Chapter 4 Sacred Stone
- At this moment, even a fool could tell that Alexander was definitely powerful.
- The first guard was so frightened that he did not dare to speak. His face was pale and his forehead was covered in cold sweat.
- "Clang!" At this moment, Alexander suddenly exerted strength and actually shattered the long saber made of fine steel.
- "Swoosh!" Alexander held a blade and swung it. The blade turned into a stream of light and flew past the throat of the first guard.
- A drop of blood dripped from the guard's throat onto the ground.
- "For the sake of the entire Wilson family, I'll only cut a layer of skin on your throat this time as a warning. If you dare to provoke me again, the blade will pierce your entire throat." A cold voice came from Alexander's mouth.
- He turned around and walked into the Ritual Hall.
- The first guard held his throat and trembled. He almost peed his pants because he realized how close to death he was.
- Beside him, his companion sighed and said, "The Wilson family is really filled with talents. Even a servant who feeds horses is more powerful than us..."
- Meanwhile, in the Ritual Hall, the tablets of the ancestors of the family were placed on a high shelf.
- Candles were lit on the surrounding pillars, and the atmosphere was solemn.
- Alexander walked in. He did not look at the tablets and only walked towards the inside of the hall.
- There was a huge arena inside. At the edge of the arena was a table.
- Alexander walked to the table and looked at an old man who was sleeping on the table. He knocked on the table a few times.
- The old man mumbled and opened his eyes in complaint, "Who is it? It isn't easy for me to catch a nap."
- However, the moment he saw Alexander, the old man suddenly stood up and faced Alexander. He seemed to have discovered something and was very surprised.
- The old man reached out his hand and began to feel Alexander's body. He even muttered, "Impossible, this is impossible..."
- Alexander had a strange look in his eyes. He quickly took a few steps back and said to the old man, "Sir, is it necessary for you to touch my body in order to verify the fact that I am now in the Physical Realm?"
- "That's not it. I'm just curious. You have a special aura on you, and your body is very good." The old man in coarse linen clothes stared at Alexander with his old eyes.
- He looked at Alexander and clicked his tongue, making Alexander feel a little scared.
- He thought, Does this old man have some weird fetish?
- Alexander immediately released his aura of Level one of Phisycal Realm, obtained the identity token of an official member of the Wilson family, and ran out of the Ritual Hall.
- When the old man saw Alexander slip away so quickly, he smiled slightly. His pupils bloomed with a bright light, and his tone actually carried a trace of a sigh. He muttered, "You've finally awaken. That's great..."
- *****
- Alexander hurriedly ran out of the Ritual Hall.
- "Dude, wait!" The guard who almost peed his pants just now walked over and fawningly placed a shiny piece of sacred stone into Alexander's hand.
- Alexander held the sacred stone in his hand and asked in confusion, "What do you want?"
- The guard chuckled and said, "I am sorry that I have offended you just now. This piece of medium-grade sacred stone is worth 100 low-grade sacred stones. I just want to apologize to you."
- Alexander felt that it would be a waste not to take it.
- He put the shining middle-grade sacred stone into his pocket and walked away.
- The guard shouted at Alexander, "Sir, I'll treat you to a meal another day."
- "That won't be necessary." Alexander waved his hand.
- In the blink of an eye, he had already gone to the Wilson Mansion.
- *****
- An hour later, in a dilapidated hut at the edge of the Wilson Mansion.
- Alexander sat cross-legged with his eyes closed. The mid-grade sacred stone in his hand had already been sucked dry of its spiritual energy.
- The golden internal energy in his body had become much stronger.
- However, he was still far from reaching Level two of Physical Realm.
- Alexander opened his eyes, and a faint golden light flashed in his pupils.
- He thought, The path of cultivation is too costly.
- Alexander could not help but smile bitterly when he saw sacred stone turn into powder after being sucked dry.
- Although the Creation Manual had allowed him to improve his cultivation rapidly, enhance his internal energy, and strengthen his physique, every cultivation session consumed a huge amount of energy.
- The spiritual energy contained in a medium-grade sacred stone was enough for an ordinary expert in the Physical Realm to use for more than half a month.
