Chapter 848: Corpse refiners
'Swoosh'
"Master Ren, wait..."
Even though Ajax tried to stop Master Ren to ask whether he could take the crystals from the king realm elental spirits or not, he disappeared without a trace.
'It looks like I can take them.'
Earlier, when Master Ren burned Master Red's elental spirits into ashes, they left so crystals; however, Ajax and Elen didn't dare to take the crystals because they didn't kill them.
Moreover, they were worried that their actions might anger Master Ren.
So, just when Master Ren finished his words and about to leave, Ajax tried to ask about those crystals. But, nevertheless, Master Ren disappeared without even bothering to listen to his words.
"Also, he gave permission to take Master Red's body. I hope I can get sothing good by refining his corpse."
While walking to the place filled with crystal left behind by the fire elental spirits, Ajax took a look at the corpse lying so distance away from him and silently thought to himself.
Before Master Ren left, he gave permission for Ajax to take the corpse of Master Red.
Even though there will be no crystals or treasures inside the corpse of a King realm, the body itself is a treasure.
It is not useful for everyone; however, to the cultivators who know who to refine the blood of others, it will be very useful.
Also, there is another profession, just like beast tars and alchemists. It is to refine the entire corpse and make the corpses their slaves. Hence, they are called Corpse refiners.
Even though Ajax knew neither to refine the corpses or the blood, he could use the Arcane green spirit turtle to refine anything into sothing useful.
As for Master Ren, he didn't have the faintest idea of what Ajax would do with the corpse. But, nevertheless, he was not worried that Ajax could harm him in any way.
Moreover, he has sothing on his mind. So, he was not thinking properly.
Sowhere in the Shixato wilds,
'Swoosh'
In a cave lit with so spirit stones, Master Ren appeared with a serious look on his face.
'Why did I talk about my Master to him? How can I lose control?'
Master Ren was clearly not happy about what he had spoken with Ajax earlier because he had never spoken about his master to anyone, including his group mbers.
'There is sothing about him that makes
relax my guard. I need to be careful.'
Master Ren, a powerful cultivator who could kill a king realm cultivator without any difficulty, was thinking to be careful when he was around Ajax, who was only a level 2 general realm cultivator.
'I need to know more about him.'
Finally, after thinking for a mont, Master Ren wanted to observe Ajax more and wanted to find out the reason why he let down his guard earlier.
'Swoosh'
'Sumo, as usual, keep an eye on him and if he lands in any trouble from the other two regions, protect him. Rember, observe what kind of trump cards he is hiding on him and protect him when he is only an inch away from death.'
With a thought, Master Ren summoned his dual elental spirit and gave so orders before sitting down in a cross-legged position to cultivate and recover his strength.
"Yes, summoning master."
The sun moon dual elental spirit knew what his master wanted and nodded his head before disappearing from the cave.
After receiving back-to-back surprises from Ajax, Master Ren was sure Ajax had many more secrets about him.
However, he was not the type to force soone to know their trump cards, and at the sa ti, he wanted to completely know about Ajax because he had high hopes for him.
'The more trump cards he has, the better it will be.'
After his elental spirit left the cave, Master Ren revealed a slight smile on his face while his eyes remained closed.
.....
Back in the open ground, Ajax was collecting the stones left by the King realm elental spirits.
'11 King realm elental spirit stones and three level 10 elental law stones.'
Ajax slowly stored them in his inventory after checking the information on them.
Among the 11 elental spirits, only three left behind their elental spirit stones.
'System, once a cultivator enters into the King realm, they will only have an elental soul, right? So then why are these elental spirits left behind their elental law stones?'
After storing them inside his inventory, Ajax asked the system about his doubt.
'Ding,
When a King realm elental spirit was killed, the elental soul from their body would turn back into an elental law. As for getting the elental law stone of that law depends on luck just like the elite general realm elental spirit who learned an elental law.
'Oh. So, it is like that.'
Finally, Ajax understood the reason why the King realm elental spirits still left behind the elental law stones despite the fact they have already condensed an elental soul from their elental law.
'I will check these elental law stones after I go back to the white castle.'
Even though there was so much he had to do, Ajax's first instinct was to go back to the white castle.
So, he walked towards Master Red's corpse and stored it in his inventory before walking towards Elen.
"So, are you going back to the summoner's base?"
Ajax asked Elen with a slight smile on his face.
Ajax already knew that he couldn't go back to the fire base because the cultivators from the fire base must have already seen that Elen had betrayed Master Red which was betraying the fire base itself.
"I can't go back to the fire base, and if I am not wrong, the summoner's group must have already got inford about the death of Master Red."
Elen had a worried look on his face as he explained, "Even though Master Red was banished very far away from the summoner's group, they will send soone to kill , you and Master Ren."
Elen felt grateful to Ajax and Master Ren for saving him from Master Red; however, compared to Ajax, he knew more about the summoner's group and how far they could go.
"Don't worry. Master Ren is very powerful, and he also knew about Master Red's background. Since he killed Master Red despite knowing his identity, Master Ren must be confident in going against the summoner's group."
Ajax stayed silent for a mont before replying to Elen.
"It might be true, but Master Ren is only a single cultivator. So how can he go against the summoner's group?"
Elen already saw Master Ren's prowess, but how can a single powerful cultivator be compared to a powerful organization called Summoner's group.
"Since you have already left the summoner's group, you have to face what has to co. As for , I am always ready to face it, Friend."
Ajax said to Elen with a face full of confidence.
Even though Elen tried to kill Ajax previously, Ajax liked Elen's character a little because of how Elen treated his elental spirits as his family.
It was like he wanted to go against a powerful existence but would not sacrifice his elental spirits.
So, Ajax felt Elen could beco his good friend.
