Chapter 2059

Nightfall came, and Severin sat cross-legged on a deserted hill to begin his training. Having covered less

than a hundred miles in their journey toward the central area during the day, the group found themselves in an environment saturated with nearly spiritual energy. It was the perfect location for seclusion, but the relentless pursuit of treasures within the ruins always necessitated wariness.

As they approached the center of the ruins, Severin observed a growing number of practitioners in the vicinity. Elite disciples from major sects, such as the Deifirm Sect and Purevoid Sect, engaged in skirmishes over higher grade herbs. Raymond and Severin had faced several attempts to rob them, but Raymond's interventions successfully thwarted any potential threats. Even so, they all decided that it would be best to choose a hill to rest for the night and regain their strength.

Reflecting on the day's encounters, Severin pondered, 'Wildfire's legacy has yet to show up, and there is already conflict within the ruins. I won't be surprised if a bloodbath erupts when the Sky-Soil Zenith is finally found. Even though I can easily deal with a level nine supreme saint, that still isn't enough to ensure everyone's safety. I'll have to make a breakthrough."

The fierce competition for the Wildfire's legacy attracted numerous talented individuals. Aside from the Deifirm Sect's Sian and the Steeles' Tobias, the two leaders of the Purevoid and Marvair Sects were level

nine supreme saints too.

Even Raymond was a potential adversary! Though Severin acknowledged that they were both core

disciples of the sect, there was no telling whether Raymond would give in to the temptation of betraying a fellow core disciple when faced with the precious legacies. Challenging numerous level nine supreme saints single-handedly was a daunting task, especially since his wives' safety was paramount.

Severin sighed after contemplating the situation and realized just how important it was for him to rise. above others to secure his chances of getting the valuable treasures. With that in mind, Severin made a difficult decision. "I guess I have no choice but to use this to get a breakthrough..."

He intended to save the Fire Phoenix Snow Lotus for future alchemical breakthroughs, but he felt that there was a pressing need for him to use it and raise his attainment.

Severin turned to Raymond, who was recovering nearby, and asked respectfully, "I'll have to trouble you to keep watch over me tonight."

Upon hearing that, Raymond's eyes widened in surprise. "Are you on the cusp of a breakthrough to level

eight supreme saint?"

Raymond was puzzled because he remembered that Severin made a breakthrough to level seven only very recently. He could not help but wonder if breakthroughs were second nature to those with a divine

Severin shook his head with a bitter smile and said, "No. But I sense that the battle at the center of the

ruins will escalate into bloodshed, so I'm planning to utilize the Fire Phoenix Snow Lotus for a breakthrough ahead of time."

Raymond's eyes glimmered enviously at Severin's possession of the Fire Phoenix Snow Lotus. They were crucial materials for refining a pill that could allow one to make a breakthrough into royal paragon.
