Mixed Blessing System



'So the Church headquarters is in Norid, and they are in Rablus 'chasing' me...' Lothur thought as that man leafed through the large book on the table between them.

"What about Sages? Are there Sages in this region?" Lothur asked after a moment, making a funny expression.

That man laughed upon hearing the curiosity this young man had in mind. "If there are Sages around the continent, we know nothing about them. Saints can manipulate space and hide much about themselves and their positions, so Sages can do much more.

Who knows, maybe there is one of them listening to us from afar right now."

This man commented without ill intentions, just casually considering a remote possibility. But Lothur knew better than this Soul Core Transcendent about the possibilities of Saints, so he judged Sages much more seriously.

Sages should be able to bend space and create their own domains, where only other Sages could find them but where only the chosen of these domains could enter them.

In a way, these were like Secret Realms, only much more developed and totally under the control of their creators.

Thinking about this, Lothur sighed, imagining that many such people could live hidden away on the continent.

Tens of billions of living beings of various races exist in this world. Among them, tens of millions were capable of cultivation and spiritual growth.

It would be hard not to find a single expert successful in transcending level 21!

If there were no Saints throughout practically the entire continent, Lothur might doubt his theories. But since there were several of them, even in places like Leopoldine, he couldn't help but imagine that several Sages were hiding around this world.

"So you have no information about them? A pity, that was a curiosity I had." He smiled at that man.

"Is there something else about Rablus that I should be concerned about?"

"Yes." That man said before turning his eyes back to the book in front of him. "Further north of Rablus is the beginning of the Ancestral Region. That area has the presence of several powerful spiritual beings of non-human races, hostile to humans.

So I would advise caution when approaching the northernmost area. There probably lie the greatest dangers of Rablus."

Humans practically dominated Concordia.

Humans controlled about 60% of these continental lands and were the race with the most members capable of cultivating spiritual energy in this world.

The other 40% was divided between various races. Still, most of this non-human dominated area was precisely in the Ancestral Region, an area further north on the continent that covered 3 entire states and parts of 3 other states.

Other areas around the continent were part of the territories of beasts and other beings, but these were scattered irregularly, unlike this area completely dominated by non-humans.

Lothur didn't know much about the Ancestral Region. Yet, he was aware that the descendants of the soul fragment that gave him the mission to search for his family were hybrids of humans with the Ancestral Folk.

So there was a possibility that he would have to enter that area!

He then asked. "I believe you do not have the information I am searching for, but is there any possibility that a Cultivation House post in Rablus has information about groups of hybrids of humans and Ancestral Folk?"I think you should take a look at

Few of the Ancestral Folk would agree to have sex with humans. But they did exist, and so hybrids of the two races had existed since ancient times.

"Certainly. The Ancestral Folk are very traditional and don't accept hybrids. So at our organization's headquarters in Rablus, there must be news about groups of hybrids." This Transcendent stated.

This post didn't have the information Lothur wanted about the soul fragment family, but the headquarters of the Cultivation House was in Rablus, a state where the northernmost part bordered the Ancestral Region. So there was undoubtedly information about it in posts of that organization in such a state.

'I'll stop by the Cultivation House again when I get to Rablus.' Lothur pondered silently, figuring it would be a good thing for him to start looking for the fragment's family with the hybrid groups that that organization probably knew about.

He had the name of that soul fragment, so when he arrived in Rablus, he also intended to look up that name.

Anyway, with this not-so-in-depth information, but better than he had before he passed this place, Lothur soon paid the coins due for this service.

Having thanked the person who attended him, he soon left, intending to buy some items in this city and then continue his journey to the northwest.

...

Lothur would find no problem in his shopping around the northernmost city of Lenz that he had stopped.

He had merely stopped by an alchemist's resource store and bought some ingredients and books.

He had nothing in mind at the moment to do with this. Still, he wanted to continue raising his rank as a spiritual professional, particularly in alchemy.

Among all the professions, the ones that could help him the most were formations and alchemy. After all, through them, he could strengthen his group, creating pills, potions, and formations capable of strengthening their souls and bodies and providing training experiences.

His skills as a formations master were already at a reasonable level, so Lothur's focus now was on raising his knowledge in terms of alchemy.

Having made his purchases in that large city, he left without drawing local attention, noticing several members of the Seraphim Church nearby but not bothering to act against them.

He understood the side of the people in that organization. Besides the fact that it was really a big concern that someone like him existed, they could get a Diamond-grade Soul Bone if they killed him!

Hell, Lothur himself would pursue a hybrid if he had the chance!

So he understood the motivations of his enemies and wouldn't just go around killing every member of this organization he saw in his path.

That would be foolish and would only draw these people investigating him towards him, something he didn't want.

So Lothur merely ignored even one of the level 19 Saints of the Church in this state and went on with his journey, not taking long to start flying through the vacuum of space.

That way, he would cross the border from Lenz to Utral, one of the empires bordering Leopoldine.

It was not in his interest to stop in Utral but in Cesha to obtain new information, so for the next few days, he would travel without stopping in cities like the one before!
