Chapter 598 598. PINNACLE
His growth progressed steadily and he made sure to bring Erolia along with him. The pet cultivation skill saw him refining her core with his own essence, and the purer her core became the more her level increased.
Magical beasts were rather simple in terms of cultivation. Their entire power remained based on their core\'s quality.
Erolia was only a bit different since she could shift between forms to assume a human shape. Noah also found that the more she advanced the older her appearance grew. Soon she looked to be in her late teens.
Her features were amplified, attaining levels that would shake the hearts of men. Looks that could cause nations to go to war.
It only took about two weeks of constant refining for her to reach this point. Noah also advanced and by the end of those two weeks, he exited his cultivation room with a stunning level of power.
He now stood at level 352. Marking his entry into the higher stage. He wished to grow higher but during those days he had gone on small errands. Mostly for Elder Sarah. But most times even the grand elders would request his help.
A few more days passed after his breakthrough and he stabilized his power in the higher stage. During that period he also pushed Erolia\'s power into the higher stage and she spent more time in her soul space to fine-tune her new power.
Stepping out of his cultivation room, Noah appeared in the spacious living room of Elder Sarah\'s mansion. Jane sat on one of its sofas, but his sudden appearance had not startled her. Noah went and left as he pleased.
"Aiden," she called out, following his movement with her gaze. Now she couldn\'t even sense his power. He stood at a level that left a massive gap. Her senior continued to remain extraordinary.
"Jane," Noah responded, coming to sit before her.
She smiled and made another cup appear on the small table. She filled the small cup with wine and made it float towards him. Noah took hold of the brown wooden cup and poured its golden-colored contents down his throat. It left no effect whatsoever.
"Master went out… training with the others. After your breakthrough, it\'s clear how much she desires to advance. The items you gave her also helped a lot, but she\'s still not yet calm." Jane explained, heaving a sigh. She herself only just came out of a three days cultivation session. She would be returning in about an hour.
After Noah had returned from the castle of the grand elders, he proceeded to give both Jane and Elder Sarah mana stones and crystals. Of course, he hadn\'t dropped everything for the grand elders.
In merely two weeks Elder Sarah had cultivated so much that she also neared the end of the middle stage. Noah believed in about a week she would attain the higher stage. That itself spoke of her sheer determination and hard work.
Jane had been forced to follow in the footsteps of her senior and master, if not she would be left behind. She ended up crossing the halfway point of the middle stage but was still far behind her master.
The mana crystals gave the largest boosts. Merely small chunks of their mana were enough for days of cultivating all three vessels of power!
Noah had given both of them over 20 each, Jane had only been able to exhaust two in the last two weeks. Not only was the mana they stored abundant but due to its quality it took time for her body to break it down. Even elder Sarah struggled.
The first thing they had needed to do was wash their existence of the lesser quality mana. Before refilling their mana cores, soul cores, and body. Only after this point could they even begin to think of advancing.
However, after that arduous event that took them about a week to finish both experts could finally experience a rapid increase. In truth, they had only been cultivating for about a week.
"I see… you\'ve also been grinding hard, you\'re equally close to my level," Noah spoke, savoring a bit of the wine.
Jane gave a helpless smile. She knew Noah only tried to make her feel better.
"Your level? Even if I reach the peak of the higher stage I don\'t think I\'d be able to match you in a fight. Even Master said the same thing. I literally have no hope." She drank more wine after her words, but Noah shook his head even if he remained silent. Opting to look at her.
Jane blushed.
Their relationship had grown a whole lot now, and the addition of gratitude made a mixture of emotions that transformed into infatuation. Jane tried to keep it on the low, but Noah\'s stare made her heart thump.
"I\'m setting out… an errand for the grand elders," Noah announced, deciding not the make the woman any more awkward.
His words almost made Jane\'s expression fall completely.
"They ask of you an awful lot nowadays. Why can\'t they just send others to overwatch them?" Jane spoke, furrowing her brows.
Noah shrugged.
"I guess they trust me." He said.
"Tell master if she returns anytime soon." He spoke, now standing at the exit.
"And maybe if you reach the higher stage soon we can continue training. I still need to learn the rest of the forms." Noah suggested, leaving.
He had been unable to witness the bright light that shone on Jane\'s features. She stood and immediately went straight to cultivating.
Noah stepped on a platform of wind and ascended into the skies toward the location of the mansion.
After the deposit of the materials he gave to the grand elders one type of errand had been more common, and that would be none other than the task to watch tier 3 experts become tier 4.
Things were different this time around though.
The moment Noah reached the point that connected the guild hall of the central region to the clouds, he saw three figures descend from the clouds.
Elder Uriah, Elder Montel and Elder Adonis.
His eyes landed specifically on Elder Adonis and he immediately saw that Elder Ezra\'s words had been correct.
"So you\'ll be watching me cross over into the fifth tier," Elder Adonis commented with a little chuckle, even if his eyes were closed and his eyebrows creased every now and then due to the flickering of his aura.
He had reached the pinnacle of that realm. The fourth tier couldn\'t hold him anymore.
"That would be so," Noah responded before exchanging glances with the other elders. They departed from the city to a region that would hold that event.
