"You!?" Demi and Mable were shocked as they heard Leylin speak so casually about Mable's identify.

"Who are you? A normal person would have no way of knowing this information.You must be from the Dark World!" Demi gripped her short sword as she assumed a fighting posture channeling her profound qi vigorously all the while prompting Mable behind her.

"I will give you three seconds to lower your weapon or else you outcome would be worst than these corpse." Leylin eyes turned cold as a horrifying Profound Qi undulation mixed with a ominous bloodlust gale erupted from him. The pressure attacked the two women leaving them immobile. This was actually the ability of Spirit Sense, an ability accessible by Disaster Realm Warriors and although Leylin is lacking in the cultivation realm, his understanding of the spiritual sense is extremely adequate to use this ability despite the fact.

"Sister, lower you weapon. If he wanted to, he could easily kill us, didn't you see how this many vicious warriors were akin to ant before him." Mable interjected as she hold Demi's hand lightly.

"Hmm... although you look stupid and naive, you ain't that useless. Maybe that part of yourself is just acting, a facade to hide your real cunning self." Leylin smiled lightly giving a side glance at her.

"What do you want from me? I assume you don't have any bad intentions. Let me tell you, If you help me reach Merchant Union safely, I would reward you generously and.. "

"Oh? what would you reward me with exactly? except for your dead grandfather's surname and your fate of being chased around like a dog, what do you even have to offer." Leylin laughed as he spoke disdainfully.

"Mother-"

"You are right! But I do have some means you know, or why else would I run to Merchant Union of all places."

Leylin looked at her and shook his head with amusement.

"Even the so-called means you talk about is just a last ray of hope your holding onto, a fate of leaving your wellbeing into other people hands, what a pitiful outcome for someone who call themselves warrior! Does the Iron Eagle King's blood even flow through your veins."

Mabel grandfather is the infamous Iron Eagle King - King Madden Halifax.

In the memories of the Berkan Lenoir, He was the General of the Eagle Army of the Fire Empire, who was a Nirvana-Level warrior and held the real power of the Fire Empire!

The Iron Eagle King was not only famous in the Fire Empire, but also well known in the Merchant Union and the God-blessed Empire.

Madden was a legendary military leader who was seen in every battle between the Fire Empire and the God-blessed Empire. He was famous for his cruelty on the battlefield, and uncountable people had perished in his hands!

Madden was merciless to his foes, and was also obstinate to his own people, thus offending many powerful people. Three years ago, in a battle between the Fire Empire and the God-blessed Empire, Madden was killed by five Nirvana-Level warriors.

For he had offended a lot of people when he was alive, his family got into trouble as soon as he died. Just in a few days, many of his direct relatives were slaughtered, thus the big family sank at once.

"All the past glory and power destroyed in just a moment. To tell you the truth the reason for your family demise is the weakness that you all posses. No matter how great Iron Eagle King, he was but a mere mortal. When drunk on power mortal loose sight of future and isolate themselves even though that cannot defend the actually retaliation. It's your arrogance to assume you would be able to offer me anything when your own existence is in question. Now stay aside, I have more important things to care about." After mercilessly stomping on Mable intention, Leylin moved forward without caring about her.

Leylin knows that Mable is the Eagle King's granddaughter, the only survivor of her family. The Dark World is an organization of assassins in the Empire, and it was the one who slaughtered her family.

She could survive only because of her Martial Spirit. On that day, her zither killed a lot of people in an invisible way, for her Martial Spirit has something to do with music.

The Dark World wants her because their lord trains in a vicious Martial Skill and loses his mind now and then. He wants to calm himself with the help of her music.

Leylin is a bit interested in her special martial spirit but everytime she operates her Martial Spirit and kills people, several of her veins break like the zither strings. Before the veins reconnect, the Profound Qi can't move fluently. She would get injured heavily if she operated the Profound Qi, and it would take more time for the Martial Spirit to recover.

'Playing veins as strings and using the Profound Qi to actually kill people through a form of sound attack, it's obviously related to some degree of spirit manipulation.' Leylin walked to the corpse and looked to search them while the two girls witnessed.

"You must have heard them talking about their haul right?"

"We..." Demi and Mabel began to sweat and step backwards as Leylin dark eyes rested on them.

"We promise to not tell anyone."

"Hmmm... sure, I believe you." Leylin nodded and turned his attention away. Mable and Demi were monetarily shocked by his nonchalant behavior, it was to be kept on mind that the thing the mercenaries discussed about is a Spirit Level Marital Skill !

Spirit Level Martial Skills are very rare. Even for the royal families from Fire Empire, there are only five kinds of Spirit Level Martial Skills. Any practice method for a Spirit Level Martial Skill would be worth millions, and countless big families would even be willing to kill for it.

Across the Fire Empire, the God-blessed Empire, and the Merchant Union, there were around 100 warriors who had reached the Earth Level and the Nirvana Level for a warrior. However, among all these 100 warriors, those with Spirit Level Martial Skills only counted for a quarter of those warriors!

And among that quarter, some were even studying and practicing the same kind of Spirit Level Martial Skills.

According to the rumor, across the entire the Fire Empire, the God-blessed Empire, and the Merchant Union, there were only 18 kinds of Spirit Level Martial Skills that were already known to the humankind.

And each and every kind of those Spirit Level Martial Skills were all possessed by various powerful families or warriors that ruled their own little kingdoms.

Such as the Lenoir Family.

