My Cultivation System

Chapter 249 - Valen City's Successor



Master Valen and the other 48 city masters are the wandering cultivators who roam from one world to another.

The reason why they roam from one world to another was that their homeworld was destroyed by some invaders who took cultivation resources from their worlds and destroyed their worlds for its soul.

Every world gives birth to consciousness and with the time that consciousness grows and becomes the souls of the world. It is coveted by many cultivators and that is the reason why invaders search for low-level worlds without the protection of an immortal because it is easy to invade.

All 49 city masters belong to 49 different worlds who were acquainted while roaming from one world to another.

Later they became sworn brothers and whether it was their luck or destiny, they found this world where humans constantly lived in fear because of the spirit beast hordes.

After killing many spirit beasts, they started establishing their own cities all over the world.

"What?"

When they heard Master Valen\'s words, they were shocked and looked at Master Valen to clearly explain them.

"I was just like you, always thinking about revenge on those who destroyed my world."

Soon, Master Valen sat on his chair and started explaining, "Our constant thinking of revenge is obstructing us from entering the grandmaster realm which I got to know today when I was on the verge of breaking into the grandmaster realm."

"Sigh"

Everyone understood what Master Valen was saying and could not help but sigh because they were only living for revenge.

However, they forget they were the city masters and an entire city is dependent on them.

"It\'s not wrong to think about revenge, we are now the city masters and we created the cities to distract ourselves from the loss of our worlds."

Master Valen finished his advice and stood up from his chair.

"Yes, brother. We will try our best to not think about revenge all the time."

Soon, all the city masters who were stuck in the master realm for the last 10 years nodded their heads after hearing Master Valen\'s words.

For them, Master Valen is the glue that connects all of them. So, everyone nodded their heads for his advice.

"Let\'s come to the topic of why I asked you to come here today."

While walking around the table, Master Valen came to another topic as he continued, "Today, we won a war against an invading bug race and collected a lot of good items that can help us in our cultivation."

"So, let\'s celebrate tonight."

Master Valen\'s earlier serious face turned into an excited one as he shouted out loud.

"Congratulations, brother Valen."

Everyone was happy for Master Valen as they congratulated them.

"Thank you, everyone. There is another thing I want to announce today which is related to the future city master of the Valen city."

After thanking them, Master Valen said another thing that surprised everyone for a moment before becoming curious about it.

"Looks like, big brother has finally found a suitable successor."

"Congratulations to you, brother."

"Finally, we can conduct a fight between all our successors."

Soon, all the city masters congratulated Master Valen and said a few more things with excited looks on their faces.

Because, except for the Valen city, the other 48 cities had a young successor who was specially groomed by the city masters.

However, Master Valen, who could see through the hearts of everyone, was not satisfied with the candidates in his city because everyone wanted the power they could get by becoming the successor of the city.

Even though there was no malice in any of them, they were not sincere while answering Master Valen\'s questions and he was very sure that as long as he gave the successor position, those candidates will definitely slack and will not improve their cultivation.

"Yes. Even the candidate didn\'t know about it. I am planning to announce it in front of everyone."

Master Valen replied with a slight smile on his face as he continued, "If any of you wants to test him, you can do it. He is just like us before we settled in this world, who wants to become powerful. Moreover, he is fearless."

Master Valen remembered how a single armed young man was so desperate to help him while fighting the merged bug warrior in the second invasion of the bug warrior.

The single-armed young man was none other than Henrick who impressed Master Valen in many ways.

"Since you have chosen the young man, we no longer dare to question him."

Everyone shook their heads because they knew about Master Valen\'s judgement.

"The arrangements will be completed in a few more minutes. Let\'s talk about your cities. Are there any interesting things happening in your cities these days?"

Master Valen asked them a question and all the city masters started talking about their cities.

...…

Inside the guest room.

\'Phew...finally, I was able to refine one drop of blood essence.\'

Henrick opened his eyes when he finished refining one drop of blood essence and heaved a sigh of relief.

\'I thought it is an easy thing to refine the blood essence, it is quite taxing on my mind sea and body.\'

Henrick felt his body was tired just after refining one drop of blood essence.

\'System, how much time did it take for me to refine a drop of blood essence?\'

He wanted to know exactly how much time it is taking for him to refine a drop of blood essence. So, he asked the system about it.

\'Ding, 

        It took nearly one hour, Master.

\'One hour? More than I expected.\'

Henrick shook his head and looking at the drop of blood essence in his body, he thought, \'Anyway, let\'s see how it works.\'

Soon, he summoned the immortal beast egg from the inventory and without wasting any time, he dropped a single drop of blood essence on it.

\'Slurp\'

Unlike the normal blood drops, the immortal beast egg seemed very excited when Henrick dropped the blood essence on it. It slurped the drop of blood essence into it and shook a little as though it was saying that it wanted more.

\'Sigh...why are all the beasts I have gluttons?\'

Henrick shook his head seeing how excited the egg was for his blood essence and wanted more of it.

\'Okay, if you don\'t hatch in ten drops of blood essence, I will not bother about it anymore.\'

Henrick said to the egg with a serious look on his face.

\'Shakes\'

To his words, the immortal beast egg shook a little as though it was agreeing to his words.

\'Good. After leaving from here, I will refine nie more drops of blood essence for you.\'

After saying that, he didn\'t keep the immortal beast egg outside and sent it into the inventory.

\'Boom\'

\'Looks like it\'s about time for the celebrations.\'

Hearing the sounds outside, Henrick muttered to himself before getting ready for the party.

\'As long as I get my share of bug cores, I can leave this world.\'

Actually, Henrick just wanted to go back to the inheritance building for various reasons and he didn\'t have any close relationship with anyone in this world to stay until his \'24 hour stay\' to complete.
