Chapter 1742: What Elements Should I Awaken? Translated by XephiZ Edited by Aelryinth “You still have another Element to Awaken! Brother Fan, I’m starting to feel a little jealous of you. We need to cultivate so hard and advance to the next level to Awaken a new Element, but you can still choose a second Element to Awaken after deciding on the first one every level!” Zhang Xiaohou exclaimed. Mo Fan was extremely pleased, but Zhang Xiaohou added on before he could speak, “But Awakening two Elements at every level is rather troublesome, too. Most people will have to spend a huge sum on their new Elements, whether it’s buying expensive Awakening Stones or hiring talented Awakening Mages. They will have to spend almost all their savings on a new Element, but it’s double the cost for you when you Awaken two new Elements. I heard that the Awakening Stones are the most expensive resources in the world!” Many Mages spent all their savings just to Awaken the Elements they desired, and they had to spend a lot more on the resources for the Element just to become better than others. It was like raising a kid. If they had the money, they would not just provide them with ordinary education. They would do everything to secure them a head start! It was the same for a new Element, too. Even though it was a new Element Awakened at a later time, they would have to start cultivating it from the bottom, as these new Elements could be extremely useful if they planned their growth properly from the start! “How expensive are the Awakening Stones?” Mo Fan had to ask. “Very! if Brother Fan doesn’t want to spend the money, you can feel your heart race and just wing it. Just go with whatever you end up Awakening. That’s how it was for us, anyway,” Zhang Xiaohou admitted. The Stone to Awaken new Elements at the Super Level was different. Most Super Mages literally spent all their possessions just to acquire an Awakening Stone. It was almost impossible without the financial support of a formidable faction! It was also time to change their equipment and artifacts after reaching the Super Level, and all of that cost money, too! “Forget about Awakening a random new Element. I’m seriously worried about the odds of Awakening the Psychic Element or Healing Element in the end,” Mo Fan admitted. “Brother Fan, other people desperately want to Awaken the Psychic Element or the Healing Element. The latter, in particular, is like a tree that sheds money... It’s not as bad as you imagine. You have so many Elements, so it’s not a problem for you to become an all-around Mage, either,” Zhang Xiaohou pointed out. The Psychic Element and the Healing Element were the most popular Elements of White Magic. The renowned clans were constantly competing with one another to get their hands on Mages with those Elements, yet Mo Fan was worried that he might Awaken them! Zhang Xiaohou seriously had no idea what to say. Being an all-around Mage... Mo Fan did consider it, but he was well aware of how Mages practiced White Magic. Xinxia was a perfect example. Mo Fan seriously believed his personality was not suitable for that, so the Elements would not be of any use to him, even if he did Awaken them. He would rather increase his firepower to a terrifying level than have some useless Elements! “Brother Fan, have you made up your mind?” Zhang Xiaohou asked. “Not yet, I’ll have to think about it first. There’s no need to rush it now,” Mo Fan replied. Mo Fan had a few options in mind, yet was struggling to make a decision for when he finally had the chance to do so... —— Mo Fan moved to another place. An alluring figure suddenly showed up while he was still having troubling thoughts about his new Elements. Mo Fan was confused, but he still went after her. He saw the alluring figure standing on the roof, staring in the direction of the Qinling Mountains. “Apas, what are you doing? Do you miss Africa?” Mo Fan asked her. Apas ignored Mo Fan. Her delicate face had a menacing look, while her eyes had a strong hostile expression! Mo Fan realized something was not right. He jumped up to the roof and followed Apas’ gaze. However, he was unable to see anything other then the magnificent silhouettes of the Qinling Mountains. “Don’t just keep quiet, what’s wrong?” Mo Fan asked her firmly. “Something has caught its spirit! It was supposed to be slowly carried away by the Wind of Sorrow in the Qinling Mountains!” Apas stated. “Spirit? Whose spirit?” Mo Fan was confused. “The Flamebird’s!” Apas answered. Mo Fan opened his mouth, but was lost for words. The Flamebird’s spirit? Mo Fan had witnessed the Flamebird’s death. It had become a wandering spirit in the Qinling Mountains that would slowly dissipate in time. Why did Apas say its spirit was caught? Did the Ox-Head and Horse-Face that were responsible for capturing the wandering souls and bringing them to the underworld really exist? The Ox-Head and Horse-Face clearly did not exist, but there were some unique phantoms that might specifically hunt for the wandering souls of the deceased to improve their cultivation. However, Mo Fan had no clue what Apas was referring to, or why it had targeted the Flamebird’s spirit specifically. “Do you know what it is?” Mo Fan asked. “I don’t, but I will be able to tell when I see it!” Apas responded. “Oh...” The spot where the Flamebird had died was extremely far away from them. Mo Fan had no idea how Apas was able to sense something so far away. Perhaps she had left a spiritual mark on the Flamebird’s soul before they left. Either way, it was beyond his capabilities! Apas seemed to know there was nothing she could do, either. It was unlikely the dead would have any dealings with living creatures. She could only stare in that direction angrily. “You looked rather imposing just then. I bet your strength has recovered after I reached the Super Level,” Mo Fan patted Apas’ head. “Humph!” Apas responded with her nose. She went into her room in a bad mood, heading back to bed. Mo Fan watched her leave before looking at the Qinling Mountains. For some reason, Mo Fan had a strange feeling about the whole thing. It felt like he was experiencing déjà vu at that particular instant. However, he was unable to recall the details of why it all felt familiar to him. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦 “Forget it, maybe I had a similar dream before,” Mo Fan shook his head. He did not overthink it. He would eventually recall it if it was really that important. It was meaningless to try recalling something he had forgotten. He followed Apas into the room. He suddenly thought of something. He casually patted on Apas’ back and said, “By the way, didn’t you ask me to teach you magic? I’m about to Awaken new Elements! I’ll be training from the beginning, too...”
