Jacob from the Dark Realm Returns novel Chapter 116

"There is a seal at the entrance of the cave. Six cultivators of the Divinity Phase sent by the six forces created that seal together. Breaking that seal in a short period is difficult, even for a cultivator who has reached the Divinity Phase!"

Alan explained to Jacob.

Not only that, a defense force was around the spirit spring cave.

That force was made up of five hundred elite soldiers of the Marshal of the Triangle Region.

It was an elite team.

The team was armed with gunships, tanks, and many other weapons.

The Storm Mercenary Army was nothing to the team.

Jacob nodded. He discovered the seal the moment he arrived.

It was indeed not bad.

However, it was just not bad on earth. It was only an ordinary seal in the universe.

Even though his cultivation only reached the mid-stage Incarnation Phase, if he wanted, breaking this seal would only take him a little effort.

At midnight.

Alan and the others got the tokens of Sancho and Jeremy from their dead bodies. Then they gathered the six tokens to open the seal.

After the seal was opened, everyone entered.

Jacob did not lag behind. He took a step forward and stepped into the cave.

This cave spiraled downwards. Jacob and the others walked nearly a hundred meters from the ground before they reached the bottom.

And the bottom had already been exploited.

Because there was a spirit spring here, dense nourishing mana filled the cave. The entire cave was neither dark nor humid.

Instead, the cave was warm, making people think of spring. It was a blessed land.

All sorts of rare flowers and plants blossomed here. The cave was a heaven on Earth.

Not only that, Jacob saw that there were actually a large number of medicinal ingredients here. The entire cave was filled with the fragrance of medicinal herbs.

The cave would open once every six months for martial artists from the six forces to cultivate here for seven days. But it seemed that the cave was not sitting unused at other time.

Cultivating medicinal plants here was an amazing idea.

Not only did the herbs grow faster here, but they could be used as spirit medicine once they matured. And for the herbs, one day here was much better than many days outside.

The seal existed to prevent outsiders from trespassing on the spirit spring.

Also to keep the nourishing mana inside the cave.

The spirit spring in the cave was small. After half a year of accumulation, it was only half the size of a pond.

However, after seeing this, Alan and the others were extremely excited.

They immediately walked forward without any delay.

One person took one position, walking to the side of the spirit spring.

They sat down cross-legged, circulated their cultivation techniques, and began to absorb the liquid nourishing mana to cultivate.

Jacob also found a vacant direction and sat down cross-legged.

Instantly, all the pores on Jacob's body opened.

The liquid nourishing mana surrounded Jacob. It was continuously absorbed into Jacob's body from the pores of his body.

Then, all the nourishing mana headed towards the Chaos Pearl in his body.

The Chaos Pearl absorbed all the nourishing mana. Then, traces of power of chaos began to flow back into Jacob's body from the Chaos Pearl.

Jacob exhaled a sigh of relief.

The turbid air was exhaled. Jacob's eyes lit up.

Jacob felt relaxed.

This effect of a spirit spring was tens of times better than the Mana Collecting Matrix of the Shaw family.

Immediately, Jacob continued to cultivate seriously.

Jacob's cultivation caused a huge commotion and he had absorbed the spirit spring at an unusually fast speed, which awakened the others.

Their cultivating techniques were among the best on Earth. But they could only slowly absorb the spirit spring here.

They had to refine the spirit spring carefully.

Jacob didn't seem to be afraid of being overwhelmed by the nourishing mana at all.

How strong was his physique? How tyrannical was the cultivating technique he used?

Everyone couldn't help but feel a little shocked in their hearts. But then they thought this kind of state was at most temporary and wouldn't last for too long.

Everyone immediately withdrew their thoughts. They stopped paying attention to Jacob and continued to cultivate wholeheartedly.

At noon of the next day, everyone opened their eyes again.

They immediately found something was wrong.

It had only been twelve hours since they entered the cave.

But the spirit spring was about to be used up.

The remaining spirit spring almost reached the minimum threshold.

But the threshold would only be reached after six people cultivated here for seven days.

Once the amount of spirit spring reached the threshold, no one would be allowed to absorb the nourishing mana anymore.

