Corrupt Creations

Chapter 279 - Scheduled Conflict

The sound of hurried steps echoed at the Illusive Ethereal Sanctuary, in a place that there wasn't anyone but a man. He suddenly stopped before the huge entrance gate and knelt down.

"Goddess, your servant is here." The Sanctuary Master said while he maintained that reverential stance.

The purple mist left through the gates of the main sanctuary, forming the specter of a woman. She was totally made out of that illusive purple haze. After she finished forming, the sanctuary master finally decided to look towards her ethereal face. While he looked, there was an admiring glint inside his eyes, as if he had been bewitched by her.

Actually, the Sanctuary Master was fascinated with his goddess and revered her over anything else. She was his world and sun, an unreachable star right up in the skies. Part of the motive he was so linear and focused with the sect rules, was because he was entranced by everything she had created, be it for the good or for the bad.

The Illusive Ethereal Goddess knew about his distorted feelings, but it didn't matter for her. In her eyes, he was just another one of her descendants, one of those that had failed helping her on reaching her goals. If they couldn't help her accomplishing that, then they were the same as some random tools in her eyes.

This time, as the Sanctuary Master looked at her, he noticed there was an air of seriousness circling around her. It was like something was weighing down at her shoulders. He wasn't able to handle it any longer and had to ask about what was happening.

"Goddess... Can I help you with something?"

The Illusive Ethereal Goddess looked towards him as she came up with a decision and said: "Yes, you can. We're going to battle against the Glazed Lake Sect and you are going to be the front line."

"... Goddess..." Even for the Sanctuary Master, that order was too abrupt.

"Gather all the Mana Control and above elders, and convey them my orders. This is going to be a full-scale conflict and our objective is not the total destruction of the other side, but I want you to diverge their attention while I sneak inside their territory. This is an absolute order!"

When the Sanctuary Master finished hearing her words, his distorted thought process instantly leaned to her side and he complied with everything. If his goddess wished for something, it was his job to provide it for her. She wanted a conflict and even if the Illusive Ethereal Sanctuary was to lose all their elders in that battle, he would still do it anyways.

"When will it happen?"

"In a month. Make sure to be totally prepared until then. I will take this time to preparate some things first." The Illusive Ethereal Goddess finished giving her orders and disappeared back inside the main sanctuary.

After some time, the Sanctuary Master finally stood up and left. His mind was only focused in a single objective now and whether his people would like it or not, they were going to battle the Glazed Lake Sect. During that battle, he would certainly prove his worth to his goddess.

Seth had suddenly passed out after using too much energy and Soul Essence; however, his body was not only enhanced by the corruption, but it was strengthened once again by the Evergreen Essence. Very quickly, he recovered his consciousness and stood up from the floor, but it was still a shock for him to notice he had gone blank for an unknown amount of time.

When he was already standing, his memories resurfaced and he looked towards Meiyi. Impressively, she was still sleeping, what made Seth start to feel anxious once again. But before he could check her condition, Lexi's voice appeared, telling him to not bother her rest.

Meiyi's body was still tired and fragile after passing through that wild process, and needed a lot of time until she could recover; however, that time was not something they could predict. If they were fortunate, she could actually wake up at that same day or tomorrow.

Seth felt happy and couldn't wait till he was able to see her smiling face once again, but since he had many other things to do, he decided to leave the room and let her rest in peace. After leaving, he identified where Rina currently was and went to meet with her.

Rina was currently outside, taking care of a garden where there were plants growing with the help of her powers. Her Evergreen Essence not only helped her plants to grow faster, but they grew more verdant as well and together with her enhanced water element, she had become a really good gardener. The only difference, was that the plants growing in her garden were all cultivation treasures.

Rina had once used her abilities to grow Chun Meihui's tea leaves faster, but that woman preferred when her plants grew normally. She claimed Rina's abilities would slightly change the taste of those herbs, kind of infusing a bit of Mana inside them and her body wasn't able to absorb that Mana.

At that time, Rina had discovered that she could probably create Mana infused herbs and had tried since then, to create her own little garden. The most impressive part of it all, was that the medicinal strength of her herbs grew as her abilities grew stronger as well.

Rina still didn't know how valuable that power was and how many great things she could accomplish with it, but she had a hunch after eating some of her plants, that it was something incredible. While talking with Jiayi and the other girls, she realized that Qi or Mana infused ingredients were highly sought after by the cultivators.

After discovering that, she has been waiting for the right time to use those ingredients and that time would be when Seth returned.

Talking about the beast, he was already sneaking behind her, ready to bring Rina, a pleasant surprise.
