Chapter 903 - Preparing
"Are you serious right now?"
While listening to everything intently, Elder Ben couldn't help but feel his mood hit rock-bottom in a matter of seconds.
It plummeted, and his smile turned into a stiff grimace that was a mix between horrified and stupefied.
Taking a deep breath, Elder Ben turned around and was ready to rush towards the City Lord, only to see two silhouettes standing in the doorframe.
One of the silhouettes belonged to Miles, whose hair were disheveled, taking deep breaths as if he had run a marathon.
Meanwhile, the young man standing next to Miles had a formidable presence.
He was the most powerful being inside the city, that was for sure!
It was the City Lord, whose broad physique, short brown hair, and hazel eyes were intently staring at everyone they brushed past.
His eyes swept through the hall/room and he gave Elder Ben a nod before settling on Jason, the City Lord looked first at Elder Ben before his gaze lingered on Jason.
"You are Jason, right? Miles said that you found him. Can you tell me what you sensed in the surrounding area where you found him?"
Remnants of energy fluctuations of a being would weaken tremendously over the course of time, and it had already been several hours since Jason had brought back Miles.

This was also the reason the City Lord had been on the lookout for Jason in order to prove the words of young Miles.
In the end, the City Lord didn't doubt them, but that didn't mean he believed everything Miles said.
After all, it was not implausible for the youth's memories to not be distorted owing to the shock he had undergone.
With that in mind, Jason was someone, who could serve as a witness, if one wouldn't start nit-picking.
He was their best shot.
Jason figured out the reasoning of the City Lord without too much difficulty.
As such, he nodded his head before sharing what he had perceived.
"To be honest, the Soul force fluctuations were already weak, so I might miss some factors.
In the end, there were just a few extremely crude soul force fluctuations lingering in the area.
But it was a little bit weird because they were quite strong, yet crude enough to decay.
As for the possible strength of the being radiating such fluctuations, I would place my bet on it either being at the Peak of the Ascendion stage or at the Specta stage.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64cc9e79c7059f003e4ad4b0", id: "pf-5109-1"})I'm not so sure about that because I haven't really seen many beings cultivating with Soul force, so I cannot precisely determine their cultivation base according to the deteriorating fluctuations."
Answering truthfully, he simply shared everything that was on his mind, and once Jason was done, the City Lord simply nodded his head before turning towards the Elder.
"Ben, come with me…We have lots of work to do. I have already called for an emergency meeting and the other Elders should arrive soon…the main branch was also informed about it!"
The main branch was not only the origin planet of the Yinar race, but it also included the biggest city inside the Ninad beast realm.
While their origin planet was huge, the most important place of the Yinar race was the realm Jason was currently in.
However, this was only plausible because the Yinar race procured most Soa crystals from the realm and an even higher quantity of naturally born wandering souls.
As such, they had to protect this place, and every single city their race inhabited, by all means possible.
Fortunately, the messengers of the other races had already left the city. Otherwise, they would have told their races about the issues the Yinar race was about to face.
This would have caused an even more chaotic situation than it already existed.
Despite the given complications of the situation, Jason couldn't do anything.
He was just too weak, and while intently listening to the possible strength of the Soul Monarch that was said to be at the Mid or Late rank of the Specta stage, he couldn't help but feel like a measly ant.
Realising this begrudgingly he ignored his earlier plan to focus on procuring more Soa crystals.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})Instead, Jason wanted to cultivate for a few weeks, while doing a session of practicing the Kanadi of a Primordial technique once a day.
This would enhance every single trait of Jason's entire being, and he proposed Jennifer to do exactly the same.
She was aware of the fact that she was much weaker than she initially thought, and after almost getting defeated by Lars, who was younger but at higher cultivation base, clearly showed that Jennifer was not all that special.
With that in mind and the obvious fact that Jason was bound to become much stronger than her, Jennifer could only give her utmost efforts, and follow him back to their room.
Initially, she had hoped to spend some quality time with him, but the timing was certainly among the worst possible.
As such, Jennifer took a deep breath, reminding herself that she and Jason were together and that she shouldn't feel so angsty about everything.
After returning to their room, they first cultivated before focusing on cultivating with the Kanadi of a Primordial technique.
The resources they were left with were not that many, but it was still more than enough to practice the technique a few times.
Nevertheless, Jason knew that he had to exchange a few items with cultivation resources.
However, that was just a waste of precious, and raw resources, which he had procured in order to start forging.
With that in mind, he and Jennifer used the Kanadi of a Primordial technique for two weeks, before their resources were completely used up, only for the two of them to use an increase of time in order to focus solely on cultivating.
Because of that, their strength increased after they cultivated for an entire month, while the news about the Soul monarch and his Guards closing in on the village had only increased.
Despite all of this, nobody had seen a single Guard except Miles, which was the only reassuring factor.
Somehow they believed that Miles was wrong and clung to the delusional hope of never seeing a Guard, let alone the Soul Monarch himself!
Yet, while the citizens were hoping for the best, Jason figured out that the Soul Monarch was just gathering his forces.
Jason couldn't tell why the Soul Monarch was not attacking directly because he was clearly at an advantage, in his opinion.
But, in the end, he felt quite fortunate that nobody had attacked them yet.
The defensive measurements put up by the Yinar race were also much better than Jason had expected. Multiple beings at the Late Specta stage had arrived out of the portal that led to one of the planets the Yinar race had conquered.
Right now, their city was just one small place, that led to one of the smallest planets the Yinar race had conquered, but that didn't really matter.
After all, every single portal that led towards the Ninad beast realm was precious.
This was even more so the case because the distance between the small and cozy city to the next Yinar race settlement was ginormous.
As such, there were many opportunities for the Yinar race to find new places, new sources of Soa crystals, and unique wandering souls to bind to their souls!
There were too many advantages the Yinar race received from the small city that was surrounded by the Agran messengers.
Thus, they wouldn't give up their place and home just like that.
In fact, Jason thought exactly the same because he believed that the small city of the Yinar race was perfect for him to find numerous items for the Agran bloodline's true soul awakening!
With that in mind, Jason prepared himself to merge his soul world core with his mana core in order to enter the Ascendion stage soon!
