“What’s going on?” Xi Bolai seemed to have thought of something, This was also the third time he had been shocked today. “What’s going on again? It has been too strange tonight…”
Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night for Xi Bolai. In an instant, Xi Bolai had sensed the energy emitted by a treasure, but it disappeared very quickly again. However, based on Xi Bolai’s experience, this was definitely not an illusion.
The Nicholas family clan had been too abnormal today. Xi Bolai had sensed several abnormalities in a single night, yet he could not find out what was abnormal.
Xi Bolai then recalled that all the members of the Nicholas family clan who had been lost outside had returned today. He thought that it might have something to do with those people, but when he closed his eyes and prepared to sense it again, he could not feel anything at all. This time, he had gained
nothing again. Seeing that the sky had tured dark, Xi Bolai stopped caring about this matter.
In the ancestral hall of the Nicholas family, Romo sealed the top-grade Spirit Sword Embryo he had just obtained into Lily’s little wooden sword. Although the little wooden sword was not a very good hilt, it could be used as a receptacle for Lily to get used to the Sword Embryo first. He would then find a
suitable hilt for Lily in the future.
Moreover, with Romo’s sealing technique, outsiders would definitely not be able to tell the secret behind this little wooden sword.
After he was done with the top-grade Spirit Sword Embryo, Romo took a careful count of the remaining rewards. There were also three Aptitude Strengthening Talismans. The one given by the System had not been used, so there were a total of four.
Romo used two of them on Lily at once. This way, Lily’s aptitude would increase to that of a genius.
However, a genius-level aptitude was already the limit for an ordinary constitution. If Lily wanted to advance further, she would have to have a special constitution.
Romo had once heard from others that there was a type of innate spirit body which was already at the Innate Realm at the moment of birth. Furthermore, it had the aptitude of a genius. Furthermore, this aptitude was even higher than the genius-aptitude level of ordinary people.
‘There were only a handful of such people. However, for everyone who wanted to reach the peak level, talent was only one aspect, and one’s own hard work was the most important. No matter how talented one was, without hard work, it would all be completely in vain.
It could be said that almost no one could grow up relying solely on his own talent. Most of such people were also proud and arrogant, and they usually failed along the way.
Currently, the Nicholas family had two genius-level descendants. One was Ron, whom Romo was already slowly nurturing , and the other was Lily. Romo also planned to nurture her well.
As for the remaining two Aptitude Strengthening Talismans, Romo had not thought of who to use them on yet, so he placed them in his inventory for the time being.
There were still three Hundredfold Cultivation Speed Talismans, plus two more in the inventory, there were a total of five. Romo used one each for Norton and Zoro. This could be considered as a reward for their successful completion of the clansmen search mission.
For the ten pieces of Tenfold Cultivation Speed Talismans, one each was given to Kathleen, Jimmy, Lina, and Charles respectively, with the remaining six also placed in the inventory.
There was also a Faith Doubling Talisman, which he had no use of for the time being. The previous Faith Doubling Talisman was still in effect, so he placed this piece also in his inventory.
In the end, there were only the nine Dream Appearing Talismans left. Romo quickly used them on Zoro. On the one hand, he gave great affirmation to this clansmen search mission, and on the other hand, he instructed him on the arrangements to be made for the descendants who had returned.
‘As such, the night passed quickly.
This was the first time Zoro had been visited by his Old Ancestor in a dream. When he got up early in the morning, Zoro was very surprised and quickly told Norton. After all, the Old Ancestor had only visited Norton in his dream previously.
Zoro was probably showing off by telling Norton this news.
“Not bad. I knew it. The Old Ancestor will be fair to everyone,” Norton said with a smile. “It looks like you have contributed a lot in the search for our lost clansmen. That’s why the Old Ancestor visited you in your dream.”
“Yes, that’s what our Old Ancestor said.” Zoro was actually a little embarrassed to hear Norton say these words.
“What else did our Old Ancestor say to you? It can’t be that he visited your dream to praise you, right?” Norton wanted to understand the Old Ancestor’s next instructions.
“Old Ancestor also told me about the arrangements for our clansmen who had returned,” Zoro replied.
“Is that so? It’s time to make some arrangements,” Norton said thoughtfully. “What kind of arrangements have our Old Ancestor made?”
“Old Ancestor said that the nine people who had been found are all descendants of the Nicholas family. That little baby is also our descendant. His name is Formick. Old Ancestor did not say anything about much. He just wanted us to be more attentive to them and to take care of them so that they can
integrate into the family as soon as possible. Then, he can teach them some magical powers for cultivation as appropriate,” Zoro said.
After Zoro had briefly explained the Old Ancestor’s arrangements, the two of them also discussed some relevant matters briefly as well as announced the Old Ancestor’s arrangements at breakfast.
After hearing the Old Ancestor’s arrangements, Aaron and the rest could not be more excited. It was already very good that they could live in such a good environment. They had not expected that they could still learn magical power.
Thereafter, they went together to pay respects to the Old Ancestor, and then Zoro taught them some elementary spells.
Although the trial this time had ended, the local area was still very lively. In fact, it was even more lively than when the trial was still ongoing.
For the treasures found in the trial realm, some cultivators would retum to this place to sell some of the treasures they did not think would be of use. Once a rare treasure appeared, it would cause a discussion.
Everyone was also discussing some information about the trial realm. Whether it was true or false, it became the topic for everyone’s post-meal discussions.
However, it was just some gossip about who had gotten out successfully and which family’s junior had not gotten out, who had killed who in the trial realm, who had snatched whose treasure, and who had been the first to come out.
However, unlike the usual, there was a sensational piece of news this time, which was that none of the trial participants from the four large family clans had gotten out, and they had all died in the trial realm, and the person who had killed them was Ron from the Nicholas family clan.
This type of news that had caught everyone’s attention usually spread like wildfire. In less than half a day, it had already spread everywhere. Everyone had even exaggerated the story.
Speaking of the four large family clans, there was probably no one who did not know them. This time, the participation of the descendants of the four large family clans in the trial realm had attracted a lot of attention. Everyone was discussing the treasures they would obtain. Almost no one had expected
them to lose their lives in the trial realm..
