Chapter 57: Ancient Dragospider Diagram
"If you had accepted me as your master, then I would have only passed the technique to you. But now that you have rejected…" Rudolf Allheaven stretched his words a little to look at David's reaction just in case to see if he was pretending.
However, David's expression remained unchanged. Why would he even care? He already had the best things in the world that he could ask for.
"Close your eyes, everyone. I will send the technique directly into your minds." Rudolf's eyes flashed, and beams of light shot towards David and the other three, hitting directly in the center of their eyebrows.
At this time, Mary's expression was ugly. She hated when people directly transferred information to her head. It was just rude and disrespectful; just by this single action, all the goodwill she had for Rudolf vanished from her heart.
"Ancient DragoSpider Diagram." David muttered in a low voice as he went through the information that had appeared in his mind.
The Divine Drago-Spider was a dreadful monster of cosmic proportions. Legend says it was born from a supernova's heart, gifted with telekinetic power that could manipulate entire planets.
Of course, David wasn't going to manipulate a planet after learning the Ancient DragoSpider Diagram, as the technique only tried to imitate its power; it could never match the real thing—or so he thought.
While Allen and David looked excited about the technique, Sebastian and Mary didn't really care about it. Their paths were already set from the start; cultivating this technique would only hinder them. However, it wouldn't be entirely useless for them either. They could still incorporate its ideas into their own techniques.
While David and the others were busy with their own thoughts, Rudolf started to speak.
"You better start practicing the technique as soon as possible so that I can guide you. I don't have much time left."
David censored his earlier words and only focused on the last few words that came out of Rudolf's mouth.
"Don't have much time left."
"Don't have much time left."
These words repeated in David's head again and again, and suddenly his eyes flashed.
But at the same time, an even bigger question popped up in his head: how was he going to convince Rudolf to sign the agreement?
David was sure Rudolf Allheaven wouldn't just randomly sign a loan agreement because he said so. Anyways, David decided to wait for a perfect chance to try his luck.
After some time, Rudolf Allheaven started to explain the workings behind the technique. They had to follow the instructions given in the technique and form an Ancient Drago-Spider in their Sea of Consciousness.
At this time, Rudolf suddenly dropped a bomb that made Sebastian question his ears if they were working properly.
"With the help of the Ancient Drago-Spider, you can stabilize your Spiritual Space." Rudolf Allheaven calmly spoke as if it was no big deal.
This was too good to be true. Sebastian had never heard about such a thing in his long life. But after some time, he calmly accepted it. If he hadn't heard about it, it didn't mean that it couldn't exist.
Mary, on the other hand, just nodded her head as if she knew about it beforehand.
Allen Rushmore nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice, his face filled with a fascinated expression. He couldn't believe his ancestor was such a powerful person.
After some time, David's chance finally arrived.
"Senior, I would like to make a request," David said slowly while looking at Rudolf Allheaven's reaction.
"Yeah, what do you want?" Rudolf Allheaven gently smiled at his words.
"Can you sign this loan agreement?" David said with an innocent smile on his face. He gently handed the agreement to Rudolf, who merely glanced at it and signed without thinking much about it.
It was merely a one million spirit stones loan. Although the interest was a bit high, that was it. Truly an ant's worries had no place in the elephant's eyes.
David was on cloud nine once Rudolf signed the agreement. Now he just had to wait for him to die once and for all.
"These are the two things that I had prepared for my disciple." After signing the agreement, a jade box appeared in Rudolf's hand, and he calmly handed it to David. "Here, take this. You can open it once you are outside."
David wanted to resist; after all, it was too good to be true. But in the next moment, he felt a force wrapping around him that didn't let him resist. In the end, he just calmly accepted and placed them inside his storage ring.
On the other hand, Allen looked at this scene with a dark expression on his face, but he did not dare show it in front of Rudolf.
Time continued to flow like water, and soon it was the fourth day since David arrived in this spiritual space. In these four days, David and the other two had managed to cultivate the Ancient Drago-Spider Diagram to its first level, leaving only Allen Rushmore behind.
The first stage of the Ancient Drago-Spider Diagram, called Ancient Web of Mindfulness, the web extended roughly 50 meters around the practitioners, creatibg a long invisible web around the cultivator, helping them understand the minute changes in their surroundings.
At this time, the four of them were standing in front of Rudolf, listening to his words with serious expressions on their faces.
"My work here is finished. Now it's time for me to leave. You should leave this place as well."
His face was serene as a lake without any fluctuations when he said those words.
"I have set up everything, and the teleportation formation will send you out of this place in five minutes."
In the next moment, Rudolf's body collapsed into particles of white light and disappeared.
David didn't know why, but the last words of Rudolf had made him feel uneasy. He had a feeling that something was amiss; he just couldn't point his finger at it. And judging by the appearance of his two companions, they also thought the same.
However, David didn't have the time to ponder it further. In the next moment, the ground beneath them lit up, and the four of them disappeared.
