My crazy Cultivation Path

CHAPTER 158- only after I kill that bastard

Two weeks later.

Hikiri and Aconé were learning to diversify their use of aether.

Iloy, Asti, and Dirios had joined them to train.

Tony found himself training while also teaching the others a few things.

But it didn’t really bother him. It allowed him to learn more about the others’ affinity cards.

Besides, the three of them were about the same age, around sixteen.

And although it didn’t surprise Tony, all three had managed to reach rank six at the same time.

— So, how does it feel to tell yourselves that you’re going to live for more than two hundred years now?

Tony asked them.

— Honestly, I’ll think about it only after I kill that bastard,

Dirios declared.

— Hoho… you’ve got goals. That’s good, but think bigger,

Tony said.

— What do you mean by that?

Dirios asked.

— Well, if you succeed in killing him, you’ll only enjoy that joy temporarily. So think about what you want to do after him, what you want to become, or where you want to go,

Tony explained.

— But how much lifespan do we gain at each rank?

Asti asked.

— First, rank six gives two hundred years.

Then rank seven gives three hundred years.

Rank eight gives four hundred years.

And finally, rank nine gives five hundred years,

Tony answered.

— So if we reach rank nine, we’ll get one thousand four hundred extra years of life!

Iloy said excitedly.

— Don’t get too excited. Who says you’ll still be alive?

Tony declared.

Yet that didn’t chill Iloy at all. He pointed at Tony.

— You’ll see. I’ll reach them.

— So, are we here to talk or to train?

Asti said in a fairly loud tone.

— He’s right. I’ve got other problems too, especially one urgent issue I need to deal with,

Tony added.

— Yeah, yeah, fine, we can start,

Iloy said.

Tony explained that they would start by awakening their aether core before moving on to anything else.

— There you go. You just have to do what I told you, and normally it should work. Anyway, you can feel aether, but not the flow yet, and you can’t see it,

Tony added.

— And how long is it going to take us?

Dirios asked.

— No idea. Hikiri and Aconé succeeded in a month. For me, I think it took an hour… but don’t think I enjoyed it. Because if you look at it another way, it’s thanks to what happened in my consciousness,

Tony said.

Without realizing it, a hint of anger began to appear on his face.

— Are you okay?

Asti asked.

That brought Tony back to himself.

— Yeah… Let’s just say I also have someone I want to kill… but for now, compared to him, I’m probably nothing more than an ant. But that’s fine. When someone is too far above you, it’s better to put them aside and focus on your own rise and your current enemies. And then, when I finally stand at his level, I’ll do everything I can to kill him……

A clap of hands.

— But for now, start training,

Tony said as he walked away from them.

He stopped in front of Aconé, who was training his precision and reflexes.

What a madman.

He had created a kind of small fire foxes boosted with aether, which attacked him in the most vicious ways possible.

And all of that while being the very source of the flames and the aether himself.

Turning his head toward Hikiri, who was combining water and wind to create techniques…

Tony sat down cross-legged and began to cultivate.
