AFTER 1 MONTH (9.3B, HW'49'49, PLS2'25'87)
BOOOM! hundreds of soul remnants and few soul essences flew into Chen Xiao's soul vessel.
"Good! now I can cast my 'Lightning Void Spear' in same time as any other Advance Tier spell with its power as strong as a Super Tier Spell." Chen Xiao praised himself.
RING RING~
"# Chen Xiao there is news on Moth Woman. You should return to China, this time chances of finding her are very high." Bai Cangfeng informed.
"# Ok I will be there by tomorrow." Chen Xiao said and end the call.
"Seems like it's time to go. I can only hope that the monsters I have driven towards the Sun Gathering Peak will be able to frighten away the explorers." Chen Xiao said to himself.
"Level 1 Blink: Single" Chen Xiao teleported away.
NEXT DAY(9.3B, 10S, 4W, HW'49'49, PLS2'25'87)
"So, where is the information?" Chen Xiao asked.
"Here, she is supposed to be staying near a town. Many people have claimed to witness her there." Bai Cangfeng said.
"Are you done with your family business?" Chen Xiao asked.
"Not yet, it might take another month." Bai Cangfeng replied. Thanks to his performance in World College Tournament, the standing of his family have risen in the Bai Clan but they are at the lowest of the upper circle as they don't have a Super mage to contribute to anything big. And Bai Cangfeng is doing his best to prove his worth is more than any other Advance Tier mage in Clan.
"Ok, I will meet you later then." Chen Xiao said and fly off to the estimated location of Moth Woman.
After few minutes, I landed near the town and rent a place to continue with my plan.
AT NIGHT
I came out of the safe zone and went to find the Moth Woman using Dark Noble Mantle.
After searching for several hours, I found a woman in traditional attire standing near the lake admiring the beautiful moon and lake.
"Hello there beautiful lady." Chen Xiao greeted the woman.
"Who?!" woman got baffled by Chen Xiao's voice.
"Hello, my name is Chen Xiao." Chen Xiao introduce himself and extend his hand for handshake.
"Umm... my name is Yu Shishi." woman introduce herself but didn't shake hands with Chen Xiao.

"Are you a hunter?" Chen Xiao asked.
"I'm not obliged to answer you." Yu Shishi replied.
"I can't sense any magic from you, by any chance are you a normal person?" Chen Xiao asked.
"I'm not obliged to answer you. Now leave me alone." Yu Shishi said in annoyance.
"I'm afraid I can't. Anyways what are you doing here?" Chen Xiao asked.
"...."
"I guess you are here admiring this beautiful night scenerio." Chen Xiao said and sit down near Yu Shishi.
"Why are you here?" Yu Shishi asked.
"First answer my question." Chen Xiao demanded.
"You just answer that yourself." Yu Shishi said.
"I'm here to make a deal." Chen Xiao replied.
"Deal? are you here for some business deal." Yu Shishi asked.
"Not really, it will be deal between two individuals." Chen Xiao replied.
"Between you and.... ?" Yu Shishi left the sentence incomplete for Chen Xiao to fill it.
"Between me and Moth Woman." Chen Xiao replied.
"Moth Woman?! Haha... don't tell me you also believe in that fairy tale. People spread these rumours to lure tourists and hunter here for business." Yu Shishi said in cold tone, collecting a large number of moths behind Chen Xiao.
"Seems like Moth Woman finally reveal herself." Chen Xiao said and moths rushed at Chen Xiao but got stopped by an invisible wall.
"Space Domain: Level 4" a compressed space envelope Yu Shishi and Chen Xiao cutting off them from outside world.
"What?! YOUUUU!" Yu Shishi almost went crazy because of anger when she failed to summon moths.
"Sign this or I will kill that beast who saved you." Chen Xiao threatened.
"YOUUUU WILL NOT TOUCH IT!" Yu Shishi roared and start feeding her soul to few of the present moths in attempt to kill Chen Xiao.
"Even if you kill me by sacrificing yourself. That big moth will be all alone and you very well know I'm not the only person after it." Chen Xiao try to reason, if Yu Shishi die now he will not get his Heaven Grade Seed.
