Chapter 789 Dustfire Valley

 

The contents of the contract in front of Greem shocked him.

This…how could this be possible?

However, after some quick thinking, he realized that there wasn’t anything odd about the feasibility of a contract like this.

After all, the bodies of most adepts had become indistinguishable with those of magical creatures during their process of improvement.

However, adepts were the cultural cornerstones of the great World of Adepts. They were always the ones enslaving all sorts of magical creatures. There had never been a case of an adept being contracted to a magical creature.

What was this flaming tiger trying to do?

It was a common problem with all elementium creatures!

They lacked any concept of time in their minds. They were always slow at doing things and didn’t care about the passage of time. That was why trying to threaten the Third Grade flaming tiger with time was not an option. Cindral couldn’t care less if he were to arrive in the World of Adepts tomorrow, or next year.

Time was practically static in an elementium plane!

Of course, all of this had much to do with the long lifespans of the elementium creatures.

Greem tried everything he could think of, but he still failed to locate the flaming tiger. With no choice left to him, Greem could only begin his journey once again and run straight toward the den of Second Grade Fire Lord Artes.

Dustfire Valley.

 

It was a desolate land filled with dust and fire.

A massive valley ran across a vast plain. The interior of the valley was dark and dim, covered with dusty air and flame pillars that occasionally blasted out of the cracks in the walls. There was no chance of seeing what the inside of the valley was like from the outside.

There was an ancient city deep in Dustfire Valley, with typically one or two hundred thousand citizens in it. They were all intelligent lifeforms with minds of their own. The civilians here might be a bit more honest and violent than humans, with none of their slyness. However, there were enough to make up a complete, though primitive, city.

Greem immediately started to run into more fire creatures once he entered the edges of Dustfire Valley.

After all this time, Greem had mastered the technique of disguising himself as a fire creature.

Firstly, the fire spirit he disguised himself as couldn’t be too small.

Though high-grade fire creatures didn’t assess power based on size, low-grade fire creatures still did. The larger you were, the more powerful the fire energy in your body. As long as the fire spirit that Greem hid as was sufficiently large, the low-grade beings would flee at the sight of him. They would never dare to harass him or look for trouble.

Secondly, he couldn’t be too active.

The Fire Elementium Plane was a dull and boring place. All the fire creatures here moved with a slow rhythm and spent their days wandering idly through different regions.

It wasn’t until they developed a mind of their own in their fire core that they could break free of their chaotic primal state and awaken the consciousness of their individuality.

This fact was reflected in the personalities and appearances of most fire creatures. That was to say– incomparably dull and slow!

Even intelligent individuals with a mind were several levels behind humans when it came to the activity of their soul and the clever use of their intellect.

Thus, Greem turned himself into a five-meter-tall fire spirit with a stiff, emotionless face and slowly walked past the two Molten Giants guarding the entrance of the valley. The giants only glanced at him before looking elsewhere.
