Forsaken Immortals

Chapter 309: The Second Layer



Chapter 309: The Second Layer

"Mom, the second floor of the pagoda has been unlocked. Do you want to take a look?" Xiao Bao\'s voice made the rest of the group silent for a few moments as they began to digest the words he had said, after which they all erupted in excitement.

"You said that there are more floors within this world? How many are they? Do they look differently?" Xiao Jin was a revered armament spirit, but she had not been freely moving around in the Primal Chaos Dimension before, as she was not contracted to any master, and thus her spirit had been dormant within the cauldron itself.

"There are nine layers of the dimension, and each layer is different from the previous. They represent the nine floors of the pagoda, and each place has its own benefits.

"This first layer is the most ordinary and although it is beneficial for planting herbs and increasing the speed of the plants growth, it is not all that useful for other reasons.

"Mom has already become a decent alchemist with the help of you, so while this layer keeps bringing some benefits to her, she will also be able to move on to other professions as the higher floors unlock."

It would, on most occasions, be very difficult to make Xiao Bao explain such things in details, but after realizing that Bai Rouyun was the reincarnation of his creator, he had fully accepted her as his mother and thus the other odd followers were now his siblings. Even if he was cold towards strangers, he had to be kind to his younger siblings, since he was clearly the oldest brother.

His words were very straightforward, and even the calm Xiao Mao showed an intrigued curiosity towards the next layer of the dimension.

"How do we enter the next layer then?" Xiao Jin was the most outspoken of the group, and although both Jiaojiao, Xiao Hua, and Xiao Mao were as excited, none of them rushed to ask. Xiao Hua was innately afraid of her oldest brother, while Xiao Mao was more careful. Jiaojiao was too new to the whole group and she felt too shy to ask such questions.

"I will have to transfer us to the upper floor. As the spirit of the Primal Chaos Pagoda, I am the one who controls the entire dimension, and to protect it against intruders, I have to manually move anyone to the upper levels. As I said before, this layer is the most basic of them all, and to protect the treasures above, it was made so it cannot be entered easily."

Bai Rouyun was also eager to see the upper layers of the dimension, as she had no idea what she could expect. The first layer was already a whole world in itself. It had a blue sky above and even a constant sun like source to shine a light on the fields.

However, after Xiao Bao had taken her to the ice cave somewhere beneath the Pagoda\'s nine layers, she had understood that perhaps each layer of the realm was an independant world with different environments. She was also eager to see what the environment of the next floor would be like.

Seeing that they all were excited, Xiao Bao was feeling rather complacent as he waved his hand, and the surroundings twisted and warped. For a moment, they all felt their bodies lose contact with the ground, before they once more found themselves standing firmly in a new location.

Unlike the first layer where there had been a big blue sky above their heads, they now found themselves inside a massive mine. The mine seemed to be endless as many paths had been excavated already, but the stone walls were full of gems and ores of any kind that could be dreamt about.

Such extreme wealth was very different from the first layer, as it could only grow the seeds that were taken in from the outside realm. Although it had the spiritual water to assist healing, it was not like this layer where the resources were clearly present, and the owner simply had to pick them out from the wall.

"This... You might have just found the solution to how you can keep feeding your increasingly big family." Xiao Mao was slowly losing his cool attitude and personality as he spent time alongside Bai Rouyun. Although the shock needed to make him react had to be quite overwhelming, it turned out that this weird family was expertised at providing him with one unbelievable experience after another.

"True. I am sure that you will have more siblings later on, and as our family grows larger, I do have to work harder. Even if my decision of adopting you all might seem rather careless, I understand more than anyone that when a decision like this has been made, it is a decision that has to stick for life. I will never leave you alone or let you down, so I have to keep increasing my own strength, but also somehow gain enough resources to aid your progress."

Bai Rouyun could not help but narrow her eyes as she looked at the numerous gems and ores that were displayed in front of her. Although she had focused too much on wealth in her previous life, she knew that having children was not cheap, and since she had already adopted this many, she had to become a rich lady to provide for them all.

Looking at her adorable children, she quickly dismissed her thought of making them mine these ores on her behalf. Even if she knew that they would not suffer from doing so, her conscience could never stay clear if she asked her children to mine for her so that she could become wealthy.
