Chapter 943 - Unpredictable
In the end, the materials they were looking for were certainly not categorized as cheap.
Rather, it was Jason's mindset that had expected everything one would need for a True Soul awakening to be overly expensive.
After all, the first item they had to acquire had been the Soa crystals, one of the most precious and expensive items in the entire Ninad beast realm!
Thus, it was only obvious for him to be astounded about the prices of the items Jennifer required.
However, this was only to their advantage and something the young couple was happy about.
They might not have enough cultivation stones to purchase all items, but this could be easily taken care of.
Forging a few perfectly purified weapons should make up for the cost of the materials Jennifer needed.
With that in mind, they left the last shop once again.
Jason was still under observation of every single Yinar they encountered but he was slowly getting accustomed to the annoying gazes.
Meanwhile, Artemis seemed to enjoy them as it made her feel superior, while Jennifer could only shake her head, questioning Artemis' intention more than the gazes that lingered in Jason.
Occasionally she was also subjected to a few stares, but that was already everything.
Nobody gossiped about her as her contribution to the reclaim mission, and rescue of the young Yinar Elite was rather negligible.
She had played a supportive role and a very good one at that.
Yet, instead of bothering about receiving credit, Jennifer was more concerned about the other things she was hearing.
There were too many rumors that spread through the city, and gossip could be heard everywhere, even in the most crowded streets, where everyone was hurrying to get to work.
Because of the things they had, and the intel Jennifer had already procured before Jason woke up, they looked at each other, slightly concerned.
The more they heard, the more intense the tension became.
"We will leave once the rewards have been distributed and the ingredients I need are purchased, right?"
Jennifer asked this as they were on their way towards the mission hall.
They could also fly towards the mission hall, but walking towards it gave them more time to share their thoughts and the pieces of information they had heard.
It was most important to be on the same page while deciding something in order to prevent conflicts of opinion when it was the most important, or necessary to act quickly.
Thus Jason could clearly understand why Jennifer asked him if they were leaving soon.
"Yes, the sooner the better!"
Nodding his head, he showed her that he felt as uncomfortable in the Ninad beast realm as she did.
The Soul Monarch was a kind of existence who wouldn't care about mindlessly slaughtering any kind of living being that would dare cross his path.
He seemed to have a specific plan in mind and would do everything to attain it.
As such, the Soul Monarch had used trickery in order to make the Yinar race believe that he wanted to form an alliance with the Kanian race.
However, that didn't seem to be the case, if Jason and Jennifer were to believe the gossip of numerous younger and older Yinar.
After all, the explosion in the Soa crystal mine was not the only one to have rocked the small city!
When Jason first heard this, he got a premonition, and by joining the dots, Jason figured out what had happened.
And that was even without knowing the truth from someone who had been present when the True powerhouses had started their counteroffensive tactic to destroy the enlarged and stabilized portal that allowed the Kanian race to emerge in the Ninad beast realm.
There were quite a few things Jason and Jennifer didn't know, but they concluded that the second explosion happened in the city where the stabilized and enlarged portal to the Kanian race had been located.
While fighting there, the True powerhouses must have been killed, which was likely to have been the Soul Monarch's true agenda.
However, after giving it some more thought, Jason realized that his thoughts so far had always been rather simple when it concerned the Soul Monarch.
Yet, given the fact that he had betrayed another race, and turned his back on the Kanian race, Jason might have to change his mindset when thinking about the Soul Monarch.
At first glance, the Soul Monarch might want to help someone, but this help was likely to be for his own sake. He would most probably abandon the beings that had helped him, once their purpose had been served.
It was a cruel and unpredictable type of behavior of people that Jason hated the most.
As such, he hoped to never encounter the Soul Monarch in his life…not again!
"We should be able to use the portal leading to the Shadow walker's territory on Manyr. Their settlement has been destroyed.
So the only thing we have to pay attention to is to avoid Specta stage Shadow walkers once we enter their territories."
Jason didn't think that there would be any problems after they left the Ninad beast realm.
This task seemed to have become one of their highest priority as it looked like the Soul Monarch was, at least, at the Mecynar stage.
It was the stage that came after breaking through the shackles of the Peak Specta stage and advancing further.
Even the strongest individuals of an ordinary race were unlikely to have such powerhouses.
Some might have such existences in their family tree, but their powers were unstable, and not quite well distributed owing to the eons they took to advance.
Meanwhile, one could even say that reaching the Mecynar stage was overly difficult for higher races.
They might have a dozen of them, and possibly more, corresponding to the strength of their foundation, the amount of resources they had, and many other factors.
As such, Jason and Jennifer had to pay attention to how they behaved while being well within the reach of the Soul Monarch.
After all, Jason had been unable to tell that the Soul Monarch had been standing next to him…in Liun within the mission hall, trying to convince him to not complete the mission to look out for the Kinan race.
This was something that was still incomprehensible for Jason as he had never conversed with the Soul Monarch beforehand.
However, in Jason's opinion, everything that happened after their encounter had been a well-planned strategy of the Soul Monarch.
He had wanted Jason to go to Elder Ben, and the City Lord to share the news about the Soul Monarch's ability to shapeshift.
This had been a powerful move in order to instil fear in the Yinar race's government, making them act recklessly as they scampered to join forces with others in a rushed manner.
It might even become the reason for them to rush towards the city of the Kianan race!
They wanted to prevent the worst case scenario by destroying the portal to the Kianan race, but also encountering the Soul Monarch, whom they had hoped to meet.
And, in fact, many rumors even said that the Soul Monarch had died, while fighting against more than five dozen powerhouses at the Peak Specta stage and three Yinar that were considered to be founding pillars of the Yinar race!
These three Yinar were considered as Ancient Elders, and they had reached the Mecynar stage after thousands of years of cultivation, with numerous cultivation resources and treasures.
Yet, while fighting against the Soul Monarch, every single one of them had died in the explosion.
After all, they had been in the center of the explosion, and not even the charred or mutilated remains of their bodies were left behind. As such, there was no one could guarantee that the Soul Monarch was dead.
All of these were rumors, but Jason didn't believe them, at all.
Only the death of the Yinar race's Ancient Elders was something he might believe, even if they had been at the Mecynar stage.
After all, one's cultivation base had never been the indicator of one's whole combat prowess.
Scheming even the dirtiest tricks were also included in this aspect of their intelligence and strength.
Who would know this better than Jason who had spent years as a weakling and a cripple who had been too weak in order to fight against others head-on?
However that was a thing of the past, and some painful memories that Jason didn't even want to recall.
Yet, this trait was something that was common between Jason and the Soul Monarch…
Both had never given up on themselves as they had strived for strength in order to fulfill their individual goals, even if they hurt themselves…or possibly others to achieve it!
