--- Chapter 153 ---

After taking Yao Ling'er as his disciple, Baek Ain started his plan of conquering the Yao Clan. And the best part is that they wouldn't even realize what's coming after them.

A day later.

Baek Ain is training his spearmanship behind the newly built house of Yao Ling'er, wielding the finished Spiritual Weapon Roc's Spine.

The white body of the spear has gained black lines, which release a faint crimson luster. Even the spearhead is "uniquely." twisted with sharp blades' ends.

Baek Ain ran his White Poison Art and moved gently, bouncing the spear in his hand like it was part of his body. After mastering Blade Intent, he realized it wasn't limited to "Blade." like Domina-Tion and Earth Cleaver, but also to every bladed weapon.

However, the length and movement of each weapon are different.

The strength he needed to wield a spear was different.

The swiftness and how he grasps its handle are also different.

He doesn't wield a spear to master spearmanship but to extend his blademanship.

Is it the wrong path?

Baek Ain didn't know, but this was the path he was willing to try.

"Heavy Blade." Baek Ain swung Roc's Spine down like a heavy sword, causing the invisible yet sharp air to drag down and condense.

BOOM!

A thunderclap-like whip noise echoed in the area.

Baek Ain looked down and saw a crater on the ground, having a burnt-like effect.

"Not bad, weaker than Domina-Tion and Earth Cleaver, but have more range and flexibility." Baek Ain commented with a smile.

[Name: Roc's Spine]

[Type: Low-Grade Spiritual Weapon]

[Grade: SSS(Low)]

[Description: An weapon made from Ancient Beast Roc's Spine Bone. It's sturdy and allows its wielder to fly like a Roc. After absorbing the baptism of heaven's lightning, it becomes Low-Grade Spiritual Weapon with inborn Lightning Element]

[Innate Skills: Roc's Flight(SSS), Extreme Lightning Enhancement(SSS)]

...

[Roc's Flight: In the legends, the ancient Rocs could pass 90,000 miles with a single flap of their wings without any Space Laws. Even though the ability is "slightly." weakened, the wielder of Roc's Spine can fly over 69,000 miles instantly]

[Note: It's "thoroughly." recommended to have a sturdy physique when using Roc's Flight because the whiplash and extreme speed would damage the user's body. Or even worse, Death!]

...

[Extreme Lightning Enhancement: After Roc's Spine got baptized by the Heaven's Punishing Lightning, it now could utilize 10% of it to strengthen each attack launch, dealing 75% more Electro Damage for 6 Minutes]

[True Extreme Lightning Enhancement: By utilizing 100% of the Extreme Lightning Enhancement, Roc's Spine used up all Heaven's Punishing Lightning to deal 750% more Electro Damages for 6 Seconds]

[Note: Extreme Lightning Enhancement is effective when used against Evil, mainly Undead-Type and Soul-Type Enemy]

[Recharge Duration: 48 Hours]

...

Baek Ain glanced at the Extreme Lightning Enhancement and shook his head because Roc's Spine could do more damage, even if he just used 1% of Heaven's Punishing Lightning.

Also, the Recharge's Duration.

There was a loophole as Baek Ain possessed Mighty Rajang's beast soul, allowing him to recharge the Roc's Spine in just one or two minutes.

He could do this maximal five times before the Mighty Rajang needed to rest, meaning he could use True Extreme Lightning Enhancement for an extra 30 seconds at one time.

In thirty-six seconds, Baek Ain could slaughter his enemy countless times.

"Still, I can make Roc's Spine stronger." Baek Ain mumbled, thinking of attaching something to the lower spearhead. Perhaps a cloth silk or beast's feather.

"Well, that's for today." He shrugged, putting the spear back in his inventory.

"Teacher!" Yao Ling'er entered the backyard with a towel, respectfully giving it to him.

Baek Ain smiled, "Thanks, you're such a thoughtful disciple."

Yao Ling'er smiled back with her eyes lit up. She has been watching Baek Ain practicing with his new spear and marveled at his attainment in martial arts.

Even though Yao Clan mainly focused on Alchemy, it doesn't mean they are weak in cultivation and martial arts. Yes, they are lacking compared to other Ancient Clans, but their battle powers shouldn't get underestimated.