"Youuu!" Yu Shishi finally calm down and fell on her knees.
"Here sign this." Chen Xiao give her a paper.
"Dark Contract" Yu Shishi muttered but she still sign the contract after reading that Chen Xiao will not hurt Moon Moth and her unless they attack Chen Xiao first and Yu Shishi comply with his unwritten demands. After signing, the contract burnt by black flames and disappeared.
"Good" Chen Xiao said with smile and disperse the 'Space Domain'.
"Level 1 Blink: Single"
AFTER 3 MONTHS(9.3B, PLS2'25'87)
My Chaos and Space Elements are now at Level 5 and my mental strength is at Level 7. I can't be anymore ready than this. So, I'm attempting to breakthrough in Three Step Tower.
AFTER 1 WEEK
"Come on, I'm spending a precious Heavenly Vein, a Stone of Will and several other materials on you. You must not let me down. I even give you Blessing of God's Seal. You must grow into Cosmos. Lightning Galaxy grew into Lightning Cosmos several months ago. Do you want to left behind? No, then already grow into Chaos Cosmos." Chen Xiao is on the verge of losing his mind, Chaos Element is not showing even a slightest improvement.
AFTER 2 WEEKS(6B, PLS2'25'87)
"Hahaha... You little bastard, you scare the crap out of me." Chen Xiao laughed in joy, his Chaos Element is finally at Super Tier and his mental strength is at Level 7.5.
"Now it's time to pay Yu Shishi a visit." Chen Xiao said fly off towards the forest.
"Level 1 Blink: Single" Chen Xiao teleported in the forest near Fanxue Mountain.
"What do you want now?" Yu Shishi asked in anger. She has recently recover from her last fight with a Fire mage and have started living here.
"Heaven Grade Lightning Seed." Chen Xiao said.
"How?" Yu Shishi asked in disbelief this was her biggest secret and now it is known to Chen Xiao.
"Just know, so what materials will I be needing for forging one?" Chen Xiao asked.
"Huuu... 10 Soul Grade Lightning Seeds, lots of Lightning Element materials, some treasures but I can't guarantee you success." Yu Shishi said in disdain, she have investigated Chen Xiao's background and he is from normal family and doesn't have money to buy even a single Soul Grade Seed.
"Here" Chen opened his subspace and 10 Soul Grade Seeds, lots of Pentagon Lightning Stars, Pharoah Spring, Fundamental Lightning Crytals appeared.
"This... how did you knew about materials." Yu Shishi's eyes almost bulged out, not many people can't
"I asked a forge master specialized in refining Soul Grade Seeds. Now start the process and don't dare to cheat me otherwise contract will do it's work." Chen Xiao threatened.
"So what additional effects you want?" Yu Shishi asked while analysing the materials.
"What are my options?" Chen Xiao asked.
"Either you can upgrade you existing Soul Grade Seed's additional effects to Heaven Grade or I can add new ones." Yu Shishi said.
"I want to upgrade my the 'Buzz', 'Lightning Beast', 'Lightning Cloud' and want to add 'Paralzing Effect' which stack with time." Chen Xiao replied.
"Sorry but with these materials, it is not possible to refine Greater Heaven Grade Lightning Seed. At best Medium Grade Lightning Seed with the multiplier of 25 and three additional effects." Yu Shishi said.
"Doesn't matter start the process." Chen Xiao said.
AFTER 2 WEEKS(6B, PLS'15'87, 2SGLS)
"Phew~ now don't dare to ask me for anything else, at least for few months." Yu Shishi said, too exhausted from the refining.
"I would have rewarded you if not for you trying to exhaust all the materials with very less chances of success. Thanks to that forging master who explained me refining process, I avoid losing a fortune. And I will come back for upgrading my Medium Heaven Grade Seed to Greater Heaven Grade Seed." Chen Xiao said.
"I didn't tried to cheat you, your Soul Grade Seed and those... right Pentagon Lightning Stars were very high quality materials. Using all of them together wouldn't have failed the process." Yu Shishi explained. She doesn't want to make Chen Xiao angry, his strength has now increased tremendously. It would be best for her to keep friendly ties with him.
