×Chapter 11×Millennium forest

~~~~

It was bright and early the next morning, birds were singing sweets songs, cool breeze wave the ground with refreshment, beautiful sun sparkling down on the people and a rogue Mars walking to the gates of the kingdom.

Right now he was planning to return to the Millennium Forest to source some more Pill Cores, coming to this kingdom he had obviously seen how important having such currency is, he may even be able to control the entire world with enough coins like the rich weak nobles do.

So he's going back out to get some of them to sell, plus since he is going to be taking care of Lisa, his seed and also by extension Lisa's sister which is also his child's aunt a lot of coins is going to be necessary in this endeavor.

From what he could see with the energy coins even the weakest being could buy almost anything, even hire some cultivators to protect them and their coins from stronger people, it was a really fun world.

.'At least this world still has a little semblance of order for my child to grow, though I can say, it won't be here for long.'Mars thought about all these things as he approached the gates, the reason he's not really against having a child and with a random person to beside is because it falls in line with his goals of experiencing everything he did not want to before or even couldn't before now.

Mars reached the gates then was stopped again by two different guards than last time, this time only one talked to him in respectful manner.

Guard #3":Please stop a moment sir, my name is Robert, sorry to stop you so suddenly but do you know the rules of coming and going from the kingdom?."He asked respectfully, he had never seen him before so he was just looking out for him.

."What rules?."Mars was a little surprised, he didn't know they were rules just leaving the kingdom, did he have to pay again or something like that, that would be very unreasonable for an ordinary person to achieve, is it a trap perhaps.

Guard # 3 now named robert nodded seeing his expression."Sir only the first entry to the kingdom is free, if you leave and then return you then have to pay the entrance fee of 30 bronze energy coins."He said.

."Oh but why was it free in the first place, are all the other kingdoms like this, a bit strange."Mars asked with a curious light in his beautiful red eyes, it's like the people are held hostage wasn't it?

."NO...sorry sir."Robert shouted out with his face covered in respect and reverence, he almost wanted to kneel."No sir, not all the other kingdoms are like ours, all the others charges entry fees from the beginning and even heavily tax their people."

As he reach this point Robert's eyes were filled with worship and admiration."This system was created and implemented by our great Dragon Emperor, he made it so that the poor people that want to enter into the kingdom can enter easily just so they won't have to suffer, he's such a great man."He said glancing off to the palace in the distance.

Mars who was listening to him was in thought.'In the point of view of this man, that Dragon Emperor is some kind of saint, such fools in the past also mentioned something similar, those idiots always praised and worship us OmniGods as benevolent and kind entities, always going on about how we were here to protect the universe, such folly.'He shook his head gently.

."Alright I'm going through the gates open them for me."Mars said beginning to walk, he was not worried about a mere 30 bronze, though it is worth 30 loafs of bread, some families could never think of just giving it away like nothing, that would starve them.

Robert as he heard this called the other guard to help open the gates, it was because of its weight, it was made of the bones of a grade 8 beast back in the ancient times by the first Dragon Emperor and ancestor of the Dragon Kingdom.

They quickly opened the gate, Mars went through it and it was closed behind him, he looked far into the horizon taking in the change of presence, also the Quik out in the open was actually abit less than in the kingdom which was surprising as the kingdom didn't have a lid.

Mars looked back at the gates and Lisa's cute little face flashed though his mind but he shook his head and turn back around, he saw the two guards he saw when he first came.

Guard # 1 looked at him in surprise."Oh, if it isn't the mysterious boy, leaving so soon, you've only been in there for a few weeks, you do know that to go back in you'll have to pay a fee right?."He asked him making sure he knew the process, many people did not and were unable to pay, they never got to see their families again.

Mars glanced at him while still walking."Yes, I've heard it already I'll be back in a month, I'm going to complete unfinished business."He said to him not stopping his steps.

The guards nodded, it was not their business outside of the kingdom, with that Mars started his journey back to the Millennium Forest which he now took over from the Grade 9 Dragon.

He was moving swiftly as he wants to get the journey over with so he can get back to Lisa in case something happens, wouldn't want a mishap to appear when he's not there and his child dies, he may have to finish the planet for this grievance.

*BOOM*!!!

*Whooshh*!!!

After speed walking for a while, enough to be out of the guards sight with unbelievable speed he began to run using his full momentum, only a trail of light and a sonic boom was left behind.

As he moved faster and faster his core suddenly started to spin at faster speeds, it twirled in his head like a planetary sphere.

It seemed to be absorbing the Quik energy in the air making Mars stronger and faster with every long step he took.

In just 10 days of continuous running he finally managed to make it to the Millennium Forest which is 500,000 miles away from the dragon kingdom, he was making record breaking time at his cultivation stage.

He decided to stop just a half mile away from the forest so he can regain his energy from all the running.

The only reason he even made it this far with his weak cultivation base was because he was using just a piece of his soul's energy as the fuel.

What he didn't know was that in doing that he unknowingly broke past the Body Rebirth Stage and made it to the peak of Foundation Strengthening Stage by accident.

Something that usually takes most people three years to complete, he breezily passed over just by accident, it was amazing.

All because of him using his Omni Soul to fuel his body, while his core was rotating at extreme speed absorbing the energy from the air it caught and absorbed some of his Omni Energy by accident strengthening his core to the limits instantly.

He didn't even know about this, he had no reason to, in the past being already at the pinnacle of cultivation from the start even the giant king didn't know about the foundation strengthening stage.

After Mars spends one day recovering his energy he decided to start his massacre to bath the forest in more blood, he wanted to kill some beast himself.

With that and without hesitation he rushed into forest and started killing the beast left and right leaving nothing but pill cores in his wake, cries, screams and distressed roars could be heard.

Time passed like lightning, just like that 10 minutes had already passed, he in massacre has killed over 3000 beast from grade 1 to 3, he didn't care as long as it moved it moved no longer.

All you can hear now are the agonizing howls and cries of the beast as they took their last breath of fresh air and warm glow of the sun before being vanquished.

After killing one thousand more beast he decided to take a break to relax and pick up the pill cores that he drop all over the outer layer of the forest, he was thinking if to pick them up one time but that may take go long.
