Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master



When William left it, it was just a place of ruins and death. There were tons of lava flooding the place, forming rivers, and eating up everything and anything in its path. There was a huge deep hole here, one that covered up the entire area.

But now things look a bit different. The hole was still there, and lava rivers were also. Yet the lava gathered up to form lakes, ones that looked weirdly calm and mind-relieving to look at! And that wasn't all! There were many weird trees and vegetation that grew all over the place!

"These…" William's eyes shone when he spotted these trees and vegetation.

"According to what I learnt from the city, it seemed like many seeds fell from the wind and got themselves to grow," Sloth shrugged, "we don't know how this happened, but it's remarkable, isn't it?"

"Indeed," William gulped while not telling Sloth anything of what he knew. These weren't trees and vegetation that came out from seeds carried by the wind. These came from the seeds buried deep in the heart of the world! And they were quite special to be called: The Origin Red Plants!

No one actually knew how seeds were planted and hidden deep under the ground. But on rare occasions, these seeds would find their way out, get in touch with copious amounts of spirit power, ending up growing and reaching such a stage.

"It's that Bear monster, hahahaha!" William suddenly spotted the trigger for what caused all this to happen. Seeds came out when this zone got destroyed like this, and yet that wasn't enough to let them grow.

If not for the wandering colossal storm, with the Scarlet Bear in its heart, none of this wouldn't happen! William imagined that monster marching around, enveloping areas with seeds, letting them get nourished by the concentrated amount of spirit power in that storm, ending up growing like this.

As he figured out the reason, he looked again at these trees. They were still growing, and didn't yield any fruit yet. Once they produced their fruits, one could consume them to cleanse their spirits, add more spirit power to them, and even open more meridians.

He knew meridians wasn't a term known in this tiny world, but it was pretty important in the outer world. There was a logical explanation for this world to not know about them, and that was thanks to the low-level spirit power here.

Meridians needed high-class spirit power to open and function. That was why William didn't focus too much on trying to open more meridians than the basic set he and others had, as he'd eventually fail in doing so.

"I need to take over this region…" his eyes shone with the brightness of greed, "I'll establish a grand spirit power gathering formation here, letting these trees and vegetations grow fast and produce their products in a few years… If that happens, then I'll be able to begin with a better start than I hoped for…"

He was feeling like he was supported by fate recently. He found lots of things that could help him to start on higher ground when reaching the outer world. The more he met such chances, the more he felt more confident.

"Listen up," as everyone arrived at the burnt-down Blue Hills zone, William turned to everyone and said, "We'll march down there. The area isn't safe, and we have to expect to face tons of dangers down there. Make sure to stay alert, help each other if needed, and always listen to my orders spread out to you by my vices and my team."

He already agreed with Sloth about the communication system established amidst this army. It was a mixture of masters coming from different origins. And so it was hard to communicate and control everyone.

Sloth suggested using old masters to do so, but William trusted his vices and team more. He spread them all over the army, acting as relay points, sending messages over to everyone through them.

He also wanted to deepen and strengthen the image and authority of his team in other masters' minds.

Then he started to walk down, and the entire army walked behind him.

As he expected, the moment he walked through this zone, many dangers appeared.

The first and the hardest to counter against was the lava fountain. The ground might seem solid, but it was like eggshells, getting cracked under their feet.

As they marched forward, many holes appeared, gushing tons of lava towards the sky. Many masters got burnt and even a few lost their lives. William had to spread out the army to cover ten kilometres while marching forward. Sticking together right now was quite risky. But things didn't develop to the better when he did so.

The army spread out, and then monsters appeared. These weren't normal monsters, as they appeared from the depths of the ground. This was enough to tell much about how scarily strong they were. Not to mention they got thick armour around their bodies, to let them handle the deadly lava underneath.

There were a different mix of these, crocodiles, frogs, snakes, and even rats! All were bright golden red in colour, with thick layers of scales or hardened skin as armour surrounding their bodies. They moved underground like sharks swimming in water. They appeared without warning, attacking viciously, enduring any attacks coming at them, before vanishing underground.

On many occasions, they grabbed a master or a few of them, took them deep into the ground, to kill and feed on them down there. William and Sloth had to give many orders, and even old masters found it hard to deal with them.

"The weakest of these is at an early stage dark gold grade! We can't continue like this!" Sloth came to find William, asking for his advice, "we tried to use water and ice, but nothing worked! Their outer bodies are like a hard rock, shielding anything we throw at them and making them not suffer any deadly wounds!"