The Lenoir Family had possessed various kinds of Martial Skills, such as for the Mortal Level and the Sacred Level. However, it only had one kind of Martial Skill of the Spirit Level, which the Master of the Family, Eren Lenoir, believed to be the most precious family treasure. Even the his own descendants had no idea where he had kept that Spirit Level Martial Skill.

"It seems you are in huge luck!"

Demi eyes were filled with anticipation as Leylin dug out the backpack of the warrior leader with excitement and didn't waste any time opening it.

But just before looking at them, he turned his back towards them leaving the two unable to see.

"Can you guys please move out for a while, I need to check my harvest, I hope you understand my reluctance to share my secrets with you."

"Hmph!" Mable snorted as she turned her face away, while Demi gritted her teeth but stayed silent and leaving to the cave's entrance. Leylin has every right to not show them the content and they can't protest either, Leylin also knows that neither would disclose about his findings and even if they did, how would anyone find him? Hence, there is no need to silence them, obviously if they played smart, their demise won't be simple.

A strong wave of silver light started to shine out from the backpack. The stone cave that was once buried in darkness was suddenly lit up and became as bright as the outside!

"...."

Three shining crystals appeared from the bag and brightly lit the cave.

One of them was rhombus shaped and the other two were oval shaped. They all looked crystal clear and were diffusing waves.

Obviously there was an extraordinary energy hidden within them.

"So this is a Demon Crystals!" Leylin looked at the crystals interested, he obviously knows about the whole content of the harvest but that still didn't deter his intrest in them.

Leylin squatted and began to examine the three Demon Crystals carefully. After a long time, he observed, "Level Six demon beasts crystals but due to lack of database I cannot know which beast it actually comes from."

Leylin was quite interested in these items because he have dealt with something similar in the past, the demon crystal from Beast World. Leylin knows that energy in Demon Crystals is the best material for alchemists and blacksmiths.

"I could easily sell this for money or just use it for experiments after increasing my database." Leylin put the crystal back, and continued to dig in the bag.

Afterwards, he took out a transparent jade bottle from the bag which was on the ground, he stared at the red liquid inside.

The liquid in the jade bottle was like a flame. As Leylin shook it gently, the flame also danced to the rhythm.

"Although typically it's not much use to me and someone like Demi would be the best candidate to use it but why should I give it to her, it's better to just study this natural source origin myself or just sell it. It's the Earth Core Flame Essence afterall!"

In Grace Mainland, it's common knowledge among warriors that there are three types of flames referred to as Human Flames, Earth Flames and Sky Flames.

Human Flames, are the magical flames in human warriors, which is a vital factor for alchemists and blacksmiths to train with. Every high-level alchemist or blacksmith owns a Human Flame, because only it can raise their skill to the highest.

The Earth Flames and Sky Flames exist between the earth and sky, such as the Earth Core Flame in the center of the earth and the Volcano Core Flame from the bottom of a volcano, and are formed naturally.

The difference between Earth Flames and Sky Flames, is that the latter has a consciousness!

Natural flames without a consciousness are called Earth Flames, which are regarded as a treasure like precious stones. As for a Sky Flame, it can think, just like humankind. It is immortal and has magical power, which is the most special life entity in this world. Some Sky Flames were formed at the beginning of the Grace Mainland.

Though Leylin looked indifferent, this idea stirred a storm in his mind. Leylin is not someone who lacks the knowledge about the higher realm of strength as a law being himself, he knows about the mysterious of worlds consciousness and the various forms it may take. If the Sky Flames is actually immortal and so magical, its most definitely related to the origin essence of the World itself.

The mere idea of being able to access origin force of a World is extremely exciting.

Leylin looked close as he stared at the red flames," This is the leftover liquid after an Earth Core Flame turned into a Sky Flame. It's neither Earth Flame nor Sky Flame, but something in between."

"It's said that, after millions of years. Over time, Earth Flames have the chance to gain consciousnesses and turn into a Sky Flame, but the possibility is very small. Not all Earth Flames have the chance for evolution."

"This thing can enhance the Human Flame and improve one's Martial Spirit!"

A Human Flame is from one's body and can't be hotter than the flames in nature. Only top level warriors can make their Human Flames as hot as those in the natural world after strengthening them several times and this liquid can enhance one's Magic Flame and give it the temperature of an Earth Flame!

"Well let's get straight to the most important thing, The Martial Skills of Spirit Level."

Thinking about the skill book, Leylin began to search in the bag again immediately.

"This is it." He took out a dark yellow ancient book. He glanced at it and said, "A. I. Chip use the knowledge of ancient language from the file of Berkan Lenoir to decode the book's content. "

The previous owner of Leylin's body was a big fan of ancient things. Though he knew nothing about martial arts, he was much better than most so-called scholars in this world when it came to ancient languages and historic sites.

Leylin took a glimpse at the ancient letters on the book cover as blue light sparkled from his eyes soon as A. I. Chip got to work, and mumbled the word naturally, "Gravitational Field..."

[Beep! Scanning.... Scan complete! Gravitational FieldThe space in the Field would twist and thus, create attraction. Once the Field created, it would drag everyone but its creator into it. Under its power, anyone who was dragged into the Field would automatically spin and their blood and flesh would be squeezed. Their Profound Qi would be suppressed and they wouldn't be able to operate their Martial Skills.]

"Great!" Leylin smiled satisfied as he found a great skill to add to his long list of repertoire.

"A.I.Chip scan and record the skill." Leylin immediately commanded and started to record the steps of the skills, there is no way he would not thoroughly study a high level martial skill like this.
