Chapter 164 – Elemental Nexus Realm
As he watched the Medics quickly leave, Vincent turned towards Dante as he asked,
"You sure you want to just watch them leave like that?
I know your state isn't as bad as your friends over there, but you should still get it treated.
Not properly treating your injuries could leave some hidden damage that might obstruct your future cultivation path.
hearing Vincent's words, Dante just smiled.
"I was never planning on leaving myself as I am now. I actually planning on doing something I've been planning to do for a long time now" said Dante
"I would like to use all the contribution points I've earned from my position as Dragon Son to enter the Elemental Nexus Realm!"
Elemental Nexus
An extremely rare phenomenon that occurs randomly in the Martial spirit world.
This strange phenomenon created a source of energy, complete with all known types of spirit energy.
From the common Elements like fire and water to the extremely rare elements like void or even death elements, the elemental nexus was able to produce them all.
Many years ago, around the times of the foundation of the Vaenam Kingdom.
An Elemental Nexus was formed in the very Kingdom Capital.
At the rate of the expansion of the Elemental Nexus, it could have led to the complete destruction of the kingdom.
Fortunately, during this time mysterious cultivator from the main continent was also seen passing by at that time.
With the knowledge of this Mysterious cultivator and the persistent effort of the founders of the Vaenam Kingdom they not only contained this Elemental Nexus but even managed to develop a small realm that contained aspects of the Elemental Nexus.
No one knows what deals were made between the two parties but eventually, this newly created realm was allowed to be kept by the Vaenam Kingdom.
Although this newly created realm barely even held a fraction of the power of a Real Elemental nexus, it was still able to produce also countless rare elements that were extremely hard to encounter outside of the world.
The realm created by the Hidden Dragon Academy was still amazing.
It had the abilities it had didn't just end at creating energy either.
The realm had the ability to greatly increase the students' cultivation speed and also their comprehension of the martial skills to an almost unbelievable degree.
But just like any good thing, the Elemental Nexus array came with a cost and it wasn't a light one either
The number of elemental and spirit energy crystals used to power the realm was simply astronomical.
And it's because of this cost that the Hidden Dragon Academy has heavily restricted its usage.
No amount of gold can be used to buy a spot in the Elemental Nexus array, instead only things known as contribution points, which were handed out by the Hidden Dragon Academy, could be used to enter the Elemental Nexus array.
But even with all these restrictions, the number of contribution points needed to obtain a spot in the elemental Nexus Realm was ridiculous.
Fortunately for Dante, this is where he is better off than most as the positions of Dragon Son came into play
The position of Dragon Son comes with many perks and one of them is the monthly top of contribution points.
It is because of this that Dante even had the confidence to ask to enter the Elemental Nexus Realm as he knew that even his distinguished position As Dragon Son of War would still not be enough to get him into the Elemental Nexus Realm for free.
When it came to such valued assets like the Elemental Nexus Realm, the rules wouldn't be bent even in the slightest.
After Vincent heard Dante's proposal, he was at first shocked that Dante would try something so ridiculous.
But after Vincent thought for a while he just took a second to look at Dante's messy figure before sighing,
"Sigh! I guess if this is what you want, then there's nothing I can do to stop you." Said Vincent
"come with me.."
with that, Vincent headed out of his office with Dante following closely behind him
….
a few minutes later Dante and Vincent were standing in front of a heavily guarded teleportation circle.
"This is the last line of defence before you enter the Elemental Nexus Realm."
After saying this, Vincent didn't explain further and simply walked towards the teleportation circle.
As expected of someone of Vincent's rank, the stationed guards didn't even move to question him and only nodded in approval before letting him pass through the Teleportation circle.
The only unfortunate thing was that when Dante tried the same thing, he didn't seem to share such privileged treatment.
"Halt." Said the guard just as Dante was approaching the teleportation formation.
Although he was disappointed he couldn't walk in as easily as Vincent, Dante wasn't surprised by this sort of treatment as Vincent had already told him about the stringent inspections that most regular people had to pass through in order to enter the Elemental Nexus Realm
Without much hassle, Dante brought forth his special identification token signature to the Dragon Son of war.
As he did so, the guard brought up a mystical glowing crystal and placed it against the token.
Suddenly, a set of glowing numbers appeared.
300
seeing this number, Dante simply nodded in approval
50 contribution points for coming first in the entrance exam, 150 contribution points for breaking the mountain of will record and 100 contribution points for the monthly top of Dragon Son, coming up to the total of 300 contribution points
"So how much time are you planning on spending in the Elemental Nexus Lord Dragon Son." asked the guard in a much more humble tone than before.
Seeing this swift change of the guard's attitude, Dante wasn't surprised, as this could only be expected.
Although his title of Dragon Son wasn't enough to let him enter the Elemental nexus array at a reduced cost, it was at least enough for him to get much politer treatment.
