Greg Jensen laughed, “Let’s deal with the evil energy first; after that’s done, we can chat at leisure.”
“Alright, thank you, Master Xu.”
“No need to be so polite between us.”
Lukas Simon accompanied Greg Jensen to the edge of the evil energy, and then stopped, saying gravely,
“Master Xu, I know you are extremely powerful, but I still hope you will be careful.”
Greg Jensen felt a touch of warmth in his heart and smiled, “Don’t worry, I will be fine.”
After saying this, he nodded toward Elijah Hall standing beside him and then turned to walk into the dense fog.
As he watched Greg Jensen’s figure gradually engulfed by the fog, Lukas Simon couldn’t help but look serious and sighed, “I hope Master Xu can completely clear the evil energy this time.”
Thinking of the soldiers who had died in the past few days, Elijah Hall said firmly, “I believe Master Xu will be able to do it.”
…
As Greg Jensen walked into the dense fog, he could clearly feel that the evil energy was denser than last time, and it contained something indescribable and unclear.
The evil energy around him seemed alive, pulsing rhythmically like a heart.
Although the pulsations were very slight, they did not escape Greg Jensen’s acute six senses.
Greg Jensen didn’t think too much, deciding to first enter the cave to cultivate using the evil energy for a while.
After all, cultivating here was much faster than at East Peak Manor, rivaling Dual Cultivation, yet with more endurance.
At the Foundation Establishment Realm, one could practice Fasting; in theory, as long as Greg Jensen could maintain his meditation, it was equivalent to constant Dual Cultivation.
The speed of it, you can imagine.
Not wanting to miss such a good opportunity, Greg Jensen walked into the cave, found a flat area, and sat down to cultivate.
The Guidance Technique slowly started up, and the mana inside him flowed through his meridians.
The surrounding evil energy quickly gathered towards Greg Jensen, forming a breeze in the blink of an eye.
Greg Jensen sat cross-legged, calming his mind and spirit, focusing on controlling the mana inside his body.
In the cave just next to him, a life force slowly spread out, sensing the disturbance in the evil energy, its pulsing rate gradually increased.
Subsequently, the surrounding evil energy also started pulsing and began to contract towards it.
The contraction of the evil energy wasn’t fast, but Greg Jensen still noticed the anomaly, feeling as though someone was competing with him for the evil energy.
He subconsciously sped up the operation of the Guidance Technique; the evil energy that had been shared with the intruder was once again pulled back by him.
In the time that followed, it was like a tug-of-war, back and forth, with the evil energy rapidly dissipating.
After an indeterminate amount of time, Greg Jensen slowly opened his eyes, a fleeting glint in them, and a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth.
Congratulations were in order, his cultivation had greatly improved.
Continuing to cultivate at this speed, he believed it wouldn’t take long to reach the peak of Foundation Establishment.

By then, he could look for the opportunity to prepare for Core Formation.
Greg Jensen stood up and shook his body, dust falling from his clothes.
Only then did he notice that the once-thick evil energy had now become frail as paper, leaving just a thin layer lingering in the air.
Greg Jensen took a deep breath, engulfing the surrounding evil energy as if a whale swallowing water, and then operated the Guidance Technique to transform it into mana.
With the evil energy swept away, a bright ray of sunshine came shining through from outside the cave, adding a touch of warmth to the dark grotto.
Greg Jensen turned to look at the stone door and then walked out of the cave.
Calculating the time, more than ten days had passed. He planned to first get in touch with the manor to see if there were any issues.
Stepping out of the cave, he saw Lukas Simon accompanied by Elijah Hall standing guard there, with a large group of soldiers standing behind them, all craning their necks and peering inside.
“Master Xu has come out!”
“Master Xu!”
The crowd surged forward as Greg Jensen emerged, their faces lit with excitement, bombarding him with questions clamorously.
“Enough, shut up, all of you! What are you acting like!” Elijah Hall turned around and scolded them, and the soldiers immediately fell silent.
Lukas Simon stepped forward and asked, “Master Xu, does this mean the dark energy will never reappear now that it has been cleared?”
Greg Jensen shook his head, “I’ve only cleared the dark energy on the perimeter. As for the specific situation, I need to enter the cave inside to have a look before saying more.”
“Oh.”
Lukas Simon’s face fell slightly in disappointment, “Regardless, thank you, Master Xu.”
“No need for formalities, Brother Lukas.”
Greg Jensen offered a smile and said, “Arrange a place for me to rest, I need to recuperate for one night, and I’ll enter the cave first thing tomorrow.”
“Of course.”
Lukas Simon hastily turned and ordered, “Elijah Hall, quickly arrange a barracks for Master Xu. Also, let the kitchen know to prepare some hearty dishes. Tonight, I plan to have a good drink with Master Xu.”
The barracks must have been prepared in advance, the conditions within were much better than a regular barracks; there was not only a soft large bed but also a bathroom system.
After taking a shower, Greg Jensen called Carmen Stuart to inquire about the situation at East Peak Manor.
Learning that everything was normal, he also asked about the newly established East Peak Group.
The East Peak Group had been created, but the handover of industries was progressing slowly. Next, they would have to go through industry integration, which he estimated would take at least a year to complete.
“That’s all then, I’ll hang up. I must go into seclusion for a while now, if there’s anything, just text me.”
“Alright.”
Carmen Stuart responded, then suddenly remembered something and hurriedly said, “Boss, Miss Samantha Adams from Mystic City came by looking for you on important business.
When she learned you were in seclusion, she said she would send you a message, I’m not sure if you received it.”
“Samantha Adams?”
Greg Jensen paused for a moment, “Got it, I’ll check it later.”
After hanging up the phone, he scrolled through his messages and indeed found one from Samantha Adams.
The message’s content was simple: it informed Greg Jensen that Robin Hayes had hired mercenaries, preparing to make a move against him.
Greg Jensen replied with a message of thanks and then set his phone aside.
Mercenary matters were taboo and could bring about disaster if exposed, so Robin Hayes would only target Greg Jensen personally, definitely not harming anyone else.
As long as others were fine, Greg Jensen really wasn’t worried about the so-called mercenaries.
He rested in the room for a while, then went to the dining room to drink and chat with Lukas Simon.
Mentioning the dark energy, a hint of weariness crept onto Lukas’s weathered face.
Greg Jensen smiled patiently as he explained the situation inside the cave and then promised that he would definitely help to remove the root of the dark energy. Only then did Lukas’s face break into a relieved smile.
After they had eaten their fill and had enough to drink, Greg Jensen returned to his room to rest for the night. Early the next morning, he entered the cave once more.
This time, he planned to go beyond the stone door and see what exactly lay inside, hoping to eliminate the source of the dark energy and resolve the issue once and for all.
