Void Evolution System

Walking down the streets of the sect, the girls took their time to enjoy the view. The peaceful atmosphere here was something they particularly liked, and due to the fact that they had only recently joined the sect, they didn't have to worry about any conflict.

Not to mention, neither of them had accepted a master yet. It wasn't that they were picky about it or that no elder was interested in them, it was just that the number of geniuses who joined the sect during this disciple examination was too great.

This led the elders to take careful consideration of their choices of disciple. The competition was especially fierce. However, none of the girls fought each other during this vetting process. They didn't want to make a bad impression on their potential teachers.

When the girls reached the mission hall, they went straight to the section indicating mid-level missions. Rose didn't particularly need to partake in anything like this yet, but she wanted to support Elena.

The two had decided to stick together even when they were apart from Damien, who was the main connection point between them. They were stronger this way, and the bond they had forged in the almost full year they had known each other wasn't shallow.

While looking over the missions, however, they couldn't find anything interesting enough to grab their attention.

=== 

Kill a Tyrant Hawk and bring back its egg.

Location: Xuan Mountain Range

Strength required: Elemental Comprehension Realm

Reward: 300 Spirit Stones.

===

Kill a Venomous Eclipse Snake and bring back its poison sack.

Location: Xuan Mountain Range

Strength required: Core Formation Realm

Reward: 600 Spirit Stones.

===

The missions relating to beasts all had the same premise of killing the beast and bringing back a certain item or ingredient in its possession. While these were an easy source of spirit stones for them, it wasn't their goal.

Elena was infinitely close to reaching 3rd class, with her level being 95, but a single beast wouldn't do the job. Even if she could stay within the Xuan Mountain Range and hunt other beasts to reach her goal, she wanted to maximize the benefits.

Feeling curious, Elena went over to the section for major missions. These were much more riveting and even captured her excitement.

She saw some missions that had to do with overthrowing coupes and even saw the one Damien took in the Northern Continent to eliminate a wicked sect. However, these weren't the ones that caught her eye.

===

Aid the Yulong province in repelling a large beast tide plaguing its citizens.

Location: Yulong Province

Strength required: Core Formation Realm

Reward: 1000 Spirit Stones.

===

'A beast tide is perfect.' Elena thought. Not only would there be a plethora of experience for her to gain, but she would also get a much larger amount of spirit stones than any mid-level mission would provide.

Tearing the paper off the board, Elena met back up with Rose and showed it to her, who naturally had no reason to refuse.

"Alright, this mission will be taken by others as well, so we won't reserve it for you. However, your participation has been accepted. A fairy will accompany you as a guide, so be sure to meet her on your way out of the sect.

After getting the stamp of approval from a Mission Hall Elder, the girls left the premises.

The Supreme Fairy Paradise didn't just get its name from the all-women nature of the sect. It was also due to the fairies they shared their home with.

These fairies tended to be playful and carefree within the jungle area, but they were a completely different beast outside.

Their small stature and delicate appearance have fooled many a greedy cultivator who has tried to capture them, but their power wasn't a joke by any means.

The fairy race was inherently close with nature, and mana is as natural as one could get. Due to this, even the weakest fairies were created at the Elemental Comprehension Realm.

That's right, fairies weren't born, they were created. There was no way for a race that strictly bore females to conceive in the first place. Instead, fairies were born through natural accumulation of nature mana and plant life.

For example, the fairies that shared their home with the Supreme Fairy Paradise were representatives of the towering trees that made up the jungle. 

Trees were odd beings even in a mana-filled world. Even plants could gain human form if they cultivated to the appropriate level, but it wasn't like that for trees. 

They could gain sentience, but due to their unusual natural life span, the process was extremely slow. Besides that, trees were stationary and without the ability to gain experience naturally.

Plants could become carnivorous, or take advantage of the symbiotic relationship they had with animals and bugs to gain experience, however, trees didn't have this privilege. 

Still, they were able to maintain their standing among the population of sentient flora due to their ability to project consciousness onto other beings. In this case, the fairy race became their representatives.

As the fairies grew in cultivation, the trees would grow with them, and as the trees passively absorbed mana and converted sunlight into mana, the fairies' mana pools would increase.

It was a true symbiotic relationship. 

The Supreme Fairy Paradise also did what it could to protect the ecosystem that was cultivated in this jungle. It was the reason the entire place lacked beasts, the only creatures besides their population being regular animals.

The fairies weren't ungrateful, so they also helped the sect. With the relationship spanning since the origin of the sect, the bond these fairies had with the maidens of the sect was generally unbreakable.

There was even precedence of a maiden and fairy becoming close enough to form an equal contract like the one Damien and Zara had. In this way, they would become the closest one could be without sharing an intimate relationship.

Being guides and protectors for the disciples that left the sect was also something the fairies took upon themselves. The Core Formation and Expansion realm fairies tended to take this job, as the ones in the Law Connection and Law Sea stages actually had the option of gaining an elder or advisor position within the sect itself.

A day quickly passed by as the girls made their way to the entrance of the sect. Once there, a shining light rushed in front of them.

When the light died down a bit, the figure within was revealed. This small fairy had shining blonde hair and green eyes, almost looking like a miniaturized elf.

"Hello, girls! My name is Dia!" The fairy said while happily fluttering around them.

"The mana around you is so excited! You must be special people!" 

The girls couldn't help but smile, infected by her cheerful attitude. 

"My name is Rose and this is Elena, we'll be happy to work with you on this mission."

Día smiled happily as they continued talking, leaving the premises of the sect. However, they didn't end up in the same jungle, instead being teleported to a random location.

As the girls continued chatting with Dia, they made their way to the location of the beast tide.
