Avon and Laia felt an aura surround them and then were brought out of the artifact. It seemed as though Reveria enveloped them in some aura capable of protecting them from the dangers of space.
They looked at Reveria and the evil cultivator, who were in a stalemate. The sheer killing intent leaking from the Evil cultivator suffocated them. Reveria spoke in haste
"Listen to me carefully. I and that man are stuck in a stalemate right now. Right now if the energy stored in my body fluctuates even little then I will lose control over the spell. So, I can neither recover as that will increase my energy nor commence with another attack that will deplete my energy. The same goes for that man. Because that poison entered my bloodstream earlier , my strength has weakened ,but now I can manage. I have brought his strength down to my level too. So with this we are stuck in a stalemate. Our reserves are huge so this will continue for a long time. In that time I need one of you to use the spacecraft I came in to go to three planets: Steela, Philon and Xianzin. Go there and ask for an audience with the Knight of the planet and ask 'The flower that blooms in thought gives what' and if they answer 'seeds of action' then tell them that I sent you and ask for a audience with the knight of the planet."
Then Reveria pulled out a palm sized circular medallion. It had designs of multiple flowers on one side and on the other side it seemed to be missing something. "Once meeting the knight show this medallion. They will know what to do. Also, if someone seems suspicious, even the knight, ask them this question '' Is purple the most evil of all colors?""
Suddenly the evil cultivator who was silent all this while shouted "Bitch! How do you know that? I will kill you! Let me just escape this and your entire family and planet will be slaughtered!"
Reveria paid no attention and continued "should they reply be 'it is only the strongest of all' " then know that they are in cahoots with the evil heretic cultivators. Do not involve with those people. Though it will not be a very difficult task, there are some unknown factors which make it a little risky. Though the chances of danger are low, they are not zero. I did not want this but now I have no choice. Just use the spacecraft and you will reach in a few days. So, I need one of you to do this and the other one, I have an artifact that will help you grow stronger quickly. I will train you sufficiently so that you can help me defeat this man. So, I ask for one of you to go and complete the medallion"
Avon asked "Why not let both of us use the artifact to get stronger immediately, then we both can help you!"
" That medallion will help me gain my powers back and do much more. It is not like I have no chance of winning without it but if I want a decisive victory I need the medallion. Because I was weakened, my cultivation fell down and using my strength and artifact I have lowered that man's cultivation to my level too. But heretics are unpredictable and have various tricks to play. He does not hesitate to use the black arts so I must end the battle quickly once the stalemate breaks. So, the medallion is very important. Also, no matter how much I train you now, you will not be strong enough to help me against him. I can only train you so that you can protect yourselves against him."
The heretic man had fallen silent. It seems that he didn't care anymore.
Avon had no confidence in self. He was worried he might mess up the simple task too. He looked at Laia and remembered how she already ahead in training.
He realised that she could continue to train and grow stronger faster than him. Since the task didn't require any strength, he should be the one to go. Because her growth would definitely exceed his.
"I will go, Laia can train and grow stronger."
He spoke.
Reveria looked at Avon with worry seeing how he still had no confidence in himself, but now was not the time to make him understand.
"Okay, Try your best to return in a month. Alright? There might be some variations in time so we cannot be sure about the duration of the travel. I will send a signal to the medallion once I notice the stalemate is on the verge of breaking. The medallion will shine brightly at that time. Also if for some reason if it is taking longer than expected, do not return without all the three pieces. Even if you are late come back with all the three pieces. I am counting on you."
Then she summoned another artifact and it grew in size and turned out to be a spaceship. "It will take you to the planet steela first. Learn on the planet how to use this and go to Philon and Xianzin on your own. Be safe. Also do not tell anyone about me or your planet just awakening"
"yes master" saying so Avon rushed into the spacecraft and it automatically started to move. Avon stood alone inside the huge spacecraft and took deep breaths to calm his racing heart. So much had happened so suddenly that he didn't have the time to process it properly.
'I must complete this task quickly!"
He couldn't see outside but on the main panel he could see a video of Earth playing. He could see the Earth getting smaller and smaller and diminishing from sight. Soon the video stopped playing.
