He said with a voice fill of pride and self satisfaction, saying, "Thanks to our preparedness and the might of the League of World Eaters, we were able to find the spatial coordinates of the howorld of the gem people. That's the first piece of good news."
This made everyone breathe a sigh of relief. They realized that Sword Flash was doing this to play around with their emotions, but no one complained. This was because they didn't have the guts to complain.
In his defense, Sword Flash chuckled and said, "Don't look at like that. I experienced the sa thing when I went to confirm the spatial coordinates. It was an emotional roller-coaster for , so I thought that it was fair that I make you experience a little bit of what I experienced."
Then he changed the subject by saying, "Anyway, on to the second piece of bad news. This piece of bad news is that we haven't yet received the go-ahead to use the spatial coordinates that we got to invade the gem people."
"Be it the spatial coordinates of the small world and that of the howorld of the gem people, we can't invade either one yet. We will have to wait for permission from the Ethera tree first."
"This is because everything we do outside Ethera can affect our world negatively, so the Ethera tree must be aware of who we are going to invade and must confirm that they are safe to invade before we can invade them."
He shook his head and said, "I know the reason for the delay is reasonable, but I don't like being held in limbo like this. What's worse is that not only do we not know when the permission will be given, but it is also possible that our request to invade them will be rejected."
His tone was sad when he said this. But he suddenly cheered up and clapped as he said, "Now, it is ti for the last piece of good news. I'm sure that you will like it."
"The second piece of good news is that you guys who are qualified to advance to the fifth mortal coil can now purchase nascent soul pills with your contribution points and use them to advance to the fifth mortal coil. I won't let the fact that we don't know when we will be allowed to invade our targets delay you any longer."
Arthur didn't care about this good news because he was still far from the tenth transformation of the fourth mortal coil, but the four people who were and had also learned a vessel sigil technique were very happy to hear it.
All four of them were happy to various extents when they heard the food news. Even the usually stoic Void Claw had a big smile on his face.
Sword Flash saw this and shook his head and said, "Thanks to the nascent soul pill, your chances of success are very high. But it is still possible that you will die during the attempt. So this might be the last ti that I get to see you."
"I think that it is a good idea to throw you guys a party to congratulate you on making the attempt and to say goodbye to you, just in case we don't see you again. What do you guys think about that?"
The four happy golden core elders beca more subdued and solemn when they were reminded that they could still die. So they took the question about a farewell party seriously.
But before they could speak their thoughts, Lady Evergreen said to everyone, "I think the party is a good idea because the sect has never had four people trying to advance to the fifth mortal coil at the sa ti. This is an achievent worthy of celebration."
"Besides, it is possible that all four of you will die, and we lose four golden core elders at the sa ti. It is unlikely to happen, but it is possible, and if it happens, it will also be sothing that has never happened in the history of the sect."
"Be it the advancent of four golden core elders at the sa ti or the loss of four golden core elders at the sa ti because of a failure to advance, either one is a good enough reason to have a party."
Then she said to the four peak golden core elders, "As for what the party is to you, don't worry about it now. What the party is to you will be revealed after you make the attempt to advance."
"If you successfully advance, then the party will be to celebrate you. But if you fail to advance, the party will say farewell to you. So everything will still rely on you at the end of the day."
What she said practically sealed the deal about the party. They wouldn't be able to reject her reasons for throwing a party if she were alone. But now that she and Sword Flash had spoken in favor of the party, the party would surely take place.
Since two out of the patriarchs had agreed to throw a party, not even Thunder Drake could stop the party from taking place. Especially not after he just lost a bet to them.
The party was scheduled for a week from now. Then the eting was adjourned, and everyone was allowed to leave.
Arthur returned to his floating island and began to cultivate with heavenly lightning. This was what he did with most of his ti.
He took breaks sotis. But during those breaks, he was always working on sothing and was always busy.
The main thing that he did with his ti was to master the creation of Thought Units and implent the simultaneous computation of quantum computers in the logic unit that he was building. He found this kind of work highly fulfilling.
The party that Sword Flash spoke about took place a week after their eting. Arthur took a break out of his busy schedule to attend it briefly.
