Arthur gave him a deep look before he said, "it might be small to you, but to me it's big."

"No way! You've found the original essence flower! That's incredible!"

The tone this time that came from the original showed how much excited and thrilled this giant was.

"Does this flower have anything to do with you?" he asked and waited patiently for the answer.

"It's our essence, the source of all our strength," the original said before his face froze. It looked like distant forgotten pieces of his memory started to come back together.

"It can give us more power," the original said, "back in the days we couldn't find one flower for each one of us. Only those hailing from noble bloodlines would have a chance in eating one."

"Eating?" Arthur asked before he realized something. "So you mean this flower can give you more power?"

"It can open the doors of god-like power to us," the original said in excited tone, "my lord, you are really benevolent. Can you give me this flower? I beg you!"

The next instant that original fell to the ground on his knees and even hit the earth with his forehead. Arthur was taken aback with such action before he sighed.

"I believe flowers were rare back in your days, right?"

"My lord is wise and right all the time," the original seemed to grow more boat licking attitude to gain Arthur's approval.

"But after all these years… Don't you think there are too many of these flowers in this world to satisfy all of you?" the words of Arthur made sense, but the original never moved a finger from his position.

After all, what Arthur said was true, but it seemed there was a secret that Arthur didn't know.

"These rocks imprisoning me and my people are savage," the original said, "they will look for the flowers and smash into them. They aim towards burning them down."

"And would they succeed in that?" Arthur was curious to hear the answer.

"They will only mask the flower's presence," the original said before revealing another shocking secret, "they will bury it so deep in the ground and cover it with thick layers of ores."

"Ore veins you mean?" Arthur's face changed abruptly at this point. He realized something. "Damn! The ones working on the ore veins around these settlements!!"

It hit Arthur without warning! The next instant his mind was filled with horror images of many ores falling over the heads of those working at settlements.

'Don't worry, I'll keep in touch with them,' Gege read his thoughts and said to reassure him.

"But you'll need ores for that," Arthur knew the trick wasn't in just using the ores, but with using the sword afterwards.

After all the first time he used the ores he couldn't see any glimpse at all of that flower.

'Ding! What about she moves you there to take it?' The system proposed a logical solution.

"But that means I'll have to jump all over the place without warning," Arthur couldn't help but sigh. This secret held an opportunity plus a misfortune at the same time.

If things went astray or he even delayed going there for a few minutes, everything would be burnt to the ground by the purple fire.

But he needed these flowers. From the words of this original, Arthur started to grow an interest in seeing the effects of this flower on the originals.

The originals were domineering to begin with. But if he could make them stronger, he wouldn't hesitate to do that!

"Alright," this was the most possible solution he could have at the moment. "But don't forget to keep portals at each settlement."

'I've already covered that,' Gege said in confidence before Arthur turned to that original. The latter was still bowing to him, without any change in his posture.

"Go in for now," Arthur didn't hurry to test the flower over this original. He had a long journey to cross and many things to attend to first.

Besides, he wasn't in the struggle of war at the moment. For a rare moment since reincarnation, he had a period of peace that he wanted to enjoy to the fullest.

As an ex-cultivator, he knew no cultivator could reach the top living like this. Stress was the main enemy, the sworn enemy of any cultivator.

Cultivation needed tranquility and a mind empty of any thoughts or worry. If there were any, then cultivation would be flawed and even would end up by a disaster.

Arthur intended not only to strengthen the base of his empire, but also to advance as far as possible in his cultivation. He didn't want to be hindered by his base any longer.

He aimed to head to the immortal stage, his old and long awaited dream.

The original seemed not wanting to leave. However he didn't dare to object to a direct order from his master. But Arthur suddenly recalled the main reason he wanted him here.

"Wait," he stopped the original just at the portal, "how can I take these ores down?"

"These?" The original looked at the ores with no interest. Before knowing about the flower's original essence, he seemed a bit intimidated by these ores.

"I can help with that," the original hesitated for a moment, "but doing so might bring some harm to you."

"Will you explode them?" Arthur realized instantly what this crazy original intended to do.

"That's the easiest way," the original shrugged.

"No, I want them inside your world," Arthur said as he pointed towards these ores hanging in midair.

"Oh, then I might need more help," the original's face changed before adding, "but if I took the flower, my new power will be enough to…"

Arthur interrupted him by raising his hand in front of the original's face. "Stop it, I won't do it for now."

The original showed a tinge of disappointment. "I'll provide flowers for everyone, so don't be this dejected and start preparing to bring me these ores."

The original nodded but Arthur felt no joy coming out of his pale smile. "I need five more to form a six diagram," he said and his words made Arthur quite interested to hear more.

"You mean array?" Arthur asked.

"What's an array?" but the original tone and reaction told Arthur he knew nothing about arrays.

"Never mind," Arthur decided to step to the side and watch. He would analyze what these originals would do and compare this with the arrays he was familiar with.

What was different was the number of the array, or the diagram. Arrays usually come in odd numbers. Yet this diagram was in even number. This was the first difference Arthur noticed.

But when he stood to the side and watched the six originals preparing to act, he realized there were more fundamental differences between diagrams and arrays.
