Unfortunate

A figure was running on the snow at a speed faster than the wind.

It seems as if the wind had difficulty catching up to the figure.

"It's close..."

Luo Ruoxin muttered. With the help of the hongmeng pearl, she got to know the location of one of the cubes in this snow region.

And right now she was running towards that area.

'I'll have to be quick. According to hongMeng pearl, there are some guys near that area. I'll have to get there before them.

Thinking till here she quickened her pace and her speed increased by two times disappearing from that spot.

...

"So hot..."

Ye lingxi groaned.

No girls liked hot places as too much heat would damage the skin and Ye lingxi was of this category.

"Master, are you sure that one cube is this way? All I can see endless lava in this region."

She grumbled towards her master.

Fairy yunhua listening to her disciples bantering smiled,

"Hmph! You do not know the greatness of your master. If I had even 2℅ of my original strength, then I could cover the entire universe with my divine sense.

And now, although I am weak, so weak that I could not even muster up 1% of my power, covering this whole island is not so difficult for me.

So just shut up and get this test done with."

"ugh.."

Ye lingxi groaned and sped up, lest someone reaches there before her.

...

"So here it is."

Xiao Fan looked at the object present before him.

It was a cube the size of a Rubik's cube. But instead of multiple colours, a ball of blue light was present in the transparent faces of the cube.

"Oh... Shouldn't the teachers inform us about the advantages of the cube?"

Yes, the cube had a huge advantage. The ball of light was a huge compressed pure energy.

Absorbing it would be 2 times more effective than cultivating normally.

For example, a cultivator has to remove the impurities present in the air before taking it for cultivation.

This takes too much of one time, if someone was not talented enough then they would not be able to sense many impurities in the qi and inhale it.

Resulting in the accumulation of impurities and will potentially lead to stopping one's advancement to the next realm.

And this cube gives us a huge advantage in that aspect.

With this cube even if your talent is mediocre, you don't have to worry.

As the energy is already more than enough purified. And with its huge energy reserve, a beginning nascent soul cultivator could reach the peak stage in 50 years or so.

But that only applies to those with mediocre talents, but it was terrifying enough.

You know, the lifespan of Golden Core cultivators is about 500 years and some may not even reach the peak stage of Golden Core all their life.

Much less should be said about the nascent soul cultivators. They Can live at most 5000 years and reaching the peak stage in 50 years is more than shocking.

And if someone with talent uses it, then in just 5 years they can reach the peak of the nascent soul stage.

'Im sure that this is a treasure of these ruins. Not something made by the union. As for why they used it has rewards, it must be due to how useless it is for higher-level cultivators.

So they used it as a reward for the genius of the human race.

A wise decision indeed. '

Xiao Fan thought.

In these tough times when a single variable can cause wars between races, nurturing and training young geniuses is a wise thing to do for the survival of the race.

"Anyway this thing is useless to me. I should just let it be there. But before that..."

Xiao Fan turned his head towards his left side and spoke loudly,

"Shouldn't you come out now?..."

Hiss

As if waiting for him to call it, huge snake tens of meters in size slowly appeared before Xiao Fan from the depths of the forest.

The snake was a peak nascent soul-stage beast. And there was a clear sign of anger in its eyes.

'This should be the beast guarding this cube. '

Looking at the beast Xiao Fan confirmed his guess.

"Heh, If you want this cube, you should defeat me first," Xiao Fan challenged the beast.

The snake feeling that it's been challenged became angry.

It immediately roared at the sky and its body increased several times bigger, reaching 100 meters in height!

It looked down towards Xiao Fan with its vertical eyes which had completely turned red.

A huge black scale covered every part of its body and its huge fangs gave off the impression that it can even break a mountain!

Without wasting any time it opened its jaw wide showing its huge and sharp fangs and attacked Xiao Fan with those Fangs!

Seeing the snake attacking him there was no change of expression on his face.

He looked calm and composed as if what was attacking him was not a huge snake but a small worm.

Just when the snake was about to eat Xiao Fan with its huge Fangs...

Xiao Fan moved two of his hands forward catching the two humungous fangs bare-handed!

Even the snake felt something hold its fangs and tried to move, but unfortunately, it couldn't even move its head an inch!

Looking at the struggling snake Xiao Fan said, "Goodbye."

Tear!

Xiao Fan bisected the snake apart from its head to tail in the middle!

Venomous blood splashes to every tree and land, melting them almost instantly.

But mysteriously not even a single drop of blood fell on Xiao Fans' clothes!

It was as if even the blood were afraid of Xiao Fan and dodged themselves!

It was truly marvellous.

In the centre of the huge forest, standing before a small cube was a man emitting a mysterious aura and in front of him was a huge snake of 100 meters bisected from head to tail with not even a single drop of blood on the man's clothes!

No one would believe this if they don't see with their own eyes!

But unfortunately, no one was there to see the spectacular scene.