If the spirit spring was used up, it would take half a year to recover. This was how it remained as an inexhaustible resource!

But what was going on now?

Everyone was shocked.

Then, they quickly locked onto the target.

The source of all this came from Jacob.

Jacob was absorbing the nourishing mana like a whale gulping down water.

Jacob took a breath.

He exhaled again.

Then he opened his eyes.

He sensed that the spirit spring was about to be used up, so he stopped.

After refining more than half of the spirit spring, Jacob's cultivation had completely stabilized. Now, he was in the mid-stage Incarnation Phase. There were even faint signs of advancing towards the late-stage Incarnation Phase.

For Jacob, getting to the later stages of cultivation meant improvement would be harder, which would mean more power of chaos, and even greater amount of nourishing mana.

Half a day here equaled to staying a month in the Shaw Mana Collecting Matrix.

"Heavens, he actually exhausted the spirit spring!"

Others' pupils shrank sharply. Apart from being shocked, they were fuming with rage.

Jacob robbed them of their shares.

Their cultivation had improved in just half a day. Their cultivation might increase a lot and they would be closer to the Divinity Phase if they could cultivate here for seven days.

"Mr. Reyes, this is... incredible..."

Alan also stuttered.

James, Clemon, Leo, and the late-comer Avada all looked at Jacob unkindly, "How could you do such a thing? This is way too inappropriate!"

"Since the spirit spring in the Triangle Region was opened, no one has ever deprived other people's shares. You have a lot of explanation to do today!"

They said in succession.

Even though Jacob had killed Jeremy and Sancho before, they were not afraid of him.

Jacob had offended everyone.

Alan was shocked. And his expression was also not very good.

"Ability decides everything. What explanation do you want?" Jacob sneered.

The path of cultivation disobeyed Heaven's will in nature.

There was no fairness in the cultivating world.

People didn't get opportunities by equally distributed shares, but by snatching and robbing.

"What kind of attitude is that? You don't belong to the six forces. You should be modest. How dare you be so arrogant?"

Avada was a late-comer. Although he knew that Jacob had killed Jeremy and Sancho, he didn't witness how frightful Jacob was when he attacked people. Moreover, they were at the Triangle Region, his territory. His eyes were filled with the most bloodlust. "Today, if you don't pay enough to make up for us, then don't blame us for being merciless!"

"A bunch of rowdies!"

Jacob shouted coldly.

Without any nonsense, he made a casual punch.

The seemingly light punch looked powerless.

However, Avada suddenly felt that death was just around the corner.

He immediately unleashed his Protective Force.

After that, he slapped out boundless aerial force one after another.

However, a fist imprint appeared in the air. Avada clapped his hands several times to release palms to resist Jacob's attack. But Avada didn't manage to stop Jacob's fist imprint.

In the end, the fist imprint directly smashed into Avada's Protective Force. His Protective Force that could resist the attack of a bullet instantly shattered like a mirror, turning into pieces and dissipating.

On the other hand, Jacob's fist print did not diminish in power, and it directly landed on Avada's chest.

Avada let out a wail.

And blood started to drip from the corner of his mouth.

Under this punch, his entire body flew backward and smashed onto the cave wall.

The entire cave trembled.

Avada was knocked away by a single punch!

And it looked like he was also seriously injured.

Even though others knew Jacob was powerful, they couldn't help but feel horrified when they saw this situation again. Jacob used a single punch to defeat a person of the same level with him!

After all, they had reached the Semi-Divinity Phase! They were not Virtuosos, and sure not anyone below that level!

They were only one step away from standing at the top of the world.

However, they couldn't even take a single move of Jacob.

Jacob had only entered the Semi-Divinity Phase?

If it wasn't for the fact that everyone didn't feel the pressure of Divinity Phase from Jacob, they would take Jacob as a cultivator who had reached the Divine Realm.

"Is there any problem?"

Jacob was not surprised at the fact that he could send Avada flying with a punch. After dealing with Avada, he looked around and asked others like an emperor who looked down on the world.

This time, everyone was silent!
