"Viktor, I don't see any reason for us to stay in this small world any longer." A man with a youthful appearance uttered as he sighed, his eyes revealing a fatigued glint, "I'm feeling rather nostalgic."

"Right, I'm feeling nostalgic as well."

Another youth who had the same facial and body features as the previous youth replied.

Except, the man who first spoke wore purple robes compared to the man who spoke later, who was wearing blue robes.

Both of them were draped in royal clothes like they were some princes of an Empire.

"We might have to search for another spatial tunnel..." The blue-robe youth, Viktor spoke in an anxious voice.

The purple-robe youth laughed as a playful smile flashed appeared on his lips, "It's fine! The reason why I told you that we should no longer stay in this small world was because I found a few thousand spirit stones on the frozen side of this celestial body."

"Are you serious? Jonas!?" Viktor widened his eyes in shock.

Jonas nodded his head smilingly and raised his brows, "Well, if you actually stopped playing with your woman, we would've found these spirit stones sooner!"

"You!" Viktor raised his hands to pound Jonas once but dropped it down once he saw his twin brother questioningly smile.

"Don't tell me you plan on bringing her back home? Royal Father won't accept her..."

"Regardless, Royal Father will have to accept her because I've probably become equal to him in cultivation in these twenty years."

"Are you not interested in the throne?"

"Screw that! After living here, I recognize how stupid it is for me to sit there as I stupidly command my subjects."

Jonas laughed as he heard something funny, "If Royal Father were to hear it, I'm sure he would send you to the prison for mocking him."

"What about you?"

"It's a drag, I'm not going to do it even if I'm nominated. Besides, the throne belongs to our first brother by right. I don't think I should go out of my way to take it from him." Jonas shrugged.

Viktor ignored his words and waved his hands as a slim rectangular-shaped box appeared in his hand.

He fiddled with it using his fingers for a minute and looked at it as if he was waiting for something.

Jonas's eyes shone as he spoke, "You're sending a message to her with that thing called a mobile phone?"

Viktor raised his brows, "Are you bothered by it?"

"No, I just thought that these mortals are pretty smart to create an object such as this with just their intellect. At least, we didn't have or at least heard about this in the history of the Grand Sea Continent."

"It's called science and it is their own way of verifying the truths of the world," Viktor spoke as he shook his head.

"That woman you liked, if I remember correctly, I think she was called a scientist or something?"

Viktor facepalmed, "You never come out other than trying to search for mysterious treasures, staying inside while cultivating to the best of your ability, trying to catch up to me..."

As if being stepped upon his Achilles' heel, Jonas roared back, "Who told you to be talented than me? Even though we are twins, how come you are talented than me?"

Viktor stepped back as he shook his hands, "I didn't mean that. What I meant was that you are so caught up in trying to catch up to my cultivation that you missed out on your youthful period."

"Besides, there are so many things to learn about in this small world. Like this mobile phone which can allow you to communicate through something known as radio waves which are similar to how we communicate using Soul Transmission."

Jonas lifted up his eyebrows, his mouth curved up and his facial expression turned into one of disdain, "See, they already took the first step wrongly. Instead of increasing their own power, they rely on objects called devices..."

Viktor sighed again, "You misunderstood. These devices are similar to the formations that we use. While they still don't know how to cultivate, there are plenty of experts who have reached the First Stage here..."

"Is that true!? I thought cultivation didn't exist in this small world but only as a fantasy!?"

"As I said, you are behind the times, and even information. Even though the heaven and earth energy here is so thin that it is practically non-existent, there are still a few hundred who have managed to cultivate to the First Stage from being a mortal in this decade." Viktor said as he shook his head, however, he didn't say about why there were suddenly First Stage Cultivators popping out in the world.

Jonas's facial expression changed and the way he looked at this small world experienced a little change.

"Fine, I admit that they have their own way of finding the truths but to achieve anything of significance with this thing called science... Impossible!"

Viktor rubbed his chin as he pondered, "You might be right..."

"So, when are we leaving?" Jonas asked but before Viktor could reply, he continued, "If that woman of yours is going to delay for a week, then I'm going back by myself."

Viktor frowned but just before he could reply, the mobile in his hands sounded as it vibrated. His face blossomed into a smile and his expectant eyes gazed at the mobile.

He touched the phone and slid his fingers, and a projection was released, lighting up the empty s.p.a.ce above the mobile phone.

The light gradually transformed into a human-shaped female figure wearing a white lab coat.

It was a young woman, her face looked slightly v-shaped with two pairs of small eyes, a sharp nose, and rosy lips.

The woman's restless gaze fell towards Viktor and her cheeks reddened like a tomato. She placed her pale white hands on her chest as she heaved and said, "About the message, is it true?"

"Yes, Meng Ying. I've found the necessary treasures required to travel back to my world." Viktor replied as he looked at the hologram while he pointed the bottom camera of the mobile towards him.

"Amazing!~" Meng Ying ecstatically screamed, however, she bit her lips as she asked, "Can I really come?"

