Chapter 21: Chapter 21: Foundation Establishment Realm
After Sam had dealt with Jacob, he didn't spare a second glance at the lifeless body lying on the bustling road below.
"Oh my god, is that...?"
"Did he just fall from the sky?"
"How could someone just fall out of nowhere?"
"Quick, take a photo!"
"Someone call an ambulance, fast!"
Sam could hear the bewildered exclamations of the people who had stopped their vehicles and formed a curious crowd a Jacob's lifeless form. Some snapped pictures while others phoned their frids, excitedly recounting the bizarre sce they had just witnessed.
Their reactions were nothing short of grotesque, as if they were merely spectators to some macabre show. It left Sam feeling disgusted.
With a derisive snort, Sam turned away from the spectacle and soared into the night sky, leaving behind the gawking onlookers and their soulless curiosity.
After arriving home late, Sam anticipated that his mom and aunt would already be asleep.
It wasn't his first time returning late, and usually, his mom would leave some leftover food in the kitch for him.
"Are you two still awake?" Sam inquired as he tered the house.
His mother exchanged a meaningful look with her sister, and with a stern expression, she said, "We need to talk, Sam."
Sam let out a weary sigh as he observed his mother's serious demeanor. It was the kind of expression she wore wh she was about to have one of those awkward talks with him. And these talks always ded with Sam blushing furiously out of embarrassmt.
'Did she find my study material again?' Sam wondered in his mind, feeling a bead of sweat form on his back.
"Your father and grandparts have found out that someone has awaked the Crimson Inferno Dragon Bloodline and Froz Abyssal Dragon Bloodline," Lorraine began, her gaze fixed on her indiffert nephew. "But you already knew that, didn't you?"
Sam simply nodded. "Yes."
"How?" Lorraine inquired, her curiosity piqued.
Sam leaned back in his chair and explained, "There's this girl, well, actually a noble vampire from the Scarlett Clan. She's the daughter of Nicholas Scarlett. She told me that people from the Hailstorm Clan and the Flareheart Clan have be searching for individuals who awaked their clan's main bloodlines."
Lorraine's initial concern about the awaked bloodlines seemed to shift to the vampire girl her nephew had mtioned.
While Hela narrowed her eyes slightly, Sam, noticing his mother's worried expression, quickly reassured her, "Don't worry, Mom, she's a good person. She's actually hiding from her father because he's trying to make her marry someone she hates."
He wt on to share everything about his counter with Amelia, though he omitted the part about letting her drink his blood via his neck.
He could already sse a brewing headache as he observed his aunt's possessive gaze. It surprised him, and he couldn't help but think, "Looks like Aunt Lorraine likes me too."
He wondered whether he should pursue this relationship he was still unsure about with Lorraine or not.
After all, he was still bound by earthly customs, and he pondered whether it might be considered taboo.
"What is your relationship with her?"
"She's just a FRIEND, that's all," he emphasized the word "frid."
"Anyway, since both clans have started searching for you, we must go to the Hailstorm clan," Hela told her son. "To cross the dimsional crack, you should at least be a lower stage Establishmt Foundation Realm cultivator... Sam, honey, why is your cultivation progressing so slowly?
You should have already reached the middle stage of the Foundation Establishmt Realm, but you're still at the peak of the Qi Condsation Realm... If there's a problem, you can always tell me?"
Sam sighed; he had completely forgott to mtion that he possessed Nine-Heavs Spiritual Veins. This meant he could harness all types of Earth and Heav Qi, including Fire, Ice, Water, Wind, Earth, Wood, Metal, Lightning, Dark, and Light.
Yes, he ev had the Light elemt, which wasn't part of the Nine Tributes because cultivators with Light Qi were exceptionally rare. Ev the Dark elemt itself was quite uncommon among cultivators. However, Sam, with his Nine-Heavs Spiritual Veins, had an affinity for all elemts.
But this also meant that he needed to absorb all t Qis to advance his cultivation.
The more affinities you possessed, the harder it became to increase your cultivation. On the flip side, it also meant you could joy more befits than someone with just one or two elemts.
"Mom, I have Nine-Heavs Spiritual Veins," Sam confessed.
"Nine-Heavs Spiritual Veins? I've never heard of those before," his mother admitted.
"It's a rare type of spiritual vein. People who have them can cultivate using all t Qis, just like me." He raised his hand and demonstrated his abilities.
First, he invoked his Lightning Qi, and a small bolt of blue lightning danced a his hand.
Th, he called upon his Wood Qi, causing tiny wood particles to appear on top of his hands.
With Wind Qi, a gtle breeze swirled a them, lightly fluttering their hair.
He continued to showcase all t elemts, but it was wh he demonstrated his Dark elemt that they were truly surprised.
Finally, he invoked his Light Qi, creating a radiant ball of light above his hands.
"Light Qi," his mother repeated in awe at his display.
"So that's why your cultivation has be slow," his aunt said, relieved.
"Son, try to break through to the Foundation Establishmt Realm soon," his mother urged.
After discussing various topics for some time, they left for their rooms.
Sam sat cross-legged on his bed, focusing on absorbing the suring spiritual ergy. He could sse that he was on the verge of breaking through to the Lower Stage of the Foundation Establishmt Realm, and the bottleck was gradually loosing.
After four hours of intse cultivation, Sam finally oped his eyes, realizing that he had successfully brok through to the Lower Stage of the Foundation Establishmt Realm.
"Codex," Sam called aloud, his voice filled with a sse of accomplishmt.
