Sam stayed there for three days and finished the designs. They are not some new designs that he created out of blue. They are already premade and most of them are the designs done by the students and other designers within the Dusk organization. They are not even his own designs.
When the leader of the Primate sect looked at the designs he was ecstatic. Sam killed around nine elders. Generally, that kind of enmity wouldn't go away that easily. Even Sam had forced them into the contract, they would still hold the resentment.
But the Primate sect leader lost the resentment immediately. He didn't care if Sam had killed the elders, he only cared that he has new cards in his sect that could help them prosper even more.
"From today, onwards you guys will be able to earn more from what I provided to you. You will be giving me the ten percent share of the gross income you have with the help of these things. And with that ten percent, you will open an orphanage. From infants to teenagers, whether they have awakened or not, they would welcome in the orphanage and they would be trained once they are awakened.
If they were to reach the requirements of your sect, they will join the Primate sect, if not they can stay in the orphanage until the Great realm cultivation stage. They would contribute to developing the organization.
Sooner or later, a few people from my team will come and they will take over the orphanage part of it, so you don't have to worry too much.
Do you understand?"
"Yes, Sir."
"As for your regular hierarchy and partnership with the Golden Silk sect, just let it go as it did before. But every disciple you send there should be a spy if they ever recruit anyone from this site, that person who be a spy for you and in turn for me."
"Yes, Sir."
Sam nodded in satisfaction and got the list of the forbidden places within the realm. When he looked through he understood most of the locations have nothing useful to him. They would have been useful if he has his previous body, but currently, he doesn't have other elements, and ingesting other elemental energy substances is completely useless.
After going through all of them, he only had one place left to visit.
The Primal Valley.
Sam made his way there and reached it in three days. The surrounding areas of the Primal valley are completely empty. They are devoid of all living creatures. Except for the trees and the grass, all the other creatures are gone.
Sam entered the valley directly without much fear. He is a bit vigilant though. No matter how confident he is, this is indeed a new place and he doesn't know exactly what kind of danger he is going to face.
He spread his spiritual sense as much as possible as he walked forward. Soon, he sensed something, the energy within the valley is extremely pure and dense. Every breath he took made him feel refreshed.
But along with that, he also sensed a threat. He tapped the staff and a barrier appeared around him.
*BAM*
A large force hit the barrier at the rear. He looked around to see a large ape looking at Sam viciously and to his surprise, it is a creature of Astral Plane Transcendence, even though it is in the initial stage, this is the strongest creature, he has seen in a while.
This is called the Primal Diamond Ape. Many people will mistake that it is a creature that has some earth elemental variation related to diamonds, but no, the dame diamond comes from the shape of their joints.
They are shaped sharply like diamonds and when the enemies were hit, they would be in for hell.
Sam saw first hand as the fist stayed on the barrier for a brief moment, how those diamond fists look.
The ape jumped backward as it looked at Sam with vigilance and hatred.
Sam is clearly stronger than the ape, but he still wanted to try his luck with a sneak attack as it has a great chance of succeeding, but now the surprise element is gone. The ape can only fight and hope that Sam leaves the valley.
So, it started attacking.
Sam's barrier was strong though, the ape wasn't able to penetrate it even after so many hits, but soon it seemed to have realized something. It latched itself onto the barrier and started smashing its elbows at a single point.
Those diamond-like pointy elbows smashed the barrier after twelve hits that landed in three seconds and Sam was really surprised by it.
The Ape landed straight at the staff and grabbed a hold of it tightly. It knew that Sam's barrier came from that staff, so it is adamant in taking it away first.
Sam just smiled and the top section of the staff, the part that is right below the handle and has a square cross-section opened up. A large rectangular protrusion spanning the whole length of that section came out and energy gathered at it.
The ape became vigilant and jumped to the side, but an energy beam came out of it and scratched past the side of the ape removing a chunk of its flesh before hitting the cliff wall behind it.
*BOOM*
A large explosion happened to make the whole valley quake and the rubble resulted in the explosion spreading everywhere along with dust.
Sam used his barrier to shield himself from all of it and when the dust settled, he could see the ape huddled itself in a corner with the side of its abdomen bleeding profusely.
It didn't dare move forward and Sam went to the middle of the valley without any obstructions.
There is a large pond in the middle and there is a tree on the bank of it.
The water in the pond is glowing with silvery-white light. The water even appeared a bit milky to look at and the tree has some fruits that are ripe and they looked like pears but with extreme white color.
This pond is the reason for that pure energy atmosphere within the surroundings and these fruits are the result of the nourishment given by the pond.
It is obvious what this ape is guarding so adamantly.
Sam thought for a moment plucked two of the four ripe fruits as well as a few gallons of water from the pond before leaving the place. He doesn't need all of it. These kinds of resources will become useless as they take more and more of it.
He stored them in the spatial ring before leaving the valley. He even threw a recovery potion for the ape before going away.
The ape hurriedly walked to the pond and when it saw that the pond is still there and the tree is also completely intact, it was relieved.
It went towards the pond and drank some water after drinking the potion clumsily. It looked in awe as it saw the wound recover.
Sam went back to Gravin's realm to check the progress of the products and when he noticed that there are no hitches, he finished some inscription work that needed to be done for the finished parts and once again went after the dormant soul.
But now, the dormant soul is not even in a huddled sitting position, rather it is lying down huddled into itself while shivering in fright.
Sam didn't care much and started picking on it. Once again mental wrestling has begun and after an hour and taking some blows, Sam finally tore the soul apart.
He took a larger chunk this time and the soul became extremely transparent and the glow has become dim.
With another three to four tries, it would be completely gone.
Sam absorbed the soul piece he obtained and got some really great memories this time. Along with that, his mental energy also recovered a bit and his soul got stronger for some reason.
This time, he got even more useful information. Information regarding Sivan's cultivation technique and other fighting techniques, including his mediocre battle experience.
Sam knew that Sivan hadn't battled much in years. But he didn't expect that it would be this bad.
The battle experience is so little to the point he felt a bit ashamed to be in this body for a bit.
Sivan only learned how to use his energy to defend himself from the attacks and he could barely make any attacking moves.
He mostly used the energy to manifest some physical attacks, like a punch, or an ax cleave, a hammer smash, or something.
He does use energy bullets, but he barely even used them.
Most of the fighting in his life is done by someone else.
Particularly that guy named Butler Si. Sam couldn't help but sigh at this pathetic guy's life.
At least, he got the cultivation technique and other required information though, he could use this to cultivate and increase his strength.
