'Life Style, Second Form, Instant Recovery.'
Roan's hair turned black and white as he healed Zuo's body. With Rean's skill, bringing Zuo back to his shape wasn't anything hard to do, especially since their cultivation difference was so big. However, Zuo was still fatigued, so he wouldn't wake up until the next day.
A few hours later, somewhere else, Rean finally made his way back to the city where his group was working. "How is it? Did you finish setting up the antenna?"
Qia narrowed her eyes in response, saying, "How would we? The person responsible for the critical parts suddenly disappeared and left us hanging. You're the only Heaven-level Formation Master here, you know?"
Rean bitterly smiled after hearing that. "Ahem…of course, I knew that. Let's finish it, shall we?" Rean quickly talked with Qia and the others before beginning to work on his part of the project. Also, he made a mental note to himself. 'I need to help them enter the Nascent Soul Realm as soon as possible so that they can use Heaven-level Formations. As long as they have the cultivation, I'm confident I can let them reach that level. I can't keep working alone on these small runes forever.'
Sometime later, the antenna was finished, and the protection formations were put in place. "Alright, try to send and receive some messages now."
Things continued like that until Rean's group finally got all twenty antennas installed. Once that was done, they returned to the sect with all the disciples to try things out. Sure enough, they found many problems even though the project itself had worked. Well, it was not like they didn't expect it.
However, instead of working on the issues, Rean changed what the group what to do, saying, "I'll ask Roan to make a few Heaven-level Cross-Realm Pills. That will help Dian and Srevil, already in the Peak of the Core and Soul Fusion Realm, enter the Nascent Soul Realm." Sure enough, he immediately began to work on creating more Heaven-level Formation Masters.
Rean wanted to do that for Qia as well. Unfortunately, Qia was still in the Late Stage of the Core and Soul Fusion Realm. If they forced her cultivation to go up an entire stage with pills, her foundation was bound to suffer the consequences. "Qia, I can only tell you to focus on your cultivation for the next three months. Once you enter the Peak of the Core and Soul Fusion Realm using the right method, we can use a Heaven-level Cross-Realm Pill to let you enter the Nascent Soul Realm."
Qia didn't mind, though. "It's fine. Srevil and Dian should be enough to help you with the formations. Also, since you're helping them enter the Nascent Soul Realm, they will be in even more debt to the sect. Just go ahead and help the two."
Rean smiled in response after that. "Alright."
Dian and Srevil, obviously, couldn't thank Rean enough. Qia was right. They felt to be in great debt with the sect after that. In fact, they didn't mind it. Even if someone asked for them to leave without having to pay anything back, those two wouldn't do so. They understood that this was only the beginning.
Roan didn't like Rean's request, though. "Do you think the materials for Heaven Initial-level Cross-Realm Pills are easy to get? Even if I can concoct them without any issues, I don't have that many herbs. If you want me to do that, go outside and bring me more herbs."
Rean didn't like how Roan worded it either. "What about your herb garden in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm? Can't you use the herbs there? The World Essence Formation should be making them grow quite nicely."
"Forget about the garden," Roan said, unwilling to touch it. "The way the herbs there are growing up, they will definitely become materials above Heaven-level in a few years. I don't want to touch them."
Rean sighed, but Roan was adamant on not touching his own herb garden. "Fine! I'll head to Freedom City and see if I can get the herbs there."
One must remember that Freedom City was still the place where a lot of Nascent Soul and Soul Transformation Realm cultivators gathered, hoping to join the Freedom Sect at some point. There were bound to be a few cultivators there with the herbs Rean needed. He could make Heaven-level equipment, so he could trade for those. 'Dian and Srevil better work to the bones once I get the pills.'
The next day, the Freedom Sect sent some news out. Two Core and Soul Fusion Realm cultivators who had just joined the sect had broken through to the Nascent Soul Realm. That was thanks to one of its elders' pills, which made that bottleneck that haunted so many cultivators as thin as paper. Some of the cultivators outside knew who Dian and Srevil were. That only helped increase everyone's wishes to enter the Freedom Sect at any cost.
Rean also gave those two some Cultivation Stabilizing Pills to help out with the chaotic energy in their dantians. "You have two weeks to get it under control. I know that it's not enough to stabilize it completely, but it should be enough to not get in the way of your work anymore. Once that's done, I'll help you become Heaven Initial-level Formation Masters."
It would be a lie if Qia said she wasn't jealous of those two. Nevertheless, she knew her moment would eventually come.
While those things happened in the Freedom Sect and its territories, the world outside wasn't sitting still either. Many changes were constantly happening in Wringan Continent, with the emergence of new cities and countries led by cultivators. Malo kept receiving news of these places and constantly sent messages out, telling the new powers about the Freedom Sect.
According to Malo's plan, the idea was to make the Freedom Sect the go-to sect in Wringan Continent. With Fizer's name, the cultivators of the Demon Beast Continent immediately recognized it as well. The humans from the Zasfin territories didn't take it seriously, though. However, Malo didn't mind. "Everything has a start. They will come to understand that this is the center of power of the human world sooner or later."
