Heavenly Dao Child 248 Volunteering for Job

Ryuu opened his eyes it had been sometime since he had begun meditating inside the 'Imperial Spirit Lake', a special lake that takes over 50,000 years to form, a lake created by high concentration of KI, something like that would have been a wet dream for any cultivators but unfortunately it is highly toxic to the point it can kill cultivator if they so much take a dip in it, but there are certain exceptions to the rule like him for example his divine body made it possible for him to absorb the KI from the pond.

The same lake well more like a large pond since it was within a hundred meter at its widest portion, which looked to be created from milk itself now looked like normal water, he had absorbed everything, as he swam out of the lake he found his sisters guarding him, as he neared them Antariskh threw a towel at him with which Ryuu dried himself off before wearing his clothes, rings, bracelets.

Anatriksh: "So how do you feel Ryuu?"

Ryuu: "I feel better than fine big sister I was stuck at 3rd level of Immortal realm for the last 3 years this place enabled me to break into the 4th level.", he frowned as he spoke, "but I can do without my skin being so soft."

Shamiran snorted at that as she spoke, "Well it might have gotten soft to the point it is like a baby's skin because of the lake but it will be many times more tougher than before, on top of that there are many other interesting and quite nice gains you have received but I want to figure them out yourselves, oh and Ryuu don't you take a seat it has been 4 days and yet the blizzard is still raging outside we will leave later one when it comes down."

Ryuu frowned at that as he spoke, "But could you not teleport out of here."

Sylvana smiled and replied, "Of course we could but where is the fun in that, also we took the trouble of clearing out the entire cave and it would be such a waste if we do not spend some time here."

Ryuu shrugged as he took a seat near Sylvana as he was handed a cup of hot chocolate, as he took the cup Antariksh spoke, "Oh brother I think, you should wear your warm clothes as the lake has gone, the only source heat that kept the cave warm from the terrible cold outside is gone and soon the temperature here would plummet and scoot close to the fire."

Ryuu nodded at that as he wore his warmer clothing, Shamiran spoke, "This situation reminds of the time when we were exploring 'Eden'."

Antariskh nodded as she spoke, "Yes it does, we were stuck in a cave similar to this for 2 years, that ice biome was so horrible and dangerous just thinking about it gives me the chills."

Sylvana sighed at that as she spoke, "Yes not only that it was also the last level we could venture in before we were forced to leave."

Ryuu was now curious at that, since he had learned of the 'Eden' he was curious about it, well more like a certain person by the name of Zywia managed to make him curious enough that he would love to explore the place and the only thing stopping him is that he has to reach at least Peak Mystic Immortal Level within 60 Years time, but with the current rate of cultivation it was a very farfetched dream.

Seeing his dejected look, Antariskh could not help but ask him as a frown marred her beautiful face, "Why do you look so dejected Ryuu, please tell us we will help you."

Ryuu gave a sigh as he spoke, "It is nothing big sister, just that I wanted to explore the 'Eden', Sister Zywia is planning to but my strength is insufficient and I would nowhere be ready at my current rate within the time span of 60 years, I wish my cultivation would be faster."

The Trio's eyes twitched at that as Sylvana spoke, "Ryuu your speed in cultivation is already otherworldly there is nothing more you can do about it."

Ryuu nodded at that as he spoke, "Well still it would have been cool if I managed to reach the goal."

Shamiran sighed as she spoke, "Ryuu you have to be patient and persistent after all cultivation is not for someone lethargic or agitated more importantly the higher you move the slower your speed of cultivation would become, let us take your mother for example, she was 1st rank Golden Immortal, but her age was already way past 10,000 years, even Zywia is already over a hundred thousand years old, I hope you can understand where we are going."

Ryuu nodded as he spoke, "Of course but is there no way to increase your cultivation fast."

Sylvana sighed as she spoke, "Well there are a few ways, most of them are double edged sword as they are more about gaining short term benefit by sacrificing your future, but amongst them the safest one is by getting enlightenment on some Doa, let say some Grand Dao where you gained enough enlightenment that you reached Master level from the novice level you might be able to increase you level drastically many people have managed to do as such and thus managed to increase their level fast."

Ryuu sighed as he spoke, "Well they are lucky, I have gain enlightenment in a few DAOs but nowhere near enough, I am so unlucky."

Anatriskh who was drinking from her cup, sprayed it out from her mouth as other looked at her in disbelief, as Shamiran spoke, "Ryuu so how many Dao you know?"

Ryuu scratched his chin as he spoke, "Well I am currently a Grandmaster level in Sword, Fire and Array, Master level at Alchemy, Water, Wind, ice and Lightning, Expert Level at Archery and last but not the least Apprentice Level at Asura, but why are you asking something like this sister."

By now Ryuu's sisters eyes twitched violently as Sylvana shouted out at him, "You colossal Idiot, you have gained enlightenment in some many Daos and let us not state about their mastery on the subject even some Dao Fathers would be jealous of you Ryuu.", while inwardly it was a different matter, 'A Dao father may not know as many Dao as Ryuu but when it comes mastery they will easily surpass Ryuu."

Ryuu soaked every word like a sponged as Sylvana kept on speaking, "Well Ryuu instead of trying to gain more enlightenment, I belief you should nurture all those Dao you have received enlightenment on but in some cases under the watchful eyes making them much better than before."

Ryuu once again nodded at that as he thought, 'Nowadays I am nodding so much so that I already feel like those bobble head.'

Antariskh then gave a small clap bringing everyone's attention to her as she spoke, "Well Ryuu since you are already eighteen I would love if you would do me a favor."

Ryuu already had a dread and cold feeling crawling up his spine as he spoke with a gulp, "What kind of favor sister?"

Antariskh gave a happy smile as she spoke, "Excellent as expected of my beloved brother so eager to help me, will since you are so adamant on helping me I simply want you too to visit a place for inspection nothing more nothing less. Well since you are in such a hurry you may leave as soon as we leave this place."

Meanwhile Ryuu was left dumbfounded, 'Since when did I volunteer to help her, I simply wished to want to know what favor she was asking for.', all the more as he received a pat or two from his other sisters for willing to help his big sister, Ryuu could not help but curl up into a ball and cry at the injustice meted out to him.