As a keen observer, Yao Ling'er could see Baek Ain was well-versed in stick handling. No, she meant polearm mastery!

She blushed when thinking about such a thing, shaking her head afterward.

'What's with her?' Baek Ain looked at his disciple weirdly.

'Anyway, I have successfully infiltrated the Yao Clan.'

'The next step is to spread over my influence, then take everyone in one swoop.'

Baek Ain wiped his sweat and said, "Today, I want to look around the Yao Realm."

"Can you escort us?"

"Okay!" Yao Ling'er absentmindedly agreed.

"Wait, us?"

Baek Ain chuckled and returned, "Of course, I can't let my wife alone, right?"

Yao Ling'er was struck by lightning internally, "Ah, yes... Master's Wife"

She seemed disheartened when her imagination was "directly." shattered by cruel reality.

She has met Lin Qing, a beautiful young woman with a warm aura and an endearing personality. Compared to her, Yao Ling'er first impression of her teacher is not good.

Not only was Yao Ling'er so cold and disdainful, but she also looked down on him.

Yao Ling'er wanted to change this.

For Yao Clan.

And herself.

...

...

Escorted by Yao Ling'er around the Yao Realm, Baek Ain triggered some Sign In's notifications, but he wasn't interested because those places were so ordinary and wouldn't yield great results.

He needed an extraordinary place with deep history, a great aura of luck, or a unique mystery.

At noon, Yao Ling'er brought Baek Ain and Qing Lin to the most famous restaurant in the Yao Realm and even ordered a sumptuous lunch.

Several dishes were placed on the dining table, making anyone who saw them gulp.

Yao Ling'er poured tea for Baek Ain and said, "Enjoy, teacher."

"Sure." Baek Ain nodded, sipping the tea and enjoying the dishes.

Qing Lin fed him from time to time, causing the people around them to feel jealous.

"Who's this guy?" Some whispered.

"I have never seen him before."

"The same goes for me..."

"But Lady Ying'er called her teacher. Does that mean he was her teacher?"

"I've been living in Yao Realm for years. Lady Ying'er doesn't have a single teacher as she was taught directly by elders and Clan Chief."

"Hmm, I saw lightning striking her mountain peak yesterday. Is this connected to this guy?"

"Lightning at such a level rarely appears unless one was concocting high-tiered pills and wanted to break through..."

"Wait, I just sensed that Lady Ying'er Spiritual Realm and Aura seemed to experience a massive change. She's still cold, but this nobility..."

"D-Did she become an 8th Tier Alchemist? Dear god, Lady Ying'er is so talented!"

Baek Ain was "actually." amused by these people's conversation and glanced at Yao Ling'er, finding her blushed slightly.

"I'll deal with them." Yao Ling'er said immediately.

Baek Ain shook his head and commented, "Sit and eat."

"It's just gossip. We'll leave soon anyway."

Yao Ling'er opened her mouth and nodded slightly, "This disciple will follow the teacher's wish."

Qing Lin enjoyed the egg tart on her plate and suddenly asked, "Is there any site we can visit in the Yao Realm?"

'Nice assist!' Baek Ain smiled at Qing Lin internally.

Yao Ling'er pondered before answering, "Yes, there is."

"On the west central of the Yao Realm, a golden monolith called Medicine Monument stood for several thousand years. It was "purposely." left behind by our Yao Clan's Ancestors as they recorded some cryptic pills recipes. But only Ancient Clans and high-leveled factions can enter the Yao Realm, so not many outsiders know."

"Anyone who could decipher the pills' recipes there will get rewarded handsomely by the Yao Clan, even if you're an outsider. Only a few have deciphered successfully, leaving one hundred or maybe a thousand recipes untouched."

"Let's go there after lunch." Baek Ain was interested.

He glanced at the people in the restaurant and silently spread his parasites in the air.

...

After lunch, Yao Ling'er brought them to the Medicine Monument.

[Ding! Do you want to Sign In to the Golden Age of Ancient Medicine's Monument?] Alicia's voice echoed in Baek Ain's head.

Baek Ain smiled and answered, "Hehe, Sign In!"
