Chapter 227: Ignore It
However, what Prince VII was doing now was at most a small matter. There was no need to care.
The Nicholas family just had to continue to develop steadily according to the current pace.
The next step was to return to the Holy Light City.
Prince VII only stayed in Winterfrost for a few days before leaving. However, the discussions outside had continued for a while. Now that many people had determined that the Nicholas family clan had already attached itself to Prince VII, they looked forward to the subsequent development of matters between the Nicholas family clan and the four large family clans of the Holy Light City.
It was not known if it was because of the appearance of the Seventh Prince, thereafter Nicholas family did not encounter any more dangers like assassination attempts.
As there was no need, Romo did not specially visit Ron in his dream to say anything. As usual, the Nicholas family lived a quiet and low-key life.
As for Norton, Dick, and the others, after Masha, they had encountered two more interceptions by experts. They were all people who had a feud with the Nicholas family.
The outcome of these people was that they naturally became training tools for Norton and the others, and they were all disposed of after a single use. freewebnovel.(c)om
After that, they did not encounter anyone else who had come to seek death. Norton and the others had also entered the inner region of the Calamity Mountain Range.
Romo only used the Visitation Talisman occasionally to check on them. There had not been any problems. If there was a problem, the System would immediately remind him.
Days passed, and the monthly ancestral worship gift bag was refreshed again. However, no special items appeared.
Romo’s inventory of Faith Points continued to accumulate, and he was gradually approaching a million Faith Points!
In the Calamity Mountain Range, on the peak of a tall mountain, a figure was standing and cultivating. It was Karuman.
A roar sounded not far away, causing Karuman to open his eyes and look over. There was a sea of clouds around him, and hidden in it was the Endless Mountain Forest. Danger lurked everywhere.
Then, Karuman retracted his gaze and muttered, “I wonder how they are doing now.”
This was already the depths of the Calamity Mountain Range. Even Karuman did not dare to go deeper rashly.
But Norton, Dick, Jimmy, Zoro, and the others were in the same area as him.
However, everyone had separated. A few days ago, Karuman, who had led the way here, seemed to have lost his value and was temporarily abandoned by everyone.
Everyone had agreed that they would return here half a month later to meet up. Thinking of the true strength the Nicholas family had displayed after entering the Calamity Mountain Range and their almost reckless momentum for training, Karuman could not help but sigh. They were really strong. Karuman could not imagine how they had suddenly increased their levels to such a high level, but they were really pushing themselves hard and risking their lives.
Although everyone had formed a team to enter the Calamity Mountain Range, when they encountered monsters who were level-5 or higher, everyone from the Nicholas family clan would fight alone. No one else would intervene.
Once, Jimmy fought with a monster that was equivalent to a level-5 Great Archmage and almost lost his life!
Everyone advanced forward, almost exclusively heading for dangerous places. The risks were great, but the gains were not small either. They had obtained many treasures. Moreover, Karuman had also witnessed the astonishing growth of the Nicholas family, not in terms of level, but in terms of combat experience.
After coming to this area, everyone decided to split up. The three with higher levels went deeper into the area, while the ones with lower levels scattered in this area.
Karuman became an old man who stayed behind to wait for everyone to return.
He did not need to go out to train or search for treasures anymore, so he cultivated here. Currently, he was still in the effective period of the Retainer Cultivation Speed Talisman. He enjoyed the feeling of his level soaring.
Moreover, the divine Qi here was much richer than in Winterfrost, and the effect of cultivation was better.
If he were to go to the Holy Light City, the divine Qi there would be even richer, and it would be even more comfortable!
Now, Karuman could already guess what the Nicholas family was going to do next. He believed that it would not be long before they would charge back to the Holy Light City and take back everything that had been snatched away!
When he first entered the Nicholas family, Karuman had not expected such a day to come, and to come so soon!
Another half a month passed in a flash.
The fervent discussion about the Nicholas family clan in Winterfrost had passed, but many people were looking forward to the next show.
The Nicholas family remained quiet and low-key during this period of time. It was as if the visit by the Seventh Prince had not affected the Nicholas family clan at all.
On the other hand, the secular business of the Nicholas family clan had recently launched a new item called cigarette. It became popular immediately after it was launched.
Many people had said that even if the Nicholas family relied solely on these secular businesses, they would have the chance to become the wealthiest family clan in the future.
This afternoon, in the forbidden ground of the Nicholas family clan, the people cultivating in the forbidden ground today were the couple, Jack and Sonia.
There was also Ron, who was refining pills.
Currently, the forbidden ground was rather huge. With the Water Moon Stone and the spirit spring water as the center, Romo had divided it into three separate areas.
Suddenly, an abnormal pill cloud fluctuation appeared, waking Jack and Sonia from their cultivation.
The two of them were stunned at first, and then they looked pleasantly surprised. They immediately stopped cultivating and came to where Ron was.
The temperature in the area where Ron was at was much higher, especially after they got closer to Ron. The two of them even had to use their true essence to resist the dense heat.
A huge Alchemy Cauldron, about the height of a person, was emitting a heart-palpitating heat. The strong aroma of pills drifted out from the Alchemy Cauldron, making one feel refreshed.
Ron was sitting on a rock in front of the Alchemy Cauldron, putting a few pills into a glass bottle.
Sonia said in surprise, “Ron, are you already able to refine grade-5 pills?!”
Ron looked at the two of them and nodded with a smile. “Yes, I’ve finally succeeded once.”
Going from grade-4 to grade-5 could be said to be a watershed in alchemy skills. It was just like how a Great Mage could only be considered a true expert after reaching the level of a Great Archmage. A level-5 alchemist was the expert among alchemists and could be called a master!!
A level-5 alchemist was an existence sought after no matter where he went. Even a Great Archmage would respect or even curry favor with him.
In the Zina Kingdom, there was an organization called the Alchemist Guild. It was not a sect or family clan faction, but an open professional organization. It was similar to the Merchant Union etc. All the alchemists in the world could join, and its status even surpassed that of all the alchemist sects.
Although the headquarters of the Alchemist Guild was built in the Zina Kingdom, it did not belong to the Zina Kingdom. Even the nobles of the Zina Kingdom respected the Alchemist Guild.
A level-5 alchemist was an existence that could hold the title of a mentor even in the Alchemist Guild.
