.“That’s only natural. I wouldn’t abandon a place like this either.”He had a point. Whoever had once cultivated here must have either ascended beyond this world—or perished.The scarcity of spiritual energy in the Novaland Republic was precisely why Divine-tier cultivators were so rare.To stumble upon such a place was nothing short of a blessing.Just as Emptiness leapt toward the spring, a sudden disturbance rippled through the water.A monstrous head emerged, followed by an enormous body.A f

The moment Adrian left his seat, the monk hurriedly stuffed a few more mouthfuls into his mouth and jogged after him.“Mr. Doyle, where are you going? Wait for me…”After swallowing, he still looked faintly regretful.“I’m not even full yet—where are we heading?”Adrian didn’t have time to answer. He took the elevator straight down to the hotel lobby.Maizart was already waiting in the lounge area.“Mr. Doyle!”“Good morning, Mr. Maizart. Shall we set off now?”The monk looked puzzled. “Set off where?”Maizart glanced at the monk who had suddenly appeared, uncertain what to make of him.Adrian quickly made the introductions. “This is… Monk, what’s your name?”The monk brought his palms together in greeting. “This humble monk goes by the name Emptiness.”Adrian couldn’t help but think the name suited him not at all.He continued, “This is Mr. Maizart, a leading magnate in the jade industry of the Ganz Kingdom.”“We’re heading to a jade mine shortly—one that belongs to Mr. Maizart.”Mai

Marcus Sanders immediately caught the hint and hurriedly handed over a card.“This is merely a token of appreciation for your efforts. Rest assured, Masters—once the matter is accomplished, I will reward you generously.”The head of the Davidson family exchanged glances with the other two patriarchs and rose as well, offering their own contributions.The heads of the Kirk and Taylor families were more straightforward, each presenting an additional card.“Masters, if you help us resolve this trouble, it is only right that we provide annual offerings to your temple in the future.”Master Darkshade accepted the bank cards, a satisfied smile spreading across his face.“Very well. That can certainly be arranged.”Marcus Sanders’ delight was written all over him as he continued.“This time, Grayson Foster, the young master of the Foster family from the provincial capital, has heard of our plan to deal with Adrian and wishes to lend his support.”Soon, several martial artists who appeared to
