Godly Revival System: I Buy My Killer's Stats
Chapter 369 - 369: Azuron: The Nature Spirit of the Azure Serpent Realm

Inside the dream-like realm that was filled with Azure Essence, Ethan's consciousness was floating and opposite to him, there was a tiny Azure Snake.

It hovered in mid-air and its body was translucent, perfectly blending into the vast, dream-like realm filled with Azure Essence.

'Hiss~Master Cultivator, can you please help me?'

The tiny Azure Snake asked for Ethan's help while flickering its forked tongue.

When this Azure Snake spoke, its shimmering scales glowed faintly with flowing runes of ancient azure light.

'T-this…Who are you?'

During his first enlightenment, Ethan became a Lightning Ape; however, now, instead of becoming an Azure Snake, it was speaking to him.

So, of course, he was shocked.

'Hiss~Master Cultivator, my name is Azuron and I am the Nature Spirit of the Azure Serpent Realm.'

The tiny Azure Snake spoke again in a tone that was polite and somewhat… nervous?

'The… Nature Spirit?'

Ethan was shocked, and it took him a moment to process what he had just heard.

He was expecting enlightenment by watching the evolution process of the Twin-Headed Azure Snake and awakening a Bloodline or a Special Skill like before.

But never in his wildest imagination did Ethan think that the Nature Spirit would appear in the middle of his enlightenment and would speak to him directly.

And not just that—it even asked him for help?

'This is great. I was searching for the Nature Spirit for all this while and now, it has finally appeared.'

Soon, his shock turned into excitement because he had been waiting for the Nature Spirit of the Azure Serpent Realm for some time now.

However, once he controlled his excitement and processed the Nature Spirit's words, Ethan was confused at Azuron's words.

'W-what kind of help does the Nature Spirit want from me?'

Although Nature Spirits are born from the will of the Secret Realm, Ethan learned they are not almighty.

Especially after his encounter with Primor, the Nature Spirit of the Primordial Beast Realm, Ethan knew that if the Secret Realm started dying, the Nature Spirit would also die with it.

But, the thing is, unlike the Primordial Beast Realm that was corroded by the corpse of the Demonic Blood Dragon before turning into the Berserk Beast Realm, the Azure Serpent Realm was perfectly fine.

Thus, Ethan asked Azuron about its problem.

'Master Cultivator, can you please help me complete the final step of my birth?'

Azuron's voice was soft, a bit hesitant, because it was afraid of being rejected.

As a Nature Spirit that was yet to be born, it was the first time it was able to communicate with someone.

So, of course, Azuron was hesitant and worried regarding Ethan's rejection.

'Complete the final step of your birth?'

Ethan frowned slightly and didn't respond immediately.

Instead, he stared at the tiny Azure Snake floating opposite him in the sea of Azure Essence, trying to understand its words.

'Hiss~'

Azuron slowly nodded its little head with its eyes glowing with pure azure light and explained:

'Hiss~I gained my consciousness 1,000 years ago when the Realm's evolution reached a critical point. However, to fully be born as a true Nature Spirit, I require at least another 1,000 years of accumulation… unless I receive external aid.'

Ethan's gaze flickered as he quietly listened to the tiny Azure Snake.

'So… this Nature Spirit… is still in the process of forming?'

After hearing everything, Ethan was surprised, but more than that, he felt something stir in his chest.

'No wonder, my previous attempts and efforts to attract the Nature Spirit didn't work, not because they are useless; instead, the Nature Spirit was not yet born.'

Recalling all his efforts, Ethan bitterly smiled.

'So that so-called plan of mine… was built on a false premise.'

He looked at Azuron, which was still translucent, and finally, he understood everything.

'So, this Azure Serpent Realm… is still young.'

According to Azuron's words, the Azure Serpent Realm existed for more than a thousand years in the cultivation world; however, when it came to the lifespans of Secret Realms and their Nature Spirits, it was merely a child.

Just a seedling that had yet to bloom fully.

At the same time, Ethan recalled what he learned from Primor, the Nature Spirit of the Primordial Beast Realm.

Primor told him that Secret Realms age like living beings—slowly and with meaning.

A 10,000-year-old Secret Realm is considered mature, and the Primordial Beast Realm was a mature Secret Realm that was older than 20,000 years.

A 100,000-year-old Secret Realm is considered middle-aged, and Heavenly Items started forming inside it.

And only those that have sustained for more than 1,000,000 years are considered truly old, possessing terrifying inheritances, deep secrets, and fully-formed Nature Spirits with great wisdom and power.

They are also called Ancient Secret Realms.

So, compared to those realms… the Azure Serpent Realm was still in its growing phase.

And Azuron—this timid yet proud little Azure Snake—was not yet fully born.

'No wonder… There is a restriction on the Cultivator's Cultivation to enter the Azure Serpent Realm. It is to protect not just the Spirit Beasts inside the Realm but also to protect the Secret Realm itself.'

Ethan exhaled slowly.

The rule where Golden Core Realm Cultivators should not enter the Azure Serpent Realm was made by the Azure Serpent Leaders; however, the Azure Serpent Realm itself stopped any Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator from entering it.

Because there are no Spirit Beasts strong enough to go against the Nascent Soul Realm Cultivators.

The pieces were finally falling into place, making Ethan nod his head in understanding.

'Hiss~ I don't know why I was able to communicate with you, and how long this communication will last. My only hope to speed up my birth is you, Master Cultivator. Will you help me?'

Azuron then spoke again, its voice laced with hope.

'I thought Primor's case was an exception. I didn't expect that all Nature Spirits would need help from the cultivators.'

Ethan looked at the spirit with a complicated gaze.

He had always imagined the Nature Spirits as mighty, towering entities hidden behind veils of mystery. But, not only had Primor asked for his help, but even this yet-to-be-born Nature Spirit was also asking for his help.

'Of course, Nature Spirits can't ask for help from any random cultivator. They ask the ones who they feel are reliable and kind-hearted with as little bloodshed on their hands.'

Since Ethan has just revived, he has basically no bloodshed on his hands.

He also meets other requirements to attract the Nature Spirits, and most importantly, he is covered in Heavenly Luck now.

'So in the end… the one I tried to attract… is now asking to be born with my help.'

Without any delay, Ethan's eyes became firm as he agreed, 'Fine. I'll help you, Azuron.'

'Hiss~T-thank you, Master Cultivator… I won't forget this!'

Hearing Ethan's words, Azuron's tiny body trembled for a second before glowing even more brightly with Azure Essence.

'However,...'

[A new mission, [Father of the Nature Spirit] has been generated. Please check it for more details.]

Just when Ethan was about to add a condition for his help, he received a system notification related to Azuron.

'.....How can I speed up the process for your birth.'

After seeing the rewards, Ethan no longer bothered to add any conditions for his help; instead, he asked how he could help it.

'Hiss~It is simple, Master Cultivator. I need...'

'What?'

Hearing Azuron's words, Ethan was thoroughly shocked.