Viktor smiled as he heard her doubtful tone, "Of course, you can. You know that I wouldn't dupe you, right?"

Meng Ying's expression changed, "I know you wouldn't but I am an orphan and essentially a captive in another perspective. However, you helped and freed me through legal means, so I know that they wouldn't make a fuss..."

Viktor heartily laughed, "Good! Those fellows know not to target you since I've given them some benefits for your sake!"

Meng Ying nodded as she smiled heartily, "Hmm... I'll follow you then..."

"I'll see you in two days, be prepared!" Viktor added in a confident tone.

Meng Ying nodded her head and she moved her hands towards him.

The communication shut off and the vivid mountains behind came into his view. He took a deep breath and said, "We'll go back in the three days!"

Jonas chimed in, "Sure!"

However, he was slightly confused.

Benefits? What benefits?

He knew that his twin brother already gave some benefits to these indigenous people for securing the place they appeared from, but from the looks of it...

"Did you give them some benefits again?"

Viktor froze, however, he slightly nodded his head.

"For that woman?"

Jonas narrowed his eyes, "You're simply wasting resources when you can just enslave them."

Viktor looked as if he was going to say something, however, he closed his mouth.

"You're really pa.s.sive after coming to this place, aren't you, Viktor?"

"I only gave them some pills required to reach the First Stage. In any case, it was rotting in my spatial ring, so I just thought why not exchange these for her freedom."

"Oh..." Jonas promptly shut up once he heard that. He had thought his twin brother was squandering spirit stones on a mortal woman but it seems like the Viktor gave away items which if kept beside him, he wouldn't even bother to look at it out of disdain.

======

More than half a month later.

In Davis's room.

Davis sat on the bed while he circulated the Fourth Layer of the Extinction Lightning Judgement through his meridians.

The energy in his black sparkling revolving core, his dantian, and his meridians had grown capable of absorbing and storing energy to a tremendous degree.

He had just finished his breakthrough into the Peak-Level Body Transformation Stage. He dual cultivated with Evelynn, opting to increase his Essence Gathering Cultivation in a slow but steady pace.

In truth, he could've cultivated to the peak as soon as he entered the Body Transformation Stage but to have a stable foundation, he knew that one must not be hasty.

That's why he had put a lot of effort and time into building a good foundation, even pondering on the energy circulation method so that he could see through the intricacies of the lightning laws.

Although he had already achieved the elementary level in lightning laws, he still wanted to to see if he could improve on it, but the more the tried to improve, the more he realized that without reaching the Law Seed Stage, it was quite impossible to reach the First Level Intent in Lightning Laws.

Davis who thought that he could ignore the limitations of the cultivation stages in his dreams was quite b.u.mmed out.

One of his fantasies that stemmed from reading level skipping novels were dashed just like that. The saying that reality was often disappointing certainly applied to him now as he could feel it welling up within his throat in the form of a swear.

Taking a deep breath to calm himself, he once again circulated the Fourth Layer of the Extinction Lightning Judgement.

As the energy circulated all around the meridians to his revolving core, he started to stabilize his breakthrough.

Now, he was only a step away from Law Seed Stage which he would try to do a reach in a year or so.

But before acting on that in a year, he promptly decided to have a breakthrough in his Body Tempering Cultivation System so that he could enter the Sixth Stage half a year later from now.

As he thought of this, he gathered his thoughts on the Revolving Core which showed not much variation from the time it was actually formed.

He had thought that it would be a heaven-defying opportunity but who would've known that it was pretty much useless other than providing him some huge amount of energy storage capacity and attunement towards lightning.

'Maybe I underestimated its growth potential or it's truly just a little better than a first grade Revolving Core...' Davis thought as he opened his eyes.

He stopped circulating and planned on collecting the souls of some Fifth Stage Magical Beasts in the Grand Sea to make Fallen Heaven shut up its yapping non-existent mouth.

It had been complaining to him that it was not getting enough feasts lately and pestered him to get it some high-quality souls.

To this, Davis could only sigh and try to hunt some Fifth Stage Magical Beasts to placate it.

Besides, he had also wanted to provide his family members with Grand Beast Stage Meat so that they can improve faster, even promoting their Body Tempering Cultivation to some degree.

The gut in human cultivators could completely digest a magical beast meat corresponding to one stage lower of their cultivation.

This was also the reason why human cultivators had not stopped eating even though they don't need food to live their lives as long as they can rely on energy.

Human Cultivators only ate food to taste and increase their prowess, not to survive like mortals.

'I'll inform Evelynn before I go...' Davis casually thought and stepped outside the room.

Suddenly, he sensed two powerful figures rapidly flying in his direction, no, to be precise, in the Royal Castle's direction.

The only reason he could notice this without even using his Soul Sense was because of the two powerful figures, who dashed through the skies while not even bothering to suppress their cultivation, even going so far as to swagger off their undulations as they flew towards the Royal Castle.
