Since he was receiving rewards from [Heaven's Voice] from time to time, Leo could not help but think of another reward for completing the Hidden Mission.
He strongly believed that he would receive the rewards instantly after completing the Hidden Missions because it was not a regular [Ascending World].
Instead, Leo had used [Direct God Ascending Ticket] and as long as he successfully completed the [Ascending Mission], he would directly become the God.
Therefore, there was no use in increasing his Ascender's rank further as he didn't have any use for it after he became a God.
[The ascender can pick two of the three items from the list below as the rewards for completing a Hidden Mission]
Just like Leo guessed, [Heaven's Voice] showed a list of three items in front of him in its usual mist writing.
…
1) A Mid-level Foundation Establishment Pill.
2) A High-level Rank 2 Defensive Array.
3) A low-level Rank 3 Combat Puppet.
….
'The rewards are good.'
Leo liked the three items, especially the third item.
A low-level Rank 3 Combat Puppet has the strength of a level 1-3 Golden Core Realm Cultivator.
With its help, Leo doesn't have to worry about the two other sects in Silvermoon City any longer.
'Moreover, if I add a High-level Rank 2 Defensive Array around the sect, it would be almost impossible for the two sects to invade my sect even if they worked together.'
Leo took a look at the three items in front of them and without thinking much, he directly selected, 'I will take the second and third items as my rewards.'
Even though the Foundation Establishment Pill was also a good item, compared to the other two items, it was not worth much in Leo's eyes.
For now, the most important thing for Leo was to protect his little sect and eventually, he could become stronger along with it.
'Swoosh'
'Swoosh'
As soon as he selected the items, two lights flashed as Leo received two items.
One was a brown-coloured array disc whereas the other item was a puppet who looked like a human.
If Leo didn't know it was a puppet, he would have mistaken it for a human without a doubt.
'Let's use the array disc first.'
Without wasting any time, Leo dropped a single drop of blood on the array disc.
From the memories of his predecessor, Leo knew how to activate and use the array discs.
Hence, without wasting any time, Leo controlled the array disc and created a barrier around the sect.
At the same time, Leo checked the rank 3 puppet and saw that it had an inbuilt High-level Spirit Stone in it.
'It looks like I have to find a High-level Spirit Stone to keep using it.'
Almost all the puppets he knew worked on Spirit Stones. Depending on the slot created for the puppet, a puppet could use the Spirit Stones to work.
The higher the level of the spirit stone, the longer and more powerful the puppet would be.
From the slot that Leo saw on the rank 3 Puppet, he could tell that only high-level spirit stones could be installed into it. Therefore, he decided to collect a high-level spirit stone in the future.
'Anyway, as long as I don't use the puppet, it could last for many years and if it fights a Golden Core Realm Cultivator, it might last for a day or two.'
Currently, there were no Golden Core Realm Cultivators in Silvermoon City. So, Leo was not worried about the sudden appearance of the Golden Core Realm Cultivators and attacking his sect.
'When I leave the sect, I can give this array disc and the Rank 3 Puppet to Gallant and I can no longer worry about the sect.'
With the appearance of the two items, Leo doesn't have to wait and could enter the Dark Moon Forest at any time.
'Anyway, before leaving the sect, I need to make some preparations to protect myself in the wilderness and at the same time, I should leave behind some special cultivation resources for the sect's disciples and elders.'
Currently, Leo didn't have any intention of taking the new disciples into his sect and doesn't have any intention of giving up on the existing disciples as they stayed loyal to him and the sect despite knowing there was no future.
'As for when I should leave the sect to enter the Dark Moon Forest, it entirely depends on my Level 2 [Fundamental Merge].'
Soon, Leo's eyes fell on the Moon Stone beside him and picked it up with a smile.
Leo was yet to upgrade his [Fundamental Merge] and was hoping to see more uses in a day so that he could merge more items.
With more special items, Leo could leave behind some of them for the disciples and enter the Dark Moon Forest.
'It's time to upgrade my talent.'
Without wasting any time, Leo crushed the moonstone while keeping his entire focus on upgrading the [Fundamental Merge].
'Swoosh'
Soon, the mysterious moon energy inside the moonstone rushed into Leo's body and in the next second, Leo felt unbearable pain in his head.
'It's….been …a while….since…I felt this pain.'
Leo gritted his teeth and endured the pain for a few minutes.
[Congratulations to the Ascender for successfully upgrading your talent to level 2]
[You can pick one of the two rewards]
1) A low-level Foundation Establishment Pill.
2) An additional slot for the [Fundamental Merge] per day.
Before he could check the changes in the [Fundamental Merge] after it became a level 2, Leo received the announcements from [Heaven's Voice], asking to pick one of the two rewards.
'Of course, my choice will be the second option.'
Looking at the two rewards, Leo didn't think much about it as he directly selected the additional use for the talent.
Because as long as he found the ingredients he could refine as many Foundation Establishment Pills as possible.
With the additional slot, he could get one extra special item per day. So, there was nothing much to think about.
'Let's see the changes in the [Fundamental Merge] now.'
