Khal stared at the words before his eyes with a nonchalant expression before he nodded with a satisfied nod.
Out of the three daily quests he has done 2 successfully and now only one remained, which he hoped he could do once he arrives at the Fiery Grasslands with Liza.
\'Even though I couldn\'t hunt for Beasts this time as these tasks took more time than the previous ones, I am still satisfied as my strength improved once again.\' Khal smiled as he took a quick glance at his Cultivator Status.

Out of the seven traits, four increased by one which maybe seemed little, but the amount of strength and boost they have given to him could be considered tremendous!
Right now, if he wished to he could easily run a single mile under a bit more than a minute without any Secret Art, and if he used one, that amount immediately decreased to a mere few seconds!
Furthermore, now he can easily punch fist-sized holes into steel walls, indicating that his physical strength has indeed exploded above the normal level among all Cultivators in the First Realm!
Maybe not even a Cultivator with a Body Refining Talent had such a huge amount of physical strength like him, but until he didn\'t try to fight with one, he won\'t know it for sure.
\'Just a bit more than a single week and I have reached such terrifying heights... Can\'t wait to see what my level will be in a few more months!\' thought Khal as he leaned against the wall behind his back and closed his eyes, dozing slightly off and enjoying the cold breeze on his face.
Khal waited about half an hour before his eyes gradually opened and glanced at the side where a figure approached him with a smile on her delicate face while her nice and flawless figure together with the majestic crimson beast on her shoulder attracted many gazes with each of her steps.
"Ready?" Khal asked as he stepped away from the wall and watched that Liza and Rubie seemed to get closer to each other in such a short amount of time.
"Yeah, let\'s go." Liza nodded and with Khal on her side began to walk away while starting to chat with him spiritedly.
However, even though Khal showed her that he was listening and acting calm, inside his guard was raised as he noticed that they were followed by the same man who lurked around him yesterday.
\'So he decides to follow me everywhere, huh?\' thought Khal as he watched a man among the darkness of the trees in that far distance following them.
In fact, he followed him even during his time completing his Cultivation Quests, but as he found out he was only observing him and had no intention of killing him, he let it be.
Furthermore, he let him be because if he decided to attack him or show him he already knew about him that would only make his situation even worse as the suspicion on him would only grow for sure. That is why, until he decided not to cause any trouble for him nor Liza, he will just simply ignored him.

After walking for hours and even killing a few weak Beasts that Khal let to give both Liza and Rubie, the three finally arrived at the Fiery Grasslands where the sight changed from peacefulness to sheer chaos!
Until this very moment, Khal walked in a vast green field with bushes and trees in the distance, but all of that was changed abruptly as the green grasses became yellow while in a few places the ground was cracked with lava flowing in them. Even the trees in the distance were without leaves, some even scorched ash black because of the heat and lava around them!
"So this is the Fiery Grasslands, huh? It is indeed fiery, to say the least." Khal expressed his thoughts while he gazed at the amazing sight before him.
Liza looked the same but soon she raised her hand and pointed to the left, "Let\'s go that way."
"Sure."
Sometime later, the two arrived before this extremely long and wide river of lava, where a huge creature made out of rock stood motionlessly at its other side.
"T-That is a Rock Golem? It\'s huge!" Liza stared at the beast before her at the other side of the lava river, her mouth slightly opened because of the shock.
The Rock Golem was just like a miniature mountain, more than twenty meters in height and almost ten meters in width. Its body was made out of pure and solid rock, while its face held no facial features such as eyes, nose, mouth, or ears.
Liza remained silent for a while before her eyes turned sharp and her expression became serious.
"Luckily it\'s still on the Fifth Cultivation Stage, so I can still take care of it with my power."
"Then I will stay behind and help when you say so." said Khal as he took a step back before adding, "But I think you will be perfectly fine if you watch the signs I have told you on the way here."
Liza hearing this nodded and without any further ado, she waved her hand.
Swish!
BAM!
With a slight explosion from her palm, the flowing lava before her got frozen with azure jade-like ice, while the surrounding lava and ground gradually turned frosty and hard because of the sudden drop of temperature!
However, the very moment this happened, the Rock Golem on the other side also stood up, causing a small tremor in the surroundings just with a single step of its feet alone!
TREMBLE!
