Legendary Battle Pet

Through their conversation, Ethen could sense that Azrul was not only deeply passionate and committed to pharmaceuticals but also highly talented in the field.

If he were to truly take on this disciple and eventually teach him everything from the "Beast Taming's Alchemy," wouldn't he risk exposing himself in the process?

He couldn't afford to accept this disciple. But then, he considered that if Azrul genuinely became his disciple, he would surely present a generous gift upon their meeting.

Judging by Azrul's willingness to spend tens of millions of Alliance Credits just to meet him, it was clear that this disciple would not be stingy towards him.

In this case, if I timely express interest in the "Profound Spirit Fruit" and "Azure Water Heart," the difficulty of obtaining these two items will greatly decrease. For a moment, Ethen found himself in a dilemma.

"Hmph, I, Ethen, am not the type to casually accept disciples just to acquire treasures. That would be underestimating me too much!"

Ethen clenched his fists, making up his mind.

...

One minute later, Ethen sat upright in his chair, watching as his newly accepted disciple performed the formal ceremony of apprenticeship.

"In truth, I was reluctant to take on a disciple, but Azrul is just too enticing, too irresistible!" Ethen thought to himself with a joyful expression.

Faced with a disciple who held the key resources for Blux's upgrade, even he couldn't resist the allure.

"Master!"

"Good disciple!"

After an earnest and heartfelt exchange of teacher student affection, Ethen subtly mentioned his need for the "Profound Spirit Fruit" and "Azure Water Heart."

Upon hearing Ethen's request, Azrul immediately stated that their ling family business had a very limited supply of "Profound Spirit Fruit" and "Azure Water Heart," and expressed his willingness to offer the "Azure Water Heart" as a gift for becoming a disciple.

The filial piety of his disciple moved Ethen. He quickly probed Azrul about why he hadn't offered the Profound spirit Fruit as part of the apprenticeship gift.

Azrul explained, "Because my father has entered a life or death seclusion and won't emerge until he makes a breakthrough. He treasures the Profound Spirit Fruit and keeps it with him, so I cannot acquire it."

So it was about a life or death seclusion!

Upon hearing this, Ethen understood and immediately asked, "How long do you estimate your father will remain in seclusion?"

"That's uncertain. But before he went into seclusion, he mentioned that it could be as little as two years or as long as ten," Azrul replied truthfully.

Hearing this, Ethen felt utterly deflated. After finally managing to secure a disciple and with his dreams within reach, Azizul Ling, who possessed the Profound Spirit Fruit, had gone into seclusion.

And for such a long duration. The thought that Azizul Ling would be in seclusion for at least two years gave Ethen a headache. He couldn't possibly wait foolishly for Azizul Ling to emerge, as by then, it would be too late.

Thus, Ethen expressed his urgent need for the Profound Spirit Fruit and asked Azrul if he knew of any other sources for it.

"As far as I know, my father's Profound Spirit Fruit was obtained years ago from a girl named 'Juliana Joly.' She cultivated a Profound Spirit Fruit tree. Although the Ling family and Juliana Joly have not been in contact for many years, I estimate that she is still within the vicinity of the Kosaka base."

Juliana Joly?

Hearing this, Ethen's interest was piqued. He vowed that no matter what, he must find this Juliana Joly. Blux must evolve!

For the sake of Blux, Ethen was willing to pay any price. Immediately, he instructed Azrul to leverage the Ling family's influence to diligently search for Juliana Joly.

Although the clues to the Profound Spirit Fruit still needed to be uncovered, the Azure Water Heart was within the Ling family.

Thus, Ethen, accompanied by Azrul, prepared to head to the Ling Family Chamber of Commerce to retrieve the Azure Water Heart.

The two of them engaged in casual conversation as they walked out of the hotel lobby. At the hotel entrance. Seeing the new sign, Ethen was utterly stunned. He staggered, nearly falling over.

Master Residents?

The hotel's new name was actually Master Resident!

...

In an underground warehouse of the Ling Family Chamber of Commerce. Azrul solemnly handed a small square box to Ethen. Ethen accepted the box and opened the lid.

A beam of golden light shot out from the box.

It was only after half a minute that the golden light slightly subsided, revealing the treasure inside.

This gem, shaped like a droplet, was indeed the Azure Water Heart. Ethen had finally obtained the treasure he had long dreamed of.

"Master, are you satisfied?" Azrul looked at Ethen ingratiatingly.

"Very satisfied, extremely satisfied. You've done very well."

Ethen was overjoyed, immediately praising Azrul.

Receiving Ethen's praise, Azrul felt as if he had tasted honey sweet and delightful.

Late that night, Azrul received intelligence that Juliana Joly was currently residing in a very remote village within the Kosaka Base.

Upon receiving the news, Azrul was extremely excited and immediately reported the matter to Ethen. Ethen was pleasantly surprised at how quickly they had found information on Juliana Joly's whereabouts.

The two of them discussed and decided to set off that very night, driving to find Juliana Joly. Driving swiftly, they left Heishui Town behind.

After more than six hours of navigating winding mountain roads, they finally saw a small village nestled deep within the mountains.

"This should be it."

Azrul looked at the map and then observed the surrounding environment. He confidently said to Ethen, who was sitting in the passenger seat, "This is it, Shuangshui Village!"

"Yes," Ethen nodded. The two parked the car by the roadside and then began walking towards the village.

The road from the mountain road to the village was rugged and unsuitable for vehicles, so they chose to proceed on foot.
