Chapter 58 Cyrus's Finding
Rita's eyes instantly lit up when he heard the description of Infinite Pleasure. Although this ability wasn't as helpful as Charm Perfume, but in a sense, it was even more precious than Charm Perfume.
Because she didn't need to fall into a meditative state and remain static while cultivating as long as she had yang essence, and she lacks anything but that.
Cyrus was also quite astonished when he confirmed it was Infinite Pleasure because this ability was one of the core abilities of Devil's Spouse Technique and very hard to awake, but Rita did in the foundation-building realm.
As a creator of the DST, he knew better than anyone that the innate abilities of DST were random, and they manifested according to the practitioner's desire and talent. It doesn't matter if they had the complete technique or not.
This loophole was also left behind by Cyrus for a special reason, which will be revealed in time.
"Alright, stop gloating. I'll teach you bronze-grade spells until you absorb your benefits, and we'll continue toward area-1." Cyrus stated.
Rita's joyous expression became serious, and she couldn't help but ask, after thinking about what had happened before, "Will you encounter the same situation?"
She knew she barely managed to survive last time and even put Cyrus's life at risk as well. That feeling of helplessness was terrible and still vivid in her mind.
That's why she was taking this even more seriously because she didn't want to appear so helpless again.
Cyrus looked at Rita's grave expression, and his lips curled up slightly before he replied, "Don't worry, that situation was one time only. I won't put you through that kind of experience again."
Rita shook and head, "No, I don't mind. I'll go through the same thing, even worse for you. So please teach me how to survive those situations." Her expression was filled with conviction.
Cyrus was quite pleased with Rita's reply and thought he was getting worried about her walking on the path of a sex slave being unjust. With this kind of determination, she won't be controlled by her lascivious desires.
Afterward, Cyrus began to teach her more ice spells of yellow and bronze grades.
The yellow-grade spells were quite easier for Rita now. She could learn them in ten to fifteen minutes, and only the bronze grade spell was complex for her, and she took six or ten hours to learn just their structures.
Just like that, five days passed, and on this day, Cyrus and Rita descended from the sky right outside area-3.
The skeleton army was long scattered after Rita's golden glow was refined entirely by her, and they were still busy on their own, so they didn't pay much attention to those undead.
Rita's eyes were giving off a profound feeling as she looked around calmly, "Why didn't you go to area 1 directly?" asked Rita in confusion.
Cyrus replied coolly, "In these past five days, while you were brainstorming. I've been observing the soul winds flow and the soul Qi density, which is surprisingly surging every twelve hours. After some scouting, guess what? I found that the focal point of this surge is not area-1 but this area-3!"
Rita was startled for a moment as realization dawned upon her, "So, that's where you always vanished."
Cyrus chuckled, "I don't want to distract you in your studies. Anyhow, this place is quite barren, and don't you find it strange that there isn't a single undead in this vicinity around over a five-hundred-meter radius?
"Every time the soul Qi rose, this area is the focal point of it, and there's no undead in this area while other places are teeming with them. Although Area-1 is also surging with soul Qi and it's the densest area with soul winds as well.
"But I have yet to notice any Qi surge from there, and this place, for a moment, even surpassed area-1 before it returned to its current state after every Qi surge." He spoke with a subtle smile.
After getting the ability to use Qi, Cyrus was no longer helpless like before. There were many abilities he could use for reconnaissance with a Golden Grade spell called Soul Eyes which was made to observe anything related to the soul.
Rita also understood what Jacob was trying to imply, and her eyes winded, "So, according to you, that dimension core should be in this place and not in the area-1?"
Cyrus smiled before his eyes turned somewhat cold, "I'm sure of it. Before, I didn't think much of this dimension core and thought it was just an object. But now, I no longer think that way.
"Because after observing for some time, I discovered that there is another zone dense with soul Qi like district A, and that zone is fifty miles inside district B. I even spotted another being from the underworld who seemed to dig the entire place like a crazy idiot.
"If I'm not wrong, then that dimension core is far from being just an object, and it might be sentience who can create fake dimension core zones to protect the real area where it actually is.
"Even if it's not the dimension core, then it had to be its guardian who is sending others on wild goose chase while slowly cumulating its strength. It's just a pity since I'm here."
Rita felt goosebumps when she heard Cyrus's assessment of the dimension core and its guardian. If not for Cyrus pointing it out, she might really never even think about this.
Only someone who has experienced this kind of scenario can think in such a direction and reach this conclusion. These kinds of tricks were really child's play in front of Cyrus.
Still, it didn't mean he was absolutely right. There were many uncertainties and loopholes in this theory. But Cyrus believed his gut feeling more, which seldom being wronged in the past.
"So, what should we do? Do we need to search the entire place? It won't be easy." Rita asked as she vigilantly looked around.
Cyrus's lips curled up as he looked at a ten-story plaza with a huge name sign, 'Police Training Center.'
He spoke with a mocking glint in his eyes, "Just wait a minute. You'll be able to sense it from this distance!"
