Whittaker's eyes brightened when he heard the words Spirit World and God.

"Wait," He raised his hand to ask a question from Elder Zachary.

Zachary paused in the middle of his storytelling and asked, "What is it?"

"Elder, I have a question. If the Gods are from the spirit world then what is the Spirit World?" Whittaker said.

"Hmm, the spirit world is a mysterious place and there are barely any records about this world. I don't know much about it, but I have once long ago, read an ancient record about the spirit world. In the ancient records, it is said that the divine beings and spirits live in the spirit world. It's also recorded that the souls of humans and other living creatures go to the spirit world after their death. Moreover, it is also considered the heavenly land by the members of the holy church of light. Commonly, the Spirit world is the afterlife, where a person's soul goes after death." Elder Zachary explained.

Hearing his words, Whittaker was shocked. Lord Dark Spirit has already explained much about the spirit world to Whittaker. Such as the fact that the Gods reside in the spirit world. The class weapons are a blessing from the Gods. His father is a being from the spirit world and a half spirit, half-human. However, he was not told that the spirit world is the afterlife.

Whittaker raised his head to the sky and gazed into the distance at the dazzling, twinkling stars in the night sky.

'Every time I learn more about the spirit world, the more confusing it gets. The questions keep on increasing the more answers I get. I should try to help Katherine awaken from her slumber.' He thought with a deep sense of puzzlement welling up within him.

According to Lord Dark Spirit, Katherine holds the answer to almost all of his questions.

"Don't ponder too deeply about the spirit world. It's too out of reach. Do you want to listen to the rest of the story or should I directly come to the point and tell you why we have not hunted down all the Abaddon savages?" Elder Zachary said.

Taken aback from thoughts, Whittaker asked curiously, "Elder, you can continue. What happened after God decided to intervene in the matters of the awakened continent?"

He was interested in this part of history. He wanted to know how the Gods turned the tide of the war.

"On the day that the Gods descended, innumerable Angles of light and divine warriors wearing blinding armors cascaded from the sky. After that, an earth-shaking war broke out. The Gods and their armies fought Abaddon and Its army of corrupted ones.

"As they clashed, the floods broke loose, volcanoes erupted and the earth quaked in fear of its doom. Dead bodies of both sides littered all over the wilderness and blood dyed the ground Scarlet. However, the corrupted ones were pushed back by the Gods and their armies.

"The armies of Gods marched to the land of Darkness, where the GATE to the Abyssal World has opened. The threat imposed by Abaddon could only end by closing the gates of the Abyssal world and killing Abaddon.

"During the war, the Land of Darkness has become a Dead Land due to Death Force. The corrupted ones spawned limitlessly and fought the armies of Gods. Whereas the Gods fought Abaddon. But It was too powerful as it was able to manipulate Death Force. The seven Gods together were not able to defeat it. Rather, they were being beaten back by it.

"All Hope was lost. It seemed like the Gods will be defeated and the war will be lost and the entire awakened continent was in danger of being ravaged."

"Then, suddenly a long Hum resounded. Along with the hum, an immeasurably powerful Blue light cascaded down from the sky. It was as though the Blue Light was a pillar that could support the Heaven, itself. It lit up the entire sky. Even the sun hanging high up in the sky was dim and dull under the Blue light's shine. It struck Abaddon. In a single hit, Its body was annihilated from existence, giving it no chance to regenerate. However, its soul managed to escape back to wherever it came from. And It promised to return to take its revenge." Elder Zachary finished the tale.

Whittaker sucked in a breath of chilly air. His crystal icy eyes opened wide. He said: "Amazing. Who did that Blue Light belonged to?"

"No one knows. But it must be a being greater than the Gods. Since it killed Abaddon while the seven Gods working together could not. Anyway, the moment Abaddon died and the abyssal gate was closed for good, the Gods and their armies instantly vanished from the Awakened continent as if they never existed." Elder Zachary finished with the story.

