Female Novel
Chapter 2605 Elder
After listening to Sigurd elaborate on Emerald Cauldron Sect, Jared finally got what he needed. Asit turned out, the sect wasn't that powerful. But since the members were all alchemists, neighboringsects and even demon beasts from Imperial Beast City held them in high regard. Thanks to that,Emerald Cauldron Sect had been living safely and very comfortably.
With it being the only alchemy sect in the vicinity, it was no surprise that humans and beasts greatlyrespected Emerald Cauldron Sect. Many people had even taken the initiative to give the sect amyriad of herbs so they could formulate more medicine to cure the sick.
As a result, Emerald Cauldron Sect amassed an impressive amount of resources, spiritual plants,and pills over the years.
Needless to say, Jared was tingling with excitement. Oh, how wonderful! As my cultivation levelgrows, the resources I need also increase exponentially, so it's great that Emerald Cauldron Sect'sresources will soon be mine!
There was, however, one thing that baffled him. “Since Emerald Cauldron Sect is so famous in thearea, why are there still people who dare fight with you guys over the Grus Divina?”novelbin
When we were hunting for the Grus Divina, those from the Nesser family had fought with theEmerald Cauldron Sect members without hesitation! Whatever happened to respecting the sect?
“What? Someone fought with us over the Grus Divina?” Sigurd exclaimed, knowing nothing aboutthe incident because he hadn't been involved in the search for the herb. Despite that, he quicklyregained his composure. “The only ones who would dare fight with us over the mystical herb wouldbe the Nesser family from Willowbank.”
“Why?” Jared asked.
“The Nessers hired an alchemist from somewhere to specially formulate all kinds of pills for theirfamily. For that reason, they, too, need a constant supply of spiritual medicines and mystical herbs.Since they have their own alchemist, they don't need to rely on Emerald Cauldron Sect, which iswhy we often fought over resources.”
At last, everything had become clear to Jared.
I see... The only thing Emerald Cauldron Sect has going for them is their alchemy skills. However,once someone has acquired an alchemist and the ability to formulate pills, they won't have to botherwith the sect anymore or show them respect. Take King Yuven's Imperial Beast City, for example.Now that I've written a book of alchemy techniques that the beast race can use for their cultivation,Imperial Beast City can toss Emerald Cauldron Sect aside once it has gotten its own alchemist!
While Jared and Sigurd continued their journey to Emerald Cauldron Sect, the Nesser family inWillowbank had a more important task at hand. Everyone was chattering among themselves asfamily members knelt outside the ancestral hall in the Nesser residence.
The only people who stood in the ancestral hall were the head of the Nesser family, CameronNesser, his son, Chev, and their alchemist, Yael Huntington.
What was most surprising, however, was the corpse that lay before the three men. It was covered ina thick layer of dust, and its flesh had long withered. From the looks of it, there was no doubt it hadbeen kept in the ancestral hall for many years.
The corpse belonged to the elder of the Nesser family, Eamon Nesser. Since it showed no signs ofdecay after his death, the family decided to enshrine it in the ancestral hall.
However, the reason the entire Nesser family had gathered together was far more incredible thananyone could imagine—Eamon might very likely be brought back to life!
Some time back, a beam of light had shone on the ancestral hall, and Eamon's corpse hadimmediately emitted an aura, much to everyone's shock.
The aura might be faint, but it was undeniably present.
Taken aback by the sudden changes, Cameron wasted no time getting Yael to check it out. After athorough investigation, the alchemist broke the news to him. “Elder Nesser isn't dead at all. He's stillvery much alive! He only seems dead because his aura is exceedingly weak!”
That sent Cameron reeling with joy. Oh, my goodness! I can't believe Elder Nesser, who we thoughthad been dead for over a thousand years, was alive this whole time!
In an attempt to fully revive Eamon, Cameron immediately instructed Yael to think of a solution. Thatwas also why Chev had been sent to search for the Grus Divina. Unfortunately, because of EmeraldCauldron Sect, Chev had only managed to bring back the beast core of the bloodthirsty beast.
Then again, despite not having the Grus Divina, Yael had still successfully formulated a pill to wakeEamon up from his slumber once and for all.
