Chapter 122: EIGHT YEARS OF NON STOP CULTIVATION
Arjun and Rick in the main hall were clearly disappointed. They were angry with themselves.
Arjun said, " If this keep going on like this, then we are definitely not going to have any future."
Rick said, " As an adventurers, we need to have the ability to give at least a tough time for our opponents. But we couldn't even lift our hand. On top of that, we couldn't see anything at all."
Arjun said, " Darkness is just an excuse, Rick! Think about it. In the future we are going to face the army of dragons. These constructs don't have the ability to think at all. But those dragons do. They won't wait for the day in order to kill us. What if we have to face the enemy in the night? Would we go and say that it's an unfair battle because it's the night time and we couldn't see a d*mn thing? Unable to fight during the night time is our weakness. And our enemy will take the fullest advantage of that. We don't have anyone to blame but ourselves when we kick the bucket."
Rick said, " You mean we have to overcome our weakness!"
Arjun said, " Exactly! I don't care about anything else. We have to overcome this weakness at all cost."
Rick asked, " What should we do then?"
Arjun said, " I'm going to improve myself first. I don't care how long it would take. I'm not going in until I reach the 7th Level Of Divine Origin Stage!"
Rick asked in surprise, " Boss! That will probably take 1000 years!!!"
Arjun said in anger, " I don't care. At our current stage I don't have the confidence in defeating those constructs, even if our real bodies go. We were actually defeated by a single construct. First it had to move to you and then kill you. Then it had to move once again and kill me. It killed two of us and we don't even had any clue at all. That's why I'm not going in until I reach the 7th level of divine origin stage."
Rick nodded his head and said, " Fine then! I'll also train. I don't know how strong I'll get until you reach the 7th level of divine origin stage. But I know that I'll also improve to some extent. So let's train together then."
Arjun and Rick started to do physical exercise. They didn't care how long it would take. Since the day they became gods, they stopped being hunger. So they will never feel hungry in their life. But they can eat and drink anything that they want to.
Days passed. Months passed. After nine months Arjun broke through and reached 5th level of divine origin stage. Rick reached the ending phase of the 3rd level of divine origin stage.
Arter three years Arjun made a breakthrough and entered the 6th level of divine origin stage in cultivation. Rick also made some progress. He reached the 4th level of divine origin stage in cultivation.
After five years Arjun made another breakthrough. He reached the 7th level of divine origin stage in cultivation. Rick at the same time reached the mid phase of the 5th level of divine origin stage in cultivation.
They took 8 years to reach their current levels. In these 8 years, they did physical exercise. They rested because they don't want to face any bottlenecks in their cultivation. They did some breathing exercises.
Every time they made their breakthrough, they would go to a corner and test their power. They wanted to get used to their new powers.
After 8 years, they reached to their own new power. Arjun has 8 pink colour stars on his Divine Core. As for Rick, he has 5 pink colour stars on his Divine Core.
Rick said, " Boss! I don't understand. Why are we getting stronger so quickly. Lord Magmeel said that it would take 10 billion years to reach the 14th level of divine origin stage. We started to train in our divine power since the day we entered the maze. That means a total of 9 years. In these 9 years I reached 5th level of divine origin stage. And I completely filled right side of my conscience with the light energy. I even started to fill my left side with the darkness energy. And all it took is just 9 years."
Arjun said, " I was thinking the same. I reached the 7th level of divine origin stage from the 3rd level in just 9 years. I made some improvements in my divine power too."
Rick asked, " What do you think is the reason behind all this?"
Arjun said, " I don't know. But I feel that Magmeel didn't say something about it. I mean there exist something that we don't know. That's what I feel."
Arjun continued, " Whatever! Let's leave this place after we cleared the fourth door!"
Rick was stunned. He asked, " Why?"
Arjun said, " Look at ourselves. Before we entered the maze, I was at the 3rd level of divine origin stage. As for you? You were yet to reach the first level. We learned cloning technique. More importantly we are gaining some priceless experience. Look at the silly mistakes that we have made during the battles. I think this priceless experience should not end with only us. I want all the six of us who are going to gain the power of an elemental king dragon, to gain these experiences."
Rick said, " That's right! We are dying here because of the silly mistakes that we are doing in the battle. But we are learning something from each death. If only two of us gain these experiences, and other four has to face the dragons with no experience, then they will die very quickly. You were right. They need to be here. This place will teach them everything that it thought us."
Arjun added, " What's more? We only have five members in total. We still need the sixth one."
Rick nodded his head and said, " We still have lot of work to do once we go home."
Arjun said, " That's right! We have a lot of work to do. Two months ago, Adam completely filled his conscience with light and the darkness energy. I activated his gates. He entered the gate of light and started to learn the Runic Language."
Rick was thrilled. He said, " That's awesome."
Arjun shook his head and said, " No. That is only half awesome! He needs divine power to enter the gate of the darkness. A natural divine core is formed in his conscience. But it is still yet to be activated."
Rick said, " S*it! That's right! We still have that major problem left. How are we going to get our hands on the soul power of not one but four elemental king dragons?"
