Dual Cultivator with a cultivation system



Ebonheart City

The Ebonheart City was perched on a series of ascending terraces, each tier home to towering pagodas and majestic spires adorned with intricate carvings that told the tales of the city's history. The buildings were constructed from luminous jade and celestial stone, and they shimmered with an otherworldly glow as the morning sun's first rays kissed their surfaces. Delicate bridges arched over cascading waterfalls, connecting the terraces like a spider's silken threads, and their crystalline waters flowed with the soft hum of celestial energy.

As the day progressed, merchants and artisans set up their stalls in the bustling market square. Stalls displayed rare herbs, mystical artifacts, and ancient talismans said to unlock hidden powers within. The air was filled with the exotic scents of incense, mingling with the laughter and chatter of the residents and visitors.

Wang Ming was currently seated inside a tavern, sipping hot spiritual tea and admiring the scenery before him. He had taken a mission that fortunately was located inside Ebonheart City. The task involved carrying the ingredients for a Foundation Realm-ranking pill known as the 'Earth Cure Pill,' which a 1-star Alchemist was capable of concocting. According to the mission details, the City Lord's wife was facing certain health issues and required specific ingredients to make a pill to heal her.

"Excuse me, can you tell me the location of the City Lord's Mansion?" After he was done savoring the tea, Wang Ming went to the counter and asked the female receptionist about the location. He also tossed a pouch of gold coins, which she took with a slight smile without looking at him. However, when she finally glanced at his handsome face, a blush appeared on her face.

"Y-yes, it's a couple of blocks away. You will find a large mansion at the center of the city," the receptionist replied with a slight stutter.

Wang Ming thanked the receptionist and left the tavern. He followed her instructions and passed by a few stores, checking if there was anything precious but finding nothing of value. Some even attempted to scam him, but he didn't fall for it. After walking for some time, he arrived at his destination.

The city lord's mansion, known as the most majestic building stands as a testament to the city lord's authority and influence. Situated at the heart of the city, it is an imposing structure that dominates the skyline with its grandeur. The mansion is enclosed by high, jade-colored walls adorned with intricate carvings of mystical beasts and ancient scriptures. Twin dragon statues guard the massive, ornate gates, their eyes seemingly following all who approach.

"Halt, who are you?" one of the guards asked, looking at Wang Ming with a serious expression. He could sense Wang Ming's cultivation, which Wang Ming had suppressed to the peak of Core Formation Realm.

"I am a disciple from the Yin-Yang Sect. I am here to complete a mission assigned by the City Lord," Wang Ming said as he showed his token to the guard, who nodded in acknowledgment.

"I will inform them. In the meantime, he will escort you to the guest hall," the guard instructed the other guard. However, before they could proceed, a feminine voice called out to them 

"Hmm, who might you be?" A beautiful young woman with a voluptuous body gracefully arrived in front of them. When she saw Wang Ming, she was momentarily stunned, and a rosy hue appeared on her face.

"Lady Sun Jing, this young man is a disciple from the Yin-Yang Sect. He claims that the City Lord has assigned some kind of mission to the sect, and he has come to complete it," the guard said in a respectful tone. Sun Jing was the daughter-in-law of the City Lord.

"Mission?" Sun Jing frowned as she looked at Wang Ming with questioning eyes.

"Yes, according to the contents of the mission, the City Lord commissioned the sect to deliver 'Blue Earth Grass' for making the Earth Cure Pill for his wife," Wang Ming explained to the confused lady. When the guards and Sun Jing heard this, their faces became a bit sad.

"I see. Father-in-law did say something about this, that he issued a mission last week. I'm afraid you might be a bit late. I will still go and inform him. You take him to the guest hall," Sun Jing said, causing Wang Ming to frown a bit. He followed the guards to the hall to wait for the City Lord.

Inner Living Area

As Sun Jing appeared, she could see her husband and father-in-law in heated arguments with some old men.

"What do you mean she has only a month to live at most?" shouted a middle-aged man, Lei Wei, the current City Lord of Ebonheart City, whose family had ruled the city for years.

"We just found out now that her condition suddenly worsened. I recommend reaching out to a 2-star Alchemist to obtain that pill," the physician said, sounding a bit unsure."

"If anything happens to my mother, I will kill you guys!" shouted Lei Tao, the son of the City Lord, with a furious expression on his face.

"Tap, tap."

They turned their heads as the sound of approaching footsteps reached their ears. Sun Jing was approaching.

"Father, there's a disciple from the Yi-Yang sect here to deliver the Blue Heart Grass," Sun Jing said quietly.

"Give him the payment and send him back. There's no use for it. These useless bastards claim we need the 'Golden Mist Pill,' a True Core Realm rank pill, and only a 2-star Alchemist can concoct it. I have the ingredients in the warehouse, but finding such an Alchemist is a very difficult task," Lei Wei said in a defeated tone, his face darkening slightly. When the physicians saw this expression their faces turned pale as they knew if anything happened to Lady, the lord would execute them 

" Yes, I will go and inform him," Sun Jing said as she left the bickering men