Whittaker was impressed by the power of gods and he was extremely curious about the being that used the Blue light to kill Abaddon. "However, the story of the past still doesn't answer my question..." He said.

"Well, the Gods didn't entirely clean up the mess before returning to the spirit world. Most of the corrupted ones have run away and hidden inside the ruined wilderness of the land of water." Elder Zachary said.

"Little brother, we don't hunt them to extinction because most of three reasons. First of all, most parts of the ruined wilderness lack mana and they have no life. The fauna of the land is wounded by Death Force. Vegetables and Fruits can not grow in places like the ruined wilderness and the Land of Death. It's a waste of resources and men to hunt down the corrupted ones.

"Secondly, the corrupted ones are armed with weapons specially made to hunt down mages. Their weapons can absorb vast amounts of mana from their surroundings to disturb the channeling of the elemental spell by the spellbook. Once hit by their swords or arrows, a mage will feel its mana being drain away. And so the weapon is highly useful in killing mages. However, it is also sought after by mages and battle master who wants to explore forbidden places that lacks mana. As the materials of these weapons have an obvious effect on consuming and storing mana. Thus, some of them hunt down Abaddon corrupted ones outside the northern boundary of the Water Kingdom.

"Thirdly, this is the era of world exploration. Also called Realms connecting plan. Most of the high-rank awakened are busy exploring, conquering, or establishing connections with the leader of different "Worlds".

"Oh, I understand," Whittaker said.

The awakened were more interested in newer worlds. As they have better resources, exotic beings, and wonderful sceneries. They weren't interested in battling to the life and death with corrupted ones for a Dead piece of land.

Now that the talk about the past was finished, it was time to get the reward from Elder Zachary's.

"Okay, I would like to get my reward from Elder personal items!"Whittaker said.

"Go on, you can select any item you like from the storage pouch." Elder Zachary handed over his storage pouch to Whittaker.

"I can only get one from so many items, which one should I get?" Whittaker thought while peeking at the content of the spatial pouch.

Elder Zachary was rich. He had many rare B-rank and The monster dungeon is the training ground I am choosing for you. In two months the higher you climb the better reward in his spatial pouch. Though he didn't see any S-rank one. So Whittaker wasn't able to decide which one he should get.

‹Guardian, look at the tree with a round red fruit at the corner of the storage space. That item is an S-rank treasure with a very special effect›

Suddenly, Noah's voice rang beside his ears. Hearing its words, Whittaker's attention focused on the corner of the storage space.

There, he saw a small yellowish tree with an oddly shaped Scarlet fruit hanging on one of its three branches.

«Ability Tree»

[Rank: S

Description: An invaluable tree with the ability to produce Ability fruits. Ability Fruits can grant a special ability to people who eat them.

Effect 1: The tree is able to absorb the blood of beats to produce Ability Fruits.

Effect 2: A person can only eat seven ability fruits in his entire life]

"Elder, I have decided that I want to get the Ability Tree as my reward!" Whittaker said before pulling out the small Ability Tree from Elder Zachary's Spatial pouch.

"Oh, so this item has caught your interest. I guess you must have read about it in the books. It's an ability tree. It will produce an Ability Fruit in seven days if you feed it the blood of seven F-rank beast. Similarly, it will produce an E-rank Ability Fruit in 2 weeks. if you feed the blood of six E-rank beasts to the ability tree. The amount of magical beast decrease with the increase in rank. You only need to feed it the blood of an S-ranked beast and it will produce an S-rank ability Fruit in seven weeks. I have fed it the blood of King Salmon. It's an S-ranked beast. The S-ranked Ability Fruit will fully form after some weeks, you can take the fruit and eat it when it ripe" Elder Zachary said to Whittaker with a gentle look on his elderly face

"Yes, Elder. Thank you!" Whittaker nodded his head vigorously.

He was gonna get a free S-ranked ability and that made him overly excited and eager to get the S-ranked ability Fruit soon.
