New Age Of Summoners

A High-grade Elemental Source Land was an extremely special natural zone usually formed deep within the Dark Region.

Such places were not created from dark essence alone.

Instead, they were born after the pure Spirit Essence left behind from the deaths of countless powerful cultivators, spirit beasts, and other beings accumulated for thousands or even millions of years.

After all, the deeper regions of the Dark Region were filled with endless battles and slaughter.

Every day, countless experts die there.

When powerful beings died, the pure elemental essence within their bodies wouldn’t completely disappear.

Instead, parts of it would slowly merge into the surrounding environment over long periods of time.

Eventually, after accumulating enough pure elemental essence of specific elements, an Elemental Source Land would naturally be born.

The stronger the dead cultivators and beasts, the higher the grade of the Elemental Source Land formed.

’It is not my first time exploring the High-grade Elemental Source Lands, but....’

During the past year, Ajax had already explored multiple High-grade Elemental Source Lands together with Aron and Siora.

However, all of them were located deep inside the Dark Region, where powerful beings frequently fought and died.

Thus, Ajax was naturally surprised to discover one near the outer border of the Dark Region.

’Strange…’

Ajax slightly frowned, ’How could a High-grade Elemental Source Land form at the border of the Dark Region?’

Normally, very few powerful cultivators or Dark Beasts appeared near the border regions.

Most experts preferred exploring the deeper parts of the Dark Region because that was where the true treasures existed.

Moreover, at the border, a lot of activity happened as even low-level Emperor Realm Cultivators would explore the Dark Region.

Thus, under normal circumstances, it was almost impossible for enough pure Spirit Essence to accumulate here and form a High-grade Elemental Source Land.

’It is strange.’

Ajax’s eyes slightly narrowed at that thought.

Nevertheless, regardless of how it formed, one thing was certain.

If a High-grade Elemental Source Land truly existed, then the treasures inside it would definitely not be ordinary.

Sometimes, one could even discover Wild Sentient Flames inside such places.

’I hope I find another Sentient Flame.’

Ajax’s eyes instantly lit up with interest.

Other than the Sentient Flame: Specterfire, Ajax had found and tamed two more Wild Sentient Flames during his Dark Region Exploration in the past.

Even though all his Elemental Spirits had already evolved into Divine Elemental Spirits and were currently sealed by the universe, Sentient Flames were still priceless treasures.

After all, Sentient Flames themselves possessed terrifying power.

Moreover, once Ajax ascended to the Heavenly Realm and unsealed his Divine Elemental Spirits, those Sentient Flames would become incredibly powerful weapons for them.

Thus, no matter how Ajax looked at it, Sentient Flames were treasures he definitely couldn’t ignore.

’Looks like my luck isn’t completely terrible after all.’

After coming to this new universe, this was the first good thing that happened to him, making Ajax’s earlier depressed mood instantly improve.

’System, show me the location.’

[Swiish]

Soon, a small map appeared before Ajax with a glowing red dot flashing somewhere far away in the endless dark void.

’It’s not too far.’

Without any hesitation, Ajax directly changed directions and flew toward the location shown on the map at full speed.

At the same time, anticipation slowly appeared in his eyes.

Soon, after travelling for nearly half a day through the endless dark void, Ajax finally sensed a large concentration of auras ahead of him.

’Hmm?’

His eyes slightly narrowed.

Normally, the outer border regions of the Dark Region were relatively deserted.

However, at this moment, there were tens of thousands of auras gathered in a single location.

Some were weak, while some were incredibly powerful.

There were even multiple High-level Emperor Realm experts among them.

’Looks like the news about the High-grade Elemental Source Land has already spread.’

Ajax wasn’t surprised.

After all, High-grade Elemental Source Lands were treasures capable of attracting even Quasi-Divine Realm experts.

’Swiish’

Soon, Ajax slowed down and concealed a part of his strength and displayed only a low-level Emperor Realm cultivation before approaching the gathering.

Actually, he wanted to conceal his cultivation even more; however, there were many youngsters around his age with the cultivation of a low-level Emperor Realm. So, he believed he wouldn’t be the odd one out here.

Very quickly, a massive floating landmass appeared before his eyes.

The floating landmass itself was surrounded by colourful elemental storms.

Fire.

Water.

Wind.

Lightning.

Darkness.

Light.

Different elemental energies intertwined with one another, creating an astonishing scene.

At the center of the floating landmass was a gigantic crack in space.

From within the crack, pure elemental essence continuously leaked out into the surroundings.

Clearly, the High-grade Elemental Source Land hadn’t fully opened yet.

’So, the reason the system and other cultivators were able to sense it was because of this leaking pure elemental essence.’

Even though the system was a powerful divine artifact, it was not omniscient.

If not for the leaking pure elemental essence, everyone would have thought it was another one of those floating debris from a destroyed world.

Around the floating landmass, countless cultivators gathered in groups.

Those who were from rich and powerful factions stood on flying artifacts while the loose cultivators and the cultivators from weaker families quietly floated in space.

’It’s not just the humans that gathered here.’

Ajax also noticed many re-cultivated Spirit Beasts among them.

Although they looked no different from humans’ appearance-wise, traces of bestial aura still leaked from their bodies.

Some had sharp golden pupils, while some emitted savage beast pressure.

Others even had strange scales or beast markings on parts of their skin.

’Looks like the exploration of this High-grade Elemental Source Land is not going to be easy.’

With so many powerful beings gathered here, Ajax knew it would not be easy to collect the treasures from the Elemental Source Land.

Nevertheless, Ajax was not at all worried as he silently observed the surroundings.

Among the gathered experts, low-level Emperor Realm Cultivators were everywhere.

Even Mid-level Emperor Realm experts were not uncommon.

As for High-level Emperor Realm Cultivators, although fewer in number, there were still dozens of them.

Soon, Ajax casually approached a nearby group of cultivators and quietly listened to their conversation.

”The Source Land appeared very suddenly.”

”Yes. I heard it only appeared around a week ago.”

.

.

.

Even though Ajax was a bit away from them, thanks to his senses boosted by the Divine Spirit Consciousness, he could listen to them clearly.

Hearing their discussion, Ajax slightly raised his brows.

’Appeared around a week ago?’

A strange expression appeared on his face.

’Isn’t that around the same time I got teleported into this universe?’

For a brief moment, Ajax couldn’t help but think whether his arrival somehow triggered the appearance of this High-grade Elemental Source Land.

However, he quickly shook his head.

’Looks like I am overthinking things.’

How could his random teleportation possibly be related to the appearance of a High-grade Elemental Source Land?

Thus, Ajax soon dismissed the strange thought from his mind.

Instead, he focused on the youngsters’ conversations.

”Even now, many powers are still rushing toward this place.”

”They say the gates will fully open in another three days.”

.

.

.

’Opening in three days?’

Ajax noted down the important information; however, he soon received another important piece of information.

”Apparently, someone already sensed the aura of a Wild Sentient Flame from inside.”

’There is a Wild Sentient Flame? I have to get it.’

Ajax swore with determination as he looked forward to the opening of the Elemental Source Land.
