Chapter 45 Argon’s Lucky Encounter (EDITED)
Soon after, due to his spirit essence exhaustion, the dragon spirit returned to his body.
With injuries all over his body, Argon looked lifeless like a soaked mouse.
Thus, his consciousness drifted into darkness.
Unknown Time Later…
As soon as Argon came back to his senses, his thoughts fluctuated like a weakling.
However, he soon woke up and found himself covered with many wounds, sprawled out under a big fallen tree trunk in that huge forest area.
It was fortunate that there was no beast around; perhaps they were scared away by the dragon’s aura. Otherwise, he may not be alive now.
Through hazy visions, Argon fixed his gaze on the crystal nearby. It was still lying in rock debris beside the Earth Lion’s corpse, which was torn up and looked wretched to behold.
Dragging his injured body to that area, he looked at the crystal with caution.
Soon enough, his fingers clutched and grabbed the crystal, and he then started to absorb its spirit essence, healing his severe internal injuries right after that.
With the abundant spirit essence, Argon began to meditate to recover his health. However, he stopped because the surrounding area looked too quiet, and he felt a powerful spirit essence aura coming from some distance.
He was surprised to discover that there was a cave situated in a somewhat visible location, covered by thick bushes, and located beside several giant trees.
Stepping closer and checking his surroundings, he entered deeper as his senses detected massive amounts of spirit essence accumulating around the corner.
Reaching a tunnel, Argon hesitated to move further due to mysterious aura fluctuations, but he still proceeded onward with determination and curiosity building within him, step by step reaching inside the spiritual cave.
Once Argon advanced, he then sensed enormous spirit essence all around the pathway, and the density accumulated was exhilarating compared to anywhere he had gone or gained before.
Filled with overwhelming emotions, Argon felt that the rich spirit essence around him helped in advancing his cultivation, as he felt comfortable using it to heal and stabilize his injuries at the same time.
Afterwards, following the pathway further, the walls started to shine with brilliance as blue crystals glowed. They produced spirit essence everywhere, available in abundance, decorating and lining upwards across the tunnel ceiling, floor, walls, and corners.
A closer inspection revealed they contained concentrated natural elemental power embedded in this spirit cave.
Moreover, when Argon stepped forth, he activated unknown array formations by mistake, soon trapping him in a secluded dimension space and turning it pitch black within.
Thinking something bad had happened all of a sudden, Argon tried hard and circulated a cultivation method as his flames started burning, illuminating the path within the darkened space area.
Examining them, the same crystals seemed to absorb elements everywhere.
Once again, as he examined, taking precautions, he found that these wondrous formations integrated various attributes together and flowed inside; it was quite unexpected.
“So this natural formation helps in absorbing the elemental spirit essence based on the one who practices it. Given that it’s very rare to get a specific elemental spirit essence, this is a unique treasure trove to find.” Argon thought in his heart with excitement.
Without hesitation, Argon right away channeled his cultivation technique to activate the arrays. Soon, the elemental energy followed suit, making him absorb certain elemental spirit essences with no effort, unlike previous repeated attempts at gathering and collecting what was needed to progress cultivation practice.
These crystalline blue structures supported Argon well, advancing his cultivation faster than he had ever experienced in all of life.
Soon after that, he gained a comprehensive understanding of the fire attribute, combining it well with the fire element spirit arts.
Closing his eyes while sitting with crossed legs, at first he started to use the spirit essence to heal his severe injuries, recovering and restoring a complete and healthier body.
Further afterwards, he channeled and cultivated the fire essence with vigor, letting the fiery energy seep into his body.
Countless bits of spiritual fire spirit essence floated upward around his figure and moved by themselves as imagined, accumulating in succession and assisting his cultivation.
Soon, Argon got engulfed in an immense amount of spirit essence, covering his whole body and forming an intense red aura.
Spirit essence continued to augment with no restraints. Improving his cultivation foundation and solidifying it with ease. Making the process easy and steady without any abrupt complications.
Dum..! Dum..!
After that, Argon’s cultivation increased a great deal, moving from the high-stage spirit foundation realm to the peak-stage spirit foundation realm.
Roar!
His dragon spirit came out of his dantian, roaring and dominating in delight. Fôll0w current novÊls o/n n/o/(v)/3l/b((in).(c/o/m)
It also started to absorb the fiery fire essence in its surroundings.
The dragon started to grow in size, and its scales started to glow with more profound and mysterious runes engraved on them.
After achieving a breakthrough in cultivation, Argon closed his eyes, resting.
Thinking about his Uncle Oswald, his determination grew further to improve his strength and take revenge on the ones who framed him for the crimes he wouldn’t commit.
“I will take revenge! Once I achieve a stage higher than anybody else, I will make them suffer for their crimes.” Argon vowed, recalling the injustice his uncle Oswald was suffering.
Thinking about his terrible fate in Prison World angered Argon. From childhood until now, Uncle Oswald was someone he owed respect to for guiding him. Furthermore, despite having an unfortunate childhood experience as an orphan, he grew up enjoying positive companionship and warm memories, living a better life than imagined.
Even though Argon tried pleading support from multiple sources and expressed facts many times to others regarding Oswald’s innocence, everybody declined it without taking action, with reasons of insufficient evidence or weak power level holding him back.
Even Jacob didn’t understand and doubted Oswald’s innocence, brushing aside Argon’s frustration.
This frustrated Argon on an emotional level. Thus, he vowed in his heart to achieve strength that surpasses others and somehow save Uncle Oswald.
With such strong thoughts of wanting revenge for Oswald, the dragon spirit let out a long hum with its fangs glistening with resoluteness and viciousness as the spirit essence ran riot around.
Argon paced up his cultivation efforts and worked with due diligence to train and develop his dragon spirit, eager to break free from everyone’s manipulation and oppression.
He was confident enough to achieve great heights and acquire the power and status to confront evil.
Following that, he dedicated all his efforts to improving his strength.
