Life After Prison

Severin’s gazed intently at the shield when Oskar extended a hand and drew the shield to his grip from the wall. Oskar then gave Severin a rundown of the shield. “This is crafted from meteorite gold blended with rich earth essence and further refined with fine alloys. Its quality places it among the best, and its defensive capabilities are incredibly formidable too.”

Severin was intrigued and reached out to take the shield. He then channeled his divine senses lightly across the shield, verifying for himself the claims Oskar made about its outstanding quality.

As far as Severin knew, defensive spiritual treasures were rather than their offensive counterparts. The arduous process of refining them contributed to their scarcity, making them more valuable and sought after.

“This is impressive,” Severin remarked and nodded in satisfaction as he scrutinized the shield.

Oskar smiled and elaborated, “While it may only be a superior- grade spiritual treasure, the dense earth defense shield it forms- when infused with the power of heaven and earth-would be difficult even for a level nine paragon to breach!”

“Thank you for your generosity,” Severin said, expressing his gratitude. “There is nothing I can do to repay your generosity, but I vow to strengthen the reputation of our sect in the Starry Sky Battlespace.” Severin gleefully stored the green shield into his spatial ring and immediately planned to familiarize himself with it upon his return to Pearl Light Isle.

Severin’s seemingly shameless behavior elicited a frown from Oskar as he retorted, “In case you’ve forgotten, the deal was for you to prepare two furnaces of seventh-grade Breakthrough Pills!”This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

Severin nodded sheepishly and at Oskar’s peeved expression.”

Sheesh, all right then Two furnaces it is. I didn’t think you’d be so stingy? I thought I could have it for free.”

“These are spiritual treasures, not potatoes!” Oskar grumbled as his glare intensified. “I only entertained your request because you’re our prodigy, and you genuinely need a replacement defensive spiritual treasure!”

Ordinarily, disciples would not be able to get replacement if their spiritual treasures were damaged. If they wanted a new one, they would have to provide spiritual stones or treasures of equivalent value. Oskar only made an exception due to Severin’s impending entry into the Starry Sky Battlespace.

Despite Oskar’s apparent displeasure, Severin grinned because he knew that it would have been impossible to obtain that treasure if Oskar did not view him in a favorable light. Fulfilling the request to prepare the pills was not overly challenging for him, and since he did not have to use his own stock of alchemical material, he could refine as many pills as he was asked to.

Once Severin stowed away the shield, Oskar said, “The Icicle Flame that you seek on the floor above. Come with me.”

Oskar led Severin to the sixth floor and they entered a space initially designated for elite-quality spiritual treasures. Though such treasures were scarce in Southsky, each major sect leader possessed one as a deterrent. The Grandiuno Sect was no different, and the weapon was under Oskar’s control.

There were no spiritual weapons on the sixth floor, but other treasures chained down by strong restrictions. Severin caught glimpses of divine gold infused with the scriptures of philosophy, celestial iron radiating the power of the stars, and life-extending fruits pulsated with pure vitality.

Situated in a secluded corner, Severin saw a cluster of blue flames ensnared by the restrictive formation. He could sense the extreme cold and intense heat emanating from the flame despite being within the confines of the restraints.
