[Mass Release: 6 out of 8]

.

“Farewell and good luck.

With that, her illusionary body started to disappear and after few seconds, it vanished completely.

Even when she was disappearing, her face maintained a smile.

A complicated feeling aroused in Orochi’s heart.

A young woman, forced to witness the massacre of her clan and was chased till the end of her life. He felt that her life was really miserable, but in his heart, he did not pity her as this world has its own rules. And these type of incidents is a common routine.

Looking at the place where Bindu Katan was floating, Orochi softly muttered,

“Rest in peace.”

Then he took the Jade crystal and the altar into his storage ring and moved closer to the milky pond.

When he got closer to the milky pond, as usual, he used the ‘Observation skill’ and the information that appeared did not differ from what Bindu Katan mentioned.

Stalactite Milk

Orange Grade Level 8 material

Description: If one drinks the Stalactite milk, then his/her body will get stronger. It can also nourish internal organs and strengthen them. Is also able to promote the quality of dantian and make the spiritual qi purer. Which results in the promotion of cultivation level.

.

Looking at the huge amount of Stalactite milk collected in the pond, Orochi couldn’t stop himself from smacking his lips.

But there was also a tinge of mockery when he remembered the words Bindu Katan said- Before I leave, let me give you another gift.

Her tone was like, if she didn’t tell him about the stalactite milk pond then Orochi would not even notice or investigate it. As if he was so blind?

Additionally, the pond is naturally formed, but she has the face to give it as a gift to Orochi. How comical?

As if she will take this pond to her afterlife.

Joke.

Orochi put this matter behind and looked at the milky pond which was filled with Stalactite Milk.

After he tried various methods of measuring the pond, he estimated that the amount of stalactite milk in the pond equaled at least 25-30 cubic meters of volume.

Seeing this large amount, Orochi took a deep breath.

Looking at the milky pond, Orochi does not mind staying here for few weeks and increase his cultivation with the help of this huge amount of stalactite milk. Because he has been neglecting his cultivation due to lack of resources but now that he has come across such a treasure pond, he is eager to increase his cultivation.

But unfortunately, there are people waiting for him and Orochi is sure that if he doesn’t go back to them, his wife Armelia will start to get worried about him and would surely try any means to find him.

So, to prevent all that from happening, he can only take away all the Stalactite milk and then use it after he reaches his destination.

With this idea in mind, from the system shop, he bought more than a hundred special bottles that can store the Stalactite milk and are also able to preserve its properties.

So, he spent almost 30-40 minutes collecting all the Stalactite milk in the pond. And he was able to obtain a total of 422 bottles of stalactite milk.

And maybe it was his lucky day and luck finally decided to pay him a visit, he was able to find 21 bottles of stalactite milk essence.

Originally, stalactite milk is a very viscous liquid. So, the amount of energy contained in a single drop of Stalactite milk cannot be described properly. But the viscous property of Stalactite milk essence is 100 times more when compared to the stalactite milk.

The difference between them is like a drop of milk and a drop of crude oil.

But similarly, the energy contained in a single drop of stalactite milk essence is 1000 times better than stalactite milk, just like Bindu Katan said.

So, Orochi completely drained the pond, and being a human, he was not yet satisfied so he even dug the bottom and surrounding walls of the pond to see if he could obtain anything else.

From the looks of it, luck which had decided to pay him a visit today had already returned back.

But Orochi was not disappointed, as he was more than satisfied from obtaining such a large number of stalactite bottles. His previous actions were just to test his luck.

Looking at his ‘Storage Box’ filled with so many bottles, he was extremely pleased with these gains.

Due to the huge amount of loot obtained from Ethan’s group, then from mining Low grade energy stones, and finally from the underground cave, all his storage rings were filled to brim and even the space of ‘Storage box’ had to be increased to 64 cubic meters, to store all the excess loot.

Finally, he decided to head back and group up with Armelia and June.

Before leaving, he took one last proper look at the huge cave and then started heading back.

But as soon as he stepped out of the huge bronze door, it started trembling.

Rumble

Actually, the whole cave was trembling.

Seeing this situation, Orochi’s heart sunk as he felt that the whole cave was crumbling.

So, without any delay, he quickly started running in the way through which he arrived.

Rumble

Rumble

Finally, rocks of various sizes started raining down and Orochi had to constantly dodge and defend against them, which in return decreased his speed.

Seeing that the situation was worsening, he disabled the “Stat Locking Function” and all his stats were fully unlocked. Due to this, his speed increased.

.

Orochi had entered the passage for almost an hour. June and Armelia have been waiting for him to show up.

During the wait, Armelia had asked June the same questions repeatedly- Aunt June, do you think Orochi will be fine and return safely? Nothing will happen to him, right? Can you try breaking the barrier which is blocking the passage?

Facing this barrage of questions from Armelia, even June started to get irritated with the situation.

And just when June was about to snap out and reprimand Armelia, the cave started shaking. It felt as if an earthquake has arrived.

“Aunt June, I think Orochi might be in danger, please do something.”

Armelia cried out anxiously.

Seeing her niece still worried about that boy in such a situation, June was helpless and irritated. She even felt that she made the biggest mistake of her life by accepting to accompany and escort these two.

But still, she answered in a normal tone,

“Don’t worry, with his capabilities I don’t think anything can happen to him. Just trust him.”

Swoosh

“Look”
