Necromancer Of The Shadows
768 Mid Level Rank One (Part 1)
"You got all the essence stones that you spent in the Star City from these mines, right?" Evan asked as he looked at low-level essence stones that were stuck in the walls of the low-level mine like glowing diamonds.
Cedar walked deeper into the mine cave and nodded his head. "A normal peak-level essence stone mine can easily produce around ten million high-level essence stones a year. If you consider all the mines present here, you can say that we get more than three hundred million high-level essence stones every year from all the mines present here."
"Three hundred million high-level essence stones..." Evan sucked in a breath of cold air when he heard Cedar and looked at him in shock.
"If these mines can produce around three hundred million high-level essence stones every year, then doesn't it mean you guys are filthy rich?"
"Well, if you are talking about the essence stones then yes, Drayds can be considered one of the richest races in the entire Utopia, but..." Cedar said and smiled bitterly. "If you are talking about other resources, then we are at the bottom of the list."
"Bottom of the list..." Evan raised an eyebrow hearing Cedar and asked in a confused voice, "Can't you use the essence stones produced by these mines to buy the resources that you need? No offence, but considering the low population of the Drayds, it shouldn't be difficult to provide them with enough resources using the three hundred million high-level essence stones that these mines produce, right?"
"It's not that easy..." Cedar said and shook his head. "The essence stones produced by the World Tree are a little different from normal essence stones. All the essence stones produced by it carry a small amount of the aura of the World Tree. If we directly use these essence stones, there is a certain level of chance that people will find out that these stones originated from the World Tree, and it will be dangerous for us." Cedar paused after saying this and added after a moment.
"In order to use the essence stones produced by the World Tree, we have to remove the aura of the World Tree from them. Only people who are rank four or above can remove the aura of the World Tree using their law power, so even though we have hundreds of millions of essence stones, the original amount that we can use each year to buy resources is not that high."
Evan frowned upon hearing Cedar and didn't know what to say. Their situation was really strange. They have enough wealth that can make anyone envious, but they can't use this wealth because of the danger of being discovered by others.
'What a mess...' Evan thought to himself as he rubbed his eyebrows. Suddenly, he remembered something and asked in a confused voice.
"By the way, earlier you said that the powers of the World Tree are currently sealed. What do you mean by that?"
Cedar smiled bitterly upon hearing Evan and asked in a gloomy voice, "Have you seen the World Tree that is inside Grandpa Sylvan's cave?"
"Yes," Evan nodded hearing Cedar, recalling the small tree that he had seen when he met Sylvan after entering the sealed world.
"Since you have seen the World Tree, then you must have seen the formation that surrounds it as well, right?"
Evan once again nodded hearing Cedar and suddenly thought about something.
"Are you saying that the formation is the thing that is restricting the powers of the World Tree?"
"Yes," Cedar nodded hearing Evan and said in a helpless tone. "If we don't restrict the powers of the World Tree using that formation, other people will be able to sense its out-of-the-
world aura, and we will be discovered despite being inside the sealed world."
'So that formation is actually a sealing formation, huh,' Evan said inwardly, surprised that the formation he saw around the World Tree was actually for sealing its powers.
"What will happen if the powers of the World Tree are completely unsealed?" Evan asked Cedar after a moment.
Cedar smiled warily and shook his head upon hearing Evan's question. "Honestly, I don't know. I had asked Grandpa Sylvan in the past, but he told me to become strong enough to unseal the powers of the World Tree by myself without worrying about other people and see for myself."
Evan looked at Cedar and couldn't help but smile, feeling the determination in his voice.
"Well, I hope you soon become strong enough and unseal its powers as I also want to see what kind of powers are hidden inside the World Tree."
Cedar just smiled upon hearing Evan and didn't say anything.
"This place should be right for you. What do you think?" Cedar asked after walking into the low-level mine for a few minutes.
Evan felt the world essence around him and noticed that the density was way higher than the Essence Formation Room in his house. He looked deeper into the cave and noticed that the density and amount of the World Essence were even higher in the deeper areas.
'If I cultivate here, I should be able to reach the mid-level in ten days,' Evan thought and nodded his head at Cedar. "I think this place is good enough."
"Since that's the case, you can use this place. I will also be cultivating in one of the mid-level mines for the time being. Contact me once you reach the mid-level," Cedar said hearing Evan, and left the cave.
Evan watched Cedar leaving the cave and felt the world essence around him.
"Let's begin," He muttered and sat down on a side platform in the cave. The moment Evan sat down and closed his eyes, his Primordial Monarch core started to spin, and the world essence rushed towards him from all directions.
Sensing the amount of World Essence that his core was absorbing, Evan couldn't help but smile. "I might not even need ten days at this rate," He said as his core absorbed the World Essence.
Suddenly, an idea came into Evan's mind and his eyes lit up.
"If this works, my absorption speed will increase even more," He said in a low voice, and some strange thorn-filled vines came out of his hands and pierced the walls of the cave.
"Energy Devouring!"
